Chapter 1

Kagome sighed. She couldn't help how she was feeling. It was the night before her birthday. Yet she still couldn't shake the feeling of the dream she had the night before. Here she was lying in her bed not wanting to sleep. She rather not sleep becasue of that dream. She always kept dreaming of a person. A person that looked like her but she was not her! She was always holding onto this giant boomerang looking thing and flung it about.

She alwyas had a dream about this girl. This girl was always chasing after someone... This someone looked human but from the girl's reactions in the dream, she knew he was not somehow. She always saw images of them but never no words. Just saw the scene without the noises. It frustrated Kagome to no ends. Finally sleep grabbed a hold of Kagome and she fell deep into sleep.

Kagome was startled to hear weapons clinking against each other... All she saw was darkness... Then a rush of light came to her and she was standing there watching the girl again...

"Miroku! I'll KILL YOU THIS TIME!"

The boy grunted with a smirk upon his face. "Yeah you just try it Kikyo! You have failed many times before! The jewel Sango carries WILL be mine!"

"I'll never allow you to have the Shikon No Tama!" Kikyo screamed at him. She then flung her Boomerang at the boy. "Hiraikotsu!"

Miroku dodged it with ease. "I am a full fledged demon! You think that thing is going to get at me easily?" He laughed evilly.

"Then why do you need the jewel of four souls for then? HUH?" Kikyo asked while catching her weapon.

"To make me become stronger of course! I'll even use it to make do evil things with. I'll make our world suffer."

"You'll never do it! I'll kill you even if it kills me in the process! HIRAIKOTSU!" The weapon looked like it had sprung back into life. It charged at the demon and hit him this time.

This caught the demon off guard. He seemed to have flung back quite a few feet. He looked up to see the demon slayer in front of him charging her sword into his heart. Before that could happen he kicked her back a few feet. "I have seemed to have underestimated you, Kikyo."

Kikyo was already back up on her feet. "YEAH! I'll still make sure you think of that!" Then she charged at him once more.

Then a sizzling feeling took away Miroku. He looked to his left shoulder to see a purifying arrow had struck him. "Damn..." He looked to see the Priestess. "So you have finally brought me jewel now did you Sango?" He was now grinning. "Or maybe did you leave it in the hands of your brother? If he is as any good you are, he'll be a great Monk. Ahahaha."

"You leave my brother, Kohaku out of this!" She then flung another arrow at him.

He dodged it with ease. "Sango dear. You and Kikyo will go down quickly!" He then started charging towars the Miko. Only to hit Kikyo's bommerang barrier she threw up at the last second. Kikyo the had her sword in hand and stabbed the demon. Mioku wobbled back sme to regain his compsure.

Kikyo then flung the Hiraikotsu at him and while he was in midair Sango shot her sacred arrow at him and he was flung into the Sacred Tree. Miroku opened his eyes at that moment. "It looks like our plan finally to subdue you worked. Now Sango the last arrow!"

Sango charged it up and readied her shot. This arrow was the arrow of sealing. It would make Miroku sleep forever... Then all of a sudden Miroku knew and at his last attempt to take one of the girls with him to Hell was replaced with revenged needed to be. "DIE!" He screamed before flinging his unsheathed sword at someone. It had Demonic powers within and it was taking someone's life that day.

Kikyo saw the sword headed towards Sango's direction. She threw herself in front of the sword and fell to the ground hwen she was hit. By that time Sango let go of the arrow hoping Kikyo was alright the whole time. The arrow hit its mark and Miroku could only smirk. Then he went to sleep. "Kikyo!" Sango went down to her level.

"Don't worry about mee..." Sango saw blood.

"No I've got to get you to the village!"

"No Sango. I have a request."

Sango looked at her dear friend. They were still young. Kikyo could make it. "What is it Dear Kikyo?"

Kikyo could only smile. "If I die before you, or today... You must take the jewel and burn it with my body. It will rid you of the jewel's existence and I'll happy that you don't have to worry over that stupid jewel anymore."

"Kikyo, you'll survive! I promise you that! YOU WILL SRUVIVE!"

Kagome was thrust awake by the loud sound of her alarm clock going off. Her heart was fluttering in every direction possible. Then she saw a light and looked down to see something glowing from within her right side. Kagome lifted up her shirt to see better but all she saw was her glowing flesh. Okay werid WEIRD WERID! Crazy dream! Crazy being woken up! OH MY GOSH! I'LL BE LATE FOR SCHOOL IF I DON'T GET OUT OF BED! Kagome had looked to her clock while she was thinking. It then registered with her that she might want to start getting ready... She quickly got up and shot towards the direction of her bathroom was and got ready.

