Chapter 2
With her new strength, Kagome found it quite easy to exit the well for once. Fortunately she found her grandfather and brother were not home. That made it easier to talk to her mom without them finding out.
She found her mother in the kitchen. "Um….Mom?"
"Oh! Welcome back Kagome!" And with that, she turned around. And froze.
"What? Didn't expect this? You DO know what the problem is, don't you?"
"O…Of course… But we never thought this would happen…"
"We?"
"Go get dressed and I'll explain."
Kagome was fortunate enough to find some clothing that stretched to fit her form.
She came back down to find that her mother had retrieved a letter from somewhere. But she didn't care about that right now. She sat down and waited.
"It's a long story… It starts back when I was 16. In high school I met a transfer student from somewhere… I never really bothered to find out where. He was very kind, and smart. And…handsome… We became close very quickly… It wasn't until we had married, and you were born that problems arose…"
Several years ago…
Naoko walked back to the shrine, her newborn baby girl in her arms, her husband by her side.
A voice spoke from behind. "I finally found you!"
And her husband dodged to the side just in time to avoid getting hit by three silver throwing knives.
Naoko hit the ground and backed away, still cradling her baby. "Who are you?!"
The man, about six feet tall, was dressed up like a ninja, and had several shiny silver blades on him. "My name is Joseph Prime. I am a werehunter. And I've been after your husband for years."
"A werehunter..?" She glanced at her husband just in time to see him shift into hybrid form.
"Do whatever you want to me, but leave my family out of this!"
"Oh, don't worry. I do not hunt humans, or half-weres. Half-weres rarely become full lycanthropes, so we don't worry about it unless it happens. As for you…" Joe whipped out more throwing knives and threw them. His opponent dodged, and charged. FAST! He's gotten better… I'll need more weapons than this… And so, Joe jumped back. "Thanks for the entertainment. I had a feeling I'd need more than what I have to beat you. I'll be back to finish the job…Someday…"
Naoko carefully approached her husband. "Wha…What…?"
"You heard him. I'm a lycanthrope. A werecheetah. I'd been dealing with him for YEARS before we met… I'm sorry I never told you. I'd hoped if I didn't tell anyone he wouldn't find me…"
Naoko leaned up against her husband. "You're forgiven."
"You know… I've finally thought of a name for our daughter."
"And?"
"We'll name her Kagome."
3 years later…
3 year old Kagome was playing with her father on the steps of the shrine when Naoko walked over and called them in for dinner. Kagome turned and immediately began climbing up the stairs to eat, while her father stayed to think about some things. It's been three years… I wonder why that bastard Joseph hasn't made a move yet? He got up to follow his daughter when a gunshot rang out. The bullet ripped through his shoulder, leaving him severely burned.
Naoko had looked outside upon hearing the shot and saw her husband go down. She ran out and quickly dragged Kagome inside as she saw Joseph Prime climb the steps.
Her husband was in no condition to fight. He didn't have a chance as Joseph fired several silver bullets into his chest and head. Ending it quickly. And then, he left…
In the present…
Naoko had tears in her eyes at this point. "A while after that, I met someone else and had Sota. But as you know, he didn't stick around long."
Kagome could hardly believe it herself, having no memory of it. But she had been so young at the time…
"I had a small information network keeping tabs on Joseph Prime. About three years ago, he was killed by his son, Xero.
"His own son killed him?"
"Yes. Apparently Joseph had killed one of his son's friends for "polluting" Xero's mind, making him believe that most lycanthropes are nice people. This is true, but most werehunters don't believe it. From what I know, Xero is an excellent fighter and a Rogue Mage. He hunts only lycanthropes that are posing some sort of threat to humans, and will never hunt any that he has no proof are a threat."
"I wouldn't mind meeting him."
Outside, on a utility pole, a figure clad in a black jumpsuit and black cloak observed from afar. Using magic to listen in on the conversation. "Sooner than you may think. My father committed terrible injustices to your family. I'll do whatever I can to make up for it."
Back inside, Naoko handed the letter to her daughter. "What's this?"
"After the first encounter we had with Joseph, your father wrote this for me to give you if he died, and your lycanthrope blood was somehow awakened. It's for your eyes only. I have never read it."
Kagome took the letter and went up to her room to read it.
'to my dear daughter. If you're reading this, then Joseph has gotten the better of me. I'm sure you're confused about yourself without me around to help you with this change, but such is life… Please don't be afraid of this side of you. Don't bury it away never to be accessed again. Embrace this gift. Use it. But don't use it for evil. Kagome, I am very sorry I can't be there for you. Enclosed below is detailed information about how to change forms at will. Practice this whenever you have time. Until you master it, you will only be able to change forms once every 24 hours. Kagome, I wish I could be there for you, but sometimes we don't get what we want."

Next chapter: Naraku arrives in modern Tokyo! Kagome meets Xero! What will happen? Sorry! I ain't tellin' ya! You'll just have to read the next chapter!! MWAHAHAHA!!!!
Authors notes: I don't know if Kagome's mother was ever given a name. If so, please let me know so I can fix the problem.
