1Little Red Riding Hood

A Feudal Fairytale

Disclaimer: We do not own Inuyasha

A nightmare woke her from her deep sleep. She ran to the person that could comfort her most.

"Mommy! Mommy! I'm scared!"

Little Sasha ran to her parent's bedroom and stopped at the door. She put her puppy ear to the door and listened to the sounds inside. What she heard disturbed her greatly.

"Sounds like Daddy is hurting mommy again! I need to help her." She whispered to herself.

Sensing that someone was near, Inuyasha rolled off Kagome. He threw her nightgown at her as he put on his boxers.

"What is wrong? Didn't you like it?"

"It's not you. We just have a visitor at our door." He chuckled as he turned toward the door.

"Well c'mon get in here! I know you are out there!"

Sasha jumped at her father's words and timidly opened the door and went into the room.

Inuyasha stood next to the bed with his arms crossed over his chest and smirked down at his daughter.

"Are you okay Mommy? Was Daddy hurting you again?"

Inuyasha and Kagome both sweat dropped and blushed at her innocent words. Kagome quickly came around and got out of bed. She strolled calmly over to her daughter noticing how frightened she was. She knelt down in front of her and took her into a motherly embrace. Sasha's eyes quickly began to water.

"Tell me what is wrong dearest. Mommy is here." Kagome cooed at her daughter into her puppy ear.

Sasha cried into her shoulder and told her about the bad dream she had. Inuyasha watched from the bed into which he returned. He watched with pride filled eyes at his mate and pup. Love filling him even more then before and glad that things had turned out the way it did. Though as Kagome stood and started for the bed. His need for her growing, but was quickly satiated as he saw Sasha coming back to the bed with her.

"Feh." He grumbled and rolled his eyes. He pulled down the covers for both of them to snuggle with him, as this was quickly becoming a routine.

Kagome climbed in behind Sasha in the king size bed and both sidled up and cuddled next to Inuyasha. He pulled the covers up on them all and was about to doze off to sleep knowing that his night of passion was ruined. Then Sasha's bell like voice startled him.

"Mommy tell me a fairytale."

"Which one would you like to hear?"

"Keh." Was all Inuyasha got to say before Kagome shot him a warning glance and mouthed the words.

"Sit boy."

He quickly shut his trap and let her handle their child. Kagome began to ignore him as she stroked her fingers through her daughter's hair listing off fairytales to tell her.

"How about Cinderella, Peter Pan, Snow White, or Repunzel?"

Sasha grimaced at those and shook her head vigorously.

"No. No. No. I want to hear the fairytale of how you met daddy and how Auntie Sango met Uncle Miroku too."

Inuyasha grinned evilly over at Kagome with triumph in his eyes. Kagome went really white in the face except for her blood red cheeks. Like a happy puppy he eagerly sat up and offered to tell the story.

"I'll tell it if you don't want to."

Kagome turned to face him with nothing but malice in her voice. "Sit Boy!"

Inuyasha was quickly on his face on the bed unable to sit up for quite some time. Sasha seeing that her daddy was in such a position she started laughing at her father.

"Silly Daddy." She giggled and bent down and kissed him on the back of the head. She giggled once again as she got a warm grunt from him.

Kagome opened her arms and Sasha climbed into her lap ready for her tale. Kagome looked down at her and began her story.

"Well it all began with a girl that came into possession of a red kimono and a Shikon Jewel…."

"I'm off! Don't worry about the cold! I have the Red Kimono Grandma had given me!"

"Okay Kagome! Have fun!"

In the well house, a voice by her side piped up to Kagome. "You sure we will be alright on this journey?"

Kagome looked down at the basket at her side and smiled.

"It's okay Sango. Grandmother Keade has Kilala. She will be waiting for us. So don't worry. We'll have Grandma turn you back with the jewel and I will heal her with it. Which just happens to be safely hidden in your…."

Kagome was quickly cut off by a loud shrieking voice. She turned to see whom it was and was met with broken wood flying everywhere. Her sister was standing there panting, her yellow backpack on the ground barely being held in her hand.

"Rin! Why are you here?"

"You…aren't…leaving…. without…me…."

Kagome looked exasperated and Sango let out a loud sigh.

"You can go on one condition Rin…." Sango spoke softly.

"Anything just please let me join you? I need to get out of this house. The malls bore me…."

Sango would have had an evil grin on her face if she wasn't a basket.

"You can't talk to any demons." She said flatly.

Shock and absolute horror crossed Rin's face. Her jaw had fallen to the floor. Kagome just looked from Sango to Rin and sweat dropped.

"Sango does have a point. The last time you came with us, Sango was turned into a basket in turn for your freedom."

Rin whined back at her elder sister, "Okay what happened with Jaken was not my fault."

"Yes it was. If the toad wasn't so in love with you as to add you to his collection then Sango wouldn't have jumped in his way and turned into a basket instead. So yeah, I might have missed the part where it wasn't your fault."

Rin rolled her eyes and her shoulders slumped. "Okay maybe had I not talked to him and he thought I was absolutely gorgeous. None of this would have happened. So yes, I'm sorry. So can we go now?"

Both Sango and Kagome sweat dropped and just decided to give in to the girl.

"Fine Rin let's go. Sango wants to be returned to human form as soon as possible. I also want to get there before night falls to make camp."

Rin nodded and they all leapt into the well. Darkness enveloped them and they faded from the modern world.

"You did it again Rin." Kagome scowled and Sango sighed.

"What did I do this time!"

Rin took her turn from climbing out of the well to find that night had fallen in feudal Japan. Rin sweat dropped.

"Sorry."

"Well, for this you get to go collect the fire wood." Kagome ordered as she stood from the lip of the well carrying Sango off into a clearing near by.

"WHAT! BY MYSELF! You have got to be kidding me! Wait… where are you going… Fine! I'll go this way and collect the firewood. Humph." Rin stamped off.

Rin wandered off into the near by darkness with the flashlight she happened to bring with her. She searched the forest floor for the wood mumbling and grumbling to herself, unaware that she was being watched from the treetops by an unknown presence.
