Chapter 119: A Horrible Past Unveiled; Family

Ani-ue or Onii-san: Big Brother

Ane-ue or Onee-chan: Big Sister

(In a forest in Feudal Era Japan; Many years ago before Naraku)

We find ourselves, in a deep forest of Feudal Era Japan, in the mid-afternoon, we find a small red clad child like figure around the age of four if he were human with the dog like ears and crying since he was lost. That's right; the little boy walking in the forest alone was Inuyasha, when he was a small boy with small sandals that fit his feet.

Young Inuyasha says, in a child like version of teenage Inuyasha's voice while solemnly and fearfully, "Where's Kenochi? Where's my big brother?" Young Inuyasha calls out, "Kenochi! Kenochi!" Young Inuyasha calls out, in a child like version of his voice, "Anyone!" When he received no answer, Young Inuyasha then starts to sob fearfully and he runs deeper in forest to find Kenochi and sits by a tree. When he sees a blue butterfly flying in front of him and lands on a flower, Young Inuyasha says, while dying his tears and with a smile, "Hi!" Young Inuyasha runs over to the butterfly, but it flew away from him and Young Inuyasha yells out, "Come back!" Young Inuyasha runs after the butterfly and he calls out, "I'm not going to hurt you! I just want to look!" The butterfly lands on a trunk of a tree, real high, and Young Inuyasha says, plainly, "You want me to climb over there!" Young Inuyasha runs as fast as he could to jump onto the tree branch as high as he could, but not high enough, and tries to grip the tree branch with his little claws, but it didn't work and he comes sliding down.

Inuyasha gets up on his feet, dusts his red kimono clean, and walks away from the tree to find his older half-brother. As he was walking, Inuyasha hear a rustle in the bushes and he turns to the noise with a fearful expression on his face. Inuyasha says, fearfully, "Butterfly!" Inuyasha slowly walks towards the bushes and then, something jumps out and knocks him down on his back. Inuyasha looks up to see a huge ogre appearing above him looking at him, hungrily. Inuyasha was now scared that he was going to eaten since he wasn't strong enough to defend himself. The ogre goes in for the kill and Inuyasha braces himself to get eaten, until he hears the sound of the ogre getting chopped into pieces. Inuyasha looks the remains of the demon in confusion as he turns to see a tall figure, behind him, which appears to be a late teenage version of his elder half-brother, Sesshomaru with his left arm in place, behind him with his poison whip.

Inuyasha got on his feet, dusts himself, and he asks, while sniffing him, "Hey, you smell like my sisters and my big brother!" Sesshomaru looks down at Inuyasha with emotionless eyes while retract his poison whip and Inuyasha says, bowing his head, "Thank you for saving me, anyways!" Sesshomaru walks off wordlessly leaving Inuyasha behind.

Inuyasha yells out, seriously, "Hey, wait! Come back!" Inuyasha runs after Sesshomaru and he calls out, "Hey, why do you smell like my sister and brother anyways!" Sesshomaru keeps walking while ignoring his younger half-brother and Inuyasha calls out, annoyed, "Hey, I'm talking to you! Can you hear me!"

Sesshomaru says, while eying him and walking, "Of course, I can hear you, boy! The only reason why I killed that demon was that he was in my way! It had nothing to do with you! Now, stop following me or I will kill you, half-breed!"

Inuyasha then stops at that word and he says, perplexed, "Half-breed?" Just then, Sesshomaru takes up in the skies and Inuyasha calls out, "At least, you can tell me where to get home! I'm lost!" Sesshomaru then ignores Inuyasha's callings and when Sesshomaru left, Inuyasha then resumes sobbing in defeat.

(Elsewhere in the forest; on the meanwhile)

At another part of the forest, we find a medium sized figure racing through the forest looking for someone or something. The figure stops and we look closely to see a pre-teen version of Kenochi, wearing a child like version of his usual kimono, minus the armor and he was looking for his younger half-brother.

Kenochi calls out, in a child like version of adult Kenochi's voice, "Hey Inuyasha! Inuyasha, where are you!"

Just then, a female voice calls out, "Kenochi, any sign of him!" Kenochi turns to see mid-teenaged Korvo with his left arm still in place and no claw marks on his face and a female dog demon walking towards him.

