Hello ! This be iMMATURE! i don't know why, but i have the quote from theItallian Job "I trust everybody, it just the devil inside of them i don't trust" in my head. I didn't even watch the whole movie. You are probably thinking that i'm weird ... -.- You are probably going to skip this gibberish anyway. On with the story ... on with the story. I'm probably going to use throw quotes at you for the hell of it.

Chapter One:

Disappearance

The gang was passing by a village for some food. An old lady called out to them, "COME … and find what you desire the most! You with the weird clothing, the monk, yes, all five of you come." Kagome went towards the old women. The old woman told Miroku to sit down. She put a stack of cards in front of Miroku. "Place you hand on top of the cards, monk." Miroku laughed nervously, "I don't really believe …" "PLACE YOU HAND ON TOP OF THE CARDS!" The woman belted. She was an old woman. Long white hair down flowed to her waist, her fingers were long and bony, and yet her voice was not so horrifying.

Miroku immediately placed his hands on the cards. The woman shuffled the cards and placed two cards faced down. "Are you ready, monk?" Miroku nodded. She lifted the first card …. "Ahh …" "What is it?" Miroku asked curiously. "You are looking for something…someone." Sango looked at the old woman impressed. "This person caused you a lot of pain." The woman touched the second card. She slowly flipped the card and looked at Miroku. "Your chance for revenge will come soon."

She looked at Inuyasha and ushered him to sit down too. "Why do I have to do this?" he whined. Inuyasha reluctantly touched the cards. The woman shuffled the cards again and placed two cards down. She flipped the first card over; "You are trapped between two maidens …" Kagome froze. She looked at Inuyasha and ran out of the tent. She ran and came to a bridge. She breathed. She wandered the town and tried to stay away from her friends. She went back to the bright at dark.

"Ma'am?" Kagome turned and saw the old woman. "Hello" Kagome greeted.

"Is something bothering you? Your friends are looking for you, but decided to keep their distance."

"Oh …"

"Is there something you desire? A wish perhaps?"

Kagome felt so easy when the old woman talked to her. "Yes, I wished Inuyasha would make up his mind on who is dear to him."

"I see …" The woman nodded and left.

Kagome looked up and saw a glimmer of purple. Her eyes widened. She rushed off and screamed Inuyasha's name. The hanyou was by her side in no time. "There is a Shikon jewel!"

They rushed after the glimmer. Inuyasha dropped Kagome off near a cliff and rushed off the beast.

Kagome raised her bow and aimed for the flying beast. Inuyasha ran after the bird demon. The purifying arrow hit the bird on the wing. The demon screamed and dived towards Kagome. Inuyasha raised his sword and screamed, "Kazu no kizu!" Inuyasha ran towards the falling Shikon shard. The shard fell towards Kagome. She reached for the shard. Kagome jumped to catch the shard. On the corner of Kagome's eye she saw the familiar purple light turn to sparkling dust that flew towards the sky.

Kagome opened her hand and nothing was on it. Inuyasha hopped next to Kagome, "Where's the shard?" Kagome took out the little bottle that held the rest of the shards. Small purple dust flew upwards. Miroku and Sango ran towards the two. "What is the matter, Inuyasha?" Miroku asked. "Kagome is a lousy catcher." "Sit boy." Inuyasha plunged toward the ground to eat some dirt. "The shards disappeared, even the ones in the bottle. They … they turned to purple dust."

Miroku examined the bottle. "Are you sure it is not one of Naraku's tricks?" Kagome shook her head. "I don't sense them." Sango got on Kirara, "I'll check the village." Inuyasha got off the floor and spat out the dirt. Kagome climbed onto Inuyasha. "What are you doing?" Inuyasha whined. "We are going to Sango's village." Miroku and Shippo climbed on Kirara.

They reached the empty village and went toward Midoriko's cave. Sango looked at the cave and stepped in. The gang followed Sango. They reached to the end of cave and Midoriko's corpse was still there. There was something different about her though. Inuyasha pulled out his tetsaiga. Miroku held his staff tightly. "I sense demonic aura. Miko Midoriko is not protecting this cave anymore."

Inuyasha turned around and saw Kagura standing behind them with her fan in her hand. "What you want, Kagura?" "I have no reason to fight you, you have no Shikon jewels." Inuyasha smirked, "So, Naraku lost his jewels? He must be as weak as ever." Kagura nodded, she put her fans away. "Doesn't the miko seem a little dead?"

"Well Kagura, she's been dead." Inuyasha mocked. "You are right Kagura," Miroku began. The gang gave Miroku a questioning look. "What are you talking about Miroku?" Shippo asked. "Look at the miko Midoriko, her soul is no longer in her body or in this cave." The gang nodded in agreement.

"Naraku is hiding again. This is the perfect chance to kill him, Inuyasha."

"Why should I trust you?"

"Because I want him dead." Kagura turned and left.

"Let's see what Kaede says." They rushed back to the village, then entered Kaede's hut. They quickly summarized the events that had occurred. Kaede picked up the spoon and mixed the liquid in the cauldron. "What do you think old hag?" She poured some of the tea into her bowl and quietly drank it. "Kagome, how do you feel?"

Kagome looked at her oddly, "Fine". Kaede took another sip from the bowl.

"Stop drinking your tea and tell us." Inuyasha said impatiently.

"Well … I believe Midoriko's soul has moved on. Would you like some tea?"

