Inuyasha jumped out of the well in Kagome's era. He hesitated before walking up to the front door. He knocked.

"Oh hello Inuyasha," Mrs. Higurashi said when she opened the door. "I suppose you're here to see Kagome?" Inuyasha nodded. "She's at school right now but your welcome to stay here and wait. Ill fix you some Ramon."

"Alright."

They walked inside. Mrs. Higurashi walked to the kitchen to start the Ramon. She saw Inuyasha walk to the living room.

"I wouldn't go in there," she said.

"Why not?"

"Souta's in there. He has a bad cold. You don't want to catch it."

"I never get sick." He walked into the living room. Souta looked away from the television.

"Hi Inuyasha." He ran up and hugged Inuyasha. "Wanna play some video games?"

Inuyasha walked over and sat next to Souta on the couch while Souta showed Inuyasha how to use the controller.

The last bell rang. Kagome caught up with Ashlyn. She had decided to invite her over after all.

"Hi," Kagome said.

"Hi."

"Wanna come over a while. We can work on that math homework together."

"Alright I guess. Just let me go pick up my school uniform."

"Alright."

Kagome waited outside the office while Ashlyn picked up her uniform and then outside the restroom while she tried it on. She came out wearing it.

"How do I look?"

"Like everyone else."

"That's the look I was going for."

They giggled and began walking to Kagome's house, Ashlyn still in her uniform. They passed the god tree and walked to the front door.

"Are you hungry?" Kagome asked.

"A little."

They walked inside and into the kitchen. At the table were Souta and Inuyasha eating Ramon. Inuyasha was not wearing a hat.

Ashlyn looked directly at Inuyasha's ears. Everybody froze.

"Something smells good," she said. "What is it?"

"Ramon," Mrs. Higurashi said as calmly as she could.

Kagome was confused. She knew Ashlyn had seen his ears, but she acted like seeing a dog demon eating Ramon at someone's kitchen table was a perfectly normal thing.

"Well, are you gonna introduce me?" Ashlyn asked.

"Umm... ok. This is Ashlyn. She just moved here."

"Hi, I'm Kagome's mom."

"And I'm her brother Souta."

"Nice to meet you," Ashlyn said. She looked at Inuyasha again. "And who are you?"

"That's Inuyasha," Kagome said trying to stay calm.

"Are those ears real?" Ashlyn whispered to Kagome.

Kagome sighed and sat down. She started explaining everything to Ashlyn.

"Where is Inuyasha?" Sango asked Miroku.

"My bet is he's gone to get Kagome."

"Should we go check?" Shippo asked.

"Maybe."

They headed toward the well. As it came into view, they saw Inuyasha helping Kagome and another girl out of the well.

"Hi guys," Kagome said. "I want you to meet my friend Ashlyn.

"Hi," Ashlyn said.

"I'm Sango."

"I'm Shippo and that's Miroku."

Sango kept a close eye on Miroku to make sure he didn't give Ashlyn his "Will you bear my child?" line.

They went back into the village to Kaede's hut. Everyone except Inuyasha sat and talked and got to know Ashlyn. Inuyasha sat outside on a tree limb. A gentle breeze blew.

Inuyasha sat up sraight, alert. He sniffed the air, but the scent carried on the breeze was now gone. He knew it was impossible, but he was almost positive he had just smelled Naraku. That wasn't what bothered him though. What bothered him was that he had picked up a small trace of his own scent mixed with Naraku's. But how could that be?

"Is something wrong?"

Inuyasha looked down at Kagome.

"I smell Naraku," he said. "His scent is coming closer."

Kagome nodded to show she understood and ran to get the others.

Inuyasha jumped off the limb and stared in the direction the scent was coming from. He could still smell his scent mixed in. What was going on?

a few minutes later

Ashlyn walked sadly back toward the well. They said it was too dangerous for her to stay. She didn't care. She wanted to stay.

She heard a scream in the distance. She stopped. She looked at the well and then in the direction she heard the scream coming from. She headed toward the scream.
