Her voice was weak, her breath coming in small pants, but still she
sang. Her voice carried around the small room and though her hands
could not touch what the words could, her heart was always with the
small child resting in her womb that she now sang to.

"Rock-a-bye baby in the tree tops...
When the wind blows the cradle will rock,
When the bow breaks, the cradle will fall..."

Her head flopped back on the bed, eyes fluttering shut and hands weakly
pulling at her restraints as tears slid down her cheeks.

"And down will come baby....
Cradle and all....."

He pulled the red ball cap down tightly over his head, making certain
that it held tight to the oddly colored hair tucked inside. The
sneakers he wore made a soft squeaking sound as he walked down the long
corridor, eyes ever vigilant for dangers.

Inu yasha had returned that morning - almost three days late from what
he had gathered from Sango and Miroku - to find his mate's family
huddled around the dining room table. Unfortunately, none of the news
they had was good....

%&%&%Flash back&%&%&%

She had simply thought her daughter was having a miscarriage. If she
could get her to the hospital, there might have been time. She'd
called an ambulance, held her daughter tightly as she prayed to what
ever kami would listen that her little girl would be all right. She'd
damn near sighed in relief when the paramedics had arrived and took her
daughter away. She thought everything would be ok then...

However, that had been the start of even greater problems.

She wasn't having a miscarriage. The ultrasound was clear and her
water had yet to break. So what was the problem?

The doctors immediately ordered blood work done.

In every other trip the hospital, both Mrs. Higurashi and Kagome
had expressly forbid any blood work done. For 'religious purposes',
Kagome was not to give blood, even for testing. Both mother and
daughter feared what would happen if they noticed any demon elements to
Kagome's blood and so she had hidden behind there family shrine to keep
blood work from being done but in this instance the doctors had to put
the well being of the child before Kagome's beliefs.

With a court order and few security guards on stand by, they took
Kagome's blood and sent it off the lab....

Once the lab results had come back the doctors became suddenly
secretive, carting Kagome off to a private room on the top floor of the
hospital and denying the family any communication with her. They had
claimed that she was having more test done but it didn't take long for
her mother to figure out the truth.

While trying to get a nurse's attention, she had heard two of Kagome's
doctors talking just up the hall. As quietly as she could, she snuck
up behind them, finding cover behind a large fake bush as she listened.

"--There's no way the girl is human." one doctor had exclaimed, papers
russling as he spoke. "Just look at these samples of blood we took
from her!"

"I agree," the second said. "I mean, she's at least part human as is
the baby but there's something mixed in with her blood that's just..
astonishing! We really can't let a medical marvel like this get lose!
We need--"

That had been all Mrs. Higurashi had needed. She had immediately
grabbed Souta and jii-chan and hurried home to wait.

%&%&%&End Flash Back%&%&%&%&%

It had taken every ounce of self control the hanyou had possessed not to
leap up from the table as soon as Mrs. Higurashi had finished her
story. He *would* have stormed out after his mate if her mother had
not stopped him at the door.

'I have a plan' she'd said, a wary smile on her face. 'I have a plan
but it will only work if you stay calm. And so he had waited, his
patience and instincts pushed to their limits as Mrs. Higurashi explain
the plan. It would take a day of planning and a lot of luck but it was
the only chance they would get to Kagome back.

Her mother's words rang in his ears as he continued down the moon lit
hallway...

'Run. As fast and as hard as you can, take Kagome and run.'

And that was what he planned to do.

Careful to avoid any hallways with a strong human scent, Inu yasha and
Souta made their way to the top floor of the hospital where Kagome was
being kept. They stayed away from elevators with cameras and took the
stairs which, according to the hall of records, did not yet have the
cameras installed in order to hide their faces. They traveled
silently, both knowing what had to be done now. There was no need for
words.

As soon as nurse's station for Kagome's wing came into view the older
boy glanced to the younger who did not look to him but merely nodded
discreetly. The young boy moved towards the nurse now sitting behind
the desk while the older boy moved off to the shadows on the far side
of the waiting room.

His constricted ears twitched uncomfortable under his hat, listening
intently as, at first, Souta talked calmly with the nurse. Inu yasha
heard him ask politely to see his older sister and then the nurse's
gentle apology and something about 'doctor's orders'. It was then that
Souta began to get louder and Inu yasha paid closer attention, waiting
for his signal.

It took only a few more minutes before the boy was kicking and
screaming, a full blow temper tantrum right there in front of the
nurse's station. He saw two tall men dressed in white appear seemingly
out of no where and flank the boy, grabbing his arms and legs to pull
him off the floor. The nurse look horrified and quite embarrassed as
her fellow nurses stopped to take in the scene. He wanted to help but
he knew it wasn't time...

He'd wait for his queue.

"I want my sister back NOW!" Souta screamed suddenly and Inu yasha
moved.

