Author's note-Well, chapter four is now out. Now, just to let all Everworld
fans know ahead of time, we kinda used the whole crossing-dimensions-while-
asleep thing from Everworld. . .we admit, we don't own it, that was K. A.
Applegate's idea. Oh, and here's your random fact of the day: You know how
A/N stands for 'author's note'? Well, J/N stands for Jessica's note (me),
K/N stands for Kisike's note, A/N now stands for Amanda's note, and R/N
stands for Raylin's note. Not hard, ne? Oh, and yes, we do joke about the
whole wall thing in real life. . .you'll understand later. . .as for the
disclaimer, we don't own Inuyasha or Everworld, or most of the movies and
series mentioned in this fanfic. Well, I've got to go now since Kisike,
Amanda, Raylin, and I are off to fight a demon that has Shikon shard. . .if
we get this shard, we'll be one step closer to owning Inuyasha! ^ ^
*in the inn*
"Are you sure that Kisike and Raylin are going to be okay?" Shippou asked Amanda.
"Yeah. They've run into random objects a million times, can't you tell?" She asked. Shippou sweatdropped.
" More or less. . ." He said, looking at Raylin who was talking with Miroku. Bridget was sitting just outside the door, looking through the treetops to the stars. Kisike suddenly appeared beside Raylin.
"Are we there yet.." She asked in a spooky Dracula voice that made Raylin jump. Raylin growled and hit the neko-jin over the head.
" NO! GO AWAY!"
"WHY?!"
"BECAUSE I SAID SO!"
"WHAT DOES THAT MATTER?!"
"A LOT IF I'M THE INTELLIGENT ONE HERE!!" Raylin yelled, then blinked as Miroku stepped between them.
"Now, now ladies, you mustn't fight, there's enough Miroku-kun to go around." He said, smiling at Kisike, who was now on the other side of the room, hiding behind Inuyasha. Inuyasha sweatdropped and tried to bat her away.
"Don't expect me to share you!" Raylin yelled. Everyone stared at her. Miroku blinked at her, then took her hands in his and leaned forwards.
"Then. . .you will bear my child..?" He asked eagerly.
". . .I thought you were a monk." Raylin asked skeptically.
"That I am, Lady Raylin." Miroku nodded.
"Oh, really? THEN GET YOUR HAND OFF MY ASS!!" Raylin screamed, punching Miroku so hard he smashed into the far wall. Kisike sweatdropped and sidled into the opposite side of the room's corner by a window. Miroku twitched and slid down the wall, settling next to Amanda. He sat up immediately and grasped her hand.
"Will you bear my child??" He asked. Amanda's left eye twitched and she hurled him across the room.
"NO!!" She yelled, glaring as the monk smashed into the wall next to Kisike.
"STOP FOLLOWING ME!" She shouted, running to the other side of the room again and hiding behind Inuyasha. Inuyasha sweatdropped again. Amanda growled and kicked Kisike away.
"STAY AWAY!" She hollered. Kisike blinked. Inuyasha blinked.
"..Okieokie. . ." Kisike sighed, curling up in a corner. Shippou hopped on her shoulder and pulled at her cheek. Kisike - -'d and sweatdropped. Shippou grinned and kept pulling at her face. Kisike sighed, picked the kitsune up and set him down on the floor, and pressed her face to her forearms, which were resting on her knees.
"Oh, no. She's sulking." Raylin said, helping Miroku up.
" I am not." Kisike mumbled. Bridget scooted inside the doorway and looked around. "..I'm hungry." Kisike said.
"You're ALWAYS hungry." Raylin said.
"I am not!"
"I'm hungry too!" Shippou said.
"See? The squirrel is hungry too!" Kisike said, pointing to Shippou.
"-.- I'm a fox."
". . .We know you are. Now be quiet and shush."
"Do I get food if I do?"
". . .Yes."
"Yay!"
". . .I hereby christen both of you idiots." Raylin said.