The female dog demon stood real tall almost to late-teenage Sesshomaru's height with her long silver hair long tied in a tied in a ponytail similar to Melody's hairstyle, narrowed blue eyes that had kind and fierce look, and she had blue marks on her face. She had claws that were the same size as a dog demon humanoid of her age. She had a sexy slender female figure under a golden kimono with a red phoenix on the back of it. Her kimono was short, stopping just above her mid-thigh, showing off her sexy and seductive legs and the top of her kimono revealed a moderate cleavage of her well-developed, curved, and voluptuous bust. The kimono was tied closed with a red silk sash that was tied in a large bow in the back with sandals and a fluffy tail similar to Sesshomaru's wrapped around her slender and feminine waistline. Wrapped around her back was a sheath and sword, similar to Norman from Mighty Max and she has a sheath for a sword similar to the Light Hawk Sword that Tenchi has from his 'Tenchi Muyo' anime series.

Kenochi says, in a reply, "Not a clue, Suzame! Zera and Lady Izayoi will kill me if something bad happens to the runt!"

The female dog demon, Suzame, yells out, annoyed, "What were you doing, Kenochi! You were supposed to watch him!"

Kenochi says, seriously, "Hey! I was getting fruits and he happened to wonder off somewhere!"

Suzame says, in a serious tone, "Well, you better hope for your sake that Zera or Lady Izayoi don't find out what happened!"

Kenochi says, with a sigh, "No joke! Lady Izayoi may be a human, but she can be just as scary as Zera and my mother!"

Korvo sniffs the air and he says, seriously, "Its faint, but I'm picking up Inuyasha's scent."

Suzame asks Korvo, "Where!"

Korvo yells out, seriously, "This way!" Korvo dashes towards the direction of Inuyasha's scent with Suzame and Kenochi following him.

(Back with Young Inuyasha; sometime after)

At another part of the forest, around the river stream with many rocks, we find the young Inuyasha trying to get across the river as he tries to places his onto another rock to get across the river. As he was walking across the river, he sobs and he cries out, worriedly, "Mama! Ane-ue! Ani-ue!" The young dog hanyou was afraid that was still lost until he sees a little blue jay on a log near the river. Inuyasha calls out, happily, "Well, hello there, you're a pretty bird!" Inuyasha runs over to the log, lies down on his stomach to look at the blue jay, and he says, with a child-like smile, "It's nice to meet you! Do you have a name! I'm Inuyasha!"

When the blue jay flew away, Inuyasha goes in to try to catch it and he yells out, "Hey, don't go!" While doing so, the log that he was in falls into the river with Inuyasha on it. As the little dog hanyou was going down with the log, he screams out, worriedly and fearfully, "Mama! Ane-ue! Ani-ue! Help me!"

(Back with Korvo, Suzame, and Kenochi; on the meanwhile)

At another part of the forest, we find Korvo rushing through the path with Suzame and Kenochi following and Korvo says, seriously, "Inuyasha's scent is here! I'm sure of it!"

Suzame says, "I can smell him, but I'm also picking up Sesshomaru's scent!"

Kenochi says, worriedly, "This isn't good! Sesshomaru hates hanyous like Inuyasha! It's probably a good thing that I don't smell Inuyasha's blood or Zera and Lady Izayoi will kill me!"

Just then, a familiar male child voice calls out, fearfully, "Help me!"

Suzame yells out, seriously, "That's Inuyasha's voice! He's in trouble!" Just then, the three young dog demons approach the stream and sees a log where the little dog hanyou is trying all his might to stay on the log while screaming for his mother and older half-siblings.

Kenochi calls out, worriedly, "Inuyasha!" Kenochi rushes over to the aid of his younger half-brother with Korvo and Suzame following. As he was trying to keep a grip of the log, Inuyasha looks at shore and he says, happily, "It's Kenochi along with Suzame-onee-chan and Korvo-onii-san!" Inuyasha soon almost loses his grip and hits the water, while trying to grab hold of the log and screaming for help.

Korvo says, seriously, "He's not going to make it!"

Kenochi calls out, seriously, "Hang on, little bro! I'll be right there!" Kenochi runs over to save Inuyasha by taking flight with Korvo and Suzame following him in the same fashion. Kenochi flies over to his younger half-brother to grab him and he says, "Just a little further!"

