Disclaimer: (fresh tears fall) Don't remind me that I don't own Inuyasha!
Sanci: Wow! Already on my second chapter! Hope those readers of mine aren't bored yet.
Inuyasha: Who cares about the readers, I want to know why you let Kagome get away!
Sanci: Inuyasha, you're still whining about this? I already told you, Kagome has to go home so my storyline will play out right.
Inuyasha: Why do I always have to be the bad guy? ( pouts )
Sanci: (getting impatient) You aren't the bad guy, that's just how your character is. But no matter how bad you get Inuyasha, I'll still love you. (crushes Inuyasha with a hug)
Inuyasha: Help! (squeaks)
Sanci: Don't worry, I won't damage you. I need you in my story. (Grins evilly and shoves Inuyasha in the book) See you soon!

Finding What Was Lost
By: Sanci J
Chapter 2: Where are they?
-
"Wow, Kagome's world is so different." Sango reached the top of the ladder and climbed out of the well, and stared at the walls surrounding her. She checked and was relieved to see she still had Kagome's phone and put it in her pocket. "Hmmm..." she walked to the door and opened it to see a small boy.
He screamed. "Shhh!" Sango whispered. "I am Kagome's friend Sango."
The boy's eyes widened and he smiled. "Oh! You are from the Warring States Era? I wondered if she had any friends there other than Inuyasha...Wait!...I thought Kagome was still in the well with you guys?"
"No, she came home to retrieve supplies when her mother called her." Sango peered at him as they made their way to the house. "You are Kagome's brother?"
They walked into the quiet home and Sango stared at the different furnishings she had never seen before.
"Yes...Sango. My name is Souta and I'm eight years old already." ( A/U: Is his age right? Let me know.)
"Really?" Sango asked. 'Where is Kagome?'
He nodded and grabbed a cookie that was sitting on a plate on the kitchen table. "I haven't seen Kagome in a while and I miss her." He came closer to her and whispered, "But don't tell her that."
At that, Sango smiled thinking of her younger brother Kohaku. Her smile waned when she thought of him. It had been a long time since she had seen him as a living person and not as Naraku's puppet.
"Kagome!"
Sango snapped out of her revere to see Kagome coming down the stairs wearing a green sweater and jeans. Souta ran and hugged her. "I missed you brother." she said.
"You were gone a long time Kagome." Souta shook his head sternly.
"I know, but I have some things I have to take care of, then I'm leaving again." Sango saw Kagome frown sadly as she hugged Souta another time.
The two made their way to the kitchen, where Sango was sitting.
When Kagome saw Sango, her face brightened. "Sango! What are you doing here?" She hugged Sango and sat down across from her and Souta left the room to remove his shoes.
Sango sighed. "I'm here because Inuyasha broke into a rage after he saw you jump in the well. Oh, Kagome, you should have seen it. He was threatening us while he was defeating the worm-demons. I know he'll come after you, so I came to get you quickly before he could."
Kagome sighed and stared sadly. "It's been getting worse every time. I worry one of these days he will find some way for me to never return home." She played with her hands. "I'm also surprised. How could you get through the well?"
Sango shrugged. "Miroku had a jewel shard on him. I have no idea where he got it though."
"When's Inuyasha coming to visit me again?" Souta whined at the door.
Kagome hoped Souta hadn't heard what she and Sango had been talking about. "Who knows, but I hope not anytime soon." She said seriously and avoided looking at her brother.
"Can I go see him then?" Souta butted in, and grabbed another cookie, stuffing it in his mouth.
Sango thought red steam was going to come out Kagome's ears. "No, Souta! Definitely not! And stop eating all the cookies! It's almost dinnertime." Souta's eyes widened and he ran to his room.
Kagome went to the fridge feeling preoccupied and brought out the lemonade and two glasses. When she sat down she sighed again.
"You know Kagome, he reminds me of Kohaku." Sango took a drink of the lemonade Kagome had given her. She also stared at Kagome. 'She's acting unlike herself...'
"Really?" Kagome paused. "Yes, you are right. Oh and Sango, I'm sorry about my brother." She reached to the counter where her mathematics textbook was.
"What is that?" Sango asked pointing to her textbook.
Kagome half-smiled. "It's my homework for school. This is why I had to come home. Because I've been spending so much time in the feudal era, I've been missing school."
"Why didn't you tell me? This is all Inuyasha's fault."
