[ He sat in thought for a moment, then his face turned pale, suddenly followed by a dark shade of red, "Are you ok inuyasha?" asked kagome, "I just remembered everything that happened over the last two and a half months" he choked, "Yup, we have a LOT of annoying you to do" shippo laughed, kagome and the others all joined in laughing, "Damn it, this is gonna ba a loooong week" he thought as he lay back down and shut hs eyes hoping it would all go away.]

"When I grow up, I wanna be a pwitty butterfly and dance with the flower fairys" shippo chanted as he skipped and danced round the god tree, inuyasha was up in his faverout branch growling, he had been sitting there for three days strait, only coming down for food, since he had relised what had happend he hadnt said a word to anyone, he wouldnt even look anyone in the eyes, a perminent blush seemed inprinted on his cheeks, he haddnt even come down to bop shippo for his taunting.
"Shippo, come on, give him a break, he will never come down if you keep this up" Kagome sighed as she watched the kit prance around the tree in a desperate try to futher humiliate the hanyou. "ok kagome, can we have lunch now?" shippo asked happly, "Sure, you go back to keades and I will meet you there in a few minutes"
kagome replyed with a sweet smile, with that the kitsune skipped off. "Inuyasha, I know you're upset, but please talk to me" Kagome pleaded as soon as shippo was gone, He didnt reply, he mearly growled. "Will you at least come down here?" she asked in a soft yet demanding tone, he grunted but didnt budge, "Well inuyasha,
sorry but dont say I didnt warn you... SIT" she bellowed as the frustrated dog boy slammed from about fifty meters up into the rocky ground. "Bitch" he growled as he pulled himself up and got ready to jump back into the trees, but before his feet left the ground, he felt a small hand tug on his sleeve, he turned around,
eyes fixed on the floor hoping she wouldnt see his beet red face, "Please" kagome whispered, he could smell tears falling down her cheeks. "Dont cry kagome" inuyasha grumbled, he sheepishly lifted his head, still avoidiing her gaze, he looked around, then smelt the air, yup they were definatly alone, with that he picked kagome up bridle style and leaped into the highest hidden branch of his tree. He carefully lowered her onto the branch, she looked up at him and smiled,
then she flung her arms around him, "Inuyasha, I missed you" she beamed, he sat in shock from the hug for a moment, but then put his strong arms around her.

A few moments later she relesed him from the hug and set her chocolate gaze on his shining golden eyes, he turned away, still feeling ashamed, and he knew now was where the questions would begin. "Inuyasha?" Kagome whispered softly, he turned back to her, still not meeting her eyes, "Look I Was a Stupid wuss of a whelp in the past, Ok I admit it, so can we please leave it at that" He growled, but not a thretening growl, more of a pleading growl. "But inu..." she was interupted again, "I dont wanna talk about it, shippo and the others are gonna NEVER take me seriously again as it is" he growled a little more iritably this time, "But inuyasha I..." again she was blocked by more of the hanyous spech, "What ever you're gonna tease me about then just do it now and go the hell back to your own damn time you stupid Bitch" he almost snarled with some anger but more hurt, "INUYASHA!" Kagome yelled trying to finnish what she wanted to say,"What is it bitch" he sighed irritably "Im not gonna tease you ok, Im understand that you're feeling embarrest and ashamed right now and I am not here to play on that" kagome took both his hands in hers, "I just wanted to talk to you, its been months since I have been able to talk to you, adult you, I have really missed you, even if you havent missed me"
she had a sad almost wimpering tne of voice for the last bit. "Kagome, Of course I missed you" he mumbled, feeling a bit acward to be hand in hand facing each other like this. They sat in silence for a while, but the quiet was broken by a hyper young fox kitsune, "KAGOOOMMMMEEEE, WHERE ARE YOU?, IM HUNGRY" shippo yelled as he entered the clearing, "Well inuyasha, will you come down for now, pleeease" kagome pleaded, her eyes big and puppy like, Inuyasha sighed, "Fine wench, but only if you promice not to sit me for the whole rest of the day" A smirk appered on his face, kagome gave an agrivated sigh but nodded her head in agreement.