Korvo yells out, pointing at a low cave on the river, "Kenochi, look up!" Kenochi looks up at the cave and seeing no way to get Inuyasha in time as the log with the little dog hanyou goes throw the cave.

Korvo yells out, worriedly, "Inuyasha!" Just then, Suzame flies upward over the mountain wall and over the small mountain. Suzame appears by the cave exit, which was where the river water was falling off and she sees the log coming up with the little dog hanyou crying in fear.

Suzame yells out, "Inuyasha!" Just as the log was falling out, she quickly grabs Inuyasha in her arms, safety. As the log hits the water below, Inuyasha saw that he was in Suzame's arms and he cries onto Suzame's chest, knowing that he's now safe. Inuyasha says, sobbing, "Oh Suzame-onee-chan, I was so scared!"

Suzame places her hand onto the young dog hanyou's head, putting it while kissing his forehead, soothing his cries and she says, kindly, "It's okay, Inu-chan! You're safe now!" Soon enough, Suzame takes the sobbing hanyou boy upwards and back to his older half-brother. Later on, Suzame and Inuyasha meet up with Korvo and Kenochi, who were near the shore and they see Suzame land on the ground.

Kenochi calls out, with a relief, "Little brother!" Kenochi and Korvo run over to them and Kenochi asks, "Is he okay?"

Suzame says, patting gently on the sobbing boy's head, "He's fine! He almost had a run-in with death."

After knowing that he was really safe, Inuyasha jumps off of Suzame's arms and into Kenochi's arms. Inuyasha cries out in his chest, "Oh Kenochi, I was so scared!"

Kenochi pats his younger half-brother's head and he says, with a smile, "There's no need to be scared now, little brother." Kenochi sets his younger half-brother down and he says, with a teasing smile while kneeling in front of him, "Look at you, Inuyasha, you're all wet!"

Inuyasha tells Kenochi, "I fell in the river, big brother! But I'm fine, now!"

Kenochi picks Inuyasha off the ground and he says, placing him on his back, "Anyway, it's get going, little bro! Zera and your mother must be worried!"

Inuyasha says, with a happily glee, "Okay, big bro!" Soon enough, the dog yokais and hanyou left the area and where their family was waiting for them.

(Within a human village; sometime later)

At a human village, we find many villagers doing their work like gardening with the men, cleaning with the women, and human children playing. Just then, Kenochi, Korvo, who had an arm full of wood, Suzame, and Inuyasha on Kenochi's back walked into the village, which earned them multiple glares at them, especially Inuyasha, who cower on Kenochi's back, and whisper harsh things about them especially Inuyasha with his half-demon in-heritage with Suzame glaring at them with a deadly glare.

Suzame yells out, nastily while shaking her right fist, "What are you people glaring at! If you have a problem about us bringing a child back to his village, then say it! If you do have a problem, the TOUGH DEAL WITH IT! If not, then I'll be sure to introduce your faces to my fists!" That got the villagers to go back to their own business while holding nervous and fearful facial expressions on their faces, while Korvo and Kenochi looked at her fearfully. Suzame says, with a snort, "Thought so!"

Inuyasha tells Suzame, with a kind smile, "Thanks, Suzame-onee-chan!"

Suzame says, with a kind smile, "Don't mention it, Inu-chan! Just ignore those idiots, they just too stupid to know what a special child you are." Suzame then kisses Inuyasha's left cheek, making him blush in embarrassment, which Suzame giggles at the sight.

Korvo says, with a smile, "Let's head to the castle, right away, guys!"

Kenochi says, with a sly smile, "Oh I see! You just can't wait until you see my sister so you two can lovely dovey!"

Korvo yells at Kenochi, annoyed while holding back his blush, "What's that, runt!"

Suzame gets in between the two dog yokai and she says, seriously, "In case, you've forgotten, you two, there's a child present and Korvo, you should know better!" Korvo huffs annoyed as they walked over to a palace village where they are greeted by Izayoi and a mid-teenage version of Zera.

Zera's teenage look has her long silver hair tied to a ponytail and narrowed golden eyes, showed kindness and strength. She had her own voluptuous female figure under her white kimono top in a style that showed her moderate cleavage for her perfect curves and yellow kimono skirt, which stopped half way near her kneecaps and showed her well toned legs, with sandals, and her claws were slightly shorter than her young adult ones.

