?Disclaimer: I don't own Inuyasha, Takahashi-sensei does.

Chapter 1: It begins.

It was 8:00 A.M. The teacher, Mr. Fukinawa, was reading out
of his textbook, and I couldn't be closer to sleep. I glanced
over at the air conditioner. Smoke curled upward out of the
vents, slowly rising towards the ceiling. I sighed. While Mr.
Fukinawa was writing on the board, I slowly unzipped my backpack,
reaching for my new manga issue of Inuyasha.
Ever since I had moved to Japan I had kept current on the
story. Thankfully, my hard studying of the Japanese language had
paid off by allowing me to read the new issues without a
translator.
I cracked open the new book, but frowned as an image of
Naraku seemingly glared up at me.{That wasn't there before!} I
thought. Suddenly, an eerily evil cackle pierced the silence,
resounding throughout the classroom. "Kimi ga baka ningen!" the
voice boomed.
The floor started to shake. The brightly polished tiles
broke apart, and everything started to rumble. Suddenly, a huge
void appeared right in front of my desk. I tried to run, but it
started to suck me in. I looked at my classmates, all seemingly
oblivious to what was happening. The cold of nothingness pulled,
and I was sucked into the void, just as the bell rang.
I awoke with a start.{Where the...} I grasped at my neck. My
hands closed around beads. I looked down, and saw that I was
dressed in a red Haori. My fingernails were really long, and I
realized that I had dog ears. {I'm Inuyasha!!! is this a dream?}
My shocked brain thought. Then, my doggy ears twitched, I heard
a very familiar voice.
"INUYASHA!!OSUWARI!!!!!!!" BA-DONNGGG! The branch I was on broke, and I crashed into the ground with a painful thud.
{Nope, no dream!} I realized. Slowly, I lifted my head, and thought I had
died and gone to heaven. Kagome, Miroku, Sango and Shippou were
all standing over me. "What, Kagome?!?" I replied, trying to play
the part of Inuyasha. "I've been calling you for over an hour,
you jerk!!" "Oh. Sorry." Suddenly, I realized I had slipped out
of character. Everyone was staring at me oddly. "Inuyasha, are
you feeling well?" Miroku asked, while trying to sneak one in on
Sango. She reached over to hit him, but realized that he had
already been hit. She cocked her head, and looked at me. Again, I
had slipped.
"What, I got tired of the lecherous monk, that's all!" I
covered. Everyone seemed to except that, and nodded. Kagome
still looked at me strangely. "You look different Inuyasha, did
you have a good dream or something?" I smiled. "I sure did. Come
on, let's go."