"I hereby christen you stupid! Stop trying to sound like Christopher." Kisike said. She punched the wall, her hand going through the rice paper. "Stupid wall. . ."
Miroku, Shippou, and Inuyasha stared at her. Finally, Shippou asked, "Why do you keep calling the wall 'Christopher'?"
"It's called boredom." Raylin said. "We were sitting around one day and decided to name inanimate objects after Everworld characters. Everworld is a book series we read. We named the walls Christopher, the floor Jalil, the door Senna, the doorframe David, the doorknob Galahad's sword, and the ceiling April." She thought for a moment. "Oh yeah, and we named the nearest gun Keith, but we don't know where the nearest gun is, and I'm having doubts that you even know what a gun is, so I have absolutely no idea why I just told you that."
"So there is no purpose to this odd action?" Miroku asked.
"Feh. Sounds like a waste of time to me." Inuyasha said.
"Well, there was nothing else to do. There's not much you can do in our world." Kisike said.
"There's homework. That you never do." Raylin said.
Kisike sweatdropped. "I do homework!"
"Rarely."
Kisike sighed. "I wish we could stay in this world."
"We may be doing just that." Bridget said quietly as she stood up.
Everyone was silent for a moment. Inuyasha finally broke the silence by asking, "What's Everworld?"
"Everworld is a place gods, goddesses, unicorns, elves, fairies, druids, witches, wizards, and other magical creatures are." Kisike said.
"Any demons?" Inuyasha asked.
"Uh. . .not that we know of. . .well, there were the demons created by Eshu in book. . .seven, I think, but I think those were only illusions."
"What about monks?" Miroku asked.
"Uh. . .we only know of the Egyptian priests. . ."
"Well that place just doesn't seem very fun at all." Inuyasha said.
"What's an Egyptian?" Shippou asked.
"Can we eat now?" Kisike complained.
"Yes. We can." Amanda said.
They ate supper, which ended up being pretty much uneventful, and went to bed afterwards.
*in the other world*
"Set!" Mr. Terry (or Terry-Sensi as Bridget called him, since he was her teacher) yelled. Automatically, Bridget did a front snap kick. Then there was something like a CNN breaking news kinda thing. CNN breaking news: You are in Tae Kwon Do class. CNN breaking news: You're with a dog demon, a fox demon, a perverted monk, and your friends.
'Okay, this is weird. It's just like Everworld. I need to talk to somebody, like 'Sike or Raylin or Amanda.' Bridget thought.
"Net. . .Tossage. . .Yossage. . .Illega. . .Yodo. . .Ihop. . .Yoll!" (J/N: These are Korean numbers. . .I can't spell them right. So sue me. . . -.-) Terry-Sensi called. Bridget finished the last seven snap kicks in unison with the class. She raised her hand. "Yes?" Terry-Sensi asked.
"May I go to the restroom?" Bridget asked.
"Yes you may." Terry-Sensi said, bowing her out. Bridget bowed and left the room. She didn't go to the restroom, however. Instead she went downstairs and dialed Kisike's cell phone number on a payphone.
***
". . .Well, this is odd." Kisike said, looking down at her little sister, Audrey. She was in the airport with her family, on the way to Florida for Christmas break. The one-year-old looked up and giggled. "Do not laugh! This is not a happy place!" Kisike said.
Audrey merely blinked up at her. Kisike seemed to get a breaking news thingy. ". . .Well, this is unfortunate." She said. She thought for a moment. "Well, why do I keep saying well at the beginning of all of my sentences now?"
"Kisike, stop talking to yourself." Kisike's mom said to her.
"Well, I could, but then people wouldn't stare at me like the insane, homicidal maniac that I am." Kisike said.
"What?!"
"Nothin." Kisike said, grinning mysteriously. Her cell phone suddenly rang. She picked it up. "Hello?"
"Kisike, it's not a dream, is it?! We really are in Japan with a bunch of demons and other people, aren't we?!" Bridget asked.
