" Get off my mommy!" yelled Ayame, jumping onto Bankotsu's back and pulling his hair. While Bankotsu was distracted, Kagome kicked Bankotsu in the face. As Bankotsu was bleeding from nose, he noticed Kagome grabbing Ayame and heading for the door.

Just as Kagome got to the door, she felt Bankotsu pull her hair, which made her drop Ayame. " Mommy!" screamed Ayame. " Ayame! Run to grandma's and tell her to call daddy and the police!" yelled Kagome, trying to push Bankotsu away. " No! Mommy! No!" cried Ayame, watching Bankotsu hit her mother. " Go baby! Mommy loves you! Go!" yelled Kagome, punching Bankotsu.

When Bankotsu tried to stop Ayame, Kagome kicked him and made him fall.

" Come here!" said Bankotsu as he pulled Kagome to the floor.

When Kagome hit the floor, she felt Bankotsu straddle her.

" You even more sexy when you put up a fight...I should have fought you last time." said Bankotsu as he moved his hand up her shirt.

" Get off!" screamed Kagome, struggling.

" The more you scream, the more I get turned on!" laughed Ban kotsu as he unbuttoned Kagome's shirt.

" No! You bastard! Inuyasha! Stop!" screamed Kagome as she felt Bankotsu's hand go in between her legs.

" You even smell better this time...If I had of known better, I would have made you my mate, Kagome." smiled Bankotsu as he kissed Kagome.

" Please...Inuyasha..." said Kagome, tears streaming from her face.

" You'll much more fun with me than him!" said Bankotsu as he slapped Kagome again

Kagome struggled under Bankotsu's grip, but couldn't break it. All the memories of last came back to her and made her scream more.

Just as Bankotsu kissed her again, Kagome heard a bang against the door and heard the one voice that could save her.

" Get your filthy hands off her!" yelled Inuyasha as he sliced Bankotsu with his claws.

" Inuyasha!" shouted Kagome as she got off the floor. " Hello Inuyasha, nice to see you again...for the last time!" yelled Bankotsu as he punched Inuyasha.

" Inuyasha!" screamed Kagome as she watched her husband fight her rapist.

" Kagome! Go get Ayame! She's at your mother's!" shouted Inuyasha as he elbowed Bankotsu in the ribs.

" No! I won't leave you!" yelled Kagome.

" Yeah, Kagome, stay and watch your mutt of a husband die!" laughed Bankotsu as he punched Inuyasha in the stomach.

" Go! Kagome! Go!" yelled Inuyasha.

Kagome ran out of the house and to her mother's, which was only three houses down. When Kira saw her daughter, she ran to meet her. " Kagome are you alright?! You're bleeding!" shouted Kira. " I'm fine! Where's Ayame?!" asked Kagome. " Mommy! Mommy!" Kagome heard her daughter yell.

" Ayame, baby, are you okay?!" asked Kagome, holding her daughter.

" I'm fine, but my head hurts." cried Ayame.

" Where's Inuyasha?" asked Kira.

" He's in the house with Bankotsu!" said Kagome.

" Kira! Kagome!" yelled Shippo, running towards them.

" Kira told me what happened! Where's Inuyasha?!" asked Shippo frantic.

" Still in the house with Bankotsu!" said Kira.

" What?! I've gotta go help him!" shouted Shippo, running towards Kagome's house.

" Shippo! Wait!" yelled Kira and Kagome, running after him.

When the three got the house, the police were puliing up into the driveway.

" Please help my husband! He's in there with a dangerous man!" yelled Kagome at the officers while she soothed her crying daughter.

When the police got to the door, it opened. There stood Inuyasha with massive blood running down his arm. " He's hurt!" yelled Kagome, handing Ayame to Shippo. " Inuyasha!" shouted Kagome, running to the house.

When Kagome got to the door, Inuyasha fainted in her arms.

" Inuyasha! Baby! Can you hear me?!" shouted Kagome, trying to wake her husband. " Inuyasha! Please! Don't leave me!" cried Kagome.

When Kagome heard Inuyasha moan, she called for an ambulance.

As Inuyasha was being put into one of the ambulances, an officer approached Kagome.

" Yes?" asked Kagome.

" Well...Mrs. Takahashi...your husband's attacker was found dead in the living room...it looks like a very bad stab wound." said the officer.

" Bankotsu is dead?" asked Kagome.

" Yes, it looks like one of them had a knife or sword and during the struggle Bankotsu got stabbed in the heart and your husband got injured." said the policeman.

" Finally...my nightmare is over!" sighed Kagome.

" Kagome! The ambulance is about to leave!" said Shippo, climbing into the ambulance.

" Okay...mother...would you take care of Ayame while Shippo and I go to the hospital?" asked Kagome, climbing into the ambulance.

" No! I want to go with you mommy!" shouted Ayame.

" I know, sweetheart, we'll see each other soon at the hospital...I love you!" said Kagome blowing her daughter a kiss.

" Mommy! Come back!" yelled Ayame after the ambulance sped away.

" Grandma, will daddy be okay?" asked Ayame, tears in her eyes.

" I don't know...I hope so." said Kira, taking Ayame back to her house.

2 days later

" Daddy!" yelled Ayame as she ran into the hospital room and jumped on her father's bed. " Hey sweetie...how's my little princess?" asked Inuyasha, kissing his daughter. " I'm fine...how's your arm daddy?" asked Ayame, staring at Inuyasha's cast. " It's fine...the doctor says I'll have my cast off soon because it's healing really fast." smiled Inuyasha.

