********** The Big Eight **********

Takara was eight. Kagome and Inuyasha figured they better explain to her how she is a demon. They thought that if they waited to long, she wouldn't understand what they were keeping her from. They told her now, so she would know.

"Takara, can you come in here for a second?" Kagome asked

"Yeah mom, hold on." She said with a shaking voice, like she was in trouble.

"We need to talk to you about something, your not in trouble." Inuyasha said, making sure she was ok.

"O ok then." Takara said running in the kitchen where her Mom and Dad were sitting at the table. "What is it?"

"We need to talk to you about why you are different." Kagome said; tearing.

"Mommy don't cry, I'm not different." She insisted

"Hunny see, you are different than most girls. You're a quarter demon." She said her eyes filled with water.

"Demon?" She asked wrinkling her eyes.

"Well see your father is half demon, that's why he has dog ears. Just like you do." She went on "We just don't want you to feel different, ok?"

"Ok mamma. I never felt different; people liked my dog ears now, since my friend stuck up for me and taught them a lesson!" She said shrugging your shoulders.

"What did she say?" Inuyasha asked.

"She said that they were cool, and if they didn't like them then they would have to deal with her." She said in attitude.

"That's not right Takara; you don't hurt people because they pick on you." Kagome went on looking mad. "You need to stop her."

"I tried mamma but she won't listen." She said, giving a lip.

"Well go run along and play so I can talk to your father." Kagome ordered.

"Ok mom." She walked outside with her head hanging low. She walked to the other side of the house and looked in the window. She thought it looked like her mom and dad were fighting.

About an hour later, Kagome and Inuyasha were getting worried because Takara never came in from outside. When they went out to look for her, they couldn't find her.

"TAKARA!" They called "TAKARA!"

They were searching and searching all around town. No sign of her anywhere. Kagome broke down crying on the grass, and couldn't move.

"Why did she leave us?" She cried "All I wanted to do was tell her the truth."

"I know, but where would she go?" Inuyasha insisted to act like her.

"...." Kagome didn't say anything, then let out a huge gasp.

"What is it?" Inuyasha demanded.

"Feu... Feu ... Feu..."

"What?"

"FUEDAL ERA!" She screamed.

~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~

They ran down to the well and jumped inside, over across the hill side, Takara was there crying with Sango comforting her.

"Takara!?!?" Kagome ran while crying.

"MOM?" She screamed. "What are you doing here?"

"You think we would forget about you? Why did you run off?" She said angrily. "We were worried sick."

"Kagome its ok, she saw you and Inuyasha fighting through the window and she thought it was about her." Sango told her, before she hit the roof. "So she came to tell me about it."

"We weren't fighting, ok we were. I'm sorry baby, come here." Kagome said with a tear, she hated seeing her daughter after she see her and Inuyasha fighting.

"Mamma I'm sorry, I was scared so I came to tell Aunt Sango." She said sitting on the ground with her head low. "Where is Daddy anyways?"

"I'm not sure, I'll find him, let's get you back home. It could be dangerous down here." She said running her to the well.

"Ok mamma." They went through the well and brought her home. Inuyasha was no where in sight, instead of leaving her daughter to go find him, like usual. She waited at least an hour, still no sign of him. ::Where is he?:: she thought, she was thinking it because she didn't want to scare Takara.

~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~

It was about 8:00, and still no sign of Inuyasha. Kagome's mom was on Vacation, and Kagome couldn't leave her alone.

"Takara time for bed." She said walking in the living room. "It's almost 8:00."

"Ok mommy." She ran right up stairs, "Mom," she called "Are you going to read me a story."

Kagome was worried about Inuyasha, but couldn't let her know. She went up stairs, about 10 minutes of a story, Takara fell right to sleep. Kagome went back down stairs where Inuyasha sit at the kitchen table.

"Inuyasha? Where have you been?" She said hugging him.

"Nothing big, I sensed something in the Era and it ended up being Naraku." He said struggling.

"As long as you are safe, I thought you were gone for good." As she kneeled down to his side. "I was worried."

"Well I'm ok, don't kid yourself." Staggering his breaths like he couldn't breathe.

"Inuyasha?" She jumped up, acting like he was dead.

"Sorry, just tired." He laughed, a little but it hurt.

"Let's get to bed." Kagome insisted, helping him upstairs.

They fell asleep; Inuyasha was ok, though he didn't act it. Kagome was worried, but she figured it was just Inuyasha being Inuyasha.

~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~

In the morning, Inuyasha felt a lot better. His breathing was normal, and he acted normal. Kagome was thinking about bringing Takara to the playground.

"Did you need to go to the Feudal Era today? Or are you free?" She wondered; with her elbow on the table, resting her head on her hand.

"I was going to go down why do you ask?" He said looking confused.

"I was going to bring Takara to the park, and I was wondering if you were staying home or not, no big reason." She went on "nothing at all."

"What are you hiding?" Raising his eyebrows.

"Nothing."

"SOMETHING IS WRONG!"

"Shhhh keep your voice down or it will happen again." She said clamping her hand over his mouth.

"What will happen" removing her hand.

"Takara ran away because she thought she saw us fighting over her. If she hears us fight then she will try to go back there and next time there might be danger!" She said rushing her words, not taking a single breath.

"You need to breath, just breath."
