V. L. Thornton- Hello, hello everyone. I hope you are having a good day. Yes I have started another story (no I'm not crazy). This one is just something random that popped into my head so I hope you enjoy!

P.S. - I switch between first and third person a lot and sorry if the chapters are really short (I thought they were longer when I wrote them in my notebook).

Chapter 1 (Scorpion Demons and a Bad Premonition):

"Sit boy!" Kagome yelled. "Sit, sit, sit, sit, sit boy!"

"Ow! What the heck did you do that for, Kagome?" Inuyasha cried from the inu-hanyou shaped crater.

Kagome ignored the question and said, "I'm going home so just sit tight for a few days until I get back. And don't even think about following me!" True to her word Kagome grabbed her oversized yellow travel bag and leapt into the bone eater's well. Inuyasha turned towards Kaede's hut muttering to himself about how Kagome took jokes too seriously.

"I just tried to surprise her a little, how was supposed to know she's afraid of snakes?" He said kicking a loose stone with his bare foot. The stone flew through the air until, rather forcefully, it hit an angry and very hungry demon, right between the eyes. The demon looked like an over sized scorpion, with humanoid features on the front half.

"Are you the one who woke me from my slumber?!" cried the demon.

"So what if I am?" Inuyasha sneered. "There's nothing you can do about it, you oversized bug!"

The demon smiled and said, "You won't be saying that for long, little hanyou. 'Cause right now you look very ... Delicious!" The demon lept towards Inuyasha while sucking in the surrounding air, almost like Miroku's Wind Tunnel. However the vacuum wasn't the same, it didn't appear to be doing any damage.

"It'll take more than just that to defeat me!" Inuyasha yelled. He unsheathed Tetsuaiga only to toppple forwards under the weight of it's transformed state. "What the...!" It was then Inuyasha noticed, he was shrinking!

"Oh yes," cackled the scorpion demon happy with himself. " Just as I thought your time is VERY tasty, little hanyou!"

Inuyasha stared in shock at his shrinking form, unable to do anything to stop it.

The scorpion demon's laughter was cut off by the sound of Sango's Hiraikotsu slicing it in half. To the dismay of the new arrivals, Sango, Miroku, Shippo, and Kirara, the wound quickly healed and the demon continued to "suck the life" out of Inuyasha.

Miroku tried to pull the demon into his Wind Tunnel, but was only successful in getting to stop feeding off of Inuyasha.

"Tch, stupid humans. I'll retreat for now, but I will return to claim my prize, or what's left of him anyway!" the demon cried as it disappeared into the shadows. Miroku and Sango exchanged nervous glances before running to the aide of shrunken hanyou.

(Kagome's PoV)

"I can't believe that idiot!" I yelled into my pillow. "Just who does he think he is, that Inuyasha?" My mind traveled back to a few hours previously when I was still in the Warring States Era. Inuyasha had thought it'd be funny to slip a snake, a highly poisonous one at that, into my sleeping bag. If not for my reflexes of throwing the legless lizard out of my portable bed and then proceeding to drive it away with Miroku's staff I would have been dead, or worse!

I shoved my face further into my pillow and yelled, "Baka, baka, baka!" repeatedly. When I finally felt worn out I lied down on my bed allowing my pillow to fall to the floor beside me.

I had hardly closed my eyes when a dream of Inuyasha shrinking and falling into darkness awoke me. Fear seemed to cling to my shaking body and I knew that something was wrong, terribly wrong, with Inuyasha.

After hurriedly packing my bags and leaving a note for my family I jumped into the well and back to the Feudal Era.
