Chapter 2Long Lost Sisters
"You're my father!" Ayame shouted.
The man looked at her oddly and raising an eyebrow he spoke.
"I'm you're what?" He asked.
"My father! You are my father!" Ayame shouted again getting more frustrated by the second.
She stood there looking at her father, the man who had left her and suddenly she couldn't find any words. Ever since she could remember she would go over what she would say to him if she ever met him, but now her mind was blank.
"I think you're insane." He replied crossing his arms over his chest.
She looked at him, her golden eyes fierce.
"NO! I AM NOT!" She screamed at him.
Ayame went for the golden locket that hung around her neck and pulled it off. She then sent it flying towards the man she deemed her father. The locket fell to the dirt ground at his feet and he looked at it in shock.
"Where did you get this?" He asked.
"My mother! Kagome Higurashi gave it to me! She gave it to me when you guys took me to the shrine! It was my first time without you, and I didn't want you to leave me in such a strange place! I cried and I cried, so she took the locket off her neck and placed it around mine telling me as long as I kept it on I would never be without you. I haven't taken it off since." Ayame replied fighting to hold back tears, but she wouldn't cry not for such a stupid reason.
She turned her back on the group of strangers. Then took off at a run into the large forest ahead of her. Shippo turned to Inuyasha and frowned.
"Aren't you going to go after her?" He asked.
"No, I have to go tell Kagome. Plus Sora will find her." Inuyasha replied and walked off back to his wife.
Ayame kept running. She didn't know where she was going but she didn't care. She had to get away. Go somewhere and think. A quiet place to clear her mind. She came to a stop in a small clearing and saw a girl with her back turned looking up into a giant tree.
That looks familiar…wait that can't be the sacred tree?
Ayame crouched behind a bush and looked to the girl in the short red and black kimono. She had a bow in her hand and arrows fastened to her back. On her left side was what looked like a short Katana. Her hair was black with silver tips and it fell just below her shoulders. Ayame couldn't help but wonder who she was and what she was doing looking at her tree. Ayame stood and started walking towards her when she spoke.
"Who's there?" She said.
The girl turned and pointed her arrow strait at Ayame's heart. Ayame stopped and looked at the girl. At first she was shocked and then she smiled.
"What you going to do? Kill me?" Ayame asked.
She always wanted a real fight. And she could take this girl down any day.
"What do you mean she's back?" Kagome said looking at the gold locket the was on the table in front of her.
Her eyes were brimmed with tears at the news of her daughters return. She smiled.
"Well where is she?" Kagome asked.
"She ran off into the forest." Inuyasha replied.
"Wait, you mean she is in the forest by herself?" Kagome asked.
"No Sora is in there remember." Inuyasha replied.
"Oh no!" Kagome yelled.
"Oh no? Oh no what?" Inuyasha replied.
"Sora is in the forest, if she finds Ayame she is bound to get into a fight thinking she is some sort of monster. And last I remember Ayame likes a fight. It will be you and your brother all over again."
Inuyasha's eyes widened at the prospect of his two daughters fighting.
"If that's true then Sora's in for one hell of a beating."
"Inuyasha! Sora and Ayame don't have magical swords to save them!"
Inuyasha's eyes grew even wider at the remark.
"Come on we have to hurry." Inuyasha said grabbing Kagome and running off into the forest after his daughters.
Sora let go of the first arrow. Ayame watched as it raced towards her. She quickly went to the ground in order to dodge the oncoming arrow. She jumped back up again and smiled at the young girl who was trying to take her life.
"Is that the best you got?" Ayame asked racing towards Sora as she went for another arrow.
She quickly dodged a second arrow and kicked Sora's feet out from under her. Sora went to the ground with a loud thud, and a gasp of pain.
Good thing I took all those fighting classes…Ayame looked at the girl as she stood up and retrieved her bow.
Stupid girl? Doesn't she see she isn't strong enough to fight me?"Why don't you give up?" Ayame asked as she kicked Sora again making her fly a couple of feet.
Sora sat up grudgingly and spit out a mouthful of blood.
"Giving up just isn't my thing." Sora replied.
"Well then I guess you'll die!" Ayame yelled and ran towards Sora again. Kicking the bow away and out of her reach she kicked Sora in the chest sending her backwards. Grabbing the short Katana as she went by she kneeled above her head and brought the blade to her throat.
"Give up yet?" Ayame asked.
Sora didn't answer she just looked into Ayame's eyes and gasped.
"Your…your eyes." Sora said.
Ayame looked at Sora oddly and was about to reply when she heard the voice of another girl.
"Stop!" She yelled.
Ayame looked up to see her father and a woman…the woman that looked exactly like her mother, and exactly like the girl below her.
"Mother!" Sora yelled.
"Sora…" Kagome said as the younger girl ran to her parents.
Ayame took the blade away from Sora's throat and fell backwards onto her back.
If she said mother…then that means…Ayame turned her head slightly and looked to her father, mother, and the girl who was probably her little sister.
"Can someone please tell me what the hell is going on?" Ayame asked still on the ground.
"Yeah, I want to know too." Sora said pulling away from the embrace she was in with her mother.
Ayame brought the blade to her face and saw her eyes reflecting back at her. Her yellow eyes. Sora knew…she knew because of her eyes.
"Please, Ayame come here." Kagome said quietly.
Ayame stood and looked at the family in front of her. The family that had abandoned her.
"No." Ayame said coldly.
Kagome frowned at her daughter, and began to cry.
Inuyasha looked to Kagome and consoled her.
"Why should I come to a family that abandoned me?" Ayame asked. "Why should I come to you mother when you left me to rot!" Ayame yelled.
"I didn't leave you Ayame." Kagome replied still crying.
"You left me with people I didn't know! In a place that was strange to me! When I was three! I didn't want you to go! But you did, both of you did. Even though I cried for you not too." Ayame protested.
This was it! She finally got to yell and scream at them. She finally got to make them feel like shit. Like she did. But when she looked into the face of the woman in front of her, her resolve faltered. Her blue eyes were so sad. She was crying, she really didn't plan on never returning something had gone wrong.
"We didn't leave you." Inuyasha said.
"Well then what happened? How come you never came back? Why did you leave me to think I was unwanted?" Ayame paused. "I looked at myself in the mirror everyday and asked myself what's wrong with me? what did I do to make them not want me?" She finished.
Sora, the girl looked at Ayame. Her eyes were full of fear.
"You really…really felt like we didn't want you?" Kagome asked.
"Yeah." Ayame said with a small smile. "Now it all sounds so childish." She replied.
Kagome broke away from her family's grasp and walked over to Ayame.
"I would never abandon you Ayame. When I found out I couldn't go back my heart broke into a million pieces. I never felt so hurt and lost. I tried everyday to go back to you. And still even now If you weren't here I would try to go back. I would never forget you." Kagome replied and hugged her daughter.
"I'm so glad, that you're okay." Kagome said into Ayame's ear.
Ayame hugged the woman, her mother back. She looked over to her father and her sister and smiled.
She pulled away from her mother and ran to retrieve Sora's bow. After grabbing it she ran over to her sister and handed her the weapons.
"Sorry about the whole trying to kill you thing." She said with a smile.
"Yeah me too." Sora replied taking the weapons.
Ayame laughed.
"Were did you learn to fight like that anyways?" Sora asked.
"Oh just in a few classes." Ayame replied.
"Classes?"
"Yeah at school…" Ayame replied with a frown.
"Not that skool again!" Inuyasha shouted.
Kagome laughed. And Ayame shrugged as the family of four walked back to the small village.
