cherry fantasy: Yay! Kagome's back! They will be reunited at last! I know! I agree! Poor Inu! Now I REALLY wouldn't be suprised if he goes into shock! I can't either and I agree! We'll just have to see! Kagome got over it pretty well so who knows? Maybe Katanna will too! But maybe not. . . Duh! Duh! Duh! Will she take the fact Kiotsu's part demon well or not! Another question! We'll have to wait and see! I'm so happy you loved it! I liked it too! Yeah! We really don't see a shy Katanna too often! Though. . . you'd kind of expect her to be shy after what's happened in her life. . . Anyways! Thank you! I'm soooooo happy you think I did a good job! I can't either! Don't worry about it! Like I said in an earlier review reply, I LOVE long reviews! They make me feel really happy! Thank you!

Taijiya-Hatake: I'm trying! I'm glad you like it! Thank you! I'm sorry but there's probably going to be more suspense later on so try not to die until after the story's over! Okay? LOL!

WARNING! Major Fluff ALERT between Inuyasha and Kagome! Not talking about lime or lemon! Just pure fluff! Okay! So it's going to get mushy between them! Just wanted to let you know before hand! (Truthfully. . . . . . I just wanted to put one of these warning things! giggle. But it'll still be pretty fluffy!)

Chapter 20

"Wow", said Kiotsu, shocked at all the things he had heard.

Nemaru, Akari, and Amida's faces resembled his.

After they finally got over their shock, Kiotsu said," So. . . That's what really happened?"

"Hai", said Inuyasha.

"And me and Nemaru. . . ", said Kiotsu," We're really part. . . demon?"

"Well", said Inuyasha," last I checked, I was a half demon so... yeah. I'd have to say so. But the difference is you are a quarter demon and Nemaru is a half demon like me."

"And i'm really supposed to believe all of this?" said Nemaru.

"Well that was the point", said Inuyasha.

"Keh. I don't believe it for a second", said Nemaru, crossing her arms.

Suddenly, Akari let out a giggle and Nemaru turned to look at her.

"Oi! What's so funny?" she said.

Akari just giggled harder. Amida cleared his throat with a grin on his face.

"I believe my sister is trying to say is that. . . it's very amusing how much you actually are acting like Uncle Inu here", said Amida, a chuckle escaping his lips.

"Keh!" said Nemaru," I don't even know him!"

Akari giggled and said," You did it again! Uncle Inu always says 'Keh!' "

Nemaru turned away from them, arms crossed, as she said," Ke-"

. . . but quickly cut herself off so as not to prove their point so she settled with a "Hmph" instead.

Kiotsu sighed and said," Do you always have to be so difficult, Nemaru?"

She answered with a glare over her shoulder.

"I see", said Kiotsu.

Then, Kiotsu caught 2 scents that smelled familiar, but being unfamiliar with his new heightened sense of smell, was unable to place them.

'Heh', Kiotsu thought,' A few weeks ago, before I started having those dreams, I probably would have thought i'd gone crazy if i'd thought any of these things.'

He then noticed that the hanyou across from him was looking at the door, frozen in place with a look on his face that was a mixture of disbelief and hope.

He got up and murmered one thing before speeding out of the hut.

"Kagome."

Kiotsu blinked as he looked at the spot his father had been only moments before.

'Whoa', thougt Kiotsu,' I actually thought of him as my father. Now that's going to take some getting used to.'

Kiotsu got up and headed for the door.

"Oi!" said Nemaru," Where're you going?"

"After him", said Kiotsu," Unlike some stubborn person I know, I actually want to get to know the father I barely know."

Nemaru turned her head to the side to look at him, ears drooping slightly, as she said," Kiotsu... How can we be so sure he's actually... him. I mean... "

Kiotsu walked over to his little sister and kneeled in front of her as her head lay bent over.

"Nemaru", said Kiotsu," I know it's all so much to take in but. . . trust me. He's our father. He's the real thing. So rather than spending time doubting, you should be out there getting to know the father you never knew. 'kay?"

Nemaru sighed and looked away as she said, reluctantly," I guess you're right. . . "

"Come on", said Kiotsu, standing up and reaching down his hand.

Nemaru took it and they ran out the door.

Amida and Akari just sat there, having been forgotten by both parties.

After a short pause, Amida turned to Akari and said," Shall we follow?"

