------------------------------------------------------------------ -------------------------------------------

The Inu family had been relaxing and playing in the field for most of the day when Sesshomaru’s caught the drift of a familiar scent. Knowing this information Sesshomaru quickly told Inuyasha to get the pups inside.

.:Inside the cave:. Sesshomaru barked warning most of his family.

“What’s going on Sesshomaru?” Inuyasha asked his mate worried about Sesshomaru’s warning.

“Just get inside!” Sesshomaru yelled getting into a battle stance.

.:Inside:. Inuyasha also barked to the pups, “Get inside.” Inuyasha also said so Rin and Shippo could understand.

Everyone was almost safely inside except Aiko. Inuyasha looked desperately around the cave and seeing she was not there Inuyasha shouted out to Sesshomaru in warning.

“Sesshomaru! Aiko is not here!”

“What!?!” Sesshomaru yelled angrily although he already heard what Inuyasha had said and that is what disturbed him.

Sesshomaru paused for a second and tried to sense Aiko or catch her scent. After trying and failing a number of times Sesshomaru let out a loud yell in anger over loosing his youngest child.

.:Aiko:. Sesshomaru could hear Inuyasha bark loudly over again and again trying to find his pup.

.:Mother:. A distress bark could be heard from the centre of the field but no one present could see anything there.
“The cry of a dog. How pitiful.” A female said from the same spot Aiko was heard a few minutes ago.

“Show yourself!” Yelled Sesshomaru not fooling around.

“Hahaha! I never knew the cold demon Lord could have feelings, especially for a stupid female Hanyou whelp.” An equally feminine voice said but not owned by the first speaker.

“What. Do. You. Want.” Sesshomaru said boiling with rage but not showing it. That is what scared most people.

“What would you do to save your daughters life Sesshomaru?” A male voice asked.

“Anything.” Sesshomaru answered quietly knowing the trio heard him perfectly well sensing the male a demon.

The three came into view by removing the invisibility charm set up by the Priestess. Standing in front of them stood three angry looking people and one of the female’s held a struggling Aiko.

“How dare you do this!” Inuyasha yelled in anguish only wanting his pup back safely in his arms.

“How could we Inuyasha? It was sim-” Sango’s sentence was cut of by a strict blow to the head knocking her unconscious to the ground. Standing behind her stood Miroku with his staff in a position to attack.

“Ahhh.” Kagome yelled after getting hit by a heavy blow in the middle of her spine, almost braking it, when Miroku had turned from hitting Sango. Before Aiko hit the ground Kouga sprang into action and grabbed his young captive.

“Kouga.” Inuyasha said angrily from his stance protecting his other pups glaring death at the Ookami.

Aiko sensing more danger from this male than the other two female’s Aiko started struggling for all she was worth, which wasn’t much considering she was only two and a half months old, but it was enough to make Kouga let his grip go facing his seething enemy. Sesshomaru.

Aiko, after falling safely to the ground, made a dash for her Mother, brothers and sisters.

“Come on Aiko, come on.” Inuyasha urged.

.:Come pup:.
Kagome having awoken a few seconds prior saw Aiko moving towards her family and freedom, Kagome made a painful jump for the small child and caught her in a firm grip.

“Let go of her Kagome.” Inuyasha said threateningly.

“Or what Inuyasha? You’ll kill me. How can you kill someone you swore to protect?” Kagome said mockingly holding Aiko in front of her letting Inuyasha see his daughters distressed tears running down her face.

“The promise l made to you was broken the moment you heart Shippo and threatened my family by capturing Aiko.” Inuyasha said matter of factly and with no remorse for what he said.

While Inuyasha and Kagome where ‘talking’ they didn’t notice Sesshomaru and Kouga glaring the other down waiting for the optune moment to attack the other Lord.

Kouga took one glance at Kagome and Sesshomaru saw that as his opportunity to attack.

Moving quickly and silently Sesshomaru ran to Kouga and attacked his sword giving Kouga a deep gash in his arm earning him a loud grunt from the wolf.

Inuyasha and Kagome heard Kouga’s grunt of pain and all people’s attention to the fighting pair.

Sesshomaru had quickly turned around and was aiming his sword for Kouga’s back but wasn’t quick enough. Kouga quickly jumped out of the way knowing what Sesshomaru was about to do and seeing an opening he kicked Sesshomaru in the face with his foot sending Sesshomaru back a few feet.

“Sesshomaru!” Inuyasha yelled to his mate seeing if Sesshomaru was hurt.

“I’m okay Inuyasha.” Sesshomaru answered quickly keeping his head in the fight.

Not acting quick enough Sesshomaru again was kicked by Kouga and sent flying into a near by tree with Kouga in his face and his hand at his throat.

“You loose Sesshomaru.” Kouga said getting his claws posed to push them threw Sesshomaru’s skull.

“Not this time asshole.” Inuyasha screamed jumping onto Kouga’s back with his arms around his throat choking the man.

Seeing his weight of the man on his back was to heavy and his loss of air Kouga fell back words with Inuyasha beneath him.

“Ahh.” Inuyasha grunted falling on his back with the weight of the almost unconscious Kouga squishing him into the dirt.

.:Mother:. The pups barked together seeing there mother’s predicament and fearing for his safety.

.:I’m okay:. Inuyasha barked back to reassure his pups he was un-injured.

Feeling the weight being lifted of his chest Inuyasha saw Sesshomaru picking up the limp, but still breathing, body of Kouga and throw him to the other end the field leaving him with many serious injuries.

When Inuyasha was free from the restraints of Kouga’s body Inuyasha quickly jumped up and ran into Sesshomaru’s opened arms kissing him lovingly.

“Why did you do that?” Sesshomaru asked Inuyasha looking into the younger man’s golden eye’s.

“I couldn’t stand by and let Kouga kill you. The pups need a father.” Inuyasha answered his mate.

“What about Aiko?” Sesshomaru asked tense preparing for another fight if the case arrises.

“L knocked out Kagome and Rin caught Aiko before she fell. She is safe with all the other pups in the cave where no one can get them, and they can‘t get out.” Inuyasha said suggestively.

“Know what can we do in the time we have alone to ourselves?” Sesshomaru asked himself secretly knowing what Inuyasha was getting at.

“I wonder.” Inuyasha said before smashing his lips against his mate’s in a hungry his.

Sesshomaru and Inuyasha didn’t return back to the cave until late the next day looking very happy and sedated.