Inuyasha jumps from Kenochi's body and runs over into his mother's arms while he was carried by her. Izayoi says, surprised, "Inuyasha, you're almost soak and wet!"

Zera asks, curiously, "What happened?"

Just as Kenochi was going to speak, Inuyasha says, plainly, "I accidently fell into a river, mama! I'm fine really! Kenochi and the others were the ones, who pulled me out of the water."

Izayoi says, with a loving smile, "As long as you're okay, sweetie!"

Korvo says, while carrying the logs in his arms, "Lady Izayoi, we brought some firewood for you!"

Izayoi tells Korvo, with a kind smile, "Korvo, that's awfully sweet of you! Thank you!"

Zera says, with a kind smile, "We really appreciate your help, Korvo!"

Korvo held back a blush and he says, plainly while putting the wood logs by the stairs, "It's no problem, Lady Zera."

Inuyasha asks Izayoi, curiously, "Hey mama, do you know of another dog demon that smelled almost like Zera and Kenochi?" Just then, Izayoi and the young dog demons looked at Inuyasha with surprised and horror filled looks, knowing who the little dog hanyou was speaking of.

Korvo says, worriedly, "Oh no! Don't tell me that Inuyasha had a run-in with Sesshomaru!"

Inuyasha says, perplexed, "Se-ssh-om-aru!"

Zera says, glaring at Kenochi, "Kenochi, what exactly happened? You were supposed to be watching him!"

Kenochi says, seriously, "Hey, I didn't know that he ran into Sesshomaru!"

Inuyasha asks, curiously, "Who's Sesshomaru?"

Suzame asks, while changing the subject, "Hey, where's the girls! We were planning on taking them to Zera's palace!"

Izayoi calls out to the palace, while setting Inuyasha down, "Melody! Megumi! Holly! Get out here!" Just then, a four year old child-like versions of Melody, wearing a child like version of her yellow kimono, but her long silver hair was down to her waist, instead of her usual ponytail, Megumi, wearing a child-like version of her orange and yellow kimono, but her long silver hair was down and Holly, who was wearing a green kimono similar to Rin's with her silver hair tied in two pigtails with red ribbons came running out of the palace and get down the stairs. Izayoi says, in a serious tone, "As you can see, all three of them, especially Melody, were punished for leaving the village without permission, yesterday. So, I'll let them go with you, just this once."

Melody says, in a child-like version of teenage Melody's voice, "I just don't want to deal with that stupid Renta!"

Izayoi says, perplexed, "Renta?"

Kenochi says, with a sigh, "He's a black haired dog hanyou that Melody gets into fights with."

Izayoi says, with a sigh, "Melody, you didn't…?"

Melody says, annoyed, "It's not my fault, mama! He's the one, who starts it with the insults!"

Izayoi tells her eldest daughter, scolding, "But still it's not lady-like to get into fights!" Izayoi then thinks in her mind, plainly, "Though, I was a ninja from my village, who fought every day until I met Inu no Taishou!"

Holly asks her mother, in a child-like version of teenage Holly's voice, "Mama, can Milo come with us?"

Izayoi asks, curiously, "Milo?"

Zera says, with a smile, "Her real name is NekitaKariba and she lives in a village almost near here! The reason why she nick named herself 'Milo' is that her name was too long! She's a hanyou like Inuyasha, Melody, Megumi, and Holly!"

Megumi tells Izayoi, in a child-like version of teenage Megumi's voice, "Mama, Milo is the one, who saved us from those demons, who attacked us!"

Izayoi says, curiously, "She did? Well, we need to find her!"

Just then, a child like version of NekitaKariba's voice calls out, "I'm right here, Lady Izayoi!" Soon enough, a child like version of NekitaKariba wearing a child like version of her kimono runs towards them.

Zera, Kenochi, Korvo, and Suzame were surprised at this and Zera thinks in her mind, seriously, "A Neko hanyou! The Neko clan is our enemy! However, she did save the girls' lives, so I guess that she can't be all that bad! Besides, she's only a little girl!"

Megumi says, happily, "Milo-chan!" NekitaKariba comes in and grabs Melody, Megumi, and Holly into a hug. NekitaKariba looks at Inuyasha and she asks, curiously, "Who's he?"

