Night Calls
Disclaimer: I do not own InuYasha, nor do I own its characters. I do, however, own Yure Takeshi and the events revolving around her -- these include her circumstances in the feudal era as well as the movies mentioned in the story ( and to the best of my knowledge, these movies do not exist ).
Summary: There was one other survivor from the Demon Slayer Village, but she wasn't there during the decimation. Where was she? More of a when. Somehow, she found herself in "present-day Japan" and eighteen years later, she returns to the time in which she truly belongs -- certainly, this wasn't in the devious plan of the nefarious Naraku as well! Or was it?
Rated for safety. And what kind of writer would I be if I didn't ask for a response from the readers?
In the last chapter, to make things even weirder, Kagome finds out that Yure has been having dreams about the decimation of the Demon Slayer Village. Looks like Sango and knows about the event? It's too much to think it just a mere coincidence, but, for some reason, Kagome just can't bring herself to believe that Yure is Sango's reincarnation…

"Kagome!"
Immediately, Kagome recognized the voice and opened her arms to catch the small fox demon who had jumped into the well to greet her. "Hey, Shippo!" Kagome said as she climbed up and out of the well to see the others gathered in the small clearance around the well. "Welcome back, Lady Kagome!" Miroku said, enthusiastically. "Uh, thanks," Kagome nodded once, still a little out of it, "Did I miss something? Spirits seem rather high today. Not that it's a bad thing..." "We caught a few bandits who were going to try to raid the village," Sango smiled, stepping forward, "And we confiscated this from their leader." With the emphasis, she put a small shard into Kagome's hand. Within a moment, Kagome knew the aura given off by the Shikon Shard and she smiled as well, "Great! Thanks, Yure!"
"Yure?" Sango repeated, raising a brow. "Who's Yure?" InuYasha asked, "You alright, Kagome?" "Ah, yeah, I'm fine," Kagome assured them, "Sorry. This woman is staying with us for a while and her name is Yure. That's all..." "She's in your time?" Sango asked as her interest seemed to peak. Should I tell her...? Kagome asked herself before answering, "Yeah, she's from my time." Sango nodded, but InuYasha spoke up once more, "Anyway, we still don't have the exact location of Naraku, but we've been hearing rumors of a demon who's been acting funny for a few weeks." "A demon...?" Kagome asked, getting a solemn nod from Miroku, "Indeed. It's news from Hayasaki Town. According to rumors, the demon was pretty harmless until just recently when it started to devour the innards of some of the villagers. If nothing else, this demon could be in possession of a shard of the Shikon Jewel." "Well, then, let's go!"