"Thank you", Miroku said as he accepted the tea. "What do you mean moved on? She has been sealed in there for centuries, why now?"

Kaede poured more tea into her cup and quietly drank from it. She got up and stood near the doorway. "People are going to be changed with the disappearance of the Shikon jewel, especially the ones who relied on it for so long."

Kagome eyes widened, "KOUGA!"

Kagome rushed out of the cabin. Inuyasha ran after her. He jumped in front of her, "Where are you going?"

"We have to find Kouga."

"Why? Let that no good wolf die."

"Fine, I will find him myself." Kagome ran past Inuyasha. He shook his head and ran after the girl. Sango and Miroku ran closely behind them on Kirara. Inuyasha ran next to Kagome. "Get on …" Kagome smiled and hopped on him.

"How did you expect to find him anyway?"

"… I …."

"His scent is this way …" He turned around.

"Inuyasha …"

"Hm?"

"Why did you come after me? The Shikon jewel disappeared … I can't help you anymore …"

"I couldn't let you out alone here. You can get killed, how am I suppose to tell that to your family? Besides, the Shikon jewel will come back and I need you then."

Kagome smiled, "Thank you, Inuyasha."

Inuyasha blushed, "What are you thanking me for?"

Inuyasha stopped. Everyone heard the cries of demons. "That meggy wolf is here."

Inuyasha sniffed the air. "Yeah … I can smell him." Kagome got off his back and scanned the area. Miroku got off Kirara. He had a deep red hand mark across his face.

Inuyasha went toward a pile of rubble. He lifted the rocks and saw Kouga along with Ginta and Hakkaku. Kagome rushed towards the injured wolves. They brought them back to a safe area after Inuyasha killed a few demons.

Kouga opened his eyes and saw Kagome. "Kagome … leave me … save yourself."

"Don't worry, you're safe. You've been out for quite a while."

"Kagome … you saved me?"

"No, Inuyasha saved you."

"I didn't do it for you, I did it for Kagome." Inuyasha said coldly.

"What made you think I wanted your help, half-breed?"

"You want to start something?" Inuyasha said while showing off his sharp claws.

"Sit boy", Kagome said annoyed. "Kouga, you should relax."

"As you wish," Kouga said laying back down.

Kagome looked up at the sky.

"Inuyasha …"

"What?"

"Remember last time when we thought it was over?"

"…"

"Inuyasha?"

"Yeah I remember."

"Maybe this is one of Naraku's tricks…"

"This is different."

"I'm going back …"

"Back? Already?"

"You don't need me to find Shikon jewels … and I need to catch up on my homework."

Kagome got up and went towards Sango. "Can I burrow Kirara?"

"You are going back already?"

"Yeah, I will be back soon!"

"Take care of Kouga for me." Kagome hopped onto Kirara and rode off. She looked over the forests. It was quiet and peaceful. She saw Kaede's hut and saw Kaede at the field.

Kirara dropped her off at the well. "Thank you Kirara!"

She jumped in the well. The trip was longer than usual. The ground felt different. It felt moist like she was on something. She took a step looking for the ladder. There were crackling sounds every step she took like she was stepping on twigs. She felt the walls and there was no ladder. She looked up and could not see anything.

She felt her back and she still had her bow and arrows. She raised her bow and arrow upwards. She saw some light from the outside through the whole she made through the roof. It was clearly morning then. The light shined on the well. She saw that she was standing on vines and other things. She climbed up through the vines. She tried opening the door, but it was locked. She banged on the door and it flung opened.

She looked around confused. She looked at her house, it looked about right. The small shrine looked worn and rigged as ever. It looked as if it might fall any second even without her little adjustment. She opened the door of her home and walked in after she dropped her weopon near the door.

The line of shoes was strange. There was no shoe size that would fit her brother. She erased that from her mind and searched around the house for her relatives. The furniture had changed quite a bit. She just thought her mother did some redecorating while she was away. She entered the kitchen and decided to make some food. She opened a cabinet and heard a sweet voice, "What are you doing?" The statement was rude, but the voice waspleasant and Kagome turned around and saw a girl around her age. The girl had dark raven hair that almost looked like purple when the sun hit on it.

"You are a little too young to be a burglar … and I think that you know my ankii is home. Besides you are wearing a school uniform. Today is Saturday though, so I wouldn't understand why you would be wearing a school uniform. Did you run away from home?"

Kagome looked at the girl oddly, "This must be a misunderstanding I live here."

"I'm sorry, but I think I know where I lived my whole life."

"Mikoto, who are you talking to?" A male voice called from upstairs.

"My friend came over!" She yelled back.

"Who?"

"What's your name?" The girl named Mikoto whispered.

"Kagome …"

"Kagome! She is in the …" "What sport do you play?" She whispered.

"Uhh …. Volleyball."

"Volleyball team! She is teaching me how to play volleyball."

"Alright … don't come home too late."

"Okay!"

She went over to the cabinet and pulled out some ramen and boiled it in hot water. She gave it to Kagome. "May I ask what you are really doing here now? I saved you from the wrath of my nee-san; I should at least get the truth."

Kagome dug the chopsticks in the bowl. "I'm serious I live here … use to anyway."

"My parents brought this place over 20 years ago."

20 years ago …20 years ago …20 years ago…These words rang in Kagome's head.

That's the end of chapter one. I just needed a break from my other story … I just didn't feel like finishing it … I hope you like this new story x.x