An hour later she came down the stairs. She picked up a piece of toast. "I'm off to school! Bye Mom! Love you! Bye Gramps! I'll see you when I get back!" Then she dashed out of the kitchen. She put on her shoes and grabbed her backpack and ran outside.

"Hey Kagome!"

Kagome stopped in her tracks and looked at her brother. "Souta, what are you doing?"

"Buyo went down into the Well House!"

"He'll come back up! Besides you shouldn't be over there! I bet you opened up the door and he walzted right on in! You shouldn't even be near the door to the Well house anyway!"

"But Kagome... Could you just... Make sure that Buyo is down there?"

Kagome rolled her eyes at this point. "Souta I don't have time for this!"

"Please?" Souta asked frantically.

Kagome sighed and walked towards her brother. She took her backpack and set it on the ground next to him. "You owe me BIG time Souta!"

"I know I know!" Souta pouted.

Kagome huffed and walked down the stairs. She spotted Buyo right away. "See here he is!" She said while picking him up.

"Well thank goodness!" Souta brightened up immediately. Kagome started walking towards his direction but then the doors that sealed the Well shut flew open and hands grabed Kagome. "SIS LOOK OUT!" Souta tried calling to her but it was too late.

Kagome dropped Buyo because all of a sudden she was being dragged backwards and it startled her. She heard Souta try to call out for her but she didn't hear him. Then she was surrounded by a blue light and she was being turned to face this ugly monster...

"Give me the Scared Jewel!"

"What are you talking about?" Kagome asked confused.

"Give me the Scared Jewel!"

Scared Jewel? "I don't have it!" Kagome yelled at the monster.

"You do have it! It's giving me my strength back! NOW GIVE ME THE JEWEL GIRL!" The demon put its face close to Kagome's and licked he cheek.

Kagome grossed out by the sudden tongue action going on her cheek, she pushed herself away from the demon's grasp some and yelled back at it while flinging her hand in its face, "LET ME GO FREAK!" Then a light shot out and stunned the demon and it was flown back from her and Kagome was now back into the well.

"Um yeah that was totally inconvenient." Kagome looked around. There was nothing in the well with her. She let out a sigh. She looked up to see... "The Sky? But..." Kagome grabbed a vine and started pulling herself up and out and over the Well. It took her a minute but she got there. The scenery layed before her was beautiful. "Well Toto, We aren't in Tokyo no more."

Kagome looked around the area. She seemed to have regonized the place. So she walked the way she thought and knew to be the way. She came upon a sort of a clearing and saw... She gasped. "It's that guy in my dreams..." Kagome whispered. She felt as if a flashback was coming upon her and she allowed it to take her.

"Miroku. Why do you play these games? You're a jerk for one minute then a sweetheart the next?"

Miroku looked at Kikyo. "I just can't help myself. Maybe I'll really take the jewel from you girls one day but not today."

Sango giggled. "So what day will it be then? You like us both! You know it!"

"I most certainly do not." Miroku smiled back.

"It doesn't matter. I still hate him, Sango. I hate him with my whole being."

"Why Kikyo?" Sango looked disappointed in her friend.

"We shouldn't even allow him close to the village! NOR IN IT! There's just something about him that we should be on alert about!" And with that she walked off.

Kagome then awoke from her daydream. She looked around her. Lost in her thoughts once more. But I thought that they hated each other? That... He had come to the village as another demon? but... She heard and felt the whirling sensations of an object going past her face. She looked up to see... "Sango?" Kagome couldn't believe her eyes. She blinked a few times but there she was in fornt of her.

"WHO ARE YOU?" Sango stated loudly.

"Um... My name's Kagome." She responded a little scared of the other girl's angered face.

Sango notched another arrow and was pointing it directly at her this time. "Where have you come from? You wear such strange clothes!"

Kagome looked down at her school uniform then back up at Sango. "Um. I come from a big city called Tokyo!"

Sango didn't know to trust the girl or not. So she inched her way closer to gasp only herself. "What was your name again girl?"

"I'm Kagome." She firmly stated.

Sango shook her head. "You look so much like my friend..."

Kagome wondered..."Do you mean... Kikyo?"

Sango snapped her head back up and her bow and arrow was once again raised up at the girl. "How do you know of Kikyo?"

Kagome sighed. This way going to be a long story if only she could get the girl to trust her. "Sango, allow me to explain but your weapon has got to come down."

Sango glared at the girl. "How do you even know my name?"

Kagome shook her head knowing she just doomed her fate a little bit mmore then meant to... Then an idea came springing into her head. She then looked up towards Sango with much confidence. "Because I am the reincarnation of Kikyo." Kagome has always believed that she felt that way after the dream plauged her for the first two weeks she had them.

Sango felt confused and frustrated. Could the girl be telling the truth? The resemblse is remarkable but... "PROVE IT TO ME!"

