Naraku tapped his fingers impatiently as he waited for the arrival of Kagura and Kanna. The task he had sent them on was difficult, but with Kanna's mirror and Kagura's wind power, they would be able to deal with anyone who got in the way. He thought about the knowledge he had shortly found out about. Who knew such a legend was true. He came out of his thoughts when he heard footsteps.
"Did you find it?" he demanded.
Kagura rolled her eyes as she fanned herself with her fan. "Yes and no," she said.
"What is that suppose to mean?"
"We found the object that you desired, but only one person can use it. She got away before we could capture her."
"We have captured two beings that will make her come here to us," Kanna said in her monotone voice.
Naraku nodded. "Very well, but if that fails, I shall destroy you both. I want the power of that flute."
Elsewhere, a figure stood with her hands on her hips. She looked at her brother beside her. "I thought that portal was lost somewhere in Feudal Japan or at least that is what my sources said," she said.
The brother nodded. "But if you noticed, they accent didn't sound of this time. Even from Japan. I bet their clothes were different as well."
"I have to go. The ogre they left here took Gabriel and the book. I can't get the others back right now, but I can at least get him."
Elsewhere in a different place and time, a girl with long raven hair went into the library in her school in search of something her teacher had assigned to do. All this work with the shard hunting was wearing her out. When would she get to do something that was different that hunting for shards and doing homework? With a sigh, she found the book she was looked for.
Kagome shook her head as she read the coved. "Fairyland? What kind of story is this? It looks very old. Older than Grandpa. I better go and check it out so I can get back to class. We'll probably start reading it in class soon."