"Yeah. . .Everworld thing. . ." Kisike said. She grinned. "Instant Transmission! Gotta love it!" she said, mimicking Goku.
". . . 'Sike, this is serious. Are we sure this is like the Everworld thing?"
"Nope. But if it's broken, I will go ask Mo'Steel for some duct tape."
". . ."
"Yes. Dot, dot, dot. Now, I have to go, but I'll talk to you on MSN when I get the chance. Well, bye! And write more!"
"I will. Bye." Bridget sighed. Kisike turned the phone off and put it away.
***
Amanda lounged on the couch, watching the second Cooler movie that she had borrowed from Bridget. She seemed to get a CNN update from the self that must be in that other world. She looked around. ". . .This is not good." She said. She got up, stopped the tape, and got a soda. Then she got on the phone and dialed Bridget's number.
"Hello? Is Bridget there?" she asked.
"HI!" a familiar voice said. It was Bridget's ten-year-old little sister, Elena.
Amanda grinned. "Hey Elena. How's my little angel doing?" she asked.
"Good." Elena said, happy that she was being called an angel by somebody and knowing that it was going to drive Bridget insane later on.
"That's good. Is Bridget there?" Amanda asked.
"No. She's at Tae Kwon Do class." Elena said.
"Oh. Well could you tell her I called?" Amanda asked.
"Okay. Bye."
"Bye, little angel."
Amanda hung up the phone, sighed, turned the movie back on, and sat on the couch, barely paying attention to the movie and mostly her thoughts.
***
Raylin argued with her sister and fell asleep later. : P
*back in Inuyasha's world*
Sesshoumaru stood outside the inn, watching it. "So," he said, "those annoying humans were demons after all." He said quietly.
"They are demons. And they will mess with your plan to retake the Tetsiagga." Said a familiar voice behind him.
"You again." Sesshoumaru said, turning around to see a man wrapped in a baboon skin. "What do you know about these new demons?"
"I know that they weren't always demons. They were mistakes. Freaks. They were able to cross a line of the dimension star." Naraku said.
"The what. . .? What is the dimension star? I have heard of such a thing, yet do not know what it is."
"Millions of years ago, a council of gods and goddesses created the universe. But it was hectic, all chaos. None of the parts of the universe went along with another. So they were quickly separated. Inside the star is the original universe, the one that they came from. Outside of the star are ten dimensions and five in the points, and this one is one of them. The one they came from is in the center."
One night every ten thousand years, the universes would collide, and a select few would be able to cross the borders and see beyond the box that held them firmly inside their dimension. Those four were some of the select few, though they did not know about it. Demons on the other hand, do not have to be in select few. That is why you were in the dimension collision and able to see beyond this one into the other one." Naraku explained.
"I don't see why I should care. I only want to kill Inuyasha and take the Tetsiagga. I don't care about those other demons, just so long as they don't get in my way."
"They don't seem like much, do they? But you know they're going to get in the way. They've already befriended Inuyasha, the fox demon, and the monk. You must kill the four of them, if you wish to succeed." Naraku said.
Sesshoumaru was quiet for a time, staring at the inn. "Tell me. Are they a threat to me, or to you? I am not stupid, Naraku." He said after a while.
"Of course you are not. They are a threat to the both of us." Naraku said.
Sesshoumaru was quiet again, until he finally turned around and walked back into the forest. "Not tonight." He muttered.
"What?! Where are you going?!" Naraku demanded.
"I wish to observe these 'threats' first." Sesshoumaru replied. Without another word, he disappeared into the forest.
*In the morning; forest*
"So where are we going, exactly?" Raylin asked.
"To see the old hag to find out how to get rid of you guys." Inuyasha said.
Raylin raised and eyebrow. ". . .The what?"
"He means Kaede." Shippou said. "She's Kikyo's sister."
