Inutaisho was sitting next to his mother. He looked around it seemed like everyone was asleep. "Why him mom?"

"What do you mean?"

"Sesshomaru! How could you with him? How is he my father?" he demanded.

She sighed, "He is a good man, Inu."

"He almost killed me! He called his own brother a half-breed and then tried to kill him! He is a cold heartless man! He has no emotions!"

"Inuyasha and Sesshomaru have a long history. And did you even think about why he attacked him?" he snorted in response, "Inuyasha had just called you a brat and me a wench when he attacked him…"

"Yeah right mom, keep telling yourself that!" Inutaisho said annoyed.

"Inu…" she said stroking his hair, "Just get to know him…"

"I don't want to get to know him! He's an ass! Hell I bet he hates the fact that I'm a half-breed." He spit the last part out.

"Inu! Do not call yourself that!"

"What that's what he's probably thinking!"

"I think no such thing." They turned to see Sesshomaru staring at them. He got up and walked over to them.

"Yeah right." He said looking away from his intense gaze.

"Look at me." Sesshomaru demanded. Inutaisho's own golden defiant eyes met those of his father, "I only used that word to piss that idiot off. My mouth spoke before I thought about how it would insult you."

Inutaisho glared at him, "That doesn't change the fact that you're a cold heartless ass."

Sesshomaru closed his eyes at the insult, "Inutaisho!" Kagome hissed.

"What mom!? You always told me to tell the truth!" Kagome closed her eyes and put her head in her hands; seconds later they smelled tears, "Mom I- please don't cry!" he pleaded. He was about to touch her when Sesshomaru picked her up before he could. "Hey where the hell do you think you're going?"

He looked back at the boy, "Staying in this situation will not help her." He spat out. Sesshomaru ran off before he could say anything else.

"Shit." Inutaisho muttered before running after them following the scent.

He finally caught up to see her in his lap. He hid himself and made sure his scent was not blowing towards them. Sesshomaru was stroking her hair, "Sshh… it's alright. Calm down love…" he said soothingly.

"It's all my fault. All my fault." She sobbed.

"Nothing is your fault…"

"How can you say that? I screwed everything up! I- I left you I- I took your son away…. How are you not angry!?" she said calming down a little.

"I am mad-" he was cut off by her sobs. Inutaisho bit back his growl. How could he say that he was trying to calm her down when he says shit like that? "Sshh let me finish my little miko. I am mad at the situation but not at you."

"I caused the situation!" she said fitfully, "I caused you so much pain. I've caused Inutaisho pain! He was a half-demon living among humans! I saw the pain in his face when the other kids made fun of him or when he asked why his father wasn't there! It broke my heart to see him like that! And now he doesn't even know who you are!" she said sobbing. Inutaisho's heart broke.

Sesshomaru closed his eyes for a second he opened them and Inutaisho saw emotion on his face for the first time and it was pain, "It is not your fault the well closed. You couldn't have known…" he said softly.

"I'm so sorry… I'm so sorry Sessh… I'm so sorry Inu…"

Inutaisho walked out for the first time, "You have no reason to apologize." He said loud enough for his mother to hear.

Kagome looked up showing her son her tear stained face, "Inu…" she whispered.

"You have no reason to apologize… it wasn't your fault…" he said walking towards them. "I'm sorry for the way I acted it's-" he ran his hand through his hair, "It's just a lot to take in… my father's from the past and I'm part demon." he had to bite his tongue for this one but it was for his mom. He looked at Sesshomaru, "And I know I've been a real jerk and I'm sorry."

Sesshomaru let a small smile form on his lips, "I am sorry as well. My demon got a little too impatient when we first met."

He snorted, "And that's an excuse to try and kill me!?" 'Shit I'm trying to get along with him.' He took a deep breath, "Whatever it's in the past."

He sighed and wiped any remaining tears on Kagome's face, "Go love, get some sleep." She nodded her head and stood up. He stood up behind her. Inutaisho walked by his mom, "Inutaisho could you stay back a minute?" they both looked back at him, "I only want to talk."

Kagome pushed him towards Sesshomaru and walked on, "What?" Inutaisho asked.

Sesshomaru waited until Kagome was a good distance away and could not hear them, "I am not stupid I know you did not apologize for me or yourself, but for your mother."

He looked away, "So?"

"Thank you." He looked at him shocked, "You did what you didn't want to for Kagome and I thank you." His mind blanked at this statement, "Do you know who you are named after." Sesshomaru asked.

"No…" he said softly. He didn't even know he was named after anyone.

"Inutaisho was my father." He scoffed 'Ruin my name why don't you' he thought to himself, "He was a fearsome demon that not many could challenge, but he was also a very kind man. A man who saw no difference between demons and humans. A man who mated a demon and then later fell in love with a human." He sighed, "He was a man who died saving that human and his half-demon son." He pulled out one of his swords.

Inutaisho backed up at this, "Woah, what are you doing?" he asked.

"There is no need to worry it is a sword that can't cut."

"What do you mean? It's a sword it cuts."

He chuckled at the boy, "This was one of my father's swords. The sword that Inuyasha has is called Tetsusaiga it has the power to cut down a thousand demons at once. It was forged from my father's fang. Tenseiga, my sword, was also forged from my father's fang but this one can save a thousand lives. It cannot cut because it is not meant to take lives but to save them." He walked towards him and placed the sword in his hand, "Take care of it well, Inutaisho my son." He said walking away. He looked at the man's back as he retreated, "You need your sleep too, come." Usually Inutaisho would not follow such a command but before he could think about it he was walking next to the man.

He looked at Sesshomaru, "So you're pretty strong right?"

"Hn." Was his response.

"Hn? What does that even mean?" he asked a little irritated.

"You really are just like your mother." He said a smile on his face.

"What do you mean?"

"Your mother asked me the same question, she is kind and brave. You stood up to me even though I threatened to kill you to protect someone else. Those are all traits of your mother's."

"I guess…" he mumbled.

"By the way when is your day or night?" Sesshomaru asked.

"What?" Inutaisho asked.

"The day or night you turn fully human, when is it?"

"What the hell are you talking about?" he asked beyond confused.

"Every half-demon has a time when they turn fully human. Your claws will disappear along with the rest of your demon features." He just looked at him bewildered. Sesshomaru's eyes widened, "Do you not have one? Do you never turn human?"

"Nothing like that has ever happened to me!" Inutaisho said, "Great I'm even weird for a half-demon!"

"You are not weird. I think you are just stronger than any other half-demon. You are the son of a very powerful demon and miko. Actually you may be the first child between a demon and a miko."

"Is it really that weird!?"

"Well yes, it's odd for demons and mikos to even be near each other without trying to kill each other."

"So basically I should stay away people with spiritual powers like my mom?" Inutaisho asked.

"That would be best." They got close to camp and he noticed that Sesshomaru formed his face back into a mask.

"Why do you do that?"

"Do what?"

"Keep your face so emotionless."Inutaisho said.

"It is safest that way." Sesshomaru replied walking into camp. When they got there they saw that Kagome was still up. "What are you still doing up?" he asked.

"Waiting for you to return." She saw Tenseiga in Inutaisho's hand, "Tenseiga…" she said looking back at Sesshomaru. He just slightly nodded his head and she smiled brightly.

"It's time for us all to get some sleep. We have a long day ahead of us." They nodded their heads and laid down for the night.
