Hello everyone, so heres a new story from me and LadySongbird16. We have been planning it for years and are really excited about it. We hope you all like it and if you have the time please leave a review.
Disclaimer: This will only be written once, I do not own Inuyasha or Naruto. I only own the situations and am using the characters for fun.
Chapter 1
The Feudal Era, After Naraku's Defeat
Three demons, one a great dog demon and the lord of the western lands; another the young leader of the eastern wolf demon tribe, and the last an elderly swordsmith, stand in the forest staring at a glowing purple jewel. There is a small imp standing not too far behind the dog demon, and a small flee demon on the swordsmith's shoulder.
All of them know well enough though that this is no ordinary jewel. No, this centuries old jewel could grant anyone who possesses it great power. This jewel had caused battles between human and demons for over 200 years; that was the reason it was created.
A priestess with strong sacred powers created this jewel when she merged her soul with the soul of the "Demon of all Demons." Then another priestess, whose duty was to keep the jewel purified and protected shared her final breath with it. Now her reincarnation, a young girl, from another era, the girl born with the jewel inside her, the one who shattered it and helped put it back together, sits not too far from them. Her knees are tugged up to her chest, and she rests her head on top of them. A young fox demon and a small cat demon sit by her trying to console her, but it is clear they can't ease her pain.
"She's been that way for over an hour now," Sesshōmaru commented.
"What do you expect?" Kōga asked angrily. "Inuyasha is dead. I never liked the guy, but Kagome loved him, and it was clearly mutual. Now she's sitting over there heartbroken and you stand there looking like you don't even care that your own brother was killed!"
"How dare you insult Lord Sesshōmaru," Jaken said stepping forward.
"Why you!" Kōga snarled.
"Enough, all of you," the elderly Tōtōsai said. "The young priestess has lost her lover and it is indeed a tragedy. Inuyasha will without a doubt be missed, but we have a bigger matter at hand."
The three demons looked at the still glowing purple jewel.
"This jewel cannot fall into another demon's hands," Sesshōmaru declared.
"Lord Sesshōmaru is right," Tōtōsai stated. "We can't have another demon attempting all that Naraku did."
"I think it should stay with Kagome," Kōga stated. "It did come from her after all."
"Yes, the jewel did come from the girl," Tōtōsai confirmed. "And she is the only one who can keep it purified."
"Indeed, Kagome can use the jewel to make a wish," Myōga stated. "Although I don't think now would be the right time to bring it up to her. She is clearly inconsolable right now; it looks like Shippō and Kilala can't do much to help her, and Sango and Miroku were sent back to Lady Kaede's, so she's short on comfort."
"One way or another the girl is going to have to get over it," Sesshōmaru stated.
"Will you shut up already," Kōga snarled. "Clearly you don't understand what she's going through."
"Yes, the Shikon jewel has put her through a lot," Tōtōsai said. "It has also been the cause of the wars between humans and demons for years."
"What if there's a way to make the girl the final keeper of the Shikon jewel?" Myōga suggested.
"It might work," Kagome said sadly.
The others turned to see her standing up and wiping the tears from her eyes.
"Kagome…" Kōga said.
"Please, Myōga does have a good point and Tōtōsai is right," Kagome said. "I'm currently the only one who can keep the jewel purified; and I'm not about to burden another priestess with it.
"Kagome, are you sure about this?" Shippō asked.
"Yes," Kagome said. "I'm more than willing to be the last protector of the Shikon Jewel. If it can help bring peace to this era somehow then I'll do it."
"Well then, if you must, then make your wish on the jewel," Sesshōmaru said.
Kagome nodded and proceeded to pick up the jewel.
"Shikon jewel," Kagome began. "I'm ready to make my wish."
The jewel began to glow even brighter.
"Shikon Jewel, make me the last keeper of you," Kagome said. "If it will bring peace to this era then let no other priestess have possession of you."
Suddenly the jewel grew brighter and everyone felt like they were being sucked into a hole or portal of some sort. It made Kagome feel so dizzy that she closed her eyes wishing it would stop.
Then she fell. She opened her eyes to see that she was lying on the ground. She pulled herself up off the ground to see that Sesshōmaru, Jaken, Kōga, Shippō, Kilala, Tōtōsai, and Myōga were still there, but it wasn't just them!
Kagome realized several other familiar demons, Jenenji, Hachi, A-Un, Ayame, Ginta, Hakkaku, and they weren't the only ones though. There appeared to be thousands of demons scattered everywhere.
"What happened?" Kagome found herself asking.
