Sistah girl I don't think we're in Baltimore anymore
Ch.1 : Oops my bad…
"Give me the map stupid!" Ashley groaned as she fruitlessly tried to grab the map from her younger cousin, "no way…you'd get us lost…you suck at directions" a short girl with shoulder length braided brown hair teased. "Well you suck at life!" Ashley snapped back as she shoved her cousin into a bush and snatched the map, the younger girl rolled around in the bush trying to get up to her feet while Ashley walked away swinging her back pack behind her 'idiot' she thought as she heard the muffled curses of her younger cousin.
Ashley was a 15-year-old black American girl with chin length black hair and dark brown eyes but she wore glasses. Ashley was pretty smart which was usually displayed behind her sarcasm. But she loved to read and listen to music (usually hip-hop or rock). Ashley like her cousin Destiny was also very skilled in Japanese from school and was excited to test it out on this trip she was on with her cousin. It was there first trip abroad by themselves for 3 weeks before school started back up, unfortunately her cousin was really dragging her feet today…the 2nd day of their trip.
"Come on Des or we'll never make it to the shrine y 11 a.m…remember we're meeting those kids from the hotel for lunch at 12:30" Ashley yelled back to her cousin who was now brushing the twigs off of her sweatshirt. Destiny was 3 years younger than Ashley but shared her same wacky nature but she also had a pretty short temper…much shorter than her cousins. "I still don't see why we have to go see that stupid shrine anyway…we should be going to the mall or checking out some cool Japanese clubs" Destiny whined as she dragged her black backpack behind her on the pavement. Destiny wasn't really into sight seeing she just wanted to party but of course since Ashley's parents were the ones providing the trip she had no choice but to follow her cousin's lead…but didn't mean she couldn't complain.
Finally the girls stopped at a grassy knoll with a staircase leading to what looked like some sort of temple "yes! We're here…finally ok lets get this over with!" Destiny cheered as she grabbed Ashley's arm and started to drag her up the steps. Destiny ran up the steps with ease as Ashley panted and stumbled behind her "slow…(pant-wheeze) down…" Ashley whined between breaths. Destiny just ignored her cousin's pleas and continued up the steps until finally they reached the top, "here…god…you really need to exercise your lazy ass more" destiny snorted as she let go of Ashley's hand and walked over to an old man sweeping the pavement in front of a house. "Hoe" Ashley mumbled as she stood up on her shaky legs and followed, "oh my…well welcome to the Higurashi shrine…you two ladies don't look like you're from around here…where are you from?" the old man asked with a polite bow.
Ashley smiled and bowed as well "hello…yes we're from America my name is Ashley Thomas and this is my cousin Destiny Thomas" Ashley replied as she caught her breath. The old man looked slightly taken aback as the girl spoke "well so very nice to meet you…I'm sorry I'm just surprised…your Japanese is almost perfect" the man said impressed. Ashley was about to thank him but Destiny stepped up to the man with her hands on her hips "yeah whatever now lets get this show on the road because I'm tired and I got a blister the size of…" Destiny started to rant but Ashley quickly slapped a hand over the girl's mouth and sweat dropped. "I'm so sorry…my cousin is a bit high strung…she hasn't taken her meds yet" Ashley said with a sweet smile as she covered Destiny's mouth. The old man looked a little confused but just nodded "oh well I hope she feels better…I'm a little busy now but feel welcome to look around as much as you like" he said as he continued to sweep.
Ashley smiled back at him and Destiny bit her finger "Ow!" Ashley hissed as she pulled her hand away from the girl's mouth and gave her an icy death glare. Destiny just stuck her tongue out at her cousin before running off towards a large tree near the temple, "you little wench!" Ashley grunted as she chased after the other girl. Destiny stopped for a moment to catch her breath as she leaned on the an old rickety door "ha-ha…I think I'll just rest here…her fat ass wont be able to catch up to me any time soon" Destiny chuckled to herself. "DESTINY!" came a familiar yell and Destiny looked up and saw her cousin running at full speed towards her and Destiny's eyes widened fearfully "oh snap!" she squeaked as she looked around for a place to hide. Suddenly she noticed that the door she was leaning on was partially open and she looked over to a sigh posted on the side of the door "Bone eaters well? Hmmm…this'll do!" Destiny muttered to herself as she turned and ran through the door with Ashley hot on her trail.
