Author's Note: This is supposed to take place a little after Kohaku is kidnapped by Naraku.

Kagome's family knows what happened because Inuyasha came back to tell them and they covered up the well again when he left. Anyway, before I give away too much of the story I'll shut up and let you read. Hope y'all like it. *Please* review and let me know what ya think of it.what ya like and don't like and all that stuff! It really helps me know what to write and what not to write. Tankies! Enjoy!
"Oye. Stupid Bakas and their groping hands." Jiang Li Takara muttered to herself, slamming the employee door of her workplace shut behind her and started her nightly walk back to her home, a small one-story dojo just down the block from an old shrine. A voice caught her attention as she walked past an old well house that was just on the edge of the shrine. Curious, she decided to take a look and found a small boy struggling to push the cover off of the well.
"Hey, Souta." Jiang said, recognizing the boy as one of her old classmates' younger brother. "Cat climb down the well?" The boy jumped, startled, then turned to her and nodded.
"Yeah. I can't get the lid off of here to get him out, either." Souta said with a pout. Jiang sighed then peeked outside the make sure nobody was around.
"Okay. I'll help, but you need to go home and back to bed once he's out, okay?" she said. Souta nodded. "You gotta promise you won't tell anybody about this, though. You promise?"
"Okay, but what am I not telling about?" he asked. As an answer Jiang closed her eyes and her features shifted so she had two furry dog-like ears atop her head and her canines were longer and sharp. "Woah. You're,"
"A hanyou." she finished, shoving the cover off the well, and jumped in. She dropped her bag on the bottom of the well, picked up the cat, jumped out, and handed the cat to Souta. "Don't forget, no telling. Keep your promise and I'll see about getting my sister and you together." she said with a wink, knowing the young boy liked her younger sister. Souta grinned and nodded then hurried off back to his family's house.
"Bye, Jiang. Thanks!" he called over his shoulder as he ran off. Jiang smiled and jumped back down the well to get her bag. She paused as she slipped the bag over her shoulder, realizing a scent she hadn't noticed before.
*"That smell.it smells like that jewel piece dad's friend has."* she thought to herself. She dug through the dirt where the scent was the strongest until she saw something glimmer, but when she reached to pick it up she felt as if she were in an earthquake and hit her head on the side of the well, blacking out.
~*~*~*
The next thing Jiang knew she woke up with a splitting headache. She looked up and was surprised to see sky. "Hmmm, guess the quake knocked the building down." she mused then, making sure she had the jewel piece and her bag, jumped out of the well, fully expecting to see fallen buildings. Instead she saw an open field with trees on all sides. "Oh, man. Where the hell am I?" she asked aloud as if someone could hear.
"You're at the Bone Eater's well. Where else, stupid?" a voice cracked. Jiang nearly fell off of the well she was so surprised.
She got an even bigger surprise when she saw who had spoken to her- a silver-haired man, "No, hanyou." she corrected herself, with furry white dog-like ears atop his head. "Sweet mother of Brigid.Lord Inuyasha." she breathed in Gaelic as her emerald eyes rolled back in her head and she slipped into unconsciousness.
~*~*~*
"What were you thinking bringing her here, Inuyasha? We don't even know who she is, where she is from, or what she was doing in your forest!" a man's voice scolded. Jiang's ears twitched at the faintly heard voice as she slowly opened her eyes.
"Give me a break, will ya?" another male's voice protested- the same voice from before, she remembered. "It's what Kagome would have done." he continued, softer.
"He's right, Miroku." a woman's voice chimed in. "Kagome would have brought he here to be sure she as well, just as Inuyasha has done." she added. Jiang moaned softly and slowly sat up.
"She's awake." the second voice, Inuyasha, said. A moment later all three of the voice's owners, a small kitsune, and a small boy entered the room.
"Awake, I see. How do you feel?" the young woman asked.
"Like I hit a stone wall at a full run." Jiang said, running her claws through her hair and fully exposing her dog-like ears.
"You look hanyou like Inuyasha, but you smell like a youkai like me. Why?" the kitsune asked bluntly.
"Shippo!" the woman scolded, looking at her apologetically. Jiang smiled.
"It's okay, I don't mind. I am hanyou, one of the last where I come from. My mother was a human- a miko- from Ireland and my father was an Inu-youkai from here in Japan. My parents met and mated while my mother was in Japan for schooling. My mother died giving birth to me, so Father raised me. When I was eighteen I was in an accident and lost a lot of blood. My father gave his blood to save me, and his life while trying to punish the drunk responsible for the accident because he didn't leave himself time to heal before he went after him." Jiang explained, lifting her shirt slightly to show the scars on her stomach.
"What's your name?" the boy asked.
"Geez, where are my manners?" she scolded herself, standing up and dusting herself off. "I'm Jiang Li Takara." she said with a slight bow of thanks for their kindness.
"I am Miroku." the man holding a staff said.
"I am Sango." the woman said, then laid a hand on the boy's shoulder. "This is my brother Kohaku, the kitsune is Shippo, and this is."
"I know who he is." Jiang interrupted then turned to Inuyasha with a slight bow. "There isn't a hanyou or youkai where I'm from who doesn't know who Lord Inuyasha is." Inuyasha clinked in confusion. Only Myoga called him 'Lord Inuyasha'.
"Where exactly are you from?" Miroku asked, looking at her skeptically.
"Well, judging from the looks of thing, and if I'm right in assuming that this is Japan's feudal era, I'd say about 500 years in the future." she said rather calmly.
"She's from Kagome's time!" Shippo exclaimed. Jiang blinked, surprised.
"You know Kag-? You're the reason she smells like hanyou!" she exclaimed, finally realizing why Kagome was always disappearing. Inuyasha winced and left the room- hut, not room, she realized. "Did I say something wrong?"
"Kagome has been dead for three months. She was killed saving my brother from Naraku." Sango said, glancing down at the ground. Jiang dropped to the ground in a squat, stunned.
"Kaggie's.dead?" she breathed. "Aw, me an' my big mouth. No wonder he left. I better go apologize." she said, standing up, then went after the hanyou.
