Hello readers, I intend to stick to this story and not lose the chapters due to memory wipes and viruses and perverts... anyway... This will once again involve my good muddy Mikashi and his adventures through many animes that I have grown to love over the years, but I digest, time for the story. I will start with a favorite of mine and every body else... Inuyasha. No I don't own it, only Mikashi. R&R peeps.
Mikashi sighed to himself, he had to work a double shift again, him and his partner Terav. The two were detectives for Tokyo's finest, even though they held the records for the most busts, they were... very unorthadox in their captures. Mikashi prefered to use of his family's Katana to capture crooks that prefered hand to hand combat while Terav stayed a far distance away and disarmed gunman with his trusty sniper rifle. The two were beyond unorthadox in thier methods and has yet to seriously wound any culprit. The two were currently on another stakeout, but they were unotrhadox in that as well. While Mikashi would watch from his car, a 69 Charger and a rarity in Japan, Terav would sit up on a rooftop watching the place through his scope. After a few hours of waiting they found thier guy, A local drug lord that was evading thier department a little too well. Mikashi brushed his white shoulder length hair from his eyes to get a better look at the man with his blue eyes. It was him alright, the man's long messy black hair went to the waist of his traditional dark blue robes. Mikashi slowly got out of the car to puresue him. He slipped in behind the guards silently staying close to the man's trail.
His path led him to a what looked like a warehouse filled with weapons, and strange animals he never seen before in his life. He shook his head, genetic experiments maybe? He remained on the man's trail, out of sight, out of mind. He couldn't keep his eyes away from the caged animals, the further he proceded, the more demonic they seemed. Eventually his target left into an office, closing the door behind him. Mikashi stepped up to the door and planted his ear against it, nothing, not even the screech of a chair. He slowly opened the door and stared at what he saw. A hole, but not one in the wall, one in the air. It seemed to be some sort of portal, where to was a mystery to him. He was so captivated by the sight that he didn't notice the knife against his neck. "You should learn how to hide that enrgy of yours." Mikashi swore under his breath and couldn't help the chill that crawled up his spine from the man's cold voice. "Who are you?" He heard a rather hash chukle next to his ear. "You may call me Naraku, but it seems you've learned of my secret, and you can take your hand away from your sword." Mikashi swore again, he was trying to creep his sword out to counter attack, but he had to rely on Terav now. Mikashi released his sword and let his arm fall to the side. "What do you mean energy." Naraku chukled again. "Why don't we find out." Mikashi felt a push on his back and toppled into the portal, he felt strange as a purple light surounded him and he felt earth against his body again as he fell to the ground, unfortunatly a wall of some sort was there as well and blocked his full passage and he fell unconcious from the sudden blow.

Kagome smiled happily as she pulled her yellow pack onto her shoulders, it felt larger than usual and she was suprised that the straps hadn't snapped off yet. She bound from the house giving a quck goodbye to her mom and brother. She was going back to Inuyasha today, they were still pursuing Naraku, the demon still had the last jewel shard they needed. She bound for the small shrine that covered the well until her grandfather cought her eye. He was standing in front of the well with his arms crossed. Kagome stared at her grandpa with a questioning look. "What's up grandpa?" "Kagome, I can't allow you to go back to the fuedal era." Kagome stared at her grandpa. "Why?" "Because I ran out of diseases to excuse your absence." Kagome felt a vain throb in her head. "Then for once tell them I have a cold!" She ran past her grandpa before he could awnser and leaped into the well for the upteeth time. There was something different about this time though, when she came out the other end she collapsed over somebody, sombody who gave a cry of pain from the weight of both her and her pack. Kagome gasped and quickly got to her feet, staring down at the figure.It was a man, white haired like Inuyasha, but wearing a brown trenchcoat with black slacks and t-shirt underneath. She stared at him for a minute before screaming. "INUYASHA!"

Mikashi woke with a groan, his head was killing him. He opened his eyes and noticed he was inside a wooden house of some sort. An old woman's voice spoke out next to him. "Ah, good you're awake." He turned his head to see the onwer of the voice, an old woman, bent over slightly in her seat next to his bed on the floor. Teh woman was wearing the traditional robes for a preistess, but seemed they seemed to be quite new. He also noticed the eyepatch over her right eye. He sat up, bringing a hand to his aching head. "Where am I?" The old woman gave a small hum at his voice. "I do not think I am the one to explain it to you." Mikashi stared at her for a moment before she called someone by the name Kagome. A young girl with raven black hair, probably fifteen walked into the room, wearing what seemed to Mikashi as a green and white school uniform. "This is Kagome Higurashi, she may be able to explain things better to you mister..." Mikashi smiled and held out his hand, not exactly sure who's hand to shake first. "Mikashi Bartonsier. Dective of Tokyo Police, 23rd department." The girl named Kagome stared at him oddly for a moment before shaking his hand. "Well that helps things along a bit, at least we know where you came from." Mikashi stared at her for a moment with a questioning look. "Maybe you can help explain what's going on. Where am I?" Kagome smiled at him before taking a seat as well, folding her legs under her.