Inside the shack Kagome Higurashi stood in front of an old decrepit looking well in her school uniform and a yellow backpack, "I hope Inuyasha's not still upset about that argument we had last time…hmmm…I guess I didn't have to 'sit' him that many times" Kagome giggled to herself as she held the small container of jewel shards preparing to jump into the well. Suddenly Kagome was broken out of her trance as she heard the sound of two sets of foot steps rushing through the door to the well "come back here you ass wipe!" an angry female voice called out, "what the?" Kagome whispered. Suddenly a short tan skinned girl with braids came running down the steps followed by another girl with black hair, neither one noticed Kagome until –CRASH- Ashley and Destiny crashed into Kagome knocking them all into the bone eaters well. "Oh no!" Kagome cried out as a familiar white light engulfed the three girls "what the heeeeeeeeellllll!" the two girls yelled as they fell through the well.
In feudal Japan
Inuyasha sat impatiently by the well in a small clearing while an energetic Shippo hovered over the well "hey…Inuyasha…when's Kagome getting back…shouldn't she be here by now?" the young Kitsune asked. Inuyasha just "feh'd" and went back to brooding "don't worry lady Kagome promised she would be back shortly after she finished another one of those exam things she's always studying for" Miroku said calmly from his meditative spot against a near by tree. Suddenly there was a loud crash in the well "finally!" Inuyasha grumbled as he hopped to his feet and went over to the well to help Kagome out, "took you long enough stupid…" Inuyasha started to say until he noticed a slender brown hand reach out of the well and grab onto the side.
He quickly backed away suspiciously as a strange woman pulled her self out of the well and turned around to grab onto another strange girl. "What the hell happened?" the shorter one asked as she brushed off her black sweatshirt and stone washed denim Capri's, the other girl with glasses brushed off her denim skirt and pink tank-top. "I have no clue…what is this place…what's with all the trees and where's the shrine?" the taller one asked as she looked around the well. "A little help…" came an aggravated voice from within the well "oh yeah…that girl you knocked over," the taller one said thoughtfully as she reached back into the well to help the girl. "Wait! That I knocked over!" the short one yelled through gritted teeth "you're the one who chased me!" she protested but the other girl was to busy helping Kagome up. "What happened…who are you two?" Kagome asked as she rubbed her back in pain, "that's what we'd like to know!" came an angry male voice from behind them.
"Inuyasha! There you are" Kagome said happy to see a familiar face "Kagome who are these two humans…they look strange" inuyasha said defensively as he walked over to Kagome with Tetsiaga (I have no clue how it's spelled) at the ready. The smaller one glared at the silver haired boy "oh yeah well Yo mama!" she snapped at him and the other sweat dropped, then she looked up at the boy and her eyes caught sight of the two silver triangular dog ears on his head. "Dude…you have dog ears on your head" the taller one said bewildered "gee way to state the obvious Ash" the short one responded as she rolled her eyes then the two girls started to argue. Inuyasha growled irritated at the two girls bickering and Kagome stepped in front of him "who are you and where did you come from" Kagome asked sternly and both girls stopped arguing and looked at one another calculatingly until finally the shorter one nodded her head and broke her gaze from the other girl.
The Shorter one took a deep breath "ok…my name is Destiny Thomas and this is my older cousin Ashley Thomas…we're from the unites states…but we came here to Japan for vacation and my artsy fartsy cousin just had to come see the Higurashi shrine so we went" the short girl, destiny paused and turned to the taller one…Ashley. "Right…so we got there and this old dude told us to look around and this little wench right here decided to bite me so I chased her into this old shack and that's when we knocked into that chick right there and fell in the well" Ashley said gesturing to Kagome. The group looked around at each other blankly "but lady Kagome I thought that only those bearing the jewel shards could pass through the well?" Miroku asked finally getting into the conversation. Suddenly Destiny got a weird twitch in her eye and she turned to look at Ashley who smiled sheepishly and began to fish into her skirt pocket, "oops" she said.
