Reina was an international singing star, a booming sensation. She was back in her very own home town of Tokyo. This was going to be the last concert of the year. Various people began setting up the stage. Reina sat in the background while fans started sitting in their seats, not that they were gonna stay in them long As two mildly chubby guys moved around a confetti blaster, Reina took a sip from her Dasani bottle. It definitely wasn't water in there.

Reina was tired of touring and was glad that this was going to be her last concert. She got on stage and braced herself for the wall of screaming sound coming. "REINA" they screamed while waving banners and flags. She began to sing which calmed down the crowd. They began rocking their hands side to side like drowns. Reina didn't know why she sang love ballads, with such conviction. She had never been in love.

The media speculated that it might be a certain Korean actor, or perhaps an American sports player but these stories were all false. Reina had only ever been friends with that certain Korean actor. The rumor about the sports player was something her manager Kaito liked to spread around.

The concert finally ended and Reina was rushed into her tour bus by her six body guards. She felt it was a bit too much but her manager liked the image it gave off. Kaito was talking on the phone, using his nice voice. He was most likely discussing the summer tour around big cities in America and Europe. Reina sighed, but there was a bright side. At least now that the tour was over she would get some much needed R&R in Bora Bora, or DR. She didn't really care where she was as long as her fame didn't get there with her. She checked her online Wikipedia site to find out where her music was least heard, New Zealand it was. Suddenly the tour bus stopped causing her to lurch forward. Reina looked out the window expecting to see the airport, but instead she saw a shrine. She turned to look at Kaito, for an explanation

"They'll be expecting you be at the airport, so your actually going to be leaving tomorrow" Kaito said. Reina nodded, that was a good plan. She needed time to decide on vacation spots, and they needed time to clear the air ways for her private jet.

"A very nice family has decided to take you in, and all of them signed contracts to media silence" Kaito said as he shoved her out with her duffle bag "No one is gonna be finding you, I promise. It's not gonna be like last time"

Reina stepped out of the tour bus which quickly disappeared out of sight. It was then she felt an eerie pulsating. She shook her head, what was going on. She reasoned with herself. She was tired, that was all. But she couldn't shake the feeling that something was calling to her. Yet all that was calling was an old man who came to greet her at the entrance.

"My granddaughter is big fan!" He cooed as he walked to the house. He motioned with his hands explaining just how big a fan his granddaughter was. When he reached the doorway, he took off his shoes and put on his inside flip flops. He then handed her a pair.

"Arigato" Reina said bowing slightly as she put them on. Suddenly a very dirty looking girl rushed in from another room.

"Made it" She said. She suddenly became star struck as she saw Reina.

"Hello" Reina said politely. She felt that she was about to be fan attacked.

"I AM YOUR BIGGEST FAN" the girl shouted. The grandfather had not been exaggerating at all.

"Kagome, why are you so dirty?" Grandpa asked. He shook his head slightly.

"I just came back from….." Kagome suddenly censored herself "...the gym"

Reina picked a leaf from her air and raised her eyebrow. It was clear that Kagome wasn't at the gym but Reina, being a private person, wasn't going to pry

"Oh that, I umm ... dropped my wallet in the bushes while coming back" Kagome quickly covered. That was strange but plausible.

A very nice looking middle aged woman came out next. She was smiling warmly.

"Hello you must be Reiko" The lady said.

"NO, it's Reina, Mom" Kagome corrected, slightly irritated.

"Oh I'm so sorry, anyway I've prepared a bath for you" She said still smiling widely. Reina didn't expect her to know, after all her demographic was the twelve to sixteen year old girl.

"Thank you ma'am" Reina said bowing again. She stepped into the bathroom. The woman handed her a towel and a robe. This family seemed nice enough, very average. Reina liked it here. It was almost as if she was normal. Now it was time to soak her troubles away. She stepped into the bath. Reina usually had soreness in her arm from holding the mike, she felt it drift away. She guessed people that ran a shrine, knew there herbal remedies.

