Chapter 1: The Return of a Great Empire
As the crew of Inuyasha is walking through the woods, they stop at a beautiful lake. Kagome says, "It's so pretty! Let's sleep here tonight!" Inuyasha glared at her and said, "Must everything always be pretty for you to like it? I mean c'mon!" Miroku looked around. "It's not that bad. Give the girl a break every once in a while," he said. Inuyasha pointed Tetsuaiga at him. He said, "You are in no position to talk!" "SIT BOY!" screamed Kagome. "I think I'll go look for some food," she said. Sango said, "I'll go too. That way nothing could harm you." "No! I mean, please stay. What could be out here that Kagome couldn't handle?" begged Miroku. "I'll be fine. Just stay here with that," said Kagome pointing to Miroku. Sango nodded.
As soon as Kagome left the area, she could feel a jewel shard. She followed it until she came to a huge field. She stopped and looked straight ahead. Two eyes were staring at her from the weeds. Then, Shippou jumped up on her shoulder. Kagome breathed a sigh of relief. She said, "Oh. Shippou. It's just you. I thought it would be someone like Naraku." Then, Jaken ran by. Kagome froze. Then, she followed him into another forest. When she got very deep into the woods, a thick haze grew around her. She looked on her shoulder. Shippou was no longer there. Then, she looked all around. There was no sign of Jaken. She was left alone in the middle of a deep, foggy forest. What she didn't know was that someone was watching her from the shadows. She had no clue someone was about to strike, until she turned around. There, peering at her from behind the shadows, were two glowing, red eyes. Kagome jumped back. "I've been waiting for you," said a voice. Then, from the direction of the eyes, Shippou was thrown out of the shadows. His clothes were torn, he was bleeding all over, and he was just barely breathing. Kagome knelt beside him and looked in shock. Then, she looked at the eyes. Suddenly, something flashed by one of the trees. It looked like a claw.
"She's taking way too long!" shouted Inuyasha. "I'm going to look for her." He left the camp area and started walking. Then, he got to the field Kagome had been in. Suddenly, he heard a loud crash. He ran towards the woods where he thought the crash came from. When he reached the center of the forest, he stood in shock. There was Shippou lying on the ground. And next to him was Kagome, lying still under a fallen tree. "It's about time you came. I had to make a sound that loud for you to get here," chuckled a very familiar voice. Inuyasha stared at the red eyes. Sesshomaru stepped forth. Staring at his brother who was towering over Kagome's body, Inuyasha asked, "How could you do this? What do you want so bad that you had to kill an innocent girl?" Sesshomaru smiled and replied, "I need you brother. Naraku has become stronger than both of us. The only way we can kill him is if we do a temporary fusion." Inuyasha smiled. "And what's in this for me?" he asked. "The remaining Shikon no Tama shards," said Sesshomaru. Inuyasha agreed to this. Then, he felt the ground shake. Behind Sesshomaru, trees fell over and a city arose from the ground. As if reading Inuyasha's mind, Sesshomaru said, "This is an ancient city. In this city is where I hold the final jewel shards. All we need is the one Naraku has." Inuyasha sliced the tree with Tetsuaiga. He picked up Kagome. Then, he walked to Shippou. Holding Kagome in his arms, he picked up Shippou and placed him on Kagome's stomach. Sesshomaru said, "They'll be fine. Now brother, follow me into the great empire known as Dragonia. Together, we shall surpass Naraku, and get the last jewel shard!"