Ashley pulled out a tiny half broken glass container with 3 tiny pinkish jewel shards and handed it to Kagome, "sorry it must have fallen off and I think the impact of the fall broke it" Ashley said with a nervous laugh. Kagome grabbed the bottle and immediately and slapped her forehead "thank god…I thought I'd lost it" she sighed in relief and Ashley and Destiny exchanged looks "um…okay…so could you answer us one question please?" Ashley asked politely. "Sure" Kagome said "WHERE THE HELL ARE WE!" Ashley and Destiny yelled at the same time causing the inu-gang to fall over, "Damn it you don't have to yell stupid wench!" Inuyasha snarled as he stood up. "Inuyasha!" Kagome reprimanded, "excuse you? Did you just call me a wench doggy man?" Destiny asked offended as she placed her hands on her hips. Inuyasha looked down at the girl who only came to his shoulders and snorted in disgust "yeah…so what?" he asked tauntingly and Destiny glared at him with steely cold eyes "awww hell no!" she yelled at him as she lunged forward to attack but Ashley caught her by the collar of her sweatshirt.
"Take a chill pill" Ashley sighed as she threw Destiny against a tree "ouch! Bitch!" Destiny yelled as she made contact with the tree, "I love you too Des" Ashley said sweetly. The Inu group sweat dropped "um…so do you think you maybe tell us what is going on here…where are we and who are you…and well…ok that's it" Destiny asked as she tried to stand back up but she yelped and fell back down clutching her ankle. "Lady Destiny what is the matter?" Miroku asked the young girl as she tried to limp over to the group, "my ankle…I think I twisted it when that skank over there pushed me" she whined as she sent Ashley a death glare. Kagome went over and brought Destiny's arm over her shoulder to try and support her "I think we need to get Kaede to check it out…it might be broken…Inuyasha would you mind…" Kagome asked pleadingly as she gestured to the girl. "No way!" inuyasha replied quickly and turned away "please…I'll give you some Ramen" Kagome offered and inuyasha turned around defeated "oh alright…but you owe me…come on girl" he grabbed destiny and positioned her on his back.
With that Inuyasha started running with his super fast demon speed "AHHH!" Destiny's scream echoed through the woods as Inuyasha ran her to the village, "um…so shouldn't we follow them?" Ashley asked. Kagome nodded and began to walk with Miroku and Shippo so Ashley followed carrying both her's and destiny's backpacks, "hey, girl…where are we really?" Ashley asked as she jogged to catch up wit the other 3. Kagome turned around and sighed "we're 500 years in the past…in feudal Japan…it's a long story" she shrugged, "just great…and I hate walking" Ashley sighed as she reached into her pocket and pulled out her I pod mini and started to listen to it as she walked.
Kaede's Hut
"Thank you very much for helping me bandage my wound lady Kaede" Sango said as she stroked Kirara's fur, the old woman nodded while putting her healing herbs and supplies away "think ye nothing of it lady Sango" was the woman's reply. "Hey hag!" Inuyasha called into the entrance of the hut "inuyasha…has Kagome returned already…hast ye brought her?" Kaede asked choosing to ignore the 'hag' crack. Inuyasha walked in the hut and unceremoniously dropped Destiny on the ground "ow! Watch it doggy boy!" she hissed as she rubbed her sore lower back, "feh, you should be thanking me stupid wench" he mumbled quietly to himself. –KICK- "What the hell!" Inuyasha yelled as he rubbed his sore shin "my ankle may be messed up but my hearing is fine ass wipe" Destiny said smugly. Sango looked over at this new person suspiciously and Kirara walked over to the girl and sniffed her trying to sense any type of demonic aura but found none, "aww…what a cute kitty" Destiny cooed as she reached down and pet Kirara's little head making her purr softly.
