Disclaimer: I DO NOT OWN Inuyasha ok? I only own my imagination and I hope you enjoy what I did with it.(

Author's Note:

Just to warn you Sesshumaru fans that in this fic (at least the first few chapters) he'll not be as arrogant, cold or detached as he usually is! {I love him in that manner yet for the plot of this fic I need him out of character a lil while K? Work with me here!} It'll all be righted in like bout four chapters. Bear with me ok?

*******************************************************

Inuyasha walked out of the family room with a new respect for his brother and a new friendship. A lot of truths had been revealed and as they walked out into their father's solar they kidded around with each other relating to Kagome funny stories of their childhood.

"OW!" Kagome called out as a sharp jab of pain ripped through her abdomen.

"What happened?" Inuyasha enquired in alarm.

"I think that our child is in a hurry to be out into this world kawaii!" Kagome whispered reassuringly as her water broke and Inuyasha hefted her into his arms and took her to his former room.

"Get the midwife!" Inuyasha dictated sending the household into frenzy. "Watashi ren'ai anata kawaii!"

"Watashi ren'ai anata kawaii!" Kagome whispered as she tried not to think of the pain that ripped through her. Inuyasha did their best to settle her in before being ushered out by the midwife who was short and fussy. She'd clucked something about males being only able to put a child into a woman and not good or ready for the birthing.

Inuyasha and Sesshumaru paced the room with their father and grandfather telling stories to pass the time. After what seemed like forever Inuyasha was allowed to see his family then the extended family was called upstairs to view mother and daughter.

"I named her Cinnamon due to her cinnamon colored eyes neither brown nor topaz just a mixture of both." Kagome stated proudly as Inuyasha held both mother and daughter in his arms.

"And her hair is like sa`to to sweeten her up!" Rin added softly.

"You're right sweetheart it's just like sugar sweetening cinnamon." Inutaishiou agreed hugging Rin to him as Sesshumaru looked on smiling as he'd finally gotten a family of his own.

Tania stood before her mirror staring at herself in shock at the news she'd just received. They were dead and nothing she could do about it. Her otoosan and okaasama: both in a fiery plane crash off the coast of Japan leaving her alone at the ripe old age of twenty-one. This is the existence you sent me to poppa? She asked the picture in the history book she'd found facts about her true father in.

He'd died not too long after he'd returned to Asia as kikiyo was going through one of her attacks on the villages searching for her. She knew exactly what Kikiyo wanted from her. Yet would never get.

"Ring!" the sound of the telephone jarred her depressed and cold state reminding her of the arrangements to be made. "Hello!" she answered as impartial as she could.

"Hey Tania I just heard! I'm so sorry!" the voice of her recent ex and it did her nothing.

"Yeah thanks! Well I gotta go so I'll call you later!" Tania whispered choking on tears she refused to cry.

"Sure! I'm here if ever you need me!"

"Ok thanks Nick! I appreciate that! Bye!" And with that she hung up and turned back to the pictures of her parents.

*Here in my heart there's a picture of us together forever unfaded and unbroken, wherever you are your love covers me. Forever more you'll be here in my heart *

The words of her favorite song by the group Plus1 came back to her as she thought of how all the pictures she'd kept of her family would be what she had to sustain herself. She was alone in the world with no one. She'd never felt so alone and empty. Yet no matter she would be okay and she would survive.

Sesshumaru stood beside the rubble that had been his brothers home. All that was left was ashes and smoke. He shouldn't have left.

"Lord it's been found that it was a demon attack set for your brother and his wife." Jaken reported solemnly. "Your family seems to have wanted to handle this one their selves."

Sesshumaru looked at the rubble then at the two beautiful girls beside him who were now his responsibility. He knew that whatever had been after their parents would be after them and also after him. It was time he changed tactics; instead of fighting fire with fire he'd fight it in a different way!

"Rin, Cinny! Come here!" He called out to the two girls who ran over closer to him.

"Where is everyone else oji?" Cinny asked.

"Doesn't matter now sweetheart! Just look at your oji's pretty talisman." Sesshumaru directed waving the chain back and forth before the girls hypnotically. They became entranced and Sesshumaru whispered a chant as old as time itself that blocked all their memories of that day and of their true parents. To them he was their otoosan and their okaasama had died. At the end of it he teleported them to the well where he cloaked their hanyou forms into their human forms as well as cloaking himself. He took one last look at his past then took them to the future.
