Ok chapter 2! I had help writing this chapter with my friend Areku since she made up Kameko, Yoko and Makoto.

Hope you like! Here's the chap!

This one is also in Shippou's POV.

Oh ya I don't own Inu Yasha and as much as I'd like to own Shippou I don't so there u go on with the fic already.

Chapter 02 - Distinct Lives

Well, I'm on my way to the Higurashi's where Inu Yasha, Kagome and their only daughter Kameko live. As I neared the edge of the forest I felt the sun's rays become even stronger, the rocky path of which I walk on warmed beneath my bare furry feet.

For a quarter demon Kameko is rather strong and regularly picks fights with the bigger and older kids usually to prove a point or to show her power.

The other two children Yoko and Makoto even though they are humans they have some unique abilities let's just say Makoto gets his techniques from his mother and Yoko from her father, like I said earlier. I neared the house I sensed movement inside.

The door to their hut swung open as Inu Yasha ambled out clasping his arms tightly around a kicking and screaming quarter demon named Kameko.

"Kameko stop struggling!" Inu Yasha shouted. His daughter's stubborn ways were extremely irritating.

"No! No bath!" Kameko shouted. "let me go daddy!"

"Kameko quiet down you're gonna wake the neighbours" Kagome hissed walking out behind Inu Yasha holding a bucket full of soaps and scrubbers.

"Put a sock in it!"

"Too late" Sighed Kagome while her daughter sank her teeth into her dad's arm.

"Kameko cut it out! It's only a bath!" Inu Yasha retorted. "Stop acting like a four year old!"

"No!" Kameko yelled back kicking her father's arm away and falling to the ground. "Ha! Escaped run for it!" She cheered running away and zooming up a tree.

"Kameko get down here!" Inu Yasha shouted. Kameko stuck her tongue out.

"No"

Inu yasha growled irritatedly in his throat.

"Kagome fill the bucket up"

"It is" Kagome replied placing a pail beside the tub.

"Ok," He answer seizing the tree around the trunk.

"Hey, What are you doing!" Kameko yelled as the tree shook and was pulled out of the ground.

"Yipe!" She shrieked hugging around the tree so she wouldn't fall off.

"Rub a dub dub cameo's in the tub" Inu Yasha teased shaking the tree over the tub and watched as his daughter plummeted into the water.

"No fair!"

"Pipe down!"

"Hey I'm still wearing my clothes"

"Oh well, that way I don't have to look at your naked rear"

Kagome giggled pulling the top of Kameko's haori off and started to scrub her skin. I laughed at Kameko's expression . "What's wrong Kameko? Your favourite tree just get skewed?"

"Hey! As a matter of fact yes! Damn daddy"

"Kameko no swearing!" Kagome ordered.

"but daddy swears"

Kagome shot Inu Yasha a glare.

"I'm gonna get the shampoo" Inu Yasha said starting to walk away so he wouldn't get hurt.

"Oh no you don't" Kagome hissed, grabbing Inu yasha's arm. "What did I say about swearing in front of Kameko!"

"Damn isn't that bad fuck is worse" Kameko said."Daddy what does fuck mean?"

"Now look what you did" Kagome screamed. I stepped back watching the whole show.Was this what it was like having a family?

"SIT!" THUD

"Ouch"

"Haha!" Kameko laughed pointing at her father. "So did she give you any trouble this morning?" I asked out of curiosity.

Kagome answered."Oh yes... we tried sneaking up on her while she was sleeping but the little bugger slept in the closet and put a decoy in her bed"

"What was the decoy?" I questioned, trying to get more detail.

"A sack of potatoes."

" I can see how that would trick Inu Yasha"

"Hey, I'm not that stupid Shippou!" Inu Yasha yelled into the ground.

"Yeah, you just reek of intelligence" I teased.

"That's it I'm gonna kill you Shippou!" Inu Yasha jumped to his feet starting to chase Shippou around the yard.

"Run Shippou run!" Kameko called as Kagome rinsed her hair.

"Hey What about me?" Inu Yasha asked.

