Author's notes: Oh wow…can it be true? Am I really writing this Fry-Chan? Ah what the hell yawn it's late…ok not totally late, but late for me, and I am suffering from a slight creative slump. (After having a brief discussion with Fry-Chan, I don't like saying writer's block any more ) Anyways, thank you everyone with your comments, and I am aware that Inu is an ass.

Bye Bye, Baby!
Chapter seven

"Ok, so, if there are any problems, you know Mommy's number right?" Kagome asked worriedly as she looked Moriko in the eye. Moriko nodded enthusiastically and her smile lit up the room. Kagome, still apprehensive to leave her daughter and the sadistic child with the man she didn't like at all. Moriko kept nodding as Hikari stood in the background, nodding as well. Inu yasha leaned against the door jam as he watched the exchange between mother and daughter. "If Inu yasha so much as touches you, you tell me ok?" Moriko yet again nodded. "If he touches the phone, tell me," another nod, "If he inflicts pain on you or Hikari. If he touches anything that doesn't belong to him or if he leaves this apartment, I want you to call me then call 911 saying that a mean man is kidnapping you."

Moriko kept nodding, having blocked her mother's motherly speech out minutes ago.

"You'd actually let the police arrest me?" Inu yasha said in disbelief, Kagome lost a few respect points.

Kagome gave him an icy glare and answered the question without words. Inu yasha sighed softly and stood upright, walking towards the two children. "Ok then, I promise not to do anything to them, can you leave so I don't have to endure your nagging?"

Kagome scoffed silently before smiling at Moriko, who was still nodding enthusiastically. "Ok baby, I'm leaving now."

That seemed to snap Moriko from her reverie because she immediately stopped nodding and smiled at her mom. "Ok, Mommy! Bye! Me and Hikari and Inu yasha are going to have fun!" She waved after her mommy as she closed the door behind her.

Inu yasha waited until he heard the familiar squeaky step on the staircase before he grinned and flopped down on the couch. "Yes, finally she left!" He yawned and prepared himself to go to sleep.

At least that was the plan…oh no…things are never that easy when it involves two small children.

Hikari and Moriko were whispering among themselves, their little murmurs causing Inu yasha's eyebrow to twitch in annoyance. With a sigh Hikari shrugged and walked over towards Inu, who was spread out on the couch. With a swift jump, she landed on his stomach, successfully knocking the wind out of him, and he thanked whatever god was out there that she hadn't 'gone south'.

"So…" Hikari said once Inu yasha regained his breath, "Moriko tells me you're an actor."

"…Yes," he said uneasily, unsure of where the girl was heading to in this conversation.

"Are you on TV right now?"

"…Not at this moment."

"Really? That's lame…how about a play or a movie?" She asked, and Inu yasha felt like he was having an interview with Donald Trump: in other words he was fucking nervous. This girl was insane and creepy…

"I'm finding my center at this moment, so I'm taking a break," Inu yasha tried to sound nonchalant.

"So you're not acting?" Hikari said after a pause.

"Not right now," Inu yasha said, his annoyance evident in his voice.

Hikari gave Inu yasha her deadpan look and scoffed, "How can you be an actor when you're not acting? Moriko take notes, this is most interesting."

"But I don't have a pencil or paper," Moriko protested, "And I can't write big words yet!"

Hikari sighed, "Incompetence, that's what it is here, and it's not my fault."

She then jumped off Inu yasha's stomach, succeeding once again in knocking out his air supply and strolled out of the room, leaving Inu yasha wondering how she even knew that word.

Kagome yawned as she walked down the stairs towards Sango's car. Having told Sango about the Kouga incident and then the Inu yasha disaster, Sango decided it would be best for Kagome to have a night on the town. Kagome really hadn't done such a thing since the birth of Moriko, having always to watch her or something like that. She really felt uneasy leaving Inu yasha with her daughter and the kid who had an indirect relation with Donald Trump…it just made her stomach turn.

As she left the building, Sango waved to her from her car and Kagome walked towards her with a smile on her face. She had told Moriko to call the police if Inu yasha did anything, and Moriko was a smart kid so she had no doubt that her daughter would call her if Inu yasha did something perverted or sickening.

As she opened the door to the car, Sango started the engine. "Hi Sango," Kagome said as she buckled her seatbelt and sat back in the passenger's seat.

"Hey Kagome," Sango greeted, "Ready to go?"

"Yep."

Inu yasha looked longingly out the window was his last hope of humanity drove away with another girl. Dear god what he gotten himself into? He sighed as he felt the tugging of rope around him. Right, he was with the sadistic children from hell.

And you should never turn your back on those.

Hikari finished tying rope around Inu yasha as she sat motionless in a chair, a sock in his mouth. 'Well, at least it's clean,' he thought dryly.

"Moriko, come, its time to watch television," Hikari said happily. Well, as happy as this child could get…

Inu yasha twitched as he tried to yell something at them and then tried with all his might to untie the rope. But to no avail, the evil child must have snuck into a session of boy scouts, because he sure as hell wasn't getting out any time soon. He sighed.

Finally deciding to walk around, chair and all, he walked towards the door as a hunchback, the little midgets having forgotten to tie his shins to the legs of the chair and, with some difficulty, managed to squeeze through the doorway. Moriko and Hikari were seen watching something that they shouldn't be watching.

"Damn it! Whatever happened to Scooby Doo?" Inu yasha growled and the two kids jumped, not expecting Inu yasha to appear behind them.

Hikari, quickly regaining her composure, glared at Inu yasha and said crossly, "South Park is much better." Moriko nodded feebly, as though she was torn between two decisions. Inu yasha growled softly to him self and scrambled to find the remote control. "You know, for someone who supposedly works in the Entertainment Industry, you know very little about it."

"No South Park, Kagome would have my head," Inu yasha said as he imagined the girl coming at him with a butcher knife, he shivered at the thought.

Hikari growled and Inu yasha growled as well as they sent icy glares at one another. Moriko slinked away and pressed her self against the wall, nearly frightened to death at the scene before her. She was a very sensitive girl, after all. And before she could control her self: she started bawling.

"Now look what you did!"

That ended Inu yasha's glaring campaign and he frantically scrambled to Moriko as best he could without hitting him self in the head with the chair he'd been tied too. "Moriko, Moriko! Its ok, don't cry!" He hated seeing girls cry, especially a child who had a mother who could kill him with a butcher knife. "Come on its ok."

Moriko continued to cry.

"Come on, Hikari and I are done being mean," Inu yasha said ignoring Hikari's 'speak for your self' comment and smiling gently at Moriko. Moriko peeked at him through her blurry eyes and nodded weakly, running to Inu yasha and tucking herself under his chin, surprising Inu yasha.

"Awwww, it's a moment," Hikari said sarcastically, "Its so moving, I think that I'll go call Kagome and tell her all about it."

She made her way towards the phone but Inu yasha tripped her with his long feet and grabbed her with his empty arm, pulling her into a hug to keep her in place.

Hikari paled "Rape! Rape! I knew this would happen! I knew you were no more than another pedophile! All of you actors are!"
