Part 3 1/2: The Present, after the truth…
Dreams came to Kata of fighting, blood shed, and demons that night. Why? She herself didn't know. When she finally woke up sunlight filled her room, and she could hear her mother fighting with her father, Makoto who just came home earlier that morning from an business trip. Another strange thing about Kata was that she had super hearing abilities, but right now she could barely make out her parents words.
"Today's my 15th Birthday!" she said feeling lit up, "Grandpa's coming today!"
Quickly, she got into the bath, washed up, and got dressed in an new outfit of hers. Once done, she ran into the kitchen were her parents were still bickering over something. When she got there, thought, they stopped and looked at her.
"Happy Birthday, sweety!" her mother said, rushing over and hugging her, then her father did the same.
"Thanks, so when is Grandpa coming?"
"He should be here soon," her mother said, and then there was knocking at the front door. "I'll get that,"
Kaiya said, and then walking out of the kitchen, swiftly.
"Kata, please don't kill us today," her father said worried.
"Why would I?" she asked very puzzled.
Kata gave her father the 'ok' look, and walked out if the kitchen and into the living room. There she saw three other men, and one was her grandfather. When ceased to amaze Kata about her Grandfather was that he never seemed to age, still looking like he was twenty, but had this white hair that he always wore under an hat. The two other men she didn't recognize. One of them had white hair, like her grandfathers, and looked a lot like her grandfather. From what she remembered her mother never had any siblings, but still it was weird that he looked like her grandfather. The other guy had raspy red hair, wore an long trench coat, and looked about her age.
"Kata, come here" her mother said, and Kata did as she was told.
"Look at you! How old are you?" her grandpa said in shock.
"15, today," she replied.
"Really? I've been gone 10 years? Feh" he said.
" So, Kaiya didn't know you had an daughter," the other white haired man said.
"Father never told you?" her mother asked, "Sorry Kata, let me introduce these two," referring to the white haired man and the red haired, "This is my younger brother, your uncle Ryu, and this is Shippo an old friend."
"Hi, nice to see you all" Kata said.
"Why Don't we go s….. I mean have an seat in the den, were we can talk," Kaiya said, leading the guest into the den.
"Makoto, nice to see you again," Inuyasha said when he saw Kata's father.
"Nice to see you too, Inuyasha," her father said sitting in his favorite chair, "Ryu, Shippo nice to you too"
"Kaiya, your mother's last request was completed" Inuyasha told his daughter.
"All of it?" her mother said in shock.
"Every last piece with the help pf Ryu and Shippo, of course"
Kata had no idea when they were talking about, and was barely paying attention to their conversation. What she was doing was examining the uncle she just found out about and the other guy Shippo. Ryu was probley in his early 30's, but like his father and her mother he looked like he was in 20's, but had pure white hair much like his fathers which didn't make that much sense since he was so young. His hair wasn't under an hat like her grandfathers, and dressed modernly. The other guy ,Shippo,
was probley in his late teens, and was wearing an trench coat with he had refused to take off. he seemed to be shy and jittery.
"Kata, you look so much like your grandmother," Inuyasha said.
"Scary how much she looks like mother," Ryu said.
"She does……..," Shippo said nervously.
"You know my grandma?" Kata asked Shippo.
"Umm…..yes since I was young….er" he said nervously once again.
" Sorry about that Shippo gets nervous arounf people," Ryu said.
"Ok, I'll remember that for future references," Kata told her uncle.
"Kata, do you know what an Henyou is?" Ryu asked.
"Yeah, ½ demon ½ human, my mother told me lots of stories about them when I was younger,"
"There just stories to you?"
"Yup, but in school I had an whole unit on Demons last year"
"Well, what if all that was real?" Inuyasha asked his granddaughter.
"Can it be proven?"
"Yes"
"Dad…….." her mother said in an voice when she's cautious of something.
"What if I told you that I was an Henyou, your mother and uncle are part demon, and that Shippo's an demon?" her grandfather asked.
" I would say, 'What have you been drinking?'" Kata answered back.
"That can be proven." Inuyasha said, holdig his hand to his hat.
"Dad………" Kaiya said.
"It's her 15th birthday, just as you said she will know the truth about her heritage," Inyuasha told Kaiya.
"What?!" Kata exclaimed, questionly.
"Kata I'm an Henyou, for real," Inuyahsa continued," Those stories your mother told you were real, they were your grandma's and my stories"
"Wait," Kata said still shocked, "Them that would mean that I'm part demon?!"
"Yup," Inuyasha said touching his hat again, but this time taking it off. Long white hair feel out, revealing dog-like ears, "See?"
"Yeah," she said staring at the ears.
~*A/N: This isn't the end of Part 3, and this is probley the longest Part of my story. More to come soon!!! Isn't it an bit scary, imagining Inuyasha as an father? An Grandfather?
