Disclaimer: I do not own Inuyasha, its pretty obvious, and I cant think of anything witty to put right now.... Anyways... :: Throws Raman in cellar :: There you go Inuyasha eat up!
(OMG!)
Inuyasha and the rest of the group were on their way back to Kaede's. Shippo would be on Inuyasha's back about not protecting Kagome, and every body knew Inuyasha was not in the mood for that. In Sango's opinion he looked rather depressed. Miroku sighed again; he was probably in deep thought about what has happened.
With out warning Inuyasha collapsed on the ground. Miroku and Sango rushed to him to see if he was ok, he didn't get serious injuries in battle, he wasn't even bleeding. "Inuyasha?" she called.
"We should probably set up camp, he was probably so stressed that he just blacked out, I don't think its anything to worry about, besides we could use this time to relax a bit our selves. Sango looked up from her fallen friend and nodded to Miroku's idea.
After a few minutes camp was prepared. They set Inuyasha by a group of tree's to lie down, while they got the fire ready. Fortunately for them Kagome didn't bring her bag with her when she disappeared, so they decided to make Raman for Inuyasha when he wakes.
After a few more minutes they were disappointed when he didn't wake up. Their conversations died quickly every time a new one was started, leaving them with their thoughts. Sango heard noises in the bushes behind her and whipped around with her katana in hand. Before she could strike Shippo yelled out. "Don't hurt me!"
Sango relaxed and put her sword away, much to Shippo's relief. "So why are you here?" Miroku asked breaking the silence, Shippo looked back to Miroku and smiled. "Kaede said that the battle shouldn't of lasted this long, so I went looking for you, I followed the smell of Inuyasha's blood.
"What?!" Miroku and Sango yelled in union. This startled Shippo, but his reaction was ignored when they turned to see Inuyasha badly beaten, he had a gaping wound on his head, and his clothing was torn. He looked like some one ran out from the bushes and attacked him, and then ran away.
"But... He wasn't like this when we left him there" Sango whispered, more to herself than anyone. Miroku was thinking hard on what was happened, 'how the hell did this happen?' he mentally yelled, but stayed calm for Sango.
Shippo how ever was confused beyond belief, 'didn't they know he was hurt in battle?'I mean he was hurt in battle right? Oh my god this is confusing ::Sigh::'
"We have to bring him to Kaede, we have to figure out what's wrong with him" Sango sighed. How was she to know what was happening? Miroku nodded and began to pick up the hanyou with Sango's help. "Yeah maybe she can check out your guy's head while she's at it" Shippo murmured under his breath.
"What was that?" Miroku snapped. "Nothing! Nothing!" Shippo squeaked and ran in front.
(LOL)
Kagome knocked on the front door. Before long a woman with long dark hair answered and hurried Kagome inside her house. "Did you save him?" she asked leading Kagome into a room with a small cot. "Yes I did, he was being attacked by the villagers, my name is Kagome by the way" Kagome said as she laid Inuyasha on his 'bed'.
The woman smiled. "Hello Kagome, I'm Kie" (OMG I had no idea what to name her! I don't know any ones parent's names! Please tell me a better name!)
Kie smiled sadly, looking at her little boy. "his name is Inuyasha, I don't understand why they all pick on him, why cant they get the fact he has never hurt anyone before?" That comment was made more to herself than Kagome, Kagome was a little confused on weather or not to answer that. "I don't know either, he is a sweet little boy" Kagome commented.
Inuyasha started to shiver from his cot, which earned the attention of the two girls. Quickly Kie reached her little boy and hugged him tight. She touched his forehead and gasped loudly as she recoiled her fingers from his skin. "What's wrong?" Kagome asked, slowly walking to Kie and Inuyasha.
"Damn them, they gave him a fever again!" hissed Inuyasha's mother. Kagome was shocked and found she asking something that she figured she knew the answer to "what? I don't understand how" Kie smiled sadly. "They always hit him in the head, hoping to kill him, but every time it just messes up his brain functions and gets him sick, it's the only way he actually gets sick, really"
Kagome understood now, it was a vague explanation but she understood none-the-less. "Please, Kagome, could you watch him while I get some herbs? I don't have any to help him," Kie asked softly settling Inuyasha back on his cot. Kagome looked at him again before nodding to Kie's Question.
Kie grabbed her cloak and left with promises to return soon. Kagome turned back to Inuyasha who was still shivering pretty violently. With a sigh Kagome searched for something to keep him warm. She couldn't find anything really; expect a torn blanket in what looked to be his mother's room, but none in his own. Finally after a futile search she went back to the hanyou. His shivering stopped and he slowly opened his eyes to the world. The first thing he saw was Kagome in his home. This was good, his mother wouldn't be mad with Kagome around.
"How are you feeling?" she asked seeing he was awake. Inuyasha looked at her confused, so many questions ran through his head. "I'm ok, were is mom, why are you here? What happened?" Kagome gave him a warm smile. "Your mom ran out to get some herbs, and I brought you here after you were attacked." Kagome's tone was soft but sad.
