A/N: thanks to BlooTaco(3x) for another review and I'll let you get on with the story.

Character 4: Back To The Future

InuYasha POV:

Kagome came back from the river and made breakfast. After that she took Sumiko and Natsuki into a back room to get them dressed, leaving me with Takumi. I got him dressed in a kimono with a dark green background and light, sky blue squares. I of course was still wearing my normal robe. Natsuki ran out of the back room wearing a dark blue kimono with little bright pink flowers. She jumped in my arms and said,

"How do you like my kimono daddy?" I nodded,

"Its beautiful, did your mother get it for you?" She smiled and nodded,

"Mmhmm, mommy and Aunty Sango gave it to me for my birthday last year." Just then Kagome came out with Sumiko. Kagome had her hair pulled up with elegant gold combs and Sumiko's was in a fish-bone braid.

"Everybody ready to go?" Kagome asked.

"Ready when you are. The sooner we can get this picture business over with the sooner we can get alone." Sumiko pulled at her kimono which was grey with blue stripes on it.

"This is irritating, can we bring a change of clothes?" Sumiko asked Kagome.

"We can get you guys some clothes while we are on the other side so we fit in better." She responded and looked to me. "We should probably head out." I nodded and started for the door. Everyone followed me to the well and waited by the edge for instructions. I looked down at my oldest daughter and said,

"Sumiko, you jump down into the well first and we'll follow after you." She nodded to me and I helped her up on the edge of the well. She jumped down without hesitation and we saw the blue light. Next Kagome jumped down holding Takumi close then it was my turn. I picked up Natsuki. She grabbed onto my kimono as if if she let go she would be ripped away from me. I jumped into the well and came out on the other side.

Once we were all out of the well Kagome looked up at me and asked,

"So what's the game plan here? Are we just gonna walk out there and up to the house?"

"Well that was my plan unless you have something better in mind." She shook her head and took Sumiko's hand. She looked slightly irritated at Kagome but brushed it off and looked up at me.

"Who are we meeting here? They're not gonna be like mom are they?" I looked at Kagome for a second then back to Sumiko.

"They're worse than your mom." I put Natsuki down expecting something that hadn't come in three years.

"InuYasha," Kagome said, drawing out my name. "Sit!"

"Jeez, good to know these beads still work."

"I know," she walked out of the room and Natsuki bent down near my hand.

"Are you okay daddy?" Her concern was evident in her voice.

"Yeah, I'm fine. She use to do it a lot more."

"Well that's not very nice. Mommy can really hurt you if she keeps doing it. Why do you keep that necklace on if mom can do that to you?"

"Well I can't exactly take it off. Only Kagome or Kaede can."

"How come?" I sat up and leaned against the well.

"I only have demonic powers not spiritual. You on the other hand have both."

"Does that mean I can take it off of you?" Her voice went up a few octaves and she got a puppy dog look.

"Dunno, maybe." Her face changed to a look of determination as she responded.

"I have to try it for you."

"You are such a daddy's girl." I whispered as she climbed up on my leg.

"Very much so." She muttered, pulling on the subjugation beads. She managed to get the beads up to my nose before she had to let go. Her face dropped into a frown and she continued, "I can't do it alone. Maybe Takumi will help me. Come on daddy let's go inside." She took my hand and jumped off me. Standing up I let her lead me to the door of the house where Kagome was waiting.

"I don't know if I should just walk in." She said not looking up from the door.

"Its your house Kagome."

"I know but I haven't been here in three years."

"Fine I'll do it." I picked up Natsuki and opened the door. "Hey Sota?" I yelled in.

"InuYasha!" The boy in question came running out of the kitchen to the door and into my legs. "You're back!"

"Yeah, and I brought some people I think you'll wanna see." He stepped back.

"Who?" Just then Kagome's mother and grandfather came out from the kitchen as well.

"Oh InuYasha, I'm glad you're back. We got worried that you ran away or got arrested." Kagome's mother said making Kagome herself giggle from behind me. I smirked as everyone got a confused look on their faces. I stepped to the side and let Kagome walk inside. Sota's eyes watered up as did his mother's and grandfather's.

"Sis!" Sota yelled before running to hug his sister.

"Hey Sota, mom, grandpa."

"Kagome, when did you get back?" Her mom asked, going over to hug her. At this point Takumi was sitting on my shoulder and Sumiko had escaped her mothers hand and came to stand next to me.

"And who are these little cuties with InuYasha? Haven't seen them around before." Her grandpa asked.

"Right," Kagome started. "Mom, grandpa, Sota, these are my kids, Sumiko, Takumi, and Natsuki."

"And," her mother prompted her to continue.

"And, InuYasha is there father. They're three."

"Ah, so the little rugrats are a quarter demon." Her grandfather assumed. I laughed a little at his comment. The girls all had bandannas on and Takumi had a straw hat like the village men so they couldn't see Kagomes ears.

"No there half demons." Kagome stated bluntly.

"But how sis? If InuYasha is a half demon and you're human how are they half demons too?"

"Because she was human." I interjected from my place leaning on the wall.