Inuyasha says, with a smile, "I'm Inuyasha!"

Melody says, in a plain tone, "He's our brother too!"

Zera says, with a kind smile, "I'm Zera and their older sister!"

Kenochi says, with a smile, "I'm Kenochi, their big brother!"

Suzame says, with a smile, "I'm Suzame!"

Korvo says, with a kind smile, "And I'm Korvo!"

NekitaKariba says, taking in their scents, "But Zera-onee-chan and Kenochi-onii-chan don't smell like hanyous!"

Kenochi says, with a kind giggle, "That's because we're only fully fledged yokai!"

Zera says, with a kind smile, "You don't have to worry, NekitaKariba. My brother, Korvo, Suzame, and myself are the only fully fledged yokais that doesn't look down on hanyous at all!"

Suzame says, with a smile, "That's right! It's not like you asked to be born a hanyou!"

NekitaKariba says, with a kind smile, "Thanks for your kindness and please call me, Milo! My real name is just too long!"

Izayoi says, with a kind smile, "Very well, Milo! Now, you all should get going now!"

The four dog hanyous wave to their mother and they say in unison, "Bye! Bye! Mama!" Soon enough, the dog yokais and hanyous along with the little neko hanyou, walk away from Izayoi as she waves over to them as they walked over to the direction of the village exit. As they were leaving the village, some of the villagers were sending little glares at them and most of them were sending fearfully glances at the yokai. After they left, one of the villagers says, in a serious tone, "We have to do something about this! Yokai coming to this village as if they own the place and those four half-breed brats are nothing but abomination!"

Another villager says, worriedly, "But what can we do? Those little monsters are Izayoi's children and you know about her ninja reputation as the 'Feline Flash of the Moonlight'!"

A third villager says, seriously, "No joke! If we harm them, then Izayoi would not be pleased and she even made friends with yokai! How can we take them on!"

The first villager says, in a serious tone, "We could always ask for a priestess, but Izayoi is still technically human and a very superior ninja from the Hidden Village in the Moonlight as well as the only survivor! She may actually kill the priestess before she could kill those little beasts!"

Another villager, a female, says, in a worried tone, "But what if those beasts harm our children? I don't want to be living in fear of them anymore!"

The second villager says, in a plain tone, "We just have to pray to the gods for a miracle!"

(In the Northwest lands; sometime later)

In the Northwest lands, we find NekitaKariba along with the dog yokais and hanyou walking towards a Japanese styled palace where Inu no Taishou gave to Zera after he died. Inu no Taishou was ruler of the lands of the west and he was well known through Japan.

NekitaKariba says, with child-like amazement, "Wow! This is a pretty castle!"

Zera says, with a kind smile, "I'm glad that you like it! It used to belong to my father as a matter of fact, this was one of his castles, and Kenochi will soon get one, when he becomes of age."

Kenochi says, in a plain tone, "Which won't happen for a very long time."

Just then, a young female child's voice calls out, "Lady Zera!" Everyone turns to see two female fox hanyou children towards them, one of them had red hair wearing a red kimono and the other had blue hair and kimono and the fox hanyous were twins.

The red haired fox hanyou child looks at NekitaKariba and she asks, curiously, "Who's she?"

Zera says, in a plain tone, "Her name is NekitaKariba and she's a hanyou child like the two of you!"

NekitaKariba says, with a kind smile, "You can call me, Milo!"

The blue haired fox hanyou tells NekitaKariba, in a child-like version of teenage Holly's voice, "Hi Milo-chan! I'm Yukiko!"

The red haired fox hanyou says, with a kind smile, "And I'm Sonoko! I'm Yukiko's sister! It's nice to meet you!"

NekitaKariba bowed and she says, "It's nice to meet you two!"

Sonoko asks, curiously, "Did your mama and papa died too?"

NekitaKariba says, plainly, "No! They're alive!"

Zera asks Yukiko and Sonoko, "What are you two doing here? I thought that you two were watching the other children!"

Yukiko tells Zera, seriously, "That's why we're here! Most of the boys are out of control and running amuck!"

Sonoko says, in a plain tone, "Renta told us to get you, Lady Suzame, Lord Korvo, or Kenochi-onii-chan, while she tries to gain control of the situation!"

