Last Time:

Father hasn't threatned to hit me in a year and a half something must be wrong with mother if he would suggest he'd hit me if I go up and see her. Shippo thought as he nodded hesitantly. With that Inuyasha walked out the door and raced towards Kaede's hut that was about a mile away.

This Time:

With Inuyasha

Inuyasha arrived at Kaede's in no time and soon found himself at her door.

"KAEDE ARE YOU HERE? YOU BETTER BE KAEDE!" Inuyasha yelled as he entered the small hut only to see Kaede walk in from another room in the hut.

"What is it Inuyasha you have not talked so harshly since you and Kagome were mated, why are you yelling in my hut?" Kaede asked as she walked towards the fire pit and poked at it a bit.

"it's Kagome, she..she won't answer me when I talk to her, she won't stop staring at whatever is in her view she's stiff as a board and her eyes look so lost." Inuyasha said he had difficultly saying this because he knew what was wrong with Kagome but couldn't admit it.

"she what?...Inuyasha did anything happen to make her like this?"

"Yes but right now I just need you to give me something to snap her out of it."

"Inuyasha I can't help Kagome with this problem unless I know what is wrong with her." Kaede said as she sat down and looked up at Inuyasha.

"alright!" Inuyasha said with agitation in his voice as he sat across from Kaede staring at the fire with a glare.

"well?" Kaede asked

"well me and Kagome awoke to hearing one of the pups crying so Kagome went to go and take care of it but when she got down there Kikyo was there I mean a puppet and was trying to kill Fushigi and the rest of our pups but I got Fushigi out it's grip and killed the puppet and then Kagome cried as she held Fushigi for her life but once she put him back in the play pen she didn't respond anymore she just stared at me her eyes so dead…" Inuyasha said as a chill ran down his back remembering her eyes.

"Another demon puppet?"

"Yes" Inuyasha said simply his head low as he felt responsible for this whole mess by not being able to protect his family better. "but what about Kagome? What can you do for her?"

"Inuyasha there is nothing I can do for her if she is like this because someone threatened her pups, Inuyasha when a female's pups, are threatened her own flesh and blood she can become a wild dog and since she mated with an Inu demon Inuyasha she is more over protective of her pups and nearly having it die in front of her making her powerless that drove her mind, body and heart over the edge the only thing you can do Inuyasha is be by her side and hold her hand and try to lead her back to reality, you see Inuyasha her mind is replaying that moment over and over in her mind trying to make it right and stop it, she is also blaming herself for not being able to do more but watch also she is in total shock of the situation."

"So I should just hold her hand and help her back to reality how long do you think that will take?"

"As long as it takes for her to come back to us but make sure you help her eat too otherwise it could turn into something worse." Kaede said as she closed her eyes not wanting to see the saddened look on Inuyasha's face.

"I see, so she may never come out of this?" Inuyasha asked his eyes wide and filled with sorrow, his body feeling numb now.

"yes but Inuyasha Kagome is a strong girl she will pull out of this I have faith in her you should too but I will be over later to help take care of the pups while you help Kagome."

"yes that would be a good idea." Inuyasha said as he stared down at the wood underneath him, Inuyasha was in such a daze he didn't even notice that he had left Kaede's and had walked all the way back to him home. Inuyasha blinked a bit realizing where his feet had led him.

How am I suppose to explain this to Shippo? Why his mother won't talk or even look at him, and the pups they need a mother to raise them Kaede can help but that's not Kaede's job. They won't fully bond with Kagome unless she takes care of them, Kagome why did you leave me here like this why are you hiding from me my love you said you'd never leave me." Inuyasha thought as he opened the door and walked into his home and saw Shippo crying softly as he sat at the stairs.

"Shippo" Inuyasha said softly as he stood behind him

"I.I didn't go upstairs father.. I . I stayed down here just like you told me to do. But I..but I, ….. I've been keeping a secret from you for mommy."

"A secret?" Inuyasha asked as he kneeled down behind him so he wasn't so intimidating by height even though Shippo was facing the stairs

"Mhhm" Shippo said with tears as he nodded

"what is it?"

"Mommy never got better! I saw her earlier she took some medicine to take her fever down for a few hours and sprayed some of her scent on her to make her seem healthy and she also put some color on her face so you wouldn't worry about her and the pups, and so she could help around the house again, and she..she made me promise not to tell you and I know I have broken her trust but she must be very sick for you to threaten to hit me if I go and see her." Shippo said with more tears and a soft choked up voice trying not to be loud and wake his brothers and sisters.

"Shippo your mother isn't sick because you kept that promise, I'm glad you told me though but your mother will be good as new soon I just didn't want you bothering her, you know she needs her rest besides I need someone to look out for them…." Inuyasha said as he pointed at his pups "they need a lot of protection since they are only babies and with the demon that came in earlier I needed someone watching the door." Inuyasha said softly "Now go wash your face and you can outside and play for a bit Kaede is going to come over soon and watch over the pups so why don't you go and play with the village children again."

"Okay Father" Shippo said as he walked towards a bucket and washed his face and walked outside slowly.

I hurt Shippo now more then I ever have when we were traveling, he is so worried about Kagome but I can't blame him I'm more worried then he is. And the pups are so defenseless right now and so is Kagome at this point I don't know if I can handle this……My love is in total shock and almost lost in her own mind..my pups are already hated for being 25 demon and they are only pups….and Shippo is so worried about Kagome but I can't let him see her like this if I want to be a good father I have to be strong for all of them, I can't let Shippo see Kagome this way and the pups I will have to take care of myself when Kaede is not here but I have to do it otherwise no one else will. Inuyasha thought as he walked upstairs into their room and saw Kagome still laying there staring at the ceiling, the blankets still messed up from their earlier experience. Inuyasha stared at Kagome as she didn't move not even to blink. "Kagome I'm back" Inuyasha said trying to act like it was the same as usual. But he was only met with the quiet blaring against his ears and her still form on the bed. Inuyasha walked towards Kagome and sat down on the mattress and held her hand just like he used to when she was sick. Inuyasha kissed Kagome's hand over and over and pressed it to his face trying to make her realize he was there.

"Kagome I'm here, I'm not leaving you here all alone I promise, Please KAGOME PLEASE COME BACK TO ME!" Inuyasha said with tears in his eyes but didn't let them fall as he squeezed her hand so tight it turned white in his grasp and almost cutting her flesh. But realized once his claws felt something soft against them and immediately lessoned his grip.

"Kagome I'm here I'm not leaving please come back please……"Inuyasha said as he kissed her hand a final time only to hear all of his pups starting to cry again.

What all of them? Is someone in the house?" Inuyasha thought as he sniffed the air he couldn't smell anyone else in the house. Inuyasha then let go of her hand with a final kiss and went to go and get check on his pups.
