If you remember I lost my whole family two years ago and it was three years ago I came into your services, to care for young Lord InuYasha, m'lady", the girl answers, "You asked me that question, because you miss Lord InuTaisho, am I right?""Yes, it is. There is so much I can't and won't forget about him and its too painful", her tears start flowing again."Its alright, Lady Izayoi, cry to your heart's content", Sakura says, leting Izayoi sob on her shoulder.************************************************When you cried, I'd wipe away all of your tearsWhen you'd scream, I'd fight away all of your fearsAnd I've held your hand through all of these yearsBut you still have all of me************************************************One Year Later...Four year old InuYasha sits in his mother's lap sobbing as Sakura cleans the wounds he recived from the villagers, just for quietly walking through the village."Mother, whats a hanyou?", he asks, looking up at his mother."Where did you hear that?", Izayoi says, completely shocked."The villagers called me that as they were beating me", he replies, "What is a hanyou?""I'll tell you when you're older, InuYasha", she says, wipeing away some of his tears, 'Will his life always be like this, I hope not', she thinks.************************************************You used to captive meBy your resonating lightBut now I'm bound by the life you left behindYour face it haunts, my once pleasent dreamsYour voice it chased away, all the sanity in me************************************************InuYasha sleeps, quietly breathing through his mouth as Izayoi kneels on the engawa, telling Sakura about the first time she met InuTaisho."I met InuYasha's father, when I was running away from home, because I didn't want to marry the Lord my parents had arranged for me and I was quite a headstrong young woman then. I was being chased by a pack of wolves through the forest, when I ran into InuTaisho, standing in the middle of a clearing and he killed the wolves with one sweep of his sword", she says, her eyes almost twinkling."Weren't you afraid?", Sakura asks, totally amazed."I was at first, but that was before he offered me his hand and gave me a kind smile, and spoke to me in a kind, gentle voice", Izayoi replies, her smile disappearing, "Its just now that hes gone, I'm left to raise my son without him and I can't get any sleep, because I keep seeing his face in my dreams and I feel like I'm losing my mind, everytime I hear his voice in my head", she starts crying again.************************************************These wounds won't seem to healThis pain is just too realThere's just too much that time cannot erase************************************************InuYasha is still asleep when Izayoi enters his room and lightly kisses him on the forehead, her tears falling on the banges of his slivery-white hair.************************************************When you cried, I'd wipe away all of your tearsWhen you'd scream, I'd fight away all of your fearsAnd I've held your hand through all of these yearsBut you still have all of me************************************************"InuYasha, my son, I love you and I'll never let anything hurt you. I'll protect you with my life", Izayoi whispers as she watchs him sleep.
InuYasha slightly stirs in his sleep and his ears slightly twitch as she whispers to him."You may be half-demon and half-human, but that only makes you special, don't let anyone tell you otherwise", she adds, wiping a strand of hair from his face, "I love you, InuYasha", her tears again fall on his slivery-white banges.************************************************I've tried so hard to tell myself that you're goneAnd though you're still with meI've been alone all along************************************************Four Years Later..."Give back the food you stole, you worthless hanyou brat!", a villager shouts, waving a spear over his head."No way!", eight year old InuYasha yeels over his shoulder, still running towards the forest, 'Because I need it to survive', he thinks."Ungretful little brat", another villager curses, throwing a spear at InuYasha."Ngh!", InuYasha utters, bitting his lip as the spear passes over his right shoulder, nicking it, 'Damn it!', he thinks as his blood soaks his haori(jacket) and the kimono under it and jumps onto a high tree branch and deeper into the forest.He doesn't stop until he reachs a stream, "Damn it, it still hurts", he curses as he opens his haori and kimono to examine his wounds, "They're deeper than I thought, and all for two small bags of rice and five apples", he whinces as he moves his arm to remove his haori and kimono, and places the bags of rice and the apples under his kimono, then he steps into the cold stream, bare-chested and wearing only his hakama(pants), he lays on his back in the water, "Mother, why did you have to die?", he whispers as the blood flows from his wounds, downstream.