Chapter One*~ "Letter of Acceptance"
It was a nice, clear day in Feudal Japan. Tufts of cloud lazily floated across the sky, birds chirped merrily in the trees, and a soft breeze rippled through the grass. In a clearing in Inuyasha Forest sat an old, dried up well. It was an artifact of true mystery to the villagers of Edo. For if you were to throw anything down it-mainly demon bones-they would vanish. The Bone Eaters Well is what it was called, for this very reason. But it also had one other secret, and only a few people knew of it. It could send two select people through time. These two people were Inuyasha, a half demon and Kagome Higurashi, a regular modern day school girl. For nearly a year these two, along with friends, had been hiking all over ancient Japan in search of the Scared Jewel shards that had been shattered and scattered. They traveled with Miroku the monk, Sango the demon exterminator, Kirara, Sango's pet cat demon, and Shippou the young fox demon. On this fine day, these four friends were back at the village taking a short, well deserved break from their adventures.
Kagome walked slowly through the woods, lugging her extremely heavy pack with her. She was headed for the Bone Eaters Well, to go home and stock up on supplies.
'Inuyasha said to hurry back, I wonder how mad he'll be if I'm a little late, hmm...oh well, why should I rush around for him!' she thought indignantly. 'Inuyasha will just have to wait until I catch up on some of my school work'. True it had been a long time since she had been to school and no doubt there would be a large pile of missed homework and assignments she would have to make up. 'It's such a nice day too, maybe Sango and the others will get a chance to rest up instead of rush around like usual.' She thought trying to look on the brighter side of why they had come back to the village she reached the well and heaved her pack over the edge where it fell and disappeared through time. She then slide both her legs over the wall of the well and also fell through time.
"Inuyasha can you PLEASE stop fidgeting like that, it's getting very annoying." Sango said exasperated.
"Sango is right Inuyasha, don't worry Kagome will be back soon." Miroku added.
"Shuttup! I'm not fidgeting, Kagome can stay in her stupid time for all I care!" Inuyasha growled.
"Ye should all take this time to rest. Ye may be half demon, Inuyasha, but the others are not and therefore tire more easy." Kaede spoke sagely from the corner of the hut, where she was sorting her herbs.
"Feh! Whatever." Inuyasha spat. He scowled, stood up, and stormed out of the hut, knocking off the door hanging on his way out.
"I hope Kagome comes back soon, Inuyasha is always in such a bad mood when she leaves." Shippou complained.
Inuyasha was standing next to the well, glaring at it, like it was planning to attack him.
'Stupid Kagome, what's so important about that damn school thing anyways!' He thought angrily. "You better get back here soon, we have shards to find!" he bellowed down the well. "Hmmph!" Inuyasha plopped himself on the grass and leaned back against the well. He stared up into the blue sky and felt the wind brush through his hair. His ears drooped and the angry scowl on his face softened, 'Kagome, please come back soon...'
Kagome landed gently on her feet. She picked up her bag and climbed up the rope ladder out of the well.
"Ahh...It's nice to be home again." Kagome sighed happily. She dashed up the stairs, quickly opened the door out of the well house, and stepped outside. As much as she enjoyed the rural country side of the Sengoku Jidai, she sometimes found herself homesick for modern Tokyo. She ran across the yard, up the stairs to her house. "Everyone, I'm home!" Kagome called as she walked through the front door. She removed her shoes and dropped her bag in the front entry before continuing into the kitchen.
"Kagome, dear, come and have something to eat." Mrs. Higurashi called from the kitchen. Sota and her grandfather were seated at the table eating dinner when she walked in.
"Hey, sis, how's it going?" Sota asked, "Is Inuyasha with you?"
"Of course not, he's back in his time, why would he be here?" Kagome snapped.
"Now, now Kagome there's no need to be rude to your brother, we've only seen you for two minutes, don't start arguing." Her grandfather scolded.
"Sorry, Sota. No, Inuyasha is back in the Feudal Era resting with the others." Kagome explained to him. "I've really just come back to get some supplies, and I think I'll try to get some studying done."
"Here, Kagome, eat up!" Mrs. Higurashi urged as she set a bowl of uden in front of her daughter. Uden was Kagome's favorite food, Mrs. Higurashi had had a feeling that Kagome would be coming home today and decided to made it for her when she came home. How she knew Kagome would be coming home, was a good question-only Mrs. Higurashi knew the answer herself, at least for now..."Oh and there's some tempura left too if you'd like some."
"Thanks Mom, mmm uden!" Kagome replied happily before digging into her food.
"Wow, when was the last time you ate?" Sota asked staring at his sister, who was eating almost as fast and ferociously as Inuyasha...almost.
