Dreamstar: Gomen (sorry). I know I haven't updated in a while since...APRIL 17th! How could I have done this to all of you! I'm a horrible person. I usually update in a week or a day, that's almost a MONTH! I feel so bad(sulks in a corner).

Kaori: We should let her rest a bit. She always updates weekly, seeing something not updated in about a month kinda makes her feel bad that her fellow readers didn't get to read for that long. Let's start with the first review. This one is from an anonymous reviewer, Lexy, from chapter 30. It reads

OMG! I'm a dumb blond so I totally don't know who is behind the door... Inu's dad? Sesshy? Not Naraku... is it? No way. Well maybe... jeeze i can never make up my mind. I have a voice in my head that always talks to me too! Kinda like Kaori!LOLZ! Anyways, I don't got a clue! Oh well! PLEASE POST MORE! Thank you and goodbye. (wow I sound really hyper...)

(steaming) I AM NOT A FIN VOICE IN SOME GEEKS HEAD! (I decided to write bad words and cusses in a different way...HEY!)

Dreamstar: WHAT THE HE ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT! I AM NOT A FREAKIN GEEK! Did I just say what I think I said? Oh well, it is sensored, but not enough for people not to know what I said.

Kaori (with Inuyasha like eyes staring at someone in disbelief): You sure got better fast.

Dreamstar: Yeah, I can get over things fast. This next review is from

What the hell were you thinking!Making a cliffhanger!Do you have fing brain-damage or something?Fix and hurry with it!

Sorry if I sensored it a bit. I don't. It's just that cliff hangers are fun now and again and leave readers wondering what the heck will happen next. This next review is from blackrose4life from chapter (can you believe it) 1. It reads:

this is kinda like a really perverted story i wrote to bad i lost my copy lol

How is it perverted? Sure Miroku is in it and all, but you don't see any lemons scattered through out the story. At least it's not that bad. Let's finish this now.

Disclaimer: I do not own Inuyasha...but I own all characters I've written about in this story.

Chapter 31

Fight AgainstYou? Part 1

"It is nice to see you again, Inuyasha." The rough yet gentle voice said.

"F…Father?" Inuyasha said, wide-eyed and shocked.

"F…Father?" Inu asked. "He's our Father?" Inu turned towards InuYasha. He was now glaring at him.

Kagome was thinking hard about something else though, she was still outside trying to remember what she wanted to ask InuYasha last time. When she heard Inuyasha, she ran inside to see InuTaisho standing there, smiling.

"Y…You're…You're…" Kagome stuttered, not knowing what else to say.

"Just call me InuTaisho. I finally get to meet you, Kagome." InuTaisho said.

"But how can you be here?" Kagome asked.

"Let's just say, memories can hold a part of you for a long time. A part of me was inside Inuyasha. Sure, Inuyasha was only a baby last time I saw him, but I am glad I get to meet him in person." InuTaisho said as he looked at his youngest son.

"Why was the door heavily locked then?" Inuyasha asked.

"Well, I was a memory locked away because of the fact that you barely remember me at all. So, like all the other horrible memories, I was locked away." InuTaisho explained.

"So I'm fighting against you, Father?" Inuyasha asked.

"Yes. Every son needs to fight his father, right?" InuTaisho said.

"But what about Sesshomaru?" Inuyasha said.

"If he ever learns how to protect humans, like my son right here." InuTaisho said as he patted a blushing Inuyasha on the back. Kagome just smiled as she stood by the shocked Inu. InuYasha, however, seemed as calm as ever.

"Ok, on to more important matters. Shall we begin this fight?" Inuyasha asked, pulling Tetsuisaiga out.

"Yes, let's." InuTaisho said as he pulled out Tetsuisaiga and Tensaiga.

'Hmm… Tetsuisaiga and Tensaiga are what Dad is using. Tetsuisaiga vs. Tetsuisaiga, ha, kinda funny. Now back to being serious. Dad can use Tetsuisaiga and Tesaiga's attacks. This will be pretty tough. I just gotta knock them both out of his hands.' Inuyasha continued thinking of a plan against his father.

"Could you help us out, InuYasha?" InuTaisho asked. InuYasha was confused, until he found out what was going on.

"Ok. Opponents face each other." Both Inuyasha and InuTaisho faced each other. "Bow," they bowed their heads down, "and begin!" Inuyasha took off, rushing towards InuTaisho. InuTaisho was ready for Inuyasha's attack. He swung Tetsuisaiga at Inuyasha, but Inuyasha disappeared (like when Hakudoshi was fighting Regokuki or whatever his name was). InuTaisho looked around. No Inuyasha in sight.

"Wind Scar!" Inuyasha launched a first attack from above. InuTaisho looked up and swiftly dodged the attack.

