Some Dreams Can Come True, Ya Know!
Chapter 32: The Reunion
xxOne Century Laterxx
Kagome walked over to the door near the edge of her kitchen and walked out onto a side porch. She leaned her arms over the railing of the porch and looked over the forest. Every few years, another section of forest would disappear to be used as land for more villages or even small towns. Kagome knew how much would eventually disappear, and it saddened her to see it disappear, but that didn't stop her from enjoying it while she could.
Kagome figured out a spell that would stop her family from dying, so she didn't have to worry about loosing them (Sota got married, and his wife and family includes Kagome's family). Every once in a while they would come visit, and since their mansion was so close the well, they didn't have to worry about getting attacked by anything more than a very weak demon that even Sota's four-year-old daughter could take care of.
She had been cooking all afternoon and it was time for dinner. She looked out at the forest in front of her, then yelled, "SUPPER IS READY!" She doubted that anyone would hear her, but soon she heard running footsteps. In front of her appeared Kia, Koinu, Kamina, Shami and three others.
"Ha! I won!" Kia announced happily to her mother as she ran past. Koinu and Shami stayed silent as they ran past her.
"Shut up Kia!" Kamina complained as she followed her brother and sisters.
"Kids, be nice." Kagome yelled after them.
"Yes ma'am." One of the three told her as they passed, Kagome staring at them the whole time. The first to pass her was about ten years younger than Kamina and Shami. Her name was Kera. She had long, flowing black hair that had silver tips. The tips amazed Kagome, because everytime she gave Kera a haircut and she cut the tips off, a few days later, the silver tips would be back. Kagome finally gave up. Another thing that amazed her was Kera's eyes. She had one brown eye, like Kagome's, and she had an amber eye, like Inuyasha's. She was sporting a raven black tail, along with a pair of fluffy white dog ears mounted at the top of her head. It seemed that she had been the one to inherit genes equally from both sides, and it was Kera that Kagome thought inherited her miko powers the most, even though her other children did as well.
The second to pass her was fifteen years younger than Kera, and his name was Yusuke. He had amber eyes and short, silver hair that could never be contained (okay, to put it another way, it was REALLY messy…) and a pair of black dog ears. He was one of her children that followed after his father. Inuyasha had shown him Tetsusaiga on many occasions, each time Yusuke able to lift the sword higher and higher up, and the most current time he had been shown it, Inuyasha actually allowed him to kill a demon. He also, like his siblings, inherited a small amount of miko powers from Kagome,
The third and last child of the three was five years younger than Yusuke, and his name was Kurama. He had black hair that had red streaks, and his hair came down passed his shoulders. He had crimson red eyes, which complemented his hair. He was sporting a pair of midnight black tails, and had a pair of black dog ears on top of his head. Strangely enough, Kagome's ancestor's looks somehow got handed down to him. He had taken a liking to sword fighting with his brothers and cousins, but he much preferred learning new miko spells and enhancing his spirit awareness with Kagome, Yusuke and his sisters.
Kagome followed the children into the kitchen, finding the kids groaning about something. "What's the matter this time?"
"What took you seven so long?" Kagome heard a voice say from the other side of her children.
"You seriously didn't think you could beat your father in a race back for food, did you?" Kagome asked her children, humor evident in her voice. They all looked huffed at her, but knew enough not to answer rudely. They all knew the consequences to that…
"Sit down and I'll bring over the food." Kagome said.
"Mom, what's for dinner?" Yusuke asked as he sat down next to his father.
"Ramen with fresh fish on the side." Kagome said, her children cheering very loudly along with their father. Kagome sighed and shook her head, then brought in a tray with four bowls, then brought in another five, divvying out a bowl to each person. Then she brought in another tray with nine plates of fish on it and then divvyed it out to each person, brought the trays back into the kitchen, then came and took her place on the other side of Inuyasha.
"All right, dig in." Kagome said, knowing that they couldn't wait to dig into the food. As soon as the word 'in' had been said, chopsticks and ramen broth started flying as the kids started to eat. Kagome and Inuyasha laughed as they watched, Yusuke and Kia having a race to see who could slurp up their ramen the fastest. In the end, Yusuke won, much to the displeasure of his sister.
"Hey, he cheated!" Kia complained.
"Uh, Kia, sweetie, how can you cheat when your eating?" Kagome asked, a giggle rising up to her throat.
"Uh…I don't know." Kia said, suddenly starting to giggle herself. Once they had all finished eating, Kagome turned to the kids.
"Okay, your turn to choose what we have for dessert. What do you guys want? And only decide on one thing, I'm not fixing five different dishes." Kagome said.