"KAGOOOMMEEE" Shippo shouted louder, just then a large red clad hanyou landed infront of him with kagome on his back. "Hey you convinced him to come down, what ya do? Give him a teddy bear?" Shippo burst into hysterics and started rolling round on the floor, 'BUMP BUMP BUMP BUMP BUMP BUMP BUMP BUMP BUMP BUMP BUMP BUMP BUMP BUMP' shippo receved fourteen large bumps on his noggin, "WAHHHH KAGOOOME" wailed shippo, "INUYASHA SI..." she was silenced by a large clawed hand clamped to her mouth, "Remember your promice" he evil grinned, "Ohh kami, what have I done" kagome sighed as she scooped up the KO fox and ran to follow her half breed boy to the village. Miroku and sango were sitting in keades hut and... well you know what they were doing, 'Rub rub' "HENTAI" 'SMACK', when all of a sudden inuyasha walked in and kagome followed suit carrying shippo. "Well my congratulations miss kagome, you managed to get him out of the tree without any tears" miroku laughed,
sango giggled into her hand while kagome signaled for him to stop or die, "So it wasnt to scary being up that high this time inuyasha, good for you to face your fears" The monk carryed on, kagome waved her hands in the air franticly telling him to stop, but he was laughing to hard to notice her or the large angry half demon approching him, "Well miss Kagome, I must say you are doing great at potty training, the floor is still dry and he's been standing here for ..." Miroku never got to finish his taunt because the next second he was lieing uncontius on the floor with a bump bigger than any of them had seen, even inuyasha himself looked a little shocked at the size. Sango looked at miroku, then stared at kagome waitingly, kagome notest this, "Sorry sango, I had to promice not to S-I-T him to get him to come out the tree" Kagome held out the poor knocked out kitsune for her friend to see, sango realised what her friend had done and a look of sheer terror appered on her face (wierd for her, kinda out of charactor) as she snuck out the room so as not to have any chance of being killed by the dog demon.

Inuyasha stared at miroku for a moment, an evil smile crept onto his face as he walked out of the room. "INUYASHA, WHERE ARE YOU GOING" kagome called angrly,
"Follow me wench, I want you to watch" he laughed, twas a dark evil laugh. Kagome lay shippo down next to miroku and followed the dog boy, deathly afraid of what was about to happen, as soon as she got through the door he signaled to get on his back, she did, not wanting to anger him, "Inuyasha, where are we going?" kagome was scared of his answer, "To get rid of that mangey wolf" he smirked as he dashed off carrying kagome. "NO inuyasha please, he helped us in battle and he's injured, please dont do this" Kagome pleaded, but he ignored her and kept running, after about ten minuted they arived at kogas cave. As they entered a familiar but annoying voice called out, "Well hello kagome my love, oh and hey whats up mut face" Koga laughed, "Koga you need to run" Kagome explained, a hint of nervousnes in her voice, "Why should I run, this is my home?" koga asked confused. Suddenly "WIND SCAR!", koga just about dodged the attack, "WHAT THE HELL YOU DUMBASS MUT" Koga shreeked as the last remaning few wolfs came to his aid (he now has one arm, remember), "KOGA RUN" kagome shouted urgently. "Cant you just do that sit spell on the 'dog breath'" koga cried as he leaped from an 'iron reaper soal stealer' attack, "STAY STILL YOU BAKA WOLF" inuyasha yelled as he tried to grab the fleeing wolf. "Or what mut, you gonna go crying to mummy" koga mocked as he pointed at kagome, "SHUT THE HELL UP WOLF" screemed a slightly mental inu hanyou. "INUYASHA STOP, KOGAS HURT, IF YOU DONT STOP NOW I'M GONNA SPEND THE WHOLE OF TOMORROW S-I-T ing YOU, THEN IM LEAVING" screemed the more than slightly mental kagome, koga now sat in the corner, looking almost afraid of the insane screeming pair, "umm well anyway, I think we're all just gonna go out for a while and leave you two alone" koga laughed nervously as his pack began to exit the cave as fast as possible, the anger in both the teens faces were scary.

"MOVE AND I WILL KILL YOU WOLF" inuyasha yelled at the wolf demon, "heh, you couldnt if you wanted to dog breath" koga said, (uh oh, wrong answer).
"meidio zangoshia" inuyasha called as a huge black hole appered from his sword and smashed the cave, it only just gave inuyasha, kagome and koga just enough time to get out before it compleatly collapsed. After they watched kogas home turn to dust, inuyasha looked towards kagome, all of a sudden all his anger and power greed disapered and his whole body tenced with fear, "inuyasha... sitsitsitsit SIIIIIIIIIIIIIT!" kagome screemed at the top of her lungs, it was so loud that back at keades hut about ten miles away miroku and shipo awoke from their comas. At this point kagome didnt care that she was breaking her promice, she was so fuming mad she could have ripped the head off the worlds stongest demon. A few moments later kagome sighed and turned to koga to appolagise for his cave, but when she saw him she found him, his pack and every wild animal, every demon and every human in the area all huddling behind a rock, "was I really that scary?" kagome thought as she walked over and stared into the hole, "OH HOLY KAMI" she gasped as she stared at the seemingly never ending hole going through sheer rock, "BIIIIIIITTTCCCHHH" came a loud whimpering echoed voice, "thank god he's alive" kagome sighed in relef.
Just then a giant hole broke away in the side of the cliff leading to inuyashas hole creating a giant cave, Koga looked over the side of the cliff at the cave,
"Thats twice as big as our old cave, thank you sister kagome" called one of the pack, "soo kagome, now thats over, want to be my woman" koga said while taking her hand, her eyes twitched and a familiar anger filled her, "uhh never mind" koga squeeked while retreting back to the rock.