Kagome placed her bowl down and leaned back into her chair. 'It's nice to have something different to eat for a change, instead of ramen for days on end.' Kagome thought dully.
"Oh, Kagome, I almost forgot, this came in the mail for you while you were gone-two days ago, I think." Mrs. Higurashi explained as she held out a fat envelope. Kagome looked at it curiously, she never got mail. She took the letter and was just about to turn it over when the phone rang.
"I'll get it." Her grandfather got up from the table and walked to the front entry. "Hello?... No, I'm sorry, she has mono again...yes I will be sure to-
"GRAMPS!" Kagome jumped out of her seat, knocking over her chair in the process, rushed to the front entry and grabbed the phone from him. "I'm right here! You don't have to make up excuses when I'm back home!"
"Hmmph! Well I'm sorry. I was just trying to be helpful!" he exclaimed indignantly before marching back into the kitchen.
"Hello? Hi Yuka!"Kagome exclaimed brightly, 'I haven't talked to my friends in so long!'
"Hey Kagome, how are you feeling? I heard you caught the SARS virus and you had been in the hospital, I'm glad you've recovered!" Yuka said brightly.
"Oh, yeah, it was...err...a pretty mild case of it, I guess," Kagome stammered. 'Gramps, you told them I had SARS?!!' She could feel her left eye twitching.
"Well, I called to see how you were doing and to tell you...well...I don't know if your going to want to hear this..."
"Go ahead, what's wrong Yuka?" Kagome had an uneasy feeling, Yuka sounded a bit nervous...
"Well...okay don't be mad but..." Hojo'sgoingoutwiththatseventhgradegirlI'msoosorrypleasedon'tbemadWetoldhernottoobutshedidntlistentousandIthoughtHojolikedyousopleaseKagomedon'tbeupset!!!"
Kagome, knowing Yuka for a long time now, might have been the only person able to understand what she had just said.
"Really? Wow, I'm really glad that he finally got over me. I always thought that they would make a cute couple." Kagome said cheerfully. 'Good, maybe now Hojo won't keep asking me out on dates. Hojo is just a friend, and I'm glad that I didn't have to tell him I never really liked him as a boyfriend.' Kagome thought.
"Kagome, your taking this much better than I thought you would." Yuka said sounding very surprised at Kagome's response.
"Yeah...well I got to go, I'll see you soon, bye!" Kagome hung up the phone. She turned and picked up her bag. 'I should try to hurry back so Inuyasha doesn't come looking for me.' She thought, 'he can be such a pain sometimes!' She made her way upstairs and opened the door to her room.
'Alright then, let's see what do I need... hmm... clothes, bandages, my school books...' She began to hum as she packed. 'I should bring some ramen back for Inuyasha, too.' Kagome reached up to brush a strand of hair out of her face when she realized she was still holding her letter in her hand. 'I completely forgot about this, I should read it before I leave, no telling how long I'll be in the Sengoku Jidai for.' Kagome sat down on her bed, turned the letter over, and read the address, she gasped. The address read:
Ms. K. Higurashi
Currently in the Sengoku Jidai
Higurashi Shrine
Tokyo,
Japan
Not only was it odd that it was written in English, but what was written made her freeze.
"Currently In the Sengoku Jidai..." 'How do they know I was there? Better question, WHO knows that I was in the Sengoku Jidai, what else do they know about my secret life?' Kagome thought panic stricken.
"Wha...what's going on here?" she stuttered. The envelope was thick and heavy and made of a tough yellow paper. The address was written in emerald green ink. She turned it over, to reveal a seal bearing a coat of arms; a lion, an eagle, a badger, and a snake surrounding a large letter "H". Shakily she opened the envelope and pulled out the letter. Now, If the address wasn't shocking enough, then this definitely was. After reading it through once, in utter disbelief, she read it through again, this time out loud:
HOGWARTS SCHOOL

"This letter says that, I'm..I'm...a witch?? I can't believe it, I can't be a witch, this has got to be a joke!"
Kagome had an uncertain feeling about this whole thing though...'Is it really that crazy that I could be a witch? After everything that's happened to me, is it really that crazy an idea? I should go and ask mom about this.' Kagome was shaking, she jumped off her bed, dashed out of the room, and down the stairs.
"MOM! MOM! You won't believe this!" She spotted her mom, she was outside taking laundry off the clothes line. Kagome ran out the back door.
Mrs. Higurashi had just taken the last shirt off the line, when she looked up in time to see her daughter running toward her, with a worried look on her face.
"What's wrong, Kagome?" Mrs. Higurashi asked concerned.
"Look at this! It's that letter! Read it, look at what it says!" Kagome exclaimed, out of breath.
Mrs. Higurashi took the letter and began to read it. When she had finished, she looked up at Kagome, smiling and said, "I wondered when this day would come."
