A/N: Chapter 2 coming up! Anyways, I would like to thank to those who reviewed. I actually expected to get less than five reviews since its only two chapters so far but wow. I'm so happy.

Well, I read the reviews you guys gave me and it seems most of you think that Naraku is responsible for attacking Kikyou. I'm sorry to say that it's not him. It's someone else. Someone who you wouldn't expect to ever harm Kikyou. And no, it's not the real Inuyasha either. So you'll just have to keep on guessing on who the real criminal is.

Disclaimer: I'm not rich enough to own anything.


Present Day

Yamada Manse

Knock! Knock! Knock!

"Takeshi, please wake up. You are going to be late for school." A feminine voice came from the other side of the door. A dark strand of hair peeked out from the bed sheet. "But it's too early and I'm still tired. Give me ten more minutes." A muffled voice replied. The door suddenly opens and an aggravated woman steps in. "Oh no you won't young man. Your mother has specifically ordered me to wake you at the exact time so either get your butt out of bed or there'll be some serious consequences that you won't ever find fun to get." There was no reply. The woman was about to kick the occupant of the bed out when an idea crept in her head. An evil and brilliant idea.

She walked around the bed, opened the curtain that darkened the room, and without warning, pulled the bed sheet away. "AHHHHHHH! THE LIGHT! IT BURNS!" The scream could be heard around the manse. "Good. Now that you are awake, I expect you to be showered and fully dressed in 30 minutes and come downstairs to eat your breakfast." "You are one very cruel person, Aunt Sango." Takeshi said tiredly. "I know." With that said, Sango walked out of the room and closed the door behind her.

31 minutes later…

It was already 7:21 a.m. when Takeshi finally made his presence in the dining room. "Why must you dress so slow? You are late." Sango, who was already seated, glared at Takeshi. "Oh please, Sango. Give the guy a break. No one's perfect you know." Another woman who had black hair and red eyes and was sitting across from Sango spoke in an amusing voice. "Oh, good morning Aunt Kagura. I didn't know that you're even here. I bet you're here to do business with mom." "Actually, no I am not. I'm just here to visit my ne---" Sango then kicked Kagura under the table. "My ne---?" Takeshi asked with a confused face. "Um, she meant that she's visiting her necklace." Sango explained rather quickly. "A necklace?" "Yeah…" "Okay then. That's interesting to know…I think. Anyways I forgot something in my room that I really need to get so if you'll excuse me…" Without another word, Takeshi left rather hurriedly.

Kagura was staring at Sango long and hard before saying, "A necklace? Of all of the words that started with n-e and all you could think about is a necklace? The boy probably thinks that we're crazy or something thanks to your word of choice." "Well excuse me. Maybe if you'd had shut your mouth of giving the reason on why you're here, things might have ended differently." Both women were whispering for fear of Takeshi hearing them. "And besides," continued Sango. "You're not even suppose to be here, remember? If Kikyou ever finds out…" "And I trust that you won't tell?"

Before the women could finish their conversation, they could hear a pair of footsteps coming towards them. "…and that is why the sun is not a planet." "Well, I still don't get it but whatever. Oh Takeshi, you're back. You found what you were looking for?" asked Kagura. "Yes. Kohaku's probably at school by now so we should get going, Aunt Sango." "Yeah, you may be right. After all that little brother of mine is an early riser. I don't really know how he does that. And please don't be so formal. I'm too young to be called an aunt." Sango said with a smile. "Same here. Just call us by our first name, okay Takeshi?" Kagura also gave the boy a smile. "Um, sure. If that's what you want." Takeshi complied. 'Hmmm. They sure have a suspiciously sweet smile…wonder what they're up to?' he thought. "Oh, wait. You still need to eat your breakfast." reminded Sango. "Don't worry. I already ate in my room."

