Chapter One:

My Sister, and The Mysterious World

With half an hour drive, you have finally reached the Higurashi's Shrine. You are wondering what they will think of you. You walk up the steps, carrying your suitcases and you see the old man sweeping the leaves, and you instantly concluded that he is Grandpa. You walk up to him, put down your suitcases and said, "Hi, you need any help?"

Grandpa looked at you and said, "You are Chiaki, I haven't see you since you are one day old." He then walked around you in the circle and looked at you. You felt kind of weird for an old guy to check you out, but you shook the nasty thoughts out of your head and just though of him observing you as his other grandchild. "You have grown, how old are you now, girl?"

"14…"

"Aye." He whispered, and turned toward the house and yelled, "she's here!"

Then a few seconds later, you see a women with short black hair running out the house with her apron tied around her waist. When she saw you, she stopped run, and covered her hands over her mouth and sobbed quietly.

You walked to her, and pulled her into your arms and hugged her. She was shocked at first with your action, but she hugged you back. "It is okay, mother." She pulled away a little from the embrace and smiled. "You truly have grown, Chiaki." She then wiped away her tears and helped you with your suitcases. "Come let's go in. Kagome and Souta will be home soon."

You walked into the house, and she led you to your bedroom. "Your bedroom is right across from Kagome's, if you need anything ask Kagome. I know you might not get use to your small room right now…"

"It is okay, mother." You said cutting off her sentence. "I'll get use to it. And I think you have done a little too much for me." You said looking at your room. "Thanks, mother."

She smiled a little, and closed the door behind you, before she left. You turned to look at your room. And you notice, the ceilings is painted sky blue, and the walls are painted baby blue. Across and on the opposite from you was a glass slide door, which it has a balcony. The right side of the glass slide door, you see an empty bookshelf, beside it was a computer, on a computer desk. Parallel to the computer and in front of the doorway, you see a huge closet with a big mirror on the side of it. Across the closet, there's a window, below the window, there is a powder blue colored board, as if it could be used as another shelf. You bed is under that long shelf. And beside where you stand right now, there's a small drawer, with a blue lamp, on top of it.

Just as you are admiring the beauty and the hard work the Higurashi had done. You heard at light knock on your door. "Come in." You cried.

"Hey" You turned and you see a girl with long black hair, wearing green school uniform looking at you. "You must be Chiaki, I am Kagome." She said, extending her hand for you to shake. You took her hand and said, "nice to meet you, are you sure we are sisters?"

Kagome was confused by your question. You then explained, "We don't really look alike." With that, she laughed.

"I think we are, oh, and Souta is your brother too!" Kagome said happily, as she introduced my little brother to me, as Souta blushed madly beside Kagome, during the introductions.

You have met them all, and you think it is time to go to bed, hating the fact that you still haven't unpack your suitcases. Just as you tumbled on to your bed, you heard, a noise coming from Kagome's room. You stood up and to her room, and you see…

A dog? Or is he human? You thought to yourself, as you see him or it staring back at you with interest. Let us say it is a he. You thought to yourself. He seems tall, taller than you at least. And he is wearing a red kimono, with silver hair. What really intrigued you were his dog-ears. You wanted to go over to him and scratch his ears. And he is pretty cute.

Just as you were going to say something, Kagome walked into her room and gasp. "What are you doing here?" You thought she was asking you, so you said, " I heard a noise in your room, and so I came in uninvited, sorry!"

You looked at her and starting to walk out of the door, when you heard him speak, "who are you?"

You look over to Kagome me and said, "me? I think you should ask Kagome." I walk out of her room, and gave a look to Kagome a look saying that she have a whole bunch of things she have to explain later as you walk out the door.

An hour later, after hearing a thud, and a shout "I'll get you, Kagome." When you heard 3 knocks on your door. You quickly got up to open the door, and you see Kagome standing there, with a foolish smile. You rose up one of your eyebrows and let her in.

"You don't really expect me to tell you everything right?" She asked.

"No," you simply replied, "you really don't have to, I was joking with you back there."

"And I was planning to tell you…"

So from what you have learned so far is that, Kagome is a shard detector in the Federal Era, after she broke the Shikon no Tame. And she is traveling with a whole bunch of people to get the jewel shards. And a guy Nuraku has most of the jewel shards. And that guy back there was Inu Yasha. And the only way to go to that time is to go in the Bone-Eater well. (You want to know more, watch the anime Inu Yasha!)

"So can I go there?" You asked out of nowhere. Kagome looked at you, with a big sweat drop on her forehead. "Um… Chiaki, only Inu Yasha and I have been able to go there, no one else can get through."

"You don't die from trying right?" You asked her. "No…" She whispered back.

"So, can we try now, then come back and go tomorrow after we pack." You said happily. "Only, if I can go through."

Kagome led you to the well, and she encouraged you to jump in. You jumped and the next thing you knew, blue lights surrounded you, and you feel relaxed and happy. And then you are back to the bottom of the well. And few second later, Kagome appeared too. Looking at you surprisingly.

Both of you climbed out, and you gasp. You have never seen anything so beautiful. The sky is midnight blue, with bright yellow star twinkling at you, as if it is laughing at you. The surrounding is green and clam, and you can see the way that the wind is blowing on the grass.

"Never seen anything more beautiful in your life right?" Kagome asked as she herself was admiring Mother Nature's beauty.

"No, I haven't…" You whispered as if you are scared to wake the peacefulness of the view you are staring at right now.

"Well, when I go here, it was a totally different story, never had the time to admire its beauty and peace…" She chuckled. "Well, ready to go back yet?"

"Five more minutes…"