"Koga, could you please find me some rope to get inuyasha out" kagome sighed whilst calming down a little, koga obayed, afraid of the consiquences of if he didnt.
"CLIMB UP THIS INUYASHA" she screemed into the looking bottemless hole, a few minutes later kagome caught site of him, a wave of guilt panged over her as she saw his condition, his clothes were covered in rips and tears, his face covered n scratches and bruses, three of his teeth were missing and he looked like he was about to pass out from pain and expload from rage at the same time. "Errm, I guess sorry wont cover it then" kagome gave a nervous chuckle. They had left without saying a word and had got back to keades in silence. "KAGOME your back" sango smiled, then she looked at inuyasha and wasn sure wether to laugh, screem ad run or just ask kagome to sit him because clearly she had already broken her promice, "Kagome" shippo smiled wearly as he stumbled into kagomes arms, still in pain from his head wounds, "shippo, im sorry inuyasha hurt you earlyer, but I got him back for it" she giggled as she pointed at the hanyou who was about to expload,
Shippo laughed weakly and fell to sleep in kagokmes arms, Kagome gently placed him down in the next room with coma miroku who had woken up only to be KO by sango for bottom grabbing (what else). "sooo... what happend here?" sango asked nervously to break the acward silence, "Well, umm you see urm..." kagome tryed to think where to begin, "woolllff" inuyasha snarled with a high amount of venim and hate in his voice, sango quickly figured out the whole story and gave kagome a quick nod.
"You promiced" inuyasha hissed giving kagome an evil evil evil glare (so evil that it was tripple evil :O el gasp).

"I dont care inuyasha, im sorry but destroying their cave was going over bord" kagome sighed as she lay down, it was only 5pm but she had gotten use to going to bed when inuyasha did as a child plus it had been a long day and she was tired. "You stupid F***** Bitch (I dont class that as a swear, bitch means female dog) I F***** am F***** P***** off with F***** you.
Kagome gawped at his language, I mean sure he swore alot, but never this much, or that word, "Inuyasha... SIIIIIIIIIIT" kagome screemed, the rage suddenly reterning to her.
Sango stared for a moment, then decided it would be better to go to bed, even if its in the same room as the perverted monk than be in this battle ground so she rushed away. Kagome, expecting inuyasha to get up and snap at her waited a few moment, then relised somthing was wrong, "Inuyasha?" she whispered as she knelt down beside him, no responce, "INUYASHA" she yelled in his ear, no responce, she flipped him over and saw that he had his eyes shut and was passed out, "well I guess it takes exactly thirty six s-i-ts to knock him out" she laughed, then she grabbed a blanket and snuggled up next to him for a good night sleep.

So much for everyones good night sleep, about an hour later a large shaddow cast into the hut, kagome who was still slightly awake opened one eye to see who was blocking the fire light, "ohh hey sesshomarou" she mumbled and closed her eyes, a moment later she snapped them both open and sat bolt upright, "SESSHOMAROU"
the girl shreeked waking everyone up, they all came rushing out in battle stance. "whaddya want sesshomarou?" inuyasha snarled, "calm down you delinquent half breed,
Im not going to kill you or your worthless friends today, my injurys are severe and so are yours by the state of you, I am mearly here to make sure you're not a whelp anymore so I may destroy you when we next meet" sessomarou said emotionless as normal, and with that he began to walk out, "Thank you sesshomarou"
kagome smiled, everyone turned to face the girl in confusion, "why are you thanking HIM?" inuyasha asked, growling the 'him'. "Whether he was trying to help or not he played a big role in defeating the erasier and saving you" kagome replyed with a grin, Inuyasha tryed to think of a come back, but couldnt think of one so he mearly "feh"ed making everyone (but sesshomarou who had left ond inuyasha who was angry) laugh, "its good to have you back inuyasha" kagome laughed and threw her hands around his neck,
"now why dont we all sit down and have some dinner" kagome smiled, before relising that she had just sent her bf for another trip to the ground to kiss lady foor,
"Sorry inuyasha" she laughed, "bitch" he growled.

