An Unexpected Guest
Chapter 4: It never was a dream
Written by DoReMi
Disclaimer: I don't own Inuyasha. However, I made up the character of Yaku.
This is my first time writing a fanfiction. Hope you will like or enjoy it! (^_^)
I couldn't believe you guyz actually thought last chapter was the ending. heheheh ... (o^_^o) I would believe chapter 3 is the ending too, if I hadn't written chapter 4. In the summary of this fanfic, I did said *~ In Progress ~*.Yaku woke up and smelled that dinner is ready. He ran down the staircase, and sat on one of the chair near the dining table. Kagome and her mom started to bring the dishes out from the kitchen at that time.
"I see you had finally woke up," Kagome's mom said smiling.
"So feeling better now? Not dizzy anymore?" Kagome asked Yaku.
"I feel much better now. What will we have for dinner?" Yaku asked.
"We are going to eat shrimp and vegetable tempura, pork katsu (agemono), and yosenabe (nabemono)," Kagome said.
"Yummy," Yaku said and licked his lips to show he can't wait to start eating.
Both Kagome and her mom laguhed at his cute gesture.
"What are you guys laughing about?" Yaku asked cluelessly.
His great grandpa and his uncle Souta came into the dining room at that time.
"What is so funny?" Souta asked them.
"That's what I want to know, but they won't tell me," Yaku said.
His great grandpa just ignored all of them, and sat on his seat.
Yaku felt hungry and ignored what they laughed about, and asked, "Can we eat yet?"
All five of them sat on their seats, and started eating their dinner. After dinner, Yaku was eagered to help them wash the dishes. But they thought he was still too little, so they said he could start washing dishes when he is a little older.
When Kagome finished washing the dishes, she went to look for Yaku. However, he was nowhere to be seen inside the house. So she went outside to look for him. She saw him lying against the Goshinoboku and looked toward the well house with interest.
"Don't even think about going near or inside there anymore, OK?" Kagome told Yaku loudly, and started to walk toward him.
She sat down next to him, and Yaku asked her, "Mama, how come you don't want me to go near or enter that well house?"
"Because I don't want you to go there and never come back. There is not safe," Kagome told him.
"So is the place I dreamt about going is real?" Yaku asked and sounded surprise.
"You can say that," Kagome replied.
"Mama, can I ask you something? But can you promise me you won't feel sad or want to cry once I asked about it?" Yaku asked.
"Ok, I promise," Kagome said smiling.
"Mama, can you tell me who is my papa? Is that 'old man' in my dream really is my papa?" Yaku asked.
Kagome became quiet, and there were a moment of silence. Yaku stared at his mom, and saw her face was inexpressive.
"Mama," Yaku called out, and tried to shake his mom, so she would give him some type of response.
"Yaku," Kagome called out with a hint of sadness.
"You promised me you won't be sad," Yaku stated.
"If you are wondering about whether or not that 'old man' in your dream is your papa, tell me what does that 'old man' looked like?" Kagome asked softly.
"He looked quite similar to me in some ways. We had the same silvery white hair, white fluffy ears, amber colored eye, and wore the same red haori and hakama I'm wearing right now," Yaku said.
Deep down, Kagome exactly know who is Yaku describing. "What is his personality like?" Kagome asked.
Yaku's face changed to one of dislike. "He is very rude, and don't really listen to the person that look like you in my dream. He always called me 'brat'," Yaku stated. But his face changed to a look of amusement when Yaku said, "he would crash to the ground whenever you said, 'sit'."
"That's just like Inuyasha," Kagome said quietly.
"How do you know that is his name?" Yaku questioned.
"Yaku, follow me," Kagome said.
They started to walk toward the well house. She opened the door, and walked inside it. Yaku followed her, and thought, "I thought mama doesn't want me to enter here anymore. So how come she asked me to follow her inside this well house?"
"I had something to show you," Kagome told Yaku.
She crouched down to the ground, and knocked on the wooden floor. "I wonder what is mama doing right now, and what does she want to show me," Yaku thought curiously.
While knocking the wooden floor, Kagome found the one she was looking for. The sound that came out from this one was different compared to the others. It sounded like the ground underneath the wooden floor is hollow. She started to lift that part out, and revealed a small square-shaped box inside it.
When she took out that box from the secret compartment, Yaku saw that one-side had a small branch of cherry blossom, and the other-side had a small branch of peach blossom. She sat down on the floor and Yaku followed her. He sat beside his mom, and he saw her took off the necklace around her neck.
"Mama never took off that necklace, which had a small platinum key as its charm. I wonder what is inside that little box," Yaku thought.
"Yaku, get the flashlight out of there," Kagome said. Yaku went to there, got the flashlight out of there, and returned to sit next to his mom.
She placed the box on her lap, and used the key to open the little box. Once opened, Yaku saw two little pieces of glasses that were not more than an inch inside that box. She took out one of the small glasses from the box, and hold it between her index finger and thumb by the edge.
"Turn on the flashlight," Kagome told her son.
"Ok," he said, and thought, "Mama probably wanted me to turn on the flashlight because outside is getting dark, and there is no light inside the well house."
"Yaku, point that flashlight toward this," she said.
When he did that, he saw an image on the wall.
"What is this?" Yaku questioned with surprise.
"This is what some people call a magic glass. It had a image or picture imprinted into it. Had you seen any of the people in this glass?" Kagome questioned.
"They look very familiar. They seem like the people I met in my dream. Mama, you are in this picture too. But you look a bit more older compared to the other you in my dream," Yaku said to her.
"I was about the age of 19 when I took this picture. The other people in this picture are my friends from Segoku Jidai. The one that look like a monk named Miroku. The lady with a huge boomerang named Sango. The little kid that you thought were a raccoon is actually a fox kitsune, and his name is Shippo. The person that look like the 'old man' you described is Inuyasha, and he is your papa," Kagome said quietly.