Akari shrugged and said," Sure. Got nothing better to do anyways. Come on!"

They soon followed behind the 2 hanyous and quarter demon.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"I really don't think i'll be leaving any time soon. I kinda don't know where I am", said Katanna, motioning around her.

Kagome sighed and opened her mouth to speak but suddenly, she froze and turned around, slowly. Kagome could barely believe her eyes.

'Oh please', Kagome pleaded,' don't let this be another dream and if it is. . . . don't let me wake up.'

"Inuyasha?" she said, hesitantly.

"Kagome. . .", he said, softly.

Kagome felt her eyes growing wet and took a few hesitant steps before finally breaking into a full out run and charging into his arms, burying her head in his haroi. Kagome then felt warm arms engulf her and hold her tight. Kagome felt her eyes stinging and a few tears slipped out.

She felt him bury his head in her hair and inhale deeply before saying," Gods, Kagome. You don't know how much i've missed you."

Kagome sniffled and said," Probably as much as i've missed you."

"Kagome please don't cry", he said," You know I hate it when you do."

Kagome just looked up and closed the gap between them, their lips meeting. She relished in the feel of his lips, having almost forgotten what it felt like. She lifted her arms from his haroi to go around his neck as she pulled him deeper into the kiss. She poured all her pain, lonliness, need, desperation, and many other emotions, but most of all. . . . her love. She felt him lower his hands to the small of her back and her waist as he pulled her even closer to him so there was no space in between their bodies. She tangled her fingers in his long silky soft hair, as she remembered the feel of it. Her other hand went to his cheek as she felt the smoothness of his skin. How long she had yearned for him to be there, holding her like this, touching her, kissing her. How long she had felt an emptyness in her cheast with him not there. Now. . . . she couldn't remember her life without him.

She felt as he poured all of his emotions into the kiss. All of his lonliness. All of his pain. All of his need. All of his desperation. Everything he had felt for the past 15 years was poured into that kiss. She realized that she hadn't been the only one who had felt empty inside. She caressed his cheek before they finally broke away. Golden orbs met brown as their gazes met. She rested her head on his cheast as she listened to the beating of his heart and he wrapped his arms around her, his head on top of hers.

"Well that was akward."

Inuyasha and Kagome snapped their heads up and turned in the direction of the voice. Nemaru was blinking at them while Kiotsu really didn't seem suprised but just a looked a bit akward. Akari was shifting from foot to foot looking unsure of what to think. Amida looked a bit embaressed despite him being a pervert in all. I mean, how often to you see the man you've come to know as your uncle making out with a woman you've never had a chance to meet before. Kagome blushed lightly as she realized they had been standing there the whole time.

But then she took double take at Amida and Akari and reluctantly, getting out of his arms, said," So who are you two? I don't believe we've met."

"I'm guessing you're Lady Kagome?" said Amida.

Kagome just nodded her head.

Amida replied," Well then. My name's Amida and this is my twin sister, Akari."

"They're Sango and Miroku's kids", said Inuyasha.

"Oh!" said Kagome," That's wonderful! What all has happened while I was gone?"

"Why don't we go to Sango and Miroku's hut and i'll explain", said Inuyasha.

Then, Kiotsu noticed the figure near the well and said," Katanna! What are you doing here?"

"Kagome was about to tell me but then. . .", Katanna blushed and said," Well. . . you saw."

"I'm sorry!" said Kagome," I almost forgot about you."

"Who's she?" said Inuyasha.

"This", said Kagome," Is Katanna, Kiotsu's best friend since about. . . 12 years ago, I think."

Kagome gave him a pointed look at "best friend."

"Hm", said Inuyasha.

"Katanna", said Kagome, turning to look at her," this is Inuyasha, Kiotsu's father. Now wait until we get to the hut and then, i'll answer any questions you have. Alright?"

Katanna shut her mouth, having been about to ask a question and nodded, following them as they walked out of the clearing and into the forest. They walked until they came to a village outside of the forest. They walked to a hut and stepped inside. Everyone sat down as Kagome, Inuyasha, Amida, Akari, Nemaru, Kiotsu, and Katanna. With Kagome, Inuyasha, Amida, and Akari on one side, with Nemaru, Kiotsu, and Katanna on the other.

"Okay", said Kagome," Now you can ask questions."

The questioning began.
