Disclaimer: I do not own Naruto or Inuyasha

Hey everybody, I have been reading some crossovers lately and found that in everyone I read it always had Naruto as a demon, or coming there from a different world, never from the same world as Kagome, and reincarnated. Well here is my attempt at it hopefully it isn't a failure seeing as how I always do things on a whim, oh yeah just a warning there will be no NaruKaga pairing at all their relationship is basically friendship and brother-sister.

Summary: Naruto and Kagome are from the same world, and both make their way to the feudal era after an accident, Naruto was reincarnated just like Kagome, but he is the creator of the Shikon jewel, and remembers all of his past lives, even when he was a ninja working hard to achieve the goal of being Hokage.

"memories"

Chapter one: Returning to where we first crossed paths

Naruto looked at the mirror, he was sure he forgot something as he watched his reflection stare back at him, he checked his uniform, nothing was out of place. He checked his hair to see if he had a bed head, nope it was tame today, and laid flat and was soft like silk. He checked the time, it was still an hour till he had school, now for the life of him he couldn't remember what he was forgetting.

"NARUTO NAMIKAZE!" An angry female voice rang through his entire home as he looked at his door in fear, remembering he had to help his best friend Kagome with her chores at the shrine.

'Ah crap I knew I forgot something, I hope the old man would forgive me, but I don't think Kagome ever will' The blond thought as he ran for his life, jumping out of his room through the window as a young teenage girl with black hair and eyes glaring at him, running from his fate as he ran to the shrine a few minutes away.

Kagome yelled at him while she was trying to catch up to him, everyone living nearby laughed at the two, they were like siblings always fighting every morning. Everyone knew the boy had a rough life, his mother and father died in a car crash on their way to a business meeting, his only other family member dealt with his pain by going to America to go to school. Kyuubi was a troublemaker exactly like his younger brother Naruto except he had their mothers fire red hair and eyes, while Naruto took after his American father, and had blond hair and blue eyes.

They ran until they reached the top of the stairs of the Higurashi shrine, the head priest stood laughing as he watched the tired forms of the two teenagers in front of him panting, trying to catch their breaths. Naruto was the first to recover as he watched the old man, in front of him who was Kagome's grandfather he always watched over him and Kyuubi when he was younger.

"That's a new record Naruto, I think you beat the one you made last week, you are a whole five minutes earlier than usual." He smiled

"Don't encourage him to be late grandpa!" Kagome growled, Naruto was laughing while rubbing the back of his head, as his tanned skin paled at Kagome's glare.

"At least he works Kagome, and I get to tell his all about the ancient artifacts whenever I want." the older man sulked, Kagome waved off her anger as she went to prepare their lunches for the day. Naruto still felt like he forgot something, he looked at his watch to check the date, when he saw the date May 13, he smiled brightly.

"Hey old man can I postpone tomorrow's lecture on ancient artifacts, I sorta got plans I totally forgot about." Naruto bowed, he knew this was the only way to make the elder priest allow him to go, Naruto was his heir because Souta didn't want to become the next head priest and wanted to become a famous soccer player.

"Ah I see you finally remembered, it's okay you still got a few years left until you have to take your studies seriously." Grandpa smiled, as he continued to sweep the stairs before he saw his apprentice running for his life and his granddaughter chasing him.

Naruto smiled at him before making his way to Kagome's home for breakfast, when he reached the door it swung open and a small figure jumped at him, pushing him down.

"Ow, Oh Naruto can you help me practice for the soccer tryouts next week?" A small brunette boy said, while he sat on top of Naruto looking down at him with his eyes sparkling, Naruto chuckled when he saw the child's eye's before he replied.

"Sure Souta, but why not tell them you play with me on a regular basis you'll definitely get a spot!" Naruto laughed, as he watched the boys eyes glow in admiration, Souta knew that Naruto was the soccer god ever since he first stepped on the field, but shocked everyone when he chose the life of a simple priest, everyone knew that he would have had the chance of being a famous soccer player playing internationally.

"Why don't you ever want to pursue a career being a soccer player?" Souta asked curiously, he always wanted to ask his idol why he never wanted to continue in the field many thought he was born the be on.

