A/N: Ok, I think it would be nice to reply to the reviews of my first two reviewers- Ok then... ahem...

anonym: Thank you very much! I think I will update soon! XD

BabyVaniNa: Answering to that question... hmm... I don't really think I was thinking about that at the time... I guess...Hmm.
Well, Maybe I should make it that since Kagome is a girl...no wait... I was thinking...that maybe... every hour that she spends there... will be considered 1 minute in her world... o.o That sounds kind of good... . She if it was about mid-night when she left, then she will have exactly... Umm... 16 days and 6 hours if she wants to make it back by at least 6:30 am! XD lol I'm confusing myself. o.o

Disclaimer: I don't own Inuyasha... I'm still waiting for that telephone call Rumiko! o -dances- XB

Last time: Just then, in front of them, Kagome could see a canon ball flying straight towards them.
"Oh my- Look out!" Kagome screamed, covering her head.
Just then, she lost her happy thought... and began to fall.
-


Kagome could feel her body falling. The wind blew and ruffled her clothes around, her hair whipped at the openings on her face that her hands could not cover.

She waited impatiently for her form to collide with the hard ground. 'God,' Kagome began to think. 'If I have done something horribly bad to deceive you in the past... I'M SO SORRY! WHATEVER IT WAS, IT WAS PROBABLY SOUTA'S FAULT! PLEASE! FORGIVE ME!'

She kept falling and falling...and falling...and falling...and faaaaaling...

Jeez! Was she ever going to hit the earth!

Jerk.

She felt part of her shirt being pulled at... what was that? ... Then she felt herself being moved about... left...then right...then up...and down...left...right...up...down...circles, circles, circles, circles... and then...

SLAM.

Kagome blinked... She didn't feel like she hit anything hard... In fact...she felt sort of wet... Blinking again, Kagome looked around. Where DID he land?

"Where a-...!" Kagome stopped short because as she because to try and speak, water filled into her lungs.

She was under water!

She coughed and sputtered, swimming for the surface as quickly as she could.

Hojo watched in horror as she began to fall. What should he do! He just starred in shock as she began to fall...

Yup...she fell and she fell and she fell... Was she EVER going to hit something?

Hojo blinked. What was he doing? He had to go and rescue her!

Flying down has quick as he could, and saw she was about to fall on a giant bed of leaves that were made up by some force of wind the suddenly came... hm...Wonder what could have caused that?

When he was right next to her, he grabbed part of her shirt, and was going down a little slower...

"What am I thinking? I should bring her back to the lost boys!" He said grinning. He moved past some trees, so he had to move to the left, then some more trees... right... left again... right again... then over a bunch of birds, then under a giant trees branch... left...right...up...down... then Hojo slammed into a tree branch, and began spinning...and then he accidentily dropped her into..

Hojo gasped. "Not the mermaid swimming hole!" He yelled. Making a fist with both of his hands, he said, "That is it! I can not do this alone! I will go and fetch the lost boys!" And so he left...


Kagome reached the top of the water, and gulped in a lung full of air, and then she began to pant heavily. "Oh my-GOSH...What the-heck-happened-to-me!" She sputtered out. Looking all around, she began to take in her surroundings. There were a few huge rocks, and it seemed like there wasn't much land at all...

It was almost like she was in a huge hole... but it was filled with water... hmm... water...hole... a water hole?

Kagome felt a tug at her ankle. 'What was that?' She thought.

All of a sudden she was being pulled around in the water... sometimes she would go under, and she would see glowing green eyes, and other times she would just feel slimey scales brush up against her leg.

Kagome could feel her heart thumping rapidly. In the back of her mind, she could only think of how she was going to get out of this giant lake.

Finally, she spotted a large root that looked like it was coming in from a very large tree that was a bit far away.

She shrugged off the fact that she currently hated herself for not going to the after school swimming practices in her school that have been going on since 2003 in July.

She shook her head quickly, and began to swim a fast as she could towards that large root in the water.

Faster...faster...almost there... "I'm going to make it... I-AWWG!" She was pulled under water.

She blinked several times. Why did she go under all of a sudden? She tried opening her eyes but something told her she didn't want to see what was in the water...which seemed like it was right in front of her...

'What am I going to do? I'm under water, and it feels like a lot of weird things are around me...' Kagome began to feel quite uncomfortable... Was she going to die, or something? She was becoming short of air. It had already been 1 minute, and the highest she could hold her breath was 1 minute and 45 seconds. She shook her head around as if telling her body to make air on its own so she wouldn't have to open her eyes so she could swim to the surface...

What was she thinking! She had to swim to the surface, right now!

Kagome shot open her eyes, only to have them met up with a pair of shocking ice blue ones. Bubbles came out of her mouth as she let out a short gasp, and she began to swim for the lakes edge. She could see the large root from under water... if only she could get close enough to grab it...

She reached her arm out, but her arm was soon caught by a hand with dreadfully long claws, and scales from the wrist up. Suddenly, she didn't feel like she liked water anymore... every time she was in water, something bad always happened to her...

(Flash back...)

A little Kagome, around the age of 5, with short, bobby piggy tails was playing in a swimming hole. She would play with all of her dollies in the small swimming hole. She never liked the water, but the small swimming hole was really shallow, so it was okay...

