Well fine, nobody loves me except Katie and Ashley. Oh well, maybe if I keep trying no one will hate me anymore sniff

(Love ya Tenshi's who answered me!)

Also please don't comment on the odd change from third person view to Shalimar's view, my mistake.

And YES I KNOW it has been a long time since I updated…DEAL

Disclaimer: I do not own InuYasha…but I have half a claim on Sesshoumaru (kidding)

Crap

An unrefined, un-elegant word used to describe certain items left behind by most of the animal population. This word can also represent certain situations that happen to a person.

This would be one of those moments.

I Shalimar Sparrow was stuck in a well. And not any well either. I could deal with being stuck in any old well made out of wood. However I could not deal with the fact that I was in a well, that happened to be located in Feudal god-damned Japan.

I lived in the 21st century, and I cam here by mistake. And now I am stuck, listening to the snoring of an inu youkai, a perverted monk of Buddha, a demon slayer, a modern day girl from nearby my own home, a tiny kitsune and a neko demon with two tails.

"Damn…it…why…did…I…have…to…be…so…damned…curious…stupid..." I muttered to myself, hitting my head on the sides of the Bone Eaters well to emphasize each of my words. Several choice swear words floated from my lips as I tried to think this thing through.

How did I get through?

"I jumped in the well."

Well than why can't I get out the same way?

"I don't know you idiot.

Well I should be able to get through the same way…

"Obviously…"

"Walton stop, talking to your self is not going to help." I hit my head against the well again. "Except I can't seem to stop damn it"

With a sigh, I pulled myself up. My feet reminded me that I still had on my wedge heels. Not exactly the best type of shoe on to survive in the forest filled with random youkai.

I'll fix that later…

Climbing up out of the well was not exactly the easiest thing to do, but I survived with only a few scratches.

The InuYasha gang, as I had started to call it in my head, was all sleeping. Except for the dog. He was up in a tree and his eyes were shut but that didn't really fool me. He was going to catch my scent pretty quick too. Luckily one of my talents was masking my scent, so I did that pretty quickly, taking off my shoes so I could stay silent and figure out what to do.

InuYasha didn't like me, which was for sure. In fact everyone except for Kagome was pretty wary of me, wanting to know how I had gotten through and what I was doing following them and how I had been able to keep up. I had to get out of there pretty quick so I didn't learn much about them except for their places in society, and how Kagome had gotten through here in the first place. I didn't even bother to learn there names.

So basically what I am trying to say here is that staying with them was not an option. However I really didn't have much of a choice. Seeing as I didn't visit this era frequently I didn't exactly know anyone else. I could always survive on my own but I wanted to get back, and the girl seemed to be the only way to do that. And with my brilliant mind I deduced that the only way to stay alive and find my way back home, was to stalk them of course.

If I followed them I would keep in contact with the Kagome girl, find out what the hell was going on and of course have a little fun on the side.

So, putting my shoes back on I walked 10 or 15 feet away downwind, just in case the inu was able to sniff me out. Better safe then sorry as they say.

Making myself as comfortable as one can be in a tree, I settled down, hoping that my keen fox ears – they had appeared along with my red bushy fox tail when I used some of my youkai power to mask my scent - would be able to hear their waking up sounds so I wouldn't be left behind.

The next morning I actually woke up before Kagome and the rest of them woke up. Luckily it gave me some time to get my own breakfast, and on the menu today was…fish!

Licking my claws I decided to check on the others. I wasn't really worried; I mean how fast could they go? So I meandered slowly away from the creek where I had caught my fish, grooming back my hair and cleaning my hands as I went. And when I got back to the camp…they were gone.

"Shit…" And there you will notice my usage of another word which is un-refined and can also be described as certain droppings left behind by animals.

Rubbing my palm to my forehead I surveyed the area where the people had been before I left. The only things left now were footprints and a lonely instant ramen container. Empty of course.

"Well…" I said to myself, looking at where the foot/paw prints led off to, "I guess I just got to follow my nose…and these footprints."