"Inuyasha…who is this girl…she's dressed strangely is she from Kagome's time?" Sango asked as inuyasha plopped down against a wall of the hut, "yes she is dressed in rather strange clothing…young miss what be ye name?" Kaede asked the girl. Destiny looked up at the old woman and the younger one and smiled nervously "um…my name is Destiny…um who are you?" destiny replied politely, Kaede bowed to the girl slightly "my name is Kaede and this here be Sango and I believe you've already become acquainted with inuyasha" Kaede replied as she sat down in front of the girl. Destiny looked over at Sango and smiled and smiled at Kaede and stuck out her tongue at inuyasha "um…where exactly are we…I tried to ask doggy boy over there but all he gives me is grief so maybe you can help me out" Destiny asked. Just then Kagome, Shippo, and Miroku came through the door trying to catch their breath "welcome back Kagome" Kaede said kindly to the girl "yes welcome back…we've met your friend destiny already…" Sango said standing up and walking over to greet the miko.
"There (wheeze) you (pant) are…damn…that was a long (wheeze) run…why couldn't we just take a bus," Ashley sputtered as she wobbled into the hut and collapsed on top of Destiny. "OWW! Get off of me you dumbass!" Destiny shrieked as she pushed Ashley away "who is this?" Sango asked surprised at this new appearance, "that's my stupid, lazy soon to be ex-cousin Ashley" destiny said annoyed. Ashley managed to get up to her feet and started to catch her breath "man, I need my inhaler" she sighed as she leaned on the wall and Destiny rolled her eyes. "Ok now that the theatrics are over can somebody please tell me what in the name of Samuel L. Jackson is going!" Destiny whined impatiently, "Who's that?" Sango, Miroku, Shippo, Kaede, and inuyasha asked. Destiny's eyes went wide and she turned and looked at Ashley who had an equally shocked expression "wow…we really aren't in 2005 anymore are we?" Ashley asked weakly. Destiny looked at her cousin like she was about to blow chunks "w-what do you mean…we aren't in 2005 anymore…what the hell!" Destiny stammered a she started to hyperventilate.
Destiny was breathing really fast and Kaede and the others (minus inuyasha…he didn't care) were looking at the girl worriedly "oh my is the child going to be alright?" Kaede asked as she put a hand on the girl's shoulder to calm her. Ashley rolled her eyes "oh please…step back let the doctor work" she said with a cocky smirk and Kaede backed away a bit. Ashley hauled her foot back in the air and thrust it forward –KICK- and with that Destiny went flying forward and right into a wall. "What happened" destiny asked wearily as she sat up breathing normally and the others sweat dropped "see…works every time" Ashley sighed as she went over to help destiny up. "Ok little miss Kagome explain…now!" Destiny said in a tone that demanded authority Kagome nodded and sat down "ok…sit down this could take a while," she said as the two girls' sat down.
.1 hour later
"So that's what's basically been happening" Kagome finished telling the two girls about how she found out she was the reincarnation of Kikyo and how they have been looking for the shards and about Naraku and both girls just listened with blank expressions. While Kagome was telling the story Kaede was bandaging Destiny's twisted ankle, "ok…so let me get this straight…we're 500 years in the past…where demons exist and you're the reincarnation of some powerful miko and inuyasha is a half demon and you're working together to find the shards the Shikon no tama so you can kill this big bad demon dude Naraku" Destiny repeated the gist of the story. Kagome nodded her head "ok…so then Miroku is a monk…and Sango is a demon slayer…and the little squirrel thing is a demon…" Ashley asked still bewildered, "Hey! I'm not a squirrel I'm a Fox demon!" Shippo huffed angrily.
