Chapter Two:

Darkness.

It enveloped her and every time she tried to resurface into the light, she bobbed back under into the darkness. It was suffocating her and a panicked feeling grew within her chest. Then, just like that, she felt herself getting lighter. But she felt wrong.

She felt warm. Not suffocating warmth, but comfortable, like she was smothered in light. There wasn't the slight chill she normally felt from her school uniform. Did someone put a blanket on me?

Groaning, Kagome opened her eyes slowly. Her world was hazy at first and she blinked a few times to clear her vision. I feel really…weird. What happened?

If she thought seeing would make everything clearer, Kagome soon found herself mistaken. Almost instantly she had a headache from how vivid everything was. The details in the blades of grass beside her were so sharp. She saw a bug crawling up a nearby flower and found that she could see the tiny little veins within its wings, even though it was a dozen feet away.

Then there were the noises! Kagome could hear birds singing in distant trees. A hundred meters away, she heard a squirrel scurrying up a tree. She could even hear the familiar voice of Sango and Miroku if the wind blew the right way. What's going on? They are way too far away for me to hear!

Kagome's headache grew worse and worse, as all the sounds seemed to close in on her. She clenched her eyes shut and closed away the newly defined world. Noises kept pouring in and Kagome groaned and went to cover her ears…and she was met with nothing. She clasped her hands on the side of her head in shock as her fingers and palms met with just hair. How could she be hearing so well if her ears were missing? Panicked, Kagome dug her fingers around through her hair wildly. Her blood ran cold as her nails brushed against something fuzzy.

Trying to remain as calm as possible, Kagome worked her fingers up the sides of the fuzzy appendage growing from her head. A sense of dread overcame her when she realized that she knew what she was feeling. Ears. They feel the same as when I played with Inuyasha's ears.

Carefully, she rubbed one ear between her finger and thumb…and a most pleasurable feeling ran down her spine. Kagome felt a sound somewhere between a moan and purr escape her lips. Immediately she stopped. She could feel a blush growing on her cheeks. Quickly, she sat up and looked around to make sure Inuyasha wasn't there to see.

Her heart seemed to stop in her chest when she saw herself lying on the grass a few feet away. But…that's…how..?

Kagome put her hands out in front of her and tried not to cry out in confusion and shock when she saw, not her own hands, but Inuyasha's clawed ones held in front of her. Experimentally, she wiggled a finger; Inuyasha's clawed finger did exactly as she commanded. She looked down and saw not her own body, but Inuyasha's. She ran a hand down the front of the red robe of the fire rat and ran a clawed finger through a lock of silvery hair that blew lightly in the wind. Fear began to creep into her mind as she realized what was going on.

She didn't know how. She didn't know why.

But Kagome was trapped inside Inuyasha's body.

She thought it was the worst thing that could ever happen. That was until her new super sensitive dog-ears caught the sound of her unconscious body stirring on the grass. If I'm in Inuyasha's body, then…

A high-pitched scream echoed through the clearing.