"Because I always wanted to be a priest, I don't know why it was like a calling, you know like how you feel when you step on the field about to play a game, just that for me it was being a priest." Naruto knew his logic was far fetched, but he didn't know any other way to explain it, instead of telling him about his memories about his past lives. Souta understood what his older friend and idol was saying, but he didn't like it at all, but he knew what it was like to chase a dream.

"Naruto we got to leave, the train is going to leave in fifteen minutes!" Kagome yelled, she was dressed in her sailor uniform, two backpacks in her hands, she tossed one into Naruto's hand as she ran past him. Naruto took a few minutes to process what Kagome said as she ran right past him, when he understood when she said he bolted after her. They ran as fast as they could, the doors to the train were closing they made one last dash before making it inside, both were tired and trying to catch their breaths.

"Thank god we made it!" Kagome gasped as she started to laugh, Naruto joined her until he thought about what grandpa got for Kagome on her birthday, it was usually an ancient artifact and she would always give it to him when she remembered.

"Hey Kagome, what did you get for your pre-birthday present?" Kagome grimaced as she remembered the dried imps hand her grandfather gave her.

"An dried water imp's hand, why you want it don't you?" She knew the answer, her childhood friend was as weird as her grandpa, that's why they got along so well.

"Of course you know I love those kind of things!" Naruto exclaimed his eyes glowed at the thought of getting the artifact in his hands.

"Oh yeah grandpa got a whole shipment of a shika-no-something jewel too, he said it was an ancient jewel that has four souls." If Kagome was paying attention to her friend, she would have realized how he winced when he heard of the jewel, as he thought about his previous life when he created the jewel from his heart after a constant battle against thousands of demons, he was still fighting even when he was sucked into the jewel. He was finally released when his last protector took the jewel into the other world, the process between the world of the living and the world of the dead released him, and he was born alongside the reincarnation of the priestess who protected him.

"Oh wait I totally forgot, I gave that hand to Buyo," Kagome suddenly said dragging Naruto out of his thoughts, when Naruto learned that she gave an antique to her cat he began sulking and ignoring her as she tried to apologize, they walked to school. Kagome's friends met up with them on the way. They spent the whole day trying to get him out of his depression, but when Hojo came by to say hello to Naruto before he went to his club activities, the one thing that shocked all the girls is when Naruto jumped into Hojo's arm and start bawling, Hojo didn't seem bothered, to him it was a daily occurrence.

"Hojo, big sis bullied me again, first she chased me this morning again, and now she brought up my hopes and shot me down when she said she gave her cat and authentic water imp hand to her cat, waaaa." Hojo simply laughed as Naruto told him about his day, Kagome simply groaned, now she knew about his fascination about those weird things, but she didn't know it would put him into depression, it was almost unnatural for him to be sad, he had a face that should always have a smile placed on it, he was like the sun always happy.

"You don't actually believe those things are real do you?" Naruto was about to answer when Kagome out her hand up to stop him from talking

"Never mind I already know your answer, but if you be good I will get it back from Buyo how about that?" Naruto jumped off of Hojo and hugged Kagome his smile had returned as he dragged Kagome back the to the shrine. The girls smiled and laughed at the blonds sudden mood changes, Hojo laughed with them, he knew his best friend was always like that.

The Next day

Kagome turned fifteen, everyone woke up early to surprise her, even Naruto came early to help Kagome's mom to prepare a great birthday breakfast. He and Kagome's mom always got along like a mother and son, she practically raised him when his parents were always working and his brother left to study, she was the reason why Kagome and him became great friends she had met him praying to the shrine, and he was all alone, his parents were working all night, while his brother was too busy working or causing trouble he didn't know but he wasn't around to watch out for him, and she was going to pray for her deceased husband. The instant they met they spent time together everyday with her and her daughter Kagome, and after awhile the two spent time together and they began acting like a family, and she became almost like her mother since then, always worrying about him and taking care of him.

When they finished Kagome came down and was taken aback by the grand looking breakfast waiting for her, when she learned that Naruto made it she dubbed it safe to eat, she knew her ramen addict of a friend was an amazing cook when he wanted to be. They ate while talking amongst themselves, they didn't notice Souta excusing himself to fetch Buyo to feed him. Naruto and Kagome finally finished as they made their way to school, Kagome stopped when she noticed the door to the hidden well was open she knew her brother was the only one in the entire shrine who could have gone inside.