"You wished for peace in the feudal era," a deep voice declared.
Kagome and the others realized that the Shikon Jewel, which was still in her hand was speaking. The others gathered around to listen to what the jewel had to say.
"In order to make your wish possible I sent you and all the demons of the feudal era to another dimension. Now they can no longer attack any of the humans in that era."
"Say what now?" Jaken screeched.
"The girl wished for it," the jewel continued. "She also asked that she be the last keeper of me. So I will return into the girl's body and she will soon stop ageing."
"What?!" Kagome yelled.
"This is what you wished for Kagome," the jewel said. "So it will be."
Then the jewel floated right back to Kagome side and disappeared into her body. Everyone could not believe what just happened.
"Great," Kagome said sadly. "Now not only did I lose Inuyasha, but now I can't see him or my family again."
Shippō jumped onto her shoulder, while Kilala nuzzled against her leg, and Kōga placed his hand on his other shoulder in an attempt to comfort her.
"What the hell are we supposed to do now?" Kōga asked.
"I'd think the answer to that should be quite obvious to all of you," Sesshōmaru said coolly. "We move on."
"This is just ridiculous," A toad demon said.
"I agree," another one said. "Let's get out of here."
Several other demons began to talk about the situation and many more began to make their moves to leave.
"Enough," Sesshōmaru said in a voice so loud it could probably be heard in the next country. Then his voice returned to its calm smoothness. "In case any of you haven't realized, we are completely unknown territory. We have no idea what other creatures live here and what they are capable of. If you try going off on your own now you put not only your own lives at risk, but the lives of all of us. Our only hope is to stand together and move along. Only then can we build a new home for all of us, where we can live in peace."
"Lord Sesshōmaru is correct," Tōtōsai said. "If we don't stick together than many of us will surely die."
"I hate to admit it but I agree with the dog as well," Kōga said. "We just ended a war. I'm not about to find another way to get potentially killed."
"Yeah, and if we're going to find a new place to settle in this dimension," Kagome said.
Many demons just nodded and murmured their agreements to each other while many just stayed silent.
"Come," Sesshōmaru said. "If we stay here, we'll never find a new place to settle."
Ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
They all had been walking around for over an hour and still had not found place that seemed suitable for every one of them to settle into. Suddenly they heard a noise and they noticed two humans, they appeared to be battling each other. What surprised them even more was that one of them had red pupils in his eyes.
"That's weird," Kōga remarked. "One has a strange eye color, but both of them definitely smell human."
"Yeah, but there's a something strange about both their auras," Kagome stated. "They're not demonic, but there's something strange about both of them."
"Well, I don't know if I want to stick around to find out," Shippō said.
"Let's keep moving then," Sesshōmaru said.
So they all continued on in a new direction away from the feuding humans.
After about another twenty minutes of walking they saw a body of water ahead, and once they cleared the trees they saw something across the water. It was an island, a rather big one too, it had a several huge mountains, and many trees, which probably meant a lot of forest terrain, and of course it was surrounded by water. It looked like there was a pleasant climate for every type of demon.
"Well, it looks like we've found a place to settle," Tōtōsai stated.
Ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
300 Years Later
Kagome exited the order chambers and made her way to the exit. She couldn't believe three hundred years had passed. Not ageing anymore was still something that she hadn't quite gotten used to, along with the fact that it took a lot more than it used to, to actually damage her. When they found the island a lot had to be done, mainly all the demons building settlements for themselves to live in. One of the first orders of business though was to create an order to help govern the land. Sesshōmaru of course was a member, and Kōga was as well since he was now leader of the wolf demon tribe. Tōtōsai was offered a seat, but he politely refused. So besides the three of them, there were seven other demons, each a different race. It was important that all the species were spoken for, and finding intelligent demons was not so hard considering all the demons who were transferred to this dimension had a level of human intelligence at the least. Which did make sense in a way since that means the unintelligent one were left behind which explained why there were no demons where she was born; they ones left were probably killed off to extinction by the humans.
Not long after everyone was settled in several of them, had begun to observe the strange humans that they encountered the day they were transported to this world. Well, mainly Kagome because she was human and didn't look suspicious like the demons did. They learned the people they saw were ninja, also called shinobi, and they fought with something they called jutsus.
Kagome herself hadn't changed that much since she stopped ageing, only a little physically, her body stopped aging when she hit her mid-twenties. Her hair was longer now, stopping at her mid-back, and her sense of style had changed a lot. She no longer walked around in skirts all the time, in fact she traded them for pants. It hadn't been that hard for her to get new clothes. Almost a century ago the shinobi began claiming land and building their own villages. So she would often go into a village and trade things, like crops and herbs that Jenenji had grown for new clothes. She was currently clothed in a light blue t-shirt with a dark blue zip-up jacket over it, black shorts, and a pair of black sandals that she learned were quite popular among the shinobi.
