::Kikyo. Sometimes I wonder about her. Well, then again sometimes I wonder about myself. I've seen her heal her enemies, showing them love, sympathy. but at the same time, I've seen a raging hatred emanating from her. A hatred for Inu Yasha, the one she loved. If I'm her reincarnation, then why are we completely different? It's like our soul was split in two: I got the better side and she got the bitter side.::

Kagome looked up into the sky and blinked. She walked briskly down the city streets, snow drifting down from a dull grayness.

"I wonder if Inu Yasha has a reincarnation too, someone in my time." Kagome crossed her arms, closing her eyes.

She suddenly crashed into someone, knocking him and her down onto the sidewalk. "Itai! Oh I'm really sorry, I wasn't looking where I was going and-"

A grunt came from a rough yet familiar voice. Kagome only caught a glimpse of the male figure as he scrambled up and walked briskly away.

::The roots of his hair were white, but the ends were black.. and that voice, I've heard it before.:: Kagome stood up. "Wait!" The words escaped her lips before she could think. "Wait! Hey!" She pushed her way through the crowd and saw another glimpse of the man, although now she could tell it was a boy well in his teenage years. A spark of shock ran through her body as she gasped. ::The voice... the hair.:: "INU YASHA!"

The boy stopped and turned to look at her. "Are you a stalker or something? My name is Yuki, YUKI, not Inu-whatever."

Kagome stared. He didn't have fangs, claws, yellow eyes or dog ears. But then again, who does in modern day Japan? He looked exactly like Inu Yasha did whenever he transformed into his human form.

He clenched his hand into a fist. "Hey, are you gonna stare all day? I know you can't resist my good looks but please, do me a favor and LAY OFF."

::Well, that's for sure. He has that conceited personality of the one and only Inu Yasha.:: "Why is your hair white at the top but black at the bottom?" Kagome reached to touch it.

Yuki backed away. "I was born that way."

"I'm not going to hurt you!" Kagome huffed her chest and glared at him. "But, can you come with me Yuki, I need you to answer some questions..."

"Crazy." Yuki muttered as Kagome took his hand and pulled him along to her house.

Kagome brought him into her room. She dug in her book bag for a while.

She threw back her hair, her cheeks rosy in frustration. "Pah, here it is." She held the bottle of the Shikon Jewel. "Do you recognize this?" She handed it to Yuki.

He fingered the bottle. "Well." He muttered. "It's not something I can name off the top of my head but it feels so."

"So what?" Kagome took his hand firmly.

"So familiar." Yuki grasped her hand and stared into her eyes. He suddenly slapped it. "HA! PSYCHE! You think I recognize this piece of shit? You're as stupid as they get!" Yuki threw back his head in laughter.

Kagome snatched her hand back and rubbed the wound. ::I'm not giving up that easily Mr. Yuki!::

"Stupid girl. You brought me all this way for nothing!"

"I'm not done with you yet." Kagome crossed her arms.

"Yes you are."

"No, I'm not."

"Yes, you are."

"No, I'm not."

"YES, YOU ARE!" Yuki jumped up and marched to the door.

There was only one thing Kagome could do, and it was by instinct. "SIT!"

Yuki fell face-flat onto the floor.

::It is his reincarnation.. it is Inu Yasha!:: Kagome clasped her hands together. "Now onward to the well."

Kagome grabbed her bicycle and bow and arrows. Yuki was still rubbing his face and groaning. "How the hell did you do that?"

"Do what?"

"You know hell what."

"Oh. the 'sit' part. You'll learn my doggy friend, you'll learn..."

"Doggy!? I've heard homie dawg, oppa dawg, but doggy!? Feh..."

Kagome led him to the well. "Well, hop in. The portal awaits."

Yuki stared down into the dark, black well. ::Why the hell am I even here? Maybe I should just go home. In fact, that's what I'm gonna do.:: "Sorry Kagome, but I'm out."

Kagome gasped and looked at him with widened eyes. "This proves it once and for all."

"Proves what?"

"That you're Inu Yasha!"

"How?"

"You knew my name. I never told you what it was."

Yuki looked at her. She was crazy, but maybe she had a point.
