Inuyasha and Kagome looked at the villagers. The Villagers were ready to fire on them and kill them.

"Inuyasha. I don't like this." She whispered to him, still holding onto him.

"This is everyday for me. Now that I'm healed, this should be fun." He said, grinning.

"Don't move demons!" One villager shouted.

"Kah! We aren't here to hurt you, you fools! We just got here!" Inuyasha shouted out to them.

"We don't believe you demon! Why should we trust you?" Another Villager shouted out.

"Whatever." Inuyasha said. He grabbed onto Kagome and jumped into a tree. They fired after him. Inuyasha jumped into the air and away from the Villagers.

"I hate them. They always accuse me of everything that goes wrong there." Inuyasha grumbled as he held onto Kagome, making sure she didn't drop.

"Inuyasha... where are we?" Kagome questioned as she looked up at him.

"We are in my era. This is my home." Inuyasha said.

Kagome looked down. "I thought... your home was with us."

Inuyasha gasped. he didn't think Kagome liked him. Well, she was kind to him. But, he was sure she didn't want him around.

he landed in an open feild and set her down.

"It is. Sort of. It's my other home now. I like it there too. This is where I was born, the place I livid. That's all." Inuyasha said, tring to explain how he felt.

'Why to go dumb-dumb' The little voice said.

'Shut up!' Inuyasha retorted.

'Ohhh good come back.' If that voice had a face, Inuyasha was sure it would have rolled it's eyes at him.

'WHy you! You'd better be glad I can't kill you!'

'That's right you can't kill me! I'm you, only the smarter you. The REAL you.'

'The real me huh? The real me is really annoying, so shut up!'

'And YOU are an idiot.'

Inuyasha surpressed a growl. He looked at Kagome again. She was confused and seemed lost in this world.

"It's ok Kagome. I'm here. I know this place like the back of my hand." He said, grinning. His ego was really big sometimes.

"It's not that. It's that... you were beat up when you came to my world. I'm wondering what could be stronger then you?" Kagome answered, looking up at him.

Inuyasha growled. "That's right! That jerk of a demon beat me."

"Who?" Kagome questioned.

"His name is Naruko. He's a very powerful demon who was tring to kill me, saying I was in his way of some jewel, or something like that." Inuyasha answered, looking down at Kagome.

"A jewel? What would a demon want with a jewel?"

"That's my question."

"Lord Inuyasha!" A tiny voice called out. Inuyasha looked down at his shoulder. A little flea was there. Kagome screamed, and smacked the little flea.

Inuyasha stiffled a laugh as the little flea was dealt a blow. Once he recovered he made a glare towards Kagome.

"What a rude girl." He commented.

Inuyasha growled at the little flea, getting ready to flick him off.

"Wait Lord Inuyasha! I am here to answer your question." The little flea said, holding out his hands in the universal sign 'please don't hurt me!'

Inuyasha gave a 'Feh' before putting his hand back down.

"Thank you for sparring me Lord Inuyasha. The Jewel that, that demon was saying is the scared Jewel of the Four souls. It contains powers unamaginable! It can give you any wish you wanted. That's why that demon wants it so badly." The little flea said.

"And HOW do you know all of this?" Inuyasha questioned.

"It's my job as your servent to know these things. You can hear a lot of things when people can't see you." The little flea pointed out.

Kagome blinked. 'A talking Flea?! This is too much!'

"Kagome. Do you happen to know anything about this jewel thing?" Inuyasha asked her.

"Umm well...." Kagome said, tring to search through her memeory. The words seemed to make sence... she just couldn't put her finger on it, but she knew something about that. "I think I do... but..."

"But what?" Inuyasha asked.

"It's hard to remember. I remember hearing about a Jewel like that. It's from one of my Grandfather's stories that he trys to feed to me." Kagome said with a sigh.

"Oh great. If the old geezer would quit telling me all those other stories about the house, then maybe I could have heard it too." Inuyasha complained, sitting down against a tree.

Kagome sighed and sat down next to him.

"Well, if you didn't try to run away from him whenever he was telling you a story, you might know a little more about the jewel."

"Yeah, like you would stick around for one of his stories." Inuyasha huffed.

"I've heard them ALL a hunderd times!" Kagome complained, throwing her arms up in the air to show her emotion.

"Then why don't you remember?" Inuyasha asked in his rough tone.

"Because I never pay attention to him when he starts to go out on a story anymore!" Kagome shouted back.

"Feh!" Inuyasha replayed, turning his attention back to the little flea on his shoulder. "Do you know anything else about the jewel?"

"Like what Lord Inuyasha?" The flea questioned.

"Like where it is located would help out a lot." Inuyasha said, with his usual additude back in place.

"Yes well, I really don't know. That's one thing I haven't been able to find out." The little flea answered back.

"I got it!" Kagome said, snapping her fingers together.

"what? That you have no brain? I could have told you that a long time ago." Inuyasha snapped at her.

"That does it! SIT!" Kagome reprimed.

Inuyasha's face fell, before him slamming into the ground. Kagome huffed, and got up.

She turned away from him. "As I was saying, I think if we can get back to my time I could ask my Grandfather about the Jewel. I bet he knows all about it too."

"Only one problem." Inuyasha said, while pulling his face out of the ground.

"And what's that?" Kagome questioned.

"How are we going to get past the villagers gaurding the well and the area around it?"