The kids didn't hesitate to yell out simultaneously, "CHOCOLATE!"
Inuyasha sighed. "Kagome, I'll go put up the valuable vases we have. We don't want the kids to knock any of them over while they're hyper."
"All right. Thanks Yasha." Kagome said, pecking him on the cheek. She got up, grabbing all of the empty plates and bowls with her powers, then she and the dishes left the room, the dishes floating over to the empty sink. Kagome pulled out seven candy bars from her backpack and brought them into the kitchen, where she handed each child a bar of the delicious delight. "Wait, don't eat them yet."
"But why not?" Kurama complained.
"Just a second. YASHA! YOU FINISHED?" Kagome yelled up.
"YEAH! GO AHEAD!" She heard Inuyasha reply.
"You heard your father. Eat!" Kagome said. They didn't need to be told twice. In less than a second, the paper that had been wrapped around the candy bar was thrown on the floor and chocolate was shoved in mouths.
"Oh no…" Kagome groaned as Kurama was the first to go crazy.
XxXxXxXxXxXx
In less than an hour after the kids had eaten the chocolate, the house was in chaos.
"Kia, quit pulling Koinu's hair! Kamina, stop digging in the fridge! Shami, stop jumping on the couch! Yusuke, stop shooting your miko gun (And NO, I DID NOT take this from Yu Yu Hakusho. The phrase 'miko gun' popped into my head when I was writing this and couldn't think of anything else to call it, so no one can say I'm stealing, cause I'm not! Oh, and Yusuke is a common Japanese name, so you can't say I'm stealing that either)! Kurama, please stop trying to get into your father's sword cases! You know they're locked tight! Kera, stop trying to shoot arrows with my good bows!" Kagome yelled. Even through all of the havoc and chaos, Kagome heard someone knock at the front door. "INUYASHA! WATCH THE KIDS! I GOTTA GET THE DOOR!"
"FINE!" Inuyasha yelled from his place in a comfortable chair. Kagome walked to the front door, opening it to reveal an old friend of hers.
"Koga! How nice to see you again! Please, come in. And, ignore any loud booms or anything like that you hear." Kagome said, pulling Koga inside and shutting the door behind him.
"Why?" Koga asked, then he heard a boom from the floor above. "Kagome, what did you do?"
"I gave the kids chocolate…" Kagome said, shaking her head and slapping herself as she heard another loud boom. "Koga, cover your ears for a moment please. KIDS! QUIET IT DOWN! YUSUKE, STOP SHOOTING YOUR MIKO GUN! UNCLE KOGA'S HERE, TRY NOT TO ACT LIKE YOUR INSANE!" The house instantly got a bit quieter.
"Wow. Looks like you've been working with them." Koga said with a grin.
"Huh, tell me about it. AND KERA! Don't you dare think that you're getting away with jumping on the couch!" Kagome yelled at the girl from at least five rooms away.
"Wow, you can hear her? I can't even do that, and I'm full demon." Koga said surprised.
"Well, it's kind of easy to tell when they're your own children…KAMINA! GET OUT OF THE FRIDGE! Sorry, she just won't stop. Inuyasha had to go through the house and put up all the vases we had so that we wouldn't have to go buy all new ones like we did last time." Kagome giggled.
"Oh, I remember when that happened. That was kinda funny. Now, the reason I came." Koga said.
"And that would be…?"
"We, as in Ayame, Kayame and I, have decided to have a reunion, and everyone's invited, your family from the future too. Are they even still alive?" Koga asked humorously.
"Yes Koga. Even though they're humans, they're still alive." Kagome said with a sigh. "Would you like to have some dessert or do you have to be leaving?"
"Well, I wish I could stay, but Ayame would kill me if I was late to dinner."
"Oh, that's a shame. When is the reunion going to be?" Kagome asked.
"In a week at our place, I guess. We'll work out the details later, but I have to get home. Ayame will kill me." Koga said, grinning. Kagome laughed.
"Okay, the kids will be glad to here about it. I'll tell them after the chocolate wears down." Kagome said.
"All right. I'll see you soon to give you details."
"Okay, looking forward to it." Kagome said, grinning. She led Koga to the door where he and Kagome gave each other a friendly hug when…
"KOGA! STAY THE HE77 AWAY FROM MY WIFE!" Inuyasha yelled humorously from his chair on the second floor. Kagome rolled her eyes and Koga laughed.
"I'd better get going. Bye Kagome!" Koga said, opening the door and taking off.
"Bye! See you soon!" Kagome yelled after him. Another boom came from two floors above right after she shut the door. It was going to be a long night…
XxXxXxXxXxXx
xxOne Week Laterxx
"Okay, is everything set?" Koga asked as he walked over to Ayame.