"Souta you know you aren't allowed inside of her." Souta jumped when Kagome and Naruto walked in behind him.

"I know but Buyo is inside."

"Why don't you go down there and get him?"

"It's scary there." Souta whined, but he blushed in embarrassment when he saw Naruto chuckling behind of Kagome.

"You are looking for him aren't you? Stop being such a scaredy cat" scratching noises were heard from down the stairs, Naruto tensed when he sensed something wasn't normal but he continued acting normal as he kept a wary eye on the well.

"Aah somethings down there." Souta yelped as he sat shivering, staring at the darkness down the stairs, while Naruto narrowed his eyes, not liking the situation.

"Uh yeah the cat." Kagome said as she made her way down the stairs Naruto by her side, as Souta watched them in fear, as they walked closer to the well, they noticed the scratching noises came from inside the well. When Kagome was about to approach the well she scream in fright when the large cat jumped at her making it's presence known

"And you tell me not to be scared." Kagome was about to retort when a sudden burst of energy appeared behind her,

"Watch out Kagome!" Naruto acted fast as he held unto her before the burst of energy took the form of many hands pulling them down the well, Souta sat there dumbfounded as he tried to understand what had happened right in front of him.

Naruto and Kagome were being surrounded by a light while the hands that grabbed them turned them around, and they came face to face with a woman, she brought chill downs their backs as they looked at her in fear, she began speaking.

"At last, oh to be alive once more. Already my strength returns." Her body was one of a centipede but her bones began to grow flesh again, as she opened her eyes and looked at Kagome who was trying to squirm out of her hold, Naruto was trying the same, but his strength from his past lives did not came back with him, as he tried to think of what to do.

"You have it don't you? Give it to me." The strange monster spoke again as she stretched her unnaturally long tongue licking Kagome's cheek, Kagome was confused as she was freaked out.

"What are you doing! Let Go!" Kagome yelled as she placed her hand on the demon's face, a bright light consumed her hand as the demon was pushed away by an unexplained force, the demon tried to grab Kagome but her arm was detached as she was pushed away, Naruto stared at Kagome's powers in disbelief, while Kagome was just as shocked.

"Wretched girl I must have the sacred jewel." The demon said as she was disappearing in the distance, Kagome's stomach began to glow as they slowly descending on solid ground the strange light that surrounded them was gone, Naruto saw the glow and was shocked but didn't comment.

"The sacred jewel?" Kagome said aloud, she was panting in shock, but when she calmed down she looked around and saw that they were at the bottom of the well, she thought they were still inside the shed, as Naruto was lost in his thoughts

'She can't have can she, I thought it was finally gone? And that demon I thought that they died out?'

Kagome was beginning to think that she bumped her head and that the whole interaction with the demon was just a dream, until she saw the arm that the centipede left behind and immediately understood that it wasn't, Naruto was trying to understand what in the world was going on but pushed his thoughts aside as he looked to the top of the well, as Kagome thought aloud as she saw the sky when they looked up. She began to call for Souta to get her grandpa to help them get out of the well. when she didn't hear a reply she grumbled at the thought of the boy running off scared as Naruto helped her climb out, with the vines growing on the side.

When they reached the top, she noticed it was the sky that they saw when they reached the top, Naruto looked at the surroundings, he knew where they were, but he didn't voice it out when he saw that Kagome was still looking at the surrounding forests, as the birds chirped in the distance, but she figured out herself that they weren't in Tokyo anymore.

"Grandpa? Mom are you there? Souta? Buyo?" Kagome called out as she tried to look for the shrine, Naruto walked beside her as he felt like someone was nearby.

'It's like I got some of my old powers back, I have my awareness from my life as Naruto Uzumaki, I never felt like this when I was back home, interesting.'

"Kagome lets go this way to look for them." Naruto finally spoke, making Kagome aware of his presence,

"Naruto where are we?"

