Against the Odds
Disclaimer: I do NOT own Inu-Yasha, however much I want to...any characters that don't appear in the manga or anime are mine.
A/N: I just felt like writing this. It's just a neat idea I got while baby- sitting. I get ideas at really weird times...lol...

~ Chapter One: In which Inu-Yasha is impatient, and Kagome returns to the past. ~
Inu-Yasha stood at the edge of the well, waiting for Kagome to come up. Shippo bounced around him, "Inu-Yasha, when will Kagome get here?"
"I don't know. She had another one of those tests..." he replied. "I think I'll go and see." He jumped down the well, with Shippo yelling after him. As he floated through time via the Bone Eater's Well, he thought of Kagome, and Kikyo. 'Kikyo's dead," he thought insistently. 'She's not coming back.' Inu-Yasha landed in 20th century Tokyo, and jumped out of the well.
Being cautious, he opened the door of the well house, to make sure no one was there. There wasn't, so he strode out of the little hut, and over to Kagome's house. He opened the door to see Sota and his grandfather eating dinner. "Hey," he said to get their attention, "where's Kagome?"
Sota looked joyus to see his hero, "Inu-Yasha! Um...Kagome should be home soon."
Grampa looked disturbed that there was a demon in his home, but answered civilly enough, "She's home. She's either packing her bag in her room, or in the shower." He continued to eat.
"Do you want some dinner, Inu-Yasha?" Sota asked eagerly.
The hanyou sighed and folded his arms. "Thanks, but no thanks, kid." He left to find Kagome.
*~*
Kagome was just in her room, packing. The yellow bag was stuffed with food, water, and clothes. She still wore her uniform. The door opened, and she swung around. The first thing she saw was the red haori. She looked up to see Inu-Yasha's white hair and dog ears. His amber eyes were annoyed. "Hello, Inu-Yasha."
"Aren't you ready yet?" he inquired sullenly.
"Almost," Kagome put a bottle of Advil in and zipped her pack. She placed the Shikon shard around her neck. "All ready!" she put her heavy bag over her shoulders.
"Finally..." Inu-Yasha turned to leave, and Kagome followed.
They stopped in the dining room, "Bye Gramps! Seeya Sota!" Kagome called. "Tell Mom I said bye!"
"Have fun in the feudal era," Grampa waved to his granddaughter. "I'll tell everyone that you're sick."
Kagome sweatdropped, "Uh...Gramps, you don't have to do that..."
Sota's mouth was full, but he waved at his sister as she turned to leave. Inu-Yasha dragged the girl away, and back to the well house. He picked her up by the pack and held her over the well. "All right, let's go," he dropped her back to feudal Japan, and jumped in after her.
*~*
"Kagome!" Shippo jumped into her arms, and nearly knocked her back into the well, if not for Inu-Yasha's arm.
"Hi, Shippo," she laughed. Sango and Miroku were sitting by the remains of a fire. "Hi Sango! Hey Miroku!"
They stood, and Sango spoke first, "Welcome back, Kagome." She smiled.
"Hello Kagome," Miroku began walking over to her, but was stopped by Sango. "Wha-" he began, but stopped at the look Sango gave him.
Kirara meowed, and Shippo jumped down, "Kirara!" He began petting her and she purred.
"Now that the hellos are done, can we go?" Inu-Yasha asked impatiently.
Kagome sighed, "Yes. Are you guys ready?"
The others nodded, and the group started their journey for the shards of the sacred Shikon no Tama.