Half an hour later the gang were all wide awake and enjoying warm bowls of raman infront of the fire. "Ya know, it felt almost as if sesshomarou was just coming to check if you were ok, like an act of careing" kagome mumbled a little scepticly, Everyone stared at her, "Your head's in the clouds wench" inuyasha answered and went back to inhaling his food. "So inuyasha?" shippo asked, "What runt?", "you can speek dog?" shippo giggled, inuyashas face turned red and he turned away,
"Feh, so what if I can, I am a DOG demon" he growled, "and whatever happend to your dream to become a 'perdy pink buderfwy'" the kit burst out in laughter and flapped his arms around like wings. "Shippo, dont be mean" Kagome scolded softly, "but kagome he's always mean to me" shippo pouted and sat on kagomes lap. Just then inuyasha turned back towards the kit and mumbled somthing, "What you say inuyasha?" shippo asked, inuyasha sighed and repeted a little louder, "" he mumbled as fast as he could then turned away again. "D d did he just appologise, and to ME" shippo gasped wide eyed,
everyone stared scepticly at inuyasha who sighed, "Look I still hate the runt but I guess in the big picture I was more stupid and helpless at his age than he is now so im sorry I called him stupid and helpless cause that would make me a hypocrite" he growled still not turning back. "Wow inuyasha, thats verry thoughtfull"
kagome smiled as she hugged him, he didnt say a word.

Later that night everyone turned in and the only ones left awake were kagome and inuyasha. "Hey inuyasha, how did you survive on your own like that all those years?"
kagome whispered, inuyasha looked her strait in the eyes, they were swirling with a mixture of pain and saddness but also relef and comfort, "I had to learn to protect my self fast or die, so I did" he whispered and shruged. They sat in silence for a while, kagome sitting in inuyashas lap, both holding hands and staring up at the stars, "Hey inuyasha?" kagome asked again, He looked down at her questionling look and nodded to show he was listening, "What happend to you, you were just so inicent, so sweet and happy, what happend that made you feel you had to be insecure and untrusting?" she whimpered, the words she spoke made her feel sad, her throte tied itself in knots and her eyes burned with the urge to cry.

He looked away out into the forrest and sighed, "It was a few days after my mother died, I waited by the grave I did my best to make, I waited there because I couldnt feel any reson to leave, why should I live if there was no one to live for. I was so hungry and cold, but I just couldnt bring myself to leave, After a while I was too weak to find any food or water or shelter anyway. I was asleep ontop of the muddy mound and I woke to the sound of voices, they were asking each other if I was alive and whether they should drown me to be sure. I opend my eyes and saw three men, they knew I was alive so they chased me away with knifes and pitch forkes, I ran deep into the forrest untill I lost them and hid. After a few hours it was morning, I was practicly starved and couldnt hunt yet so I wandered over to the village to ask for food, when mother was with me people would stare and say mean things but nothing more, this time everyone I past threw rocks at me and kicked me, One of the villagers pulled me up by my hair and cut one of my ears off with a knife, it grew back within a mear week but it was so painfull at the time that I kicked him and ran. I had no idea why they acted different with me that time, now I know about evryones hatered with us half breeds but back then I was to young to understand, humans and demons ever since then just wanted to kill me so I had to teach myself how to fight and hunt and smell out danger, since that day I had never trusted anyone, well up untill kikyo, but she betray me too,
so after that I even find it hard to trust you guys" he shrugged and stared back at the girl.

Kagome was in floods of tears, she opend her eyes when she felt a pair of large arms rap around her, she sniffed and hugged him back. "Im so sorry inuyasha"
she whispered, he didnt answer, she knew that for him remembering all this must be overwhelming so she just kept quiet and kept hugging him, soon she felt her sholder get wet, although he would deny it to his grave, he was crying, he couldnt stop the tears of pain from falling, the memorys of the dead face of his mother, of the angry hatefull faces of the villagers, the repeted demons that wanted him dead becase of who he was, it hurt, not because people and demons had physicly and emotionaly beat him everyday, but beacuse he had had to grow up to beleve he couldnt even come to trust his own friends, that he was'nt even worthy of having friends. Kagome felt her heart heave with the pain that he must be feeling, she brgan to rock him to and frow like she did when he was little, soon his sobbing reduced to mear sniffles, "You ok?" she asked him looking down at his head resting on her sholders, he nodded but didnt speek or look up. After a while of sitting in silence kagome drifted off to sleep, inuyasha relised this and gently lay her beside him, covering the girl with a blanket, he turned and began staring into the fire. He looked around to make sure everyone was asleep then put his hand into his kimono, he grabbed what he was looking for and gently pulled it out,
He held the small dog toy up to his face, "mother" he whispered with a smile and hopped into a tree, clutching the stuffed animal that he beleved to hold his mothers spirit to his chest he fell asleep.