"I'm not too sure but let's explore so we could have a good idea." Naruto said as they walked, Kagome was still calling out but when they a little distance, Kagome saw the Sacred tree and ran towards it while holding Naruto's hand hoping that they would finally be able to go back to the shrine, but when they arrived they saw a boy with an arrow sticking out of his chest, he looked like he was sleeping when they approached him his long white silvery hair blew softly in the wind.

"Hey there whatcha doing?" Kagome tried to start a conversation

"I don't think he could talk." Naruto concluded as he studied the arrow,

'This is a sacred arrow, only used to seal demons' Naruto was staring at him in curiosity as Kagome rubbed his dog like ears on his head wondering if they were real,

"There, got that out of my system" Kagome sighed as she wondered who the boy was, Naruto sensed another presence a whole group of people, a second later a group of men with arrows yelled at them.

"Get away from there." One of the men yelled as they all had their arrows drawn, ready to fire, until they let go Naruto used his body to cover Kagome, but all the arrows missed.

'They are trying to scare us?' Naruto thought as he glared at the men who attempted to kill them, Kagome clutched to the demon until she looked back at the men who were running towards them, she was extremely confused as they tied her and Naruto up and brought to a small village, people gathered but stayed at a distance not wanting to be near the strangers. Kagome was annoyed as she said that they didn't have to tie them up, but they fell on deaf ears, Naruto could hear the people as they stared at them commenting on their clothes, which was their school uniforms, others started to speak about war, and complained it was right before rice planting season, while a couple women were saying that they could be kitsune in disguise, that hurt Naruto because in one of his past life the people thought he was one when he was a human all along but he dealt with the pain and worked hard to become the hero he had become in the Ninja world.

Many people still began talking, as Kagome was getting irritated unable to believe they traveled back in time, after a few minutes a man yelled at the people.

"Make way for high priestess Kaede." An elderly woman walked towards them, as she used her bow as a cane, Kagome began to whisper to Naruto before she could reach them.

"Is she a friend of yours?"

"No all the priestess's I met are like my age, I only know priests her age." Naruto whispered back, as the woman was standing before them as Kagome wondered now what. The elderly woman began throwing sacred ashes at them while chanting.

"Demon begone!" Kagome was angry as she shout at the priestess to stop, Naruto was used to the treatment from his master and teacher Kagome's grandpa during his training, Kagome's grandpa thought it was best to learn from experience.

"Hey We are not demons OK!"

"Are ye not? Then why were ye found in the forest of Inuyasha?" the elder asked, the man by her side began to whisper in the elder priestess's ear but the two young teenagers heard every word.

"They could be spies from the neighboring village."

"In that case they would be a fool, who would invade such a poor village of ours?" She retorted, Kagome stared at the woman, until the priestess noticed her facial features, Naruto watched as she looked at Kagome, like she was familiar but when she spoke she said.

"look clever girl or be a half-wit." Kagome was furious at the comment but didn't speak, as Naruto was understanding the seriousness of the situation held back his snicker as he waited for his friend to blow up at any minute like a bomb just waiting to explode.

"It's there though I know not why." Kaede said causing both teenagers to be confused at what she was saying,

"Huh" Was Kagome's intelligent reply.

A few hours later her and Naruto sat at the priestess's home, watching her as she made them soup, she discovered that Naruto was a priest in training, when she overheard their conversation about his training and why he was not annoyed about the sacred ashes being splattered all over him. When Kaede was finished she gave Naruto and Kagome a bowl of her stew as they both said their thanks.

"Bear us no ill will children, for though I now see ye mean us no harm, in these troubled times of war no stranger may be welcomed among us without deep distrust." She said with an apologetic face as she tended to the fire before them

"We really aren't in Tokyo are we." She asked the elderly woman, who looked at them confused.

"To Ky O never heard of it before is that where your people are from?" Kaede asked,

"Yeah, we should get going." Kagome said as she continued to finish her meal, Naruto did the same until he discovered the plain obvious result if they went back.

"But we don't even know how to get back Big sis" Naruto whispered in her ear, Kagome didn't bother to reply as she continued to eat, while glaring at Naruto who slouched back and ate his own food, mumbling under his breath he was just saying the truth, and something about how Kagome was like an evil older step sister out to destroy all things fun in life, as he wanted to explore the weird place they were at.

