Chapter One: The Arrival

Inuyasha was yet again arguing with Shippo. This time, it was about as something as stupid as who had more rice cakes. Shippo held up his.

"I have 10!" he said. Inuyasha snorted.

"I've got 10 too, but I have more because that one is deformed and smaller." Inuyasha said, pointing to one of Shippo's rice cakes, which was just a tad smaller than the rest he had.

"SO?" demanded Shippo. "Size doesn't matter." Shippo crossed his arms and turned away from Inuyasha. Inuyasha shrugged, and was about to say a mean remark of how short Shippo himself was, when a blinding light appeared. Out of no were, a body of a young girl appeared, and the light vanished. Inuyasha went over to her, and sniffed her.

"She is not from around here." He said, blinking at the rest.

"Oh wow… like we couldn't have told that from her clothes." Shippo muttered. It was true. She had on blue jeans and a light blue tee. Around her neck was a medallion. Kagome came over and studied her.

"She might be from a time before mine?" she suggested. She looked at the amulet. It had a strange creature on it. Inuyasha shrugged.

"Well, lets go then! We are wasting daylight!" he said. Sango looked at him like he was crazy.

"What are you… crazy? We have to look after the girl until she comes to. She only looks to be about 4. Plus, she doesn't have any visible weapons." Sango said. Kagome scanned the girl from the top of her short black hair, to the bottom of her tennie shoes.

"And what's more is that she doesn't have a jewel shard." Kagome concluded. Inuyasha sighed.

"Oh all right! We'll stay here until she can take care of herself." Inuyasha sat down, and snatched one of Shippo's rice cakes, seeing as how he ate all of his already.

"HEY!" Shippo yelped. He quieted after Inuyasha's glare. Kagome put a blanket on the girl. She was abnormally cold. Miroku stared at the girl. Something was not right about her. Kirara sniffed her, than curled up beside her. It soon got dark.

The next morning came. Inuyasha was up early. He had planned to eat the rest of Shippo's rice cakes. Suddenly, the girl groaned. Inuyasha was curious, and went over to her. Her eyes snapped open and she sat bolt upright.

"GRENWELL!" she yelled. Unbelievably, all it woke up was Kirara. Inuyasha almost toppled over backwards at the sudden outburst.

"Wha!" he said, putting a hand on her shoulder. "Take it easy! Your safe for the moment!" he said. The girl looked around at her surroundings.

"Were am I?" she asked, amazed.

"Inuyasha's forest." Inuyasha said. "Who are you?" The girl looked at Inuyasha.

"They call me Kay." She said. "And who are you?"

"Inuyasha." Kay looked at him, and noticed for the first time his ears, fangs, and nails.

"WHAT ARE YOU? GET AWAY FROM ME!" she shouted, and backed up. She accidentally bumped into Kagome. Kagome woke up.

"What's going-" Kagome stopped as she saw the frightened girl. "What's the matter?" she asked her. Kay, noticing this was a human, felt some warmth there. She stared at Inuyasha. Inuyasha looked startled.

"Him." She said. Then Kagome understood. Kay was not from this time period. She did not know of Demons… or Half Demons for that matter.

"Don't worry about him. He won't hurt you." Kagome said. She glared at Inuyasha. "Why did you frighten her?" she asked, beckoning to the girl. She came over to Kagome, curling up beside her. Kagome stoked the girl's hair.

"I didn't… I mean… I!" Inuyasha could not think of anything to say.

"Now… what happened." Kagome asked. Inuyasha looked skeptical, but told the whole story. "Oh. Now I get it." By this time, Kay didn't look so frightened, but didn't go near Inuyasha. Kagome stood, leaving Kay sitting on the ground. "Well now that we have things cleared up, I will get some fire wood." With that, Kagome left, leaving the only two awake staring at each other. Inuyasha grinned at her.

"Boo!" he said, raising his palms.

"AAHHH!" Kay screamed, and hid behind Kirara. Inuyasha sighed.

"Oh come on! I wont hurt you or anything!" He said. "I didn't mean it!" Kay peeked out from behind Kirara. Inuyasha was sitting down cross legged facing Kirara. Kay glanced at the horizon. It was still a little dark out, but the first rays of the sun had brightened up the place.