Passed the gawking nurses and though the shadows, Inu yasha moved down
the hall, silently wishing Souta luck as he kept the guards and nurses
busy. He moved down the hall, his nose leading him since no one really
knew exactly which room Kagome was in. It didn't take him long to
locate the scent - luckily she had come through that hallway rather
recently - and wasted no time following it to a large wooden door.

There was no window to look inside the room but Inu yasha was positive
that Kagome was in there. Her scent was so strong he could almost
taste it.

He turned the knob slowly and was surprised to find that the door was
not locked. That was one bit of luck in there favor so far, he
thought, hopefully there would be much more.

Oh kami how wrong he was...

He wasted no time in throwing open he door but stopped dead in the
door way as his eyes took in the pale and nearly starved figure on the
bed.

Kagome's head lulled to one side as her dim brown eyes turned to look
at who ever had just entered her room. Her face was pale and her
cheeks slightly hollow with the lack of nutrition and the draining
tests she'd been submitted to over the last week and a half. Tubes
stuck out of her arms in every direction like strange fingers gripping
her from the inside. He could tell she wasn't totally coherent by the
vacant look in her brown eyes but he noticed a slight spark when she
noticed him in the door way.

"Inu yasha," she slurred, a small smile on her lips. "You came."

Her weak voice seemed to snapped the hanyou out of his trance and he
nodded to his mate's inquiry. "Keh," he swallowed the lump in his
throat, trying to sound like his normal cocky self as he moved towards
the bed. "As if some dumbass human's could keep me away."

She giggling. "My big strong hanyou. We missed you."

He removed the tubes from her arms carefully and began to cut the
restraints at her wrist, pausing briefly to give her a questioning look.

"We?"

"The baby and I," she let her now freed left hand fall onto her belly.

"We've had a lot of time to talk, he and I."

Inu yasha smiled sadly as he cut the finally bonds from around her
ankles and lifted her, bridle-style, into his arms. "He?"

She nodded weakly, her head falling against Inu yasha's strong chest as
he carried her towards the window. "Yeah. Doctors told me the second
day... We're having a boy and he has your ears..."

Inu yasha cursed lightly under his breath as he tried to open the
window only to find it had been sealed shut. Glancing back toward the
door, his brain searched for an alternate route of escape.

"Inu yasha?" Kagome asked, slightly panicked by his sudden silence.

"It's nothing," he soothed softly though he didn't look down at his
mate. "He's gonna have my ears huh? Sure that's such a good thing?"
he lightly teased.

Kagome only smiled and closed her eyes. "Hai. He'll be so cute.." she
yawned. "He'll have silver hair and golden eyes... just like his
daddy..." Her soft snores told Inu yasha she had fallen asleep and he
silently thanked Kami. She need to rest and he needed to think.

Thinking back over the 'construction plans' Mrs. Higurashi had made him
memorize the day before, Inu yasha quickly made up his mind that the
only way he was going to be able to get Kagome out of there was if he
strolled back though reception and made a mad dash for the roof. It
was going to be extremely risky but there wasn't much else they could
do.

With a deep breath and a silent prayer, Inu yasha walked over to the
door, throwing it open and took off running like the hounds of hell
were at his heels.

#&#&#&#&#&#&#&#&#&#&#&#& #&#

Well, Inu yasha snorted to himself, that luck sure was short lived.
He had managed to make it passed the nurse's station without being
stopped, thought that wasn't to say the guards hadn't seen him. He
smirked.

They just couldn't manage to catch him.

He'd made it to the roof and leapt off into the hussle and bussle of
Tokyo, hoping he would not only lose any pursuers but also make it to
the shrine and down the well before any of them could figure out where
he was headed.

This however, had been were luck had made a detour...

Inu yasha, with Kagome still held tightly to his chest to keep her
warm, was now sitting in the Go-shin-boku trying desperately to think
of a way past the armed guards that now littered the Higurashi shrine's
grounds. If it had been just him he would have made a break for the
well house hours ago but with Kagome and the baby.. He just couldn't
risk it.

So, in the tree he sat, waiting and staring out over the shrine grounds
as if they could give him the answers to all of his problems. Just
then, a voice below them caught his attention.

"Oh great protector," He recognized Mrs. Higurashi's voice as it spoke.
"Please watch over my daughter. Her *friends*," he noticed the slight
pause here, "especially Ayumi from down the block, will miss her so if
anything were to happen to her."

Inu yasha blinked then smiled. Mrs. Higurashi wasn't just any human, he
shook his head. She was one of a kind!

"Please, go now and be with my daughter, our great protector." The
elder woman clapped three times and bowed to the ancient tree before
taking her leave.

Inu yasha smirked and pulled his haori tighter around Kagome before
taking off to find Ayumi's scent.

'Kami be with you Mrs. Higurashi. Once again you've save my ass.'