"Kiky-who?" Kisike asked. Amanda elbowed her sharply in the ribs to shut her up, seeing Inuyasha look away. "Ouch!" Kisike whined.
"You okay?" Amanda asked.
"Feh. I wonder if we could just send you guys through the well to get rid of you." Inuyasha said, ignoring the question.
"But Inuyasha, that would just send them back to. . .well, you know where it would send them back to, but I don't think they're from there." Miroku said.
"I don't care. Just so long as they're away from us." Inuyasha said. He glanced over at Bridget.
Bridget was quietly looking at some rocks she had gotten at the gift shop at the Okeefenokee Swamp. One of the stones was purple and crystal like. "Hey, you!" Inuyasha said. Bridget looked up and Inuyasha walked over to her. "Lemme see that. It looks like a jewel shard." Inuyasha said, picking the purple stone out of her hand.
"Uh. . .that's amethyst. . ." Bridget said slowly. Inuyasha studied the stone for a moment.
"Feh. You're right. Whatever 'amethyst' is." He said, tossing it away.
"Hey! My grandma got me these stones! Including that one!" Bridget yelled, catching the stone.
"Maybe so, but it's worthless."
Kisike was oddly quiet, humming something and no doubt planning something evil. She suddenly walked over to Inuyasha and started braiding his hair. Inuyasha clenched his fists and glared over at Kisike. "Can I braid your hair?" Kisike asked casually as she continued to braid his hair. Miroku and Shippou snickered. Bridget, Amanda, and Raylin on the other hand, just sighed and shook their heads.
". . .Do you mind?!" Inuyasha yelled.
"Actually, I think the question is if YOU mind. See, I'M the one that's braiding YOUR hair, not you." Kisike said.
Inuyasha's eye twitched. ". . .What?"
"Kisike, stop trying to use reverse psychology on him." Amanda sighed.
"I wasn't meaning to use reverse psychology! I was merely trying to confuse him! Meheh!" Kisike shot back.
". . .Well stop trying to confuse him. And stop picking on him, he doesn't like it!"
"And just how would you know?!" Kisike said.
Miroku chuckled. "Inuyasha, I believe Lady Amanda is quite fond of you." He said.
Amanda blushed. "I am not!" she shot back.
Inuyasha raised an eyebrow, then glared. "Well good. Don't like me." he said.
Amanda looked surprised. 'Did I offend him or something. . .?' she wondered. Shippou tugged on her pants leg. Amanda looked down.
"Don't worry. He's just been having a lot of bad luck lately." Shippou assured her.
"You got that right." Inuyasha muttered bitterly.
Everybody was silent for the rest of the way. They finally came to a village.
"I'm hungry." Kisike whined.
"I'll say it again. You're always hungry." Raylin sighed.
"Wait here." Inuyasha said. He walked up to a building and knocked.
After a few moments the door finally opened and the girls could see an old woman with an eye patch at the door. Inuyasha and the woman spoke for a moment, then Inuyasha went inside and the door shut.
***
"I don't know where they came from, but I don't think they're from the future. At least, not the future of this world." Inuyasha said.
"Ye think so, eh?" Kaede said. She went to the door and opened it a crack to take another look at the girls, who were now playing 'whack Miroku with his staff thingy while Shippou tried to stop them'. "I believe ye are right. Ten thousand years have passed. A dimension collision has happened again."
". . .A what?" Inuyasha asked.
Kaede explained what a dimension collision was. When the dimensions of the dimension star, of course, collided with one another. "Ye were also right to believe that that red-haired demon was a fairy demon. At least, part fairy demon." She finished.
"She has the light." Inuyasha said.
There was silence for a while. "Inuyasha. I hope ye don't think she's another reincarnation of Kikyo." Kaede said quietly.
Inuyasha clenched his fists and turned away, looking down at the ground and swallowing hard. "Of course she's not. She doesn't have Kikyo's scent." He said in a strained voice. "I think Kagome was the only reincarnation of Kikyo."
