"Oh InuYasha! You're young hanyou daughter has the determination like you. Too bad I'll have to kill her along with Kagome," Kikyo snickered as her threats were dry with postiche remorse. InuYasha's dark blue eyes shimmered quickly as a low growl vibrated in his throat. Little Kaede clenched her fists as the priestess threatened her and her mother's lives.

"You know," Kikyo mused as her laughter ceased, "We could avoid their ghastly fate as long as you come with me to hell, devoting your heart to me,"

InuYasha glanced over to his mate who was still lying limp on the floor near the other side of the room. As he was about to give in for his family's sake, he was interrupted by his peeved three year old,

"Leave inu-papa alone!"

She cracked her finger bones as she charged the miko who was a threat to her family. Kikyo backed up to dodge the attack but was still injured by the small half demon. Her torn shrine maiden kimono sleeve hung by a thread near her forearm where there was a gash from the attack. Kikyo frowned at the girl and shouted,

"I'm fed up with this child, she dies anyway!"

With saying this, Kikyo raised her hand and a huge gust of wind blew surprised Kaede into the far wall beside InuYasha. She slid down the wall after the impact and fell to the floor unconscious. Kagome sat up after seeing what had happened and cried for her daughter to wake up once she crawled beside her.

Kikyo laughed at Kagome's efforts to wake her child with her caring voice and warned,

"Now it's time for you to join her,"

She slowly lifted her hand once again but stopped suddenly when she sensed a pulsing gesture from InuYasha. She stopped and she and her reincarnation watched as his tinted black hair began to lighten.

"Wh-what?" Kikyo stuttered in disbelief as InuYasha began to regain his demon blood. His dog ears returned but there was a difference between his half demon self now; he had turned full demon. Kagome looked in awe as there was a prolonged creaking that was coming from the bark surrounding InuYasha. It finally gave way and the tree limbs went flying across the room as he broke free. The low growl from before had now managed it's way up and out of InuYasha's throat into a ferocious growl. Kikyo could feel the fear creeping up on her as the youkai came thrashing forward. He slashed her across the face leaving deep gashes. She lightly fingered the gashes then frowned in fury. She raised both hands and what looked to be glass pieces rose tenaciously from the floor. Kagome protectively covered her daughter's head and most of her body so that the glass did not harm her.

The pieces pierced InuYasha's skin, but he only smirked and shook them all out. Kikyo gasped relentlessly as he came over and stood before her. InuYasha bent down in front of Kikyo and gathered the remaining jewel shards Kikyo had collected which were scattered on the floor around her. He walked before Kagome making her cower with fear. Seeing him attack his past love, Kikyo, made her wonder and fear if he would harm her. He held out his palm with the jewel shards and Kagome relaxed. She carefully took the shards into her grasp and gazed up to him.

"I'm only in love with one, and that is Kagome," He announced to Kikyo. Her eyes darted from him to the floor in embarrassment and defeat. InuYasha's eyes returned to their normal honey coloured self as well as the rest of his body that had changed due to his demon blood taking over. A blue murky force came upon the injured miko and she disappeared without a trace. She wasn't dead, but she was gone. InuYasha turned to Kagome and helped her up. She collapsed in his arms and began to cry tears of relief. Kaede's eyes peeled open to see her parents safe and sound. She smiled a toothy grin and gradually came over to her parents and greeted them. Kagome giggled through happy tears as InuYasha held his daughter and mate close and fought back tears. He never wanted to leave them again.

Nine Years Later

Kaede ran through the house with her jet black hair fluttering through the air as she dodged numerous objects that came forth. She halted suddenly though when she came upon an object that she couldn't dodge; her great-grandfather. He raised a finger as he began to lecture his great grand daughter,

"Excuse me young lady..."

He began to inform her on how demons in her era weren't just going to let her walk all over them when she was in battle with them. As he rambled on, Kaede's eyes darted to the side in a bored manner. She finally interrupted him,

"Great Grandpa!" He paused as she continued,

"If I wanted to hear about my time, I would have stayed home!"

As he was about to respond, he pondered on what to say. Not knowing how to reply, he walked off into the next room in a huff. Kaede smirked playfully at her dumb-struck great-grandpa, and jetted up the stairs towards her mother's old room. As she walked through the hall, making her way for Kagome's old room, she peered in awe at the sun beams which shone to the hallway from her room. She stepped in and ran up to her mother's stereo system and rummaged through her old CDs. She popped one in and pressed play with her long demon nail while turning up the volume with her other hand. As the music flowed out from the speakers she couldn't help but begin to move her hips and become eloped in dance. With her excellent hearing, she heard the doorbell's faint ring. But she was so into her dancing that she didn't think of going out to see who it was...at least until the song was over. As she continued dancing, her mother unexpectedly ducked her head in the room at the door and couldn't help but laugh. Kaede finally noticed her mom and turned bright red at being caught dancing. She collapsed onto the bed as if she hadn't been dancing and smiled like she hadn't felt even a slight bit of embarrassment. Kagome looked to the floor as she sauntered into the room and reassured,

"No need to be embarrassed, Kaede,"

Kaede's eyes burned a gold tint as her anger took hold mixed with a touch of self-consciousness.

"I'm not embarrassed!" She yelled to her mother's accusations which were true. Kagome sighed and shook her head at how much her daughter resembled her father with her personality. She sat down beside her daughter and noticed the small pout she had every time she was upset ever since she was a child. Kagome stroked her daughter's cheek and whispered,

"It's your birthday...be happy,"

Kaede cast her gaze to the floor then back up to her mother's brown orbs as she asked,

"When is he coming?"

