Again, my usual apologies for the wait!

Chapter 32

Kagome's P.O.V.

I walked over to Sesshomaru-sensei and bowed. "What brings you here, Sesshomaru-sensei?"

Sesshomaru made a sound at the back of throat that sounded like some type of acknowledgement. "Kagome, where is my brother?"

My eyes widened. This was the first time he's called me by my first name. "Oh, he's in the kit-" But I was interrupted by Inuyasha's yell.

"Why is that bastard here?!" He came running in.

I corrected myself, "Umm, correction, he's in here yelling."

Sesshomaru made another sound. Then he turned his cold golden-eyes towards me. "Were you crying?"

My startled look must have made him reconsider his words.

"Not that I care," he growled. "I'm just curious and I can smell the smell of tears all over this room."

"I-I see," I stammered. "Well, yes I was crying. The police found my father's killer…he was murdered when I was little."

"Is that so?"

Just then Inuyasha jumped in between us with a pissed look on his face. He faced his older brother. "Did you not hear me the first time? Why are you here?!"

Sesshomaru-sensei's expression didn't change. "I came to tell you that I found your twin sister. If you weren't so loud, I could have already told you that."

The whole room froze.

Inuyasha's P.O.V.

I looked at Sesshomaru, feeling my eyes widen. He actually found our sister. Well, she's more mine than his because one, she's my twin and two, she was born from my mother. She disappeared when I was about five and Sesshomaru took us in after our mom died.

"Stop looking like an idiot," Sesshomaru frowned.

I snarled back, "Stop being such an ass."

The older ignored his brother's insults and turned towards the door. "Mitsuki, you can come in now."

I looked over to the door to see a girl about my age walk in. She had silver hair as long as mine and sparkling, amber eyes. On the top of her head were two triangular dog ears. She was wearing a black shirt that said 'Vampires Rule' in red and a gold and white skirt that went down to her knees. What surprised me the most was the pair of black angel wings on her back. Where did she get those? Before I could move she ran up and hugged me.

"Inuyasha, it's so good to see you! I've missed you so much!"

"Mit-Mitsuki, how've you been?" I awkwardly stuttered out.

"I'm awesome!" she blurted out.

"Mitsuki, is that you?"

We both turned to see Hikara step out of my group of friends that had gathered. Mitsuki suddenly let go of me and looked over at Hikara in shock.

She gasped, "Hika, is that actually you?"

"Holy crap, it is you! I missed you so frickn much!" Hikara ran over and pulled my sister into one of her crushing hugs.

"Hika, you're squeezing me. Stop it or I pull out the dagger and cut your necklace off," Mitsuki squeaked out.

Hikara took her arms off Mitsuki and laughed. "Sorry. But it's really good to see you again. But before introductions are made..."

Suddenly, Hikara took Mitsuki's arm and flipped her onto the ground. What the hell?!

Kagome was about to intervene, when Sango held her back. "San, we have to stop their fighting."

"It's fine. Look at the way they're fighting. Just watch."

Kirro and Ayame looked at each other and sighed. "Well, looks like Hikara's gonna get her ass kicked."

Mitsuki took a dagger out from under her shirt. Wow.

"Hika, naughty naughty, this is how you welcome your best friend?"

Hikara stuck out her tongue in response.

Mitsuki used her dagger and in a blur, escaped from Hikara's grasp and got behind her, placing the blade close to her throat. Natsume was conjuring water in her hands to defend her sister but Sesshomaru stopped her.

I looked back to the fight to see that Hikara still had the blade to my sister's throat. After a tense moment of silence, Mitsuki finally took the blade away. "And that's how you beat a vampire," she grinned.

She took the blade and drew it across her palm. "Here, you deserve some food Hika."

Hikara smirked, "Well if you insist. You did make me tired from that." She took Hikara's hand and licked up the blood.

She wiped her mouth when she was done. "Almost as good as Natsume's blood."

I closed my open mouth at what had just happened. Just what type of friends are they?

Hikara's P.O.V.

I'm so glad Mitsu escaped from that awful place. Although I wonder how she did.

I didn't hesitate to ask. "Hey Mitsu, how'd you escape?"

She looked at me nervously. "It's a long story. If you want, I can tell you. Of course Mr. Grumpypuss over there already knows." She pointed to Sesshomaru-sensei.

Was it just me or did his eyebrow just twitch? He cleared his throat. "Enough, I must return to my work. I shall leave you in their hands for now, little sister."

We all bid the man good-bye and Sango walked him to her door, closing it behind him as he left.

"Now that's done, Mitsu, want to tell us your story?"

She hesitated. "Do they…know?" Her eyes darted over my friends. I smiled at her and nodded.

"We have a bit of a long story to tell too," I offered. "But yeah, they know."

Looking a little bit more relaxed, Mitsuki sat down and so did everyone else. Their confusion was evident.

I started off. "Everyone, this is Mitsuki or as I call her, Mitsu. She was and still is one of my best friends. When I was in that dreadful corporation, we were tested in the same section and once in a while, we would share a room." I looked over at her. "But I didn't know you were Inuyasha's sister."

She laughed. "I told you I had a brother didn't I? And what good would it have been if I told you? It's not like it was gonna help us or anything. And besides, how would I know that you would've made friends with my brother?"

"I guess that's true…"

"Inuyasha," Kagome spoke. "I didn't know you had a sister."

He looked sheepish. "Yeah, I never really told anyone about it." Then he shrugged. "There wasn't a reason for it anyway."

"I see." Kagome fell silent but a look of hurt sparked over her expression as she stared at her feet.

Mitsuki turned to me. "Is Naraku still looking for you?"

I nodded. "Funny thing is, Naraku had taken a liking to Kagome a while back and changed her."

She looked taken aback. "What?! He changed yet another person with the powers he stole from you?!"

I chuckled lightly. "Yeah, Kagome's getting used to it now. But Naraku's coming after me and Kagome now." I frowned at Mitsuki. "And probably coming after you."

She laughed weakly.

"How did you escape?" I asked.

"Well, it was just like a regular day, you know, tests and some shots. But after Kagura did some tests on me, she left the room to get something, leaving the door unlocked and a guard standing outside. I quickly took this chance to get away so I knocked the guy outside unconscious and ran outside. With the help of my new wings, I flew out of there. I didn't know where to go so I wandered around for a while. I tried finding where Inuyasha could be but I heard Mom had already died and another family took my brother in. That's when I found Sesshy."

I erupted laughing at that nickname. "You call him Shessy? Holy crap, I love you even more!"

Inuyasha smirked then proceeded to ask, "Mitsuki, how'd you get the wings?" His face filled with concern. "You didn't have those before."

"Oh boy, I hate it when people ask that," I answered first. "I remember when she got them and I have to say, it was the most painful day for the both of us."

"Umm, can I not answer that question?" Mitsuki mumbled. Her cheerful expression was suddenly gone and her face void of colour.

Inuyasha raised an eyebrow. "You disappeared for all these years, suddenly coming back and you won't even answer these questions? Mitsuki, I want answers."

She hesitated, but seeing her brother's pleading look, she agreed. "Alright," she breathed in with a shaky breath. "I'll tell you how I got my wings."

Hope you all liked it!
