Five years have passed since Kagome returned to the Sengoku period. Now Kagome and her friends' new story begins at a village on Kasai Mountain, which is under attack by demons.
"Stop them!" said one of the village warriors as he and some other warriors chased after seven shadowy figures that were flying away. Suddenly, a teenage boy jumped from a building, grabbing one of the figures by the leg.
"Stop this brother!" said the boy, who had hair and eyes that were flame red, he was wearing a monk like outfit.
"Not going to happen, Honō (Blaze)," said the other guy who had blond hair and orange eyes.
"Why did you betray the village, Fenikkusu (Phoenix)?!" asked Honō with anger in his voice.
"So I could get the power to take over the world that girl came from, and for that I needed the Shadow Jewel!" said Fenikkusu as he broke free from Honō's grip.
"But you know what will happen if you use that jewel," said Honō with a scared face.
"I don't give a dam," said Fenikkusu as he kicked Honō away with all the strength he had. As Honō flew through the air, he came crashing into the wall of a temple.
"Are you ok Honō?" asked an old man with a white beard as he ran over to him, he was also dressed like a monk.
"Yes grandmaster, but Fenikkusu got away with the Shadow Jewel," said Honō as he got up.
"I know, now you must go to Kaede's village, and find those who defeated Naraku; they are the only ones who can help you to defeat your brother," said the grandmaster.
"You can count on me grandmaster," said Honō as he bowled with respect to the grandmaster.
"But before you leave, take this," said the grandmaster as he handed Honō a blue stone.
"What is this?" asked Honō as he held the stone in his hand.
"It's called a Time Stone, it's very rare and is the only thing that can now activate the Bone Eater Wail so you can get to the future," said the grandmaster.
"Thank you grandmaster," said Honō with another bowl. All of a sudden he was engulfed in flames, and once they vanished, it was revealed that Honō had transformed into a giant phoenix.
"I'll be back as soon as I can be grandmaster," said Honō as he flew away towards the far hill sides. The next day in Kaede's village, Honō was walking around, looking for InuYasha and the others.
"I wander if one of these farmers can help me find them," said Honō as he looked around.
"Excuse me sir, but are you lost?" asked Rin, who is now six-teen years old, as she came walking up.
"I'm actually looking for InuYasha and his friends, I have a favor to ask of them," said Honō.
"Oh, then I can take you to them," said Rin as she lead him down the path.
"Thank you," said Honō as he followed her. A few minutes later the two had reached a hut that had a bell in the front yard under a wooden roof.
"Hey Kagome, you home?!" asked Rin from outside the hut. Kagome then came around the building with a broom and her priestess outfit on.
"Oh, hi Rin, who's your friend?" asked Kagome as she noticed Honō standing with Rin.
"This is, oh, I forgot to ask you your name," said Rin.
"It's Honō, and I'm here to ask you, InuYasha, and the rest of your friends for some help," said Honō.
"Well they're all out fishing, but you can wait here for them if you like, I'll even get you some tea while you wait," said Kagome.
"No bother, they're back," said Honō as he sniffed the air. InuYasha, Miroku, and Sango then emerged from the forest with baskets of fish on their backs fallowed by Miroku and Sango's three kids.
"How did you?" asked Kagome with a supriced expression.
"I have a good since of smell for fish," said Honō.
"Hey Kagome we're back," said InuYasha as he placed his basket, which was as big as their hut, down on the ground.
"I can see that, but I can't believe how many fish you got," said Kagome who was more supriced to see all of the fish.
"Well don't, all of those were coot by InuNingen," said Miroku as he sat his basket down. A young boy that looked like the human InuYasha with dog ears then jumped out of the huge basket with a fish in his mouth.
"Hi mom," said InuNingen as he still had the fish in his mouth.
"I thought I told you never to eat and talk at the same time," said Kagome with a scolding tone of voice.
"Sorry mom, oh who's that with Rin?" asked InuNingen as he noticed Honō standing next to Rin.
"This is Honō, he came here for our help," said Kagome.
"Ah, so do you need a demon expelled from your home?" asked Miroku as he walked up.
"Why would he need that when he is a demon?" asked InuYasha as he put his hands into his sleeves.
"He is?!" said a shocked Miroku.
"I'm actually one fourth demon, my great grandfather was a full demon," said Honō with an innocent face.
"Then why are you here?" asked Sango with a look on her face that said she did not trust him.
"Yesterday my village on Kasai Mountain was attacked and the jewel that my people protected was stolen by my brother, Fenikkusu," said Honō.
"Sorry Honō, but we aren't in the business of hunting treasure anymore," said InuYasha.
"Even if the stolen jewel is twice as powerful as the Sheikon Jewel was?" asked Honō. This news got everyone's attention.
"A jewel more powerful than the Sheikon Jewel, is that even possible?" asked Kagome.
"It's because it was made with thousands of demons, and no priestess was used to make it, reason we call it the Shadow Jewel," said Honō.
"Do you know where your brother might be?" asked one of the twins.
"That's the problem, it's in the future," said Honō.
"Wait, you don't mean my future do you?" asked Kagome with a scared face as she thought of her family and friends. All Honō did was nod his head which made her face turn pail.
"But the Bone Eater Wail doesn't work anymore," said the same twin as earlier.
"Mun's right," said Miroku.
"That's why I have this," said Honō as he showed them the Time Stone.
"What is it?" asked Mun's sister.
"It's a Time Stone, it will allow the wail to work again," said Honō.
"That's so cool," said Mun's sister.
"Taiyo's right, hey come over here Uingu," said Mun as she motioned to her brother. Uingu then walked over to them to look at the stone in Honō's hand.
"Ok that's enough looking, and I'll understand if you all don't want to help me," said Honō as he put the stone away.
"I might have choose to live in this time, but I can't just let my family be hurt by a demon that escaped from here," said Kagome with a series face.
"I'm going if she's going," said InuYasha.
"If my parents go then so don't I, besides I would love to meet mom's side," said InuNingen.
"We have always wanted to see Kagome's home," said Miroku.
"And the kids could use some hunting practice in a different world," said Sango.
"Yeah," said Mun with a smile.
"We get to go too," said Taiyo with a cheerful voice.
"Yay," said Uingu who was also smiling.
"Hey, you weren't going to leave us out were you?" asked Kohaku as he flew above them on Kirara.
"What are you doing here Kohaku?" asked Sango, surprised to see her brother.
"I came to drop of Kirara and Shippo," said Kohaku as Kirara landed and a teenage fox demon jumped off of her back along with Kohaku.
"Don't tell me that that's Shippo with you," said InuYasha as he looked at the teenage Shippo.
"It's been a while guys," said Shippo in a deep voice.
"I would say so," said Kagome as she looked at how tall he had become, he was at least six feet tall now.
"Hey Kohaku, instead of coming with us, why don't you stay and help the village while we are gone," said Sango.
"That's a good idea sis, I'll do that," said Kohaku.
"Alright then, let's head out to the Bone Eater Wail," said Honō.
"Yeah!" said all of the others as they put their hands into the air.
