Sango and Gypsy burst into the house, searching frantically for the missing Shiori. She wasn't inside.

"Ya think he took her with him?" Sango turned from where she was looking behind the couch, she was visibly pregnant with Miroku's child by now.

"Not driving like that! At least I'd hope not." Gypsy made one final check of the studio, because Shirori often fell asleep in there while Inuyasha played guitar for her. Her eyes caught something on the floor, something shiny. "Fuck!"

"You find her?" Sango trudged up the steps and peeked into the room. Gypsy was staring vacantly at the floor. Sango followed her gaze to the needle. "Oh Gods, no--"

"He's using! I was right! I knew it, damn it and I didn't wanna see it! Come on, we gotta stop him." Gypsy turned to the door, avoiding eye contact with her friend.

"What about the kids?" Sango inquired, reminding the distressed woman that Inuyasha could possibly have all the children with him.

"Where the hell did he take them at ten at night?" Gypsy ran her fingers through her long golden hair, long enough now to make Sesshomaru admire it. "Fuck it, come on."

Sango and Gypsy roared out of the driveway in the general direction of the city. Inuyasha found Kouga's Harley parked beside Miroku's car at a strip club called The Body Shop. With no hesitation he walked past the bouncer who knew him all to well, and asked no questions.

When his eyes adjusted to the flashing lights and ear bursting music, he found Miroku and Kouga, as he'd expected, getting lap dance's from two blonde dancers. His eyes narrowed, the beast in him daring to come out and wreck havoc on those around him. He suppressed it and moved over to Kouga.

"The fuck's my wife?!" He yelled, scaring the dancer off Kouga with an ungraceful haste. Kouga saw a killing rage in Inuyasha's eyes.

"I have no idea, Inuyasha. Why would you think I'd know?" Kouga snapped, standing up slowly as his hard-on diminished.

Miroku moved away from the situation, knowing better than trying to stop either of them- and besides he was busy watching the girl on the pole in front of him. Kouga snapped his head to the side, arms folded, "I know nothing."

"You cocksucker, you've been after her since the day we met her over at the Silver Rose. You're sore cause I got her first!" Inuyasha ranted.

Kouga watched his friend with concern. Inuyasha seemed to be coming apart lately, not that he'd ever been wrapped too tightly to start with. "Inuyasha, I came here to see a lap dance or two-- or five… but the point being I do not know or care where your mate is and while we're on the subject-- whose watching my son if your mate isn't at home and you're here?"

"Fuck! I knew I forgot something!" Inuyasha snapped his fingers, pausing for a moment Inuyasha thought, and then- "Ya know I have no idea where the fuck they are."

Kouga grunted. "I'm gonna kick your ass, hanyou! How fucking high are you that you forgot your own kids?"

"Take it outside boys," one of the bouncers said, approaching when he saw Kouga jump up.

Meanwhile, Sesshomaru was finally getting to relax with a whiskey on the rocks and late night TV. Kagura curled on his left up under his arm, the kids in their rooms doing whatever they did at ten something at night, yes this was indeed heaven. And just as he drew in a relaxed breath, Rin appeared in the living room.

"Daddy?"

He looked over at her, a slight smile on his lips. "Yes honey?"

"Daddy, Jace and Chiko are in the kitchen." She scuffed her toe into the floor, "Shiori is with them. Can they stay and play till Uncle Inu and Aunt Gypsy come back?"

"Where are they?" Sesshomaru stood up, nudging Kagura to move.

"Dunno."

Sesshomaru gave a frustrated growl and stalked into the kitchen where he found his nephew rummaging the fridge, his niece sitting on the floor pouting cause her cupcake was turned upside down on the floor in front of her. Kouga's son, Chiko, was devouring a whole ham with tiny wolf like snarls. "What is this?"

"Hi ya, Uncle Sessy." Jace didn't look up, just kept pulling out the cheese and sweets to eat.

"Don't call me that. Cease eating my food and tell me why you are roaming the grounds at this hour." Sesshomaru demanded.

"Daddy went to the club so I'm staying with them," Chiko said between bites.
"And then momma went to see Sango and daddy fell asleep so we went out to play and when we got back he was gone and the door was locked." Jace explained, sucking peanut butter off his fingers.

"Where exactly did he go?" Sesshomaru allowed a furrow to appear between his graceful brows.

"Dunno." Jace replied.

Kagura stood in the doorway staring at her husband. "I think I know-- I saw Inuyasha tearing outta here a little while ago, heading for town."

"Its Friday night, he must have headed for the bars as well. Where the hell did Gypsy go?" Sesshomaru waited for no answer, he made his way to the SUV sitting in the drivers seat and he too headed for town.

Inuyasha and Kouga were screaming at each other in the parking lot of the bar. People had hastily gotten inside away from what promised to be an explosion between the hanyou and the ookami, both so drunk they could barely stand.

Gypsy and Sango arrived at the scene moments later. The female wolf hanyou was more pissed than Inuyasha had ever seen her, her eyes glowed with the beast inside dying to rip into him.

"You stupid baka!" She shoved Inuyasha in the chest. "You're fucking using needles? How damn long has this gone on?"

"Gypsy I can explain--" he stuttered.

"Heroin!! You're fucked up on heroin and supposed to be watching MY kid? You are a baka! You're an arrogant cocksucking idiot!" Kouga spat.

"Oh, real original! You wanna go now, wolf boy?" Inuyasha threw up his arms, indicating he wanted a fight.

"As a matter of fact I do!" Kouga leapt at Inuyasha, Sango dragged Gypsy, who was about to change into her demonic form, back.

Sesshomaru's instinct had been right. He recalled hearing Inuyasha talking about the Body Shop strip club last week, and how it was supposedly one of the finer clubs in town, even though he did not frequent such places. The fight was turning bloody, Inuyasha was across the hood of the car, Kouga's hands around his neck.

Gypsy saw Sesshomaru step from his SUV and move towards them at a slow pace, sizing up the situation and then things went very slowly. She saw Inuyasha's hand slip down to remove the switchblade, she heard the audible click of the blade coming out, then she saw it hurling at Kouga who had been kicked a few feet back. Kouga easily ducked the blade, however.

A sickening thud.

A gasp for air.

Sesshomaru collapsed to the ground, blood staining the corners of his mouth and dripping to his chin. His fingers moved to remove the blade quickly, but he fell over again.

Inuyasha's prized switchblade was buried to the hilt in his brothers' heart. He was seeing it, but he wasn't believing it. Even he wasn't this-- this-- evil and disgusting.

Was he?

A sob burst from the hanyou, he crossed the seven foot space between them with one bound, his hands burying into his brothers hair, tears falling on his lifeless face.

"Oh Kami! What have I done? Please forgive me! Gods, forgive me! Sesshomaru!!!" His voice sounded more like a howl of pain and despair. He shook in sobs over the form of his older brother. They had never gotten along really, they were too opposite for that, but he had always loved him deep inside. Now, his own bother's blood was upon his hands, because he couldn't hold his temper.

Inuyasha's sobs broke Gypsy from her trance. The only thought on her mind was InuTashio. He would know what to do. "Inuyasha! Call your father! HE has Tenseiga!"
The realization of that set in hard, and Inuyasha grabbed his tiny cell phone, calling his father. His voice cracked and a fresh wave of tears went down his face when his father's gruff voice answered the phone. "Daddy!"

"Inuyasha? What's wrong?" The older demon sensed the urgency.

"Please. Come to the Body Shop strip club! I've killed Sesshomaru!" Inuyasha screamed desperately, then threw the phone, returning to shaking his brother-- or at least trying to shake him awake.