"This is all Kagome's fault!" Inuyasha said angrily through grit teeth. 'Just wait wench, you'll pay.'
With all the demons flooding towards him, he knew it wouldn't be that easy. "Damnit!" He was cut on the left shoulder by on the worm's sharp teeth. 'Kagome has to stop distracting me!' He tried to move his arm, and it moved, but blood was pouring from the deep cut and he couldn't fight them alone.
Miroku moved closer to Inuyasha and opened his wind tunnel.
"No!" Inuyasha yelled, but Miroku had begun to suck all of the demons in, so he plunged Tetsusaiga in the ground and held on.
Within ten seconds, the demons were gone.
Inuyasha stared at Miroku with huge eyes and Miroku laughed, putting his beads back in place. "Finished. Now that's what I call extermination." He grinned. "Don't worry, you can thank me later." Seeing Inuyasha holding his left shoulder made him frown and he leaned over Inuyasha's shoulder to examine the wound.
"I'm fine, it's just a cut! Get away monk." Inuyasha said angrily.
"Geez, dog-boy. I was just saving your butt." Miroku sighed in exasperation and Inuyasha glared at him.
Inuyasha narrowed his eyes. It was really quiet. "What happened to Sango and Shippou monk? Where are they?" he asked. Inuyasha grumbled not seeing or smelling anyone.
For once, Miroku didn't know what to say. 'How do I say this the right way?' "Uh, um...Sango went to get Kagome and bring her back. I don't know where Shippou is though." Inuyasha growled. "Don't even give me that look Inuyasha. I know Shippou didn't go after Sango."
"I didn't mean that! And how can you be sure of it?" Inuyasha asked, cracking his knuckles.
"Well, I was there when she left." Miroku replied simply and rubbed his hand.
"Miroku, you stupid monk! You let her leave? What else did you do, give her the jewel shard we just got?"
Miroku didn't answer, and Inuyasha sliced down a tree. "You love- sick monk!"
"We have to make sure every demon is gone Inuyasha." Miroku said lightly, trying to stall, and sat against a tree trunk. He was amazed that Inuyasha's wound was already healed.
"They are, for now at least. Come on, I'm going to get Kagome. Either you stay or come with, seeing as how you guys can get through the well now." Inuyasha jumped over two trees and stopped in front of the well.
"Wait Inuyasha, I'm coming!" Miroku grabbed Inuyasha's haori and they jumped into the well.
"Sango." Kagome whispered as she leaned over Sango's sleeping form, but she wouldn't wake up. Kagome wasn't too surprised, after all, they had stayed up later than Sango's usual bedtime eating snacks the night before.
Kagome had just returned from Wacdonalds with her friends after a long day at school. It was already nighttime.
She shook Sango again. "Sango, time to go back to your home." Saying that last sentence effected Kagome more than she thought it would. She had to remember that the feudal era was Sango's home, not Kagome's. Which reminded her that their hunt for the shards was going to end soon. She felt tears cloud her vision and quickly began to wipe them away. 'I've got to get back before Miroku can't hold Inuyasha back anymore.'
The window creaked and Kagome jumped. 'What was that?' She reached for something to have for protection and felt a hard plastic surface. She gripped it close to her chest. "Who is it?" She wished she hadn't left her bedroom lights off when she walked in.
Footsteps...She sucked in a quick breath. 'I'll just hit the robber as hard as possible and hopefully knock him out.' A hand covered her mouth before she could scream, and she threw the protection she had against the wall in shock.
Sango woke up when she heard the phone hit the wall. "Kagome?" she whispered into the darkness.
Kagome felt warm hands along her cheek. "Stop moving, it's only me and Miroku." The intruder's voice said harshly at Kagome's ear.
'It's only Inuyasha!' Kagome thought and stood still, her anger rising. She shoved him away and glared at where he stood in the dark. "What are you trying to do, give me a heart attack? You idiot, I thought you were a robber, or an escapee from jail or something! How dare you try to scare me like that!" she screeched at him.
She didn't notice that Inuyasha had cowered back against the window in fear, a sweat drop appearing on his forehead. 'Ugh...I have got to find the light.'
Just then Sango squealed, as if something had fallen on her. "So, you decided to take me up on my offer?" a persuasive male voice asked.
Kagome knew who was speaking and fumed.
"Miiiiiiirrroooooooookkkkuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!" Sango screamed in fury as she fought Miroku, trying to push his weight off of her. "Get off now!"
