DF: Whew All this brain storming is making me bored. I think we should start up this again. Sorry about the long break, but again it makes for a better story.

Mizuno had stayed around to watch her "project" grow up. "God, these humans have no idea how to raise this kid." She said to herself, watching them play with him. "Well, at least they can actually have kids." She started remembering what had happened so long ago.

Many years earlier…

"Please, my lord, give me another chance." Mizuno begged her lover. He looked at her with spite. "I have given you countless opportunities to even attempt to give me the son that I seek. You have been worthless in my endeavor, I don't even want to see your face again!" he yelled at her. She shrunk away crying and hurt.

Present

"God, I was a naïve idiot." She looked back at Otaru. "Heh, well then again if I hadn't stayed after that then…"

The Past

"I thought I told you I didn't want to see you ever again!" he yelled across the huge meeting hall in his base of operations. She looked at him seductively. "A little birdie told me that you 'found' yourself a son." He jumped in surprise for a moment.

"And if your little birdie was right? What then?" "Then I would ask to be his… mother." She said "I mean, I know what you want out of this child. So I could do what your late wife could not."

He thought about this for a long period of time. During this time Mizuno walked up to him and used her index finger and dragged it around in a little circle on his chest. "Please my lord?" she begged him sweetly. "You will not interfere with my war." He said simply.

"Of course not, only with you… and our son."

Present: 2 years later

"Sigh, jeez he more human now than he ever was back then." Said Mizuno watching Otaru playing with the water. "At his age he was already creating things with it. And there was also that day…"

Past: 3-4 years later

"Are you ready for your pills, Yue?" said Mizuno sweetly to her son. "Why do I gotta take such yucky pills momma?" he asked with a pained expression on his face.

"Oh, suck it up. Don't be such a…" she started before some general in her lovers army ran in. "My lady!"

"What is it?" She asked bitterly. "T-The great one… he…" "Spit it out!" she yelled at him. "HE'S DEAD!" he yelled back.

"What?" she said keeping a serious tone. She rushed out of the room, keeping herself calm. Little Yue followed his mother to the meeting hall where his father laid dead on the floor. Yue ran up to his father's corpse and began calling to him.

"Father? Father! FATHER?" he yelled as he shook the corpse. Mizuno grabbed her child by his shoulder and looked him straight in the eye. "Get over it! Your words can't wake the dead." She said in an even, serious, tone. "Alright, I want you all to start cleaning this up. Also find out if those damn dogs are behind this. GO!"

Everyone began to move around, following her orders. She grabbed the still sniffling Yue by the wrist and took him back to his room. "Listen to me, this…" she said showing him her bloody hand. "This is nothing. All you need to worry about is your own life. No one else's is important, not the generals, not your father, and not me. You have to understand this if you ever want to be even half the demon your father was."

She then proceeded to put him to sleep and went back to her room herself. She slowly closed the door and leaned back against it. She stood there for a couple minutes before slowly curling herself up into a ball. The tears then came and didn't stop for the rest of the night.

Past: 17 years later.

"What's on for today?" Said the newly enthroned Yue. "A public appearance, troop visits, and a tactical meeting with the generals." Said Mizuno.

"Well, I guess there's no time for me on the field." He said standing up and walking out of the throne room. "My lord, you shouldn't waste your time with those lesser demons that are out on the field." She said, following him, "The only one you should use any energy on is their leader-"

"The bastard who killed my father." He interrupted, "I wish that coward would just show himself, I can't wait to get my hands on him." "My lord there is no need to get emotional, remember what I said when the great lord died." Mizuno warned

"This is just some excitement, Mizuno. I feel no pain anymore." He smirked. "MY LORD!" yelled a soldier from the door. "You better have a good reason for disturbing him." Said Mizuno stepping in front of Yue.

He handed her a message which she read then smirked. She tossed the paper toward Yue. "I'll cancel your appearances, my lord." She said leaving the room. Yue looked questioningly at Mizuno until he himself read the note. He smirked in the most devilish manner. "Get the generals together. The most important battle is about to begin."

Present: 1 year later.

Mizuno sat up in her tree watching Otaru finally creating little toys out of the mud. "Well, at least this time the battle won't be as hard."

"Otaru! Come on in, it's time to eat!" Sango called out to him. The young Otaru ran back inside all muddy. "Mommy! Look, look what I made!" He had brought in a mud statue of a stick figure. Mizuno spying one last time, laughed at the thing. "I'll come back for you, my son…"

Miroku started to feel uneasy. He knew that she was near watching. "Miroku, what's the matter? You look pale." Sango said. "Oh, it's nothing, really." He got up and started to walk outside to see if she was still watching him. As he got to the door, Sango yelled over to him from Otaru's room. "Miroku, Kagome wants to take Otaru over to her time to play in the park. She says that she'll watch him while we go and spend some time together." "That sounds great!" He called back looking around the house making sure that that devil of a demon wasn't hanging around. "Good, so well go tomorrow!"

