"KIKYO? KAGOME? SANGO? WILL YOU PLEASE COME DOWN HERE FOR A MOMENT!" Ms. Higurashi yelled to her daughters as she walked into the house, a huge smile decorating her face. "NOW GIRLS," she continued as she walked into the family room.

Thundering footsteps were heard as Kagome raced out of her room and down the stairs.

"What is it mom?" Kagome asked as she tumbled into the room having tripped on the last step or so.

While behind her, her older sisters, Kikyo and Sango, calmly walked into the room and stood beside her sister. "Yes mother, what is it?" Kikyo said in her cold yet warm voice. (It's always cold…just since it's her mother…she tries to warm it up a little….I guess)

"Will you three sit down?" Ms. Higurashi asked as she sat down in one of the two love-seats facing a large sofa over a medium coffee table. "You all remember how I've been dating Inutashio Takahashi for awhile now right?" she asked, only continuing after her three daughters had seated themselves across from her on the sofa. When they nodded their recognition she continued, "Well, tonight we went out to dinner, and afterwards we went to the beach, and just as the sun hit the water and the sky burst into flames of color, Inutashio got down on one knee, and proposed! Girls! I'm getting married!" Ms. Higurashi exclaimed, her smile widening.

Kagome and Sango jumped up squealing, as Kikyo sat there calmly situated on the sofa, "Congrats mother," Kikyo said.

"Oh, yes, Congrats mom!" Kagome said as she stopped her happy jumping around.

"Yay!" Sango exclaimed as she also jumped up and jumped around the room with her younger sister.

"That's not all," Ms. Higurashi said, seeming to straighten herself. "We will be moving into their home…mainly because ours is not big enough for you two, Inutashio and me, and his four sons."

"When?" Kagome asked sitting back down on the couch looking serious.

"As soon as we can get our stuff packed." Ms. Higurashi simply answered. "So I'd like you three to go pack as much as you can tonight, so we can move in sooner, if possible."

"Mom?" Kagome asked.

"Yes? What is it?" Ms. Higurashi asked.

"What are his son's names, and what are they like?" Sango asked.

"Oh yes, well, his oldest is 18, and his name is Sesshoumaru, he is somewhat cold, and doesn't show his emotions to anyone, ever since his mother died. Then there is Sesshoumaru's half-brothers, Inuyasha and his twin Miroku, and their little brother Shippo. Inuyasha, I've been told, has a temper, and is very quick to act and ask questions later, and can be rude. While Miroku is a pervert and likes to hit on lots of girls, but he is pretty calm and collected, unlike his brother. And they are both 17, like you both. Shippo on the other hand is only 8, and is very energetic and loves to play, talk, and hug." Ms. Higurashi said. "I've actually never met any of them, but I Inutashio has told me that much about them."

"Okay, thanks mom!" Kagome exclaimed. "Oh! Do we have any boxes that we can pack stuff into?"

"Yes, I picked some up today, they are in the front room still," Ms. Higurashi said.

"Okay, then I'll go get started. Kikyo? Sango? You coming?" Kagome asked walking to the doorway, turning back to look at her older sister.

"Very well," Kikyo said, gracefully standing up and walking out of the room with her sister.

"Okay," Sango said following her two sisters.

Takahashi Household

"YOU'RE WHAT?" screamed a loud angry voice that echoed throughout the entire house.

"Calm down Inuyasha," Mr. Takahashi said. "I said I'm getting married again. To that woman I told you about, Kaoru Higurashi. She and her three daughters are moving into our home as soon as they are finished packing."

"Three daughters?" asked Miroku, a small perverted smile crept up his mouth.

"Yes. Triplets, Kikyo, Sango, and Kagome," Mr. Takahashi said. "Miroku you'd better keep your hands to yourself with these two. If I hear one single word about you touching them or asking them anything, you will be remarkably punished. Am I understood?" He asked, giving his son a glare that spoke millions of his punishment to come.

Miroku gulped, "Yes sir."

Inuyasha laughed, "Serves you right you pervert."

"And Inuyasha," Mr. Takahashi said, turning his attention to his second eldest. "You had better behave yourself as well, if you say anything to the three of them, you will also be punished accordingly."

"What about me daddy? What about me and Sesshoumaru?" Shippo's small voice asked from beside him.

Mr. Takahashi looked down at his youngest son, and gazed into his beautiful green eyes for a moment, "You are fine Shippo, just be careful how much and how tight you hug them. And don't annoy or taunt your brothers. Same goes for you Sesshoumaru." He added turning his attention to his eldest. "I'd better not hear any complaints about any of you. Am I understood?"

"Yes sir/daddy" were heard from the room (guess who said 'yes daddy' ­-)

"Oh, yeah. Dad, what're they like?" Inuyasha asked.

"Well, they are all 17 like you and Miroku. Kikyo being the oldest is kind of like Sesshoumaru, calm, graceful, composed, disciplined, and sort of cold." Mr. Takahashi said laughing as Sesshoumaru sent a glare towards him. "Sango is the middle child. She is sort of like her older sister, but she and her younger sister are more alike. Sango is a calm yet wild girl that will do anything to protect her sisters. Miroku she will be the one you have to worry about, she is fiery and won't hesitate to beat you to a pulp for touching her or her sisters." Inutashio said again laughing. "And the youngest, Kagome. She is also wild, and has a temper but unlike Inuyasha can keep it in check. She, like Kikyo, is good at archery, and like Sango, good at other sports. Such as martial arts, soccer, volleyball, basketball, swimming, and all other things like that. She is also joyful/happy/energetic, and gets happy/giddy easily." Inutashio said, smiling warmly. "You all will be nice to them and help them out won't you?" Inutashio asked smirking at his sons.

"Yes father/daddy" they all said.

"Good." Mr. Takahashi said standing up from his seat. "Now I want you all to go clear out two rooms for you soon-to-be step-sisters. Sesshoumaru and Shippo, you will both clean out the room next to Sesshoumaru's for Kagome. And Inuyasha and Miroku, you both clean out the one next to Inuyasha's room. Oh yes, and when you finish, all of you go work on the last one for Sango, how about the one next to Kagome. Okay?"

"Yes sir/daddy," was heard again and then rustling as all four children stood up and exited the family room to go do the tasks they had been assigned.

"This will prove to be entertaining," Mr. Takahashi said as he too walked out of the room to go ready his own room for his fiancé and him.