"Yes, everything's set. We're only missing one thing." Ayame said, biting her lip.
"And what's that?" Koga asked.
"The guests! Duh!" Ayame said, grinning.
"Hey Mom! Dad! When are the other's getting here?" A girl yelled from the other side of the house.
"In about ten minutes! Help me bring the food in Kayame!" Koga yelled.
" 'Kay!" They heard Kayame yell before she came running into the room. The girl was about sixty-five years old, even though that's not saying much. She had red hair, like her mother, but had her fathers sapphire eyes. Kayame grinned at the two, then they all walked out of the room towards the kitchen.
Ayame heard a knock at the front door, and she walked over to it and opened it to reveal Kagome, Inuyasha, Kia, Koinu, Shami, Kamina, Kera, Yusuke and Kurama.
"Oh, hey guys! Come on in! The party's just getting started! Kagome, did you bring your CD player?" Ayame asked.
"Yep! It's right here." Kagome said, handing over her boom box. "It already has batteries in it, so you don't have to worry about having to plug it in. Oh, and I brought some guests!" Kagome said excitedly, waving at someone who was outside the door. Anami, Kanami, Sota, his wife Hitomi, his four-year-old daughter Sitomi, and Kagome's grandpa walked in the door with big smiles on their faces.
"Oh, hello! Thank you for coming!" Ayame said, grinning. "Come in, come in! We're expecting a lot of others to show up. And yes, Inuyasha, you're entire family is coming. That includes Kimi too."
"Okay, good. I was starting to get worried about her, I haven't heard from for about fifty years, and-" Inuyasha said, and he was about to continue when there was another knock on the door. Inuyasha reached over and opened it, revealing Kimi along with someone that Inuyasha didn't know at all. He had red hair with black streaks that went to his shoulders, pointed ears and stunning purple eyes.
"Inuyasha! Kagome! How nice to see you!" Kimi said, running in and pulling both Inuyasha and Kagome into a hug.
"Hey Kimi! Uh…who's that?" Inuyasha asked, pointing to the guy who was still standing uneasily at the door.
"Oh, I'm sorry Lloyd! Come here!" Kimi said, pulling the boy over. "Guys, this is Lloyd. Lloyd, this is my brother Inuyasha, and his wife Kagome."
"Nice to meet you." Inuyasha said, holding out his hand for Lloyd to take. He hesitantly took it. Inuyasha could tell he was nervous, but for what reason he didn't know. He didn't care that his sister had found someone to care about, just as long as the guy didn't hurt her…
"It's a pleasure to meet you." Kagome said. At hearing Kagome's calm and melodic voice, Lloyd seemed to visibly calm down. He walked over to Kagome and took her hand, brushing his lips over the back of it.
"The pleasure is all mine, ma'am." Lloyd said, gently setting her hand back down. Before anything else could happen, another knock was at the door. Ayame opened it to find Izayoi and Inu Taisho standing in the door.
"Hello. Please come in." Ayame said, bowing to the two.
"There is no need for formal tonight. We're here to party, and that's all we're here for, not to be treated like royalty. Come on, break out the music! Let's dance!" Inu Taisho said, grinning. Kagome, Inuyasha and Kimi laughed.
"We also have a surprise for you, Kimi and Sesshomaru Inuyasha." Izayoi said.
"And what's that mother?" Inuyasha asked.
"Meet out new addition to the family, you're littlest sister Recka (pronounced 'Wrecka')." Izayoi said, stepping into the door to reveal a child in her arms. The girl was around seven years old, and was looking around, surveying every inch of the room. The girl had black hair with silver streaks, and had amber eyes, along with a pair of silver dog ears mounted on top of her head with a pair of tails.
"Oh Mother…is this why we haven't seen you for a long time?" Kimi asked.
"Yes, it is." Inu Taisho said.
"Mom…who are they?" Recka asked, pointing to Inuyasha, Kimi and Kagome.
"First, that is one you're older brothers Inuyasha and you're older sister Kimi. That is Kagome, Inuyasha's wife." Inu Taisho explained to the little girl.
"Aunt Kagome! Uncle Inuyasha!" Kagome and Inuyasha turned around to see Kayame running towards them.
"Oh, hey! And how are my little one's doing?" Kagome asked.
"Real great!" Kayame said, hugging Kagome and Inuyasha's legs. There was another knock at the door, Kayame breaking off of the two and running for the door before her mother could make her way towards it. Kayame opened it to reveal Sesshomaru and Kiala, along with their five children, Siala, Kiomaru, Yukimura, Kyoshiro and Sakuya.