Reina didn't mind sharing a bedroom with Kagome as she rattled about how big a fan she was. She owned all the CD's, watched all the music videos and was up to date on all the gossip. Kagome slept in a bag, as she was adamant about Reina taking the bed.

"So what about that rumor between you and…" Kagome began

"If it's about my love life, it's all false" Reina said in the darkness. "I've never been in love before, have you?"

Kagome was silent for a moment as if she as thinking about someone. Clearly the answer was yes.

"Oh ummm…." She said finally "You sing so many love songs, people are bound to think you're in love". Kagome was an expert in changing the subject. All those times she lied to her friends about the feudal era was making her really good at it.

"My mom is going to take you shopping tomorrow" Kagome continued urging the conversation into something else "I can't go but I wish I could" She murmured as an afterthought.

"Why can't you come?" Reina said. Kagome was a bit talkative but she was a nice girl to be around, someone normal.

"I have some where I have to be" Kagome sighed into the darkness. The warmness took over and they both fell fast asleep. The moon was crescent shaped in the sky, and midnight crept in.

Reina didn't know how long she had been asleep, but she was suddenly awoken by an eerie wind. The window had been blown open letting in an unforgiving cold air. Reina reluctantly got out of the covers to close it. She hoped that it wasn't a stalker or photographer. She didn't want to be photographed in Kagome's watermelon patterned jammies. Though they'd probably become really popular ever afterwards.

Reina heard the wind again this time it blew louder, it came from the hall. Reina crept out of the room. If it was a zombie, she would run. Vampire, she would grab a steak knife. Oh what was she thinking, there was no such thing. It was just the creepy darkness that got to her. She was cursing herself, wishing that she hadn't just watched Ringu the night before on the tour bus.

Reina made it into the backyard, where there was a mysterious shack. The wind was coming from in there. She walked cautiously towards it, hoping that it was just a dream. There was a dirty little well in the shack. The wind was coming from inside the well. Suddenly it became like a vortex. She tried to resist but the wind pulled her in.

She landed in the well. She somehow must have fallen in. She might have hit her head as well. Reina squinted in the darkness and struggled to climb back out. How did these vines get here? It was no time to question it now. It was a hard climb back up. She expected to be back in the dirty little shack but instead she was in the middle of a forest.

In the moonlight there was a boy with long silver hair. He stood with his back to her, looking out into the night. The wind gently caressed his hair. Where had she gone? What a strange dream to be having...

"Kagome, you're back a night early" The boy said. He turned around and realized that it wasn't Kagome.

"Who are you?" He said backing up.

"Who are you and where am I?" Reina asked as she rubbed her head. She had hit it, hard. That must be the only explanation.

"I fell into the well, but…" She said to herself

Inuyasha realized where this mysterious girl had come from. He thought for a moment, normal people couldn't pass through. This girl must have had some priestess powers in a previous life. This was a simple mix up. He could fix this

"You're dreaming" Inuyasha said. "Let me take you back to reality". He roughly grabbed her forearm and was prepared to toss her back into the well.

"Hey" She said surprised. She raised her hand in defense. A sudden burst of light from her palm sent Inuyasha reeling. This girl did have some priestess powers after all. In fact from the looks of it, she was very powerful.

Reina then noticed that the boy had dog ears, as if long silver hair wasn't weird enough. Inuyasha saw her gaze at them

"Lemme guess, you want to touch them" He said blandly.

But that was far from the truth. This boy was… a monster. Reina screamed and started running. She tried to remember what she had learned from all the scary movies she had watched. How could she stay alive? A root from a tree caught her foot and she fell forward into the ground. This was a classic slasher film, she was going to die. Damn her clumsiness those hours of choreography couldn't erase. She tried to get up but realized that her ankle was twisted.

The boy had caught up with her. She tried to crawl away but the pain in her ankle was too much.

"Stay away, monster" She said. She put her hand in front of her hoping the light that came from her palms would protect her.

"Stop, I'm not going to hurt you" He said annoyed but keeping his distance.

"Yea right" Reina said franticly. Inuyasha couldn't help but notice her soft supple skin and silky hair. The moonlight was playing tricks on him. She was beautiful indeed but He only loved Kagome.