"Why…" Kay moved out from behind Kirara. "Why are these woods named after you?" she asked, curiosity finally gaining over fear. Inuyasha laughed.

"That's a long story." He said. Kay glanced around.

"I have time." She said. Inuyasha looked into her green eyes. She's kind of cute for a four year old. He thought. He then proceeded in telling Kay about his life. In between, Sango, and Miroku had woken up, and Kagome had come back from the fire wood. By now… Kay was leaning on Inuyasha, totally absorbed in his story. Sango and Miroku were surprised at how affectionate Inuyasha was being to the four year old. Kagome on the other hand, knew better. She knew before long Inuyasha would grow to like Kay. Kay was small, cute, and not from this world. She was terrified of practically everything she did not know of. How could Inuyasha be mean to someone like that? Especially one so scared. After Inuyasha was done, Kay sighed.

"You have been on a lot of adventures!" she concluded. Inuyasha laughed at her hopeful face. Then, Shippo decided to wake up. He did so, and stared at Kay. Kay stiffened, then hid behind Inuyasha. Inuyasha glanced behind him, and saw fear in those green eyes.

"Its all right." Inuyasha said in a warm voice. "He won't hurt you." Shippo rubbed his eyes, as Kay came out of her hiding place. She trusted Inuyasha now, and would believe in almost anything he said. Shippo stared at her again.

"Hi." He said awkwardly. "I'm Shippo."

"My names Kay." She said.

"How did you get here? Where did you come from?" Shippo asked all of the questions the rest wanted to know. Kay frowned.

"Well. My sister an I had been moved to a new orphanage. Our dad had left us when my sister was born, and mom died when I was born." She started. "The new manager of the orphanage was Grenwell. He was a horrible man. He made us do hard work, with little to eat. One day, Brooky, my sister, got on Grenwell's nerves. He got mad, and ordered us to do extra work. All my sister wanted was a little free time were she didn't have to work. She had asked on behalf of the whole orphanage. We fled. Grenwell found out and sent two people after us. We ran into an ally way, and Brooky pushed me into a hidden hole. She told me to wait, and she would come back for me. I went in a little further, telling her there was enough room for both of us, but she didn't listen. I sat there, until I found another hole. I accidentally fell in, and here I am now." Kay said. She started crying. "I miss Brooky." She sobbed. Inuyasha scooped her up, and held her close.

"It's ok. We will find your sister. Its ok." He whispered. Shippo was amazed at how Inuyasha cared for the child. He got over it quickly. She was to cute to be mean too. Kay fell asleep in Inuyasha's arms. He set her down gently.

"Inuyasha." Kagome said. "We need to talk." Kagome pulled Inuyasha away from the rest. "Inuyasha." She said again. "I know this may sound crazy, but I think we should stay here for a few more days. I mean… what about her sister also finds the hole and lands here, but we are all ready gone. That would be horrible for both of them. Inuyasha considered it.

"Your right." He said, thinking of Kay. "Your absolutely right. But when we find her sister… then what?" Kagome thought it over.

"Depending on how old Kay's sister is, we could look after them. Naraku is almost destroyed. All we have to do is find him and finish him off. Then we could take care of them." She said. Inuyasha looked into her eyes, then hugged Kagome.

"Thanks for not making fun of me Kagome. I'm sure Shippo will be all over about it." Inuyasha said. Kagome was surprised by the gesture, but returned it.

"Inuyasha… I love you." Kagome said.

"I love you too Kagome." Inuyasha replied. They stopped hugging, and went back to camp.

A day later, another flash of light had appeared. A girl about the age of seven had appeared this time. She had on a black tank top and baggy cargo pants.

"BROOKY!" Kay screamed, and ran over to her. "She is here!" Inuyasha smiled at Kay, glad that she was happy. He glanced at Kagome, and he could tell she was happier too. If 'Brooky' was really seven, then Kagome and Inuyasha could go on with their plan. Suddenly, both girls started to change rapidly. Brooky's hair had turned from black to silver, and she had formed wolf fangs, nails, ears, and tail. Kay, however, stayed mostly the same except for the fact that she had dog fangs, nails, and black dog ears.

"What happened?" Inuyasha gasped. Kay felt her ears and fangs.

