Dev layed on his bed and stared up at his white ceiling. "Chiann doesn't talk, how did she tell mom?" he said angerly. "And Ryu is an ass." He balled his fists thinking about how to strangle his little brother without his parents interfearing.

He shut his eyes against his anger and breathed in deep sighs. "Well, maybe Ryu didn't do anything wrong. And Chiann only told mom what had to be told." He rolled over and looked out his window. He watched the birds flying past, then he saw Ryu, with his baseball cap on, run towards the well house. "Ryu?" Dev sat up and thought.

He stood quickly and opened his window. Carefully he took the screen out of it's slot and placed it on the ground outside. Then slowly he looked at his door to make sure his parents weren't coming. He slipped out the window and ran towards the well house.

When he reached the wood door, he pulled it open to see inside. His little brother stood infront of the closed, sealed well. "Ryu?"

"She's calling, Dev. Can you hear her?" Ryu said in a distant voice.

"Ryu? I can't hear anything, you imagining it. C'mon, we aren't suppose to be in here. We were told that a long time ago, remember? We have to go back to mom and dad now. Let's go," Dev stepped forward to walk down the wooden stairs to reach his brother.

"She's calling me. She wants something. I'm going to find out what," Ryu climbed up onto the well and jumped in.

Dev watched as Ryu fell into the dark hole of the well. "No! Ryu!" he ran to the side of the well fully expecting to see his brother on the bottom looking up. He saw nothing but black. "Ryu!?"

"He's not there," Chiann said from behind him. Dev turned and looked at her.

"What do you mean?" he said panickly.

"He went to the other side," Chiann said as she walked towards him. When she reached the well she smiled at him and jumped in.

"No, Chiann, what are you doing?!" Dev watched as his little sister dissapeared. Thinking the worst he climbed onto the side of the well to jump in next.

"You can't leave without me!" a small voice said from behind him. He turned around and looked at Shido.

"No, Shido. You have to stay here and tell my mom and dad where we went. I'm just going to grab them and return," Dev said.

"No! No, Dev, I wanna come too!" Shido complained in his little six year old voice.

"Fine, c'mon," Dev gave up. Shido came running down the wood steps and climbed up the wall of the Bone Eaters Well to join Dev as they both jumped into the unknown.

Kagome stopped stirring the soup she was cooking and paused in her action. She had felt something. A jolt like a demon was close by. The same feeling she hadn't had in so long. She furrowed her brow and searched her miko power through the shrine grounds. InuYasha was close, in the bedroom. She felt Shippo playing in a tree, and Kirara on the ground below the tree. She could feel the spiritual power from Sango and Miroku coming from their house. The concentrated harder. Those were the only beings on the grounds. "Dev? Ryu? Chiann? Shido?" she questioned.

Turning off the stove she hurried into her bedroom to find InuYasha laying on the bed watching the television, "What's wrong?"

"InuYasha, I can't find the kids. All the kids," she said in a hury. He sat up and started past her towards Dev's room. She followed. They opened the door and looked into the small room. Two beds lined the walls, two dressers, and posters, but no childred. "He's grounded, he's suppose to be here!"

"C'mon Kagome," InuYasha went outside and turned his nose to the heavens. He sniffed and caught a slight scent of the children. "Oh gods."

"What?" Kagome asked.

"Well..." he started but was interupted.

"Kagome! InuYasha! I can't find Shido!" Sango called. She came running towards the two.

"I know, we can't find our kids either," Kagome told the frantic woman. The both held onto eachother and Kagome looked at InuYasha. "Well?"

"Well. Exactly. They went into the Well house," InuYasha said. He turned away from the two women and ran full force to the Bone Eaters Well. He opened the doors so fast that dust flew off of them, and he was slightly amazed that they didn't break off. He looked around in the slightly dark small shrine house. The children were no where to be seen, but he could smell all four of their destinct odors.

"Dev, you wouldn't go back..." he muttered as he saw the foot prints on the dusty ground, and the well wide open.

Dev groaned and opened his eyes. When he had jumped he had hit his head on the side of the well, leaving him to black out on the way down. "Stupid!" he yelled at himself. His voice echoed. He looked around, the sun shinning down into the black hole, illuminating enough for him to see that he was alone. His face set into a determined scowl, he started his way up the vined walls.

He reached the top and pulled himself over the rim. Grunting as he landed on the grass.

"Dev!" Ryu came running over to his brother. "Oh, Dev, where are we?" he asked. His eyes filled with tears as he knelt next to Dev and hugged the older boy.

Chiann stood staring, with her eyes all ready tearing over the brink of her lids. She gave a small shudder of grief. She didn't say anything though as she looked at her older brother.

Shido sat on the green grass and held his feet cross legged. He didn't look at any of the siblings. His gaze fixed on his hands holding the cross his feet made. "Dev, what happened?" Shido asked in a small voice.

"We're in Fuedal Japan... I'm back..." Dev looked around the area that surrounded the Bone Eaters Well many hundred of years in the past. He stood up, bringing his little brother up with him. His sister didn't say anything as he walked the few steps to her and pulled her into a hug too. The three held eachother. "Shido, come here," Dev held out his arm and Shido stood up and walked over to the warm embrace. "We'll just jump back into the well and get back home, ok?"

The all nodded. "Good, then we'll be home even before any of our parents know we're gone." He looked at the wood box that was the magical well. "I hope."
