I do not own Inuyasha or the characters. They belong to Rumiko Takahashi and the other creators. The only characters I own are the made up ones which help the Rumiko's character along in the story.

ENJOY ^_^

Getting Started

Kagome Higurashi, a twelfth grader and finally passed two grades, which made her, friends, and family very happy. Now she was 17 years old. It was summer break. Every summer there are festival themes. Kagome and her friends did the play called Ice Dancer. Today was Friday and the festival was four weeks away. Kagome is a ballerina who lives in an ice kingdom where Hojo the samurai comes to rescue her from the evil demon of the snow. Her friends made her do it, because she gone most of the time and want her to join something for the festival. Kagome was happy to join in and get to spend time with them. They were finish with there practice. Hojo was really happy, because he gets to dance with Kagome and at the end of the play he has to kiss her.

"Hey Kagome, don't forget that the festival play starts in four weeks," Ayumi said handing her a mixed CD with the names on the back on the CD cover and her script.

"Try to remember your lines unlike last year when you completely forgot your lines and then having random props and people," Yuka said.

"Sorry about that it won't happen again," Kagome said with a worried smile hoping that Inuyasha stays where he is and not ruin things.

"Good. Hey you, what in the world are you doing with that. You need to put that there," Eri said excusing herself to fix a problem.

"Oh Yuka I will be gone for three weeks practicing and studying my lines, so I won't get distracted," Kagome told her then Eri came by after she was done telling the other people what to do.

"Just make sure you come back on the forth week before Thursday so we can practice and work out the kinks before Sunday, ok." Eri said smiling then stopped when someone wasn't doing their job.

"Kagome do know the story about the Ice Dancer?" Ayumi asked.

"No,"

"Well there was beautiful dancer who made people happy. He wanted her for himself, so his demons saw this and kidnap her bringing her to their king. He forced her to dance for him. The demon king lived up in the snowy part of Japan. Then a wondering samurai heard about this story by a little village up north. He took this upon himself to save her. He set out on his journey to save her but she…..," Before she could finished the last part Hojo came by and Eri and Yuka took this chance grabbing Ayumi away.

"Hey Kagome, want me to walk you home," Hojo said with a smile while friends nod their head yes.

Hojo was still trying to get Kagome heart all throughout high school during the summer, but no luck. Kagome sigh but told him that she needs to get to the store for her mom. He didn't mind and helped her carry the bags. She picked up some food for her mom and for the feudal era. "Kagome, let me carry that for you," Hojo said walking out of the convenience store by taking each bags into his hands then arms.

"Let me carry some. I don't want you to get hurt. There are seven bags of food," Kagome said finally making Hojo gave up two bags for her.

Still walking all the way to the Shinto shrine was hard for him but managed until he got half way up the stairs. She had two bags where Hojo wanted to carry the rest, which were five more. There was so much to carry that poor Hojo almost tripped up the stairs. Where Kagome grabbed another bag so she has three now and Hojo has two on one arm and two on the other. She opened the front door and set the bags down to thank him for his help. He smiled putting the bags down and waved good-bye. She called out for some help and Sota came in.

"Hey sis, why do you have so many bags?" Sota asked picking up them and heading towards the kitchen.

"Mom making her famous dish of sukiyaki," She said picking the rest of the reaming bags.

"That's right, can't wait to eat it," He said running through the kitchen to get mom to start on the sukiyaki.

They walked through the living room and saw Inuyasha sitting by the table and playing with Buyo while Grandpa talking about his ancestors in the Sengoku period. Kagome's mother was getting ready to pare dinner and she was happy having her family there. The reason being was that the recipe was passed down through the family. After Kagome placed the bags down in the kitchen; she ran back to pick up her backpack. Inuyasha was at the doorframe looking upset.

"What took you so long to get back, Kagome?" He sneered.

"Uh, I had to learn my lines and other things. What are you doing here?!" Kagome asked holding her backpack in her hands.

"I came to get you," Inuyasha said crossing his arms. "We can go now."

"Could you both leave after dinner?" Kagome's mother said poking her head out.

"Sure mom," Kagome said giving him a dirty look.

"Fine," Inuyasha said knowing if he pushed back that he would hear the two words he fear most 'Sit Boy' making him shutter in horror. They had their meal and said good-bye. Kagome's mother pack lunches for her and her friends and some left over too. When they went through the Bone Eater's Well Shippo was waiting with Kirara. It was midday and the sky look so beautiful with orange and yellow crashing into each other with a hit of pink here and there.

"Hey Shippo," Kagome said with a smile rushing his hair.

"Hi Kagome, did you bring some ninja snacks?" Shippo asked wagging his tail.

"Where are Miroku and Sango?"

"They are helping Kaede out." He said getting ready to jump on Kagome's shoulder.

Inuyasha didn't say much and headed off to the village with them.

"What's wrong with Inuyasha?" She whispered.

Before Shippo got the chance to tell her Inuyasha yelled at them to hurry up. They left the well and headed towards the village. She was trying to understand what is going on. When they got there Miroku told the females of the village how beautiful they were and Sango chasing him. He laughed and knowing that would make her pissed. He said he was sorry. Miroku was happy that Sango has agreed to have his kids and that Naraku is dead. They got married after he was dead. As soon they saw them coming from the well and ran up to them.

"Are we ready to leave?" Miroku asked looking over his shoulder seeing the other women blush and Sango mad.

"Why are we such a rush to leave?" Kagome asked.

"Ah, someone stole the Jewel of Four Souls again!" Inuyasha shouted his ears are twitching.

"How the barrier got broken? Kaede and I made it so no demon or the ill at heart can take it,"

"Well, someone was very clever or know how to break it," Miroku said placing his hand on his chin.

"The other demons heard about that, so we needed to get moving," Sango said.

Lady Kaede came out and handed Kagome some herbs. After that they all left the village while Kaede waving them good-bye. She went back to the village helping a young woman who is about to give birth. Kagome left her bike at home because it was broken by her last adventures so she walked who made Inuyasha irritated on how slow she was. They were heading north just guessing on where to go.

"Hurry up Kagome," Inuyasha shouted.

"Well excuse me for being human," Kagome huffed crossing her arms.

"Well....," He said before Miroku covered his mouth with an apologized look on his for him.

Kagome look at them and went ahead with the others while Miroku still has his hand over his mouth.

"What did you do that for?!" He shouted.

"Do you want to make Kagome mad at you and tell you sit?" Miroku said grabbing Inuyasha's shoulders.

"No," Shaking his head fast.

They caught up with the girls and Shippo. Kagome let go of what had happen and remember that she needs to practice her dance. The girls and Shippo went on Kirara's back while the guys ran. They thought if they travel at night would be faster. Five hours in and the girls were getting tired. They asked if they could rest. The guys agreed because they need some energy to fight some demons if need be also finding the jewel. It was dark and the stars were slashing across the sky where the moon glowed like the sun, but in a delicate way. They made camp by a waterfall just a few miles away. Everyone was out expect for Kagome. She had to practice, so she snuck off and headed towards the falls. The falls were three miles but she had too because she didn't want to wake up the others. She took out her flashlight and went on head. When she got there it was gorgeous the waters sparkles like diamond dust having the moon display in the middle of the lake. She took off her backpack reaching in to grab her CD and a small radio. She placed the CD into the radio CD player. She used the light of the moon to dance and practice her lines. The mix CD has the tile of the play Ice Dancer. She didn't know that someone or something was watching her; well one of them accidently saw her and smiled.
