Kagome awakened to Inuyasha getting up. They had both fallen asleep. Kagome opened her eyes drowsily and saw that Inuyasha was fixing his shirt back in place. Kagome closed her eyes again to fall back asleep. She could hear the door open, and then shut as Inuyasha left her room.
Inuyasha quietly went downstairs. He glanced over at the clock. The time was three o'clock in the morning. Inuyasha sniffed the air for the scent of Tuni, but couldn't smell anything.
"Damn I forgot I'm human." Inuyasha's powers were still trapped in the amulet around his neck. Inuyasha tapped it, and could feel his powers returning. He sniffed the air once more, picking up his son's scent. It was coming from Kagome's mother's room.
"Oh crap..." Inuyasha wiped his hand down his face. "Of all the places..." Inuyasha heaved a sigh, then went upstairs to Kagome's mother's doorway. The door was wide open. Inuyasha smirked and prowled in not even making the slightest sound. He went over to a crib in the far side of the room. And there was a little human baby Tuni fast asleep. Inuyasha picked Tuni up ever so quietly and snuck back out.
Inuyasha carried Tuni back to Kagome's room. Inuyasha sat on Kagome's bed, by her feet cradling his son. Tuni's face looked very very pale since he had lost all his powers. It was a big change for such a little guy. Inuyasha started to regret his decision to keep Tuni a human...
It would be hiding Tuni's true self... and that wasn't right, but at the same time, it would save Tuni from the horrible things humans do to those who are demons.
Inuyasha moaned in deep thought. Tuni woke up and started crying. "Oh crap come on!" Inuyasha started to shake the baby trying to figure out how to make him quiet. The baby only screamed louder.
Kagome sat up sleepy eyed and tore Tuni from Inu's arms. "Bad Inuyasha! Sit Boy!" Inuyasha's face bashed down into the ground. Tuni stopped crying, then pointed at his daddy and giggled.
Inuyasha growled under his breath. "Oh you like that huh..." Inuyasha tried to snatch Tuni back, but Kagome lifted Tuni up making Inuyasha miss. "SIT BOY!" Once again Inuyasha's face pummeled the ground. "Don't touch Tuni like that Inuyasha! Your supposed to be a father! Jeez have some patience will you!" Kagome stood up and left the room with Tuni.
She carried him downstairs to the kitchen, where she then pulled out the high chair and placed Tuni in it. "Now stay put while I make you a snack." Tuni giggled and clapped his chubby little hands while Kagome searched through the fridge for some Gerber food.
"Ah here we go!" Kagome pulled out a bottle of apricot Gerber food from the back of the fridge. She unscrewed the lid, and spooned out the contents into a small plastic bowl. She brought the bowl over to Tuni and scooped a spoon in the puree.
"Here comes the airplane... Here comes the airplane" Kagome made engine noises, and swished the spoon around in the air, then slowly into Tuni's mouth. Tuni sucked the food right off of the spoon. Kagome continued this until the bowl was half empty. Tuni gave a little burp signaling he was full. Kagome put some Saran wrap over the top of the bowl and put it back in the fridge. She then picked up baby Tuni and rocked him back and forth burping him at the same time.
"Hey my little baby. Fall asleep... faaall asleep." Kagome's voice was soft and warm. Tuni's little eyes started to become droopy, and within minutes he was asleep in her arms. Kagome brought him upstairs and ever so gently put him down on the pushiness of the crib. She put a little baby blanket over him and put his teddy bear next to his head, then gave him a light kiss on the forehead. She then left the room, and went back to her room, where Inuyasha was grumbling.
"Inuyasha you cant handle a baby like that! Especially your own! And I see you already went back on your decision to stay human." Kagome sounded a little agitated, but then sighed and calmed herself down. She sat next to Inuyasha.
"Im sorry Inuyasha... I didn't mean to get mad." She put her arms around him. "I love you, and I love how you are. I guess that would be rude to change you.... I fell in love with the hanyou Inuyasha..." She then put her head in his lap. "And I want to stay in love with the hanyou Inuyasha.
Inuyasha looked down at her and gently put his hand on her head. "Thank you Kagome, for understanding..."
Kagome made a light grunt acknowledging him as she fell asleep. Inuyasha stayed up all night watching over Kagome.
At about 6:00 the next morning Kagome woke up because of Tuni's crying. Inuyasha immedietly stood up. His ears perked up listening to his crying child. Inuyasha swiftly left the room and went to the baby's crib. He picked Tuni up and cradled him ever so gently. Inuyasha brought Tuni back to Kagome's room. He sat on the bed and gently rocked his son back and forth, but Tuni continued to cry. Kagome reached out and took Tuni from Inuyasha's arms. She then turned away, and slipped her shirt partly off so she could breastfeed him.
Tuni quieted down as he breastfed. Tuni burped indicating he was full. Kagome put her shirt back on, and held him against her shoulder as she gently patted his back.
Cute little Tuni made a couple baby burps. A light smile showed on Inuyasha's face as he watched how gentle Kagome was with their child. Kagome then cradled Tuni when she was done burping him.
Only a moment later he started to cry again. Kagome gently kissed him and tried to calm him down, but he continued to cry. Inuyasha sat uneasy at the sound of his child crying. Kagome then checked his diaper making sure it was nice and clean still, and that he didn't make a poopy. But it was clean and he still cried.
Kagome kept cradling him, burping him, feeding him, everything! Trying to make him stop crying!
Kagome then looked over at Inuyasha worriedly. "Inu, I think he's in pain..." Inuyasha looked over at his crying son. "Bu—what could be wrong, you've been doing everything right...." Inuyasha took all of Tuni's clothes off and laid him on the bed. Inuyasha then ran his fingers across Tuni's body, searching for any abrasions he could have incurred. But none turned up.