Kaede didn't bother to speak as she continued to watch the teenagers who were eating, she noticed Kagome once again, and how much she resembled her older sister who passed away fifty years before, Naruto noticed her staring and made his resolve to speak to her when Kagome was not any where near them, he didn't want her to know just yet who she was, and who he was and why they were brought to the strange world. As they sat down in peace and quiet, loud noises were heard from the outside, Naruto sensed demonic energy as he bolted outside, Kagome followed close behind him.

They saw the female demon centipede who brought them to the feudal era, as she terrorized the village searching for the Shikon jewel. Naruto tried to think of how to counter, but he knew not all of his spiritual power had returned or his chakra had opened yet, he needed to find a way to fight with what little spiritual power he had left, but the female centipede attacked Kagome while Naruto was thinking, he saw the monster bite at Kagome's side.

Naruto saw the jewel as it fell to the ground, he bolted towards it as he grabbed Kagome's hand and started to run, Kaede started to yell at them to run to the Forest of Inuyasha and go to the bone eaters well, they didn't know where to go, but ran to where strange lights lit the night sky, Kaede didn't know what they were saying when they said they would run to the strange lights. Kaede watched them as they ran, but found it impossible for the young girl to have the jewel as one of the villagers gave her a horse, one that wasn't attacked as she rode off after the endangered children, who were trying to run away from the Lady Centipede. Then Kaede found it strange they could see what the others couldn't as she rode forwards.

While they were running Naruto noticed most of his Spiritual power was returning, as he held the jewel in his hand, they kept on running until they reached the Sacred tree, where the demon boy was trapped. They tried to run some more but the demon was closing in on them, Kagome was scared she stared to yell for help from anybody, as she did Naruto noticed the sealed Demon's heartbeat had started once again. The demon glared at Kagome as he sneered while saying.

"Hello Kikyo, playing with bugs now are we?" Kagome noticed he was speaking, and was confused

"So you're alive?"

"Why are you taking so long to kill her, do her like you did me. You look pretty dumb there Kikyo, the Kikyo I know wouldn't waste her time."

"That does it, Kikyo, Kikyo, whoever she is she's not me cause my name is,"

"She's here." Inuyasha cut her off, Naruto saw the demon appear once again, she first attacked him, but when his hand touched her body his holy powers reacted as her skin was burned, Kagome was scared as she was going to be attacked head on, but the demon was stopped as Naruto touched her. The demon didn't know that he had the jewel in his hand, Kagome was getting in a verbal fight with the sealed demon as Naruto was fending off with the demon with only his hands, as his holy powers came out on their own, he had no control.

Kaede appeared, with the rest of the villagers willing to fight off the demon, she saw how Kagome was verbally fighting with Inuyasha the demon sealed in the tree, and how Naruto was fighting the demon off with holy powers of a priest or priestess's. Naruto was getting frantic as he yelled at Kagome to ran away, but the demon changed targets as she moved towards Kagome, as she tripped Naruto when he looked away.

"Stop it!" Kagome yelled as she put her hand out to stop the demon from coming closer to her, but she shocked when the same light as the first time she saw the centipede came out of her exactly like Naruto, Kaede was shocked as she continued to fire arrows at the demon,

"They both have the sacred power." Kaede said, Naruto was tired out, as his powers were very taxing in his new body,

'Damn, its been hundreds of years since I was reborn, my powers are just as taxing as my very first time using them.' Naruto panted in exhaustion.

Kagome was trying to run away from the demon but was pinned against the tree with Inuyasha, he was trying to coax her into releasing the arrow from his chest, she was slowly being crushed as Naruto ran towards her in amazing speed, but he was too late when Kagome had taken out the arrow in desperation, Kaede was shocked once again as she saw the spell made by her sister was removed. Inuyasha fought the demon while laughing manically, while he was fighting Naruto ran to Kagome's side, her side was still bleeding, he placed his hand to her side and his powers glowed in his hand as he healed her wound.

"You too, why does our hands glow?" Kagome looked at him confused as the pain on her side subsided.

