All the girls stood waiting at the bus stop. Kaida was still somewhat quieter than earlier in the week. After a few minutes Washi walked up.
"Hey Kaida…"
"Washi…"
"…. Listen Kaida… I wanted to say I'm sorry about how I acted…"
"No… I'm sorry... I shouldn't have yelled at you."
"… I guess we both have something to be sorry for!" They both laughed. "Bye Kaida."
"Bye." The two hugged. Then Kaida said bye to her aunt and uncle. All the other girls were saying good bye to their friends, and boyfriends. Then the bus arrived and the girls all hurried on.
"That's my house right up there." Kagome said as the bus came close to her house.
"Really! I only live a few miles away…. Can I come over for a few?"
"Sure!" Kagome smiled. The bus pulled to a stop and Kaida followed Kagome out. Then the two walked up.
"That's an old tree…" Kaida said as they walked past the tree.
~That's were I first met Inuyasha….~ Kagome couldn't help but think.
"Kagome!" Sota yelled running up and hugging her."Welcome back!"
"Welcome back Kagome." Her mom smiled. "And who is this?"
"My name is Kaida Shaiel…."
"She goes to my school." Kagome smiled.
"Would you like to come in for a snack?"
"Sure."
The girls hung out for an hour. Kaida happily introduced herself to Kagome's grandfather. Finally sighed and had to leave.
After Kaida had left Kagome went upstairs and started packing.
"Finally she's gone!" Inuyasha hissed sliding in thru the window.
Kagome just sighed. ~He's so impatient.~ After everything was packed Kagome headed downstairs. "Mom! I'm going!"
"Alright dear. Be careful."
"Bye!"
"Let's go Kagome." Inuyasha said grabbing her bag and running to the well. The moment she opened the well door, Inuyasha grabbed her and jumped down the well.
A few minutes later Kaida came walking up. ~Man I left my bag.~ Kaida yelled at herself, but stopped. ~Why is the door to the well opened….. I thought Kagome said something about it being off limits….?~
Kaida shrugged and walked into Kagome's house. Sitting by the door was her bright blue backpack. ~Kagome's probably in the bath… I'll call her later.~
As Kaida walked out her eyes were drawn to the well again. Almost as if they had a mind of their own her feet walked over to the well.
~Maybe just a look…..~ She walked in and looked down… unfortunately she had her backpack on which was heavy, and it tipped her over and she fell.
Far off a young girl wearing a young girl wearing an orange kimono ran around in a field picking flowers. Her companions sat over against a tree. One was a two headed dragon keeping its eyes on he and the other was a small toad demon with a two headed staff. Her final companion was upon a hill. She happily ran up to him holding out the flowers.
"Lord Sesshomaru?"
Just then far off in t he distance there was a bright blue light.
"Me lord!" Jaken yelled running up. "Did you see that?"
Sesshomaru's eyes were narrowed towards it for a minute, but then turned and started walking. ~All that matters right now is Naraku.~
"Lord Jaken what was that?" Rin asked.
"I don't know…."
"I think it was pretty!" Rin giggled.
"Come girl. Lord Sesshomaru is leaving without us."
Kanna sat in a room by herself. After a brief second she smiled as her mirror turned blue. ~The one Naraku seeks is here.~
Far off in a small mountain cave a young demon sat. His tail lightly skimmed the floor as he relaxed, but his peaceful moment was interrupted as a bright light flew up into the sky. He jumped up and ran to the foot of the cave and watched as it dispensed. He had seen that light once before… many years ago. His green eyes glowed with delight.
He had waited for a long time and now his waiting was over… and his search began…. He turned his head to look inside the cave.
"Come."
"Finally!" A voice giggled and a small seven year old girl with black hair and green eyes stepped out.
"Yes finally." The demon said. "The quest is finally here."
