CHAPTER 1

"How many days worth of clothes should I pack?" I shouted down the hall to my mother. "Enough for two months." She said. I closed my bedroom door and turned to my closet. What to pack? I wondered. I finally decided to pack some jeans, some of tanktops, some t-shirts, my pajama shirts and pants, some sundresses, and some skirts. Oh, I forgot to introduce myself how rude of me. My name is Rhiannon, I am 17 years old and I was born and live in the United States. My mother's name is Emily Carp. Yes, She is the famous writer. You must be wondering why I am packing my clothes. You see, My mother is going to Japan in order to write her next book and she is taking us with her. By us, I mean my older sister Rose, my younger sister Rachel, My father Steve, and me. But we aren't staying in Japan for long. My friend that I met at summer camp two years ago, Kagome Higurashi will take us to the destination that we truly desire. You see, my friend Kagome can travel from modern day Japan to Feudal Japan and she is going to take us their so my mother can write her book about it. The cool think about Kagome is that she is the re carnation of a high preistess named, Kikyo. Two years ago, Kagome was pulled through a well that is in her family shrine to the feudal era by a demon because she had a special jewel called the Shikon jewel or jewel of four souls in her body some how. Ever since then, she was able to travel back and forth from the feudal era and present day. I am excited to see Kagome again because the last time I visited her in Japan, I met InuYasha. He is a dog demon from the feudal era. Well, actually he is a half-demon since his mother was human. She died when he was a little boy. He is very stubborn at times and even though he doesn't admit it I think that he has a major crush on Kagome. My family is going to live in a village where Kikyo's sister named, Kaede lives. It is the same village where Kagome met InuYasha and it is the same village where he lives when he is not off killing demons. I need to find my suitcase now and get packing. Ah, here is my suitcase.

I put my suitcase on my bed and I debate on whether or not I should shove my clothes into to my suitcase or if I should fold them. I decided that I should fold them and make some room for my shoes. I picked up my shirts and started to fold them as my dad started shouting down the hall, "Pack your bathing suits too, girls!" Gah, that information would have been helpful about five minutes ago. I go to my closet and I get my red bikini that was hanging up,take it off the hanger and I put it on my bed to be packed. Just then I hear my iphone go off. I look at it and I have a text from Kagome it reads: Hey Rhi, don't forget to bring sleeping bags and pillows because there are no beds in the feudal era. I can't wait until you get here!- Kagome. I sent her a text back saying: Got it. Can't wait to see you too!-Rhi. I placed my phone on my bed and I opened my bedroom door. "Kagome just sent me a text and she said to bring sleeping bags and pillows." I shouted to the rest of my family. "I got the sleeping bags, bring the pillows that are on your beds." My mother shouted from her room. I grabbed my pillow and I placed it on the pile to be packed.

Fifteen minutes later, I was all packed and I lifted my suitcase off my bed and placed it on the floor near the door. I walked over to my laptop and saved the online college application that I was filling out and closed the window and shut my laptop off. I heard a knock on my door so I walked over and I opened it. It was my older sister, Rose. She is 19 years old and she is already in college. She is studying acting and singing with dreams of one day preforming on broadway. If you saw us together, you probably wouldn't believe that we were sisters. You see, Rose has strawberry blonde hair, which she inherited from my father, and I have brown hair, which I inherited from my mother. She has natural curls, which she inherited from my father, and if I want curls in my hair I would have to use my curling iron for fifteen minutes. "What's up, Rose?" I asked. She walked into my room. "Are you all packed?" She asked. I nodded. "My suitcase is right there." I said. Rose sat on my bed. "I have no clue how I can survive two months without electricity." she said. I sat next to her. "Well, just think about how fresh the air will be since there is no cars and buses." I said. She sighed. "True. So this InuYasha what does he look like?" She asked. I picked up my my iphone and tapped on the "my photos" app. I flipped through the pictures until I came across the picture that Kagome, InuYasha, and I took last summer and showed it to Rose. "Wow, he does look like a dog." She said. I took my iphone back from her. "Don't let InuYasha hear you say that. It kind of annoys him since his older brother calls him a mutt." I said. Rose looked at me kind of confused. "Why would his own brother call in a mutt?" She asked as I placed my iphone on my nightstand. "Well, InuYasha is a half-demon and his older brother, Sesshomaru, is a full demon.

Their father, Inu no Taisho, was a full dog demon and Sesshomaru's mother, Inukimi, is a full dog demon as well. One day, Inu no Taisho fell in love with a beautiful mortal woman named Izayoi and left Inukimi for her. He and Izayoi had InuYasha together and he died right after InuYasha was born because he was badly injured after a battle with another demon and when he returned to Izayoi, he fought to defened her and their new born son. I believe Sesshomaru hates InuYasha for that reason and because InuYasha got the inheritance that Sesshomaru wanted." I replied. Rose gently elbowed be. "And what is that inheritance? Is it because InuYasha's father left him more money than he left Sesshomaru?" She joked. I looked at Rose with one of my eyebrows raised. "Please. The inheritance was a sword called the Tetseiga which was forged from one of Inu no Taisho's fangs. The Tetseiga can kill one hundred demons in one stroke." I said. Rose smiled. "I can see why he would want that sword." She said. I sighed. "Yeah, but the thing is that Tetseiga is a human sword. Inu no Taisho had it forged to protect Izayoi. Sesshomaru has another sword that was forged from a fang of Inu no Taisho's called the Tenseiga, which can bring a person who is dead back to life. Sesshomaru really wanted the Tetseiga and was angered when he found out that he can't wield it but InuYasha can since he is a half-demon." I said . Rose got up off my bed and walked to the door "Well I can't wait to meet InuYasha I hope that we don't have a run in with Sesshomaru." I picked up my suitcase and I carried it to the front door. I can't wait to leave for our trip!
