Chapter One
7 am
Kagome woke up in her comfy, very comfy bed. The sun was peaking through and she just couldn't sleep anymore. She contemplated whether it was worth it to get up or not. Reaching over and out of her warm sheets, she grabbed her phone and saw that the weather was very nice and warm that day. She forced herself out of bed. She reached into the fridge of her small kitchen for one and had her breakfast of oatmeal and an apple she ate on her way. She had a nagging feeling despite being very refreshed from her deep sleep. She wore running shoes and leggings so it's obvious what she's going to do. She was going for a walk. Hopefully her feeling subsides.
With Kurama
It was a peaceful quiet morning. The birds were chirping when a young man stepped onto a well kept balcony. Despite being surrounded in greenery, his bright red hair stood out in contrast to the many exotic plants. He had some kind of discomfort as if something will happen. His suspicions were never wrong so he contacted Koenma just to be safe. Koenma was a little unusual but how often did Kurama question Koenma without any proper reason to? Koenma was jumpy as usual whenever Kurama or Hiei addressed him. After all; he did fear the two S class demons.
He glances down to a small plant that brightened in color when he gently touched a leaf. The plant itself blossomed and looked even more alive than it did before and practically leaned into his touch. He hummed to himself. He just can't shake this feeling that's clinging to him. In one graceful move, he stands and walks out the door to his safe haven, the small wooded area in the park.
Soon he arrived at the park. The walk was less than 10 minutes. He can't help but wonder what's wrong with him. Why can't he be at ease? He was feeling very guarded despite looking like himself on a normal day. A child's cry echoed through his head, bringing him back to reality. The baby had been crying for a while but no one is making a move to quiet the baby. The unusual part, was that the cry was coming from the trees and not the playground ahead of him.
He sped past many trees on his way until he reached the middle of the woodland area where he saw a pink baby carriage, unattended. Weird. Who leaves a baby in the forest? Albeit, a small forest in a park but still. Who? Kurama quietly approached the crying baby.

He quickly spins around. Brown meets green. Her body was cautious, as if she could sense he's not human. Maybe it's because she's spiritually aware like Kuwabara. He lifted his face into a friendly smile that had girls swooning. But he noticed that she notably stiffened. Like he was a predator about to pounce. If he was Youko, he would have been flattered but this was his human side. He was curious and confused.
With Kagome
She slowly walked from her single room apartment to a neighborhood park. Thank goodness that there was such a large park in the heart of the city. Even from down the street, she heard a baby cry. Kagome had not been associated much with babies. But there was something about this cry that struck her in such a way she has never felt before. It had her running to the source. The feeling of urgency was something she hadn't felt in so long. She gracefully and nimbly avoided trees in her way until she reached the middle of the woodland area.
A red blob entered her line of view. It was long and she finally realized that it was hair. This confused her. She had seen many foreigners but she had never seen anyone with red hair as vibrant as his. A bright red flashed through her vision. This caused her to stop running. While staring at the stranger's unusual hair color, she noticed a pink carriage and remembered her reason for being there. The baby.
She stepped closer but she made a beginner's mistake. She stepped on a twig. So cliche that she would have rolled her eyes. But she didn't. She had been too distracted and watched as the redhead turned to face her. His bright green eyes met her ordinary brown. The baby is first priority. Why is he so far away from the park and with a baby. He isn't giving her a father feeling, which is putting her on edge.
He smiled. It was so practiced that it was fake. It was as if he pulled this smile so many times that he didn't try anymore. A normal girl would have been entranced but she was anything but ordinary. She did notice how good he looked. But she was put off by his smile. Did he think that she would not be suspicious of him just because he's good looking? She tensed. Could he be a kidnapper?
"Who are you? And what are you to the baby?" She questioned. More like demanded. Her voice became hard. She noticed his eyes widen for a moment. As if he did not expect her to ask questions. Seems like she was suspicious for a reason. She expected him to do one of two things. Panic for being caught in the act or try to play it off. Play off being the child's family member and try to get away. Could he be the cause of her unease? She would have never in 500 years guess what he was going to say. He calmly introduced himself.
"Hello, my name is Minamino Shuichi. Can we talk? We have something to discuss." He seemed sincere but that didn't mean she would trust him. She had seen many liars in her life. No matter how convincing he seems, she doesn't have reason to immediately trust a man she met in the middle of a forest.
Kagome approached him and the carriage. Inside she noticed a little child. An infant. She had not noticed when, but the baby stopped crying long ago. She had been too distracted by this 'Shuichi' guy. Don't worry child, I'll protect you. I promise. She whispered in her head. "What is it that we have to talk about?" Her voice was still hard but she was quiet, trying not to wake the child.
"I came a little before you. I found this child crying here and alone, so let's decide what we should do." She never expected that either. The only thing we can do is take her to the police. And that's what she loudly exclaimed. Almost forgetting how she tried to be quiet before. "Let's go to the station! What are you waiting for?" And she quickly held onto the carriage and tried to push away. But the carrier gotten stuck into the dirt and couldn't budge. She cursed under her breath and was about to bend down to push away some dirt but a certain someone beat her to it. The carrier was quickly dislodged and they were quickly on their way.