------------------------------------------------**Flashback** Three Years Ago..."Mother, why do we have to leave our home?", five year old InuYasha asks as Izayoi hurries him into the forest."Demons are attacking it and if they find us they'll kill us", Izayoi replies, trying to hide her fear.They keep running, until Izayoi is struck in the leg by an arrow and collaspes on top of InuYasha"Mother, are you alright?", he asks worriedly."I can't move my leg", she says, tears forming in her eyes."The hanyou and his mortal wrentch of a mother are over here!", a demon calls out, heading towards InuYasha and Izayoi."Hes coming closer, mother", InuYasha whimpers."InuYasha, I want you to run", she whispers."But mother, what about you?", he asks, fear appearing in his eyes and voice."My leg is too injuried to move it, and if I could walk I would only slow you down, so run!", she crys."No, I won't leave you mother!", InuYasha exclaims, tears pouring from his eyes."There you are wentch and the litte hanyou whelp", the demon says, standing over them, holding a sword."Mother", InuYasha wimpers, fearfully, as Izayoi holds him close and trys to shield him."Now you two die!", the demon exclaims, stabbing it's sword through Izayoi's body, which stabs InuYasha through the left shoulder."Ugh...", InuYasha utters, passing out."Inu..Ya...sha", Izayoi whispers as her eyes start to glaze over, 'My son, you'll survive your wounds from tonight, but I can't survive mine, so stay alive for me and I pray you will meet a girl who'll love you for what you are, not just who you are, goodbye InuYasha, I love you', she thinks as she slips into the blackness of enternal sleep.**Flashback Ends**------------------------------------------------'When I awoke the next morning, all I could smell was my mother's dead body and her blood covering my body. It was that scent that spared my life that night', InuYasha thinks as he stands up, water dripping from his hair and off the tips of his ears, 'I still remember every detail of when I had to bury you, mother', a tear rolls down his cheek, 'I had to dig your grave with my own small five-year old hands', he stares at his hands, "Mother, I know you're still watching over me, but I'm still alone", he crys to the sky.************************************************When you cried, I'd wipe away all of your tearsWhen you'd scream, I'd fight away all of your fearsAnd I've held your hand through all of these yearsBut you still have all of me************************************************Fifty-Seven Years Later...(A/N:But only seven years for InuYasha, because he was sealed to a tree for fifty years)"You saw Kikyo, didn't you? I can tell just by looking at you", Kagome says, glaring at InuYasha angerly.InuYasha just stares at her, with a dumbfound look on his face."You can't look me straight in the eye", she says, tears forming in her eyes, "Its the same everytime".'I made her cry again', he thinks, starting to sweat."I'm leaving, InuYasha!", she exclaims."Where are you going?", InuYasha asks."I'm going home", Kagome replies, walking towards the Bone-eaters well."No, wait Kagome!", InuYasha exclaims, gently grabing her hand."Huh!", she says, looking at InuYasha's hand, holding hers, "InuYasha?""Kagome, I want to tell you something", he says, his cheeks turning bright red."InuYasha, are you blushing?", Kagome asks, "Why?""Kagome, its true I have feelings for Kikyo, but I...I...", his blush deepens."You what?", she says, smiling softly."I love you, Kagome", he blurts out, "More than I love, Kikyo", he aviods eye contact with Kagome."InuYasha, I love you too", she starts to blush.'She loves me!', he thinks, looking her in the eyes, 'She returned my love'."The reason I didn't tell you earlier, was because I was afraid that you care about only the sacred jewel and Kikyo, and call me a fool for loving you", Kagome replies calmly, tears flowing down her cheeks."Don't be silly Kagome, I would never call you a fool for loving me", InuYasha explains, wiping away the tears rolling down her cheeks, "And the only reason I keep seeing Kikyo is because I feel guilty over her death, but you know I love you so please stop crying, for me"."Ok, I will", she replies, resting her head on his shoulder."Thank you Kagome, for loving me", he says as he puts his arm around her shoulders, 'Mother, thank you for giving birth to me, for loving me, and for protecting me, so if you're still watching over me, I'm glad you are', he thinks, two thin streams of tears fall from his eyes, 'I love you mother, and I miss you'.------------------------------------------------------------------ ------------DemonGirl-Setsuna: Well, what did you think?
