DISCLAMER: I do not own "Yu Yu Hakusho" the movie called "The Parent Trap" 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: Here I am again! It's gonna get good soon; at least I hope you think it's getting good. Enjoy! The name of this chapter sounds kinda lame…sorry about that. I couldn't think of anything else.
NOTE: I don't know how to convert American money to Japanese money, so every time an amount of money is mentioned, it will be in American money.
"Are We Related?"
Chapter 15: Day Number 2
"Hmm, what should I do today?" Shina said to herself. Today was her second day at her father's house, and she thought things were going okay so far; except she hated those guys her father hung around with.
She had been wanting to tell Sakyo the truth about her identity, but decided to wait a little longer. In the meantime, she thought it would be fun to look through her sister's closet again.
"This skirt is cute! I wonder if she'll notice if it's missing….nah, I would never steal like that." Then she saw a dress that still had the price tag attached to it, and her eyes were the size of dinner plates as soon as she looked at what the price tag said. "OMG! This dress is $5000!" Shina did not know what to think. "Mom would never let me spend that much on a dress!"
She then came across some shoes that still had the price tag on the box, but she didn't even bother to look at it. "Oh well, that's enough looking at price tags. I think I'll watch a movie."
Shina walked out of the closet, and went over to where Ayame kept all her DVD's. She looked through, and spotted none other than "Napoleon Dynamite!"
"Yes! I'm watching this!" She quickly realized that this would be the third time within a week she has watched this movie, but she didn't care. "Hmm, maybe I should try and make dad watch it with me…"
She walked out of her sister's bedroom with the DVD in hand and started walking in the direction of the stairs. She had no idea where Sakyo would be, and she didn't want to risk getting lost in this beyond enormous house. Ayame did her best to draw a map, but Shina still didn't feel like hunting her father down. So, she decided to locate him a different way rather than look through every room:
"DADDY!" She screamed at the top of her lungs.
'There, that ought to grab his or someone's attention!' Shina thought.
And it did. Within a few seconds, Sakyo walked out of a room that was 2 doors away from where Shina was. Shina looked at her father, a little embarrassed by what she had done. "Oops, sorry…I didn't know you were that close." Shina immediately changed the subject. "Do you want to watch a movie with me?"
"Depends on what it is."
Shina then held up the DVD case. Sakyo didn't look too thrilled with his daughter's choice.
"No, absolutely not. I hate that movie!" Sakyo was about to walk back into the room he was in, when Shina stopped him.
"Why? It's funny! Haven't you even seen it before?"
"Yes. You made me watch it with you right after you bought it, and I almost fell asleep through it."
Then Shina did something her father could not say 'no' to…she gave the puppy dog look.
'Please not that look.' Sakyo thought to himself.
Since Shina wouldn't stop, he finally gave in. "Fine, get the movie ready and I will be in the theater room in a minute."
Shina's eye's lit up. "Okay!" She said cheerfully like a child would.
'Wow! Ayame's got him wrapped around her finger!'
Ayame was having plenty of fun being around her mother, but had a difficult time keeping her little secret. She got to meet her Uncle Kazuma, and the others. They all came over and ask her about her trip. She enjoyed the company of the others. Keiko and Yusuke's little girl was thrilled to see 'Shina.'
AT KAZUMA KUWABARA'S HOUSE
"Hey Urameshi, is it just me, or does something about Shina seem a little different?"
"I think it might be just you. I didn't think she was any different at all."
"That's weird, because I swear something was a little off about her….."
BACK TO SHINA'S AND SHIZURU'S HOUSE
"Mom, can we have pizza for dinner? I'm really hungry!"
"Sure, that sounds kind of good right now. I haven't eaten all day. What kind do you want?"
"All meat."
Ayame left the room while Shizuru dialed the phone number to the pizza place. As soon as the order was placed, Shizuru realized she needed to do some thinking. 'I have this strange feeling…something seems so different about Shina, but what is it?'
Shina was having a huge giggle fit during one particular scene in the movie she was watching with hr father. Sakyo just stared blankly at the screen, not really paying attention to the movie, but doing some thinking of his own.
'There is no way I could have created this being sitting next to me!' That was always the same thought he had whenever the real Ayame acted this way. 'What is so funny about this movie? There is nothing special about someone liking tater tots.'
Shina calmed down after a few minutes and took a drink of her soda. Then she did the same thing she did the previous night at the nice restaurant: she let out a very LOUD burp. Sakyo just shook his head and continued staring at the screen.
Ayame and her mother had finished their pizza and now Ayame was eating her second bowl of ice cream.
Shizuru looked at her daughter in disbelief that she ate as much as she did. "What's with being such a bottomless pit today?"
"I'm just hungry, that's all."
Ayame got up after finishing her bowl of ice cream. "I'm gonna go play around on the computer."
"Okay."
Ayame went upstairs to Shina's bedroom and picked up her cell phone and dialed Shina's number.
The movie had just ended and as soon as the end credits started playing, Shina's cell phone rang. (she keeps it with her at all times incase Ayame calls) Sakyo was happy that the movie was finally over and got up and started leaving the room while his daughter answered her phone.
"Hello?"
"Hey, Shina, what's up? How have things been?"
"Things have been great! How about you?"
"Awesome! Mother is great! I don't know how I went so long with out her. So, has dad come close to figuring anything out yet?"
"No, he doesn't know yet." As soon as 'Ayame' uttered that last part, Sakyo stopped in his tracks. Shina didn't know Sakyo was right outside the door and had heard her end of the phone conversation so far. He had not heard any names mentioned in the conversation yet, but was curious about who his daughter was talking about and with her friend. He did not even know who she was talking to. Normally, he never would have listened to her phone conversations like this, but something about this particular one sounded a little fishy to him. He also noted that 'Ayame' had in fact sounded serious when she said 'he doesn't know yet.'
'Who is she talking about and who is she talking to?' he thought. 'Maybe she is just talking about some boy she met.' He finally heard 'Ayame' say 'bye' to her friend, and decided that would be a good time leave the area so she wouldn't know he was there.
Shina thought she heard something after she hung up. She looked out the door and didn't see anything. "Oh well." She said to herself. She decided she was just imaging in things, and shrugged her shoulders. She took the movie out of the DVD player and put it back in the case, picked up her phone, and headed back to Ayame's room.
A/N: Uh, oh! It seems that Sakyo is getting a little suspicious. But, that doesn't mean he'll be the first to find out! Honestly, I haven't yet decided who will find out first. I have no idea when I'll get to update, but I'll try to as soon as possible. Finals are coming up. And sorry about any OOCness.
Like always, please READ and REVIEW!
