Cut to the Bone-Eater's well. Inu Yasha and Kagome arrive.

Kagome: Oh, I'm so excited! I'll meet my father!

Inu Yasha: Don't count your chickens before they're hatched.

Kagome: Oh, well, I didn't change something important. It won't have influence on the whole course of time.

Inu Yasha: We'll see now.

(They enter the well.)

Scene: Present. Higurashi Monument. Inside the well. Kagome and Inu Yasha arrive.

Kagome: Let's see. (She climbs up the stones and hits her head.) Eh? What's this?

(Inu Yasha takes Kagome's flashlight and points it at Kagome. The well is nailed shut.)

Inu Yasha: Nailed shut. What did you say Kagome?

Kagome: That's not a sign of consequences. Grandpa probably did it for protection from demons that might come through the well.

Inu Yasha: Sure.

(She jumps down to him.)

Kagome: Stop talking and give me a hand here. (Inu Yasha kicks the well open, takes Kagome and jumps out of it.) Thank you very… (She looks around to see that everything's different.) What the…?

Inu Yasha: What happened?

Kagome: Everything looks completely different. Are we really in my time or did we get off the wrong era?

Inu Yasha: No, Kagome, this is definitely your time but some things have changed.

Kagome: Some? Look around! None of this hints at that my family still lives here!

Inu Yasha: We better get away from here, Kagome. Let's see what else is different.

Kagome: O… okay. What happened here? Why is everything looking different and where is my family?

(They set off.)

Inu Yasha: Damn, Miroku was right! Kagome really changed an important part of the past and the whole course of time as well.

Kagome: Inu Yasha, can you find my family?

Inu Yasha: I try to catch their scent. Um, Kagome…

Kagome: I don't wanna hear anything from you. I didn't change too much. Of course there're some changes when you alter the past.

Inu Yasha: I think I found your mother. She's close.

Kagome: Take me to her.

Inu Yasha: You don't need to tell me that. (He puts her down on the sidewalk.) Look over there, isn't that her?

Kagome: Yes, you are right. (She walks to the woman.) Hey, Mom!

Woman: Hmh?

Kagome: Hello, Mom.

Woman: I'm sorry my girl but you seem to mistake me with someone.

Kagome: What?

Woman: Are you a little confused?

Kagome: I should be asking you that!

Woman: I'm sorry but I don't have children.

Kagome: But –

Inu Yasha: Kagome, do you realize it now? Let's hurry and leave.

Kagome: Wait! Don't you even know a man called Hitoro?

Woman: Hitoro? No, I never heard of him. I'm sorry but I have to go now. I hope you find your true mother. (She leaves.)

Kagome: But that can't be true. He should be here now.

Inu Yasha: Look, Kagome, she didn't know you or ever meet your father, so you haven't even been born here in this new world, neither has your brother. Like it or not you did change too much!

Kagome: Wait, one last thing! Take me to my school, please. I have to know if the Sango and Miroku from my time exist here.

Inu Yasha: Can't you imagine that? If even you don't actually exist here…

Kagome: Please, Inu Yasha.

Inu Yasha: Keh! Get on my back.

(They set off to Kagome's school.)

Kagome: They have to be here. (She looks around.)

Inu Yasha: They're not. Kagome, can we please go back to my time now. I don't like to admit it but this world is freaking me out.

Kagome: Yeah, let's go. (They go back to the well.) I can't believe it. I was never born and because my mom and dad never met in a lifetime and the Sango and Miroku from the Feudal Era couldn't have kids either. Does that mean they are about to die? Just because of me? Please not…

Inu Yasha: I hope for you that Miroku has a solution for this.

Kagome: There isn't any. I would need to turn back time and undo Akuma's death but I can't do that. I haven't got the power for that.

Scene: Feudal Era. Forest. Inu Yashas and the gang and Myouga are standing there.

Miroku: I told you that could happen. Now you have chaos at your time.

Myouga: Not only in her time but in every time. Even here. Nobody knows what you caused for this time.

