CHAPTER 1 NEW HOPE

Kagome looked down at the body of a small boy who had been sucked dry of his blood. She sighed as she thought of the boy's life ending in such a horrific fashion as to feel the very blood sucked out of the arties and veins. It sickned her that the boy had died this way but the worst part was that he was not the first nor would he be the last. She was the priestess of the town but she was powerless to stop these three vampires that had moved into the area. She was not the only one who was powerless though and to her that made it so much worse. Inuyasha had slaughtered the vampires countless times but they always kept reappearing to feast the next night. Mirokou had tried to purify the ground around the village, Shippo had tried to erect a foxfire barrier, and even Sango and Kiaria the tried to fight but no matter how many times they tried to stop these vampires they could not see an end to the conflict.

"Try not to think about it", Inuyasha said as he put his hand on Kagome's left shoulder.

"Well what am I supposed to do", Kagome asked with a hint of anger. "This town relies on us to protect it so why cant we"?

Inuyasha sighed he hated to see Kagome like this but there was nothing he could do, he did not have an answer.

"Maybe we could find out what they want and bargain with them", Mirokou said.

"They want blood monk", Sango said angrily, she couldn't believe Mirokou was that stupid as to believe that these demons could be bargained with.

"Maybe we could find out who sent them", Shippo said "and we could uh…. kill him".

Inuyasha looked at Shippo, in truth he'd thought the same thing once but he couldn't figure out who, especially since all of his enemies were dead. What they needed was what Kagome called a 'guide'. Then he smiled for once he had an answer, he just hoped he had time to act on it.

"Kagome how long till night time", Inuyasha asked

Kagome looked at her watch "About four hours why"?

"I have an idea come with me to the well we're going back to your time", Inuyasha quickly replied with a grin.

"My time",Kagome asked as Inuyasha knelt for her to climb onto his back.

"If we hurry we can make it back before they come",Inuyasha said "Now climb on"

Kagome shrugged and climbed onto Inuyasha's back, she had barely climbed on before he took off towards the well .

--

As Inuyasha and Kagome appeared at the bottom of the well in Kagome's time Inuyasha hurriedly explained as his plan to Kagome. Who smiled her boyfriend's plan just might work. Quickly they scrambled out of the well and rushed towards the house.

An old man looked out of his private jet's window as his jet left Hawaii. His wife was next to him and fast asleep, for her it had been a busy day of shopping and trying on clothes while he had been stuck in meetings all day.Now they were flying back to Russia to see their son and daughter. He sighed as he looked out the window he missed the old days but he had to keep up with the times.His cellphone started to vibrate in his front shirt pocket, quickly he answered it on the second ring.

"Hello this is Tom", the old man said.

"Tomas it's me Kagome", the voice on the other end said.

"Kagome", Tomas said "It's been awhile, how are you"?

"I'm not doing so good Tomas", Kagome replied "there is trouble back in the fuedal era".

"What's wrong", Tomas asked as his wife Annastasia awoke.

"Three vampires are attacking the town a man and two women, the worst part is that we slaughter them but we can't seem to make them stay dead".

"Night time or day time attacks", Tomas asked.

"Night", Kagome replied. "And they look European possibly Russian"

"Any strange signs appear at the sites of the feedings", Tomas asked.

"Yes I took a few pictures of their latest feeding site", Kagome said as she plugged her digital camera into her mom's laptop and started to unload the pictures so that she could email them to Tomas. "I can email them to you right now".

"Great I'll look over them and get back to you", Tomas said as he grabbed his PDA out of his briefcase.

"That was Kagome", Anastasia asked.

"Yeah", Tomas replied as he turned on his PDA "it appears that there is trouble in the fuedal era".

"Oh", what is it", Anastasia asked.

"Vampires', Tomas replied.

"Your brethren", Anastasia said with a smile

"Maybe", Tomas said as he signed into his email account "but supposedly these appear to be immortal".

"Immortal", Anastasia asked. "They may really be your brethern then".

"I don't think so", Tomas said as he looked through the pics. There had been six total the first two had been normal feeding layouts it was the third and fourth pictures that worried him though. In the third picture was a rock that had a languge written on it that he didn't expect to see. It was the language of plains vampires. That surprised him plains vampires weren't usually found on islands they were usually found in places where there were a large expanse of grasslands not woods like Japan.

"See how there are leaf clippings and root parts here", Tomas asked as he showed Anastasia the pictures.

"Yes what does it mean", Anastasia asked.

"It means that we are dealing with vampires called Plains Vamps. They bind their souls to plants so that the plants must be destroyed first otherwise as long as the plants live they live."

"Oh boy", Anastasia said.

"How would you feel about taking a little trip to Japan", Tomas asked.

"We are going to try and help them", Anastasia asked.

"We are going to try and travel back in time to the battle", Tomas replied.

"I want my axe", Anastasia said as Tomas started to dial Kagome's number.