"It's not ye fault, Inuyasha." Kaede said.
"But it is! If only I was more careful, Kagome would have been okay! But. . .now she's dead. . ." Inuyasha said loudly, shutting his eyes tightly and trying not to let any tears appear. "I couldn't save her." He whispered.
"Ye are not her killer. Sesshoumaru is."
Inuyasha glared. "Sesshoumaru. . .I will kill him. . ." he growled.
"Back to the subject of these four girls, I think ye should know that there is a possibility for them to get back. A demon lured them here, but I do not know which one. They cross through the demon and into a copy of themselves in their world while they sleep. Only when that demon is killed, can they leave. But I do not know who that demon is, and when the demon is killed, they will have to choose between their world.and this one." Kaede said.
Inuyasha looked up, taking a deep breath, and looked over at Kaede. "They will choose their world, won't they? They aren't just going to stay here. They can't." he said.
"I am not the one who can answer that. If ye have observed them, ye will know that they are very different from each other. They will want different things, make different choices. They may not like their world and choose this one over that one. Or, they may long for home and choose their world."
". . .Thanks a lot."
"Ye must be careful! If they have a demon that could lure across dimensions coming after them, then that same powerful demon could attack at any time. More powerful than ye."
Inuyasha looked outside. He saw that the girls had stopped their little game and where standing off to the side. Miroku was nursing the bumps on his head, Amanda and Raylin were arguing (more than likely over Gohan -.-), and Shippou watched as Kisike put Bridget's hair in pigtails.
He sighed. "If they choose to stay in this world, they don't know what they're getting into." He said in a soft voice.
With that said, he went outside and walked over to them. He was silent for a moment. Everybody looked over at him expectantly. ". . .Well?" Bridget asked finally.
Inuyasha sighed. "Lets go get some lunch."
"Yay! Lunch time!" Kisike cheered, finishing putting Bridget's hair up.
". . .Why are you messing with everyone's hair today?" Raylin questioned.
"Oh, come on Raylin. I think it's kinda cute." Amanda said, poking one of Bridget's pigtails. Bridget sweatdropped.
"Why me. . .?" she sighed.
"Would fish be okay for lunch?" Inuyasha asked.
Kisike ran around in circles. "Ewwie! Fishies!" she cried.
Everybody sweatdropped. "Well /I/ like fish." Bridget said. Next to oriental food, seafood was some of her favorite food.
"And /I/ have a squeeglyspooch."
". . ."
"Chicken?" Inuyasha asked.
Kisike stopped. "So long as it isn't from McDonalds! McDonalds yucky!"
Inuyasha sweatdropped. "McWhat?" he demanded.
"McDonalds! McDonalds ish yucky!" Kisike said. There was sudden movement in the trees. Inuyasha looked over at it. Everybody else followed. "Oh, don't worry. It was probably just a squirrel or something." Kisike said. She suddenly burst our laughing. "Ice Age!" She picked up an acorn and tossed it into the forest.
"Ow!" a little voice yelled. A little boy of about nine walked out clutching a bump on his head.
"Who are you?" Amanda asked.
"I'm Akio." The little boy said. "My village was attacked by a demon this morning."
"What?!" Inuyasha said. He looked over at Miroku and Shippou. Miroku nodded.
"Aw. . .but what about lunch?!" Shippou whined.
"Later Shippou, this village needs some help." Miroku said. "Lead the way." He said to the boy.
The boy nodded and began running into the forest. Miroku began following but Inuyasha looked over at the girls, then Shippou. "Shippou," he said, "Watch over them. Make sure they don't leave the village."
"Okay. . ." Shippou said.
With that, Inuyasha ran off. "Aw! We wanna go!" Kisike said.
"Sorry, but Inuyasha doesn't want you all to get hurt like Kagome did."
Raylin blinked. "Tell us. Who was Kagome? And what happened to her?"
Shippou sighed. "Well, it's like this. . ."
