Fiction note: Let's say that the Well wasn't sealed up after their quest was over and Kagome had the chance to go see her friends in Sengoku era – whenever she wanted to.
The Bones' Eater Well must have malfunctioned or something. Kagome knew this wasn't the Sengoku era – or even Japan!

An Inuyasha & Nanatsu no Taizai Short Fanfic
"Away from Home"
Written by k-tiraam © 2016
Eyes were closed as the frown over her face deepened. Kagome sat on the ground next to an old well, pondering about the dilemma she was having now. She tried to remember her days at home, before she jumped into the well. So far, she can't think anything abnormal.
She returned from the Sengoku era for three weeks. Check. Spent her time with her family – and shooing Inuyasha away, when he came too early to pick her up. Double check. Went to the school and did her exams. Triple check. She jumped into the well, planning to visit her friends in Sengoku era for a weekend.
Nope.
That was when things got wrong. This most certainly was not the Sengoku era. Kagome opened her eyes again and pinched herself. Still not a dream. She leaned back against the aged well, hitting her head against it and groaning in frustration. Final conclusion was that the Well had taken her somewhere else. Kagome tried to return but it didn't work. She was starting to feel a bit panicked. No one knew that she was elsewhere; not her family or her friends in Sengoku era.
Kagome covered her eyes with a hand, trying to calm herself and preventing from crying. Not fair, all she wanted was live herself in a normal way – well, as normal as she could while travelling between two different time periods. Why was she being punished like this?
"Ahem. Excuse me? Are you lost miss?" A tiny voice asked her quite close to her.
Kagome breathed in and out, calming herself. She wouldn't fall apart now, especially when there was someone nearby. "I… I'm fine, thank you for asking. I'm just a bit tired…"
"Oh?" The voice said. "You know, I'm heading back to the tavern that's really close here. Why don't you come with me and rest there a bit? I can't guarantee about the equality of the food there, though."
Finally Kagome managed to calm her nerves, taking the hand away from her eyes. "Thank you so much…" What she saw was a bit unexpected. There was a pig close to her. Has she been talking to a pig? Where was the owner of the voice she has been talking to?
"You're welcome!" The pig said which surprised Kagome a bit. "By the way, my name is Hawk! Nice to meet you!" Hawk oink'ed at the end.
Kagome blinked once and then twice. It really shouldn't be much of a surprised for her anymore. Meaning, she had come face to face with various demons that were either human-looking or animal-looking. But this was an actual pig that could talk. A living and talking pig. There were no hints of a demonic aura within the pig.
"Miss?"
The young priestess shook her head, then softly slapping her face. 'C'mon, Kagome! Focus!' Kagome smiled, a bit in an uneasy way. "Nice to meet you, Hawk. I'm Kagome. Also, thank you for helping me out. Have to confess that I'm a bit lost here…"
"No worries, Miss Kagome! I'll gladly help you out!" Hawk boasted, acting brave for her. "Just follow me." The pig began to walk forward the hill. "Oh, just a warning, the owner of the tavern is a pervert."
Kagome could sense trouble coming in her way; just what sort of world had she stumbled into?
"Where did Hawk go to?" A young woman with long silver hair wondered, placing an empty tray on top of bar's counter.
"No need to worry about him, Elizabeth," a short blonde man said, "I sent him to put some posters about the Boar's Hat."
"Oh. What about Diane?"
"She went to hunt, so that Ban can cook great meals for the customers." The man replied.
Ban from the table that was close to two of them snorted. "Cap'n~ I didn't agree to this."
"Oh? Why not? You gotta earn your keep in Boar's Hat, Ban. Even Elizabeth is doing her share."
"U-umm… Lord Meliodas!" Elizabeth shrieked, blushing heavily as she felt someone touching her in a shameless way. That someone was the short man himself, groping her butt again.
"The great Hawk is back!" The pig shouted out, forcing the front door open! "And I brought some company! A lady in distress!"
"Umm, Hawk, wasn't it?" They heard a young woman's voice call out. "There's no need to make a big fuss about this… I mean, I'm just lost. I'm not in a danger or anything…"
All three of them blinked at the person Hawk just brought. In front of them stood quite petite, pretty-looking young woman, with wavy raven-black hair that reached to her shoulder blades and she had greyish blue eyes. However, her clothes were very different from the local women's clothing. She wore a white cardigan beneath it a dark pink top, a short black skirt (not quite short that Elizabeth wore) and black flat shoes (also known as moccasins, but they didn't know what they were called). She carried big backpack with her. (Not her usual, over-sized backpack she carried while searching for the shards of Shikon no Tama.)
Kagome began to fidget, feeling uncomfortable the way they stared. Just where did Hawk lead her into? "Umm, excuse me? I heard I could rest here for a while…?" Suddenly, she felt someone touching her from behind; her hips, her butt and lower back. Also there was some weight on her chest, causing her face turn deep red.
