InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ The Parent Trap (Inuyasha Style) ❯ Chapter 10

At the Shikon Mansion in Kasumi's room. Kasumi and Kayko sit on the bed eating chips.

"Ok so now we have Mom and Dad in the same house. What you think?" Kayko questions. Kasumi lays on her stomach trying to think.

"It's really simple we take out Kikyo and we're done." Kasumi shrugs not putting much thought in the matter. Kayko sighs shaking her head knowing it was going to take her brain power to figure this out because Kasumi's is still developing.

"It's simple Kasumi. Are you forgetting that Mom and Dad are the two most stubborn people ever it won't be easy to get them to admit their admit their mistakes and to say sorry. It's going to take a lot of work to get them together.

Later that night everyone is having dinner in the diner room. Atsuki looks at Kagome and forces a smile on her face.

"So Kagome I hear that your wedding dress business is doing well."

"Um yes it is." Kagome nods.

"And your dresses are gorgeous I hope from this whole mishaps you won't change your mind about my dress." Kikyo pouts. Kagome laughs and shakes her head.

"Oh no. A customer is a customer and I can't lose one for something as petty." Kagome smiles and sips her drink. Kiyko's mother steps in.

"How long have you been making dresses?" She questions Kagome.

"About 15 years." Kagome answers.

"So you must be very wealthy." There's a sparkle in Alicia's eyes. Kagome sighs and shrugs.

"Something like that. I honestly prefer to stay with the middle class."

"Why dear? Don't you want power? Power is everything." She tells Kagome. Kagome shakes her head no.

"No power is for control freaks and I just so happen to deicide I don't want to be like that." Kagome tells her looking at Atsuki. Inuyasha senses the tension between his mother and Kagome.

"WOW! Sango this bake ziti is great! What did you put in it?" He questions loudly looking at the noodles with cheese sauce. Sango smirks.

"I put my foot in it."

"You sure did. It's great." Miroku rubs his stomach deciding to help Inuyasha out. Inuyasha gives him a small smile of thanks. Miroku nods his head slightly. Kagome turns to their conversation.

"Yeah Sango I always thought you were an excellent cook."

"Aww thank you Kag." She smiles. Alicia studies Kagome closely and remembers her response.

"Say Kagome you were never in the high class were you?"

"No I wasn't." She answers confidently. Kikyo raises her eyebrow.

"So how did you meet Inuyasha then?"

"We went to the same college. My family didn't have the money to get me into a good college but since I was very smart I got a scholarship. My high school GPA was a 98.9." Kagome smiles proudly knowing that they may have money but they would never match up with her smarts. Inuyasha smiles at her, Kagome gives him a small smile before looking down at her plate. Kikyo see this she becomes jealous and decide to get on Kagome's bad side and embarrass her.

(A/N: At least she's not drunk but still a mad Kagome scary)

"So how did you support your child when you weren't well known for your dresses?" Kikyo sits back in her seat smiling widely knowing by Kagome's face she wasn't happy. Kayko and Kasumi gives Kikyo a dirty sly look. Kagome puts her fork down and looks directly at Kikyo who is right across from her. Sesshoumaru puts his fork down and smiles knowing this was about to get good.

"What are you trying to say Kikyo?" Kagome gives her mean look. Kikyo shrugs her shoulders.

"Nothing really. I'm just saying without a lot of money how did you support your child as a single parent?" Kikyo smirks at Kagome's hurt face. Kayko growls and stands looking at Kikyo.

"We may not have had a lot of money like this estate or anything. But we weren't poor. She gave me what I wanted when she could and I'm happy for that. And I rather live my life then to be some rich pampered brat." Kayko snaps at Kikyo. Kasumi raises her eyebrow and look at her sister.

"Hello?" She holds her hands out. "I'm not a pampered brat." Kasumi crosses her arms. Kayko starts laughing.

"Oh come on Kasumi you so are to. I was you." They both start laughing. Kayko sits back down Kagome smiles at her daughter.

"I couldn't have said it better myself." Kagome winks.

"And by the way why do we have social classes anyway. It's just separating people." Miroku says looking around. Inuyasha sighs.

"Sango how did get the noodles so soft?" Inuyasha questions trying to keep an argument from forming.

