Chapter 1

Joey Wheeler was running home from school that day. He was a new student at Domino High School in Japan. Even thought today was his first day in a new school, that didn't protect him from the onslaught of chores that his grandfather had given him. Joey promised that he'd be home on time to do them, right now, he was running late.

Joey was almost there when he came to a stop; in front of a long, large set of steps.

"God I hate these things!!!" Joey yelled as he ran up them. 'Why doesn't gramps just install an elevator, make our lives a lot more easier.' He thought.

In about five minutes, Joey was done with the stairs. He walked into the house and sat down on the kitchen counter the second he got there.

"Hard day?" His aunt asked.

"Yes Aunt Hanna; but school wasn't too bad." Joey panted.

Hanna poured Joey a cup of water and handed it to him; Joey gratefully accepted the water.

"Oh, I see you're here on time." Joey's grandfather said as he entered the kitchen.

"Now Papa, let Joey rest a little before you drown him in chores." Hanna said. "Better yet, let him do his homework first."

"I don't have homework today." Joey said.

"I'll let you rest for two hours, after that, work until dinner." Grandpa said.

Joey nodded.

Today, Joey was to pick up the debris outside from the thunderstorm that struck the night before; he was to sweep the outside of the house; and help Grandpa arrange some of the ancient scripts he had in his library. On the next day, which is Saturday, he had only one thing to do; clean the Well Shrine. (All Joey and everyone in present time knows about the story is the priest and the jewel, but no one knows the priest's name.)

The Well Shrine is the main attraction at the temple. The story of the well is that there once lived a demon named Setoyasha. Setoyasha was only a half demon who longed to be a full demon; there was a powerful jewel that could make his wish come true. The jewel was under the watchful eye of Priest Jounouchi; the name of the jewel was the Universe Jewel; the reason why the jewel was called that remains unknown; as of the full story.

A few times Setoyasha tried to steal the jewel away; but that was before it was handed down to Jounouchi. When it was handed down to Jounouchi; Setoyasha didn't know what he was in for. The first time Setoyasha tried to steal the jewel from Jounouchi; he didn't know what skills Jounouchi had. Setoyasha ended up getting hit with one of Jounouchi's defense arrows; the arrow wasn't fired to kill him, just hurt him. Jounouchi took care of Setoyasha's wound; Setoyasha disappeared for awhile after that.

When Setoyasha reappeared, Jounouchi was still the same; Setoyasha wasn't. Setoyasha swore that he would never try to steal the jewel again; Jounouchi offered his friendship, and that was the beginning of a blossoming love. A year later, Setoyasha started to fall in love with the priest; Jounouchi was feeling the same towards Setoyasha; but they both won't admit it.

Little did the two know, an unknown force was watching them.

Over another year, Setoyasha's and Jounouchi's friendship grew into a strong bond. They were always there for each other. On days when Jounouchi was helping other children; Setoyasha was nowhere in view; but Jounouchi knew that Setoyasha was somewhere watching him. The stronger the bond between the two grew; the stronger the anger of the unknown force grew.

Jounouchi told Setoyasha that the power of the Universe Jewel could turn Setoyasha into a full human being. Setoyasha wasn't sure if he wanted to be full human. Jounouchi said that the jewel would disappear, giving him freedom once again. Setoyasha said that he would think about it; but he asked what he would gain if he turned human. Jounouchi answered Setoyasha's question with a kiss. Little did the two know, in only a few days, it would be the death day of one of them.

On the last day; Jounouchi received a note that he thought was from Inuyasha, telling him to meet in the flower field. Jounouchi went, not knowing the true danger he was in. When he arrived, he expected to see Setoyasha; but he didn't see him. Jounouchi decided to wait for his friend to see if he made an important decision; but he would never find out. The force that was watching them for years imitated Setoyasha's form and attacked him. Jounouchi fell to the ground, wounded greatly and loosing blood fast.

He looked up and saw who he thought was Setoyasha, taking away the Universe Jewel.

"Thanks for the jewel; it was nice of you to bring it to me." The face Setoyasha said. "Now I can have the true power I always wanted."

Tears came to Jounouchi's eyes as he listened to this.

'All this time...' Jounouchi thought. 'All this time he was just using me. He said he loved me!!!'

Jounouchi let out a sob as he looked as Setoyasha walked away.

"Trader..." Jounouchi whispered; then his blue eyes flickered with anger. "TRADER!!!" He screamed.