"You're slightly taller than me, but you got a nice figure. And you got great taste with the clothing." Meliodas mumbled in satisfaction.
A vein pop appeared above Kagome's twitching eye brow, lifting her right hand high up. "You… PERVERT!" She hit the blonde man in the face with such force – with the help of her spiritual powers. Her hit sent Meliodas flying over the counter and right at his wine collection on the shelf!
Elizabeth shouted in fright and worry, while Ban gapped at the power the petite woman had in her! Hawk also was awestruck for a second, but soon he recovered from the shock and walked closer to the young woman.
Kagome was panting hard, trying to calm herself. The nerve of him! Not even Miroku was that bold! The young priestess blinked as she noticed Hawk approaching her. "Ah, Hawk?"
"You're my new hero, miss." The pig stared at her with starry-eyed. "I haven't seen anyone to do that to Meliodas!"
"Huh?" Now she felt someone wrapping an arm around her, pulling her against a hard, very tall, masculine body. "What now?!"
"Bwahahaa~! I've never seen anyone – besides me and Diane – to do that to the Cap'n~!" Ban grinned widely. "Lil' lady, you got guts! I like it~! I will keep you to myself~"
"Eh?!" Kagome shrieked in shock! 'What?! Keep me?! What am I, a pet?! No way!' She tried to free herself from his hold, but it was futile. The white haired man had a good hold on her.
"Oi~ Captain! I'm back! I managed kill few wild animals for dinner!" A loud woman's voice was heard, the ground was shaking as the voice came closer and closer. Earthquake? Soon her question was answered when Kagome saw a huge, feminine face looking inside from the window. Not an earthquake, a giant!
Dear lord, what sort of the world had the Well brought her to?!
Thankfully, both Hawk and Elizabeth managed to calm things down for everyone, so they could all listen to Kagome's story. Diane sat outside the Boar's Hat, listening from the open window while Kagome told her story.
"… Then I found myself here instead. I planned to meet my friends, but… for some reason, I arrived here." Kagome frowned sadly, staring down to void any eye contacts. Elizabeth sat close to her, taking a hold of Kagome's hand and trying to comfort her. Poor girl, so far away from her home, friends and family. Elizabeth could understand what she was going through; she also missed her family and home.
Meliodas could still feel the pain from Kagome's slap. Such a petite girl who could threw quite a punch! He really shouldn't underestimate people the way they look. Although, when she slapped him he felt something else; a hidden power, which felt different from any other magic he had felt before. More divine and pure – it felt like a Goddess' power. But Meliodas couldn't be sure of it.
"Not to worry, Miss Kagome! We will find a way for you to return home!" Hawk said, trying to console the black haired young woman.
"Huh~? But I don't want let go of her~" Ban said, frowning. "She's mine~"
Kagome coughed, glaring at the tall man. "I'm no one's property, I'm a human being!"
"Hmm~? Nope, you're mine." Ban said seriously. Kagome felt another vein pop appear over her temple. Gods, not another Kouga.
"Lord Ban, please! We need to help Miss Kagome to find her way home." Elizabeth pleaded, hoping to prevent a fight from starting.
"Hmm, how can we help her with that? She already told us that the magical well where she came from doesn't work anymore." Diane pointed out, causing Kagome to sigh in mild sadness. Elizabeth hugged the other girl, comforting her.
Meliodas hummed thoughtfully. This gave the motivation for them to search for the rest of Deadly Sins. Perhaps Merlin could help them out with this dilemma. "Then it settles! Miss Kagome will join our company, until we'll find Merlin."
Kagome blinked. 'Merlin? As in the Merlin from King Arthur's stories? No way… But, what if the stories and myths of my world are real in this?' The longer Kagome remained to this world, the more convinced she became to the fact that this really was an alternative world of the Earth she knew and loved. This world's history held no similarities with hers! Well, there were some, but here magic existed and so did giants.
Not to mention she felt something from the tavern's owner, Meliodas. Something dark dwelled within him – was he a demon or a warlock? Did the demons exist in this world too? Then there was this white haired man, Ban, who also felt a bit off. Sure, he was human with some sort of magical ability, but there was something else she couldn't put her finger on.
Kagome sighed quietly; it looked like she needed to sharpen her senses. Once she got the opportunity and some peace, she would start meditating again, focusing on increasing her spiritual powers. Something told her, she was going to need them in this world.
Few more things were also needed, a bow and arrows. Better ask from those later, because right now, she was starting feel a bit hungry.
"First of all, thank you for helping me out with this. I understand you're on a quest of your own and yet you agreed to help me out as well." Kagome said, smiling as she started to feel a bit relieved. She won't be alone in this world after all. "Second, I heard from Hawk," she pointed at the pig next to her, "that I could get something to eat. I'll pay you for it."
"No need! You're our companion now. All you need to do is to work here, as we search for any rumours about the others." Meliodas grinned at her. "As for the food," the blond man rolled up his sleeves, "it's on the house!"
