Summer Days
Author's Note: This is my first Inuyasha fic so I may get a few facts wrong since I've just started watching this show from the second episode and so far I'm up to the 20th one, so please go easy, my facts may be wrong., and I hope some of my spelling is right. The gang has seen Miyamoto and fought him. He plays dirty and has taken Inu away. Now the group has to find him once again. hoping they'll ever see him again.
Disclaimer: I don't own Inuyasha or the characters! But I do own Inu! YEAH! *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~ *~*~* Chapter 24
Miyamoto looked at his arm where his hand had been sliced off. He swore as he looked at it and his minions cringed. "Master, the young one has transformed tonight." Said Chiisai, who had joined them. Miyamoto looked at him and nodded. It had been a week since they had kidnapped Inu. They had pretty much brained washed him and now had him in a samurai uniform (like the one Kohaku had on when he was attacking people).
"Bring the boy here so that I may see him." He ordered. Chiisai looked at him nervously.
"He is out, sitting among the trees, me Lord. But his transformation has in looking him the form of his father, Lord Inuyasha." He answered.
"Well as his guardian, you must go watch him. We don't need him making any contact with anything that will remind him of his family." He ordered.
"Aye me lord." Answered Chiisai quickly and left to find Inu. When he did, the quarter demon was sitting in a tree, his silver hair blowing in the wind and his dog like ears flattened on his head as he stared at the sky. "Young Inu! The master request your presence!" he called.
"Then have him come get me himself." Muttered Inu bitterly. Though brain washed, the boy seemed to display more of Inuyasha's personality traits now. Chiisai looked at the boy in shock.
"Well young sire, he would but he's a bit preoccupied with the loss of his hand." He answered.
"Feh." Muttered Inu and jumped out of the tree. He was starting to walk back with Chiisai when they heard a noise. Chiisai turned around and gasped at the sight of a young woman pointing an arrow in their direction.
"Stop where you are Inuyasha." She yelled. Inu looked over his shoulder and scowled.
"Inuyasha? Who do you think you are?" he asked, turning around and glaring at her. She lowered her arrow and stared at him in shock. Inu raised an eyebrow at her. "You're that old witch, Kikyo." He said.
"Witch? Who are you child?" she asked. Inu turned his back to her.
"It's none of your concern. and I'd appreciate it if you'd never mistake me for my father again." He began walking off and Chiisai followed close behind.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Inuyasha sat next to Miroku as they watched Sango and Kagome. For the past nine days, Kagome has been depressed and nothing like any of them have ever seen her before. Sango had pointed out that she felt it was her fault that Miyamoto had taken Inu away and she couldn't get over the guilt. The day she was suppose to go back to her time, she only stayed for a few hours before returning. She was determined to get him back and made it clear. "I've never seen her this way before." Said Miroku quietly. Inuyasha nodded in agreement. "She hasn't eaten full meals and she hasn't smiled too much since Inu's disappearance. We should try and make her smile." Miroku suggested. Inuyasha raised an eyebrow at the monk.
"And how do you expect us to do that?" he asked. Miroku stood up and grinned.
"I don't know about you, but I'm the master at making women smile!" he piped and Inuyasha watched as he went over to Kagome and Sango, saying something with a wide grin. Sango suddenly stood up and turned to Kagome, obviously having agreed to whatever the monk had said. Then, without warning, he slapped her butt, causing Sango to snap and beginning chasing after him with her boomerang. Inuyasha shook his head, but noticed a small smile form on Kagome's face. He got up and went over to sit next to her, though he didn't look at her.
"Feeling any better?" he asked. She looked up at him and shook her head.
"He's so young, Inuyasha. Why would Miyamoto want to take him away?" she asked. Inuyasha let out a sigh and looked at the sky.
"I wouldn't know." He answered. "He's probably going to eat him." Everyone looked at Shippo with wide eyes. "That's what really bad demons do! I'm surprised Sesshomaru hasn't eaten that Rin girl." Inuyasha narrowed his eyes at the little fox demon and turned to Kagome who had brought her knees up to her chest and began crying yet again. Inuyasha bonged Shippo on the head and hen put a protective arm around Kagome.