Suzame says, in a serious tone, "We better get there, before, things get real ugly!"

Zera looks at NekitaKariba and she says, seriously, "Milo, you come with us!"

NekitaKariba says, with a nod, "Okay!" Soon after, everyone runs off while following Sonoko and Yukiko.

(Not too far at a nearby hut; Sometime later)

Near another hut, we find many half-demon boys running amuck, running or jumping, and pulling one of the hanyou girls hair, just then, one of the hanyou boys fell over. Towering over the fallen boy was a small black haired dog hanyou with ears similar to Inuyasha's and his sisters and wearing a green short-sleeved kimono top and dark brown pants with sandals, looking at the fallen boy with a serious glare.

The small black haired dog hanyou yells out, seriously, "Hey, cut it out!"

One of the other half-demon boys yells out, in a nasty tone, "You're not the boss of us, Renta!"

Renta yells out, seriously, "No, but I can kick your butt, wise guy!"

Just then, a familiar female voice calls out, "What is going on here!" Just then, all of the half-demon boys gasp in shock as they stop what they were doing and looked to see NekitaKariba, Melody, Inuyasha, Megumi, Holly, Zera, Suzame, and Korvo running towards them.

One of the half-demon boys yells out, shocked, "It's Lady Zera, Lady Suzame, Lord Korvo, and Kenochi-onii-chan!"

Suzame yells out, seriously, "I can't believe this! Lord Korvo, Lady Zera, and I were gone for a few minutes and you guys are acting like wild animals!"

Another half-demon boy says, in a plain tone, "We were only playing, Lady Suzame!"

Zera looks at one of the hanyou girls, who are crying with Korvo, comforting her, and she says, "Only playing, huh? You do realize that your games were hurting another!"

All of the half-demon boys say in unison, "Sorry, Lady Zera!"

Renta looks at NekitaKariba and asks, curiously, "Who's she? She smells like a cat!"

Kenochi tells Renta, in a plain tone, "Her name is NekitaKariba and she's a Neko hanyou and no, her parents are not dead!"

Korvo tells the hanyou girl, in his arms, in a kind tone, "It's going to be alright!" The hanyou girl lowers her sobs while knowing that she was safe.

Renta says, looking at Melody, "Oh the ugly is here!"

Melody yells out, angrily, "What was that!" Melody walks over to Renta and she says, seriously, "I couldn't get that!"

Renta says, nastily, "Then, your ears must be broken!"

Melody says, seriously, "That's not the only thing what's going to be broken!"

Zera comes in and she says, carrying Melody's small form away from Renta, "Melody, you know what your mother said!" Melody huffs and Zera says, glaring at Renta, who was smirking, "As for you, what you said was uncalled for!"

Renta winches at Zera's tone and Renta says, lowly, "Sorry, Lady Zera!"

Zera says, plainly, "I'm not the one, who you should be apologizing."

Renta looks at Melody, who placed down, with a small smirk on her face, and he says, grudgingly, "Sor…sorr…sorry!" Just then, Kenochi's hand was placed on Renta's head and Kenochi says, while Renta looks at him, "I know that apologizing must be hard, especially towards a girl that you get into fights with."

Renta says, seriously, "But Kenochi-onii-chan, I can't stand her!"

Melody says, with a snort, "Well, I hate you too, Renta!"

Renta yells out, nastily, "But I hate you even more!"

Melody says, seriously, "But I hate you even more than that!"

NekitaKariba asks Inuyasha, Megumi, and Holly, curiously, "Are they always like this?"

Holly says, with a nod, "Yes! Melody and Renta always argue with each other and fight each other as well."

NekitaKariba says, seriously, "But boys aren't supposed to hit girls! That's what my mama and papa said!"

Inuyasha says, plainly, "We learned not to stop the fight ourselves and get Zera, Kenochi, Korvo-onii-san and Suzame-onee-chan to stop the fight themselves!"

NekitaKariba says, plainly, "Oh!"

While watching Melody and Renta argue, Korvo says, plainly, "You think that one day they'll be mates!"

However, Melody and Renta heard what Korvo said and they yell out in unison, glaring at him, "You're kidding me!"

Renta says, seriously, "Yeah! What makes you think that I'd want to be mates with an ugly girl like her anyways!"