"What ever" Destiny and Ashley shrugged "so how do we get back?" Ashley asked finally and Kagome looked at her thoughtfully "well you can only get back if you have a jewel shard…but I cant give you one because I wouldn't be able to get it back" Kagome replied. "Well why don't you just go back with us through the well?" Ashley persisted but inuyasha shook his head fervently "oh no…she just got here and there is no time for her to waste taking you back" inuyasha protested. The group sat around quietly thinking of what to do in their predicament "I know…we'll go with you and Kagome can take us back through the well after she's done" Destiny suggested. "Out of the question…it's way to dangerous for ye young ladies to go…there be demons about…it's not safe" Kaede said as she began to sweep the hut "lady Kaede is right it's way to dangerous…I mean can you girl's even fight?" Miroku added in agreement. Destiny and Ashley looked at the monk then at each other and started to bust out laughing "W-what the hell is so funny?" inuyasha demanded as he became increasingly annoyed with these girls.
"Jigga please, we can handle ourselves…I mean if you think it's dangerous out there try walking down a dark street in east Baltimore at night…we'll be fine" Destiny challenged, inuyasha rolled his eyes "yeah right…whatever…you can come but don't expect me to protect you and you better not get in the way!" he hissed at the girls. Destiny and Ashley smiled triumphantly "well…ok…if you guys are really sure…ok then I guess we'll start out tomorrow" Kagome sighed, "no way we have to leave now…it'll take us awhile to get to Sesshoumaru (I don't know how to spell it) castle" inuyasha replied putting a venomous emphasis on his half brother's name. Kagome looked up and cocked an eyebrow at inuyasha "why are we going there?" she asked "because Sesshoumaru is in alliance with Naraku supposedly…so we think maybe he can lead us to him" Sango replied as she stood up and walked over to the corner near the door and grabbed her Hiraikotsu. "But what about Destiny's ankle?" Shippo asked as the inu gang started to file out "it's just a little twist it's not sprained so the young miss should be fine" Kaede reassured.
"Yeah well she ain't the one who has walk on it" Destiny whispered in Ashley's ear as they stood up and walked (Destiny limped) after the others. "Try to keep up will ya!" inuyasha huffed from the front of the group Ashley rolled her eyes and Destiny gave inuyasha the finger. The first few hours of their journey was quiet, after a while the group started to get tired so Kagome stopped at a fielded area near a lake "ok we should camp here for the night" she said as she dropped her bag on the grass. Inuyasha turned around angrily "What! We're not even half way there we cant stop now!" he shouted at the raven haired miko, Kagome crossed her arms over her chest and glared at inuyasha. "Look it's almost dark and I think we could use a rest" she said sternly "we second that motion" Ashley and Destiny said before sitting down on the ground, "fine then you two can stay here but we have to go Kagome now!" inuyasha hissed at her. Kagome just rolled her eyes at him "inuyasha…SIT" she said and with that inuyasha body slammed the ground with a loud 'thud'. "DAAAAYUM!" Ashley and Destiny said as he hit the ground "that was cool…2 POINTS! 2 POINTS!" Ashley cheered and Kagome grinned sheepishly and blushed with embarrassment "um…thanks" she mumbled.
Inuyasha pulled himself out of crater he'd made in the ground and glared at Kagome with a look that could make an onion cry, "Miroku…you and inuyasha go get some wood for a fire…Sango help me get some water from the lake to use for dinner" Kagome said and Sango nodded while Miroku started to walk into the woods to find wood. "I'm going to go make sure there aren't any demons around…so monk you're on your own" inuyasha snorted before he hopped off to go survey the area. Kagome clenched her fists "that damn inuyasha" she muttered under her breath "I'll help Miroku get the wood if you want" Ashley offered as she stood up, Kagome turned and smiled at the girl "good…thank you Ashley" she replied and then she went off with Sango to start the meal she had brought to prepare. Ashley reached into her bag and pulled out a small metal object and stuffed it in her pocket "hey Miroku wait up!" she called after him, Destiny groaned in boredom as she looked over and saw Shippo sitting next to her "well…looks like it's just you and me squirrely" she sighed. "I'M NOT A SQUIRREL!" Shippo yelled in frustration and Destiny just ignored him and reached in her bag and pulled out candy bar "whatever…want some candy?" she asked indifferently. Shippo smiled and grabbed the candy bar "okay!" he said happily and he started to munch away while Destiny listened to her I pod.
