I don't own Inuyasha

Chapter:2 Surprises

 

Kagome climbed out of the bone-eater's well in her own time, she was amazed how quick she made it out of the pit, this was one of the advantages she had because of being half-demon. But she was still concerned because of her dog-ears. /How would my family take the news. / She asked in her mind over and over, as she made her way to the door of the house, she stood in front of the door for a couple of minutes trying to decide what to do. In the end she entered the house through her window like Inuyasha did when he came to her time. Her room was as always; Buyo was laid out on the bed probably taking his afternoon nap, and greeted her with a friendly meow.

 

Kagome could only smile. She sat down on the bed next to the cat and started to think about the whole situation. /At least he has no problems with my ears. Now... how should I tell this to Mom, or Souta, but I'm really concerned because of Grandpa he usually flips out when he sees Inuyasha. What'll he do when he finds out that her granddaughter is now also a half-demon... / she continued to think until she fell asleep.

 

A couple of hours later Souta entered her room searching for some paper instead he found his sister who hasn't been home for a week by now, he went to the side of Kagome's bed and started to gently shake her shoulder to wake her up. Kagome opened her eyes and almost got a heart attack, she jumped on her feet and backed up against the wall, while hiding her ears with her hands. The little boy couldn't imagine why she acted so strange. “What's wrong sis?”

 

“Err... nothing I'm just... I mean... that...” her face became more and more desperate by the minute.

 

“Kagome just tell me what's wrong.” Souta gave her the biggest smile that he could and this dissolved Kagome's fear, she slowly took her hands from the two dog-ears her little brother was surprised with what he saw but he wasn't shocked this could have given her enough strength to face the rest of the family, UNLESS.

 

“DID YOU MARRY INUYASHA???” Souta's innocent question could not be overheard in the house. A few seconds later the door of Kagome's room flew open, revealing a paralyzed mother.

 

“WHAT DID YOU DO???” she yelled at her daughter, Kagome tried to open her mouth when her mother decided to continue. “Why didn't you tell me...”

 

“Mom I'm not...”

 

“I know you must be tired...”

 

“Mom!”

 

“I Hope you'll be happy with your new husband this was a bit quick...” This pissed the hanyou even more.

 

“Mom can I finish?”

 

“Yes dear, but we need to talk about some things first you should go sopping I don't think Inuyasha goes for the pajamas that you have...”

 

“MOM I'M NOT MARRIED!!!” Kagome's face was red from the anger and if she could kill with her eyes her mother would probably be only a pile of ash by now.

 

“Ohh... Sorry dear I just got carried away.”

 

Souta lowered his eyes, in shame “Sorry sis it was because of your ears, Inuyasha has ears like those I thought you married him.”

 

Kagome just couldn't stay mad at the two “It's ok you didn't mean any harm but I have something to tell you. Is Grandpa around?”

 

“No he's visiting an old friend of his, but I don't think he'll be home before dinner.” Her mother answered.

 

“The better for me I don't want him to chase me around with his wards.”

 

=A couple of minutes later======================================================

 

“...so that is how I became a hanyou.”

 

Mrs. Higurashi knew that this could mean serious trouble for her daughter. “It's really not hard for anyone to figure out that you are not a human anymore. I think you should avoid public until we find a way to hide your ...ahem... more demonic features.” she advised.

 

“Mom! I told you, I'm only a half demon!” This really annoyed Kagome, she was still a half human for goodness sake.

 

“I know but some people would still panic when they see you on the street...”

 

“Psst... I think I heard someone coming!” Kagome instructed her mother, she perked up her ears and heard footsteps coming from the stairs in front of the shrine, but couldn't tell who they belonged to.

 

“What is it sis, is someone hblll...” Mrs. Higurashi cowered Souta's mouth so the raven-haired hanyou can hear everything, Kagome moved towards the door, and tried to figure it out who was coming, then she heard a familiar whistling.

 

“Mom didn't you say that grandpa wont be back until dinner?”

 

“Yes why?”

 

“He's here! NOW what'll I do!?”

 

Luckily for Kagome her mother immediately know what to do. “Quickly here's some food, for you and your friends I'll try to slow him down, put some clean clothes into your backpack and go back to the warring states era! We'll meet in the wellhouse in the evening!” she threw the bag full of goodies to Kagome, and the girl left the room. She turned back in the door, and smiled at her mother. “Thanks.”

