Hanyou's Daughter Epilogue

A/n: this is the last chapter. I will make a sequel don't worry! See you guys in the next story then. Please look for it! bye!

Shika was running in the darkness. It was hard to tell where she was, but she didn't care. She did as she was told and kept thinking of her time. She remembered her mother, her friends, school, and her favorite places. Suddenly, there was a bright light and she stopped running. She opened her eyes and looked around. She was standing on a sidewalk. The sun was setting and it was almost night. She noticed she was by the park near her house. She decided to walk through the park to get home. As she walked, she reached into her bag to get her flute, but it wasn't there.

DAMNIT! I left it there! Now I don't have my flute. What do I do now.? I can't go back and get it. Man, I hope whoever finds that takes care of it because I need it back.

What am I going to tell Sensei?! She walked the rest of the way in silence. When she got to her front door, she was about to knock when the door opened and her mother stood with watering eyes. She indeed did look like Kagome and Kikyo. She had the same eyes, hair, and everything. She took Shika into her arms and sobbed,

"Why did you go?! I thought you were never going to come home again. Your friends and schoolmates were so worried!" Shika just stood, thinking about what had happened before she had left.

"Mom. I need to ask you something."

"Yes?"

"Why did you change your name? You couldn't have been Kikyo."

"I did it. because I wanted to protect you."

"Protect me from what?! THE TRUTH!? You're always sheltering me from the real world, thinking that I can't do anything for myself, but I CAN! I grew up while I was in the Past and I can handle the truth!" There was a long silence and she finally answered,

"Alright. I changed my name because it who I really was. I am just a reincarnate."

"I like Kagome better. I think you should change it back," Shika walked into the house and ran up the stairs into her room, leaving her mother in the doorway. It was a girl's type of room, with pink wallpaper and white furniture. She flopped down on her bed and looked out the big window, at her favorite spot in the yard. It was a big tree, about 60 or 70 years old. She had climbed the tree when she was little and played with her dolls under its shade.

I really missed being here. I'm glad I'm home, but I wish I could have seen Tamahome one last time. I will never be able to see him again. Why did it have to end like that.?

Sleepiness overcame her and she drifted into a restful sleep.

In the morning, Shika got ready for school as usual, like nothing had happened. She packed all her school things and went out before she could see her mother. It was as if nothing had changed. As she neared the school, her friends greeted her.

"OHMIGOD! She's back!" a girl shrieked and tackled her from behind. Shika knew who it was immediately. It was Ariauna.

"Yes, I am back. I just felt really bad. I guess I had a really bad case of ammonia or something," Shika faked a cough.

"SERIOUS?! That's why your mom wouldn't let us visit! She was all like, 'She can't see anyone because she's sick and I don't want you guys to get it, too'"

"Yea. That's why." Another girl came up to Shika and waved. Her name was Rei.

"We have an exchange student from America! He came today! He's so cool! At least, I think so!" A bunch of girls surrounded Shika and Ariauna and voiced their opinions at once. It was a big mob of girls. Shika eventually squeezed out of the mob and fell back. She walked to the classroom on her own. She felt a small tap on her shoulder. A male voice was talking to her. A suddenly familiar voice.

"I believe you left this behind when I last saw you," Shika whirled around and saw a boy holding a flute to her.

"M-my flute? I thought I had left-" he interrupted her stuttering.

"You did. I'm just giving it back," When he smiled and she realized it was Tamahome. It was the same face from the past.

"TAMAHOME!" she screamed and fell into his embrace. Tears were welling up in her eyes. Everyone turned to stare at the two hugging each other.

"Yes, but I am Tony for now. Don't tell them, okay?" he whispered into her ear. The students turned away to get ready for class.

"Okay! I'm just glad to see you again. Did Yoshio tell you that I said good bye?" She said as she tried to rub the tears away.

"No. I never saw him after that. I know you had to leave, though. They were looking for you," Ariauna came in between them.

"Wait. You guys know each other?" She looked at Shika and then at Tamahome.

"Yes. He came to visit a long time ago and. I gave him my special flute. and he gave it back!" Shika quickly fibbed. "You went to America, huh?"

"Yes, actually. It was an adventure."

"Okay then. We'll see you guys in class," Ariauna grabbed Rei and rushed off to class, leaving Tamahome and Shika alone.

"Who was looking for me now?"

"Sesshomaru and Kikyo."

"Kikyo was still alive?! Sheesh. I didn't really do anything, huh?" she held her flute for a while and smiled. "I'm glad to have this thing back," she ran her hands over the mouthpiece of the flute and blew into it. A mellow note came out and Tamahome smiled.

"I waited for centuries. I was just waiting to hear your voice again," Shika was taken aback.

"I waited for a day and a half!" she laughed.

"I am glad we're together again," he said as he grabbed her wrist. "But, we're late for class!" and with that, they rushed on to school.

Meanwhile.

"Excuse me, Sir. I need to change my name."

"Alright, Miss. Please fill out the form." The woman took the form the man handed to her and filled it out. At the bottom, she signed; Kagome.
