It was midnight Dumbledore puttered around his office making preparations. He had to do this right, or there would be serious ramifications, not just for his own world. As he carefully started sketching a design in silver dust on his floor, he thought over how he had come to this decision. Minerva had approached him earlier that day and told him, in essence, that she and the other teachers needed a vacation. They asked for two weeks leave, more than reasonable after their years of faithful service. It was just the timing that was so bad, as school started tomorrow. Now he had just a couple hours to find short-term replacements for his teachers. The existence of parallel universes had intrigued him for a while now. This was a chance for him to test a theory of his. If it worked, he would get proof of these universes and a set of teachers to boot. If it didn't then he could always ask some old friends and still get them here in time for the Welcoming Feast. The circle now finished, Dumbledore raised his wand and started murmuring an incantation he had created especially for this occasion.

It was a beautiful, sunny, summer day in feudal Japan. Kagome had prepared a picnic, to commemorate the anniversary of her first trip to feudal Japan. And her first meeting with Inuyasha. As she spread out the tablecloth she thought about all the people she had met since then. There was Shippo, Miroku, and Sango to begin with. They were close friends, and had fought along side her in many battles. There was Kikiyo, Inuyasha's old friend and lover, who had died long ago. She herself was a reincarnation of the strong and lovely priestess. Kikiyo has been resurrected with part of her soul. There was Naraku, the once human demon, whom had driven a wedge between Inu and Kikiyo. He once loved Kikiyo. His other misdeeds were cursing Miroku's father, a curse which carried on to Miroku, and would carry on to any sons Miroku might have before it killed him, and enchanting Sango's younger brother, forcing him to destroy their village and killing the inhabitants. Only he and Sango survived. There was also Sesshomaru, Inu's half brother, a full demon. He was bent on defeating Inu, and taking the tessaiga, even though he can't wield it, being full demon. As Kagome reminisced about these people, some friends, some not, she thought that she wouldn't be the same person had she never met them. Her friends soon began to arrive, drawn by the scent of her cooking. She had taken special care to make sure all her cooking was perfect for their anniversary, and the sweet scents wafted away, pulled by the light breeze that teased the warm summer air. Shippo was the first to show up, bouncing and giving a cheerful "Hello Kagome!" before being seated and starting on the appetizers. Miroku and Sango arrived together, not far behind. They were, for once, not angry or bickering with each other, but smiling and chatting amiably. They must have just got over an argument, she thought, as she waited for her last friend to arrive, tardy as usual. As he came striding out of the foliage that surrounded their picnic spot, he sheathed his sword, tessaiga. He sat down gloomily, without as much as a "Hey, Kagome". Now that everyone else was seated, Miroku and Sango, if she wasn't mistaken, hand in hand, Kagome settled herself onto the ground. She began passing out food, pausing when she came, at last, to Inuyasha.

"Well?" she said, "Are you going to tell us what is bothering you, or do I have to force it out of you?"

"Nothing." he said, turning away.

"I know there is something bothering you, so just spit it out, and do it before all the food gets cold." Inuyasha looked like he just noticed the food.

"It's nothing. I thought I saw something out in the woods." He gestured to some trees and hurried on. "But I was wrong. There was nothing there. Nothing to worry about." Inuyasha looked Kagome straight in the eye, but said nothing further on the subject. After a minute she broke eye contact, and gave him his food. Unbeknownst to those in the clearing, two of those 'nothings' were watching the clearing intently, not even aware of each other's presence. Inside the clearing, the shouts were getting louder.

"This is delicious!" someone exclaimed.

"I didn't know that you could make food this good." That incredulous voice had clearly been Inuyasha's.

"Are you saying that my food is normally bad?" Kagome asked with rising anger.

"No, no. Not at all. It's just-"

"It's just that the little human girl did something right for once?"

"No, that's not at all what I said. I-" a bewildered Inuyasha started to stammer. He was surprised. He had just tried to give her a compliment, that was all. Now she was upset at him, and he couldn't tell why.

"Go! Get out of my sight. If my cooking is that bad, then just don't eat it!" Kagome ordered.

"But I was trying to say it was go-" Inuyasha was now truly bewildered, as was everyone else. This was not at all like Kagome. He was beginning to get worried.

"Go!"

"But I-"

"He was just trying to be ni-" Sango tried to interject.

"GO!" Kagome bellowed. And he did, casting one final glance over his shoulder as he did. All that revealed was Shippo and Sango trying desperately to calm down Kagome, who still seemed to be fuming. Inuyasha gave a thought to where he was going now. He had planed to ask Kagome if he could come to her time, and stay there a while with her. All of a sudden, his sensitive ears detected a strange humming he had come, over the years to associate with magic being done. He stiffened as he realized that the sound came from where he had just left Kagome. He whirled around and started back for the clearing, where he could now see a faint silvery glow. He arrived just as the glow surrounded the group on the tablecloth. He sliced into the glow with his claws and attempted to fight his way to Kagome, getting so close, but falling just short at the last moment. He was so intent on this goal that he did not notice one of the two 'nothings' from earlier also darting into the glow. Inuyasha braced himself for whatever lay ahead.
