Sorry, this is my first story so the chapter isn't that great, but I promise it will get better.

"Mom! You missed Parents' Day again! You promised!" Ayumi cried out when she got home.

"I am so sorry dear, I got called away to the office and I couldn't get away." Kagome said as she thought she should probably tell Ayumi about Feudal Japan and about her father as well.

"Mom, this is the seventh time you forgot! Just tell me you'll, at least, come to teacher conferences with me on Saturday. Okay?" Ayumi asked as she looked into a nearly empty cupboard and found some noodles to cook. Her mother never really was good at cooking.

"Don't worry dear, I promise," Kagome called as she saw Inuyasha in the widow. She made signs for him to go away and tried to make an excuse to go see him without giving Ayumi the idea she was going to talk to him.

"You won't forget, right Mom?" Ayumi asked looking her mother in the eyes.

"I won't," Kagome said. "I'll be right back, I'm going to go pick up some groceries. Don't wait up to eat, I'll be right back." Kagome snuck outside as her thirteen year old daughter went into the living room.

"Few, at least she didn't catch Inuyasha," Kagome told herself. She walked down the steps of her home and over to the well. Inuyasha was waiting for her.

"So?" Inuyasha asked.

"I don't think she's ready."

"Kagome, you know she is."

"But I just can't tell her that her father is a half-demon. She'll think I went mad."

"What if I told her?"

"What are you mad? She'll freak out because there's a stranger in the house!"

"Then what are we going to do? I heard your conversation with her. How you were 'called away to the office.'"

"So?"

"So you need to stop lying to our daughter!"

"She doesn't have to put her life in danger!"

"She needs to know who her father is!"

"She doesn't have to go to Feudal Japan with you!"

"She needs to know why you're gone all day!"

"No she doesn't!"

"Kagome!"

"Inuyasha!"

They both growled and looked away from each other. Little did either of them know that Ayumi was listening. She heard all of the things they had said and was thinking about all the things they had said.

"So a half-demon is my father, and my mom goes to Feudal Japan everyday. That means she was lying to me! And the man that Mom was talking to, he said 'our daughter,' that means he's my dad!" Ayumi whispered.

Inuyasha picked up the noise, but didn't say anything. It was about time that their child knew just who he was. He was done looking through the window to see his only child grow up without him. He will bring her to his era and nothing Kagome did could stop him. It was his child she was protecting from him and he was sick of it. Even if he knew the feudal area was no place to raise a child.

Ayumi looked down through a hole in the shrine wall and saw a man with gray hair, old, red clothes, and dog ears. She crammed her fist into her mouth so she wouldn't scream. "This is who my father was supposed to be! A dog-eared demon!" Ayumi whispered.

Kagome remembered she had told Ayumi before she left that she would be right back. "I got to go, I told Ayumi I was going to get groceries. I'll see you this weekend."

Inuyasha wasn't about to tell Kagome that Ayumi could hear everything and watched as Kagome ran off. Kagome was still forgetful after all these years. Once Kagome left, Inuyasha listened as Ayumi crawled out of her hiding spot and started to walk away. Inuyasha jumped into the well that sent him back into his own time where demons of all kinds roamed and savaged the lands. He met up with Miroku and Sango, but didn't say anything. They had learned to keep their mouths shut when he was in a bad mood.

Kagome ran to the store and bought a couple of things and then ran home, hoping her daughter wouldn't mind too much that she was late, again. When she arrived home she saw Ayumi still watching television and the water just about boiling. Ayumi turned and looked to see Kagome putting away some actual food other than noodles and Ayumi gave a little cheer. She was starting to get sick of them, no matter how she cooked them. Ayumi then remembered when Kagome and her demon-dad were talking earlier and her dad had just disappeared when she walked around into the shrine. She looked all around, but didn't see him anywhere. She figured since it was her mother's favorite spot to go, it figures there is something weird about it.

They ate supper in silence and Ayumi went straight to her room to study after dinner. She had three tests in one week and she had to study for them. She didn't remember when, but she fell asleep studying. Kagome walked in and saw her sleeping at her desk. She quietly closed the door and turned around.

It was so quiet in her home, she sighed and walked over to her bed. She was so tired from searching that she fell asleep when her head hit the pillow. She fell into a deep sleep in a matter of moments.