"Well..." Kagome wanted to tell her then she... DING! "I just had a daydream about the time you and Kikyo were talking to Miroku. Kikyo never trusted the guy and hated him! She told you that after you guys had been discussing when Miroku planned on taking the jewel for himself and how he liked the both of you!"

Sango caved in a little. "That was the day Miroku did try to take the jewel from us... Kikyo was right but it still felt... Different." Sango teary eyed dropped her weapons and Kagome walked towards the girl and held Sango. Sango cried into Kagome's arms for quite sometime.

"Okay allow me to take you to the village then. We have a lot to talk about you and I." Sango smiled.

Kagome nodded her head. Hopefully this talk would go good and she would get some questions answered.

She followed the Priestess. They made it to the village unharmed. They walked upon a young girl throwing around a weapon and hitting some targets with ease. "You're doing great that Kaede. Your Kusarigama looks like it's hitting the targets better then ever!"

"Well I was this good up until a year ago! I still can't beileve that incident! Oh well but hey I'm doing better now! That's how Kikyo would have wanted." After Kaede finished her sentence she looked to the girl that was on Sango's left hand side and dropped her weapon with her mouth hanging open.

Sango knew the girl would react this way. It had only been 10 years ago when Kikyo died. Kaede then ran towards Kagome.

"SISTER KIKYO! I THOUGHT! BUT!" Kaede started to sob into Kagome's arms. Kaede didn't even notice the strange clothes upon the girl.

Kagome felt so heartbroken. She had no idea why but here she was holding Kikyo's little sister in her arms. Should she say something? Then she heard Sango clear her throat.

"Kaede! That isn't Kikyo!"

Kaede ceased her crying and looked up into Kagome's eyes. Then she looked towards Sango with anger. "How could you say such a thing?"

"Her name is Kagome. She isn't Kikyo. She's... Kikyo's reincarnation."

Kaede then backed up from the girl and REALLY looked at her. With a sigh Kaede looked deafeated. She shot her head back up with a more determined smile. "Well." She seemed to approach Kagome shyly this time. "Would you mind being my big sister then?"

Kagome blushed. She didn't know why she did but she did. "Sure.." Was all she could manage out.

Kaede squealed and hugged her newly found big sister. Kagome hugged her back with a smile on her face.

"Well then Kagome. Lets go to my hut to talk." Kagome nodded her head and followed Sango. Once in the hut Sango sat down and had Kagome seat next to her. "So how did you get here?"

Kagome looked thoughtful for a minute then slowly started to talk about it. "I was at home. My little brother made me go into our well house and get our cat named Buyo. Then this monster thing attacked me and dragged me into the well. A light came from with inside of me and a pushed the monster with this power and away from me.

Then I ended up crawling out of the well and found myself here. I was looking at Miroku and had a flashback of what I told you. Before this though I had been having dreams about how Kikyo and Miroku fought all the time. I saw you once or twice, or your brother was with you sometimes. I'd see Kaede at times too with Kikyo. I feel like I'm seeing memories from Kikyo. I just don't undrstand though."

Sango nodded her head. She then noticed a light coming from the girl's side. "Kagome lift up your shirt."

"Oh Sango I've tried that. Actually this morning I did and all I saw was my glowing flesh." Kagome lifted up the shirt anyway.

Sango gasped. "No it couldn't be." Sango shook her head.

"What is it?" Kagome was afarid to ask.

"It is the Jewel. The jewel that I laid upon Kikyo so she could take it with her to the other world. You really are her reincarnation. To bring back the jewel... We must get you home. The well is what brought you here isn't it?"

"Yes."

"Then through the Well we'll send you back. The jewel must not become active into this world!"

Kagome nodded her head. "Well I did want to know a few things before I went back home."

"Well what is it then?"

"Well I thought that Miroku had came to the village to steal the jewel and you and Kikyo got into a firece battle, but that you three knew each other and actually talked some..."

Sango weakly smiled. "Yes I had fallen in love with Miroku. Miroku did not share those feelings with me though. He loved Kikyo greatly. She never returned his feelings towards him though. One day a half demon named Inuyasha came into the village seeking the jewel. She had fallen in love with that boy. Miroku and Inuyasha would fight for her attention but Inuyasha always won.

I told Miroku of my feelings for him but he said that he was in love with Kikyo and he wouldn't ever lead me on and left me. I tried so many times to make him love me but he would alwyas say the same. It was sweet but I always forced myself to be near him so he had no chance of not ignoring me and actually talk to me. Sadly Miroku had had enough of Kikyo's love interest and he attacked the village. It upset Kikyo greatly and we were forced into a battle with him.

