Crystal: Wahhh! My partner in crime has been locked out of her computer! It's completely screwed! But I shall be strong for you….our reviewers! (Sniffle) My brave comrade has asked me too continue with the story. WAAAHH!

Last Time

"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!"

Chapter 3

Kagome turned to stare at Miroku, who was waving to the man like he was a friend of his.

"It's great to see you! How are you doing? Where are you staying? What're you doing back in town?" Miroku exclaimed asking question after question.

Inuyasha smirked at him, "Those punks that were following me had an 'accident.'"

Miroku laughed and patted Inuyasha on the back, "You always did know how to make a clean getaway! Oh, wait, I have someone who you might want to meet. Inuyasha meet Kagome. Kagome this is Inuyasha, he might be able to help you with your little….problem, he's sort of a treasure hunter."

"Hey, what's up?" She greeted, kinda freaked out by the guy's gun holsters.

"Hmm," Inuyasha glanced at her and turned away.

'Hmm to you too, jackass," Kagome thought angrily. She then noticed the looks she was getting. "Did I say that out loud?"

Sango, who was trying to hide her laughter, nodded.

"Oh, well……sorry?" Kagome said, sheepishly.

Inuyasha raised an eyebrow at her and was about to say something when the saloon doors flew open revealing two angry, dung covered bandits.

"Oh, I guess they found me." Inuyasha said, looking bored.

The two bandits looked at Inuyasha and one growled, "You bastard! You tricked us!"

Inuyasha sighed and walked up to one of them, who reached for his gun, and flicked him sending the guy to the other side of the room. "Man, what a weakling. Now see what you made me do."

The other bandit shook with anger and ran to his unconscious friend, "You'll regret that dog-boy! Our boss won't like this and he'll just send more of us after you!" Then the guy took off.

Miroku sighed and said, "I guess you got to go again."

Inuyasha looked at him, "Yeah, I don't want anything bad happening to my best bar now do I?"

Inuyasha crouched down as if he was about to run, and in that split second a thought struck Kagome.

'Wait, if he's leaving town and he can help me why don't I go with him! But…he's so not gonna let me with his attitude that I don't doubt it. But he's leaving. Guess there is only one thing I can do…"

In that second when Inuyasha lifted off his heels Kagome jumped on his back and it was too late for Inuyasha to stop seeing as his body was listening to the control of his brain. When he stopped they were at the borders of the small town.

"What do you think you're doing?" Inuyasha yelled into Kagome's ear.

"God, volume down, dude, I was just hitching a ride, remember Miroku said that you could help me with my little problem."

"He said I could, not that I would. Beside to help you I'd have to be a psychiatrist!"

Kagome growled and pulled on some of his hair, "Listen buddy, I'm not in the mood! I am stuck in the past because of a freaky jewel that's disappeared! I am missing all of my finals! I'm going to flunk out of school if I don't get back and you are gonna lose a very important part of youself if you don't help me!"

Inuyasha stared, "Did you say a jewel, as in the Shikon jewel?"

Kagome let go of his hair and said, "Yeah so?" she crossed her arms stubbornly, ready for whatever this guy could dish out.

"It just so happens that I am looking for that very jewel."

Kagome brightened, "So…..you'll help me?"

"No."

Kagome glowered at him.

"But I will allow you too follow, but only because I need a cook."

Kagome sputtered, "A cook! Like I'm gonna" Kagome was cut off by a feminine hand, namely Sango's.

"She accepts." She heard Miroku say.

"Do I have say in this?" Kagome asked when she was freed.

"No, besides Sango and I want to go too."

Inuyasha looked at them, "Why?"

Sango answered this time, "Because we don't want to stay in that town for the rest of our lives."

Kagome nodded, "Ok! You guys will be better company then Mr. Sunshine over there." She said pointing to a grumbling Inuyasha, who was saying something about babysitting.

Sango smiled, "Then it's settled, Miroku and I are coming with you and Inuyasha!"

Kagome cheered, "Yay! You know what; all of a sudden this feels like it's going to be a ton of fun….by the way, does anybody know where exactly we're going?"

At first there was pure silence until, "I heard a rumor about a psychic who can answer all questions asked. She lives in a village nearby."

Kagome smiled, "Then that's where we'll go! Yay! This'll be so much more fun then detention."

Miroku turned to Sango and Inuyasha, "Any of you got a clue what she's talking about?"

"Nope."

"Not a clue."

Thus the beginning of a wonderful adventure. Yeah right.

Crystal: I'm too sad to say anything witty…..please review for Phoenix's sake!
