Disclaimer: I own nothing, nothing at all.

Okay to answer some things that may be confusing: first off Kagome won't stay 11 throughout the story this is just for now and I can't say much more or I'll ruin my plot but uhh yeah throws herself down one the floor begging please don't hate me!

Oh and to Son of a 00000 yeah I feel really really bad but I can't figure out who you are so could you give me a bit more of a hint puppy dog eyes please

Oh and brownie points to every one "NO WIRE HANGERS" did come from Mommie Dearest (my mother made me watch that when I was in the fifth grade to prove a point)

Once again sorry about the shortness of last chapter it was kind of hectic here.

"Did anything strange or funny happen on the day your sister disappeared?" Inuyasha asked walking around the table once again looking a various objects on the wall.

"No, every thing had gone about normally except," he said.

"Yes?" Sesshoumaru pressed.

"Naraku, Naraku took Kagome outside, you see he hardly ever did that and if he did it was only at the pressing of my mother," Souta said looking out a fogged up window.

"Why didn't he take her outside very often?" Inuyasha asked.

"He told mother it was because she could get frightened easily and may have a fit," Souta said dully he then seemed to snap out of it.

"Why are you asking all these questions you should be out looking for my sister not looking at paintings on the wall!" he snapped glaring at Inuyasha.

"Boy, do not doubt that we are asking these questions for a reason, one of the best ways of tracking a disappearance is finding out how it happened," Sesshoumaru said coolly.

"Now then," Inuyasha said gaining Souta's attention once more "This Naraku who hired him?"

"My father," he said bitterly.

"Do you know why?" Sesshoumaru asked.

"No, all I know is that father hired him right after Kagome's accident," he said.

"Do you what made Kagome's accident happen?" Inuyasha asked.

"No, I was in the nursery with mother when it happened," Souta said.

"Keh, for someone who lives in this house you sure don't seem to know much of anything," Inuyasha said.

Souta then stood up rather quickly so that his legs weren't quite used to the new rush of blood flow which caused him to fall over he nearly hit the floor when Inuyasha reached out and caught him.

"I don't know much because no one tells me very much," he said tears running down his face.

"Kid relax I didn't mean it that way," Inuyasha said, awkwardly rubbing Souta's back.

"Nice job little brother," Sesshoumaru said from behind the desk.

"Will you shut up you're not helping right now!" Inuyasha barked still trying to sooth Souta.

"I do know one thing though," Souta said after rubbing the snot off of his face.

"Yeah kid, what is it," Inuyasha said carefully hoping the kid wouldn't start crying again.

"That on the day of Kagome's accident father fired all of the servants except one, because mother wouldn't let him," Souta said, sniffling and rubbing his red rimmed eyes.

"Who was it?" Sesshoumaru asked.

"Kaede, and she was in the field with Kagome when it happened," Souta said looking up at Sesshoumaru.

"Well that was interesting," Inuyasha said after Souta left the room.

"Indeed," Sesshoumaru said stacking all his papers up.

"So we do we interview next the servant or the father?" Inuyasha asked.

"You know where the father is?" Sesshoumaru asked incredulously.

"Yeah didn't you see him outside of the tavern drunk, and complaining about that mistake they call his daughter?" Inuyasha asked.

"No," Sesshoumaru said swiftly.

"Are you sure you're alright?" Inuyasha asked his hand reaching up to feel his brothers forehead only to have it smacked away.

"I'm fine," he said coolly.

"Right," was all Inuyasha said.

"So, what do we know about Naraku?" Sesshoumaru asked.

"He's been the girl's caretaker ever since her accident, he's the only one who knows how to talk to her oh, and he's missing," Inuyasha said reading off of his notes.

"What?" Sesshoumaru asked.

"Umm yeah according to the servants they checked his room this morning and he was gone, like he'd never been there at all," Inuyasha said.

"Inuyasha," Sesshoumaru said tensely.

"Yes brother dearest?" Inuyasha asked in a sing-song voice.

"Don't you think it would have been prudent to have told me this earlier?" he asked.

"No, well to tell you the truth it slipped my mind," Inuyasha said scratching his head.

"Inuyasha," Sesshoumaru said coldly.

"Yes?" he asked.

"Run," and with that Sesshoumaru lunged at his brother, who dogged at the last minute.

"So, I'm going to go look at the rooms she stayed in! I'll let you handle the old hag!" Inuyasha yelled back at his livid brother and rushed off to the west wing.

Sesshoumaru just stood there taking in deep, very deep, breathes.

Naruto sat up against the side of the wall listening to the rain, he felt like he was slowly going insane, being cooped up in that little room Kakashi was out with Tazuna, Sakura had taken the girl for a bath, and Sasuke was ignoring him.

Naruto tried to resist it he really did, but well old habits really do die hard. Needless to say Sasuke really was going to kill him; Naruto patted himself on the back proudly.

When Sakura had entered the Ninja Academy she had envisioned herself doing brave, awe-inspiring things that would deeply impress Sasuke; not tending to a handicapped girl.

'How'd I get myself into this mess?' she thought.

They were in the hot springs and Sakura had no clue how to get the girl into the water without deeply offending her.

'Maybe she'll understand if I put her hand in the water,' she thought.

Kagome could sense the girls discomfort and could feel the mist rising up from the hot spring; she quickly summarized the girls discomfort as not knowing what she needed to do.

Kagome then sighed and felt around for the knot of her obi after a few tugs she got her outer kimono off, however she needed help with her inner kimono.

Sakura saw the girl struggling and decided it was time to suck it up and be a man...er woman...er girl...

'Well at least I get to travel with Sasuke and Ino doesn't' she thought helping the girl out of her kimono.

Sakura gasped when she saw the girl's torso, she could see her ribs, although they seemed to be filling out more, were covered with faint bruising.

'It must have happened before Naruto found her," Sakura thought.

Kagome didn't know the other girl was watching her intensely and just felt her way into the water. She let out a sigh of contentment when she felt the water hit her tried worn skin.

'I'm in heaven,' Kagome thought.

Sakura however didn't share the same sentiments; she sat down by the edge of the water her pink hair cascading over her shoulders wondering one thing.

'Who would starve and beat a blind and deaf girl?'
