Author's Note: Wow... being banned from the internet for two weeks is hard... (sighs) But, anyway, thank you for waiting, and now... (dramatic drumroll) Here it is! (These characters are not my own)


"Jenni! You came back!" Shippo exclaimed as he bounded to the blonde girl. Smiling as he leaped onto her shoulder, Jenni stated, "You make it sound as if you were already arranging my funeral…"

"But, I thought that you wanted to be cremated…" Kagome said as she walked towards her cousin, confusion written over her face. Looking at the girl, Jenni mumbled, "Same thing…" Smiling, Kagome took Shippo from the girl as Sango asked, "So, what happened to Sesshomaru? He didn't actually leave, did he?"

"I don't know… he might have followed me to the village… but, if he did, I didn't see him…" Jenni lied as she handed Tetsaiga to Miroku, who slipped the sword back into its empty sheath lying next to the sprawled-out Inuyasha. In reality, Sesshomaru would have followed her the entire way into the village, right up to where she was standing now, but she had told him that it would only aggravate Inuyasha into fighting. So, he had decided to wait at the edge of the woods that bordered the village until she came for him when she thought the time was right.

"Inuyasha! Sit down! Ye are only hurting yourself more!" Kaede commanded to the wounded hanyou as the boy tried to stand. Glaring at the old priestess, Inuyasha argued, "But, he's here! That bastard is right outside of the village! I'll slaughter him!"

"Inuyasha! You will not go out there and fight him! Put two and two together! You are severely wounded and he is not! You won't win the fight, should you go out there!" Kagome yelled at the hanyou, forcing him down to the ground once more by placing her hands on his shoulders and putting all her weight into the movement.

"You don't think that I'd be able to defeat him?" Inuyasha asked dejectedly, ears drooping in hurt.

Sighing, Kagome gently petted the white triangles and watched as the twitched under her administrations. "I know that you'd be able to hurt him, but, as you are currently, you couldn't finish the fight." the girl stated.

"Uh… Kag?" Jenni mumbled from behind her cousin's big ass bag.

"What?" Kagome asked, looking over her shoulder and at the blonde girl that was partially hidden by the large, yellow backpack.

"Uhm… Just to let you know… You have a math exam today…" Jenni informed the other girl as she held out a paper to the young miko.

"What?!" Kagome yelled in surprise, taking the paper from the blonde and finding the date box for that day. Reading her own hand writing, Kagome said to herself, "'TEST: MATH! MUST MAKE AN 'A', OR I HAVE TO TAKE SUMMER SCHOOL CLASSES.'" Jumping and standing, Kagome stuffed her backpack of all her things, saying, "Crap! Jenni, I'm going back home! Come with?" Finding her History book, she shoved it into the last remaining space of her bag, and shouldered the large, yellow object.

"Sure." Jenni said with a shrug, standing to open the flap, holding it for Kagome to run through. "I need to go to school one of these days…"

Three minutes later, the girls were both jumping down the well, on their way back to their own times. Jenni had thanked Inuyasha, who had ignored his wound to carry herself and Kagome to the well, while Kagome had pulled the other girl's shirt and dragged her to the well, forcing her down. As Inuyasha was walking back to Kaede's hut, the hanyou stopped suddenly when the wind blew an unwelcome scent his way. "Sesshomaru…" the half-demon growled to himself.

"Little brother…" the elder demon said, jumping down from the tree in which he had previously been sitting.

"What do -you- want?!" Inuyasha demanded, cracking his knuckles and flexing his fingers, preparing his claws for a battle.

"Well, now I know where those two girls go. Does that well really connect to the future?" the inu-youkai queried, his eyes analyzing the way that Inuyasha's body was tense and the angry aura surrounding his body.

"Why do you want to know?" Inuyasha demanded suspiciously. Why was Sesshomaru interested in the Bone Eater's Well…?

"It doesn't matter…" Sesshomaru said and disappeared so suddenly that even the brittle leaves at his feet did not stir.

"W-what? He gets weirder by the day…" Inuyasha mumbled as he hiked back to the village. When he reached the priestess's hut, Sesshomaru emerged from the trees once more. Then the dog demon had sat on a log and stared at the well long into the night, his eyes showing that he was deep in thought.