"You're hurt, stop being a baby, let me take you to Kaiede" Inuyasha said calmly. This was not a slasher film after all. Reina tried to get up by herself.

"You're more stubborn than me" Inuyasha said as he hoisted her on to his back. Reina instinctively held on tight. That's right, she couldn't die in her own dreams, yet the pain in her ankle felt very real. It all felt very real. Maybe she had a meltdown somewhere along the line. But as she was gliding through the air, she realized that this was the most excitement she had all year.

She sat in a hut while her ankle soaked in some cooling liquid, she overhead them speaking outside. Kaiede became very frightened as she tended to her.

"She came from Kagome's era" Kaiede said "I've have seen her before. She be the re-incarnation of demon priestess"

"You mean the girl that caused the blood wars" Inuyasha said recalling a childhood tale. She was the unholy goddess who led a violent war against any that opposed her. Few found peace in those days, except maybe in the western lands ruled by inuyasha's father.

"Exactly the same one, send her back before she bring catastrophe again" Kaiede responded ominously

"Surly not this time, old Woman, she's been reincarnated as a human, probably due to all the bad Karma" Inuyasha snickered. "Plus, she might be able to break that cave barrier, since her past life was the one that set it up"

Two weeks ago, Kagome had sense a Jewel shard from inside a cave. The shard was plainly on the ground inside the cave undisturbed. Inuyasha wondered why the jewel shard had remained that way. Surely some squirrel demon would have snatched it by now. The answer became apparent the next second. There was powerful seal on the cave, one that Tetsaiga couldn't break. Inuyasha was wondered how he would get that fragment, and now his prayers had been answered.

Inuyasha went back into the hut where Reina was soaking her foot.

"I don't think this is a dream anymore" Reina said looking at the cooling water. She swirled it around with her foot.

"Hate to break it too ya" Inuyasha replied "But we got more important issues than your questionable sanity"

Dawn was breaking now. Kagome was probably worried, wondering where Reina might have walked off to in the night. How long would it take her to realize that it was here? Inuyasha was cautiously walking behind Reina to the cave.

"I'm Inuyasha by the way" Inuyasha said wondering now what her name was

"After this, I can go home right" Reina said walking with a limp. No name, whatever.

"Yea, yea just stop you're bitching" Inuyasha said. He didn't know why he said it though, Reina wasn't bitching at all, even on her sore ankle. She only wanted to go home, nothing was wrong with that.

As they came into the clearing, Inuyasha recognized a familiar and deadly scent. The figure of him also appeared. He looked as dangerous as ever.

"Sesshomaru" Inuyasha said. He took out a sword too big for the sheath.

"Well that violated the laws of physics" Reina murmured, not really understanding the seriousness of the situation. She looked at the dangerous man. He didn't seem to notice her though. He looked apathetic, and yet strangely beautiful. Reina wished that she wasn't wearing watermelon pattern Jammies right now.

"Step back" ordered Inuyasha. Reina took a step back, this wasn't her fight. She didn't want to get in that mans way.

I've tried to get the jewel shard a couple of different ways now" Sesshomaru mused "Looks like the demon took a few precautions"

Though Sesshomaru was calm, Inuyasha looked really angry, furious in fact.

"What interest do you have in the jewel shards" Inuyasha said. Fighting random demons for the shards was hard enough, fighting him for it would be impossible.

"I only need one to lure Naraku out of hiding" Sesshomaru said coldly "Perhaps I could take one of yours"

Luckily the shards were with Kagome now, and she was back in her time.

"I'd rather die" Inuyasha said. Sesshomaru didn't seem interested in fighting. His eyes shifted on to Reina who was leaning on her good foot at the moment.

"Tired of that other girl already?" Sesshomaru said then he realized what was going on "I have to say, your intelligence surprises me sometimes, perhaps you're smarter than a monkey after all. This girl is the reincarnation of the demon priestess, isn't she?"

"Back off Sesshomaru" Inuyasha said trying to draw the attention back to him. But it was a failure.