"Miroku does have a point. Even though I always grew up in a high estate I never thought it was necessary to show it off. I would hardly ever mention it." Rin adds in.

"Of course I have a point it's true." Miroku nods his head.

"Yeah but with money, you never go hungry or be without a home." Kikyo shrugs.

"That is true. But why buy a big mansion for only five people in the house. It makes no sense at all." Kagome says. "Why not spend it on people that need it like homeless children with no clothes or food instead on stuff you don't bother using." Kagome smiles knowing she just made Kikyo look dumb. Kikyo clears throat.

"That is true." Kikyo forces herself to say and pretends to smile. "I guess that's why you choose to have low class clothes and waste all that money you make." Kikyo snaps. Kagome's jaw tightens and she gets ready to say something. Inuyasha stands up slamming his hands on the table.

"LOOK! We are all here to have a nice dinner. So let's cut the shit with the who has more money then the next and why they don't use their money. Each person feels different about it. Kagome feels upper class people are snooty and no good and she's 97% right and Kikyo feels being rich is good and you live comfortable with out worry which is true too. But geez who cares! I much rather talk about Sango's bake ziti then this." He takes a breath and takes a sit continuing to eat. Kayko and Kasumi cover their mouths so they don't start laughing.

The next day Inuyasha loads his jeep up for the camping trip. Kikyo stands watching him wearing a tight white mini skirt a yellow tank top that exposes her stomach and cleavage and white sneakers. She puts her sunglasses on and puts her hands on her hips. She then sees Kagome walking out the house wearing camp gear.

"Excuse me, what is she doing?" Kikyo looks at him.

"The deal was the four of us go camping together."

"What do you mean deal? What kind of parents are you? You like your 15 year old run you. This is rid-" She cuts herself off as Kagome walks up to them.

"Hi Kikyo." She sees Kikyo's unhappy and smiles. "Is everything ok?"

"Actually no everything is not ok. I didn't know you was going on this camp trip either and I'm not ok with it." Kikyo states bluntly crossing her arms. Kagome looks at her and nods her head.

"You know, I totally agree. I won't be comfortable either if I was you. The ex wife a sleeping bag away in the same tent because those tents holds two people the max I think. So I agree with you." Kagome nods her head.

"Thank you." Kikyo says.

"I insist you come with us."

"What?!" Inuyasha and Kikyo say at the same time.

"It's the least I can do. I messed up everything the whole weekend and everything. It's the least I can do." Kagome smiles.

Kayko, Kasumi and Sango walk out the house. Kayko and Kasumi climb into the jeep. Kagome and Kikyo walk out the house, Kikyo is now dressed in a black work out outfit. Kasumi looks at Inuyasha.

"Dad what is Kikyo doing here?" She questions him. He gets in the car and looks at them.

"Your mother invited her and be nice." He tells them mainly looking at Kasumi. Kasumi and Kayko look at each other then they look at Sango who just shakes her head. Kagome walks up to the jeep and closes Kikyo's door for her.

"Ok. Have fun everyone." She smiles. Inuyasha looks confused.

"Kag what are you doing?"

"I really think you and Kikyo need time alone before the big day." She smiles crossing her arms. Sango, Kayko and Kasumi looks at her like she has five heads.

"Mom that is sooo not part of the plan." Kayko looks desperate. Kagome waves her hand at her and laughs.

"Honestly honey you'll have more fun without me." She smiles sincerely. Kikyo thinks about herself going and laughs a little.

"Well then in that case. If you're not going then there's no need for me. To go. I hate the woods."

"But this will give you a chance to get to know the girls together. Starting next week they'll be half yours." Kagome smiles. Kikyo looks down, Inuyasha looks at Kagome still confused. Kagome smiles and blows him a kiss. "Have fun all of you." Inuyasha pulls out the drive way and leaves the house with a very pissed Kayko and Kasumi. Sango turns to Kagome.

"I would pay to see that woman climb a mountain." Sango says. They both start laughing as they walk into the mansion.

After Inuyasha parks his jeep. They all begin to climb up a steep hill with Inuyasha all the way in front, Kayko and Kasumi in the middle and Kikyo all the way in the back trying to keep up. Once the get up the hill, Kikyo plops down on a boulder taking a breath.