The real Inuyasha was nowhere near the flower field; he was on his way to Jounouchi's village. He was just walking around, when he felt the wind kick up just a tiny bit in front of his face; he looked to the left at a tree, his eyes widened. He looked to the right and saw who he thought was Jounouchi, with his bow drawn ready to fire another arrow.

"Jounouchi..." Setoyasha whispered. "You said..."

"I don't love you Setoyasha!" Jounouchi spat. "I want you to die!!!" He screamed as he fired the arrow.

Setoyasha jumped in the air, avoiding the arrow.

"You trader!!!" Setoyasha yelled as he ran off. He was planning to steal the Universe Jewel and use it for what he wanted to be almost all his life.

The real Jounouchi was just entering his village, when he heard distant yells. He walked faster to the center only to see that the village's army was trying to kill Setoyasha.

"Master Jounouchi! Setoyasha stole the jewel!" One man yelled when he saw Jounouchi.

"I know..." Jounouchi said. "I'll get him!"

Setoyasha ran out of the village and into the forest. Jounouchi got a horse and went after him.

"I finally have it..." Setoyasha said to himself. 'But am I going to use it for the right thing?' He thought.

"Setoyasha!!!" Jounouchi yelled.

Setoyasha whirled around at the yell; only to find himself hit with an arrow and being pinned to a tree that was behind him. The arrow he was hit with was an attack arrow, but it had a barrier spell so it wouldn't kill him.

"Jounouchi..." Setoyasha whispered, before he fell into his long slumber.

"Big brother!!!" A loud voice yelled.

Jounouchi turned around and saw his ten year old little sister, Shizuka.

"Hey..." Jounouchi said as he fell to his knees.

"NO!!!" Shizuka yelled as she rushed to her brother.

Once she got there, she gently laid her brother on his back; tears running down her cheeks as she looked down at him.

"Shizuka, please make sure they burn the jewel with my body." Jounouchi said.

"Don't talk like that; you are not going to die." Shizuka said as she pressed a piece of cloth down on her brother's wound.

"I love you Shizuka..." Jounouchi said; his eyes lost the shine they always had, then they closed.

"No...no, Jounouchi!!!" Shizuka screamed.

On the day of the funeral, Jounouchi's wish was granted. As his body was burned, the jewel was tucked carefully in his hands and burned along with him; so he could take it into his next life.

The force that caused Jounouchi's death was never discovered.

So far, Joey was half way done with cleaning the debris from last nights storm when Serenity came to help.

"Joey, are you getting paid to do all of this?" She asked.

"Yup, fifty bucks from gramps." Joey said.

"Hey, I need money too!" Serenity said.

"Then go ask Aunt Hanna." Joey said.

"Hey, Joey, Serenity, do you guys want anything to drink?" Aunt Hanna called from the house.

"No thank you!" The siblings called back.

They continued working with the debris.

As soon as Joey was done with the outside, he went inside the house to get the broom and dustpan; he had to sweep outside of his house.

As he was sweeping, his aunt came outside.

"Joey, if daddy comes out asking for me, tell him I went to my friend's house, I need to pick up something I left there." Hanna said. "I won't be long."

"Okay..." Joey said.

Hanna left hurriedly, because she had something on the stove cooking. She would be no longer than fifteen minutes; but she still had Serenity watching the stove for her.

As soon as Joey was done with the sweeping, he went to the kitchen for a break. That's when his aunt returned from her friend's house.

Grandpa came into the kitchen.

"Already lacking off Joey?" Grandpa said. "Shame..." He scolded.

"I'm not lacking off, I just need a few minutes for a break." Joey said. "Please Gramps, ten more minutes."

Grandfather nodded and went to his library.

"I'll be waiting." Grandpa said.

"Joey, you haven't spent a week here yet and you are already working like a dog." Hanna said.

Joey smiled.

"As long as I get paid, I don't mind." Joey said.

Arranging all of the scripts was going to take a while. Joey would always end up opening something and reading it. Grandpa liked this because the boy was reading something that was ancient and found it interesting; it's hard to find teens like that these days.

Joey came across the story he like the most, the Well Shrine's story. Joey wondered if it was true; if there really were such things as demons back in those old days. He wondered if there was really a jewel that powerful.

Some of the story Joey knew, wasn't true. The story that Joey heard said that Setoyasha would always try to find ways to kill the priest anytime he had the chance. The story said that the priest and demon hated each other to no end. Also the story said that Setoyasha and the priest killed each other and the jewel was destroyed during the battle.

Little did Joey know, he'd learn the true story very soon.