"I am not too sure, but we have to be careful, that thing could still come after us." Naruto felt the demonic powers of the sealed Demon attacking the centipede, and how he killed her in one move. When he killed her he went after Kagome, thinking she had the jewel, Naruto pushed her away as he stood in front of Inuyasha.

"Run Kagome, hurry I will try to fend him off long enough for you to get away." Naruto yelled, as Inuyasha was swinging his long nails, trying to cut Naruto down without much effort, but Naruto's past instincts were in auto pilot. He dodged every attack the demon tried to land on him, Naruto was tired of dodging while Kagome ran off, confused wondering why the demon wasn't the hero, Naruto placed his hands on Inuyasha's hands, as his hand glowed Inuyasha's skin burned, as he pushed Naruto away running After Kagome with plans to kill.

Kaede was calm as she started to chant, a strange relic necklace in her hands, when she was done the beads of the necklace glowed and moved towards Inuyasha placing themselves around his neck, right before he could kill her,

"Child ye must find the sacred word to activate the beads." Naruto was just as frantic as Kagome was, as she was trying to think of what word she should use, then at the same second Inuyasha's ear popped into their minds as they yelled at the same time.

"SIT BOY" With that word, Inuyasha fell to the ground on the bridge he was standing on, He fell into the flowing river, as Naruto and Kaede reached her,

"Child do ye have the sacred jewel?" Kagome searched herself searching for the jewel, when she shook her head the men that came with Kaede started to cry out in fear for failing to protect the jewel, Naruto looked at everyone worried about what he was about to say, pondering about whether or not to tell them the truth about himself, but when he saw Kagome's dreadful face about losing the jewel he made up his mind.

"No but I do." Naruto said as he showed them his palm, the jewel glowing beautifully in his hand, remaining its pure glow as it surrounded the young blond. Kaede looked at the young boy in awe, as she watched the child glow exactly like the Shikon jewel, when he placed the jewel in Kagome's hand he stopped glowing.

"How can ye hold the stone without corruption caused by the evil spirits that surround the jewel child?" Naruto looked at her, expressionless as he continued to speak.

"Because I am the jewel reborn, High priestess." Kagome looked at Naruto like he was insane, but she saw his power, it was just like hers, she didn't know what to think at the moment.

"Impossible, the jewel cannot be held in human form." Kaede looked at him skeptically, but kept her distance as she continued to watch him, waiting for his reaction.

"It was made possible my lady, by your elder sister, the High priestess Kikyo, when she brought the jewel with her to the other world, she released my soul from the jewel as well as almost all of my powers. The jewel here is my remaining self that could not be released, so basically someone can make the wish on the jewel, or by using me both results are the same." Naruto said as he looked away from everyone, Kagome half expected her friend to be joking around, leading everyone on. But the way he was being serious, it was exactly like the day he told her that his parents died in the car crash, and that they were never going to return again. Naruto didn't look at anyone, he was afraid of how they would look at him, but the one thing he did not expect was Kagome hugging him from behind, exactly like how she treated him when she told her about his parents.

"Ye are the jewel reborn then?" Kaede asked as she studied the boy, when the young blond looked up he nodded his head slowly, Kaede sighed heavily as she ordered the men to take them back but to be wary about how to treat Naruto, and not to touch him for too long periods, half afraid they may make a wish unknowingly.

"Child ye must be as heavily guarded like ye past self." Kaede sighed once more as they made their way back to the village, while other men threw the Mistress Centipede carcass into the Bone eaters well. Inuyasha heard the entire story, he didn't care about the results with using the jewel, or the boy only about how he could use them to change himself into a full fledged demon, instead of his half-breed self.

"Why don't ye have a guardian, child?" Kaede asked curiously, her thoughts surrounded on the idea about a human jewel, and the jewel in her village, while trying to protect both and the hide the boys secret.

"I don't need one, where we come from it is quite peaceful, only priest's and priestess's know about the jewel and its wonder's, every one else has forgotten its legend." Naruto thought back towards his teacher, the only priest who would take him on, despite his age, others wanted the boy to wait for couple years before becoming a priest in training.

"But you surely know the dangers traveling alone?" Kaede pressed on, she knew the dangers the boy could face if they found out about the boy, and about how many would fight to get their hands on him.