"Maybe he's sick..." Kagome said as she watched her poor babe struggle around in pain... Inuyasha looked at his son. It was painful for him to hear the screams of his child. Kagome sat in Inuyasha's lap and grabbed onto his shirt crying. "He looks so pale... don't you know what's wrong with him Inuyasha?!"
Inuyasha pushed her hands down gently, and rubbed Kagome's shoulder. He didn't want to say it, but he choked out the words any way. "Let's... err---ask your mother..." The words seemed so painful to say.... She was such a hard person to deal with.
Inuyasha took off his red top and rolled it around Tuni as he picked his son up gently. Tuni started to cough violently spitting up blood on Inuyasha's shirt. The bloodstains showed visibly against the white fabric. Inuyasha and Kagome rushed out of their room.
"Mom! Mom! Something's wrong with Ohsiatuni... He's spitting up blood!" Kagome's mother came rushing out of her room.
"What? What happened?" Inuyasha's mom looked at the blood all over Inu's shirt.
Kagome had tears streaming from her eyes. "I think we need to take him to the hospital. Please mom I'm so worried about him!" Kagome's mother went up to Inuyasha to take the baby.
Inuyasha stepped back and looked at Kagome. Kagome looked back at her mother. "Just let Inuyasha hold him... he's worried. Please mom, we don't need a fight now..." Kagome's mother turned around and ran down the stairs and grabbed her keys. Kagome ran over to the coat rack and grabbed her coat and a baseball cap for Inuyasha. They all piled in the car, Kagome and her mother still in their pajamas.
Kagome sat in the back with Inuyasha. See the shear horror on Inuyasha's face. Every once and a while Inuyasha let out a slight growl. Tuni continued to cough up blood on Inuyasha.
Inuyasha kept fidgeting. The scent of his own son's blood was making it worst for Inuyasha. The car came to a subtle halt in the emergency lane for the hospital. Kagome put the hat on Inuyasha's head and they ran inside. Kagome ran to the reception desk and explained the emergency. Inuyasha was still growling to himself. The receptionist called a doctor down, and then a nurse pulled out a rolling stretcher to put the baby on. She ran over to Inuyasha and reached for the baby. Inuyasha growled ferociously and leapt back about ten feet. The receptionist stood in shock for a moment.
"Oh no... Inuyasha, these people want to help Tuni... Please hand her Tuni Inuyasha..." She ran over to Inuyasha and put her hands on him trying to calm him down. She gently took Tuni, and then ran him over to the nurse. The nurse put him on the stretcher and ran him in the emergency room. Inuyasha roared madly. The heavy scent of the blood was really bothering him. He thrashed around a bit.
People started to stare. Kagome wanted to follow Tuni into the emergency room, but Inuyasha was to dangerous to leave alone right now. She looked over at her mother, and her mother quickly understood and followed the stretcher, while Kagome ran over to Inuyasha. She grabbed his hand and ran him through the nearest door. They ended up in a quiet empty courtyard that was made for the long term patients. She sat Inuyasha down and sat in his lap with her hands on his chest.
"Please Inuyasha you have to calm down... Please..." She looked up at his face. He was bearing his teeth and growling (not at her though) Kagome gasped seeing the demon marks on his face. "Please Inuyasha! Calm down I know you can control this... please!" Kagome Pulled off Inuyasha's bloody shirt and threw it into a small Koi pond. Trying to rid Inuyasha of the blood.
Inuyasha still wouldn't calm down. Kagome closed her eyes hard, then opened them again and gently put her hands on his chest. She leaned up and kissed him. His growls became heavy breathing and his demon marks became less prominent. He was semi back to normal. Normal enough so that she could talk to him.
Inuyasha kept fidgeting around nervously. "Kagome let me go I have to see him! I cant leave him all alone... I can hear him screaming! HE NEEDS ME!" He tried to stand up, But Kagome kept him down. She saw a tear roll from Inuyasha's face.
Kagome gasped. She had never seen Inuyasha cry before. He usually expressed sadness with anger. But, of course this was his own flesh and blood that was in pain, so she could reason why it was different this time.
"I... Can't let you go Inuyasha. You were almost demon. I know you are worried about Tuni, but modern medicine is very good. And he might just have a little cold or something. And these doctors are very good, and they won't hurt our little baby—and—and..." Kagome's voice was shaky and cracking. She was just trying to reassure Inuyasha, even if she couldn't guarantee that Tuni would be ok in the end of it all..."
"I can calm down! Please I need to see my son! I can't just leave him!!! He needs me... I CAN HEAR HIS SCREAMS!" Inuyasha's voice was also much shaken.
Kagome couldn't hear anything, but then realized that Inuyasha was a demon and could hear sounds miles away. Kagome looked up at Inuyasha's face. The demon marks were gone.
"Fine, but you have to keep a low profile, and if you interrupt the doctor's procedures in any way, then I'm going to use the 'Command'" Inuyasha nodded her request and they both stood up. Kagome took off her jacket and put it on Inuyasha. He couldn't go running around shirtless. Then they both went back inside the building.

Sorry people for the awfully long wait. I've been having some really hard things to overcome lately, so this wasn't on my priority list (yes, yes I know, what could have higher priority than Inuyasha) And I read fan fics too so I know how annoying it is when people don't post for a long time, and especially when they come up with an excuse for it. So im really sorry for the long wait. And on top of it al I've had severe writers block, that's why this chapter is shorter than normal, and not as good... but I still like the events, AND it has been a long time since a new chapter came out, so I decided to cut it short and post it in two parts. I REALLY like this chapter and I'm kind of rusty so I'm asking that no one post flames.