Not paying attention, he walked around the perimeter of the house then close to the lake but found no trace of her or her demonic aura. He went back inside relieved that she was no where near his family. In the background, he could hear Sango fighting to get Otaru out of the bath and then into bed. It looked like things were looking up.

The next day

A/N: KG- look I know you all know how the well works. But, as long as I'm writing this story, things are going to change a bit. Not much. But just enough to make you ask me "What are you doing? That's not what is supposed to happen." Well you know what? Yea, but hang in there. This will all make since soon. I bet these guys are getting sick of hearing us tell them to hang in there.

DF: I have a good reason even if KG doesn't, they found an old scroll that tells of a spell that allowed allies of the two to be able to pass through the well too. Well it makes sense to me anyway.

KG: Who told you to talk?

DF: Don't you take your PMS out on me.

KG: Awww, but I have to you're my lover.

They all met at the well late in the morning. Kagome and Inuyasha were there first and Kagome had some clothes in her hands. "Aunt Kagome!" called Otaru from on top of Miroku's shoulders. "Hi, Otaru! Have you been a good boy for your parents?" "Yup!"

"Only if your not anywhere near water." Said Sango. "He never wants to leave it." She explained to Kagome. "Kagome, what's with those clothes?" asked Miroku. "Well, the kind of clothes you have would be seen as strange back in my time. So I brought you some more contemporary clothing. The only problem is that I couldn't find anything in your size, Otaru." She replied. "That's okay, Aunt Kagome." He said cheerfully.

"Ummmm… Kagome… Isn't this a bit, I don't know, revealing?" asked Sango as she laid the outfit over her body. "Awww, come on Sango, you'll look so cute in that." Kagome said. "Actually Kagome…" Said Miroku coming back from changing. "I think these clothes are a little uncomfortable." He said that but Sango couldn't stop staring. He was now wearing a black muscle shirt covered with a purple collared shirt left unbuttoned and black jeans. "Sango likes, huh?" Kagome teased Sango. Sango blushed heavily and ran to go change.

"You look funny dad." Laughed Otaru. Miroku just rolled his eyes as everyone waited for Sango. When she came back, it was Miroku's turn to stare. She came wearing a white button down shirt and a pink mini-skirt. "Are we ready to go yet?" asked Inuyasha annoyed. "Not yet." Said Kagome handing clothes to Inuyasha. "What? Why do I gotta do it too?" "Because, even with a hat people still stare at your clothes, now go change." Finished Kagome and shoved Inuyasha off to go change.

Once arriving in the present, all of Miroku's family marveled at all that was there. Kagome then sent Miroku and Sango out for a romantic day. She offered to watch over Otaru. Otaru protested leaving his parents for a little while, but as soon as Kagome showed him the playground that they were taking him to he started to calm down. Then Miroku and Sango went off comforted with the fact Otaru would have fun.

He ran off happily finding kids his own age to play with. "Isn't he so sweet, Inuyasha?" Kagome asked him sweetly resting her head on his shoulder. "Not really. He whines to much." He said closing his eyes. "What is that supposed to mean? Do you even want kids?" she said getting off his shoulder. "It's not that I don't want kids. I'm just saying he's annoying."

As Kagome and Inuyasha fought, Otaru was being teased. He had sand and small rocks thrown at him. "What's going on over there?" Kagome said worried and started to get up to walk over to Otaru. "Sit down, he'll be fine. It'll toughen him up if anything." He said grabbing her wrist and pulling her down.

Otaru was having a hard time till one of the kids brought over a pale of water to dump over his head. But was surprised to see that he had stopped the water from even touching him.

"Did you see that?" Inuyasha said jumping up from his seat and running over to Otaru.

"See what? What happened? Inuyasha!" Kagome got up from her seat yelling after him. Otaru felt so overwhelmed that the water splashed everywhere much like a cannon ball in a pool, soaking all the kids and Inuyasha. Otaru saw that his uncle was running to him and ran up to him.

"Uncle!" Otaru ran up to him crying. Inuyasha grabbed him and ran off quickly before people would come up and start asking questions. "Inuyasha, where are you going?" Called Kagome after Inuyasha just ran by her. He didn't stop running until he got to Kagome's house.

