Recap

Kagome kissed Akemi's forehead, and the girl fell asleep almost instantly.

"Not tootempermental. I'm glad she didn't have a tantrum." Kagome sighed, watching Akemi as she slept. "So if I'm her mother in some impossible way, who's her father?" She asked, starting to believe the girl. 'If it's possible for me to travel 500 years to the past, I shouldn't be picky on what weird stuff I believe."

"I think a certain half-demonmight have something to do with it..." Miroku whispered to Songo.

"Yep." She replied.

"We should get to sleep. I have the feeling tomorrow will be a long day..." Kagome yawned, getting into her sleeping bag.

She fell asleep thinking of Inuyasha. She missed him, and was worried about him. She hoped he would be back tomorrow.


Instant Parents

Chapter 2: Daddy?

Kagome woke up several hours later. At first she thought it had been a dream, but she looked around and Inuyasha was still gone, and Akemi's bed was there. Though, she wasn't in it. Miroku and Songo were still asleep, but there was no sign of her anywhere. It was dawn now, so hopefully Inuyasha would be back soon.

"Daddy!" She heard Akemi outside.

"What did you call me?" She heard Inuyasha say.

"Mommy, Mommy! I found Daddy!" Akemi yelled, excitedly.

She lead Inuyasha into the hut, holding his hand. Akemi now had ears like Inuyasha, and silver streaks in her hair. She also had grown claws and fangs. Inuyasha was also changed, but back into his normal hanyou form.

He looked bewildered. They were both absolutely speechless. The only reaction was a bright red blush on each of their faces, while Akemi stood there, looking at them with a big smile on her face.

"Akemi, you have dog ears? And claws and fangs?" Kagome finally broke the silence.

"You didn't notice, Mommy? Daddy gave them to me when I was born!" Akemi said.

"But they weren't like that last night." Kagome responded.

"I lose them when Daddy does!" Akemi told her.

"What is up with this kid, and why does she think we're her parents? And how does she know about last night?" Inuyasha finally managed to compose himself and ask.

"We found her last night. She was calling Miroku 'Uncle Miroku' and Songo 'Aunt Songo' last night." Kagome explained

"Naraku is low!" Inuyasha clenched his fist.

"This isn't Naraku's doing. It can't be. This has got to be something else entirely." Kagome shook her head.

"Then what is it?" Inuyasha asked, annoyed.

"Well I don't know. We've encountered weirder things before." Kagome told him.

"Akemi, can you tell Mommy where you came from?" Kagome asked Akemi.

"Mommy, you're always being so silly! I came from you and Daddy!" She answered.

"No, I mean before we found you last night. Where were you?" Kagome corrected her question

"I was with brother and sister! But I smelled you so I came looking for you Mommy! Then a spider scared me. Daddy, can you kill the spider?" Akemi turned to Inuyasha, with a pleading look on her face.

"All the demons out there, and she wants me to kill a spider?" Inuyasha rolled his eyes.

"Wait, Akemi, you have a brother and sister? How old are they?" Kagome asked, looking at her intently.

"Brother Kiyoshi is 9, and Sister Haruka is 13. Oh and Mommy, you and Daddy said I was going to have another brother or sister soon!" She said, looking at both of them.

Kagome and Inuyasha blushed.

"Do you know where your brother and sister are?" Kagome changed the subject back

"No." Akemi shook her head.

"Kagome, I'm back!" Shippo yelled, coming into the hut.

"Shippo!" Akemi shouted, waking up Miroku and Songo momentarily

"Uh, hi Shippo. How was kitsune training?" Kagome asked.

"It was great. Who is she?" Shippo inquired, pointing to Akemi.

"This is Akemi. She supposidly is my and Inuyasha's daughter." Kagome announced with a blush.

"How?" Shippo asked suspiciously.

"I don't know. Could you take her outside and play with her?

"I guess. Come on Akemi." Shippo lead Akemi out of the hut.

"Let's talk about this outside." Kagome said, looking over at Miroku and Songo. They didn't look too pleased with all this extra noise.

They walked out, and sat under a tree, watching Akemi and Shippo play.

"That kid has gone crazy." Inuyasha shook his head.

"I believe her." Kagome said simply.

"What?!" Inuyasha stared wide-eyed at Inuyasha.