Inuyasha and Ayame looked up when Shippo and Kagome entered the room. " See Kagome, I told you my brother is as tough as nails." laughed Shippo as he came into the room. " I know...but that still didn't stop me from worrying." smiled Kagome. " Hey Shippo, Hey honey." smiled Inuyasha. " How are you feeling?" asked Kagome, kissing Inuyasha. " A lot better now that you're here." laughed Inuyasha.

" You really had us worried, bro...I thought that low-life might have killed you." said Shippo, sitting down. " Bankotsu couldn't get rid of me that easily." laughed Inuyasha, showing fang. " When I saw you come out that door and fall into my arms, my jumped to my throat!" said Kagome. " It's okay...I'm fine...I'm just glad we can finally live in peace, now that he's dead."smiled Inuyasha. " Me too." smiled Kagome.

" Daddy...I thought you were dead...you wouldn't leave us would you?" asked Ayame. " Of course not! I love all of you too much to leave you!" smiled Inuyasha. " And we love you too." said Kagome, kissing her wonderful husband.

" When can you come home?" asked Shippo. " The doctor said in about two days...to make sure of no further damage." said Inuyasha, sipping a glass of water. " Ugh...my whole life just revovles around hospitals...maybe I should become a nurse." said Kagome, rolling her eyes. " Well, being a nurse is what brought you and my brother together...if you think about it." laughed Shippo.

" He's right, you know...if you hadn't saved Shippo that day...I never would have known what true happiness feels like." said Inuyasha, starig into Kagome's beautiful eyes. " And I wouldn't have known what being in love truly feels like." smiled Kagome, staring at her husband.

" Daddy, when you get out of the hospital, can we go to the park?" asked Ayame.

" Of course, sweetheart." smiled Inuyasha, hugging his daughter,

" We'll all go...and have a family picnic." smiled Kagome as she looked at her wonderful family.

A week later

" Wow! Look at all the cherry blossoms! They're beautiful!" said Kagome. " Yeah...they are." smiled Shippo.

" I found a spot! Let's put the blanket over here!" yelled Ayame, jumping up and down. " Oh, baby, this spot is perfect...right under the biggest cherry blossom tree." smiled Inuyasha, putting down the picnic basket.

" Would you guys slow down!" yelled Sango, who had also joined them. " If mom can make it, so can you, Sango!" yelled Kagome, laughing. " Stop teasing, Kagome!...What a beautiful day for a picnic!" said Kira, unfolding the balnket.

" With a beautiful family." added Kagome.

" Mommy! Look! I picked you some flowers!" said Ayame, sitting next to her mother. " Oh, they're beautiful!" said Kagome, tickling her daughter. " All this talk is making me hungry!" laughed Shippo, grabbing a sandwich. " What doesn't make you hungry?" asked Sango, sitting next to Shippo. " Looking at your ugly face!" snuffed Shippo. " Idiot!" yelled Sango as she punched Shippo in the face.

" Serves you right..." said Inuyasha as he threw a piece of sandwich at Shippo.

"Hey! I spent all morning making this food...and not for the ants!" said Kira, glaring at Inuyasha. " Daddy got in trouble!" laughed Ayame. " Are you laughing at me?" asked Inuyasha to Ayame. " Yep!" answered his daughter. " Oh, really?" asked Inuyasha, tickling his daughter.

After eating, the family decided to take a walk around the park. " Ironic, isn't it...our nightmare started at a park...and it ends in one too." said Kagome, looking at the sky. " You know Inuyasha...I'm so glad I have my family." smiled Kagome. " Me too...especially Ayame...she's the best thing that's ever happened to us." agreed Inuyasha. " Yeah...and she's going to be a great big sister." said Kagome, looking at Inuyasha. " What?" asked Inuyasha, looking at Kagome. " That's right...I'm pregnant...I got checked while you were in the hospital...I'm only about 3 weeks...but pregnant." smiled Kagome.

" Oh Kagome! I love you! I love you! I love you!" yelled Inuyasha, hugging his wife and spinning around.

" I love you too!" said Kagome laughing.

" Oh Kagome...I don't deserve you." smiled Inuyasha.

" Oh yes you do...you just don't know it yet." laughed Kagome as she kissed her husband with more love than she had ever before.

After leaving the park, Kagome and Inuyasha told everyone the good news.

" Oh Kagome!" yelled Kira.

" Congradulations!" shouted Sango.

" I'm gonna be a big sister!" shouted Ayame as she danced around the house.

" Yes and you'll be the best big sister ever." said Shippo.

" Way to go, bro." said Shippo as he pat Inuyasha on the back.

" Thanks, I'm so excited! I hope it's a boy!" shouted Inuyasha.

" Why? So you can teach him how to do dangerous stunts when I'm not looking?" asked Kagome, laughing.

" But...they're fun." frowned Inuyasha.

" Daddy! You're silly!" laughed Ayame.

Nine months later, Inuyasha and Kagome had a little boy named Kyo. He looked just like Inuyasha and even inherited his father's ears. Kyo also developed all the powers his father had as well, which made Inuyasha very happy.

4 years later

" Mom! Daddy's teaching Kyo how to jump off trees again!" yelled Ayame from the back yard.

" Inuyasha! You get my son out of that tree right now!" yelled Kagome, walking outside. " But it's fun mommy!" frowned Kyo. " Get down now!" shouted Kagome.

" Listen to your mother, Kyo." said Inuyasha, pulling down his son.

When the children went inside, Kagome stomped towards her husband.

" I was only teaching him how to be a tracker." frowned Inuyasha.

" Ugh...you never change do you?" asked Kagome.

" Only if you want me too." laughed Inuyasha.

" Never." said Kagome as leaned up to kiss her demon prince.
