Moon: Hey, everyone. Sorry for such a long break. I was having problems trying to figure out how to start my story. Yes, this is the second of the Quest Through Time Arc. Oh right the discaimer. I don-

Inu: Just hurry up and start the story all ready!

Moon: Inuyasha, what did I say about interrupting?

Inu: Not to.

Moon: That's right, so shut up. Anyways, I don't own the characters of Inuyasha. To see who I do own check My Characters on From Time to Time. Thank you. Now on with the story!

Inu: Finally!

Moon: Inuyasha.

Inu: :looks at Moon nervously: Hehe. I have to go.


Friends from the Past

Prologue

Foot steps echoed through the dark forest as a shadowy figure ran. The figure stopped and looked around, listening. Crack! They spun to face the source of the sound, their red hair whipping around as well. They heard the rustling of leaves and took a step back. A shadow entered the small clearing. It stepped into the small amount of light and the red-haired figure saw that it was only a doe. They released their held breath and turned back around to leave. They, however, bumped into something - or someone- solid. They looked up and their emerald green eyes met the gaze of crimson ones of a man.

"No," the red-haired figure whispered in a very much female voice. This caused the man to start laughing.

"Oh, yes," he chuckled. Suddenly, a tentacle shot out of the man (bet that tells you who he is) and went around the female. It struck her in the back and she felt something else enter her body. She screamed in pain for a minute, and then her eyes became glazed over. Her face, which had shown terror a moment before, now showed no emotion at all.

"Now you are under my control, Kioke," said Naraku.

"Yes, master," replied Kioke in an emotionless voice. Naraku started to laugh again and he and Kioke disappeared into the still night.


Moon: Hey there. I know it's not very long but remember that 1: it is only my second story, 2: it is also a prologue. Anyways, I will try to post the next chapter in about a week, so kee-

Inu: A WEEK!? It takes a week for you to write one lousy chapter!?

Kag: Inuyasha, sit. :sighs: Moon needs to figure out her plot and characters. Also, I believe she said not to interrupt her again or she would take the Tetsusaiga and hide it so you won't find it.

Inu: :mumbles: Sorry.

Moon: Thanks, Kagome. As I was saying, keep an eye on here. Also, I won't always be doing these end things, but I will try to do as often as possible. Ok, I know I'm forgetting something.

Ship: The poll!

Moon: Oh, right! Thanks, Shippo. :hands Ship a lollypop: I have a poll that can be accessed from my bio. It's about your favorite pairings, so that I can write fanfics based on them when I need a break from my Quest Through Time Arc. Alright, let's wrap this up. Thanks for reading and rember to review because believe it or not, what you say has an effect on my stories. Ok, that's all for now. Thanks again for reading and don't forget to review. Bye.
