author's note: First, I'd like to thank those that have been reviewing. You guys are awesome. Second, I'm writing this as I go. So, sometimes I may update sooner then other times. Thanks again!

The sun managed to peek in through the Japanese style windows and wake me up. I rubbed my eyes and looked around. Where was I, I thought. Oh yeah, I fell through a ditch and came to this world. I had thought it was a dream but apparently it wasn't. I got up from the floor and wondered what I would do next. I heard some people talking in the next room. I slid the door so I could peek in an see. There were five people sitting around the floor on some pillows. One of them was Inu Yasha I could tell and they were all eating something. My eyes first drew its attention on a little boy with a TAIL! WOW! He must be another demon just like inu yasha, I thought. My eyes followed the person sitting to his left. It was a young girl with a kimono on and very long hair. Next to her was a young gentleman with a dark purple outfit and who kept flirting with the girl with the kimono and long hair. He had dark hair that was tied back in a small pony tail. Next to him was…. I touched my face…. This must be the girl inu yasha was talking about. Her face was like mine! Except my hair was longer than hers and we had very different dress styles. But yes she looked like me! She seemed to be arguing with inuyasha about something. I leaned closer on the door to see if I could hear what they were talking about.

As I leaned over the door I sorta busted it and fell to the ground! They all looked at me.

"oh ah ha ha" I laughed nervously, "Sorry I was um… I was um.. Trying to get this door opened it was jammed and I just couldn't get it to open"

"Funny I didn't hear anyone try to open it. You fall through and break doors to try and get them to open. Nice technique! Now the owners of this hut will have u pay for that door" Inu Yasha sarcastically replied.

"Inu Yahsha!" Everyone exclaimed.

"Inu Yasha, that is not how you speak to a lady. Especially, the lady that will bear my children! You will bear my children won't you?" the gentleman in the dark purple outfit asked.

"um… " I stammered as I turned bright red.

"Miroku!" the girl with the long hair and kimono said with an annoyed tone in her voice.

"yeah miroku. Can't you see the poor girl is bright red like a cherry." The little boy stated. I felt my face turn redder when everyone turned to look at me to see.

"And besides, I bet she's wondering who we all are. Let's introduce ourselves. I'm Kagome, that is Shippo, that's Sango, that's Miroku, and I think you've already met Inu Yasha over here." Kagome stated.

"Yeah I'm Vanessa" I shyly stated "it's a pleasure to meet you all."

"She really does look like you kagome." Shippo said.

"Yes she does. So Inu Yasha tells me your from the present as well " Kagome explained. "What part of Japan are you from?"

"Um.. Japan? I'm not from Japan… I'm from the United States of America. I live in the city of Detroit in Michigan."

Everyone looked confused except for Kagome who just looked surprised.

"those are weird names for cities. You must live outside of japan.. Well that explains your funny sounding name." Inuyasha said.

"Yes but I can't explain why someone outside of Japan would be connected to feudal japan" miroku said.

"Neither do I" Sango stated, "But that doesn't matter right now. I think this poor girl just wants to go back home. Isn't that right?"

"yeah" I said without being quite sure.

"Lets wake up the old lady. She might know" Inu Yasha said. "KHATAE! OLD LADY WAKE UP!"

"INUYASHA SIT BOY!" kagome angrily said. "Khatae was nice enough to let us stay in the night. That's not how you talk to her!"

"ohhhh why can't u just tell me that without saying those words" inuyasha said with spirally eyes.

"My my I see inu yasha broke my doors again!" the old lady that they called khatae walked in wearing a white shirt with red pants.

"No old woman this time it wasn't me it was that girl I told you about " Inu yasha said pointing at me.

I reached in my pockets to see how much money I had. I had 25 dollars. "This is all I have but please take it."

"What is that?" Shippo said taking it out of my hand. Oh its more paper so we can burn to make the food hotter he said as he put it in the flames near the food. The flame got higher and I just stared in shock.

"Shippo! Those were american dollars that is what they use for money where Vanessa is from" Kagome said.

"Oh I'm sorry I didn't know but atleast our meals will be a bit warmer!" Shippo said.

"ITs ok" I said "I'm sure it wouldn't have served khatae for much since my money doesn't exist here anyways. So I'm glad I could atleast make your meal warmer" I chuckled.

"So old lady tell us how can we get this girl back to her era and home?" Inu yasha said.

"Yeah maybe I can use my fox demon powers to help her out? Shippo said.

"Oh so you're a demon like inu yasha?" I asked.

"OH yeah except inuyasha is only a half-demon.." Shippo said.

"shut up" inuyasha said as he hit shippo in the head. A lump appeared on shippos head.

"See Vanessa isn't inu yasha mean! He's always picking on me!" Shippo exclaimed.

"I wouldn't have to pick on you if you would just SHUT UP!" Inu yasha said leaving shippo with a second lump to the head.

"Well" Khatae said as she interrupted the little scene. "Inu yasha have u tried using your wind scar? That should be able to break the seal in the portal."

"No" he said.

"Well then lets get a move on then" Kagome said as well all started on a path back to the ditch.