Melody says, nastily, "And what makes you think that I'd actually want to be with a nasty jerk like him!"

Kenochi comes in and he says, pulling the two dog hanyous away, "Okay, you two! That's enough!"

Suzame says, with a smile, "Alright, kids, I'm going to start making dinner real soon!" Soon enough, almost every hanyou child as well as the other dog yokai had their faces turn green and Inuyasha tells Kenochi, in a whisper, "Ani-ue, I don't like Suzame-onee-chan's food!"

Megumi says, with a disgusting look, "Yeah! It tastes yuckie!"

Kenochi says, with a sigh, "I know what you two mean! Suzame-onee-chan's cooking can scare even the most terrifying demons!" Just then, a rock hits Kenochi's head, making him yelp in pain and a lump was formed at the spot.

Suzame says, with a deadly glare while throwing the rock up and down, "Did you say something, Kenochi?"

Kenochi says, fearfully, "No ma'am!" That earned many giggles from the hanyou children, especially Kenochi's hanyou siblings.

Zera thinks in her mind, plainly, "Well, I can't say that he didn't deserve that!" Zera tells Suzame, "Suzame, I think that I should help you with the food!"

Suzame says, plainly, "Thanks for your help, Zera!" With that the two dog yokais walks into the palace to prepare the food with the others outside sighs with relief.

Kenochi says, with a smile, "That was close, everyone! Another bite of Suzame's food and we would have died!" That earned him another rock on the head thrown Suzame from the inside causing Kenochi to yelp in pain as another lump was formed.

Inuyasha asks Kenochi, "Ani-ue, who's Sesshomaru?"

Kenochi flinches at this and Holly asks Inuyasha, "Who's Sesshomaru?"

Renta says, in reply, "He's your…!" Korvo then comes from behind Renta and he says, with a nervous smile while covering Renta's mouth with his hand to shut him up, "…Let's not worry about that okay, Inuyasha!"

(Later at night)

At the back of Zera's palace, we find Zera, Suzame, NekitaKariba, Inuyasha, Melody, Megumi, and Holly outside of the palace in the back where a huge hot spring was at with the female yokais and hanyous with young Inuyasha were in there with all of them totally nude and their bodies were mainly submerged in the spring water except from the top portion of Zera's and Suzame's breasts to the top of their scalps and the young hanyous had their heads only shown. Even though he is a boy, Inuyasha was given permission to bathe with the females since he was still too young to know what modesty is. Everyone had a good meal which had ended with Melody and Renta having their arguments when they were fighting for a piece of meat. It took Zera and Kenochi to back them away from each other from killing each other.

Zera says, with a relieved sigh, "After eating good food, it's nice to soak in a nice hot spring to help digesting them."

Suzame says, looking at Melody, "It would have gone well if it wasn't for a certain someone decided to fight with Renta for a piece of meat."

Melody says, seriously, "Hey, I had that first! Why should I give that piece of him?"

NekitaKariba says, with a smile, "This hot spring is nice, Zera-onee-chan!"

Zera says, with a smile, "Thank you, Milo-chan!"

Inuyasha tells NekitaKariba, with a smile, "My papa gave had this hot spring and gave it to Ane-ue!"

Megumi tells Zera, curiously, "Ane-ue, in my village, the humans are real mean towards us! They give us this real mean stares and calls us 'monsters', 'beasts' and worse 'half-breeds'."

Zera says, while trying to keep her anger in check, "I see!"

Holly asks, curiously, "Do you know why, ane-ue?"

Zera says, with a sigh, "Well, Holly, there will always be ignorant people in the world that fail to see the good in people, humans or demon, alike. You see, humans and demons don't ever get along with each other. Ningens or humans see demons as nothing more than heartless beings while demons or yokais see humans as 'weaklings' and think low of them. Of course, hanyous like the five of you are treated even worse."

Melody tells Zera, with a smile, "But you're nothing like those yokai, ane-ue!"

Holly says, with a wide smile, "Yeah and the same for mama, ani-ue, Suzame-onee-chan, and Korvo-onii-chan!"

Suzame says, with a sly smile, "That's right, Holly-chan and don't you ever forget it!"

Zera says, with a smile, "There will be others that will put you don't, but don't let them get you down. Between you and me, they're just jealous that they don't have baby brothers or sisters that are really incredible as I do now!"

