Disclaimer: Is there a reason for me to put a disclaimer on every chapter? I've decided to let this one be my only disclaimer and it continues for the other chapters.

I don't own anything. Ok? Is everyone happy now? Oh...except for Meilin...

Where we last left off:

"Who was on the phone?" she asked, "and how's your boo-boo?"

"Fine, sweetie. That was Hojo," I answered, "and I yelled at him."

"Yea!" she cried, "I never like that "Hobo" guy anyway." She ran off to find Souta.

"Just like her father," I whispered as tears streamed down my face.

Why does everything go wrong?

Now...on with the story...Don't forget to read and review...thx.


"Dinnertime!" I called. As soon as I said that, Meilin was at the table.

"Yay!" she cried. She ate her ramen really fast. I sat there, with my bowl, just stirring the food.

"Momma?" Meilin called. I looked up at my angel.

"What's wrong, Kagome?" Souta asked.

"Nothing," I said quickly as I shook my head. I left the dinner table soon after...

I grabbed the cordless phone and sat on my bed. I quickly dialed a number.

"Hello?" a voice answered minutes later, Kurama.

"Hey," I replied.

"Kagome," he greeted, "how did it go?"...

Kurama. I met him a while ago, after my first day of school with Kayko. I had met her when I was transferred to her school. She goes out with Yusuke Urameshi, my cousin, and ex-spirit dectective. He was part of an unusual team. It seems so weird that thier boss was atoddler;the first time I met him, I laughed,the first time I laughed in a while. It consisted of him, Kuwabara, Hiei, and Kurama. Hiei and Kurama are demons; Hiei, a forbidden one, and Kurama, who has a spirit of a Kitsune inside him.

Kurama, my mate, has been with me since I told Keiko about my baby. He is like the father Meilin never had. She loves him to death, and I know that he loves her. Keiko and Yusuke had threatened to beat up Inuyasha for me. I laughed, even though I appreaciated what they had said.

Yusuke and Kuwabara have a bit of a temper, and they make me laugh. Hiei is always quiet; he reminds me so muchof an arrogant hanyou. He also has a sister, Yukina, an ice demon. Kuwabara is the only one who hasn't figured out that she and Hiei are related; even my daughter knows.

Kurama goes by the name Suichi Minamoto. The kitsune that shares his body is Yoko Kurama, a notorious thief. The first time he showed me his demon side, I thought he was Inuyasha. Of course, I had to touch his ears.

...I explained what happened to him.

"He just doesn't understand," I finished, "there seems to be something wrong."

"That is so weird," Kurama said, "Maybe Koenma would know."

"Maybe," I sighed.

"What's wrong, Kagome?" he asked.

"I just wanted Meilin to know her father," I explained, "now I'm not so sure if I should have taken her to the fuedal era to begin with."

I heard a click and Meilin was on the phone.

"Papa Kurama!" she exclaimed, "Mommy got hurt today! Someone hit her!"

"Get off the phone, Meilin!" I hissed.

"K," she chirped.

"You got hurt?" Kurama asked.

"It was nothing," I explained quickly, "just a scratch. Inuyasha didn't mean to.."

"That stupid bastard hit you," he cut in, "he will pay for hurting you."

No one hurts you and gets away with it Yoko said through our link.

"I understand that. Calm down, love," I replied, "I'm heading back there tomorrow. I have to introduce her to her dear uncle Sesshomaru."

He laughed. Of course he knew about Sesshomaru.

"Would you like to come, Kurama?" I asked, "I need you now more than ever. Please."

"You definitely will not be going without me," he replied, "I'll make sure that inu never hits you again."

"Thanks, Kurama," I replied. We said goodbye and hung up.

"Momma!" I heard. I turned and Meilin jumped into my arms.

"What's wrong, sweetie?" I asked.

"Souta keeps picking on me," she said loud enough for Souta to hear.

"Am not!" I heard down the hall.

"Is he really?" I asked. I whispered in her ear how to get him back. She ran off.

"3...2...1..." I counted in my head.

"Kagome!" I heard. I laughed.


Sorry that chapter was a little short. I'm leaving tomorrow for the weekend but I promise to write more soon.
