**This one of my older stories so the writing style isn't quite the same as my more recent stories, but everyone has their beginnings in fan fiction and this story happened to be mine. It was posted under my other pen, but due to circumstances, I place under this pen. I haven't changed anything about the story so it shall be as it was the first time I posted it. Anyway, enough with my prattling, on with the story!

What Fate Decides Part 1

Kagome stood with her back to the bone-eater's well, and glared up at her little brother. She gasped in shock as many arms grabbed her and pulled her into the well.

In the midst of her fall, she turned to see a strange female still grasping her.

"What joy... what strength I feel..." it said. "You...have it...yes?"

"LET ME GO, YOU FREAK!!!" Kagome screamed, and pushed the woman away. She let out another shriek as she watched the arm snap.

Kagome heard it yell, "I will not lose it now... the jewel of four souls..."

It disappeared as Kagome finally hit the bottom of the well.

She had no idea what the creature meant. What about the jewel of four souls? Wasn't it just a legend?

No time to worry about that - she was more interested in getting out of the well.

She climbed out and found herself surrounded by a lush, green forest. Where had everything gone?! The house; the mini shrine; everything...!

She wandered a bit, but soon found herself lost. Why did this have to happen to her? She gave a long, exasperated sigh and continued to trudge along.

"We've really botched this one..." a tall figure muttered before looking at her two friends.

"It's not that bad is it, Kalika?" one girl piped in hopes for a good answer.

"Probably worse . The girl was supposed to go to the 16TH century not the 15TH," the other replied, before letting the lead figure speak

"Who asked you, Miaka?!" the first girl snapped.

"Miaka's right, Katona," Kalika replied."Our first day as the fates over these lands and we have already caused a disruption. We'll may have to let things be until we can find a way to set things straight. Will you at least agree on that?''

"Yes."

"Who be you?! What are you doing on these lands?!"

Kagome turned to se a group of men, dressed in old armor. She may have thought it funny other than for the spears pointed at her head.

"Tis a spy," one said, "We must bring her to our lord," said another.

"Wha...Hey!Let me go!" Kagome cried as they dragged her off through yet another unfamiliar area of woods. This couldn't be happening...

She bulked and wriggled in their grasp as they pulled her into a large home. She was lead to a room and forced to kneel before a throne. She glanced about nervously, knowing that what happened now would determine her fate.