"Yes I know about it, especially here, but I guess that Kagome is my protector, she was in our past lives, she never did chose a successor through the traditional terms I guess that's why I got reborn alongside her." Naruto thought aloud, as Kagome was too busy looking at the construction to fix the damage that happened merely a few hours before as the sun was high in the sky.

"So she is your guardian? Ye must realize the dangers she must overcome to keep ye power safe from villains?"

"Yeah I know but I never told my guardian, but she is the only one besides myself that can purify the jewel if it is ever tainted with evil, as well as to see where the jewel could be when hidden from our sight, High priestess." Naruto said as he watched his surrogate sister help the villagers,

"And I know many demons may come for me, but that is only if they know about my existence, I can be very well hidden in the open instead of a secluded area, where many would think I am a great treasure to be hidden away at any cost." Naruto reasoned, he learned from his past self, while sealed in the jewel he was always hidden away, never to be seen it caused many to want him because he was so well guarded that they wanted to touch what no one could have, it was only later that they found out about his legend, and power.

"That is understandable, ye has been locked away many a year." Naruto nodded as he looked around the village, he could feel like something was about to happen, it scared him so much as chills went down his back, like when a predator made its way towards its prey waiting for the opportunity to attack.

Naruto turned to the source of his dreadful feeling, he saw only a tree but what caught his attention, was a red fabric shown under a branch full of leaves. Naruto knew instantly that he had to be wary about Inuyasha, and that he had to stay with Kagome, mainly because she was the only one she trusted to fully protect him.

Kagome left to the spring to bath in the small lake, while Naruto waited for her at the shore, she knew the boy wouldn't dare to peak at her, he was too scared of the dog demon, and that he had never had urges like that before, he was too pure to do anything. The only reason he got the birds and the bee's talk was because of one of his past lives, where one of his teachers deemed it necessary to take him aside and to tell him about it outside of a hot spring, only to be beaten up afterwords by a horde of females who were listening to the conversation inside. The talk didn't do anything to rise his urges to look at a female, he never even looked at another guy, except Souta because he would get bullied into bathing with the small boy by Kagome.

Naruto watched as the fire before him flicker and swoon as it began to dry Kagome's clothes, he never got rid of the feeling that Inuyasha gave him whenever he was near. Naruto thought he would be safe when he came with Kagome to her bath, but the damn Demon followed them still, he was staring at Kagome now at the jewel hanging around her neck as she swam in the lake naked. Naruto began to shiver, he felt the same chill, while he spoke under his breath.

"Sit boy." Naruto barely said over a whisper, but the beads heard one of it's master's say the sacred word, that made Inuyasha docile enough to let him remain in the village. Kaede merely looked at the fallen demon in annoyance as he got up again and started to yell at the frightened boy, who curled up in a fetal position, afraid if he got up he would see Kagome ready to kill him for seeing her naked behind Inuyasha. Inuyasha didn't let up as Kagome screamed, and yell for him to sit plenty of times to keep him down so that she could dress herself in priestess's clothes while her's were still being washed. Naruto wore the same type of clothes, but when Inuyasha saw Kagome, he didn't see the strange girl he met a few days before he only saw the woman he once loved and the one who left him for dead at the trunk of a tree.

Inuyasha stared at her with a pained expression, the same as Kaede when she first saw Kagome, but she knew that the girl wasn't her sister but a reincarnated version of her. She told Inuyasha the day before that she was the younger sister of Kikyo, the little girl he knew was now an aged old priestess, with fifty years that passed since the fateful day they both supposedly died.

Naruto remembered that day very well, he was the cause of their deaths that was what he thought whenever he looked back, he remembered their love for the other, he was there one fateful day when Kikyo asked Inuyasha to become human to spend his life with her, but then the day came, he felt a strange evil presence that overcame everything that day, and that was the day the Inuyasha was sealed away, and his protector, his best friends past self was killed, and the day he was released from the jewel.

Kagome was still angry at Inuyasha that he appeared while she was bathing, but right before she stormed off she grabbed Naruto's hand as well as her uniform and continued to storm of trying to find something to vent her anger. Naruto was feeling like he could breathe once again the further they got away from the half demon, but when he looked at his surroundings he noticed that they were heading towards the well, Kagome already changed into their school uniform as they made their way back to their only clue home.

