Kim: Chapter one! Thank you for your reviews! Okay. After this, it would be nice if I could get AT LEAST 2 reviews! And I'll try to get chapter 2 done and up really soon.
Amber: Haha!
Kim: What?
Amber: You have to run the mile tomorrow!
Kim: Only cause I "Defied" him. Lol. My gym teacher told me to run another lap (even though my time was up and I'd have to run the mile again anyways) and I said no. He was all "Are you defying me?" and I said "Oh, absolutely" and sat down. Anyways…

Chapter 1: The Night Before
The silver haired hanyou sat perched in a tree. It was late at night and everyone was sleeping. InuYasha shifted his gaze from the trees to the moon. 'Ugh, tomorrow night. We need to get back to the village tomorrow!' he thought angrily. He looked at the sleeping miko.
She was curled up in her sleeping back, her arms wrapped protectively around Shippo. Her black jet hair laid down her back. Her bangs hung down, so he couldn't see her face. Miroku slept under the tree branch InuYasha sat on. Far away from Sango, whom slept next to Kagome.
They were a good five miles or so from the village, and hoped to get to it before the sun set the next day. If they traveled a good portion of the day, they could make it there in plenty of time. InuYasha had a hunch that when they got to Kaede's hut, she'd wanna go home, to her own era.
Kagome stirred and broke InuYasha's thoughts. She sat up and looked at the fire. She examined her surroundings, as if she had no idea where she was. She looked up at InuYasha. He turned and stared at the sliver of moon.
"You awake InuYasha? Guess you can't sleep?" she whispered, knowing full well he could hear her.
"No." he whispered back. "You know what tomorrow is right?"
"Huh?" She hadn't expected any further conversation. "Uh, no. Should I know?"
He slowly turned and looked at her. That's when she remembered.
"The night of the New Moon!" they both whispered in unison.
"Sorry. I'm still sleepy," Kagome apologized. She yawned and stretched her arms. I guess you want to go back to Kaede's, huh?"
"You think?" The hanyou was beyond annoyed.
"Well you don't have to get mean about it! And by the way-" she was cut off by InuYasha's really bad impression of her.
"I wanna go home and take some tests." Kagome's face twisted. She shut her eyes and turned her back to him.
"InuYasha, Sit!" she whisper yelled. InuYasha fell from the tall, green oak tree and did a face plant, right next to Miroku. The force on the ground shook it, and woke him from his sleep. "Honestly. I don't know what you have against me going to my own time!"
InuYasha picked himself off the ground and ran over to Kagome's side. "You need to help us find the jewel shards! You can't keep going back whenever you want Let me remind you that-" It was Kagome's turn for a bad impression.
"It was you who broke the jewel in the first place." By now, Miroku and walked over to where Sango and Kirara where standing. They were all watching Kagome and InuYasha. Shippo had been dragged out of the scene by Sango. He was still asleep by her feet.
"We should leave them alone." Miroku whispered to Sango. She nodded and turned on her heels and started walking through the thick forest. Miroku picked up Shippo and followed her, Kirara at his heels.
"Hey! Where are you guys going?" InuYasha called after them.
"You guys need to talk. Come find us when you're done." Miroku called over his shoulder. Kagome watched them until they disappeared.
"I'm going and there is nothing you can do about it." She whispered to her hands which sat neat in her lap.
Inu Yasha let out a 'hmph', and returned to his tree. "Suit yourself. But you've got until the sun sets the next day to return or we leave without you. Then you'll just have to wait till we come back the next time there's a new moon."
"Thank you." Kagome said. "We should probably go find the others."
So they started off in the direction they saw Miroku and Sango head in.
"YOU PERVERT!" A women called.
"That wont be hard" InuYasha mumbled.
Kim: Yay! My first chapter! I'm trying to make it so the characters act like they would normally. I hate reading fanfics where InuYasha is way too caring towards others, or Kikyou is sweet and junk. I'm trying to make them "In Character". So, 3 reviews and I'll give you chapter 3.
