Chapter 3

A spell cast by person unknown

Renamon spent the next week in the feudal era with Sesshomaru and the others. During that time Inuyasha was constantly going back and forth through the well. Renamon enjoyed every minute of her time with Sesshomaru, and each night they would go up onto the roof of Kaede's hut and watch the sunset, curled up in each others arms.

On the night before Sesshomaru, Inuyasha, and the others were due to continue their hunt for Naraku, Renamon and Sesshomaru were enjoying the sunset for what they thought was the last time for a while. They were sitting in silence until Renamon said, "Sesshomaru, can't you stay here just a little longer?"

Sesshomaru shook his head and said, "Sadly I fell we must go and kill that dirty half-demon Naraku."

Renamon sighed as she said, "I thought you would say that." They sat in silent until the sun disappeared, and then Sesshomaru suddenly turned his head. Renamon looked up at him and asked, "Sesshomaru, what is the matter?"

Sesshomaru stood up and said, "Naraku." Renamon stood up beside him and they both jumped down from Kaede's roof. Sesshomaru went inside the hut and in a few seconds the whole group, including Rin and Jaken, were running fast in the direction that Naraku's demonic aura was emanating from. After running for about thirty minutes they ran into the clearing where the Bone Eater's well stood. Inuyasha and Sesshomaru looked around frantically, trying to find Naraku when Sesshomaru realized that Naraku's demonic aura was emanating from the well itself. When he was about to say something a red spire of light erupted from the bottom of the bone eaters well. Before any of them knew it the light grew brighter and blinded them all to what was happening.

Suddenly everyone felt the pressure of something wrapping itself around there waists, and what ever it was began to pull them toward the bone eaters well. Sesshomaru and Inuyasha were trying to cut what ever had a hold of them, but they then heard Sango, Kohaku, and Miroku yelling for help. All three had suddenly begun to glow red, and then with out notice they faded away into thin air. Inuyasha was the next in line, and then Rin, Jaken, Shippo, and Kirara. Sesshomaru then heard Renamon yell his name as she too faded from existence. Sesshomaru then stopped fighting what ever was happening, and he too began to glow red and soon he disappeared into thin air. The light from the bone eater well died out, and a lone cackle could be heard emanating from the bottom of the well.

Sesshomaru was surprised when he woke up on a hard stone surface. He opened his eyes to see it was still dark out, and as he stood up he heard Renamon, Inuyasha, and the others moaning as they recovered from what ever happened. As everyone's eyes adjusted to the light Sango said, "What happened to us? Kohaku, are you alright?"

Kohaku was still disorientated, but was able to say, "I'm fine Sango."

Inuyasha then left out a yelp of surprise as he said, "I know where we are."

As everyone got up they looked around and thought they were just at a shrine somewhere, that it was nothing to get Inuyasha worried. That was until they heard a bus blare its horn, and they all turned to see the bright lights of the city spread out before them like a blanket of stars. Everyone looked in aw except Inuyasha, Sesshomaru, and Renamon who knew that this couldn't be a good thing. They were all brought out of their train of thoughts when they heard Souta calling, "Hey Inuyasha."

Souta ran up to Inuyasha and smiled at him. Inuyasha turned to face him and asked, "Where's Kagome right now?"

Souta scratched his head a second and said, "I think she's up in her room studying." As soon as Souta had said that Inuyasha made one great leap and leapt up to the second story of Kagome's house. He poked his head in her room and after a few moments they all heard Kagome shout at the top of her lungs, "WHAT!"

Kagome's head soon appeared in the window and her jaw dropped as she saw Sesshomaru, Renamon, Sango, Kohaku, Miroku, Shippo, Kirara, Rin, and Jaken were all standing in the court yard of the shrine. Kagome quickly ran down stairs and was out the front door in ten seconds flat. She ran over and asked what had happened. After the explanation Kagome said, "I guess Naraku figured out a way to control the bone eater's well with his power. He must have used it to bring you all here to my time, but why would he do that?"

Renamon sighed as she said, "Isn't that the big question."

Kagome sat silent for a second until Inuyasha asked, "Uh, Kagome."

Kagome looked to Inuyasha and asked, "What is it Inuyasha."

Inuyasha got a slight worried, yet curious look as he said, "I wonder if the Bone Eater's well will still work for you and me."

Kagome got a strange look on her face and then she turned and jogged over to the well house. She disappeared inside for a few seconds, and then reemerged as she said, "The well won't work. I can't get back to the feudal era."

"I wonder what could stop the well from working." Miroku asked as he watched Kagome return to the group.

Renamon said, "I think it just needs time to recover."

Sesshomaru looked quizzically at Renamon a second before he asked, "What do you mean?"

Renamon replied, "For some reason I can sense the power level of the bone eaters well, and after transporting all of use over to this time it has exhausted its reserves of demonic energy. It will slowly regenerate that energy, but until the time it can transport all of you in one day it won't transport anybody or anything to the feudal era."