Sesshomaru noticed Reina for the first time. Her ebony locks effortlessly caressed her face. Her warm brown eyes gave her an aura of gentleness, and tranquility. The wind blew her sent to him, it was seductive. She truly was a goddess. Startled by his intense gaze, Reina tried to step backward but her foot wouldn't hold her weight and she tripped. Reina expected a cold rush to the floor but instead she landed in something soft. Reina found herself half in Sesshomaru's pelt, he caught her.

"How about you? Trade your life for the shard?" He said softly. Reina slowly got up. How was she going to get out of this? She nodded. She would give him the shard. Inuyasha might not take her home but at least she would be alive. She slowly walked into the cave past a barrier she couldn't feel. Inuyasha and Sesshomaru looked in. She picked up the shard. The shard vibrated in her hand. She had that déjà feeling that she had held the jewel at one point. Then a twinge of blood lust came into her mind. She was someone else, once, someone evil. She was going to hand the shard over but then she noticed something else in the cave.

There was a sword glowing faintly. She walked deeper knowing that none could follow her. This sword was hers, she knew it. She picked it up and suddenly a rush of energy fused with her body. She had stored her strength in this sword, that's why the barrier had to be unbreakable. Reina was definitely getting home now, with the shard. A bloodlust overwhelmed her body and she couldn't control herself. The power that rushed in her veins intoxicated her. She walked out of the cave smirking.

"You should have killed me when you had the chance" Reina said. She swiped her sword into the air which sent energy shocks all around. Inuyasha jumped out of the way while Sesshomaru stood there proudly as the energy stream hit him. He was pushed back but otherwise unharmed.

"Damn you" He said angrily at her. He took out his sword. Reina suddenly realized that she should have thought this out better. He was about to kill her but then Tensega suddenly pulsated. It was persuading him, to spare her. She had been rash. But luckily in Sesshomaru's hesitation she dropped the shard and ran.

She ran into the forest occasionally tripping. She ran towards the well that she fell out of and bumped into someone. Reina's ankle was really hurting now. She really needed to go see a doctor.

"Oww" Reina said cursing her clumsiness. She looked up and saw Kagome. She had tears on her face but then suddenly a look of wonder came across her it instead.

"I've been looking for you, everywhere" Kagome said. "How did you get here" She threw her arms around her. Reina could do without the fan service...

"There's no time for that, your Dog Friend is in trouble" Reina explained the situation to her as they ran back.

Sesshomaru and Inuyasha were fighting. The Jewel shard was still on the ground where Reina had dropped it.

"What should we do?" Reina said worriedly. Reina realized she was still holding the sword in her hand. She dropped the sword. The bloodlust from before had caused her to use it. He had even attacked Inuyasha in her moment of weakness.

Distance from the sword gave her clarity. She need not involve herself in the gruesome battle. Her ankle was pounding and her body was cold. Why didn't she at least take a jacket before she went outside in her embarrassing jammies?

Sesshomaru landed a decisive hit and Inuyasha was sent into the trees. Sesshomaru took this time to pick up the shard. He gazed over at Reina again. She was looking down at her slightly swollen ankle. She sat in the grass unable to stand anymore.

He walked calmly towards her as Kagome ran towards Inuyasha, to make sure he was alive.

"Humans are so fragile, are they not?" He mused looking at her ankle. "I wonder if this is punishment for your past life. To be weak, to be filthy"

Reina looked up at him unable to suppress the pain in her face. Still she tried to be arrogant

"I wondered what you did in your past life, to end up so ugly" She said sourly. What poor insult that was. It was clear to her, that he was beauty incarnated. He smirked unfazed by her sour expression and her surly insult.

He grabbed her ankle and squeezed. A blistering pain overcame her and she let out a blood curdling screamed. What kind of sadistic bastard was this guy? He let go.

"You're sick" Reina said blackly reaching for her sword. She grabbed it and was about swing.

"Rotate it" He said.

Suddenly Reina realized that the pain in her ankle was gone, he had slipped something back into place. A look of relief came over her face.

"You fixed it" Reina said, She looked up to see his retreating back. He was leaving.