"Think about it. She looks like both you and me, she knows who everyone is, and she knows our scents. She even knows about raman and loves it!" Kagome listed her evidence.

"Naraku can make a incarnation do all of that." Inuyasha argued.

"Does she smell of Naraku?" Kagome questioned,

"No." Inuyasha sighed

"And she doesn't have a jewel shard, so I'm choosing to believe her. A 3-year-old could not pull off a trick like this." Kagome pointed out.

"Well you believe her, and I'll save you when it goes up in flames." Inuyasha said sarcastically.

"Here, Daddy! I love you!" Akemi walked up and gave Inuyasha a flower she'd just picked. Then she kissed him on the cheek, and ran off back to Shippo.

He was speechless. Not in his lifetime had someone done something like that to him. She was so sincere to, she couldn't have been acting. His heart melted a bit.

"She reminds me of you." Inuyasha admitted to Kagome.

"And she reminds me of you, at points." Kagome admitted, thinking of the raman.

Inuyasha took Kagome's hand in his, smiling at her. She rested her head on his shoulder, with a smile on her face too.

"Ahhh!" Akemi yelped.

Both Inuyasha and Kagome instinctively jumped up and went over to her.

"What did you do to her?!" Inuyasha grabbed Shippo by his tail, he was furious.

"I accidentally pushed her down when we were playing tag!" Shippo answered, afraid of what was going to happen to him.

"Are you okay?" Kagome asked Akemi in a worried voice. She held the little girl in her arms as she cried.

"My knee!" Akemi screamed in pain.

Kagome looked at Akemi's knee, to find a scrape.

"You'll be okay, honey. Why don't we give you a bath to clean you up?" Kagome suggested.

"You cleaned me up last night though, Mommy." Akemi reminded her.

"I know, but only your face and hands. We should give you a full bath and find you some clean cloths." Kagome told her,

"I'm not taking a bath!" Akemi growled.

"I'll take one with you." Kagome promised.

"No!" Akemi said, flatly.

"You can have raman after!" Kagome offered, taking advantage of Akemi's love for raman.

"Okay." Akemi grumbled.

"She defiantly takes after Inuyasha..." Shippo laughed.

"Why you little!" Inuyasha went to hit Shippo.

"Sit!" Kagome said, Inuyasha crashing straight to the ground, while Shippo landed safely.

"Uh-Oh! Daddy's in trouble! Mommy always says the 'S' word when Daddy's in trouble!" Akemi giggled.

"Let's go take that bath!" Kagome said happily, walking off with Akemi in her arms.

She borrowed a kimono to fit Akemi from one of the other villagers and took Akemi to the stream where the villagers washed. She washed Akemi's hair, and got the dirt and mud off of her, then washed herself. Then she saw Inuyasha walking over toward them. Luckily Kagome was in a bathing suit, so she didn't need to cover up.

"What's up?" She asked.

"Akemi's scent, it's different. Before, she smelled of mud and other people, but now she smells like... you... and me... both our scents mixed together." Inuyasha confessed.

"You believe me, now?" Kagome asked him.

"Maybe you're right..." Inuyasha admitted.

"Woah, who are you, and what have you done with my Inuyasha?" Kagome looked at him in disbelief.

"I saw Kikyo last night..." Inuyasha said.

'Oh no, nothing good ever starts with that...' Kagome thought.

"I told her that I couldn't be with her. I told her that she makes me feel guilty for not being with her though she's dead. I want to have a life with you and my other friends, not an eternity in Hell with her." Inuyasha said.

"Inuyasha!" Kagome began to tear up.

"Kagome, are you okay?" He asked, not knowing why she was crying.

"Yes." Kagome wiped her eyes, and wrapped a towel around Akemi.

She dried herself and Akemi off and dressed her. Then she sent Akemi off with Inuyasha while she dressed. She walked into the hut to find Inuyasha boiling water for raman.

They ate in silence, and Miroku and Songo were suspicious of what was going on.

"Inuyasha, you went to see Kikyo, didn't you! That's why things are so awkward." Miroku accused.

"None of your business!" Inuyasha growled,

"Akemi!" A woman shouted from outside.


Sorry, I didn't mean to end it like that, but my mom wanted the computer. I'll get another chapter up when I can.
