Disclaimer: I do not own InuYasha or Naruto
Summary: Sango and Kagome barely escaped with their lives from the feudal era, after Miroku, Shippou, InuYasha and SesshouMaru died. But when they fell through the well, Rin attached to Kagome's hand and Sango holding Kagome's arm with Kirara on her shoulder, they don't end up in our time, but in a completely different dimension, and suddenly Rin is much older than just 10-12, but rather they are all 16. sorry if the summary sucks…hehe…
Pairings: Kag/Sas San/Gaara Naru/Saku Rin/Ita
A/N: this is the only AN that I'll add, I swear. I just wanted to say that Itachi may be like eight years older than Sasuke in the show, but I'm making him eighteen even though he should be around 24…
Chapter 1: Jumping Into A New Life
A bird sang a song somewhere nearby the old Bone Eater's well, the area silent. Half way through the bird's song, there came a rustle, and it flew off, scared of the sudden motion. Out of the bushes came three figures, all of them running. One was a little girl around 10 years old, and she was attached to the hand of a 16 year old girl, who was running with another girl her age, who was holding onto the middle one's arm.
These three girls were Rin, Kagome and Sango. Rin was the little girl, with long black hair that was currently in a mess, and her dark brown eyes were filled with fear and horror. The one she was holding hands with was Kagome, her long raven black hair that reached her shoulder blades was flying behind her, blood was all over her school uniform that was not hers and her honey brown eyes were filled with tears.
Holding on to Kagome was Sango, who was holding her tears back from falling over her dark brown eyes, her magenta eye shadow seemed to be permanent if you saw her every day. Her long dark brown hair was in a high ponytail and she wore her youkai slayer outfit, her huge boomerang bone named Hiraikotsu was on her back.
They ran towards the well, their only means of escape. Or at least escape for Kagome, they were not sure if their idea would work for Sango and Rin to go through with her if they held on to her. If InuYasha was able to, they were, right? As they reached the well, they heard a noise behind them and Sango turned, blocking an attack from Naraku, who was sending black energy balls at them.
Sango made sure Kirara, her fire cat youkai friend, was on her shoulder. The cat mewed, hissing at Naraku, but did not transform larger, for one being too exhausted and for two she knew that she needed to stay with Sango. Kagome, looking back at the feudal era one last time, jumped. Fallowing was Sango and Rin, Naraku trying to fallow as well.
But as he jumped in, the light engulfed him, and he seemed to be burned, but he did not make it through. Instead, he found himself alone in the well, standing on solid ground, and the three girls and fire cat no where to be seen. He yelled out in frustration, and jumped out, then began to laugh evilly.
That, of course, was the last time that any of the girls would see of the feudal era, but as they appeared on the other side of the well, instead of seeing a roof, they once again found a sky, but it was not night time, but rather sunny. Kagome blinked. "Where's the well house?" she asked to herself. Sango had never been through the well, so she did not know what Kagome spoke of, and neither did Rin.
"Kagome, is something wrong?" Sango asked.
"There should be a roof, not sky. There should also be a ladder so I can get up." Kagome replied, looking around and finding no wooden ladder she could climb up when she got home. "We're not in my time…"
"Kagome?" Sango asked, poking her shoulder. "I think something went wrong."
"Huh?" Kagome asked, turning. She gasped as she looked at where Rin should be, and instead found a girl their age. The girl had long black hair still, but it was in a long braid and her eyes were now slightly more narrow and mature, but the fear and horror of the young Rin was still there, as well as the innocence.
"Rin?" Sango asked.
"Y-yes…?" she whispered, and Kagome gasped.
"The well did something. I think it was because you two came with me. I'm guessing it made Rin this age." Kagome whispered. She looked at Rin's body. It was rather curvy, perfect like Kagome and Sango, and instead of an orange kimono that would obviously be way too small now, there was a black net shirt, with a black tank top underneath, and she wore Capri pants that were red and a sword at her side, held by a red sash.
"It didn't just change her, but your clothing too." Sango said with a raised eyebrow. Kagome looked down to find herself in a black spaghetti strapped tank top and a pair of hakama pants like InuYasha's except black, and in it's sheath was Tetsusaiga, tied to her hip. Both she and Rin wore a pair of black sandals. Sango, however, wore the same thing.