"Oh" Inuyasha didn't think asking any more questions would be necessary. He sat up and held his spinning head, he resisted the urge to groan and flop down to sleep again, what a blissful thought, sleep. Kagome helped him sit up seeing he was debating on what to do in his head. "oh yeah!"Inuyasha yelled as of something just came back to him.
Kagome was confused but didn't interrupt. "are you ok?"he asked getting worried, "yes im fine, I can tell you are going to be a strong man when you grow up" Kagome insisted. Inuyasha gleamed, "just like my big brother!" At this Kagome seemed to get a warm feeling, then regret. He liked his brother now but what happened to make him hate him so?
Before they could say anything else between each other Kie walked in the room with a small sack of herbs in her hand. "oh good Inuyasha your awake" she sighed. Inuyasha turned to look at Kagome hoping she would never leave. When his medicine was prepared Inuyasha drank it with sorrow he knew Kagome would be leaving soon.
"Thank you Kagome I hope to see you again" Kie smiled and lead Kagome to the door. Kagome smiled one last time at Inuyasha and then Kie. She could see why Inuyasha liked her so much; she was so nice. No wonder he said he missed her when she would pry on his family life.
"say good bye Inuyasha" Kie told her son. "Good bye Inuyasha" Inuyasha laughed. Kagome giggled, but from the look Kie was giving Inuyasha he decided not to be witty this time "I mean, good bye Kagome, I hope you to see again!" with that he hugged her leg.
'I guess its better I'm leaving, I need to find a way to Inuyasha, the future Inuyasha... that's not right, I have to find a way back! And if he is with me that wont be good at all.
I mean what would he think if I just leave him sigh.' Inuyasha let go of her leg and watched as she left the hut, saying good bye one final time.
As she was about to leave she heard something that didn't sound right at all. "Well I hope your happy you ungrateful twit" Kie's voice hissed. "I'm sorry mother, it won't happen again"
"Your damn right it wont" Kagome stood in horror she heard the sound of a slap, and thump. Kagome's mind started to swim with images of Kie slapping Inuyasha to the floor. "I'm sorry mother" Inuyasha sobbed.
"What ever, you little freak! Go make me some rice, and make it right this time!" Kie demanded; unaware that Kagome could hear everything. "Yes mother, can I eat tonight to?" he asked with a hopeful tone. Kagome heard a sickening laughter in Kie's voice. "You filthy bastard half-breed! I was going to let you eat tonight but after what you pulled today, you won't be eating for a week!"
Kagome heard another sob as Inuyasha tried to plead with his mother. "Please mama it wasn't my fault, I didn't know she was going to bring me back here, I didn't know I was going to be attacked! Please mother! I'm so hungry"
"If you're on your best behavior you might be able to eat tomorrow"
To say Kagome was shocked would be a big under statement! 'This isn't the woman Inuyasha told me about, this wasn't the nice and pretty woman she was speaking to moments ago! This cant be his mother!' Kagome thought in furry. 'She would never treat her own son like that! Never! She was the one who Inuyasha knew he would be accepted by! Even Kikyo didn't like him as a hanyou, and although I accepted him as he was is, I'm not in his life, yet. She shrieked in her mind.
She heard Inuyasha cough, but it sounded distant, like he was in another room. 'Of course making his mother rice!' Kagome didn't know what to do anymore! She didn't want to leave Inuyasha alone with this mad woman but she couldn't change his past any more.
"You stupid child! Are you trying to get me sick!" screamed Kie's voice and it faded to a level of volume like Inuyasha's. "No! No I was covering my mouth, I would never, I couldn't help it, I'm sorry!" Inuyasha cried. "Look at you crying like a baby! Suck it up! Sesshoumaru would never cry like this! Don't you wanna be like your darling brother!?"
"I'm sorry mother" Inuyasha whispered in a much quitter tone. Kagome knew he was trying to hold back his sobs. She could hear Kie whisper something that She couldn't make out then another slap and thud was heard. Kagome gasped when she heard stomping foot steps get louder and closer, and ran to hide behind the hut.
Kie stormed out of the hut and walked into the forest cursing her 'bastard' son for his ignorance under her breath. Kagome walked back to the huts entrance when she heard Inuyasha in a full out fit of crying. When she reached the 'kitchen' she could clearly see Inuyasha in a heap on the floor, crying whatever tears he could.
"Inuyasha?" she asked timidly, not sure if he knew she was there. It was obvious he didn't, because when she spoke he gasped loudly and stood to Kagome, trying his best to look like he wasn't crying by whipping away his tears.
Kagome knelt to the child and embraced him. "Its Ok Inuyasha, I heard it all, you are safe with me, you can cry if you want to." Kagome comforted, as soon as she was done speaking Inuyasha clutched Kagome and cried on her shoulder. Sobbing and trying to tell Kagome that it wasn't his fault.
Soon Kagome felt Inuyasha's grip loosen and his sobs stop. She looked at him and realized he was sleeping. 'What am I going to do?' she asked herself.
(LOL that looks so constipated!)
That's chapter 3! Don't you feel so bad for Inuyasha? I do! I'm so mean, please review or this has to be my last chapter, and I like the way this is turning out! I'm open for any idea's you people have and want in to story! Thank you!