'Da- -! Just barely missed.' Inuyasha thought as he looked around the room. He sniffed around, and caught the scent coming from his left. He dodged before InuTaisho could strike.

"I see you have improved. Try this, Wind Scar!" InuTaisho yelled. Out came the most powerful Wind Scar Inuyasha has ever seen in his life. Inuyasha side jumped right before the attack could make contact.

'That was close. I gotta be more careful.' Inuyasha planned on striking Tensaiga, that way, he can do some real damage.

"Take this." Inuyasha charged towards InuTaisho. InuTaisho was ready, but Inuyasha disappeared yet again right before making any contact. InuTaisho, surprised by this, felt a piercing power in his left arm. Inuyasha had stroke right into InuTaisho's left arm, knocking Tensaiga right out of his hand.

"How'd you like that?" Inuyasha asked. Tensaiga had gone towards Inu who, out of curiosity, picked it up. He decided to hold on to it, till the fight was over.

"Not bad. Let's see how far you will go now!" InuTaisho said. He disappeared as Inuyasha started sniffing around.

'What the he- -! I can't sniff him out. His scent just disappeared. This is bad.' Inuyasha continued looking around the room. Soon he heard a rush of wind from behind him. He was then knocked down to the floor.

"Wind Scar!" InuTaisho yelled as he launched a wind scar at the stunned Inuyasha. Inuyasha reacted as fast as he could, but his leg was caught in the blast.

'Da- -, my leg is too busted up to use. How can I fight with this.' Inuyasha thought.

"You ok Inuyasha? You look beaten up. Care to give up?" InuTaisho asked.

"Why would I? This battle has just started." Inuyasha smirked.

"Just like your father." a voice said behind Kagome. Kagome turned around, surprised and stunned.

"I…I…Izaiyoi!" Kagome stuttered.

"Yes, it is I." Izaiyoi said as she appeared in the room.

"Mother!" all three Inuyashas said.

"It is nice to see you too." Izaiyoi said.

"So, you're here too?" Inu said as he ran toward her. She smiled at him.

"Yes, I am."

"So, you've come to watch Father and me fight?" Inuyasha asked.

"That is correct. I have never been so proud…well except for when you and Kagome got married (this made Inuyasha and Kagome blush). Now finish you fight you two, but don't be two hard on one another." Izaiyoi said before InuTaisho and Inuyasha started the fight again. With one injured leg, Inuyasha was at a disadvantage. Inu was getting worried. Kagome had noticed that Inu was on the floor, holding Tensaiga in his right arm and his foot with the other. It was injured as badly as Inuyashas. So was InuYasha's leg.

"How are your legs hurt so badly?" Kagome asked.

"Well, because all of the Inuyashas are connected, except for demon Inuyasha, we all share the same pain. Demon Inuyasha just keeps going on a killing spree till he dies. That's why our legs are injured this badly." InuYasha explained. "Each soul has a number of minds in it by personality and what not. Some are pure enough to only have one. That's why you've never heard of your conscientious."

"Hey, how come you knew about that?" Kagome said.

"Let's just say our minds are connected." InuYasha hinted, knowing that Kagome still didn't know about that part of the mating ritual (I know that it isn't fair that Kagome still doesn't know about the mating rituals "side effects", but hey, it makes the story humorous. ' There will be a chapter dedicated to Inuyasha finally explaining about that side effect). Kagome just stared at him, confused. But then she turned her gaze back to the battle.

Inuyasha was growing weaker and weaker as the battle continued. 'All of this blood loss is bad. If my body (mind?) takes any more damage, I'll lose. I've gotta think of another tactic.' Inuyasha thought as he stared at his father. This battle was tiring out all of the Inuyashas in the room, so he had to think of something fast. 'The only idea I have is the backlash wave, but what attack will Father have to use in order for me to use it? I guess I'll just have to knock Tetsuisaiga out of his hands.' Inuyasha quickens his pace towards his father, flips over his father and aims for his Tetsuisaiga.

Clang! Tetsuisaiga had been knocked out of InuTaisho's hands. InuTaisho watched as Tetsuisaiga fell towards Inu. Inu picked this one up too. 'I'm getting a sword collection! Cool!' Inu thought. InuTaisho just smirked, causing Inuyasha to be confused.

"What's with the smirk?" Inuyasha asked.

"Oh, nothing. Except that you forgot I have one more sword, and it isn't that easy to knock out of my hands." he said as wind started circling around his hand, forming the…

Dreamstar: You guys are probably falling out of your seats. Crying for more? Wait, cause I need to think of what to write next, so stay tune!

Kaori (yawning): Well, time to hit the hay till next time I'm needed.

Dreamstar: But you are needed. You are needed to get me a soda!

Kaori: NO! (dashes off)

Dreamstar: Oh well, please review!