"Wait a sec, Cap'n~! I'll cook for her! I don't want you to poison her!" Ban stood up quickly, went to outside to fetch the dead deer Diane managed to hunt for them. He took the kill into the kitchen and began to cook.
Kagome titled her head a bit. "Is he really a good cook?"
Meliodas chuckled. "The best! His cooking is absolutely delicious!"
"Huh. I'll believe that once I see it!" Hawk said.
Hours later, one of the tables was filled with Ban's cooking. Meliodas was not telling lies; the food looked absolutely amazing!
"Well," said the cook, "dig in." Ban said to the black haired woman, grinning with eyes shut.
Kagome hesitated for a moment, but took a hold of her fork and knife, slicing a piece of meat on her plate. She took a bite of it, chewed for couple times and then froze.
"It's bad, isn't it?" Hawk asked.
"N-no. It's really delicious." Kagome savoured the taste of it. Who would've known that the man could make something this good? Shows her not to judge the person from his looks!
Meliodas laughed softly, taking a sip of his wine. "Ban is the master chef where I'm the master of knowing all the wines across the country!"
Ban laughed out loud. "That's true, Cap'n~! You're a bad chef~!" He also took a gulp of the wine he just snatched from the shelf.
Elizabeth also joined in, filling her plate with Ban's cooking. As she took a bite, Elizabeth sighed in delight, loving the taste of the food. "It's really good!"
While eating, Kagome began to think; perhaps her time here wouldn't be too bad. She already got to know of pretty interesting people who seemed to be trustworthy enough – especially Elizabeth. Diane was still a bit doubtful of her. Hawk whispered quickly that Diane loved Meliodas a lot, which was the reason why Diane was suspicious of her.
Hmph.
As if she wanted to be with the pervert.
It was getting late, and there were no costumers yet. Ban had passed out from all the wine he drank. Hawk devoured the leftovers from Ban's cooking, loving it. Meliodas vanished from their sight to somewhere and Diane had also gone away from Boar's Hat – so that she wouldn't scare off the potential costumers.
Elizabeth was cleaning up the place, with the help of Kagome. At first Elizabeth insisted that Kagome didn't need to do anything, but the black haired woman pointed out that she would do her share at the tavern, now that she was part of the crew.
Sound of foot steps came from the stairs, making Kagome turn around. Meliodas was carrying something as he came closer to her. He handed out the wrapped packet to her. "This is for you."
"Oh?" Kagome blinked, accepting it. "Thank you. You really shouldn't have." She began to unwrap it, curious of what it held. Ah. It was the same outfit that Elizabeth was currently wearing. Kagome stared at it for a moment, took a quick look at Elizabeth and stared back at the packet. She gave it back to Meliodas, half-glaring at him. "No thank you. I think I'll wear something else."
"It's a must. It's the waitress's outfit here." Meliodas went to Elizabeth, began to grope her – but she didn't do anything to stop him. Only began to blush when it happened. "Doesn't it look great on Elizabeth? I bet it will look great on you too!"
There was that vein pop again. Kagome gritted her teeth together and was about to smack the perverted bartender again. But she was stopped by two long arms wrapping around her tiny body.
"Caught yah~!"
"Urk! O-oi! Let go!"
Ban hiccupped a bit, began to drag her to the stairs, but Kagome managed to hold on the rail fighting with all her might. "Hey now, stop that." Ban said, surprised of her strength.
"Oi! Ban! Let go of Miss Kagome! We need her help with the customers!" Hawk huffed at the drunken man.
"What customers~? There's no one here~" Taller man wrapped his arms around her again, letting his chin rest on top of her head.
The same question rang over and over inside of her mind; why was she here? Maybe she shouldn't have followed Hawk here. Maybe she should have just ignored the pig and gone elsewhere.
Kagome elbowed Ban on his ribs, catching him off guard and making him release her.
If she had gone elsewhere, would it be any better than this? She thought about it then shook her head. She was better off not thinking about it.
Besides, this lot seemed interesting enough; if you ignore the two perverts.
End of story…?
First draft: February the 13th, 2016
Author's Note: Seriously, am I the first one to write an Inuyasha & Nanatsu no Taizai crossover? It sure looks like, because I haven't seen any fics of this crossover! Not one! o_o I had my doubts about the series at first, but then I met the most awesome fella of the manga, Ban, and I was sold. Soon I began to like the series – a lot! :D Not only the artstyle reminds me a bit of Akira Toriyama's, but the story is quite good!
I was shocked to know that Ban's Japanese voice actor plays also Makoto Tachibana (from Free!) and Takao Kazunari (from Kuroko no Basuke). Must respect the actor….
Ahem. So, how did I do with this (first) Inuyasha & Nanatsu no Taizai crossover? Did you like it? I sure had fun writing it.
This come a bit early, but: Happy Valentine's Day / Friendship's Day! See yah later~!