Kagome sighed before she started speaking. "You're in... Fuedal Japan. You traveled back in time somehow." Mikashi stared at her for a moment. "But how would I be able to..." He suddenly remembered that he was pursuing Naraku and quickly looked around the room quickly, expecting to see him standing behind the cop. "I was pursing a perp, tall, dark shaggy hair and red eyes, calls himself Naraku, have you seen him?" His tone got serious quickly. "I was pursing him when he pushed me into a portal of some kind, I remember hitting my head, next thing I know I'm here." At this point another man, with silver white hair barged in with his hand on a sword hilt. His red clothes seemed to crowd the room, but were very baggy. Gold eyes and sharp teeth sgalred around the room. "I heard someone say Naraku. Hey you!" The strange man turned his eyes to the cop. "You work for Naraku don't you?" Kagome seemed to growl for a minute, apparedntly very annoyed. "Inuyasha, sit!" A purple neckalce aroun the man's neck seemed to glow for a moment before he fell face first into the dirt. "Kagome, what did you do that for?" Mikashi just sat there, dumbstruck. "He's not one of Naraku's demons, he's human. I think he came from my time." This seemed to catch up to Mikashi pretty quickly. "Naraku sent me here somehow, don't care how, or why, but I need to get to him, know where he is?" Inuyasha decided to bark at him. "If we did he would be dead by now." Inuyasha manged to get to his feet again and sat down next to Kagome. Mikahsi gathered his sword from beside the bed and reattached it to his belt.
Kagome smiled at the cop and clapped her hands. "Hey, why don't you come with us? We're all searching for Naraku, we'd have a better chance if we look together." Inuyahsa didn't disagree with her but just gave a kind of rude cough at the notion. Mikashi stared at the two ears on top of Inuyasha's head, he hadn't noticed them until now. "You guys seem to know more about him than I do... alright I'll come with you. Just one question. What the hell is with these?" He grabbed one of Inuyasha's ears and tugged on it lightly. Inuyasha managed to bat his hand away. "I'm a dog demon, so I have dog ears okay?" Mikashi stared at him for a few minutes. "So there are demons here too?" He sighed and started walking for the door. "As much as I need a moment to gather all of this we need to get to Naraku, let's go." Inuyasha and Kagome stayed put. "We don't have any leads on where to find him though, there hasn't been any kind of strange activity or any kind of trouble nearby, we'd just be moving in circles." Mikashi stared at them for a moment before he smiled. "What about dead leads, previous whereabouts, anything like that?" The other three looked at each other, confussed until Kagome spoke. "Well there is Naraku's old castle, but it was reduced to dust the last time we saw it." Mikashi's smiled faded. "You're a dog can't you pick up his scent?" Inuyasha growled at him. "Not around here, he hasn't been bold enough to attack the village yet." Mikashi sighed. "Well then wondering aimlessly it is." He stepped out the door with a huff. Kaede watched him go before nodding at Inuyasha and Kagome. "You two, go with him, make sure he stays out of trouble, he may be older than you but something troubles him more than what is occuring."
A few minutes later Mikashi and Inuyasha were waiting outside of Kaede's hut so Kagome could gather her things. They spoke about meeting with others, those Mikashi hadn't met yet. He wanted to ask but found it easier to wait. He was trying to wrap his mind around all of this, the fuedal era, demons, and an actual priestess. He shook his head, cursing his luck. Inuyasha's head popped up suddenly, sniffing the air for a moment. Then he started counting down after Kagome apeared from the hut. "5...4...3...2...1..." A loud slap sounded through the village followed by a scream of "pervert". Mikashi stared at Inuyahsa for a moment. Kagome answered the question before it was asked. "Our friends, come on." Kagome ran towards the sound of the slap, smiling. Inuyasha walked after her, Mikashi behind him, staring at them both like they were crazy. After a few minutes the males saw Kagome hugging a young woman about Kagome's age with brown hair and in a white and pink Kimono and carrying a large boomerang on her back. Behind her was a man younger than Mikashi in purple robes with his black hair tied into a small pony tail and carrying a staff with a number golden rings on it. He was also wearing a red handprint on his face. "Come on you guys there's someone I want you to meet." Kagome dragged the two over to Mikashi who just stared at her like she was nuts. "Guys, this is Mikashi Bartonsier, a... um... law enforcer from my time." Kagome introduced him, not sure what word to use for detective. "Mikashi this is Sango and Miroku. Sango is a demon slayer from a village in the mountains, and Miroku is a buddist monk." Mikashi blinked at them before smiling and holding out his hand. "Hello, I take it you two are after Naraku as well?" They seemed taken aback that he knew about Naraku but smiled ans shook his hand reguardless. "Yeah, we travel with Inuyasha and Kagome." A small voice down at their feet was the one speaking. Mikashi blinked at a small child with orange hair and large fluffy tail. "That's Shippo, a kitsune." A small meow from Sango also piped up as a yellow kitten with black markings and two tails showed itself on Sango's shoulder. "And this is Kirara, a two tailed cat demon."

