Oh, and to InuYasha'sGurrl, there were guns just appearing in that era. Actually, later in the series a evil man or demon(not sure, these episodes haven't aired over here) shows up with a giant cannon on his shoulder. The guns back then might not have been the greatest, but.... I'm special and with my great author skills I make them good!!! BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!! (Still very hyper)

"We go to the east, near the sea."
Inuyasha blinked, starring at the Buddhist monk across the fire. The quarter moon was hanging peacefully in the sky, stars flickering here and there. The snow was up to about three inches and things were getting colder by the minute. The Inuyasha gang sat around a lively fire in a small hut.
"So, all the rumors have us going east, eh?" Sango said thoughtfully as she stroked Kirara's fur, receiving purrs.
Miroku nodded. "Many people say that people who live along the east seaside are the first to receive new inventions. Plus, one many on deaths door steps said to Lady Kaede before he passed on to the otherworld that most of the cold is coming in the direction. That he actually saw a demon."
Inuyasha smirked, "A demon? Then we better get going soon."
"At least can we sleep off the night?" Kagome asked, glancing around the group as everyone beside a certain hanyou nodded. She turned to Inuyasha, smiling weakly. "Come on Inuyasha, it's freezing outside and it's really late!"
Inuyasha huffed, quickly looking away from her long gaze. "Fine, fine." He grumbled, shifting his weight uneasily. "But first thing in the mornin-"
"Yeah, yeah." Miroku said lazily, stopping a yawn with the back of his hand. "First thing in the morning, but for now I suggest we all get a good rest."
Kagome nodded with a smile playing on her lips. "Good night everyone!" She chirped before snuggling down in her warm sleeping bag. Everyone eventually snuggled down as well, sleep taking them over.

The sun slowly arose in the sky, greeting the snow cover land. But, no matter how much the sun would shine the snow would not go away. The village was awake, but no one dared to go outside for fear of frostbite and other things like that.
The Inuyasha gang were also up, after Inuyasha forcing them to awake with the sun. After getting packed and getting into a bit warmer clothes from Kagome's era, they were ready to go.
"Bye Kaede!" Shippou waved as Kaede stood at the edge of her doorway. He smiled, but found it rather frustrating trying to move under all the stuff Kagome had put on him. It was itchy and it was getting hot. "Kagome......" The little kitsune whined. "Why do I have to wear all this?"
Kagome smiled lightly, holding on tightly on Inuyasha's shoulder as they bounced from on tree to another. "Because, I don't want you to get sick or have frostbite." She explained. squinting her eyes as the sun beamed in them.
"Humph. Why doesn't Inuyasha have to wear anything?"
Kagome sighed, giving into the sun and closing her eyes. "Because he wouldn't wear anything!"
"Damn right." Inuyasha huffed, stopping at the top of one tree. He glanced around for a moment, taking a sniff of the air before continuing on. Sango and Miroku were riding on Kirara just behind them.
Kagome sighed, resting her head on his back. At least his hair would block the sun from her eyes. 'How could a demon be involved with guns?' She thought, snuggling closer to the hanyou's back. 'I mean, would they even know what they are used for? Well, some demons are that smart. What if it's Naraku? Hmmmm.... nah, I don't think he would be interesting in that kind of thing.' She sighed lightly again.
"Yo Kagome! You awake back there?" Inuyasha yelled over his shoulder.
"Mmmhmm." Kagome replied quietly, too comfortable to move. It was rather nice riding on Inuyasha's back. It was warm and some how smoothing. You knew he was there to protect you and would never let you drop. It felt so nice.
)))))((((((
Meanwhile......
"Is Kagome still alive?" Miroku blinked, looking over Sango's shoulder.
Sango smirked, looking down at Inuyasha as well. "Yeah, she looks like she just feel asleep." She chuckled lightly.
Miroku grinned. Sango was distracted and his hand was moving dangerously close to her.
"Don't even try it, monk." Sango snapped suddenly, whipping her eyes at him.
Miroku blinked, jerking his hand back. "What? I wasn't doing anything!" He said as innocently as he could while batting his eye lashes at her.
Sango's eyes narrowed on him before she turned her back to him.