He had made sure that Inuyasha was away that day. I'm not sure what made Miroku do this but I think he lost all control. I took him lighty at first because I loved him. Kikyo didn't though. Kikyo made the first move. She knew it would hurt me but it had to be done. In the end I felt horrible the day she died. If I would have attacked sooner... I think that I would have... I would have been able to save or from dying that day."

Sango looked like she was far off into another world. Kagome shook her head. It made sense now. Sango loved Miroku. Mirokue didn't return the feelings. Kikyo never returned Miroku's feelings while she lovd this Inuyasha person. As if the trigger of hearing Inuyasha's name Kagome was flung back into yet another memory...

"Kikyo I love you. I wish to be by your side and always. Today I plan on going to my Brother and telling him that I'm leaving the house! I plan on coming back here to you and I'm going to be the one to always protect you. For now I must go and tell Sesshomaru that I don't ever plan on coming back!" He kissed Kikyo deeply with passion.

Kikyo was doing a squealing noise and some type of dance in her head. After Inuyasha finished kissing her she looked up into his Amber colored eyes. "Oh Inuyasha! I love you as well! I'm so happy that you think of me as I have thought of you! I can't wait for us to start a happy life!"

Inuyasha smiled at this. "Then I shall be back!"

Kikyo waved to Inuyasha as he bounded and leaped through the forest. Kikyo sighed happily and made her way back to the village.

"Kagome?"

Kagome looked towards Sango's direction. "Uh, yeah?"

"You looked like you were worlds away. Where did you go?"

"I had another memory flooding through me. As soon as I thought of the word Inuyasha, I saw a scene were Kikyo and Inuyasha had admitted their love for one another!" Kagome blushed. She felt as if she was somehow telling on Kikyo.

Sango smiled though. "I knew that they were always in love, but just to hear you say it makes me happier. Yet it also makes me sad. When Inuyasha came to Kikyo she was dying. I was trying my hardest to make her live but I just couldn't get her to come back to life life. As soon as Inuyasha walked through the door she fluttered her eyes open and they talked and then Kikyo died. It seemed as if she was waiting for him. It was so tragic... Inuyasha... He was so heartbroken."

Kagome couldn't help but feel sorry for Inuyasha. She hadn't known him but he seemed to be sweet. "Well that's that. I better get my way home. I don't want to cause any more grief or pain!" Kagome got up and was headed out the door. When she was stopped.

"Kagome you're welcome to stay here for the night. We can talk more. You don't have to go."

Kagome looked at Sango. Sango looked like she didn't want her to leave. Kagome smiled at the girl. "I'll stay then." Kagome said cheerfully.

Sango smiled. "That's good news then! Kaede will be happy! You can meet my brother Kohaku! And... We can have some girl talk?"

Kagome smiled at all of it. "No problem Sango."

Sango and Kagome talked for hours. Sango got Kagome into Kikyo's demon slayer outfit. Sango had kept it. Kagome looked exactly like Kikyo did... It was a shame the girl had to leave to go back to her time. Kagome explained the whole difference between her world and Sango's world. It was really different alright. They figured out that Kagome was from the future. Which struck Sango as strange but then again, it makes sense right?

Night time had fallen upon them. Kagome fell asleep wearing Kikyo's demon slayer outfit still. Kagome's dreams become vivid and to the extreme. All of Kikyo's memories from her being a child up until the day she died was let loose upon Kagome's mind. She didn't know it but the jewel was showing her the memories of her past.

Sango woken up to a power being known to itself. She looked over to see Kagome was moving about and muttering some things and that her side was glowing like it did when she had the memories invade her mind... Maybe the jewel is showing her yet another memory. I wonder if the jewel is trying to make her remember her past life for some odd reason... I'll have to ask her about it later.

Being thrown out of her thoughts she heard bells ringning throughout the village. She grabbed her bow and arrows. Kagome had woken up sue to the fact that her memories ended. Then the sound of bells reached her ears and movements from inside the hut made her look up. She saw Sango grabbing her weapons.

"Hey Sango what's happening?"

Sango startled a bit looked over towards Kagome. "I think the village is being underattack!" Sango then walked outside. She saw Kaede and Kohaku fighting against the demon. Why were they already outside? I don't know but I'll have to scold them later. Sango notched her arrow and flung it at the demon.

"Hey Sango. That was the demon that attacked me earlier today."

Sango looked at Kagome. "Really?"

"Where's the jewel? GIVE IT TO ME!" The centipede demon yelled.

Sango looked at Kagome. "So it is after the jewel and that means that really is the Shikon No Tama you are carrying! You must go back to your own time! We can't allow the jewel to become into this world!" With that she pushed Kagome towards the forest.

Kagome nodded. "Okay I'll go! Just take care of yourself!" Then she ran.
