The Moon, The Stars
Summary: For Kagome, time travel had become normal. But traveling to a time when Inu No Taisho and Lady Kimiko, the parents of Sesshomaru and father of InuYasha, were children? And turning into a child herself? Not normal.
I do not own InuYasha, though I do own my Original Characters.
Chapter 1) Three Years Old
Kagome ran through the forest, hearing the cruel laughter of the strange woman that was chasing her. Izumi had seemed like a friendly enough girl, though a bit strange. It amazed Kagome that the girl she had seen as a friend had turned on her so quickly. She was nearing the well;perhaps she could escape Izumi in her time. A strange orange light hit Kagome from behind as she jumped into the well,hitting her back before she plummetted in and encasing her. The well glowed, fist blue and then a strange green.
Something was wrong!
The first thing Kagome noticed was the shit. She was in a deep hole, filled with feces and other bodily fluids. Shit, corpses, innards, the stuff surrounded her. Next, she was smaller. Her clothes had fallen off her body, so she was also naked. It was cold, and she was dirty. She shuddered, and held her breath as she climbed out. She looked around and began to walk. If she remembered correctly, there was a river not to far away. It'd be cold, but it would get her clean. She finally reached a small shallow creek, and quickly got in. Five dunks and an some scrubbing later and she was clean of all bodily fluids. She immediantly climbed out, and walked alongside it. Hopefully she would find a village soon.
"Child, what happened to your clothes?"
Kagome stopped and turned. The woman looked about 17 years old, with long brown hair with orange tips and emerald green eyes with slitted pupils. On top of her head were cat ears, and she wore a simple green kimono.
"They fell off." Kagome said simply. "I am Kagome, who are you?"
The woman smiled. "I am Sayuri, a neko hanyou. Where is your family?"
"Not in this world." 'Or rather time. I think I went farther back,not forward.'
Sayuri smiled sadly. "Well Kagome-chan, I live in a village not far from here, would you like to come with me?"
Kagome nodded, figuring she had nothing better to do. She had to find a way home, and a way back to her true age of 15.
Sayuri turned out to be a very friendly woman. Her father was a human, while her mother was a cat. She herself had a son, a 4 year old boy named Hayate and a full human half brother named Shiro.
The village turned out to be a ninja village, and Kagome was given clothes. She looked in the mirror.
'I look about 2, maybe 3 years means I have 12, 13 years missing.'
"So Kagome, this is my son Hayate and my brother Shiro."
Shiro looked alot like Sango, but like a male version of Sango. 'Must be an ancestor.' Hayate looked like his mom, but with darker hair and red tips instead of orange. His eyes were orange as well,not green.
Shiro looked at the girl. "You are an orphan, correct?"
"Yes and no." Kagome said. "I must find my way home."
"Your way home?"
"Yes..I come from a far away land. My sister was killed by a cruel man, while my other sister was turned into an old lady due to that same man. I, like my sisters, am a priestess. I was supposed to begin my training, but a woman I thought was my friend cast a spell on me that caused me to reappear in a pile of human feces, far from my dear ones. My family still lives, but I must find my way home and too my original age."
"Original age?" Sayuri asked.
"I'm 15, though I look about 2 or 3."
"Well, let's see what we can do."
They found a priestess, and they discovered that Kagome would have to age normally. Also that she would find her way home when she needed to be home. The priestess, whose name was Mei, offered to train Kagome. The ninja also made it clear that they'd be training her too.
So life began.