 

Her mother smiled back, “It's all right but move it, before you get caught.”

 

Kagome just left in time, her grandfather opened the door only seconds after she stormed op on the stairs to her room.

 

=That evening in the wellhouse==================================================

 

Mrs. Higurashi slid the door open, and entered the old dusty housing of the bone-eater's well; she looked around, but couldn't find her daughter. “Kagome?” she called out silently.

 

“I'm here mom.” A voice sounded from the inside of the well.

 

“Come on Kagome get up here we still need to find a way to tell everything to your grandfather.” A couple of sounds could be heard from inside of the well, seconds later two dog-ears raised over the edge of the well followed by their owner.

 

“We can forget that he'll flip out no matter how we do it. We need to find a way to keep this a secret.” Kagome responded while jumping over the edge of the bone-eater's the door suddenly opened up and she immediately jumped back into the pit.

 

“I have an idea for that!” the voice of Souta relaxed her.

 

“Ohh... it's only you!” Kagome said in relief while climbing back up.

 

“Kagome do you remember when I found you in your room?” the little boy continued.

 

“Yes and?” his sister asked curiously.

 

“I couldn't see your ears because of your hair, you could hide your ears in them!” Kagome folded her ears under her hair like Souta said, and indeed the most striking demonic feature was completely hidden away in her locks.

 

Mrs. Higurashi wasn't fascinated about the intent of her daughter to hold back such a thing from her grandfather “Ok now you can go to school without telling your friends that you are not a full human anymore, but you won't keep this as a secret from your grandfather!”

 

“But mom I thought you also wanted to keep this from him!”

 

“I wanted until he showed me his friend's newest work, he says it's a demon detector.” Kagome felt an urge to laugh when her mother said this, she knew that nothing really worked that his grandfather made, then her mother's words quickly changed her point of view. “When he showed it to me it almost went crazy because the aura of a nearby demon, and it lead us straight to your room luckily you've already left when he raided the room.”

 

Kagome's face turned horrid for a couple of seconds then it lighted up, and in the end one of her biggest smiles took over. “What's wrong sis?” Souta asked not knowing what his sister planned.

 

“Nothing... I just wanted to introduce someone to you, and maybe he could change the view our... ahem “Protector” ”

 

=The Warring States Era=======================================================

 

Kagome got close to the village with her mother, and brother in tow. “SHIPPO! I WANT YOU TO MEET SOMEONE!” she called out then looked around to see if the kitsune was coming, she was about to call him again when she literally got ran over by the boy.

 

“Mommy mommy you're back!” he yelled in joy, and placed a huge kiss on Kagome's cheek.

 

Kagome turned to her escort “I want you two to meet the newest member of our family... His name is Shippo. Shippo! I want you to meat your uncle his name is Souta, and the lady on his left is your grandmother.”

 

The kitsune jumped to the ground, and bowed to greet the two humans.

 

Souta and Mrs. Higurashi stared at Kagome in disbelief, after some time Souta could open his mouth but was still paralyzed because of Shippo's last statement. “Did he really call you mom?” he asked. Looks like his brain still needs some time to process everything what's going on.

 

“I think we should introduce him to grandpa before I tell him everything maybe he'll stay calm and won't panic. He still thinks that all demons are killing machines.” Kagome schooled.

 

The new grandma slowly started to come back. “I...I see h...hi Shippo.” The fox jumped on her neck and gave her a welcome hug. Then turned to Souta who was still in a trance, no wonder this would be an awkward situation for anyone, he was the uncle of a boy that was in the same age as he was, and the fact that boy is a demon made it even weirder.

 

“Hey wanna be my friend?” the kitsune asked from Souta.

 

“Of course let's go play!” Souta replied and the two raced off towards the village. Kagome just smiled she never thought that the two kids would become friends that fast.

 

Mrs. Higurashi gazed at her daughter still not believing that Kagome also became a mother. /If things continue this way in a couple of hours she'll tell me that she really married Inuyasha./ the older mother really had enough surprises for a day but in the end her face also became happy even the old man would quickly become attached to a great-grandson like Shippo.
