Lost , Stuck Somewhere In Between

By Inuyashas Youkai

"I 'am sorry I hurt you , Kagome .. Come back to me mate , I need you .. Please don't leave me , not like this ..." was said before biting down firmly , rubbing small circles upon her engorged belly , as he reclaimed the mate once forgotten .

But as the ties between them reformed between them , so had the memories , reminding him of the day it all started , the day he left her , hating his own mate , and shattered that of her soul , as the ties binding them were violently ripped from her , the moment Inuyasha vanished for sometime from her life ...

Brown eyes opened suddenly after hearing those words, and then soon found that she was still in the grassy valley from which she once was before she lost consciousness . Looking up into young amber eyes , as a child held her close snuggling her so that she would know that he wouldn't ever leave her , making her feel safe , and protected .

"Inuyasha , where are we ?"

"Silly girl , we haven't gone anywhere .. I was just watching you, and waiting for you to come back to me.."the child said ..

~ On The Other Side ~

"Dammit ! Why isn't she moving ? Fuck , Me ! Come on Kagome , please mate .. Come back to me , please.." Inuyasha while holding her still, frantically beginning to kiss her, once receiving no response following the act of strengthening the mark , once reclaiming what was his again ..

The others looked upon him sadly , as Sango , and Miroku busted into the room , then looking to Sesshomaru to find him weakly shake his head in the negative, and back to watch the painful sight of Inuyasha hurriedly trying to revive his mate , and pups inside her , by shaking her still form , while placing kisses where ever his lips could reach , as he held her .

"Inuyasha , may I ?" Miroku offered , slowly holding his hand outward to the stilled form within his tightened embrace ..

Not finding the sound within his voice to answer, Inuyasha merely nodded slowly , desperately in shock for what had happened , or why things ended up this way ,as he only just saw the evidence that it had..

Upon acceptance of the monk's assistance , Miroku made his way over to the deadly frozen hanyou-miko snuggled up against her mate's chest , as it shook heavily with his sobs, so he could get a closer look within the aura of the girl's once shattered soul. Closing his eye's while laying one hand lightly upon her forehead while searching rapidly behind fluttering eyelids , as though that he was merely in rem sleep , moments passed before his contact with her was severed , and his violet eyes opened widely in astonishment.

"What is it ?" Inuyasha spat worriedly .

" Excuse me Mr Taisho .." Miroku stated curiously ..

Chuckling , the Inu brother's father answered.."Yes , good monk ..? What can I do for you ..?"

" Um , maybe you can help me understand something , how was Kagome able to met Sesshomaru , and Inuyasha , as children when she didn't exist yet at the time.."

"What !Who the hell cares ! What does that have to do with anything , huh?"

"I am getting to that Inuyasha .."

Clearing his throat , their father answered.."When Sesshomaru used the Kuroi sword in connection with here it opened a gateway where it lead to my resting spot, and because of her state unknown until she had gotten their , I had taken her like I said before where time stands still in the realm of memories kept within that graveyard .. Izayoi as well as myself thought because Inuyasha wasn't there to confirm , settling her worries , and disturbing her natural aura , that the living memory of Inuyasha as a child would do quite well to do so, until the time would come where Inuyasha as he is now could do so himself.. Why do you ask ?"

"I'd say it worked , a little too well .."Miroku confirmed .

"What ! What the hell are you saying!"Inuyasha spat angrily .

"I 'am saying Inuyasha, that her soul healed yes , but I .. I don't know how to say this though it seems that her soul is also lost , and confused between yourself now , and that of a child . She doesn't understand what's happening only that one form has hurt her , and one hasn't , other than that she doesn't see a difference , and the one who hasn't , the child Inuyasha , even though he knows it's wrong , is keeping her from seeing the truth in order to protect his future mate in getting hurt by himself , later on ." Miroku offered hesitantly , knowing of the following outburst that was known to come ..

"What the fuck? Doesn't she recognize that at the time I am a mere child ! Does he think that he'll be able to take care of her or those pups , Damn I was an idiot !"

"The fact that you still are , remains to be seen .. Although because time stands still , as long as she stays with him , those pups will never be born, the will eventually die inside her fading away with her , when her body can no longer survive in that state. And no , she doesn't the only thing that she feels is the comfort surrounding her , one that will never leave, as her future life mate, within a period of time that never ends or moves forwards , except through you, but with your younger self's refusal to let her go , to face the pain that will come with it , the end will be the same nevertheless, if the monk's theory is proven correct, unless you , yourself can make her see otherwise .." Sesshomaru responded ..

"Tell me how , and I'll do it !" Inuyasha ferally exclaimed ..

" You must use the same method that Kagome used to enter it , with the combined effort with Sesshomaru , using the Kuroi sword, but you must use caution . The child that was you doesn't see that he is doing anything wrong , only that he is protecting what is his .. Also you must not hurt him , for your only hurting yourself " Their father explained .

Before long , Inuyasha , as well as Sesshomaru both took the hilt of the Kuroi , and then quickly slamming its tip into the floor , forcing the opening wide open for them to pass to the other side where a mate was lost , and stuck somewhere in between ..
