DISCLAMER: I do not own "Yu Yu Hakusho," the movie called "The Parent Trap" or "South Park" or anything else I may mention in this fic. I do however, own a couple original characters. These original characters are NOT reincarnated versions of me, and they are also NOT Mary-Sue fangirls who chase Kurama and Hiei around. Have I made myself clear? Good.

A/N: I'm back! I'm glad you all like the story so far--I wasn't sure if that many people would like it. After this chapter, I most likely will not be updating for the next couple weeks due to the Olympics. Every four years when the Olympics are on, my eyes are glued to the TV when Swimming and Gymnastics events are on. I am a swimmer, and so I like to watch these things. So, my lack of updates over the next couple weeks will be because I'm watching the Olympics, not because of laziness.

"Are We Related?"

Chapter 2: Can I Go?

RING-RING-RING-RING-RING! The annoying sound of the alarm clock woke Ayame at exactly 6:00am. "I hate alarm clocks." Ayame said as she was rubbing the sleep out of her eyes. This was her morning routine on school days: get out of bed, brush teeth, take a shower, get dressed, fix hair, put on make-up, and eat. It was a bright and sunny spring morning and the weatherman said the temperature was supposed to slightly rise. 'I'm so happy it's Friday.' thought Ayame.

After lying there for fifteen minutes, Ayame finally got out of bed. She went to the bathroom that was connected to her room and started her morning routine. After she got out of the shower, she dried off and wrapped her towel around her naked body and went to her walk-in closet to find something to wear. After about five minutes, she decided to wear a pink tube-top that said "Bitch" in black letters across the chest, along with some low-rise jeans and some black stiletto heals. (A/N: I'm so jealous of Ayame! She has her own bathroom, and her walk-in closet is bigger than my own bedroom! This is so unfair!)

After getting dressed, she went over to her vanity and sat down in front of the mirror. She combed out her elbow-length brown hair and put it up into a messy-bun, and then applied a small amount of make-up. After getting up and looking in her big mirror, she was satisfied. "Cute!" It was about 7:00am when she thought she better get something to eat. She grabbed her purse and her school bag and headed down to the dining room to eat some breakfast. She entered the dining room and saw her father smoking a cigarette. She sat next to him and waited for the maid to bring out breakfast.

This was it...she wanted to ask Sakyo about going on this exchange student trip, and she was nervous. 'He's gonna say no. I just know he's going to--' Her thoughts were suddenly interrupted as Sakyo said something to her. "What do you want to ask me this time?"

Ayame was startled at what her father just said. "How do you know I want to ask you something?"

Sakyo just looked at her and replied, "Because every time you want something and you think the answer may be 'no', you behave the same way you just did."

"Okay fine, I do want to ask you something. Hold on a second..." Ayame started digging into her school bag so she could find the flyer advertising the exchange student program. She found it after a few seconds and handed it to Sakyo. "Just read it."

Sakyo looked over the flyer, but he didn't say 'yes' or 'no'. "I'll think about it."

Suddenly, Ayame jumped out of her seat and wrapped her arms around her father. "THANKYOUTHANKYOUTHANKYOU!"

"I didn't say 'yes', I just said I would think about it."

Ayame let go of him and sat back in her seat. "Yeah, but when you just say 'I'll think about it', it's almost close to a 'yes' answer, right?"

"I guess." The maid named, Violet had finally brought in breakfast. Ayame was clearly ready to eat. "Thanks, Violet. Looks good!" Then she dug in. She consumed everything on her plate within five minutes, and then she realized it was time to go to school. "I gotta go now if I want to get a good parking spot at school. Dad, please just think about this exchange student program. I really want to go!" He gave her the 'stop bugging me' look and she immediately got quiet. She got out of her chair and kissed Sakyo on the cheek and picked up her things and left. She went out to her silver BMW convertible that her father got gotten her for her 16th birthday. She got in, started the engine, and was off to school.

"Shina, get out of bed. Right now!" This is another thing Shizuru goes through a lot with Shina. She was not a morning person, so getting her out of bed was a difficult task.

"Fine...I'm getting up." She was just like a typical teenager: she valued her sleep.

