Me: Ahahaha, ok, in every period we have silent reading for ten minutes and all I did was stare at a book deciding what I was gonna write next for my story, and well thought out for about 50 minutes, here it is!!

Yami: Wow, she is obsessive. She never thought that long about our stories..

Me: I HAVE ONCE!!

Yami: Once.

Yugi: AHH! Stop fighting!!

Inuyasha: Yes, just get on with the story.

Yami: Excuse me, I'm talking.

Inuyasha/Yugi: SHUT UP!!! (looks at each other)

Inuyasha: Yah know, I think this is a start to a beautiful friendship.

Yugi: Yep

"I think you're insane." Naomi said looking around. "That's impossible, it's IMPOSSIBLE to travel back in time. I think you're insane. I know you're insane."

"I'm not insane." Snapped the boy. "That's what Kagome said when she got here."

"Well—"Naomi was cut off when she heard a rattling in the bushes. Several men looking monsters popped out from off the trees and out of the bushes. They were big muscled tattoo men with long swords and wore eye patches.

Naomi gasped and started to back away, and backed into a tree. She saw the men closing in on her and she tried to run, but her pants got caught onto the bark.

Uh oh, Naomi thought. She looked down. She was wearing tight low rider jeans and a black tank top. I've got to get out, got to RUN!!

She untangled her clothes and ran for her life. She didn't even have time to move back.

"AHH!!" the boy ran towards them and raised his hand and cut his nails right through them. Naomi couldn't take her eyes off this gruesome sight. She watched as each of the men was slaughtered to tiny chunks.

Finally, out of eight, there were two of the men left. The boy was fighting one of them, but the man kept moving away.

Naomi looked around. Where's the other guy? She wondered. She turned around and gasped. The other man was standing right above her. He grinned and raised his sword. Naomi stood still, and then raised her hands and balled them into fists and punched the man in the stomach. It didn't hurt him, but it stopped him.

She started running, but the man was quick and he appeared in front of her. She turned around and stood on her hands and used her feet to choke the man. Unfortunately, it didn't work. He pushed her away and she landed on her feet. He leaned forward and slashed his sword onto Naomi's arm, causing a big gash. She screamed.

She fell onto her back and held onto her arm, watching the blood ooze. Every drip made her blink. Her eyes were wide and her skin was white.

The boy had finally killed the other man and looked over at Naomi. His mouth dropped open and he spotted the other man who was about to plunge the sword into her heart. The boy leapt forward and sunk his hand deep into the mans back and he pushed him aside.

All the men were gone. They were safe – for now.

The boy stood over Naomi. She held her arm looking up at the sky, her eyes blank.

"Help me," she murmured. "It hurts. Help me. It hurts." She kept chanting. The boy carried Naomi into his arms.

"She's in shock." He decided. And he ran as fast as he could towards a lake.

When they got there, the boy laid Naomi on her back on the edge of the lake. He ripped off part of his robe and dipped it in the water and gently cleaned the wound. She shook violently but remained silent. So did the boy.

When the blood appeared to be less, the boy cleaned the piece of material and wrapped it around Naomi's arm in a tight knot. A few minutes later, Naomi fell asleep while the boy was watching over her.

"Thank you." She whispered softly, half an hour later.

"What did you say?" said the boy.

"I said thank you, for saving my life, and helping me get better. You didn't have to, but you did. Thank you."

The boy smiled. Naomi smiled back. They got into a conversation.

"So you're from the future?" asked the boy.

Naomi nodded. "I guess it was hard for me to accept it before. But I guess it's true. I'm in the medieval times. It's so weird."

"What's your name?" asked the boy.

"I'm Naomi." She said, looking at the sky. She turned towards him. "What's your name?"

"I am Inuyasha." He replied.

"So this is YOUR forest?" Naomi asked in disbelief.

"Yes. Nobody comes here anymore. Not since Kagome died...." Inuyasha's voice weakened.

"What?" Naomi cried.

"We used to be good friends." He said, not blinking. "We were in this area, when a monster came and killed her. No one has dared to enter this forest since that day."

"That's so terrible." Said Naomi sincerely.

"Yes, I miss her so much. I always wonder what would have happened if she had never died. She died because of me. I know it." Inuyasha said. He tucked his head down and closed his eyes. "I want to get out of here. I want to be somewhere else."

Naomi sat up. "I think I know a way for you to go somewhere else."

Inuyasha turned his head towards her. "Really?"

Naomi nodded. "Yes! You can come to my time and my house and see Tokyo in the future!"

"Could you do that?" he cried. She nodded and started to stand up, surprised by the weight holding her down.

"Let's go." She said. Inuyasha obeyed and followed her. Naomi looked for the well and found it. "Come in here." She said, gesturing to the well.

"I remember Kagome and I used to jump through from this time to the future."

Naomi smiled. "Let's go." She said. She took Inuyasha's hand and they both jumped into the well.

When they landed, Inuyasha held onto Naomi tight.

"Close your eyes." He whispered. "I'll get us up."

Naomi obeyed and shut her eyes tight. It felt like a burst of wind, suddenly, her face hit hot sunshine. She snapped them open and they were back in the Higurashi temple.

"You've been here before?" she asked him.

Inuyasha nodded and they exited the temple.

Naomi found her car and they drove back to her house. Naomi took him in and went into her room. It was nice and tidy just like she had left it.

"My parents and my brother are at his hockey tournament and they'll be there for a month. The house is all to ourselves." She said, while getting a sweater on.

"Hockey?" questioned Inuyasha.

"It's a game. You play it on ice and try to get the puck into a net. Whoever gets it into the other teams net the most times wins. The puck is just some kind of a toy I guess." Explained Naomi.

Inuyasha nodded.

Naomi looked at him. "Now be prepared to live a life you'd never thought of living."
