***Three Years Earlier***
  
  The sun is rising, Inuyasha opens the balcony door. But Kagome walks up to him, while holding their three-year old daughter who was sleeping in her arms.

Kagome: “Are you sure I can’t come with you?”

Inuyasha: “Yes.”

Kagome: “But why do you have to go alone?!”

Inuyasha: “I have to, and if anything were to happen to you and Yumi I don’t know what I’d do!”

Kagome (sadly): “I understand.”

Inuyasha: *he softly touches Kagome’s right cheek then smiles* “I’ll be back, trust me.”

Kagome: *she also smiles*

Inuyasha: *he looks down at a sleeping little Yumi* “Hey honey, daddy’s gotta go somewhere for a while, but I’ll be back soon.”

Yumi: *she snores*

Inuyasha: *he gently kisses Yumi on her head, then leaps out the balcony and runs out of Konoha*

Kagome (thinking): ‘Come back soon Inuyasha.’

***In the woods***

Inuyasha (thinking): ‘Kagome, I wish I could tell you about why I’m really leaving…but I can’t let you get involved in this!’ “So, Kagome…Yumi…until I return to Konoha…goodbye.”
  
  He ran deeper into the woods, far away from Konoha.

***Meanwhile, back in Konoha***

Kagome lay Yumi down in her little bed. Yumi sucks her thumb in her sleep, as her mother silently puts a picture frame of her, Yumi and Inuyasha in it.

Kagome (to herself): “That way you will always remember daddy.”

Yumi: *she sucks on her thumb in her sleep*

Kagome: *she silently tip-toed out of the room* “Have a good sleep, little Yumi.”
*she gently closes the door*