"It's all my fault!" she cried and turned to Inuyasha, clutching onto his kimono and crying into his chest.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Kaede looked out into the fields where she saw the group sitting, and once again Kagome crying. The girl hadn't been right since the day Inu was taken away and wasn't detecting jewel shards correctly. She couldn't make up her mind which direction to go and complained constantly about having headaches. "He's found someone to replace me I see." Kaede turned around and Kikyo was standing not too far behind her leaning into a tree.
"Kikyo. what are you doing here?" Kaede asked, shocked to see her older sister had returned.
"I used to live here Kaede. I should be allowed to return to my home once in a while." Kaede nodded and smiled at her sister. "he's replaced me with the girl who destroyed the Shikon Jewel."
"No. It seems he replaced her with you at one time." Said Kaede. Kikyo looked at her with a questioning look. "Inuyasha has known Kagome since they were mere whelps." She informed.
"How so?"
"I am not sure. But Kagome told me about it and Inuyasha approved it all." Kikyo scowled and looked over at the group. She didn't seem to approve of Kagome being in Inuyasha's arms any more than she liked the thought of ever being used to replace the memory of another. "Dear sister, was here something you cared to discuss with me?" asked Kaede. Kikyo turned to her and nodded.
"I have reason to believe Inuyasha has a son."
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Chiisai had Inu follow him to a main room where Miyamoto sat waiting, his minions close to his side. "Me Lord, I have the child." He said with a bow. Miyamoto looked up and nodded. Chiisai turned to Inu. "Go on." He said. Inu rolled his eyes and went up to Miyamoto. Unlike the others, he didn't bow.
"You wanted to see me?" he asked. Miyamoto looked the boy over. "Well?"
"Yes, I did request your presence. " he answered. "You're a spitting image of your father, young Inu." He said. Inu scowled.
"What would you know about my father?" he asked. Miyamoto laughed.
"A lot more than you'd think, you one." He answered and flexed his fingers. "He was a half breed and your mother a mere mortal. Its no wonder they gave up on you right before your birthday." He answered. Inu looked at the ground.
"Did you jus call me here to insult me?" he asked. "Because it's not working." Chiisai looked from Miyamoto to Inu and cleared his throat to clear the silence.
"Chiisai, take him out of my presence. I wish to be alone now." Miyamoto ordered.
"And I wish you'd burn in." Inu didn't get it all out before Chiisai grabbed his hand and pulled him out.
"You have to work on your anger, young one." He said. Inu scowled and pulled his hand away from the small demon.
"You'd be angry too if your parents and family abandoned you." Muttered Inu. "And who is Miyamoto to talk bad about them. He's all lies."
"Is he sire?" asked Chiisai.
"Well. I dunno. I can't remember a thing about either of them." Inu answered and looked at Chiisai. "Do you know anything about them?" Chiisai looked around and turned back to Inu. He had come to take a liking to the boy lately and wasn't taking to lightly to what Miyamoto was doing to the boy.
"Aye. I know a lot of your parents. Your mother is a beauty and your father is the strongest of half breeds I have ever seen."
"Are they really dead like Miyamoto said?" asked Inu. Chiisai let a sigh. He knew he'd be punished for what he was about to do, but he did it anyway.
"No, young Inu. They live. Would you like to see them?" asked the small demon.
"You can get in trouble for this." said Inu.
"Tis for the best of things. As long as you make no contact with them." Inu nodded in agreement quickly.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Inu came walking out his room wearing his old red kimono and he felt a bit strange putting it on. Certain things began to flood into his mind, as if he was remembering things. Chiisai came running up to the boy and looked him over before shaking his head and shoving him back into his room, forcing him to put his samurai uniform and then he handed him a mask (like Kohaku's). "We can't let them recognize you." He said. Inu scowled and his dog like ears flattened on his head.
"Why do I have to wear this stupid mask if we're going to be in a tree anyway?" he asked. Chiisai shook his head and ignored the boy's question before ordering him to follow him silently out the castle. They hadn't noticed someone was listening to them. Inu hopped through the treetops with Chiisai on his back, telling him where to go.