"No, you don't get any praise, you killed my tree remember"

"Keh, It's not like I'm the reason you're alive" Inu Yasha growled.

"Shippou rocks! Daddy sucks!" Teased Kameko"

"You Just wait Kameko I'll get you back for that."

1 Hour later...

"Hi Mrs. Higurashi, can Kameko come out to play?" beamed a six year old child at the door, it was none other then Yoko herself.

Kagome smiled kindly in return.

"Yes she may, just be back before dinner okay?"

"Of course" Yoko bowed.

"So cute" Kagome chortled, heading back in the hut to retrieve Kameko who was probably trying to pull a prank on her father in some way.

"Kameko! Yoko's at the door!" Kagome called walking down the hall when she heard a hushing sound coming from a closet.

"Quiet mommy I'm waiting for daddy to walk by so I can splash him with this bucket full of glue and water" Whispered Kameko.

Kagome giggled. "Inu Yasha! Could you come here!"

"Why?" he called back.

"I made ramen!"

"Whoo! Coming!"

Suddenly Inu Yasha appeared chasing his way forward along the corridor where Kagome shouted with a large smile.

He was almost to her when the closet swung open and large crash of water splashing flesh and wood was heard.. Then the hysteric sound of laughing was heard through the house.

"Ha Ha! Target's hit!" Kameko pointed contentedly at him. "well Yoko's here bye daddy" Kameko replied hastily kissing him on the cheek and running out the door.

"Bye Mom"

"What took you so long?" Yoko asked.

"Taking cared of busyness"

"Geez it's gonna take forever to get all this glue off better start scrubbing Inu Yasha" Kagome giggled holding a sponge in her hand.

"..So that's what happened anyway" I had explained to Makoto about me meeting Satsuki years ago the only girl who I ever had actually fallen in love with.

"Whoa and after all of that you had to leave?" Makoto asked.

"Yeah, but at least she knows the truth now. So why'd you wanna know anyway?"

"Ugh...well I.." Makoto stuttered.

"Hey guys!" Yoko yelled to us.

"Hey Yoko, Kameko What's up?" I asked them.

"Not much. Say you wanna go play in that big mud hole?" Kameko slyly asked the boy.

I raised an eyebrow. "Didn't you just have a bath missy?"

"Well.. Yes but so! You wanna come with us Makoto?"

"Ughhh.. I don't think that's such a good idea..." Makoto drew back knowing it was something against their parents wishes.

Kameko then replied. "Oh, you're no fun ya fag. What about you Shippou?"

I gave a small chuckle and replied. "You know what I'd love to but I think I should be heading home right around now"

"Awww ok..." Kameko sighed. "I guess it's just me and Yoko" They turned and grabbed Makoto by the back of the collar pulling him along.

"Hey!"

I gave another chuckle, picked up my things and started heading home.

Where I live is not too far from Inu yasha and Kagome's house. It's pretty big for one person but I hope to change that, but for now it's mine and mine alone. I kept on the path which I travelled daily to and from the village and/or the Higurashi's or Sango's and Miroku's. As I neared the things reconised to me on the path to my place, I went through my mind of the things that I had to do today, like visiting my parents, cleaning (yuck) and drawing. It's still early so I think I'll draw a little first before I visit.

To others it may seem rather childish but I still colour with crayons. Though whatever the medium, I still love expressing my thought's through my drawings. Though it would make sense to look at something and draw it, I use my own thoughts and memories.

I approached my own dwelling which my friends help me build. They decided I needed to become more independent and be on my own for once. In other words they kicked me out.

Once inside I threw my things on the floor and plotted myself at a small desk holding my drawing utensils and started to continue my previous art piece.

Though I do not remember much of my past through my drawings i try to recreate the images it gives me.

And I cannot remember what life was like through photographs, and trying to recreate images life gives us from our past

The images I create may bring me tears and my life is a sad song but I will sing it through my heart and let it somehow bring my joy.

sometimes its a sad song ohh..

I hope you like it so far! If i get some more reviews I'll write another chapter.
