Disclaimer: Hey all! Here is another story that I want to write. I hope you like it. As always, I do not own Inuyasha nor do I own Disney's The Little Mermaid.

Staring out across the ocean with crystal blue eyes at the shore, a beautiful mermaid sighed to herself. Her waist length raven hair blew in the wind as she watched the waves crash onto the beach. She has always been fascinated with humans, hanyous, and especially youkais. She tucked some of her hair behind one of her slightly pointed ears. She ran her fingers over her ear and a concern that had plagued her mind for awhile came to her. What group did her species fit into? She knew she wasn't human, but was she a hanyou or a youkai? A wave splashed up against her long, beautiful navy blue tail and the rock she was perched on. She sighed again and then took a hold of the small lavender sphere that hung around her neck. She had been given it to protect many years ago, but she never understood why it needed protection. She then turned it over to the spot where a small shard was missing. The shard disappeared years before she was born and no one has seen it since.

As she looked to the shore, a black haired girl's head popped up and swam up to the raven haired mermaid. "Hey Kagome, I knew I find you up here." Kagome turned her head to the one who spoke to her and her crystal blue eyes fell upon her best friend, Sango. "Hey Sango." Sango rested her head onto the rock and said, "You know Kagome, your father won't be happy that you are up here." Kagome just shrugged and looked back toward the shore. "But are we going ship hunting today?" Kagome turned to her and smiled. "You know I can't say no to that." She slid off the rock into the sea and both Kagome and Sango dove under the surface.

The two swam through the sea toward the newest ship wreck with their bags over their shoulders. They soon came upon a large ship and they began to search the hull of the ship for an entrance. From what they heard, the sinking of the ship was unknown. Finally, Kagome found an entrance on the port side of the ship. She and Sango swam inside and began to explore. Sango flipped her purple tail over to a large chest and opened it. Inside, there were many clothing of fine material. Sango pulled out a light pink dress and held it up. She twirled around and then said, "Land walkers have such strange clothing. I mean, look at this. There are so many layers." Kagome giggled and then continued to look around. As she looked, she said, "I have plenty of those in my collection. I was looking for anything new." She then saw something she had only seen a few land walkers use before. It was silver and was kind of long with a row of thin looking teeth. "Hey, here is something that I don't own." Sango turned to Kagome and said, "What is it?" Kagome shrugged and said, "I don't know, but I see the female land walkers using it on their hair like this." Kagome ran the object through her hair and Sango nodded her head. Kagome place her new object into her bag and then continued to search the ship.

An hour went by and both Kagome and Sango had found a couple of treasures. They then decided that it was time to head back towards home before someone, like Kagome's father, found them missing. They swam through the town and headed up to the palace, which was made of coral of all colors. Kagome looked around and then quietly motioned to Sango that the coast was clear. The two began to head down the hall, but then heard someone behind them say, "Kagome, where have you been?" Kagome froze, but then turned to face her father. Both she and Sango bowed to King Higurashi and then Kagome said, "Hello father. Sango and I were out in the market." King Higurashi crossed his arms and said, "From what I have been told, you have been going to the surface." Kagome gasped and her father sighed. "Kagome, how many times do I have to remind you? You could have been seen by a human and captured or worse, you could have been spotted and killed by one of those blood thirsty youkais." "Father, I was fine; no one was up there." Her father began to raise his voice and said, "But there could have been. I do not want to see you captured or killed by one of those beasts." "I am eighteen years old; I am not a little girl anymore." "I don't care if you are thirty! I never want to hear that you have gone to the surface again!" Kagome didn't say anything more and swam off, out of the palace. Sango was right behind her for she knew where Kagome was heading.

King Higurashi watched Kagome leave and then sighed heavily. He then called out, "Kenji, come here." From around a pillar came a small sea horse and he swam up to him. Kenji bowed and said, "You called, Your Majesty?" King Higurashi nodded his head and said, "I want you to follow my daughter and make sure she stays out of trouble." Kenji bowed again and then swam off in the direction Kagome and Sango had headed.

Sango and her friend Kirara, who was a dolphin, swam up to a boulder and pulled it away, revealing a cave entrance. They swam in and found Kagome sitting on a ledge, running her new toothed object through her hair. "Kagome, are you okay?" Kagome sighed and put her new object down. "I don't know why my father doesn't understand. How can so many beautiful things be created by something that is evil?" She looked around the cavern at all of the items and objects that she and Sango have collected over the years. Sango shrugged her shoulders and then sat next to Kagome. Kagome sighed and then looked up at the small opening at the top of the cavern. As she looked, something that was on the surface begun cover the opening. She then said, "What is that?" Kagome quickly got up and swam towards the surface, where she saw strange light reflect off of the water. Sango saw her quickly get up and swim to the surface. She and Kirara followed her and said, "Kagome, come back!" Kagome continued on towards the surface with Sango behind her and unaware to both of them, Kenji.

Well, I hope you liked the first chapter. Next chapter will be out soon. Review please.