"What the hell was that all about Inuyasha?" yelled Kagome. Inuyasha put the sobbing toddler down. "You're telling me you didn't see that?" Inuyasha argued back. "Yeah, I didn't see anything, the last I saw was him being teased but you said he'd be fine!"

"What's all the commotion about?" asked Miroku walking up with Sango. "We saw Inuyasha running by and got worried." Said Sango. "Mommy!" sobbed Otaru as he ran into her arms. "What's the matter Otaru?" asked his mother.

"Mommy, Mommy, they were teasing me, and the rocks, and the water, and, and, and, they really hurt my feelings." He spat out as fast as possible. "What?" asked a confused Miroku. Otaru inhaled to repeat what he had just said but Sango cover his mouth before he started. "Shhhh, slow down. Now tell me exactly what happened." She told her son.

"They, They… They ,they were makin' fun of me and they threw rocks and one kid tried to splash me with water, but then uncle Inuyasha came and I ran to him." He explained slowly. His mother and father breathed a sigh of relief. "If that's all it was, Inuyasha, why did you have to come back to Kagome's house?" asked Miroku.

"Well, you weren't there, were you? I saved your kid form even more public embarrassment." He argued. "What you mean 'more public embarrassment'?" asked Kagome. "Well remember how he said they were going to splash him with water, well they did, it just didn't touch 'im." He said. "What do you mean?" asked Sango. "I'm mean the water… oh never mind." He said frustrated running into the house.

He came running out two minutes later caring a bowl. "What are you gonna do with that, uncle Inuyasha?" asked Otaru. ""I'm gonna splash ya, now get over here." He said commandingly. Otaru shook his head furiously. "Get out here Otaru." He commanded again. "No! I don't wanna get wet!" he said as he hid behind his mother. "Fine then the water's comin' to you then." said Inuyasha advancing on his target. Otaru started going around in circles with Sango as the center. Inuyasha grew frustrated and switched directions and was able to splash Otaru head on. Otaru flinched but to everyone's surprise the water stopped in mid-air. Miroku, seeing this, began to feel a sinking feeling in his heart.

"O-Otaru?" asked a shocked Sango. Otaru instantly ran to his mother for safety. As soon as he did the water dropped straight down. "I don't wanna get wet Mommy!" he tearfully told his mother. "See, what I tell ya? No one ever believes me…" Inuyasha grumbled.

Miroku heard the demon's voice in his head: "This is where the fun begins, my darling monk." "Miroku? Do you know something about this?" asked Kagome. Miroku jumped at the sudden question and saw everyone was looking at him. "W-What makes you say that, Kagome?" Miroku nervously asked.

"Because," said Inuyasha. "you look like this is torturing you more than it should." Miroku felt like he was backed into a corner. "W-Well…" "Miroku if you know anything , spit it out!" yelled a clearly worried Sango.

"I…" he said looking at everyone. The pressure he felt was astounding. He felt like everyone was already biased against him. "Sango you know I love you I would never do anything to hurt you…" he started. "Stop stalling tell us what you know!" Sango was now on the verge of tears. He inhaled and told them all about the unintentional affair and the blue ball which the demoness had.

"So… that's it, huh." Said Sango with her head hung low. "Sango please you know I wouldn't have done this intentionally." Miroku begged. "Some monk you are… you couldn't even stand up to her magic…" she said sadly as tears began to fall.

"Mommy, what's the matter?" asked Otaru. "Nothing… let's go home, Otaru." She said walking off. "What about Dad?" he said following his mom. "Dad's gonna stay with your aunt Kagome, if he knows what's best for him." She said coldly.

After Sango and Otaru left, Inuyasha looked at Miroku. "He ain't staying with us, I can tell you that." He said as headed for the well. "Don't worry Miroku," said Kagome starting to follow Inuyasha. "you'll just have to suck up more than usual, I'm sure it'll be just fine."

One month later

Miroku was tired and uncomfortable on the front porch of his own house but he knew he messed up big time this time. Sango walked out as she always did to do some shopping. She noticed Miroku there for the thirtieth time. "Aren't you tired yet?" she asked frustrated. "Hungry and uncomfortable, but not tired." He replied simply. She started down the front porch but stopped at the edge. "Get up." She said agitatedly. He complied. "Start making it up to me by cleaning the entire house. I want it spotless by the time I get back." She ordered.

Later after dinner

She started walking to their room. She stopped and told Miroku: "Your sleeping in Otaru's room tonight." She said closing the door and audibly locking it. At this point he had to comply.

Outside

A shadowy figure seemed to sit upon air with his legs crossed. "Well she served her purpose, now it's my turn to keep my promise." He said.