Just then, Kagome's mother comes over and says, "Kagome dear, Papa and Mama are going to give you a little swimming lesson, okay sweetie?" She said with a smile.

Little Kagome's eyes grew wide, and she shook her head furiously. "No, no, no, no! Kagome-Chan plays right here! Kagome-Chan plays right here!" She cried out.

"But Kagome, if you don't learn now, then when will you?" Her mother said frowning slightly.

Kagome smiled brightly and said, "When Kagome-Chan is elevendy six!" She said with a toothy grin. She was missing a few, so it only made her look cuter when she smiled.

Kagome's mother said to Kagome that if she didn't learn now then Kagome-Chan's Mama and Papa might not have another chance to teach her. Kagome looked down at the ground a bit sadly, and then she looked up at her Mama, and said slowly, "Otay... Kagome-Chan learns to swim..." She said.

Mama smiled, and yelled, "Honey! Kagome said she would let us teach her how to swim!"

"Wonderful! Come over here then 'Gome-chan!" Said her father. Kagome put on the water wings her Papa made for her recently, and trotted over to the larger, and deeper swimming hole. She dipped her right foot into the water... it felt just like her little swimming hole.

Kagome grinned and giggled slightly, and then she kicked her legs over to her Papa. "Papa look! Kagome-Chan already knows how to swim! Kagome-Chan already knows how to swim!" She said laughing. "Ha, ha, ha! Yes Dear, I can see that! But we're going to teach you how to doggy paddle without your winggies on!" He said smiling at her.

Kagome's eyes grew very wide... 'No...winggies?' Kagome thought. How horrible! She wouldn't be able to ensure her safety without her winggies!

Just then, Kagome felt something touch her foot. She looked around the water. "Papa, something touched Kagome-Chan's feets"
"It's quite alright sweet heart; it was probably just a little fish!" Said her Papa.

It kept touching her foot. "Aaah! Ah! Papa! It's won't leave Kagome-Chan alone! Aaah! Aaahh!" Kagome kept squealing, and kicking her legs around, but that just seemed to make it touch Kagome more...

(End Flash back.)

Ok... so that wasn't really bad... but it wouldn't leave her feet alone! Then finally her Papa caught it and they had it for a snack-

Kagome stopped for a moment... that's right... they cooked it. Now that she thought about it... every time she was in the water, after that bad part came, something good happened in return...

She got a small sign of hope after that.

Something bad was happening now...so...something good would come after?

She pulled up her make shift sleeves, and swam faster than she had ever swum before towards that root. The thing that had her arm was chasing after her, on the count that it had lost its grip on Kagome.

Kagome turned around, and saw that she was being fallowed by a large fish looking thing... and then another...and another...and soon there were about 6 of them. Kagome began to feel dead inside. God, please don't let her die! Not here, not now! She kicked her last kick when she finally touched the root. She climbed on top of it as fast as her legs could carry her.

She turned her head to see if those things were still chasing her. ...She didn't see them anymore... maybe they went away cause she got out of the water?

Just then, Kagome felt herself fall through the root. She bumped her head on a piece of wood that was beneath her. "Ooow..." She looked left and right, and then noticed that she was still in the root...and it was hallow... through where she was, to where it hit the land... almost like somebody carved it out.

It looked something like a small boat... large enough for her to lay down in it, and wide enough for her to put her hands behind her head and out stretch her elbows. "Hm... Cool... how very convenient!" She said happily.

Then, out of the blue, one of the things that were chasing her, jumped up through one half of the root, and then crashed through the other half... Kagome would be very surprised if that didn't hurt...much... "I wish I could do something like that." She said as she was being rocked back and forth.

Wait...rocked back and forth?

Kagome looked all around her. She was floating away from the land... and away from the water hole and... what...? There was an opening leading from inside the water hole, out to sea...

Kagome mentally slapped herself. Of course! There had to be! Other wise the water in there would have been filthy! ... Not that it wasn't already.

Her little boat went through the opening, and out to sea... it seemed fine at first... but ...where would she go? She didn't have a pattle, and she didn't dare put her hands in the water. She didn't wanna accidentally fall into the water, and get even more wet!

...Speaking of being wet... Kagome looked at herself... from top to bottom her clothing was soaked.

She was wearing a pear of long pants, and a short sleeved shirt. The Pants were a simple shade of dark blue, and the Shirt was a draw shade of red, with a dark blue star in the middle saying, "Sparkle...sparkle...shiny...shiny..." And that was all. She wasn't even wearing a decent pair of shoes! They were only the shoes she slipped on when she would help her mother in the garden.

Sighing, Kagome thought of what she would do, as her hair blew in the wind. Salty sea air was all around her. Even though it was somewhat salty, it was still quite refreshing in a way...

She hummed a song or two, and then she closed her eyes, and waited for the time to go by...


(At Kagome's house in the real world)

Tick...tock...tick...tock...tick...tock...

30 seconds have passed since Kagome left.

Snore...yawn...kick, kick... snore...snore...snore...


(Back in Neverland.)

Kagome opened her eyes slowly. That was a good nap. She blinked once...twice...was there something in front of her?
She blinked several more times. "What the..." Kagome looked up.

Right in front of Kagome... Was a giant ship, with a dark red flag, with cross bones on it...

This could only mean one thing...

Kagome was feasting her eyes.. on an enormous.. Pirate ship.

What good would come out of this?