After they excahanged hellos and information about Naraku, they headed west. The sun was already setting after a few hours and no new information came. The group started to set up camp in a small clearing in the forest, sitting around a campfire. Kagome finally asked what everyone wanted to know, with the exception of Inuyasha. "Tell us about yourself Mikashi." Mikashi looked over at Kagome for a moment before he answered. "Well as you already know I'm a detective for Tokyo, a large city in our time.((A/N: I have no idea if Tokyo actually existed in the Feudal Era, so bear with me if that's wrong)) I'm one of the best in my unit, and my partner and I held a lot of records on our acomplishments. I don't like using the weapons from our time though, no challenge." He smiled as he patted the blue ribbon on his sword's sheathe. "I was tracking down Naraku in our time, I thought he was doing experiments on animals, but now that I think about it I think he was bringing demons to our time, weak and wild ones, but demons none the less." He seemed to be in thought for a moment before getting to his feet. "If you'll excuse me I need to go practice, not going to get any better just standing around." He patted his sword lightly before looking at Inuyahsa. "Actually I havn't had a chance to battle anyone blade to blade. Care to give me a hand with that Inuyahsa." The demon smirked at him. "That a challenge?" Mikashi shrugged and walked into a more open portion of the clearing. "Only if you want it to be, demon." Inuyasha smirked and lept to the clearing, drawing his sword, but instead of a normal sword being drawn, the weapon seemed to grow in size, looking more like a giant fang than an actual sword. Mikashi stared at it for a moment. "What in hell?" Inuyasha smirked at the cop. "My Tetseiga is a demon sword, and I'm the only one that can use it." Mikashi stared at him. "Use whatever weapon you like, won't matter at all." Mikashi drew his own well polished sword and held it lightly in his hands, stepping into a defensive stance. "I'll give you the first move." The others came down to the edge of the clearing to watch.
Inuyasha charged, pulling his sword over his head to slash at Mikashi. Mikashi was very impressed with Inuyasha's strength and rolled out of the way of the attack. He stared at Inuyasha for a second as he pulled his sword from a new dent in the earth. Inuyasha swung again, sideways this time. Mikashi brought his sword up to defelct the blow over his head. The large weapon bounced off of Mikashi's sword as Inuyasha prepped for another powerful swing. Mikahsi saw his opening, and rolled behind Inuyasha as he swung and held the sword to his neck. "Your form is really weak Inuyasha, you spend more time concentrating on power attacks rather than smart ones. You should have went for a thrust manuver rather than another slash." He released the demon and started walking back to the camp. "Anyone else care to try?" Sango got to her feet, brushing the dirt from her kimono. "I will, just give me a moment." Mikashi seemed to hesitate before he nodded. Sango disapeared into the bushes for a few moments before reapearing in black and pink battle armor that showed off her curves rather nicely. Miroku suddenly had a much brighter smile and Mikashi a slight blush. He shook the heat in his face away before he smiled. "I was starting to wonder what it was you fought in." Sango gathered her boomerang from the group and walked to where Inuyasha once stood after the demon went back to the group, slightly pissed about losing to a human.
Mikashi smiled slightly and drew his sword agqain, stepping back into his defensive stance. He underestimated Inuyasha and wasn't about to do the same with Sango, even if she was human, she was one who hunted those like Inuyasha, so he wasn't about to underestimate her. Sango cried out a word that Mikashi didn't quite catch as she hurled the weapon straight for him. He tried to block it with his sword, but found the weapon to me much heavier than he expected, and deflcted it instead. He was caught off guard when she attacked him with a sword from a different angle. "Shit you're fast!" He barely managed to block her attack in time. The demon slayer was much stronger than he expected, but wasn't very suprised. He managed to send her attack away and stepped into a defnsive stance, trying to find an opening in her attack. He found himself on the defensive for most of the fight. He took a chance at an opening and swung upward. She blocked the blow with her arm, but a blade had popped out of ehr sleeve to block it. Mikashi felt a kick to his ribs that made him fall back a bit. He quickly regained his balance and stepped into a different stance. He charged the demon slayer and brought his sword down on hers. A series of clangs were the rusult of Mikashi's attack as Sango blocked blow after blow. Sango kicked his ffet out from under him and Mikashi went down. He tried to get up but found a sword at his neck.
Sango smiled and offered her hand to help him up. He accepted and got to his feet, sheathing his sword. "That should be enough for today, thanks for that." Mikashi started walking back to the campfire with the others when a question came to him. "So why are you guys following Naraku?" The others seemed to freeze for a moment as they got back around the fire. "Pull up a seat, this is going to be a long night." Mikashi blinked a couple times before doing just that and sitting down in the grass.
