TEN YEARS LATER
Kagome awoke to a young girl's voice, "Sweety, what's wrong? Bad dream?"
The girl nodded and whiped her tear-stained cheek with her sleeve. Kagome scooted over to make room for her and ran her fingers through the girl's hair as she fell asleep. The twenty-five year old Kagome stared out the window as a thought came to her. It had been exactly ten years ago that she had gone through the well that final time.
"I wonder what Sango, Shippo, and Miroku are doing..."she thought to herself.
Kagome stood out of bed, carefull not to wake her daughter, Malina. She crossed the room and sat down at her vanety, looking at the jewelry box before her. She pulled out a necklace with a key hanging from it from under her night shirt and opened the lock to reveal a stack of photos she'd taken once. Kagome's mother had lent her a camera to take with her to the Feudal Era so that she could see what the others looked like. She flipped through the stack, tears falling down her face as the memories came flooding in with each photo. She stopped on one in particular; it was her and Inuyasha. Kagome was on his back and he was looking at her with a smile on his face. She ran her fingers over it and finally broke down. She covered her mouth and closed her eyes as streams of fresh tears fell down.

Inuyasha walked through the woods, but he was different, he had a scar over one eye, his ear had a chunk taken out of it, and his eyes were aged by pain. He walked into a clearing where he approached a cabin. As he walked through the entrance; A woman's voice called to him from another room.
"Inuyasha, sit down, I've made dinner," Kikyo came into the room, "Did you get the shard?"
She asked as she approached him.
"No," he replied disappointedly, "It was just another rumor..."
