The field was full of Daisy's and baby's breath. A woman watched as the soft wind gently caressed the young girls ivory curls. Her purple dress was waving in the wind the rays from an early sun reflected the rosy hue that adorned her chubby cheeks. She danced and pranced around plucking the flowers as she went. Her eyes so innocent and full where a soft honey. It was a complete blissful euphoria as she stood watching the little girl for hours.
It was then that her cloudless Sky's became gray and crowded. She watched in horror as the Field where the little girl was standing slowly died and withered away. The sun became gray and the wind became violent. A monster crawled out from the shadows its eyes a blood red and its fangs elongated, she watched as the monster killed the young girl her heart ached for her.
She cried out trying to run and grasp on to the little girl but it seemed that they kept getting farther and farther from her reach, she ran until her legs bled and exhaustion over came her by ten fold.
She stood in the lifeless bloody field alone sobbing for the lost life of the precious little girl. It was then that monster came from the shadow exposing its pale beautiful face.
It was all she could whisper before she lost her self in blackness.
"Shessomaru."

"You have to help her."
It was all he could think about. Helping the feeble miko before him, he hate being helpless watching as she writhed in pain. He knew he had a choice to save her or kill his fetus. Potions, witches, some of the numerous possibility's that only gave him half baked out comes. He knew the answer to his problem was the only thing on this world that he wished to avoid.
Blood.
Not his only but also some one from a higher decent someone who was more powerful than he.
His mother.
She had to perform the kiss of life so that Kagome could live. But he in turn would have to rid of his child, who was Kagome to him? She was a friend a lover and a mate. But she was more than that and he knew. She was a mother and a sister, he could not deny the importance her existence was to him. It pained him to think of her dead body laying there lifeless.
He knew he had to get his mother, he knew it was time to face the bitch.
Yami Tashio. His mother and Kagomes only chance at life.

She stood at the balcony her white hair blowing with the wind. She closed her eyes with content, her bleak lifeless silver eyes. Her nose was pointed much like the rest of the angles that where splayed across her face. She felt him coming and she couldn't help the bitter laugh the left her mouth as she recognized his presence.
It had been 53 years since she had spoken to him. Sesshomaru her son.
He abandoned her to fend for her self while she fell into the darkness after her own mate had abandoned her for the worthless human. She pleaded that he would stay but he left his last words to her where, "Get over it." She swore to him there would be a day where he would need her and she would not come.
Today was her day. After years of being alone in this castle today was the day she had the chance to be needed, and she would not comply with ease.
Her Mate left her for the ravened hair human whole stole his heart, and the effect of that was him being killed in his moment of weakness leaving his bastard half blood son alone in the world to fend for him self and they got what they deserved, The human was dead and so was her former mate. Life worked out in her favor. But in turn it left her bitter and cold.
"Son."
Her voice was cold and mocking.
"Mother." His voice was equally as cold but he was a serious as the blade he held in his hand.
"Now, now son is that anyway to win my favor?" She said walking around the room.
"I have no time for your games I am in need of your assistance." He said firmly his hand tightening around the sword.
"Ah." She laughed. "Finally the day has come where you need me."
For a long time there was silence as she pretended to think over his request.
"No." She laughed again taking enjoyment out of seeing the pain on her sons face. "Don't be a bitch!" He barked out his control slipping by the minute. "You should know by now that I am the queen of the bitches, I have been scorned and my son if there is something you ever learn from your dear old mom is that you know better than to ever deal with a woman scorned, I promise you the outcome is a fate worse than the fiery pits of hell." She sneered leaning back on to the balcony the wind created an ominous feel to back up her threat.
"My mate she needs help she is dieing." He said pleadingly.
All he got was a bitter laugh in return. "A mate, who is going to leave you now this sounds familiar." She walked around him her eyes softening showing her hurt and concern. "Get over it." She said her eyes once again hardening.
It him hard the pain and the panic. He understood the pain she must have felt but these feelings of regret where fighting against the feeling of disgust and rage. He growled at his mothers answer.
"I have never apologized for anything in my life mother but i do regret being so callus to you but i beg you to forgive me I need you to save her." He looked at her again standing tall waiting for rejection but it was clear that the shock on her face was making her reconsider.
And she did, she expected a lot of things from her cold son but never had she expected a apology so she knew that this woman must have melted his heart and as a mother she knew she had to let it go and help him, the rest would come later.
"Lets go."

