Hiya peoples! How ya doin'? I love angsty fics, so don't bother me.
Anyway, you don't want to listen to me babble. Tail: Darn right they
don't! Me: Shut up! Anyway, on with the fic.
To those of you who are awaiting my new AU fic, this isn't it. This is just kind of a fly by the seat of my pants deal. I promise to have the AU fic up soon! Promise!

"Inuyasha! Look out!"
Inuyasha jumped out of the way just in time to avoid the attack from the demon he was currently fighting. Over on the sidelines, Miroku watched with a thoughtful look on his face.
'This demon. I know I've seen something like it in a book once before, but...'
"Hey, Miroku!" Sango called. "How about getting your butt over here and helping us!"
'There's something important about it. Something very important. I should have spent more time studying when I was still with Mushin!'
Kagome pulled an arrow out of her quiver and set it to her bow. Inuyasha took a blow from the demon and was sent flying into a tree twenty feet away, rendering him unconscious.
"Inuyasha! You'll pay for this, you demon!" Kagome drew the string back as far as she could.
'Something important...'
"DIE!!!" Kagome released the arrow.
It was then that it clicked in Miroku's head.
"NO! Kagome, don't shoot it!"
"What? Why?"
Time seemed to slow as Miroku watched the arrow fly towards the star- shaped mark on the demon's chest. 'Please don't hit the star,' he silently pleaded. No one answered his prayers. The arrow hit the dead center of the star. Time sped up again as the demon slowly shrank into the star on its own chest. Then the star began to grow into a large portal that sucked in everyone except for Inuyasha.
The sound of sudden silence shook Inuyasha from his unconscious state. Looking around, he found that everyone was gone. There was no trace of them anywhere.
"No. Sango, Miroku, Shippo. KAGOME!!!"

Kagome groggily opened her eyes. Looking around her, she saw Sango, Miroku, Shippo, and Kirara also just awakening.
"Miroku," she asked. "What happened? What was that demon?"
"It... it was a Time demon. They control time using those star shaped marks on their chests. When the star is pierced, it can cause some serious time warps." He looked at the forest surrounding them. "But maybe we got off lucky. It doesn't look like anything happened."
"Where's Inuyasha?" Shippo piped up.
Kagome looked around and noticed that he wasn't there. "I don't know. It wouldn't be like him to just run off and leave us. Maybe he saw us unconscious and went to get help. There's a little bit of smoke coming from over there meaning there's probably a village. Maybe he went there."
"Maybe," Sango said. "We should head there anyway."
~
Kagome pushed aside the last branch in between them and the village. In the middle of a small courtyard, Kagome could see a group of boys playing with a ball. Six of the boys were obviously older than the seventh, maybe about eight years of age and the small one only looked about five, and were taunting him by tossing the ball just above his reach. Perfectly normal behavior for boys their age. What surprised Kagome was the boy that they were taunting.
"Miroku?" she asked. "Who does that look like to you?"
"It looks like... Inuyasha."

That was a really pathetic chapter. Please don't stop reading, though!!! I promise the next chapter will be more interesting! Expect angst in later chapters. Review please!
