Family Tree

Chapter 10: Enter Hidama

"Ayame!" Sora yelled running to hug her sister but stopped short when she saw Micah standing behind her. "Micah?"

He smiled lightly and then looked to Inuyasha who was glaring in his direction. It was no secret that Inuyasha loathed his family because of his father.

"What are you doing in my house?" Inuyasha asked briskly.

"He walked me home." Ayame replied for him.

"How nice of you Micah." Kagome said with a smile.

"Good she's here and you're leaving." Inuyasha said and stood up.

"No he's not I invited him in for something to drink or eat because he was nice enough to see that no demon's ate me on my way here." Ayame said standing in front of Micah.

"I'm really nothing like my father." Micah said.

Inuyasha stood still in the corner of the 'living room' his eyes still on Micah.

"You have no right to speak to me that way." Inuyasha said in anger towards his daughter.

Ayame's golden eyes turned ice cold. "You have no right to speak to me at all!"

Kagome looked between the two. "Stop it!" She yelled and they both turned their attention to Kagome.

Micah placed his hand on Ayame's shoulder. "I'll just go, it's okay." He said and then turned to Sora. "See ya later Sora." Then he left through the door he had just come in through.

Ayame glared at Inuyasha and pushed her way down the narrow hallway to her bedroom. She set the backpack down in a corner and began decorating her room with a few posters and small items she had brought from her era.


"Kiro." A young girl with aqua blue hair said as the black-haired orange-eyed Kiromaru entered his large castle. "Where is the woman?"

"She is there at that village, but I need a little longer to obtain her heart." Kiromaru said with a smile as he walked to take a seat.

"Is she as powerful as the master said?"

"Yes Saniko, she is very powerful but on top of all that she is beautiful. She will bare me wonderful sons."

The blue-haired Saniko smiled as a maidservant brought Kiromaru food and drink.

"And what about the other one, her sister?" Saniko asked.

"She is useless, she holds no great powers, her Miko power is just now developing and it will be harder for her to use it because of her father's demon blood."

"Kiro, you have returned."

Kiromaru looked up to see a young man who looked to be around the age of sixteen. His red hair was tied back and his green eyes glowed with innocence although Kiromaru knew he was nothing of the sort.

"Kayto." Kiromaru said as he entered the castle's throne room.

"I see the demon-priestess is not with you." Kayto said with a smile flashing fangs.

"No, she was being protected by the damned sister of hers." Kiromaru said in annoyance at remembering Sora's arrow hitting him in the side.

"She hit you didn't she?" Kayto asked walking forward and throwing a sack full of money and other goods on the table.

Kiro raised an eyebrow at his friend.

"What's this?"

"The goods from that village we attacked. I hid it in the forest when they came looking for us and just now went to retrieve it."

"Fox's always were thieves."

"Don't insult my heritage." Kayto said and looked to Saniko.

"Why are you still awake Saniko, you should go rest up." Kayto replied to the youngest of their little group.

The child-like girl smiled and nodded. "Yes, maybe I should."

Saniko ran off down one of the dark corridors of the almost abandoned palace. Leaving behind her two adoptive "older brothers."

"She is still creepy." Kayto said as he took the glass of sake (SP?) from one of the maids.

"Yes, but her powers will be great when we take down that bastard that killed my father."


Ayame opened her eyes to Sora pulling back the new curtains she had put up over her window.

"Sora!" Ayame yelled pulling her red and black blanket over her head.

"What, you need to let some sunshine in here. You make everything so dark."

"I like sleeping!"

"Well I wanna go out and train with you."

Ayame sat up.

"Train?"

"Yeah, you know how to fight really well, so I thought I would have my big sister train me too! That way when another demon attacks I can actually do some damage!"

"Sora, you did damage last time. Remember the arrow you shot at the black haired guy?"

"Yea, but I wanna fight for real too, you know with a sword…or uhh hand to hand!" Sora started and went on however, Ayame failed to hear a word she said as her mind drifted back to dream world.

"Ayame! Are you even listening to me?" Sora yelled in the very tired Ayame's face, which wasn't a good idea as she was dragged out into the living room where her mother was making breakfast.

After Ayame dropped Sora on the floor she turned to her, got really close to her face and in a voice that would have made Sesshomaru run away whimpering said "If you ever wake me up again consider yourself dead little sister." Then walked back into her bedroom and went back to sleep.

"I guess she's not a morning person…" Kagome said and continued to stir whatever it was she was making.

Sora made a noise to let everyone know she was angry and walked out the door into the bright sunshine of the morning. She began walking through the village.

"Stupid older sister…" Sora began to complain.

"Sora?" A woman said.

Sora turned to come face to face with a very tall, very regal looking woman with long strait white-blue hair and gold eyes. Her skin was pale and was marked with red stripes. The only thing missing to make the female Sesshomaru look-a-like different was there was no crescent moon in the middle of her forehead.

"Hidama!" Sora yelled and threw her arms around the older dog-demon.

"Little cousin, I was just on my way to see you're mother. Why are you out here alone?"

"Stupid Ayame." Sora said and crossed her arms over her chest.

"Ayame? You mean you're sister has returned?"

"Oh!" Sora said covering her mouth Hidama hadn't been informed of Ayame's return. Although it was easy to see why. Inuyasha still wasn't to keen with his older brother, and even though they have been on good- terms (well as good as either stubborn demon would allow) they still didn't talk that much. Hidama was the only one in Sesshomaru's family that would come by often.

Sora smiled pushing all thoughts of her fight with Ayame away. She took her cousin's hand and led her back to the hut where her family was waiting for her return.

A/N: Well there you go a new chapter and new character! Woot, I love the name Hidama, I think I took it from another fanfic…lol oh well…anyways read and review please and thank you for reading.
