Chapter one: Change

Kagome Higurashi, a Japanese sixteen year old, didn't have your normal life. She had raven black hair and dark brown eyes. And she was in love with some one who lived five-hundred years away from her. And he was stuck in a love-hate relationship with some one from 50 years in the past. She could see shards of the Shikon Jewel, the thing that caused her life to go down the well-- literally. Over a year ago she was pulled down the well when retrieving her cat, Buyo. (I can relate-- I have a fat cat now. i love him.) It was a Centipede woman. When Kagome crawled out of the well, she had no idea of her change of fate. She saw her love-- Inuyasha. He was pinned to the Goshiniboku, the sacred tree that connected them forever. Who knows when he would have taken off the tree, had Kagome not released him that day.

It seems she fell in love with his ears first-- It seems everyone does that. Her, Kagome's mom also. Souta, Kagome's brother, as well. Souta sees him as a role model.

From the second Kagome fell down the Bone Eater's Well, Kagome's life changed for the worse-- or the better?

Now, the sixteen year old spent most of her time in Feudal Japan, leaving her family to make excuses as to why she's never home or at school.

This happened to be a time when she was going back to the past.

Kagome sighed and threw her large yellow backpack over the well. She gripped the edge of it and pulled herself up. She took in a deep breath of the fresh, feudal air and smiled softly. Everything was still the same. She picked up the bag and bounded toward the village-- unsuspecting of the change in her life with every step she took. She skidded to a stop, and grinned at Inuyasha. "Hi, Inuyasha! Guess what!" Her face was coated in happiness.

"Feh. What?" Inuyasha said, uninterested. He picked up Kagome's backpack and turned around and started walking to Kaede's hut. He listened to leaves crunch under his feet, and sighed.

"It's spring break! I don't have to go home for a week!" She caught up to Inuyasha, just to pass by him. She turned around.
"A week? You mean I don't have to take you back here for one of your 'tests' any more?" He seemed happy, but he wouldn't let himself show that. He watched Kagome nod, and then he smirked. "Keh, just means we have more time for shard hunting." He'd rebounded as quickly as Kagome could blink.

Kaede stirred some sort of soup, and poured it into bowls, and handed them to the crew. "Ye sure ye want to stay here for ye break? Will ye friends get suspicious?"

Kagome smiled. "Thanks. My mom is telling them all that I'm in Osaka, visiting family. She said to come back when I felt it was time."

"Nn… Kagome? Can I speak to you in private? Maybe a bath?" Sango said, standing up. She was in her normal clothes. She seemed to need to speak to her urgently-- her face showed she was ready to bust.

As the girls made their way to the hot spring, they kept close eye on the forest around them. They finally arrived, and stripped to nothing, then climbed in.

"Ahhh… So, Sango, what is it you'd like to talk about?"

"It's spring."
"I know! I'm excited!" Kagome grinned, and stretched.

"You can see the jewel shards."
"Duh. Sango, what are you getting at here?"
"You're on your period-- You're 'in heat' as some demons want to put it."

"What do you mean, Sango?"
"Kagome, your life could change! You need to take care of yourself. It's mating season!"
Kagome blinked. "You mean… K-Koga … or any other demon in search of the jewel shard, or even some one looking simply for a mate … could…" She felt a fish-- or she hoped-- slither against her foot, and dashed out of the spring, screaming bloody murder.

Kagome arrived back at the hut, crying out Inuyasha's name. He ran out, wide eyed, yelling, "What the hell, wench?! Where are your clothes?" At this, he smacked Miroku's emerging face back, and continued on. "I was almost asleep there, t-- Kagome, what's wrong?" He suddenly became deeply worried.

"I-I don't think it's a good idea," She paused and pulled Inuyasha's shirt over her body, "To stay here." She looked at him and bit her lip.

Instead of getting angry like Inuyasha normally would, he nodded. "I guess that's fine." He sniffed, and growled suddenly. "That bastard…" He said, hiding Kagome behind him. "I knew he would be coming sooner or later."

Out of no where, a brown tornado formed in front of Kagome and Inuyasha. And out of it popped none other than…

"Koga! What are you doing here?" Inuyasha growled.

"I'm claiming my mate. I've waited for more than a year therefore I think she is rightfully mine." Koga said, and stopped. He smirked. "You won't need that." He said, smirking more. "I don't want my woman smelling like my enemy." He threw Inuyasha's haori at him, and picked Kagome up bridal style.

"See you around mutt! …With quite a few more with us." He cackled, if you will, and took off.

Inuyasha desperately tried to catch up, until he saw a few poison bugs. (I fail-- word loss at the moment.)
