Hibiki Ryoga regained consciousness on a futon in the middle of a room. It seemed as if he was brought inside by the girl he had met earlier. He got up in alarm, noticing that it was getting dark. If he didn't get to the mountains, he'd never be able to train, and if he didn't train, he'd never beat Ranma! He jumped nervously when he saw the young lady approaching.
"Your name's Hibiki-kun, right?" asked the girl. "My name is Higurashi Kagome."
"Sorry. I'm Hibiki Ryoga. Just call me Ryoga..." he trailed off. "So, how do I get to the mountains?" He shouldered his pack and walked around. "Speaking of lost, how do I leave? I'm terribly sorry."
"Oh, here." Kagome beckoned to him and he followed her out the door. She pointed south. "The mountains are that way. You sure you'll be okay? That's a really long way to go, Ryoga-kun!"
"Thank you," Ryoga bowed. "I'll be on my way now." He started walking toward his destination.
"Wait!" Kagome cried, as Hibiki Ryoga walked north into the shrine, tripping over the edge of the well in the shadows of the evening. "Are you all right?"
There was no answer. He hadn't fainted again, had he? Kagome jumped down the well. She was suddenly overshadowed by two figures. Ryoga-kun was standing above the well, across from a bad-tempered hanyou with long, white hair and fuzzy ears. They were both staring at each other like they were great rivals. Inu-Yasha-kun reacted first.
"Sankon Tetsusou!"