Kagome found the light switch and light filled the room. "Shh! My mom might hear us!" she whispered.
"Owww, my eyes..." She heard Inuyasha grumble, but she was too busy gaping at the position Sango and Miroku were in. She could tell Miroku had jumped on top of Sango while she was still lying down on the bed because Sango was stuck underneath the covers under Miroku's legs. Sango was as shocked as she was.
"Man Sango, you make it so hard for me to show you how much I care." Miroku said almost sadly and got off of Sango.
Kagome felt a giggle escape her mouth and Sango glared at her in return as she stood. Kagome's mouth closed. "Sorry."
Sango turned her glaring gaze on Miroku to see him grinning. Sango growled and began to punch him repeatedly until he fell on the floor unconscious.
Kagome felt bad for the lecher. She couldn't remember Sango beating on him that many times before. "Do you think he'll be alright?" she asked worriedly. A bruise was beginning to show on his cheek.
Inuyasha laughed from behind Kagome. "That lecher? Of course he'll be fine."
Sango's eyes widened and Kagome turned to look at him. He had black shiny hair and dark eyes. She saw his claws and fangs were also gone. 'Inuyasha's human already!' She smiled at him, then she remembered what he did to her and she frowned angrily at him.
Inuyasha was confused at her different looks. "What wench?" he said roughly standing back up.
"What are you doing here?" She saw the bloodstain on his shoulder and gasped. "What happened?"
"Nothing, it's already healed." he said hoarsely.
"Well then? Answer my question, why are you here?"
"What else, coming to get the both of you! After you deserted us back there when I told you not to leave! Stupid idiot!"
Kagome fumed. She hated when he called her names, but it was worse whenever he did in his human form, because using her command would hurt him more. But no way would he get away with that. "Sit boy!"
He growled as he fell face first into the hard floor. She winced at the noise it made and hoped her family hadn't heard.
Miroku groaned. He slowly lifted himself up and glanced at Sango. "Geez, Lady Sango. It was an accident. It was too dark and I couldn't see so I ran into the bed and fell on you-apparently." He rubbed his puppy-dog eyes (hahahaha...I couldn't stop myself!) and Sango rolled hers.
When Inuyasha stood, he was angrier; even angrier than usual when he was 'sat'. It probably had something to do with the fact that tonight was the night where there was no moon. 'I hate being human!' He felt so weak without his power. All because he was only half-demon, and half-human. He looked up to see Miroku and Sango staring at him while Kagome was staring at something more interesting on the floor. "What are you looking at?" he snarled.
Kagome sighed, and changed the subject. "You guys go ahead while I pack. Shippou's probably worried. You should have brought him with. Here, give him this." She handed Inuyasha a huge lollipop that she retrieved from her dresser. "It will calm him down."
Inuyasha stared at the lollipop in his hands and glanced uneasily at Miroku.

ammeirs Thanks for reviewing and don't worry, I'm not quitting yet! I hope you keep reading, my beloved first reviewer! Thanks again for reading and reviewing!
beth1685 Actually, about the cell phone thing, I haven't any idea if a cell phone would work in another era. We haven't found out whether it does or not, so I added it in to help my story. It is barely in the story because later on it didn't seem right for it to be there, how it could have a signal and so on. I had a feeling the questions about the phone would come soon, but yeah, its all just my imagination adding it, that's all. Oh...and the amount of pages, huh? Don't be intimidated! I just try to prepare myself, and boy, I don't know how I survived this long! Lol! I'm a little worried on how I am going to finish it, thou I have a vague idea. Mostly I think of how I am going to finish a story while I'm in the middle of it. Also in my spare time I think of different interesting ways for it to end, and my mind wanders. Your stories are great, so don't think too much about it. It will be a great story, I guarantee it! Thanks for taking the time to read and review.
Wow, that seemed lots longer than the first chapter. So what do ya think? Was it interesting? Hope I didn't leave ya on a cliffhanger; if I did-sorry!
I just got back from watching Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azcaban and it's a great movie.
Oh, phew! I almost forgot to give a mini exerpt for the next chapter.
Chapter 3: I want to stay
"Why are you standing there?"she asked. "Sit down-" There was a loud crashing sound as Inuyasha kissed the hard floor.
Ta da! Oh, and also, should I mention in a future chapter some of my favorite mangas and movies? Let me know! Thanks for reading and please review, it means lots to me!
