'Ello, I'm back with the Sequel to The End Is Just A Beginning, T-JAB for short. This picks up right where T-JAB left off, with Kagome jumping into the well, and well, you'll see.

Disclaimer: I do not own any recognizable characters, so no asking. I just play in the sand, don't own the box. Enjoy the read!

Chapter 1

I emerged out of the blue light to hear the sounds of a struggle going on. I groaned and then jumped up to the top of the well. I looked around and saw that there were what appeared to be villagers of the demon slayer variety who were fighting with my housemates. I narrowed my eyes and then dropped back down to the bottom of the well silently. I shucked the Wizarding robes in favor of donning my leather taijiya gear that Sango had gotten me before the last battle where we had killed Naraku. I jumped back up and landed on the wooden frame with a whistle in my mouth.

TWEET!

I blew on the whistle as hard as I could and then stood there while the slayers and my house recovered from the whistle. Then I jumped off the well. Someone had placed the well house over it already. I smiled inwardly and stalked down the small set of stairs that led to the ground. I walked through the battlefield and helped all of my people up, asking if they were okay. I got a nod and small smile and I nodded and moved on until I got to the last one of my people still dusting off; Harry.

"You alright?" I asked him in undertones. He nodded.

"Yeah, they just swarmed us soon as we came out of the well. It was humiliating, not being able to use the Tetsusaiga to protect the others." I nodded and noticed that there were now two black dog ears flattened to the top of his head. I chuckled and reached up to scratch them.

"Don't worry," I muttered. "It's probably overly anxious villagers who've had a recent influx of demon sightings and humans getting killed."

"Hn, still doesn't make me feel better." He growled angrily. The effect was ruined somewhat when he started a low, soft rumble.

I nodded again in sympathy and then I cupped my hands and did the Shikon Team's bird call for friend coming home, putting that extra trill on at the beginning and end that only I was capable of doing. Soon I heard the rustling of leaves in the Goshinboku and I looked up for the red haori the I knew he would be wearing. "C'mon out Inuyasha. I still don't bite." I was teasing him, and he and I both knew it. Another rustle of leaves and a hanyou with long silver hair and burn amber eyes dressed in a red haori and hakama was standing in the exact same spot that I had been sitting in only ten minutes ago.

"K-Kagome? Is that really you?" He stood there with his mouth hanging open. I nodded and then saw a shadow passing by overhead. Seconds later, Kirara had landed and Miroku and Sango were jumping off of her, along with a third figure with a shock of bright ginger hair. I instinctively took a glance at Ron to make sure that I still had him, and that he hadn't gone running off. Nope, but then who was that?

"MAMA!" I instinctively put my arms out to catch the ginger blur that was coming for me. I hit the ground with a loud huff as my kit burrowed into my shoulder. I saw that every single member of my house had their weapons out and were either pointing them at Inuyasha, Sango or Miroku, or they were pointed at my kit. I let out a growl and flattened my ears against my head.

"Stand down, House Akuma," I said getting back up without letting go of my kit. "These people mean us no harm."

"Are you sure of that Kagome?" Cedric growled, still facing the other three. "They don't smell right."

"Yes you idiot wolf, I'm sure." I sighed. "Cedric, stand down." My voice4 was firmer, leaving no room for hesitation. I glanced at the ball of fur that I was still holding. "Ship-dip, why are you still holding on to me?"

"Cause, I'm gonna have to change back to my older self then, and I just want you to hug me," came the muffled reply.

I rolled my eyes. "Well, I could probably hug you better if you were your proper size. Not to mention that my pack is getting kind of antsy with you hanging onto me." That last part was a whisper. Shippo thought it over then jumped down from my arms and scampered a few feet away. He started growing but that was all I saw.

I was caught up into the largest group hug that I thought possible It started in stages though. Inuyasha was the first one to have his arms around me, and I hugged him back, holding tightly. "I was so afraid," I whispered, "that I wouldn't get to come back." Sango was there before Inu could answer me, and then Miroku was hugging both Sango and me, all while I was still hugging Inuyasha, and then Shippo was there to give us all the biggest hug of all. I was set down and reminded rather abruptly why we were here. "Um, guys, is there somewhere private that we can talk?" Miroku nodded.

"Yes you can come to our house. Is there any reason why?"

I nodded. "Yeah, I've been given the task to train your next incarnations."