"This is strange…" Kagome whispered, looking up. "I really don't like this."
"Neither do I, but we're not going to find out what's out there if we don't leave this well." Sango replied, and Kagome nodded, looking down at Tetsusaiga. She only wished that InuYasha were here with her, that this was all a dream, that she could argue with InuYasha and later try and pet his cute little doggy ears. She closed her eyes, and then opened them, looking up.
"Let's go…" she whispered and began climbing the cracks of the well, going up slowly, and when she lifted herself over the lid she blinked at what she found. She heard Sango and Rin as they fell to the floor after heaving themselves over the edge and heard them get up beside her, but she did not look away from the sight before her.
"Where are we?" Sango asked. Before them was a huge forest, but they could tell that it was not InuYasha forest. They looked back to the well to find it wasn't there. Kagome stared at the spot where it should have been, and instead found a tree.
"Did the well bring us to a time where it wasn't even built?" Kagome asked herself.
"No, this isn't Japan, nor anywhere else from our world." Sango mumbled, looking around. "Kirara can't smell anything, and I can't feel the presence of a youkai anywhere, and there is something about this air that does not remind me of our own world. Also, this forest, even though this could be a thousand years ago, is not the InuYasha forest or any other forest."
"I think you're right." Kagome said, looking around. "Should we go look for a village?"
"Probably the best idea we can come up with right now…" Sango whispered. Kirara mewed, and Kagome looked down at the Tetsusaiga again, and Rin shivered.
"I miss SesshouMaru-sama…" she whispered, tears coming to her eyes. Kagome turned to Rin, and smiled softly.
"Don't worry, he died protecting you, and besides, now you don't have to deal with his glares and his carelessness." Kagome said with a wink, and Rin smiled softly, but sadly.
"You lost someone, too." She whispered. "You lost InuYasha-sama and Shippou-kun, and Sango-chan lost Miroku-Houshi-sama."
"Rin, can we…" Kagome sighed. "Can we talk about this later?" she asked, looking down. Rin nodded softly.
"Let's go." Sango said, looking around. "I don't like not being able to sense enemies."
"Right," Kagome said, looking suddenly determined. They began walking, and they took in their surroundings, remembering little things and making sure to stay on their guard at all times. About three hours of walking later, they stopped for a rest by a small river, and took a small drink. Rin was humming softly as she splashed her face, washing off the sweat, and Sango slipped off her clothes, diving in.
Kagome smiled softly and took off her own clothes, then jumped into the water.
"Daddy!" 3 year old Kagome called, jumping into a man's arms. She couldn't see his face, it was a blur, but she saw him place down an orange colored book, and saw that her mother was glaring at the book coldly for some reason. Of course, Kagome did not know what the book was, so she thought her mother was being silly. She sat in the man's lap and closed her eyes, listening as her mother talked to the man.
Kagome resurfaced, and blinked. What was that about? The man had been her father, but she couldn't remember his face. She remembered the color of the book easily, but could not remember what was on the cover, and she had never seen a book like that ever again. She sighed as she swam back to shore, getting out of the water and putting her clothes back on.
Sango came out soon afterwards and put her own clothes back on, looking at them in distaste. Kagome giggled. "You want some new clothing, huh?"
"Yeah, it's kinda unfair that you two get cool clothing but I have to wear this old thing." Sango said, huffing. Kagome shrugged.
"Well, we'll some how get new clothes for you." Kagome replied. "There's bound to be a village somewhere around here, and now that the well has disappeared…I don't think that we'll ever be going home."
"I think you're right," Sango replied with a small sigh. She looked down at her hands, the ones that had smacked Miroku so many times, the ones that had been held in his hands when he asked if they could marry and have children. She looked away and sighed again. "Let's go." She said, and they began walking again, silent as they thought of their lost companions.
After a couple hours of walking the sun began to set, and something big was ahead of them. They continued walking, and found a huge, huge gate with walls, and on posts at the top were two men wearing baggy hakama pants and black shirts. Kagome blinked. "I think we found a village." She said, and Sango nodded in reply.
"We've jumped into a new life," Rin said, staring at the gate in wonder. "Let's go make the best of it."