"Right there!" he informed. Inu looked at him in confusion.
"They live in the forest?" he asked.
"Aye young master, they live where ever they have to. They travel." Answered Chiisai. "I'm surprised they are so close o where we are hiding though." he said thoughtfully. Inu smirked.
"They sound like fun already." He said and stopped in a tree. He moved some branches and looked down at the group. Inuyasha was leaning against a tree near Kagome, Miroku at his side.
"There are your parents." Said Chiisai, using his staff to point Kagome and Inuyasha out. Inu leaned forward in the tree.
"You're right.. My mom is pretty." He said quietly. Chiisai nodded knowingly. Inu bit on his lower lip. "Can I touch her?" he asked curiously, looking at Chiisai with pleading eyes.
"I wouldn't think that wise." Said Chiisai quickly. Inu scowled.
"Let me just touch her cheek or something. I thought moms' like those things from their kids." He said. Before Chiisai could object again, Inu jumped silently out of the tree and walked over to where Kagome was sleeping. Just by looking at her, thoughts and images began popping in his mind. They were all different from what Miyamoto had told him.
"Lord Inu! Get up here now!" hissed Chiisai in his mind. Inu scowled and looked up in the tree.
"She's my mom, Chiisai!" he shouted back telepathically. "What if Miyamoto is lying and." he stopped and looked at Kagome before reaching forward to touch her face.
"Inu." he jumped and turned around. Sango was staring at him with wide eyes. "It's actually you." He looked around frantically, but Sango grabbed hold of him.
"Let go of me, wench!" Inu yelled. Inuyasha lifted his head and scowled. Then his jaw dropped. Inu growled in frustration. "CHIISAI! Help me!" he yelled.
"Inu." he stopped and looked at Kagome who was looking at him with tears in her eyes.
"Mama." Sango let him go and Kagome went over, taking the mask off of his face. Inu backed away a few steps. She threw her arms around him and pulled him close.
"Its actually you!" Inu looked at her and felt tears in his eyes. He began shaking and put his arms around her neck, burying his face into her shoulder.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Inuyasha stared at the boy in shock as he cried in Kagome's shirt. His clothes were completely different and it was obviously his time to transform. Kagome was crying extremely hard and looked as though she would never let the boy go. He watched silently. Miroku was rubbing his eyes. "Getting a bit soft on me, monk?" he asked. Miroku looked at him in shock.
"Don't fool yourself, Inuyasha." He said quickly. "Just had something in my eye at the moment." Inuyasha shook his head and suddenly, something caught his ear. He turned quickly just as something fell out the tree. "What is that? It looks dead." Inu lifted his head and looked at what they were talking about.
"Chiisai!" he yelled and ran over to the demon. Inuyasha came over and the boy fell to his knees crying over the dead demon.
"Why are you crying, boy? You'll be joining him soon enough." Inuyasha quickly grabbed Inu as demons came jumping out of the trees.
"They followed you here I see." Inuyasha growled. Miyamoto appeared and Inuyasha held Inu close to him. "Of course, the all mighty Miyamoto." he muttered.
"Inuyasha. you have my child and I'd like it if you gave him back."
"Your child?" Inuyasha snorted. "Last time I checked, he had my appearances." He informed. Miyamoto shook his head.
"Yes, but I didn't abandon the boy." Inuyasha looked at him in confusion and he looked at Inu, who was in his arm clutching at his kimono.
"What did you do to him?" Inuyasha asked.
"Just told him the truth about his parents." Answered Miyamoto calmly. Suddenly Inu began to whimper and clutched even tighter to Inuyasha's jacket.
"STOP IT!" the boy yelled and jumped out of Inuyasha's arms, throwing his hands over the ears at the top of his head. He dropped to his knees and groaned.
"Cut it out you bastard!" yelled Inuyasha and attacked him. Kagome went over and put her arms around Inu, but the boy pushed away
"LEAVE ME ALONE!" he yelled.