Running up the path that they had so kindly left behind for me, I fervently hoped that none of them could fly or else I would be as lost as a….well as a fox demon in a strange era with random demons lurking around trying to eat me. Fun ne?

--------x------------x---------x-----------x---------x---------x---------x-----------x

About a half an hour later, I had caught a very strong whiff of some sort of dog demon. I figured it would be InuYasha I mean how many inu demons wandered around in the feudal era? I had lost their tracks after awhile. Apparently the cat with two tails had some sort of ability with flight. Her prints and the humans disappeared after ten minutes. I had never seen Kagome's in the first place so I wondered if she had ridden on the cat or on InuYasha. And InuYasha's prints were barely visible, since he was going fast his feet hardly hit the ground, and when they did it was very softly.

So now I was lost and was hopelessly following the scent of a random inu youkai (which I was praying to Kami that is was InuYasha).

After about another twenty minutes I was pretty sure I had found him. The only thing that bothered me was that I was way off the original path, and there was no scent of humans about. Well not a very strong scent anyway.

My ears found him/her/it first. Quiet and stealthy steps could be heard directly in front of me, so I climbed up the nearest tree hoping the foliage would cover any view of me.

Finally someone came into view…and of course it was…not InuYasha.

Whoever it was, he was drop – dead – gorgeous. I was guessing it was a male since (he) had spiky, well used armor, two swords at his belt and a very male-ish looking kimono (A/N what is a guy's kimono called? It's like a haori or something right?). The only thing that did not look at all masculine about him was his hair. It was down below his waist, silver and shimmered – much like InuYasha's I noticed – and was very well cared for by the look of it. I was so jealous.

I couldn't see his face very well, but he seemed to be looking for something. He kept on sniffing the air which made me a little nervous. I feverishly hoped that I hadn't lost my scent – masking knack.

He stopped for a second and looked in my direction for half a second, long enough to scare me out of my wits. He had a handsome face though I had to admit. Not particularly happy looking but hey, who could be happy when they are stuck in the feudal era?

He just stood there after a while, standing…not moving a muscle. It was getting incredibly and infuriatingly boring. Finally I couldn't take it anymore. Besides maybe he was related to InuYasha, and then I could find the group, stalk them a little longer and get the hell out of here. So, grooming back my hair again, pleading to the all Kami that my feminine guiles were still in fighting form, I took a deep breath…and jumped.

Landing on the ground with little more than a soft thud, I turned slightly to look at the demon. He seemed amazingly nonplussed about me jumping out of a tree. He looked at me and I instantly knew I was going to die a slow and painful death at the hands of the best looking bishi I had ever seen.

But he didn't move so I stood my ground, straightening up from my low positioned crouch. Slowly, I walked over to the inu. He didn't say anything when I moved closer so I got more confidence and moved closer to his side, careful to stay far enough away that I could run if need be.

He didn't do anything, just looked my way with his casually slanted eyes and looked forward again. That wasn't much of a response, so with a grin that could have beaten the Cheshire cat's, I leaned up and whispered

"So you've been waiting all this time for me to come down ne? Does that mean you want a hug?"

The responsive growl that I got told me that he did not care for my flirtations. Well that was a bummer.

I was going to lean up and whisper more seductions, hoping that he would sweep me up in his arms, we would have a feudal era fling, and I would get to brush his hair. We would laugh and frolic in the fields of daisies, and then I would leave and break his heart.

My little day dream of him sobbing on the ground pleading for me to stay was broken when a little slimy looking green thing came up to Mr. Icy yelling out "Master! Master!"

"Holy shit what the fuck is that?" I screamed, clinging to the mans silk kimono.

It was amazing; my sudden display of girly-ness actually made him talk (and sort of growl while talking…)

"You do not touch this Lord Sesshoumaru."

You should all be very happy. I updated now LOVE me.

(sorry about the sort of shortiness…my math teacher has decided that we need at least enough homework in our lives to cause enough stress for a heart attack.)

NOW REPLY DAMNIT!!!

And to Katie and Ashley I LOVE YOU