Author's note: *answering machine comes on* Hey, we're busy beating the crap out of Bob, the typo demon at the moment to get our second Shikon shard. . .an easy win. . .so we can't answer the phone at the moment. . .hang on. *in the back ground* 'Sike, give that to me!

*in the inn*
"Are you sure that Kisike and Raylin are going to be okay?" Shippou asked Amanda.
"Yeah. They've run into random objects a million times, can't you tell?" She asked. Shippou sweatdropped.
" More or less. . ." He said, looking at Raylin who was talking with Miroku. Bridget was sitting just outside the door, looking through the treetops to the stars. Kisike suddenly appeared beside Raylin.

Kisike sighed, picked the kitsune up and set him down on the floor, and pressed her face to her forearms, which were resting on her knees.
"Oh, no. She's sulking." Raylin said, helping Miroku up.

"Yay!"

"I hereby christen you stupid! Stop trying to sound like Christopher." Kisike said. She punched the wall, her hand going through the rice paper. "Stupid wall. . ."
Miroku, Shippou, and Inuyasha stared at her. Finally, Shippou asked, "Why do you keep calling the wall 'Christopher'?"
"It's called boredom." Raylin said. "We were sitting around one day and decided to name inanimate objects after Everworld characters. Everworld is a book series we read. We named the walls Christopher, the floor Jalil, the door Senna, the doorframe David, the doorknob Galahad's sword, and the ceiling April." She thought for a moment. "Oh yeah, and we named the nearest gun Keith, but we don't know where the nearest gun is, and I'm having doubts that you even know what a gun is, so I have absolutely no idea why I just told you that."

Sesshoumaru stood outside the inn, watching it. "So," he said, "those annoying humans were demons after all." He said quietly.
"They are demons. And they will mess with your plan to retake the Tetsiagga." Said a familiar voice behind him.
"You again." Sesshoumaru said, turning around to see a man wrapped in a baboon skin. "What do you know about these new demons?"
"I know that they weren't always demons. They were mistakes. Freaks. They were able to cross a line of the dimension star." Naraku said.
"The what. . .? What is the dimension star? I have heard of such a thing, yet do not know what it is."
"Millions of years ago, a council of gods and goddesses created the universe. But it was hectic, all chaos. None of the parts of the universe went along with another. So they were quickly separated. Inside the star is the original universe, the one that they came from. Outside of the star are ten dimensions and five in the points, and this one is one of them. The one they came from is in the center."
One night every ten thousand years, the universes would collide, and a select few would be able to cross the borders and see beyond the box that held them firmly inside their dimension. Those four were some of the select few, though they did not know about it. Demons on the other hand, do not have to be in select few. That is why you were in the dimension collision and able to see beyond this one into the other one." Naraku explained.
"I don't see why I should care. I only want to kill Inuyasha and take the Tetsiagga. I don't care about those other demons, just so long as they don't get in my way."
"They don't seem like much, do they? But you know they're going to get in the way. They've already befriended Inuyasha, the fox demon, and the monk. You must kill the four of them, if you wish to succeed." Naraku said.
Sesshoumaru was quiet for a time, staring at the inn. "Tell me. Are they a threat to me, or to you? I am not stupid, Naraku." He said after a while.
"Of course you are not. They are a threat to the both of us." Naraku said.
Sesshoumaru was quiet again, until he finally turned around and walked back into the forest. "Not tonight." He muttered.
"What?! Where are you going?!" Naraku demanded.
"I wish to observe these 'threats' first." Sesshoumaru replied. Without another word, he disappeared into the forest.
*In the morning; forest*
"So where are we going, exactly?" Raylin asked.
"To see the old hag to find out how to get rid of you guys." Inuyasha said.
Raylin raised and eyebrow. ". . .The what?"
"He means Kaede." Shippou said. "She's Kikyo's sister."