"What…what happened!" she cried. She saw Brooky still unconscious on the ground completely changed. "Brooky." She whispered. Inuyasha looked at Kay. She was even cuter than before with her dog ears, but now, he realized, was not the time to be thinking about what he thought about Kay. Shippo ran over to Kay first. "What happened?" she said again. Shippo shook his head.

"I don't know." He said bewildered. Inuyasha then came up beside Shippo.

"Inuyasha." Kay said, and sobbed onto his shirt. He sat her down and stroked her hair, making sure to not avoid the ears. Avoiding would give her the idea that he did not like them, and he did not want that.

"Shhhhh. Kay. It's all right. Just look at me!" Inuyasha said. Kay did look up at him. She smiled, and whipped her eyes. She touched his dog ears, and then her own.

"We are alike." She whispered. Inuyasha nodded.

"Yes, we are." He said.

"I'm tired." She said, and went beside her sister to sleep. Inuyasha sighed, thanking anyone he could think of that Kay could see it as a good thing. Everyone was relived that Kay didn't take it to hard. They had all grown to love her, but none more so than Inuyasha. What about Brooky? Will she like me or Kagome as much as Kay does? He thought. We'll have to wait and see.

It was around the next day that Brooky woke up. At the time, Kay was playing with Shippo, as Inuyasha watched. Brooky sat up, and groaned.

"BROOKY!" Kay screamed, and ran to her sister. Brooky took one look at Inuyasha and Shippo, and screamed. She held Kay close to her.

"Don't look at them Kay. They aren't from this world!" Brooky said, practically crushing her sister in a hug.

"Bufh Bwoofy! Thef Frwinfs!" Kay said. (A/N that translates to: "But Brooky! Their Friends!" But Brooky didn't know this.) Brooky held Kay closer.

"Its all right, I wont let them hurt you." She said to Kay.

"Just a minute now! We wont hurt you!" Inuyasha said. Brooky rolled her eyes.

"Rrriiiggghhhttt." She said. Kay started squirming, then finally got out of Brooky's grasp. She ran over to Inuyasha.

"Brook!" she said, using her sisters real name. "They are friends I made while you were gone!" Brook stared at Kay, noticing that she used her real name, and that she looked like Inuyasha. Kay only called her this when she was serious. Brook sighed.

"All right Kay. I'll believe you… but where are we?" Brook asked. Kagome quickly answered all of her questions, and explained about the jewel shards. "Ok." Brook said after she was done. She glanced at her sister, who was leaning on Inuyasha, playing with his hair. "Who are you then?"

"I'm Kagome."

"Sango."

"Miroku."

"Shippo!"

"And I'm Inuyasha." He said.

"Can you answer me one more question?" Brook asked. Kagome nodded. "Why did I change like this?" Kagome shrugged.

"I'm not sure." She said. "That's never happened before, of course, I'm the only one who ever comes here from the future. Come to think of it, what year were you two from?"

"2700." Brook answered. Kagome shrugged again.

"Well its no use trying to use the well." She said. "It only transports you to 2005 and when ever 2005 changes, then the well changes to match 2005." (A/N: I don't know what time period Kagome is from so lets just pretend eh? Oh and, Kinda newish with all this Inuyasha stuff, so I just made up the part about the well... ) "I'm sure they have something for every year though?" she looked at Inuyasha, who shrugged.

"We should get moving tomorrow." Inuyasha said. They all nodded but Kay and Brook.

"Were will we go?" Brook asked. Kagome looked sideways at Inuyasha.

"I want to go with Inuyasha!" Kay said at once.

"You should come!" Inuyasha said, jumping at his chance. "Not many people accept the fact that Kagome is from the future, but seeing as we do, you should come with us!" Kay giggled with delight, but Brook was a little concerned.

"But will it be safe?" she asked. Inuyasha thought about it, but Miroku cut in.

"Don't worry, one of us will be with you two while the fighting begins. That will probably be Kagome, possibly Sango." He said. Brook nodded.

"All right then. We'll come." She said.

"YAY!" Kay said, and started bouncing on Inuyasha's lap. Inuyasha didn't seem to mind.

"Right, well, do we have anything to eat?" Brook asked. And they all sat down to eat.

YamiYugiMot0: Isn't Kay cute? Don't ask me HOW I thought of that name… it just suddenly popped up in my head! shrug All well. Please review!