She didn't understand why the baby was hurting her so much. The other two hurt but not this much, she knew sesshomaru was going to try and help her but she also knew that it involved getting rid of the baby. She didn't know why she needed to do this maybe it was the dream of the sweet little girl or maybe it was being a mother that got her like this but she wanted to protect the baby inside of her.
It pained her to think that sesshomaru was the monster that was trying to kill there baby it made her wonder if he really cared for his child at all.
Her stomach burned but at the same time she felt cold. It was as if there was a war waging in her stomach good and evil. She sat there praying that her baby was ok in all of this. she felt weak and helpless.
If only she was a full demon she would be able to have this baby, she knew it was her fault for continuing to have relations with sesshomaru, it was also her fault that her baby was dieing all of this was her fault that she was sure of.
"Please god help my baby"

Inuyasha was torn between his new found respect for sesshomaru and his love for kagome. He wanted to go to Kagome and tell her to let go of the baby and be with him build a life with him but he knew that he would kill sesshomaru, or rather be killed by sesshomaru. He wanted to help her but he knew that he couldn't and it burned him inside.
Sango sat there in Mirokus arms crying and praying for her friend and her baby, she knew the risk and what was at stake.
She had faith in sesshomaru and she knew he would save her no matter the cost.

Help had arrived as Yami walked through the gates she watched as fear struck the guards she passed. Everyone dropped to the knees whispering praise and hello's. She walked with her head up high out of the entrance and into the castle as she continued there where more shocked faces and scattered people.
The hallways that she use to know as her own where different though they had not changed in appearance but it seemed warmer nicer some how.
Was it because of this woman?
As she approached the room she felt her son holding her back. "Listen mother there is something I need to tell you." He said his eyes firm. "She is human a former companion of my half brother Inuyasha who now resides in this very castle." There was a long moment of silence between the mother and the son.
"You mated a human?" She said calmly.
"Yes."
"Now I know I must save her, I have to know how this bitch melted your human hating heart."

She approached the bedside slowly ignoring the other people in the room. She stopped for a moment surprised by the humans beauty she looked at her long raven hair and plump pink lips, her eyes even closed looked big and open her lashes where long and thick. She uncovered the girl looking her naked body she heard her son remove the people from the room. She was shocked to see the petite beautiful body that laid beneath. "Is that nessacary?" Sesshomaru said annoyed.
"No but I was curious." She said covering the girl once again. "She looks young how old is she?"
"She just turned 16." He said with a tinge of guilt.
"Hm i see very young her body indicates she has had child prior to your union?" She said with feirce eyes.
"Yes she has had two children but not prior."
"Two my word did you take her when she was 13?" She said with wide eyes. "That is horrible Sesshomaru, You are almost a 634 years old this girl is barley and teenager it is wrong I know some lords take younger spouses but you know that it was wrong, you know how i raised you and this is not it!"
"Mother I took her when she was 15 It was an accident I never intended to mate and pup her but she showed up here pregnant I couldn't refuse my mate, she has grown on me." Sesshomaru said with regret.
"So how did she manage to have two half breeds in one year it is impossible."
"I will explain later mother when she awakes please the baby is killing her I need you to rid her of it." He said is voice emotionless despite the pleading words.
"Hm I see ok I will do it."
She stepped up to the girl slowly sitting beside her she slowly bit her lips letting the blood flow freely down her chin, she then lifted the girls head up to her own. And slowly she place her lips on to the humans moving her mouth to open the girls. She kissed her until she felt her rouse, she felt as the girl responded kissing her in return. It was then when Kagome licked off the last of the blood when she parted panting.
Her son sat beside his brother uncomfortable by the display. The woman watched as Kagome opened her eyes surprised to see the bright blue orbs staring at her.
She got up and allowed her son to sit beside his mate.
She walked behind him watching as they interacted. She didn't understand the confusion that was displayed on the girls face as she slowly touched her sons face.
She watched as Inuyasha stood at the end of the room his face clearly showing his want for the girl that laid in the bed. The woman and man that entered the room looked so glad to see the girl awake. in fact every one seemed to be so caught up in the fact that she was ok that they almost missed the words that left her mouth.
"Who are you?"
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
"What do you mean you don't know who I am?" Sesshomaru said surprised.
"No I don't." She said pushing him out of the way to stand up on her own, that is till she realized she was nude so she waited till sesshomaru gave her a robe before standing up.
"Am I supposed to know you as well?" She said pointing to his mother. "No girl your not." She said coldly.
"Hm." She started to stare at the room silently till she spotted Inuyasha.
"Inuyasha!" She said before running toward him and jumping into his arms and kissing his face. Sesshomaru growled loudly before yanking her out of his brothers arms.
"Ow your hurting me let me go please!" She said tears pouring from her face. "I want inuyasha your mean let me go I want Inuyasha!"
"No."
"I love him I want him please just let me go." She said as she bit and clawed at his hand.
"She acting like a four year old." Inuyasha said reaching for her when his brother finally let her go.
"Sesshomaru?" He asked when his brother didn't respond.
"Shes still pregnant the baby survived."