"Kiky-who?" Kisike asked. Amanda elbowed her sharply in the ribs to shut her up, seeing Inuyasha look away. "Ouch!" Kisike whined.
"You okay?" Amanda asked.
"Feh. I wonder if we could just send you guys through the well to get rid of you." Inuyasha said, ignoring the question.
"But Inuyasha, that would just send them back to. . .well, you know where it would send them back to, but I don't think they're from there." Miroku said.
"I don't care. Just so long as they're away from us." Inuyasha said. He glanced over at Bridget.
Bridget was quietly looking at some rocks she had gotten at the gift shop at the Okeefenokee Swamp. One of the stones was purple and crystal like. "Hey, you!" Inuyasha said. Bridget looked up and Inuyasha walked over to her. "Lemme see that. It looks like a jewel shard." Inuyasha said, picking the purple stone out of her hand.
"Uh. . .that's amethyst. . ." Bridget said slowly. Inuyasha studied the stone for a moment.
"Feh. You're right. Whatever 'amethyst' is." He said, tossing it away.
"Hey! My grandma got me these stones! Including that one!" Bridget yelled, catching the stone.
"Maybe so, but it's worthless."
Kisike was oddly quiet, humming something and no doubt planning something evil. She suddenly walked over to Inuyasha and started braiding his hair. Inuyasha clenched his fists and glared over at Kisike. "Can I braid your hair?" Kisike asked casually as she continued to braid his hair. Miroku and Shippou snickered. Bridget, Amanda, and Raylin on the other hand, just sighed and shook their heads.
". . .Do you mind?!" Inuyasha yelled.
"Actually, I think the question is if YOU mind. See, I'M the one that's braiding YOUR hair, not you." Kisike said.
Inuyasha's eye twitched. ". . .What?"
"Kisike, stop trying to use reverse psychology on him." Amanda sighed.
"I wasn't meaning to use reverse psychology! I was merely trying to confuse him! Meheh!" Kisike shot back.
". . .Well stop trying to confuse him. And stop picking on him, he doesn't like it!"
"And just how would you know?!" Kisike said.
Miroku chuckled. "Inuyasha, I believe Lady Amanda is quite fond of you." He said.
Amanda blushed. "I am not!" she shot back.
Inuyasha raised an eyebrow, then glared. "Well good. Don't like me." he said.
Amanda looked surprised. 'Did I offend him or something. . .?' she wondered. Shippou tugged on her pants leg. Amanda looked down.
"Don't worry. He's just been having a lot of bad luck lately." Shippou assured her.
"You got that right." Inuyasha muttered bitterly.
Everybody was silent for the rest of the way. They finally came to a village.
"I'm hungry." Kisike whined.
"I'll say it again. You're always hungry." Raylin sighed.
"Wait here." Inuyasha said. He walked up to a building and knocked.
After a few moments the door finally opened and the girls could see an old woman with an eye patch at the door. Inuyasha and the woman spoke for a moment, then Inuyasha went inside and the door shut.

"I don't know where they came from, but I don't think they're from the future. At least, not the future of this world." Inuyasha said.
"Ye think so, eh?" Kaede said. She went to the door and opened it a crack to take another look at the girls, who were now playing 'whack Miroku with his staff thingy while Shippou tried to stop them'. "I believe ye are right. Ten thousand years have passed. A dimension collision has happened again."
". . .A what?" Inuyasha asked.
Kaede explained what a dimension collision was. When the dimensions of the dimension star, of course, collided with one another. "Ye were also right to believe that that red-haired demon was a fairy demon. At least, part fairy demon." She finished.
"She has the light." Inuyasha said.
There was silence for a while. "Inuyasha. I hope ye don't think she's another reincarnation of Kikyo." Kaede said quietly.
Inuyasha clenched his fists and turned away, looking down at the ground and swallowing hard. "Of course she's not. She doesn't have Kikyo's scent." He said in a strained voice. "I think Kagome was the only reincarnation of Kikyo."
