Naraku stood there with the shikon jewel in his hands, laughing at the futile attempt Inuyasha was making to kill him. The jewel was glowing black, tainted with malice, and was continuing to become darker with each stroke Naraku place on it.
Inuyasha tried to use the Wind Scar but it was useless, just as the others had been. Suddenly an arrow shot through the clearing and pierced the Shikon Jewel, causing it to shatter, just like it had done two years ago.

Kagome sat by the edge of a lake, taking in her surroundings. Ever since that day she had learned to become more cautious, especially with out Inuyasha there to protect her.
The group fell apart after the jewel was shattered again, each member blaming themselves for the incident. Kagome had tried to get back to her time, but the well would not permit her to leave the era. So she did the only logical thing, she ran, she ran till she was in pain, and thought she was going to die.
She had woken up to growling, that sounded familiar, almost like Inuyasha's. She willed herself to open her eyes, hoping that it had all been a dream and that Inuyasha was mad at her for something stupid, but she knew better, and kept her eyes shut. When the growling had become louder, she snapped her eye's open. Blue eyes met grey ones, thus beginning a new friendship, that would carry on for a year.
Kagome jumped when she felt someone pick her up, and instinctively wrapped her arms around the culprit's neck.
"Jeez, Hiroki, don't scare me like that!" She exclaimed playfully slapping his chest.
"It's too amusing to see the look on your face though," the black haired dog demon replied in a deep soothing voice.
"I'm sure- a shikon shard is approaching!" she said looking eastward.
Hiroki put her down, and took off, with her following. He came to a halt in a clearing, seeing a large centipede. He unsheathed his sword, and got in a fighting stance.
Just as he was about to attack he heard someone yell "Wind Scar" followed by a mass of energy hitting the tail of the centipede. An inu hanyou came through the trees soon after and readied himself for another attack.
Hiroki snapped out of shock and attacked.
"Phoenix Fire!" he shouted as he brought his sword down, successfully severing the centipede in half, but not killing it.
"Kagome shoot!" he called back to her, and noticed the inu hanyou's head turn, a look of shock on his face.
An arrow whizzed passed his face and hit the centipede in the forehead, purifying it. Kagome ran through the trees and stopped by Hiroki's side starring up at him.
"K-Kagome?" her head turned to the direction the voice had come from, her breathing stopped, and she passed out.