"Okay then. I suppose we should head out. Kagura, you should head home now that there will be no one to keep you company in here." The two got up from their seats and the three went outside where two cars, one red and the other black, were waiting. "Well, you're right as always. Sesshoumaru must be worried by now." Kagura sighed. "You mean to tell me that you never told him that you were coming here? That's a very bold move you made." Sango said. "I know. I mean---" "What is your relationship to Mr. Sesshoumaru, Kagura?" interrupted a surprised Takeshi. "Oh, well he is my husband." Kagura replied. By now, Takeshi had a very excited look in his face. "You're married to THE Seeshoumaru? The same guy who, along with that brother of his, makes those swords?" "Why are you so excited Takeshi?" asked Sango. "Because I think those swords are pretty cool and I always wanted one."

Both Sango and Kagura thought, 'Like father, like son.' "We can't have that now can we? I'll ask him to make a sword and see where that goes, alright?" Kagura asked. "Really? Wow, you're the best!" the boy exclaimed. "A-hem. We really should be going now." coughed Sango. "Oh, right. Well, see you soon, Kagura." And with that, Takeshi ran towards the black car and went inside. "You sure made him happy." "I know. Too bad it will be short-lived. I don't know what Kikyou was thinking when she decided to restrict Takeshi from ever having too much fun." Kagura stated. "We can't do anything about it though. Well, I have to go now to drop Takeshi off, so say hello to Rin and Kanna for me." "Sure." And with that both women went into their separate car, one going one way and the other, another way.

Meanwhile at the Takeda Manor…

Two people, one an old man and the other a girl, are facing one another. Each was holding a sword in their hand. "Hyaaaaahhhh!" the girl yelled and thrust the sword she was carrying towards the other person. Both swords clashed with one another. "Well, well, well. It seems that your sword fighting skill is growing more and more impressive, Miss Sakura." The old man complimented and both he and the girl lowered their weapon. "You really think so, Myouga?" Sakura asked. "No, I don't really think so. I know so." a smiling Myouga replied.

A blue Sedan suddenly made its way through the driveway of the manor. The engine stopped and before long a woman came out. 'Oh, great. It's her. What's she doing here?' Sakura thought. The woman looked around and when she saw Sakura, walked towards the girl. "Ah, Sakura. It's good to see you. Playing swords again, I see. Like father, like daughter." The woman smiled that really didn't reach her eyes. Sakura faked a smile in return. "Good morning, Kagome. What are you doing here? I thought you had a tour to do?"

"Well I was going to do that but then a thought occurred to me. If I go, Inuyasha-puppy would be so lonely without me around so I cancelled it." 'Gah. I can't believe she called father that. What does he see in her anyways? I'll ask later.' It seems that the girl has taken no liking to the woman. "Sakura, would you be a dear and tell me where your father is right now? It is urgent that I see him." Kagome asked. 'Oh sure. He's in the deepest pits of hell.' "He's inside the building. Probably eating in the dining room." Sakura replied. "Is that so? Well, thanks for the info. See you later." Kagome gave Sakura a pat on the head and went inside the house.

"What I really wish for is for that witch to be eaten by sharks." muttered Sakura to herself after Kagome was gone. Unfortunately, Myouga, who was still standing where he stood, heard her. "Do you really despise her that much, Miss Sakura?" The girl turned toward the man with a shocking look on her face. "You heard what I said?" Sakura's face turned bright red. "Well I wasn't a servant of your father for nothing. You shouldn't be embarrassed, you know. After all, there are others who holds no love for that woman especially Sesshoumaru." "Are you serious?" The embarrassed look was replaced by an unbelieving look. "Yes. But you'll have to ask him why by yourself." Myouga wisely said before the girl could ask anymore questions.

"Anyways, shouldn't we practice more? After all, tomorrow you are going to compete in another school. I heard that the students there are very competitive." "But of course. The school is primarily filled with boys." Sakura reasoned. "And you'll be the first girl ever to win against them, isn't that right?" Myouga asked with encouragement. "You bet I will. Those boys won't know what hit them." Sakura replied. And so, forgetting all about Kagome and a burning desire to win the competition in her mind, both the teacher and pupil continued their training till daytime. "Watch out Miasma High. Sakura Takeda is about to take you down."


A/N: And that's the end for chapter 2. Look forward to chapter 3 since that's when the siblings finally meet for the first time since their birth. Hope you R&R!