Shizuru left Shina's bedroom and went downstairs to make some breakfast. Shina took her shower and got dressed in a pair of jean shorts and a black halter top and some flip-flop sandals. She combed her hair and decided to leave it down, and then put on some make-up. She grabbed her things and made her way down stairs to be greeted by the smell of pancakes. She sat at her usual spot at the table and started eating. She started to think about asking her mother about the exchange student program...she would actually have to ask soon because the deadline was drawing near. 'Well, here it goes.' She looked at Shizuru, then proceeded to ask the question.

"Mom, I want to ask you something. But before you say 'no', please just give it some thought." she was nervous.

By the way she was talking, Shizuru knew her daughter wanted something big. "What?"

"Well, there's this exchange student program happening this summer and I'd really like to go," before continuing, Shina pulled out the flyer and handed it to Shizuru. "Here's the flyer for you to read. It has a lot of information about the program. Could you please just think about it while I'm at school?"

Shizuru was busy looking over the piece of paper her daughter had just given to her. "You're right, Shina, I really am going to have to think about this."

"Thanks mom...I love you so much! Well, I need to get to school. Class starts in fifteen minutes! Bye!" Shina gave her mother a kiss on the cheek and walked out the door to her car and was on her way to school.

It was 10:00 on Friday night and Ayame was still working on some homework, but she decided to put it away for the night because one of her favorite TV shows was coming on: "South Park." She turned on the TV in her room and put it on the right channel and saw that the show hadn't quite started yet.

While she was waiting for "South Park" to start, she started thinking to herself about what Sakyo would say about this trip she wanted to go on in the summer. 'I asked him earlier this morning and he hasn't given me an answer yet. I hope he tells me soon...I have to know by next week.' Her thoughts were interrupted as her TV show started.

She started watching her show when she got into a huge laughing fit. One of the characters had said something extremely disgusting and naughtily when her fit of laughter had started. She had been like this since the show started fifteen minutes ago, and she didn't even notice Sakyo when he walked into her room.

He saw what she was watching and recalled seeing her watch this show many times. He saw his daughter rolling around on her bed as she was laughing really-really hard. She was laughing so hard that he looked at her and thought she was going to make herself sick. He had come in for a reason: to tell her his answer to her question. He wanted to tell her now, so he went over and turned off the TV. Ayame noticed and she was a little disappointed because "South Park" was one of her favorite shows, but simply brushed it off because she had an idea of what her father wanted to talk to her about.

Ayame sat down on her bed and Sakyo sat next to her. "So, have you decided yet? Is it 'yes' or 'no?'"

"Believe it or not, I thought about this all day. I will let you go."

Upon hearing this, Ayame got really excited and immediately threw her arms around Sakyo's neck in a big hug. "OMG! THANK YOU SO MUCH! YOU HAVE NO IDEA HOW EXCITED I AM!" She almost couldn't find the right words to say because she was so overly excited.

Shina was glad it was the weekend. She only had a small amount of homework for the weekend, and so this meant she had more time to play around. When she got home, she saw that her mother hadn't come home from work yet, but evidentially she had come home during lunch because Shina had seen a note her mother left. The note pretty much said to take out the garbage when she got home from school. Shina didn't really want to, but she did it to get it over-with.

'I really hope mom thought about this trip...' That was almost the only thing Shina could think about all day. She wanted to go on this trip so badly that she'd almost do anything to get Shizuru to say 'yes.' 'Guess I better start my homework.'

After about an hour had passed since Shina came home from school, Shizuru came home. She thought about what her daughter had asked her earlier and decided on an answer.

"Hey mom! Well..."

Shizuru sat down at the table next to Shina. "Yes, I did think about it; and I have an answer." She took a deep breath and continued. "Shina, I thought about this all day, and I think it would be a good experience for you. So, my answer is 'yes', I'm letting you go."

Shina got out of her seat right away and gave her mother huge hug. "Thank you mom! I love you soooo much!

DUN! DUN! DUN! What do ya think is gonna happen in this story? I think I made this story a little too predictable, don't you think? Again, sorry for the OOCness. This is so weird writing about Sakyo having a daughter...I know I said this last time, but I'm saying it again. Don't you guy's think it's weird? PLEASE R&R:)