A few hours passed by the sun was threatening to set. Shippou let out a long sigh as he slumped against Inuyasha's back. "Are we there yet?"
"No." Inuyasha replied, jumping from another branch. He feet felt like icicles and it was starting to get even colder then before. He frowned, feeling Kagome shiver on his back and move closer for warmth.
"Are we there yet now?" Shippou whined.
"No, we're not!" Inuyasha growled.
.....Silence....
"How about now?"
"NO! NOW SHUT UP!" Inuyasha snapped, stopping on an unsteady branch.
Shippou gulped, sliding over closer to Kagome. "O-ok....."
"Inuyasha? Why are you stopping? We're almost there!" Sango yelled from above as she and Miroku flew passed them.
"Yay!" Shippou cheered. "Kagome! We're almost there!!" The little kitsune announced to the school girl, shacking her shoulder as he still cheered.
Kagome blinked, opening her eyes. "Oh..... did I fall asleep?" She yawned, rubbing her eyes.
"Yeah." Inuyasha yelled over his shoulder as he continued on following Sango and Miroku. "Anyway, we're almost there so get ready. I smell demon already."
Kagome nodded, tightening her grip lightly on his kimono. "All right."
The winds started to pick up, blowing bits of snow everywhere. It slapped Kagome in the face, making her wince. 'There's a demon, definitely. I can sense him, but it's not Naraku. We better be careful.' She thought as she covered her face with on arm.
"There's a village!" Miroku called threw the screaming winds. "We'll rest there! All right?"
"Yeah, yeah! I can smell them from here!" Inuyasha yelled back, slowly descending into the forest below. "Meet you there!"
"Aye!" Miroku smirked, saluting his hanyou friend as he disappeared into the thick trees. "Let's hurry Sango, my feet are numb!"
Sango nodded, shielding her eyes from the blast of winds. "I know! How are you doing Kirara?" To her response, Kirara gave a small roar of displeasure and unhappiness. Sango frowned, leaning closer to one of the fire-nekos' ears. "Don't worry, we are close." She whispered.
Kirara let out a long roar of approval as she started to descend, the village starting to show threw the thick of the wind and snow. She started to slow down and soon she landed on the outskirts of the village. Miroku slide off her back and looked around.
Sango slide off of Kirara's back as well and Kirara transformed back into her kitty form. With a small meow, the fire-neko jumped up into Sango's arms. "I wonder where the others are." She asked, looking around the white land.
Miroku shrugged. "They should have been here about the same time as we landed, maybe even sooner."
"Kirara, can you sniff them out--?" Sango stopped and gasped. Kirara felt cold and limp in her arms. "Kirara! What's wrong?!" She cried, holding the fire-neko closer to her body, hoping to give her some warmth.
Miroku rushed to her side. "What's wrong, Sango?" The monk asked, worried.
Sango looked up at him, her eyes glazed over with tears. "Kirara! She's very cold a limp! We get to get her some place warm and fast!" She exclaimed/
Miroku nodded, putting an hand on her shoulder and squeezing it lightly. "Yes, all right. Just calm down."
Sango nodded stiffly as she glanced down at Kirara. "Don't worry Kirara." She whispered as they started for the village.

"Where are we Inuyasha?" Kagome yelled over the winds as she looked around the dark forest. They landed in here a while ago, but they seemed to have gotten turned around. Which was odd, Inuyasha should have sniffed the way out.
"Don't need to yell, wench!" Inuyasha barked. "I'm right here, y'know!"
Kagome narrowed her eyes on the back of his head. If she wasn't still on his back she would have sat him to hell and back. Oh, the nerve of him sometimes! "Ok, where are we then kimo sabi?"
Inuyasha didn't respond at first. Actually, he didn't respond for a while as he walked down a path he thought that would lead them out of this hell hole. Finally, he said, "I don't know."
"You know now?!" Shippou cried. "No!! We're doomed!!" The kitsune cried even more as he buried his head in Kagome's arms. "Doomed to die!!"
"Will you shut up?!" Inuyasha growled, glancing over his shoulder only to see an icy cold glare from Kagome. He gulped and turned his attention back to where he was going. "The snow is really screwing everything up. Nothing has a scent because of it."
"Can't you smell Miroku or Sango from here?" Kagome asked. "They were close to us and the edge of the forest didn't seem far from where we were." She pointed out as Inuyasha lowered her and Shippou to the ground.
"I know. I should be able to pick up their scent from here but I'm getting nothing." Inuyasha said thoughtfully as he looked around the small clearing they were in. "Can you see Miroku's jewel shards?"
Kagome shook her head, placing a hand over her own jewel shards. "No, I can't. It's really weird... I think we've passed this tree before." She pointed to one gnarled looking tree that was bent to one side.
Shippou jumped out or Kagome's arm and started over to the tree. "Me too. But it's kinda creepy how it calls to you...." The little kitsune trailed off as he reached up to touch it.
Kagome's eyes widen. Something was wrong. Something was wrong with that tree and this whole forest. "Shippou, don't-" It was too late, the kitsune touched the tree and then, BAM! He seemed to vanish.
"Shippou!!" Kagome exclaimed, driving forward.
"Kagome! Don't!" Inuyasha yelled, grabbing both her arms before she too vanished into whatever realm Shippou disappeared too.
"B-but! Shippou! He's so young! And.... and......" Kagome just stopped, starring at the ground.
Inuyasha sighed lightly, releasing her once he was sure she had her balance. "Come on, let's go and find our way out of here." He said calmly.
Kagome took in a ragged breath, shadows covering her eyes. "I bet it was that demon! Whatever it is trying to separate us all!"
Inuyasha took one of her small hands into his, squeezing it lightly. "Yeah, that's why we have to stay together." He smiled lightly at her as she whirled to face him. "Come on, let's go."
Kagome smiled weakly. "All-" She stopped, her eyes widen. She let go of his hand and turned toward the tree. 'Something's there...... but what is it!' That something flickered again and a low voice entered her mind. Her eyes widen even more in surprise. She knew what she was looking at.
"Inuyasha, I sense a jewel shard!"