They walked in silence, Naruto noticed that the birds weren't singing, or anything at all was making a noise, he tried to remember from his life as Naruto Uzumaki, bells were going off in his head telling him it was a bad sign. The blonds heart started to pound against his chest as his fear level went off the charts, he tried to look around to see if there was any danger, but he didn't see the group of bandits coming in front of them grabbing Kagome, or reaching out to grab him.

The strange men carried them off holding their arms and legs, to risk the chance that they could fight their way off of them, they looked lustfully at the two young teenagers, as some kept a distance knowing the dangers of having their fun before their boss. They were carried a small distance away, until they reached a small hut, when they walked inside a large smelly man made his way towards Naruto, he caressed the blond boys face, while his hands were being bound, while Kagome was fighting the men off. The older man made his hand travel down the young blonds body, while Naruto stared at him in fear, the same fear he felt for the demon Inuyasha, it was the feeling that he was near a powerful demon.

The larger man removed his hand, and turned to Kagome seeing the necklace of the Shikon No Tama Jewel, he reached for it snatching it off of her neck. He began to kill of his comrades, as he moved awkwardly swinging his sword. While they looked in fear in the massacre, Naruto thought back to Sasuke the only one who wormed his way into Naruto's heart and stayed, his true best friend of his heart, the only one would could heal his pain, and he was the same to him, brothers of circumstance.

Inuyasha left after the two, he was annoyed that they left without saying a word to any villagers, he also caught the scent of another demon nearby. He ran when the scent of blood reached his nose, he just kept on running not caring where he went he followed the scent of blood until he saw a small hut some men ran out. When he ran inside he saw a patch of blond, and beside him was a large man about to tower over him, the young blond child staring at his predator in fear. Inuyasha moved fairly quickly as he struck down the man, while Kagome went to untie her younger surrogate brother and try to calm him down, as he was about to hyperventilate.

When Inuyasha struck down the man, in his shadow a large being was rising, it was a bird like demon, one that Naruto had no experience with in his past life, as it flew away. Kagome ran after the demon in the heat of the moment with Inuyasha right behind her, while Naruto walked back finally calmed down. His mind on the fear he had, he was once the most powerful, unafraid powerful priestess and a legendary Shin-obi before that, and now his fear was now getting the better of him, basically freezing him in the face of danger like when he did when he first saw danger when he a young genin after his first fight against some rogue nin in a life or death situation.

"Naruto you have got to be the number one knuckle head ninja I have ever met." Kakashi said, after he saw Naruto pull an impossible stunt which should have killed him, but he came out on top. Naruto simply smiled as he looked at his Sensei Kakashi looking at him with his lone eye, Sakura by his side telling him he was lucky he never died, and beside her Sasuke was saying he was an idiot, while hiding his concern.

Naruto returned back to reality, he didn't like going into memory lane, it brought back the thought that he could never see his friends again, all of his bonds lost in the hidden age of their past rule, when Ninja's ruled the world, but now it was more peaceful, and vulnerable than before. He didn't want to think about it anymore as he ran after Kagome and Inuyasha.

In the distance Naruto finally reached Kagome and Inuyasha, Kagome was about to shoot an arrow at the flying bird demon, while having its moving leg attached to the arrow. She shot the arrow, the leg was like a homing beacon just going back to the source, then he saw it happen in slow motion when the arrow hit it's mark, smashing the jewel into thousands of pieces, spreading itself across the world.

He saw Kagome face turn into an apologetic face, while he and Inuyasha turned into a devastated expression, no one said a word, even with some of the local villagers nearby watching in awe as bright lights shot in ever direction. Naruto looked at Kagome in sheer horror, until he finally spoke.

"Kagome, is that how you feel about me!" Naruto shouted, while everyone stared at him, sweat dropping.

Well this is the first chap, I won't have Naruto weak forever, he just needs to find what he lost, and he won't be traveling with Kagome forever, I am either choosing him to get separated from the group, or either he gets kidnapped and rescued and he stays with his rescuers. And he won't be traveling with OC's, they will be actual characters, I will not say who though.

Better review because by the next chapter Naruto is going to be leaving them
