It rained.
But still a figure was seen in the trees.
Lightning fast it ran on top of branches.
Soon it came to a stop.
It wore a sleeveless black shirt, midnight blue pant, and a strange marking on her arm.
On closer examination it was shaped like a blue, red and black dragon with golden eyes.
At her side was a black sheath with red stripes decorating its side's.
She held a silver hilted katana in her hands. On the blade of the katana was a yin and yang symbol.
Above that were words carved in. It read, "Born to be one with the elements, cursed by the ancient gods above. A savior from Hell itself..."
The girl known as Kagome stepped forward and spoke.
"What's your name?"
"My name is Sakura; I am of the elements and dogs, also the next heir to the western lands. What are you doing and your companions doing on my lands?"
"We are looking for the shikon shards as I am it its protector. I sense you have many"
"Correct I have 8 of them." and with a smirk dropped them into Kagome's hands.
"Arigato Sakura-san"
"May I travel with your group as long as you are on these lands?"
"Of course! The more the merrier!" Replied a smiling Kagome.
Inuyasha yelled, "WHAT!!??" as he finally realized what they said.
"I don't have a sister you liar! And you can't join us!"
"SIT BOY!!"
-BOOM-
And he went face first to the ground creating a small crater. Sakura smirked, "She seems to have power over you half breed."
When the rosary wore off he sat up and went to pout next to Miroku.
"I was orphaned by your father Inutaisho-sama. He kept me hidden for 18 years, training me in his spare time before I ran away and formed a group of fighters which I added to Sesshomaru's army."
"How come he didn't tell me or Sesshomaru then?"
"You were but a small baby then. And I visited Sesshomaru-sama just now."
Saying that a green see-through bubble formed around the small group.
Then they were teleported to Sesshomaru's western castle.
The bubble and a figure mysteriously appeared in his study. Then the bubble disappeared revealing the small group of Shard hunters.
"They are here my Lord" Sakura said bowing to a figure sitting at a table.