"He'll be here soon, don't worry," she assured her daughter who was touched with depression. Kagome bluntly changed the subject in order to rid her daughter's pout with excitement,

"You know, your father and I got you a very special gift that you'll love. Now come on, we're just about to do cake,"

Kaede stood with her mother and they both exited the room and made their way for the kitchen. When they got to the kitchen, Kaede's eyes widened in happiness to see InuYasha standing at the doorway to the room. She rushed into his arms and he embraced her and swung her around in his grasp. She smirked as he asked rhetorically,

"What? You thought I'd miss my own daughter's birthday?"

"Welcome," Kagome cooed softly with a grin to her features as she greeted her expected mate. He smiled and glanced back to his daughter with a smirk as she exclaimed,

"We're just about to do cake!"

He let her out from his grasp as she left the room to find her uncle, Souta. InuYasha walked over to the table and took a seat as well as Kagome. Kagome pushed herself nearer to the table while curling a strand of hair behind her ear.

"So," Kagome started to ask, "You got it, right?"

InuYasha's eyes flickered a bit while he gazed down at the wooden table. He could see the oil glazed over the wood reflecting the light from overhead. It was a habit in Kagome's family house-hold that they rub oil on the wood so that it sparkled underneath the hanging kitchen lights.

"Yah," He started his reply by dragging his gaze to her's, "Of course I did. You just gotta wrap it,"

She smiled and led him to the next room to wrap the gift for their daughter.

"Mom!" Kaede hollered through the house as she went looking for her parents.

"Dad?!" She yelled again as she came to a stop at her mother's old room where the door was shut. She slowly opened the door to see her parents standing side by side in front of a present.

"What are you doing?" Kaede asked suspiciously to her innocent parents who had fake smiles curving their mouths.

"We just had to wrap your gift," InuYasha explained.

"Kay well it's time for cake," Kaede announced as she heard Souta bellow for the family. Kagome grinned and grabbed onto the gift and brought it into the kitchen.

***

After cake, it was finally time to open gifts. Kaede reached over and took her uncles, grandmother's, and great-grandpa's gift into her grasp and tore the wrapping off to reveal a thick white blanket with golden thread knitted into it. She smiled and was glad with her gift. Kagome looked at InuYasha with a beaming smile after she handed her daughter their gift. She carefully unwrapped the present which revealed something extraordinary. Her gift, was the Shikon no Tama. She took it into her hands with her eyes glittering from the jewel's glow.

"But...you know I don't want to become full demon," Kaede said inquisitively as to why the would give her something so important for something she didn't crave like her father used to.

"We know, it's for you to protect," Kagome assured.

Kagome gracefully took the necklace from Kaede and placed it around her neck. Because of her pure soul, she could feel the warm goodness of the jewel. Kaede embraced her parents and thanked them for the gift.

"But why me? After all that searching and then you give it to me?" she asked in curiosity.

"Listen Kaede, you are our daughter, and we thought who better to protect it then our own child," InuYasha replied to her query.

She smiled and gently rubbed the jewel with her thumb while promising,

"I'll gaurd it with my life,"

***

InuYasha pulled back the hanging door which led to the outdoors, and stepped out into the setting sun beams. He casually made his way over to the sacred tree with no particular reason. He glared at the scared bark with his thoughts entranced on that specific spot. His thoughts were rudely interrupted by a small rock to the head. He rubbed his head and gazed up to his daughter who had a playful smirk. He jumped up to the branch she sat on with the rock wedged between his thumb and index finger. His angry features turned soft at her father melting smile. He was the most intolerant, rudest, cocky half demon around who took no bull, for a lack of a better word, from anyone, but when it came to his daughter, he couldn't help but forgive her for anything she did. She welcomed him up to the tree as he rested his buttocks comfortably on the rather large tree branch.

"What are you doing in here? Aren't you tired from your party today in the future?" He asked in curiosity. She shrugged, not making the effort to explain with her words. The sky began to darken as they sat in the tree talking away about any subject that rose. Kaede had always got along best with her father. Maybe it was because they were so much alike and they understood each other. But for whatever reason, they were very close.

"Dad," Kaede started to say as she gazed up to the broad jewelled sky, with the stars twinkling in her own eyes' reflection. He turned to his daughter as a faint wind blew by the two, bringing their silky manes along with it's misguided path. She smiled as she continued,

"How come no adventure comes up when I'm around?"

He couldn't help but chuckle at her unexpected question and replied,

"You'll have your own adventure one day,"

She let out a small groan and whimper to which InuYasha continued to laugh.

"But when?"

"You're so impatient,"

"Come on!"

"Well how bout this, even thought I know, one day, you will have your own fun, I'll take you on any adventure I go on. How's that sound?"

She grinned from ear to ear at his proposition and she sighed in content. He grinned back as she rested her head on his shoulder. They continued to sit on the tree's branch while peering up to the celestial skies which glittered with their jewels of stars.

"Come on..we better sneak back into our beds before your mom wakes up and finds us both gone," InuYasha warned. Kaede giggled and hopped down after her father and followed him through the forest. As they walked, she noticed a shooting star fly through the dark sky, briefly lighting it up. She stopped in her tracks and closed her eyes to make a wish. InuYasha turned around and couldn't help but smile at his daughter so deep in wish-thought. She opened her eyes and smirked as her wish was made.

"What did you wish for?" he asked curiously. She shook her head and told him that if she revealed her wish, it wouldn't come true.

***

Kaede slipped into her futon after her father had given her a goodnight kiss, and glared up to her window where a portion of the sky was present. She hoped that her wish, which was to have an adventure of her own, would come true. She finally became fatigued, and fell into a deep sleep. Only to await the next morning's unexpected activities.