"Not so fast" Said a voice from the bushes. Inuyasha had just been revived by Kagome. He was limping slightly.

"You should take this chance to live, do not get in my way" Sesshomaru said

Kagome was running back to Reina now.

"I heard you scream, did he hurt you?" Kagome said worried

"He fixed me" Reina said to Kagome's surprise. Reina stood up, her ankle was sore, but it was only sore not dislocated.

Sesshomaru looked back one more time to Reina as if he was deciding something. He then turned into a ball of light. The light rushed at her. Reina had no time to react. She felt her body whirling through the air. She hated roller coasters. She was going to be sick. But, his warm body soothed her, and his pelt brushed against her cheek. This wasn't so bad

Reality came back into place. They were in some sort of much darker forest now. Where had he taken her? Reina looked around for that familiar large tree she had seen before but it wasn't there. They weren't there. He had taken her somewhere else.

"What are you doing" Reina said. She had just been kidnapped. "You can't just..."

He stared at her threateningly for a moment. She shut up because she was treading on dangerous ground.

"What I mean to say, what is someone as powerful as you need with me?" Reina reworded. She hated boosting this guy's ego but she had to get out of her. He smirked again.

"You're amusing. Consider this a debt for sparing your life and fixing your broken appendage" He said. In the back of his mind he was wondering what compelled him to take her. She was just a frail human being, and yet disgustingly enough he found himself attracted to her.

A whining voice came out of the bushes

"Sesshomaru, why were you gone for so long" It said. A little imp appeared. Reina twitched back, it was horrible. The imp was dancing around frantically and whining. Then it noticed Reina

"Who is this filthy creature" It said looking at her. She scoffed indignantly

"I'll have you know, that this creature makes 100k a year" Reina said folding her arms.

"She speaks in tongues" The imp said aiming a staff at her.

"Jaken, she will be staying with us for a while" Sesshomaru said. A while was an understatement, if he had his way, she would be with them for the rest of her life... Even if it was against her will

"A companion for Rin?" Jaken inquired. A little girl suddenly came out of the bushes ridding on a two headed dragon. The girl caught sight of Reina. Her eyes widened and she hopped of the dragon.

"So pretty" She said rushing at her. Reina stepped back and felt the force of being tackled to the ground. The girl was surprisingly strong for her size.

_ The Day Passes_

Reina curled up against the fire with Jaken and Rin. Sesshomaru had walked off by himself. They were roasting yams.

"So how did you end up here?" Reina asked yawning. Rin put her hands up to the fire to warm up her palms.

"My family was slaughtered by bandits" Rin said. Reina twitched, she didn't like sad stories. "I was alone for a while and the Sesshomaru-sama found me. She grabbed the yam and blew on it.

"I'm sorry" Reina said, not sure what else to say.

"Do you want some?" She asked. She held out a yam for her.

"No its okay" Reina said recalling her managers stern voice. She still had five pounds to lose before her next tour. That life seemed kind of far off though.

"What about you Jaken" Reina said closing her eyes and lying down. This was so comfy, she was planning to escape but a few hours of sleep couldn't hurt that much.

"I was saved by Sesshomaru-sama, and have followed him ever since" Jaken said proudly

"What about you" Jaken finally asked curiously. He had been wondering why his master would bring along another human girl.

"I'm not from around here. But I guess I can say that I'm a singer." Reina said softly. Jaken wasn't really interested in that, he wanted to know why Sesshomaru had brought her here.

"So you're some sort of magical singing witch, and that's why Lord Sesshomaru brought you" Jaken said

"Huh…. No… I'm not sure why I'm here, maybe it's because I'm the reincarnation of the …." Reina had forgotten what it was… "Oh… the Demon Priestess"

Jaken's eyes widened and he stared closely at her. Realization dawned on his face. She was indeed the human form of that wretchedly powerful blood princess.

"I see it now" Jaken said.

Reina opened her eyes.

"Did you know her?" Reina asked. She wanted to know where the blood lust came from. It was as if there was evil lurking inside her, something that was very difficult to suppress.

-To be continued-