Kagome: The reincarnations of Miroku and Sango weren't there, either.

Myouga: Of course. Not even you were. You were never born. You didn't change a piece of the past but the whole course of time!

Kagome: But doesn't that actually mean that they will die early?

Sango: What?

Miroku: Yes, that's what it means.

(Kagome bursts out in tears.)

Kagome: I'm so sorry. I didn't want that.

(Sango comforts her.)

Sango: Nobody blames you, Kagome. You didn't know that this would happen.

Shippou: Isn't there anything we can do?

Myouga: To put everything right again Akuma has to live again.

Inu Yasha: And how do we do that?

Miroku: We can't do that. We haven't got the power required. We have to find someone who has the power over the time. Maybe a sorcerer or a tenyou.

Kagome: Are they really some in this era who can do that?

Miroku: I don't know. I never met or heard of one. Myouga, do you?

Myouga: Yes, there is someone. A sorcerer who is the protector of the time and is supposed to see to that nobody plays with it.

Sango: Can he turn it back?

Myouga: Yes, he can but he might not want to.

Inu Yasha: We just make him doing it. Where is the problem?

Myouga: The problem is that this guy never let's anyone near him. Nobody knows where he hides out. Few have ever seen him. He isn't known for corporations.

Shippou: But we have to try. Otherwise Kagome can never go back home.

Sango: But how do we find him?

Myouga: There is a ritual for calling him. But I can't promise he will listen to it and come.

Kagome: But we have to try it.

Scene: Forest. Inu Yasha and the gang and Myouga are on their way to the sorcerer.

Inu Yasha: Why can't we just do the ritual everywhere we want?

Myouga: I suppose his hide-out is somewhere around here, so he just listens to the call at this place.

Miroku: Myouga, what's the sorcerer's name?

Myouga: It's Avataro-dono.

Kagome: What do we have to do?

Myouga: Put your hand on this stone. All of you.

(They do so.)

Miroku: And now?

Myouga: Now you make the call.

Sango: That's all? That's the whole ritual?

Myouga: It's not the simplicity that's important but whether Avataro-dono wants to help you.

Miroku: Well, then let's go. Avataro-dono, we who are standing here ask for your audience! We need your help to reset time to put the course of time right back into order! This should be in your interest, too as you are the one protecting the time from misuse!

(Something's arriving above them.)

Myouga: You are lucky. Avataro-dono will listen to you!

(Avataro appears.)

Miroku: Avataro-dono, we thank you for listening to us.

Avataro: You are lucky. Usually I don't even talk to others.

Myouga: Avataro-dono, we really treasure your kindness.

Avataro: Myouga, so you brought this people here.

Myouga: Yes, I did, Avataro-dono because I knew the reason they're calling you for isn't unimportant to you.

Avataro: That's true. Someone has had willingly influence on the time to fulfill own individual desires not regarding the damage he or she could cause throughout all times and eras. Past, present and future.

Sango: So you know what happened?

Avataro: It's my task to supervise time. I can feel it if someone plays with it. I know it was one of you but I don't know who exactly. Have you got the courage to accept your fault and tell me that it was him or her?

Kagome: It was me.

Avataro: You don't deny what you did. I like that. Have you realized your fault?

Kagome: Yes, I did. What I did was wrong. I put my own desires over the good of all the other people. I'm sorry.

Avataro: Alright. I will help you undo your deed because you are honest and realized your act was wrong. If you hadn't you would have had to suffer from the consequences. But your heart is good and so there is no reason for me not to forgive you and help you to put everything right.

Miroku: Thank you very much, Avataro-dono.

Kagome: Yes, thank you.

Avataro: When I turn back time only few of you will keep their memory. (He looks at Inu Yasha and Kagome.) The ones who do will have to prevent it from re-happening. (They nod.) Alright, let's do it. (He starts turning back time. There is a harsh wind surrounding them.)

Inu Yasha: Kagome!

(He holds her. Kagome holds Shippou. Miroku holds Sango. Time resets.)
