Sota and Sakura went into the kitchen to eat breakfast, Sota planned on telling Sakura about the well and everything. Miss. Higurashi walked up to Kagome, she bent down placing one hand on her head and the other on her stomach. The mother closed her eyes, after a few second's they flashed open and she smiled. Inuyasha felt hope flutter in his chest, she turned to him still smiling. Kagome will be okay, well as long as we keep up this same routine. Inuyasha felt like a giant weight lifted off his shoulder, thank kami! He turned to Kagome pulling her into a hug, he felt tears run down his face, thank you so much. I love you Kagome he whispered into her ear, he turned back to Miss. Higurashi. Is the... child going to be okay? Miss. Higurashi`s smile disappeared, I don't know. Inuyasha smelt her tears and then he could smell his own, he placed a hand on Kagome`s stomach. Please… please don't let our kid die, and don't you dare die. He wiped his tears and laid down beside Kagome, hours passed but Inuyasha didn't move a muscle. He saw it was now getting dark, he buried his nose into Kagome`s hair and closed his eyes. He fell into a gentle sleep, he woke up to hear a girl calling his voice. He bolted up seeing if it was Kagome, oh it is you Sakura. Sota`s future wife was sitting beside the couch waking him up. She had tears on her face, sitting beside them and she looked at Inuyasha with sad eyes. I think you should know how I met Kagome… Inuyasha`s ears perked, he knew that Kagome and Sakura had met each other. She looked off into space; my parents left me when I was young. My papa was sad he helped give birth to a daughter they were even sadder when they realized I was a miko. Inuyasha eyes widened, you're a miko? Sakura nodded, yes I am there are not many miko`s or demon`s around in this time and we keep hidden. They want me dead, Sakura said flatly. My miko powers protected me from the knifes and fire they used to try to kill me. I remember how they would kick me and smack me, how I would put up a barrier and they would fall back hurt. One day they left me, they left me in the woods hoping no one would find me and I would die. I couldn't move because they wounds that were on me. I laid there ready to die, no one loved me and I didn't love anyone. I was emotionless I stared at people with blank eyes; people who saw me ran away or said I was a demon. It was very painful, to be called names and to have no one to share your pain with, I was three years old and in a forest with wounds that were getting infected. With wounds that wouldn't stop bleeding, two days passed as my wounds got worse. I was getting light headed my vision blurry, I remember that morning I saw a girl walk then run toward me. She had jet black hair and a light blue dress on, she had deep brown eyes and pale but beautiful skin. She picked me up she looked only two or three years older than me. She carried me to her house and she took us through her window. She didn't let her mom know I was there and she fixed me up, because she lived at a shrine she had ancient things I could use for myself without anyone realizing. So soon I was healed, she looked at my eyes. The stare of no emotion, I could sense demon powers and miko powers within her. It was strange but I didn't care, someone actually took the time to help me. She looked into my cold eyes and she didn't call me names or run away like everyone else. I could tell she had the same emotion deep inside her; she was just like me in a way. Sakura looked up and met Inuyasha`s eyes, Kagome is stubborn and she has a temper but she also has a loving side. She used her loving side with me; she was the only person to do that. A month after we met she asked me question I ended up telling her about my life than she told me something. She said that her dad died before she was born and he gave her all the money in his possession, she said she would use it to save me. Sakura continued to tell Inuyasha what happened as she remembered that day. SAKURA! Sakura looked up to see Kagome in front of her hiding something behind her back. What is it, Sakura mumbled giving a blank stare at Kagome. She pulled out a light pink kimono from behind her back, I GOT THIS FOR YOU! Sakura stared in surprise, tears spilling from her eyes. She ran up and hugged Kagome. This- this is the first gift I have ever received, Kagome knelt down. Now I must talk to you about something important. I looked at her confused, what? Do you want to never see me again or stay hidden from everyone else? I blinked a couple times, did she really ask that? Stay with you! She nodded, ok come with me. She picked me up in her arms and ran out the room toward the woods, I held the kimono closer. Thank you I whispered, I smiled for the first time in my life. She held me tighter and we arrived next to a small waterfall, here`s our home. I stared; there was a house small but enough room for three people. Kagome smiled, I built this for you and me this is your new home. I looked at Kagome, tears in my eyes. Thank you so, so much! I ran into the house and looked around there was a bed the one she showed me in a catalog and I told her I loved. It had sides that came into each other as they go up and a fabric`s around it all like a princesses bed, I ran and fell onto the bed. I hugged the sheets and I looked around there was a two person table, the kind you kneel down at. I smiled and ran back to Kagome, thank you so much! Kagome just smiled at me, I smiled back. Inuyasha looked at me sadly as Sakura told him what happened, than he asked her a question that brought tears to her eyes. How did the two of you separate? Sakura cleared her throat and wiped her tears, Kagome spent a lot more time with me rather than her family. She would come to me in the morning, she left at dinner and would come back as soon as her family fell asleep. She would come back and put me to sleep then she would go back home to get some sleep so she could come back the next day. Than one day she started school, she only came to see me at night. I grew a routine of sleeping at day and staying awake with Kagome at night, but she never slept. She was seven and I was four. I caused her to be tired all the time one day she didn't come, I waited for her but she didn't show up. The same thing happened every day for months, I ate plants around the woods surprisingly I didn't eat anything poisonous. I cried wanting to go find her but she said no matter what to wait for her in our little house, one night I sat in my little bed waiting. That was the night she showed up, I didn't recognize her at first her pale but beautiful skin was a bright white palest I have ever seen. Her hair didn't seem to glow and her eyes were dull and lost, she called my name. I then knew it was her, I ran up and hugged her than I heard voices of people. She smiled weakly at me than fell to the ground, I shook her but she wouldn't wake up. The people arrived and stared at me, the people said things like. She really wasn't lying! Is the girl safe? Is she sick too? Some of the people ran to Kagome and took her away the others pinned me down and I passed out. Inuyasha nodded slowly, this was the girl that claimed Kagome as her mom. As if reading his mind she said, I always called her mommy and Kaggy she would giggle and hug me. Inuyasha smiled softly, Kagome was really caring even at this age. Sakura frowned again and continued her story; I woke up in a hospital they asked me who my parents were and I said. KAGOME! I WANT TO SEE MOMMY! They looked at me confused and I said, the girl who was sick is my mommy. They stared wide eyed then they laughed. Those people were monsters, I cried into my blanket. They let me get out of bed for a moment I shot out of the room and ran down the hall looking for Kagome. I found her in a room people running after me I ran into her room and noticed some people in there so I hid. I soon found out they were Kagome`s mom and her mom was holding a boy my age that must be Kagome`s brother an old man stood by the women he was her grandfather. I heard the doctor say Kagome didn't have enough sleep or food. I came out from hiding, MOMMY WAS SHARING MEALS WITH ME AND VISITING ME AT NIGHT! They all turned and saw me, who are you? I smiled softly, I pointed at Kagome. She is my mommy! I am Sakura Higurashi! They stared at me, I looked at Kagome who was waking up. MOMMY! I ran up to her and she hugged me, Sakura I am sorry about all of this I should have let you go to an orphanage instead of staying with me. I smiled weakly, but I liked staying with you in the house in the woods. Kagome smiled and handed me a piece of paper, I took it and opened it. Kagome smiled, it's a poem I wrote for you. They aren't going to let me keep you no matter how much I beg I frowned. MOMMY PLEASE DON'T LET THEM TAKE ME! I was in tears then she starting crying too. Please Sakura I gave you the perfect name now read the poem and keep it close to your heart, we will meet again! I feld onto Kagome that day and hugged her I held the poem close for years, Sakura pulled out a piece of paper. It read,

