The Mirror World

Chapter 1

"I know he's in here some where. Come out here, damnit! I know you're here Naraku." InuYasha said scowling as he repeatedly sniffed the ground of the huge castle. Kagome Higurashi, Sango, Shippoe, and Miroku stood behind him, weapons drawn, searching for the enemy. Kagome was a modern day school girl who went through the Bone Eaters well in her family's shrine and traveled back in time to the Futile Era, her friends' time. The Shikon Jewel or the Jewel of Four Souls was once nestled inside her own body but recently broke out when she reached this era. Here, she met the Half-Demon InuYasha. Sango is a demon slayer who was tricked by the villain Naraku into thinking that InuYasha had destroyed her village and killed her village friends and her own father. It turned out that Sango's own brother, Kohaku, had killed the villagers for he was in Naraku's grasp thanks to a sacred jewel shard embedded in his back. Shippoe is a small fox demon whose father was killed by demons because he had a sacred jewel shard. And, Miroku is a flirtatious monk with a lust towards any pretty woman who crosses his path. Miroku's grandfather was cursed by Naraku with a wind tunnel in his left hand which works as a black hole, sucking up everything in its path. It eventually got passed down to Miroku's father and then to Miroku himself.

"InuYasha," Kagome said to InuYasha who was standing opposite her. "I don't think Naraku is here. He probably escaped already." Kagome started to put her bow and arrow behind her back in retreat when suddenly InuYasha's ear twitched.

"Don't." InuYasha warned.

"What." Kagome responded to his sudden input.

"He's here." A sudden boom filled the air with deafening noise and dust flew out of every corner of the room as a giant spider body with a man's upper chest and head appeared. Naraku stood smirking at his entrance that increased his opponent's fear and then started to charge towards InuYasha.

InuYasha jumped, avoiding his attack. Naraku continued to attack InuYasha when suddenly the door burst open and two figures emerged. Two women entered the room. A dark haired woman entered wearing a red and blue kimono with a fan. "Hello there. Dance of the Dragon!" The demon reincarnation of Naraku, Kagura, charged towards Sango and Miroku. Sango threw her Hirikotsu towards Kagura and Miroku charged, ready to tear off his prayer beads and release his wind tunnel.

The other intruder stepped out of the shadows, revealing the other reincarnation of Naraku, Kanna, who held a mirror. Kagome backed up as Kanna walked towards her. Kagome bumped into something. She turned around to look. It was a giant mirror. She turned back towards Kanna, sweat creasing her brow. She clumsily reached behind her back for an arrow and pulled back her bow ready to strike the white haired, white kimono dressed, little girl when Kanna lifted up her mirror ready to do her attack of sucking out Kagome's soul.

InuYasha saw that Kagome was in danger and ran towards her to rescue the girl he had slowly come to love. He jumped in front of her and Kanna put her mirror down, her target freed.

"What are you doing? Why are you trying to be the freaking hero InuYasha?" Kagome yelled.

InuYasha stumbled backward in surprise. Usually Kagome was grateful towards his sudden rescue, while this time she was pissed. Kagome shot her arrow at Kanna, and then continued her argument with InuYasha.

While she wasn't looking, Kanna raised her mirror, and captured Kagome's arrow in her mirror. The mirror glowed silver and suddenly released the arrow back towards its original shooter. Kagome grabbed another arrow and turned, ready to attack again as InuYasha ran back to Naraku. The arrow flashed through the air before she realized it. "Eh!" Everything got silent. The arrow was mid chest on Kagome's body, piercing her skin to her heart. Kagome's eyes got wide and blank and her skin got as white as paper.

InuYasha turned, "Kagome…….!" He screamed, running towards her. Kagome was falling back at a rapid pace as the arrow continued to go through her soft, tender skin. She fell back and dissolved into the giant mirror. InuYasha arrived a second too late and watched as the girl he loved disappeared into the vast emptiness of the mirror.