"This is absolutely ridiculous. I can't believe people do this for fun." Kikyo complains.

"Girls hold on we're stopping." Inuyasha tells them. Kasumi moans.

"Again Dad? At this rate it'll take three days to get up this mountain." Kasumi groans.

"Come on Kikyo isn't use to this. So give her a break." He says putting his hand on her back. Kayko sits behind Kikyo and Inuyasha and she begins putting LARGE rocks in Kikyo's backpack. Kikyo moans rubbing her head.

"Someone give my water bottle."

"Here you go Kikyo." Kasumi gives her water bottle smiling. Kayko closes her backpack and sees a small lizard. Kasumi see it too Inuyasha walks off and Kasumi quickly puts the lizard on Kikyo's head. The lizard crawls on her forward head and down on her nose. Kikyo starts screaming shaking herself like a madwoman. Kayko and Kasumi starts cracking up.

"EWWW THAT WAS GROSS!!!"

"What happened?" Inuyasha questions.

"There was a small lizard on Kikyo." Kayko shrugs.
"Oh. Well I'm going to take the lead and you two help Kikyo." Inuyasha tells them and walks off. Kikyo puts her backpack on.

"Sure them help me. They'll help right off a cliff."

"Hey that's not a bad idea. Do you see any cliffs?" Kasumi smiles. Kikyo squares her eyes at Kasumi. Kayko starts laughing.

"Oh it's so heavy."

"You need help Kikyo?" Kayko questions her smiling. Kikyo scoffs.

"No, not from you. Don't try your innocent looks on me I'm not stupid, I know you two are up for tricks and if you pull one more like that. I will your lives miserable from the day I say I do. GOT IT?" She looks at them sternly. They both look at each other smile innocent.

"Got it Mommy." She rolls her eyes and walks off. They both start laughing.

Later that night they sit by camp fire eating trout. Kikyo wraps a blanket around her hitting bugs off her.

"Are you sure you don't some trout Mom. Is it ok that we start calling you Mom?" Kayko smiles. Kikyo growls thought she would mind very much if they called her Mom.

"I think your mother would prefer you call me Kikyo. And no I don't want trout I hate trout. What's for breakfast?"

"Trout." Inuyasha answers. Kikyo growls and keeps hitting her arms.

"What is with this stuff. It's suppose to be the best bug repellent but it's doing nothing."

"What are you using?" Inuyasha puts his plate down and takes the repellent from her putting some in his hand. "Of course you're getting bit up, it's sugar and water." He tells her. Kayko and Kasumi stuff food in their mouths so they don't start laughing. Kikyo looks at them getting mad.

"You know what. I'm going to take a large sleeping pill and I'm calling it a night." She sits on Inuyasha's and gives him a deep passionate kiss. Kayko and Kasumi look at each other disgustedly. Kikyo smiles at their girls knowing that they are pissed.

"Good night girls."

"Goodnight mother dearest." They both day smiling sweetly. Kikyo walks into the tent. Inuyasha takes this as his chance to talk to them.

"Girls, lay off."

"We didn't do anything." Kasumi shrugs.

"Look this is her first time doing this. So just relax."

Later that night, Kayko and Kasumi carry Kikyo out of her tent on her air mattress with much difficulty. They carry her to the river, they look at each other and push the mattress into the river. Kayko hugs Kasumi's arm giggling. Kasumi smiles proudly.

"Sweet dreams mother dearest."

The next morning Kikyo opens her eyes and rolls out her mattress falling into the water. She begins screaming out for Inuyasha. Inuyasha looks out the tent and sees his fiancé in the lake.

"What is she doing in the middle of the lake?" He looks confused. Kayko and Kasumi look at smiling. Inuyasha walks out the tent as Kikyo furiously stomps over to him soak in water.

"What's going on Kikyo?"

"I'll tell you what's going on. The day I say I DO I want those brats off to Hong Kong or whatever their mother lives!! Do you get the picture it's either me or them! Take your pick." She crosses her arms looking at him. He looks at his daughters then he looks at Kikyo smiling.

"Them."

"Excuse me?" Kikyo steps back not believing his choice.

"Them. I'm sorry nobody comes before my daughters." He shrugs.