Sad Sakura

Sad Sakura it`s sad but true

You are always in the blue

Sad Sakura remember our smiles

And our memories will last for long whiles

Sad Sakura it hurts me to see you cry

I would very much rather die

Sad Sakura smile for me

Very soon we will again meet

Sad Sakura don't you frown

And forget those bullies don't them get you down

As a cherry blossoms petal falls from its tree

Change you sadness into glee

Now your life can restart with you having an open heart

Happy Sakura please be happy please be happy for me

Inuyasha read the poem she had handed to him, he smiled and saw there were tear stains on the paper. Sakura looked up, I was sent to an orphanage some nice people adopted me and I lived not too far away from the orphanage. I called the man dad I called the boy I grew up with brother but not once did I call that women mother. My mother is Kagome Higurashi and my future husband is Sota Higurashi and I am proud to say that. Inuyasha nodded, he stroked a hand through Kagome`s hair. Sakura smiled, I am glad mommy found someone she really loves and loves her back. Sota came out from his hiding spot, Sakura looked at him with sad eyes. How long have you been there? The whole time he responded quietly, Sakura smiled. She walked over and kissed Sota, I love you my past doesn't matter anymore I hate those people who gave birth to me. I love you Sota and your sister was my mother in a way I love her too, Sota hugged her. I am glad you found happiness after that much of a struggle, they walked off to the room they were staying in and Inuyasha looked down at Kagome. Kagome please get better soon, he laid his head down and fell asleep once more.
