Chapter 1-Inu in the Ice Cave

by Merlin Storm

Area: Ice Cave of the Murder Valley, Japan- Time: Feudal Era

Naraku let lose a ferocious cackle. He, Kagura, Kanna, Kohaku and Hakudoushi(One of Narakus later incarnations who hasn't appeared in America yet. He's an immortal, blue haired, scythe wielding child.) had all traveled to the Murder Valley with most of the Shikon jewel. They had fought Koga and stolen his shards. Yvonne the Ice Hag, one of Narakus accomplices, had given them refuge in her cave. As usual InuYasha, Kagome, Shippo, Miroku, Sango, Myoga, and Kirara had followed them. Naraku wanted them to do that. Unfortunately, Sesshomaru, Jaken, and Kikyo were there as well. He hadn't counted on this.

It didn't matter. Naraku lifted his fragment and brought Goshinki and the twins back to life. "Attack my children!" he screamed. The incarnations and the heroes engaged in magnificent battle. Naraku sent out one of his tentacles and grabbed Kagome's shards from her backsack. He then took the shard from Kohaku's back and handed the shards to Yvonne. She put the shards in her palm and froze them back together. Naraku took back the jewel and cackled. As he did so, Kagome aimed her arrow at the jewel and fired. The arrow grazed the jewel and seven shards broke off. Five shot through the ceiling and across the earth. The other two fell into Kagomes arms. The blast of light that was emitted from the beam made the entire cave shake. A wall collapsed and a colossal wave washed through the cave. Only InuYasha and Kagome escaped being frozen solid by hopping on Kirara and flying off.

"The others were frozen solid in the cave!" ,thought Inu, "They died along with Naraku. There's nothing more I can do. I've gotta get Kagome to her own time. She's been injured!"

As Inu rushed to the well, he thought Naraku was dead. Oh, how he was wrong.
