Last time

He soon found herself resting in the Wild West saloon replica; she sat on one of the freshly cleaned stools and took a breather. She soon was on the other side of the bar counter playing bartender. "Hey! How ya doin'? How's ol' Johnny?" She knew it was pathetic but hey, she was bored!

All of a sudden she noticed something glittering in the corner of a cabinet, she looked around searching for the security guards that most likely would be looking for her that is after they tackled Ian and made him put on clothes. She picked it up and took notice it was a smooth round rock, a pink color. Kagome guessed it was worthless but all in all she decided to keep it, sort of as a souvenir of her misery.

She looked around her and sighed, "I bet things were better in the Wild West. I wish I was there, right now," she put down the rock and moved away from the counter, not noticing the rock was shining. She moved to walk down to the hall to look for the way out when her vision got hazy and glittery. The scene in front of her slowly began to change, the old bar table became shiny and new and the cabinets were filled with liquor bottles. The last thought that struck Kagome before darkness claimed her was, 'I wonder if this means I get out of a lecture?'

Chapter 2

"Miss, miss are you alright?" Kagome moaned and swiped at whoever was trying to wake her up from her peaceful sleep. She cuddled closer to the ground and the person who she had hit poked her once again.

"Leave me alone, Sota. I swear I'll kick you in the gonads if you don't," Kagome muttered sleepily. But just as she finished it hit her like a ton of bricks. 'Wasn't I at the museum, how did I get home?' Kagome shot up, effectively, putting whoever was leaning over her out of commission for a while. She looked at whoever she hit and saw it was a man.

"Hey, sorry bud-," she cut herself off when she looked around. She was definitely not home or at the museum. All around were guys and girls drinking and playing poker and one guy threw a table at another guy. Not to mention the fact they were wearing old clothes. Either she was dreaming or her classmates had gotten a little…..rowdy, for lack of a better word.

"Don't worry about the letch, he's had a lot worse," smiled a young girl, shaking Kagome out of her stupor. The girl held out a hand and said, "I'm Sango, nice to meet ya, are you alright?"

Kagome took her hand, nodded and looked at everything around her as if to confirm it's actually there. This bar looked exactly like the bar in the museum except it looked a lot newer.

"Um, not much of a talker, huh? Here sit down and relax, you took quite a spill," Sango led her to one of the stools and began asking Kagome something, not that she was listening. She was to busy staring at the people around her.

'Okay, this is officially weird. One second I'm ditching the next I'm in some kind of western, though it seems real enough. Maybe I hit my head and I am dreaming……no, this to weird to be a dream! Wait a second; this happened right after I wished I could see the Wild West…….that rock! It must have done this!' Kagome began searching her pockets franticly but she couldn't find it. 'I got to find that rock it might be my only way home!'

"Excuse me, miss?" Sango looked at Kagome, waiting for something though Kagome didn't know what.

"Yeah," Kagome said, finally getting over the shock and now merely feeling the need to go home.

"I asked what your name was, I can't keep calling you miss, now can I?" Sango smiled.

"It's Kagome." Kagome said automatically.

"Where are you from, you don't seem to be from around here." The bartender that Kagome thought she knocked out had been the one to say that. 'Well, he bounced back kind of quick.'

"Why would you say that," Kagome said, giving the guy a weird look.

"Hey, I don't mean anything by it, it's just that we don't get that many pretty girls around here, especially strangely dressed ones." The guy received a few smacks for that by the women in the bar.

Kagome frowned, "My clothes are fine."

"Don't mind Miroku he's trying to be charming, he hits on every girl who walks through the doors." Sango said, glaring at him.

Kagome relaxed and said, "Sorry, I'm just tired." At least these people didn't seem so bad.

Sango smiled and said, "You know you can come with me right after I finish work and I'll house you for the night. That is if you don't have a place to sleep."

Kagome blinked and paused, she wasn't even thinking about the fact she had to stay the night in this weird place. She inwardly sighed, 'Well, it looks like I'll be here a while, at least until I can get that rock. That rock is exactly what I need to get home but how?' Kagome looked at Sango and nodded.

Sango got up and continued working, leaving Kagome to Miroku. "Hey, you want a drink?" Miroku asked.

Kagome looked at the many liquor bottles and smiled, "Sure, I'll have a tequila."

Miroku gave her a look and lifted a bottle. "Here," he said as poured it into a glass.