Yukimura was dressed just like his father. He looked exactly like him, just a little chibi version, but the stripes on his face were red instead of purple.
Kyoshiro had blue eyes, like his mother, but had black streaks mixed in with his short, silver hair. His crescent moon was red, and his stripes were purple.
Sakuya looked just like a chibi version of her mother, except her stripes and crescent moon were purple.
"Mother! Father! It's so good to see you!" Sesshomaru said, bowing in their direction.
"Hello Sesshomaru, Kiala. What a pleasure to see you again!" Inu Taisho said.
"And who is this little one?" Kiala said, walking over and kneeling down next to Recka.
"Oh, Sesshomaru, meet your youngest sister Recka. She's seven years old." Izayoi said.
"Mom…" Recka said, sounding nervous.
"It's okay Recka. That is you're older brother's wife. There's no need to be afraid. Sesshomaru! Come say hello to you're little sister!" Izayoi said. Sesshomaru came over, kneeling on the ground next to Recka.
"Big…big brother? Is that you?" Recka asked.
"Yes, Recka. It's me." Sesshomaru said, pulling the little girl into his arms.
"Hey guys!" Kiomaru said, waving at Inuyasha's kids, Kayame and Sitomi.
"Hi!" The kids yelled, all running over to Sesshomaru's kids. There was another knock at the door, and Kayame just opened the door again to reveal Sango and Miroku and their kids.
"Sango! Miroku! It's so good to see all of you!" Kagome said. They all walked in with their three new additions to their family.
The first of which was Hiko. He had his father's violet eyes but his mother's deep brown hair. He was around fifteen years old.
The second was Arlic. He looked just like a little chibi version of his father, like Yukimura and Sesshomaru. He was around ten years old.
The third and last of which was Rema. She had taken all traits from her mother, and was a chibi version of her. She was about nine.
"Hey guys!" The kids yelled happily.
"Yo!" Sango and Miroku's kids yelled, and they all ran over to join the others.
"Here kids, have fun until Uncle Shippo and Aunt Soten get here." Kagome said, tossing the kids a deck of cards.
"Thanks mom!" Kurama said, and they all walked off to go play a game of 'Go Fish'.
About ten minutes later, there was another knock on the door, and Koga walked over to answer it. The door opened to reveal Shippo and Soten, along with three children.
"Hey Shippo!" Kagome cried happily, running over and hugging the kitsune.
"Hey Kagome! We've got some surprises for you!" Soten said.
"Oh? And what's that?" Kagome asked.
"These are our three kids, each about a year apart. Here is Maya," Shippo said, motioning to the one in his arms. She had Shippo's eyes but Soten's hair. She looked the youngest out of the children.
"This is Sakura," Soten said, motioning to the one in her arms. She seemed to have inherited both the eye and hair color of Soten, but had Shippo's face.
"And my name is Saske (pronounced Sause-kay)!" A boy said, running out from behind Shippo. He had Shippo's hair, along with his eyes. All three kids had pointy ears like their parents. Saske had Shippo's tail, along with Sakura, but Maya didn't have a tail.
"Oh, aren't you cute?" Inuyasha asked, pulling Saske up into his arms.
"Okay, now it's time for the party to start!" Ayame yelled. Koga ran over and cranked up the music, the kids running over and getting onto the dance floor, dancing to two of their favorite songs. One was the 'Macarena', which Kagome put on her CD mix, along with 'The Chicken Dance', which Kagome also put on the CD, and she had taught the kids how to do both of the dances.
After the song was over, Kia decided to take a break from the songs as a few songs she didn't know came on. She walked over to the buffet and grabbed a sandwich, chomping it down. She looked beside her, her eyes focusing on the person standing there. He had black hair that went to his waist that was up in a high ponytail and brilliant sapphire eyes. He was also sporting a pair of brown wolf ears and a tail.
"Hello." The man said.
"Hi."
XxXxXxXxXxXx
Koga was watching the kids dance, laughing as he saw Kayame almost trip on her own feet. Someone tapped on his arm, and he turned to see that it was Kia.
"Hey Uncle Koga? Do you have a moment?" Kia asked.
"Yeah. What do you need?" Koga asked.
"Harikuma told me to tell you hi." Kia said.
"Who in the world is tha…wait, no, it's not possible…"
"What's wrong?"
"Are you sure his name was Harikuma?"
"Yes. He said so."
"It…it couldn't be…it couldn't be my…" Koga said, muttering the last word.
"I guess it could be. He looked just like you." Kia said, understanding his mumbled word.
"It can't be…my father…he's dead…it couldn't be him…"