Today the order had finally come to a decision. They were going to interact with the shinobi and attempt to negotiate peace; everyone was getting tired of the constant hiding. Of course they were sending Kagome since she was a human, and again, much, much, less of a scare factor. They decided that they would send her to Konohagakure, since out of all the villages they observed over the years it seemed the least outwardly hostile.
"Well Kagome," Kōga began. "Are you gonna head out soon?"
"Yes," Kagome replied. "I think I'm going to head back to my house now to gather up some supplies."
"You shouldn't go alone though," a voice said from behind the two.
Both turned to see Sesshōmaru approaching.
"Konohagakure may be the least hostile of all the villages we have observed, but we still don't fully know what the shinobi are capable of," he stated.
The group proceeded out of the building and started walking toward the fork in the path that separated their homes.
"I wasn't planning on that to begin with," Kagome declared. "I'm taking Kilala with me. Now if both of you will excuse me, I'm going to go back to pack some stuff."
So Kagome headed in one direction while Kōga and Sesshōmaru headed in two different direction.
Ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
When Kagome returned to her house she found Jenenji out in garden planting herbs. Before heading inside the house she stopped to tell him what was going on. Her house was down by the ocean, but the land they were on wasn't necessarily beachy, it had lots of grass fertile soil for Jenenji to grow things on; and the fact that the ocean was right there made it very easy for them to fish. She was glad that she choose to live by the ocean. The mountains where Kōga had settled were nice, but she preferred being closer to the ground; and while she thought she should be well used to forests by now, she could never live there like Sesshōmaru did, it made her think too much of the feudal era. She was also able to have a nice house for her and some of her friends. Her house might not have been as big as Sesshōmaru's but it was still pretty big.
It was made of mostly stone and was two stories high. Inside on the first floor was a small dining room area with a long wooden table with six chairs. On the left was a big area with a fireplace against the left wall, and a bed where Jenenji slept. Kagome tried to convince him to have his own room since there were plenty, but he insisted he sleep down stairs. Also on that particular side of the room the view went all the way up to the ceiling of the top floor of the house. To the right of it was the kitchen, of course Kagome was the only one who cooked, but Jenenji grew everything and did most of the fishing so the least she could do was cook; besides, she never stopped enjoying cooking. Right next to the kitchen area was the bathroom. The stairs leading to the second floor were also on the left side of the room.
On the second floor there were four different rooms. First there was Kagome's bedroom, and second was Shippō's bedroom, then there were a few guest rooms, Kilala didn't needed a room. She just wondered around as she pleased, and a library, Kagome had a fondness for books over the centuries.
Anyway, Kagome headed into her house and up to her bedroom to start packing a bag.
"Is that you Kagome?" A familiar tenor voice questioned.
Standing in her doorway was Shippō with Kilala. God, sometimes she still couldn't get used to the fact that he was growing. Sure he only appeared to be in his early teens now, but she still thinks about the small boy with the ribbon she met all those years ago.
"Hey Shippō," Kagome greeted.
"What are you doing?" Shippō asked.
"I'm going to Konohagakure to negotiate peace," Kagome declared.
"By yourself?" Shippō asked.
"No, I'm taking Kilala with me," Kagome replied.
"Oh, why just her?" Shippō asked.
"If something goes wrong I'll need a quick way to escape," Kagome said. "Besides Shippō, are you telling me you'd really leave Jenenji here by himself?"
"No, I guess not," Shippō said a little guiltily.
"I thought not," Kagome stated.
After a few more minutes Kagome had everything she needed packed.
"Alright," she said. "I'm gonna head out. Come on Kilala."
The little cat demon jumped onto Kagome's shoulder.
"Be careful Kagome," Shippō said.
"Don't worry," Kagome said. "I will be."
With that said she and Kilala headed downstairs and out the door.
Ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
Hi so I wanted to clear a couple of things up now that the first chapter is done. For a better idea on what Kagome's house looks like, think of the Halls the Jarls live in in Skyrim. Also LadySongbird16 and I have decided to leave who we eventually pair up Kagome with to our readers. We picked two Inuyasha characters, Sesshomaru and Bankotsu and two Naruto characters, Kakashi and Itachi. To vote please write it in a review or send a PM to me or LadySongbird16.