"It's not ye fault, Inuyasha." Kaede said.
"But it is! If only I was more careful, Kagome would have been okay! But. . .now she's dead. . ." Inuyasha said loudly, shutting his eyes tightly and trying not to let any tears appear. "I couldn't save her." He whispered.
"Ye are not her killer. Sesshoumaru is."
Inuyasha glared. "Sesshoumaru. . .I will kill him. . ." he growled.
"Back to the subject of these four girls, I think ye should know that there is a possibility for them to get back. A demon lured them here, but I do not know which one. They cross through the demon and into a copy of themselves in their world while they sleep. Only when that demon is killed, can they leave. But I do not know who that demon is, and when the demon is killed, they will have to choose between their world.and this one." Kaede said.
Inuyasha looked up, taking a deep breath, and looked over at Kaede. "They will choose their world, won't they? They aren't just going to stay here. They can't." he said.
"I am not the one who can answer that. If ye have observed them, ye will know that they are very different from each other. They will want different things, make different choices. They may not like their world and choose this one over that one. Or, they may long for home and choose their world."
". . .Thanks a lot."
"Ye must be careful! If they have a demon that could lure across dimensions coming after them, then that same powerful demon could attack at any time. More powerful than ye."
Inuyasha looked outside. He saw that the girls had stopped their little game and where standing off to the side. Miroku was nursing the bumps on his head, Amanda and Raylin were arguing (more than likely over Gohan -.-), and Shippou watched as Kisike put Bridget's hair in pigtails.
He sighed. "If they choose to stay in this world, they don't know what they're getting into." He said in a soft voice.
With that said, he went outside and walked over to them. He was silent for a moment. Everybody looked over at him expectantly. ". . .Well?" Bridget asked finally.
Inuyasha sighed. "Lets go get some lunch."
"Yay! Lunch time!" Kisike cheered, finishing putting Bridget's hair up.
". . .Why are you messing with everyone's hair today?" Raylin questioned.
"Oh, come on Raylin. I think it's kinda cute." Amanda said, poking one of Bridget's pigtails. Bridget sweatdropped.
"Why me. . .?" she sighed.
"Would fish be okay for lunch?" Inuyasha asked.
Kisike ran around in circles. "Ewwie! Fishies!" she cried.
Everybody sweatdropped. "Well /I/ like fish." Bridget said. Next to oriental food, seafood was some of her favorite food.
"And /I/ have a squeeglyspooch."
". . ."
"Chicken?" Inuyasha asked.
Kisike stopped. "So long as it isn't from McDonalds! McDonalds yucky!"
Inuyasha sweatdropped. "McWhat?" he demanded.
"McDonalds! McDonalds ish yucky!" Kisike said. There was sudden movement in the trees. Inuyasha looked over at it. Everybody else followed. "Oh, don't worry. It was probably just a squirrel or something." Kisike said. She suddenly burst our laughing. "Ice Age!" She picked up an acorn and tossed it into the forest.
"Ow!" a little voice yelled. A little boy of about nine walked out clutching a bump on his head.
"Who are you?" Amanda asked.
"I'm Akio." The little boy said. "My village was attacked by a demon this morning."
"What?!" Inuyasha said. He looked over at Miroku and Shippou. Miroku nodded.
"Aw. . .but what about lunch?!" Shippou whined.
"Later Shippou, this village needs some help." Miroku said. "Lead the way." He said to the boy.
The boy nodded and began running into the forest. Miroku began following but Inuyasha looked over at the girls, then Shippou. "Shippou," he said, "Watch over them. Make sure they don't leave the village."
"Okay. . ." Shippou said.
With that, Inuyasha ran off. "Aw! We wanna go!" Kisike said.
"Sorry, but Inuyasha doesn't want you all to get hurt like Kagome did."
Raylin blinked. "Tell us. Who was Kagome? And what happened to her?"
Shippou sighed. "Well, it's like this. . ."