Kagome slowly reached for the glass, took a sip and coughed, "That's water!"

Miroku laughed and smirked, "Do you really think I'll give you a tequila?"

Kagome rolled her eyes and said, "Yeah, actually I did."

Miroku laughed again and soon Kagome finding herself actually speaking to a guy without wanting to impale herself with a fork. She giggled at his many jokes though they were quite stupid and kinda sad until Sango came back to take Kagome to her home.

"Ok, time to go." Sango smiled, leading Kagome out of the bar. Kagome shielded her eyes from the sun and looked around. All around were girls in frilly dresses, guys laughing and talking and horses with carriages. It was as if she had been thrown into an old movie.

Sango grabbed Kagome's hand and pulled her across the dirt road street, they're shoes kicking up dust. Kagome knew she was being stared at by someone so she turned around and sure enough there were a group of girls talking, laughing and not to mention pointing at her. She stared back and they turned away, whispering.

'I guess some things never change.' Kagome thought sweat dropping.

"Ignore them, that's Maya and her little henchmen." Sango made a face at the girl's name.

"I take it you don't like them?" Kagome said.

"Ech! They're so annoying. They think I'm "unladylike."" Sango rolled her eyes and stared at Kagome, "But judging by the way they're looking at you they don't like you either." Sango walked up to door and pulled on the handle.

"This is where you live?" Kagome asked curiously, looking inside to see a small apartment-like building.

"Yeah, here I'll show you to your room." Sango moved down the hall and opened a door to a small room with a bed and a window facing it.

"This is nice." Kagome said smiling, "Cozy."

"So, I got a question for you." Sango said, sitting down on the bed and motioning for Kagome to do the same.

"What is it?"

"Well, I just want to get to know you since you'll be staying with me. So, how old are you?" Sango asked, trying not to sound nosy.

"I'm 16."

Sango smiled and said, "Oh, well I'm 18. So, where is your family, most people your age are traveling with family."

Kagome felt a pang of panic and wondered if she should tell Sango the truth but settled for, "I got separated from my family a little while ago."

Sango gave Kagome a look she couldn't figure out before she said, "If you don't want to tell me the truth, its okay."

Kagome paused, shocked, before sighing, "You want the truth? Well. It all stared at a stupid field trip…." Kagome told her the whole story and when she was finished she looked at Sango to gauge her reaction

"Well……….I asked for the truth didn't I?" Sango laughed before something in the story hit her, "Wait, you said this rock was small, pink and is the reason you're here?"

"Yeah?"

"Well, I think I know what rock you're talking about, though it's not a rock. It's the Shikon, the sacred jewel. I supposedly disappeared a few years ago but everyone says it still exists."

Kagome brightened and said, "Then I got to find it! I might not like home all that much, but who'll annoy Kikyo if I stay here!"

Sango laughed and said, "Well, if you really want to, I guess I'll help too! I've always wanted to get out of here."

Kagome did something she normally doesn't do to anyone outside of her family, she hugged Sango. "I guess it's time to go to sleep." She looked out the window only to see an empty street and the rising moon.

"Bye, I'll have clothes ready for you for tomorrow. I'll be at the saloon." Sango moved to the doorway, "Goodnight."

"Goodnight."

The Next Morning

Kagome moaned in her sleep, 'Ahh, the blissful few seconds before I ask why am I not sleeping on my own bed.' She sat up and rubbed her eyes. "I guess I should get dressed."

She spotted the pile of clothes and picked them up. 'Oh hell no.' In front of her was one of those frilly dresses she she's those woman wear in old movies. 'This has got to be Sango's idea as a sick joke!' But Sango didn't pop out of the doorway and say surprise so Kagome guessed she was serious.

She quickly dressed and walked outside; it was livelier then everwith tons of people every where. She crossed the street and entered the saloon.

"Hey, Miroku," Kagome greeted the cheery bartender.

"Hi, so Sango tells me you wanna get out of here tonight, something to do with the Shikon right?"

"Yeah, what do you know about it?"

Miroku shrugged, "'Mostly rumors, like how the Shikon can supposedly grant any wish. I'd sure love a jewel like that."

"Oh-" Kagome was cut off by the loud slam of someone entering the saloon. She turned around to see a man, the dark-haired brooding kind. The ones who are almost guaranteed to steal money from an old croon.

"Inuyasha!"

Inuyasha: Wanna know what's going on? Well, they started fighting over who could torture me first and got into a staring contest.