Suzame says, with a kind smile, "Yeah! Don't let those jerks push you around!"

NekitaKariba says, with a wide smile, "Don't worry! We won't!"

Holly asks Zera, curiously, "Ane-ue, Inuyasha told us about he met with this Sesshomaru. Do you know who he is?"

Zera and Suzame flinch at this and Suzame thinks in her mind, annoyed, "Perfect, Kenochi just had to get Inuyasha to wonder around for him to meet Sesshomaru. I hope that Sesshomaru didn't do anything that would harm him or he'll pay!"

Inuyasha says, with a nod, "Yeah! We want to know who this Sesshomaru is, ane-ue!"

Zera thinks in her mind, seriously, "I can't tell them that Sesshomaru is our elder brother and it will tear them apart to know that he doesn't want anything to do with them! I've got to think of something to get their minds off of him!" As if she was reading Zera's mind, Suzame splashes both Inuyasha and Holly with the hot water.

Inuyasha yells out, annoyed, "Suzame-onee-chan!"

Suzame says, with a sly smile, "Sorry, Yasha-chan, but it was too good to resist!" Just then, Suzame gets hits with a splash of hot water and she turns to see Holly with a sly smile on her lips.

Holly says, with a smile, "I got you, Suzame-onee-chan!"

Suzame says, with a sly grin, "You do realize, Hol-chan, that this means war!" Suzame then splashes the youngest dog hanyou with more hot water.

Zera yells out, seriously, "That's enough, you two!"

Melody says, seriously, "Yeah! You're getting hot water in my face!" However, that comment got Suzame to splash a lot of hot water at them along with Inuyasha, Megumi, and NekitaKariba, accidently.

Megumi yells out, surprised, "Hey!" Megumi then splashes hot water at Holly's way, hitting her in the face, causing her to yelp.

Holly yells out, annoyed, "Megumi!"

Megumi says, seriously, "Well, you splashed me! Fair is fair!"

Inuyasha says, with a sly smile, "That's right, Holly! Fair is fair!" Inuyasha then splashes his youngest sister in the face.

Holly says, annoyed, "Onii-chan! I'll get you!" Holly then hits Inuyasha with hot water hard, causing him to yelp. Suzame laughs at this and she says, "Inu-chan, you look funny!" Suzame resumes laughing which results her getting splashed in the face by Zera.

Zera says, with a sly smile, "Now, you look funny!" That comment got Melody and Holly laughing which results them getting their heads dunked under the water, but they escape Suzame's grasp and start splashing her with the spa water, getting the others in the process. Soon enough, all them in the hot springs were screaming and laughing as they splashed each other with the spa water and having a bit of a good time.

(Later that night; in Holly's dream)

We find ourselves, in a dark endless void where we find the young Holly looking around with a fearful expression on her face.

Holly says, worriedly, "Where am I? Mama! Ane-ue! Ani-ue! Suzame-onee-chan! Korvo-onii-chan! Inuyasha! Megumi! Melody!" Holly yells out, worriedly, "Melody, if this is one of your jokes than it's not funny!"

Just then, an evil male voice calls out, "No one's here, my dear!" Holly whips her head to see a faint shadowy image of Moo, in his final form, glaring at her hungrily.

Holly screams out, horrified, "Mama! Ane-ue! Someone please help me! There's a big scary monster here!"

The 'Moo shadow' says, with an evil sly smile, "There's no one here, little Holly! You will be mine!" The 'Moo shadow' lunges his right claw at Holly, who gets into a ball, bracing herself for his claws.

Just then, a familiar female voice calls out, "Holly, wake up!" Holly then fells arms wrapped around her and she looks up to see her mother looking down at her with a concern look and Holly says, perplexed, "Mama!" Holly then looks around to see her brothers and sisters as well as the other half-demon children in a room in Zera's palace.

Izayoi tells Holly, "I came from the village to check up on you and your siblings, sweetie!"

Zera says, plainly, "She must have had a terrible dream!" Just then, Holly places her face onto her mother's chest and cries, heavily, at the nightmare that she had. Holly cries out, fearfully, "Mama, I had a nasty dream! The monster in my dream was going to eat me!" As Izayoi comforts her youngest daughter, no one knows that Holly's dream will be a foreshadowing of things that has yet to come…