Everyone nodded in understanding, but then Kohaku piped up and asked, "So, what are we going to do until the well can send us back."

Kagome suddenly went pale at the thought of having to deal with everyone being in the modern era. She dreaded having to explain every little thing, having to keep Sesshomaru from killing anyone, and the worst of them all, trying to keep Miroku from asking every girl on the Japanese islands to bear him a child. With this rush of anxiety Kagome passed out, and would have hit the hard stone of the shrine if Inuyasha hadn't caught her. Inuyasha turned to Souta and said, "Hey squirt. Go get your mom and grandfather up. I think that they should know they are going to have a few house guests." Souta nodded and headed toward the house. In the time it took Kagome's mother and grandfather to get out side she had woken up and was now trying to convince Renamon to get Rika and her friends to help her.

After enough pestering Renamon said, "Alright, I'll ask Rika, but I can't guarantee anything, got it?"

Kagome nodded as her mother and grandfather walked up behind her. Kagome began to explain the situation to them, but the second she mentioned that Sesshomaru, Kirara, Shippo, and Jaken were full demons her grandfather started throwing sutras everywhere and was screaming, "DEMONS BE GONE."

After a few minutes of this Kagome and her mother were able to calm gramps down, and in good time because Sesshomaru was about to do it for them, the hard way. Finally after several minutes of thinking and planning Kagome got everyone together and said, "All right, this is how will work things until we can get something better in place. Sango, you, Kirara, and Rin are going to be staying in my room. Shippo, you and Kohaku will stay in Souta's room. Miroku, Inuyasha, and Jaken will stay in our living room, and Sesshomaru, you will be staying with Renamon at Rika's house for a few nights."

Sesshomaru usual cool exterior concealed the fact that his heart was doing back flips. He looked over toward Renamon and said, "Very well, lead the way Renamon."

Renamon nodded and after telling Kagome to call the house in the morning she stood beside Sesshomaru who formed his usual flying cloud and they left the shrine, heading to the Nonaka residents.

It took them roughly 20 minutes to get across town; all the way Sesshomaru was amazed at the amount of humans in the area. He was angry that there were no more demons, but when ever he was around Renamon the heat of his rage was cooled the second it began to heat up. They landed in the courtyard, and Sesshomaru was glad that the house was at least somewhat like what he was used to. Renamon looked around a second and then turned to Sesshomaru and said, "Wait here, I have to go talk to Rika."

Renamon then coolly walked into the house and found Rika and Seiko were playing a board game while Mukino read a book. Mukino, Rika's mother, was the first to notice Renamon and she smiled and said, "Hello Renamon. How was your trip back to the feudal era?"

Rika and Seiko looked up from their game and Seiko, Rika's grandmother, asked, "Did you get to see all the friends you and Rika made."

Renamon nodded and did a cheesy smile as she said, "Yeah, about that. Something happened."

Rika stood up as she said, "What happened Renamon? Did a digimon bioemerge while you were coming home?"

Renamon shook her head as she said, "Nothing like that. For some reason the well that can transport people through time did something."

Rika raised an eye brow as she said, "What did it do?"

Renamon sighed as she poked her head out into the yard and yelled something. Rika, Mukino, and Seiko waited a second, wondering what was going on. They didn't wonder long though because soon the lord of the western lands, Sesshomaru, walked through the patio door.

Rika was silent a second before she eyed Renamon and asked, "Who else is in this time?"

"Miroku, Sango, Kohaku, Shippo, Kirara, Rin, and Jaken were also transported if you don't include those who could already go through the well. Now, the well has drained its demonic energy, and won't be able to transport anybody for a while. So, that's why Sesshomaru is here."

Rika nodded and turned to Mukino and asked, "Mom, do you mind if Renamon has a friend stay with us for a while?"

Mukino looked over toward Sesshomaru, and after a while said, "Well, a friend of Renamon is a friend of ours. The question is where should he stay."

Sesshomaru walked outside as he said, "I'll sleep on the roof." Then without another word Sesshomaru leapt up onto the roof and laid down. Mukino watched him a second and then turned to Renamon and said, "He seems a little cold, but respectful none the less."

Renamon smiled and looked toward Sesshomaru as she said, "Yep, that's how Sesshomaru usually is with people." Then, without another word Renamon disappeared into the shadows and Rika, Mukino, and Seiko were left to finish what they were doing. Seiko looked over to the clock on the wall to see it was 10:00, and that Rika needed to get to bed, but before she sent Rika off she asked, "Rika, is that the guy you told us about? Is he the one who gave Renamon that sword?"

Rika just smiled as she left the room, and that smile was enough to answer Seiko's question. Soon, everyone was in bed, both at the Higoarashi shrine and at the Nonaka residents. Though no one noticed a certain digital kitsune go up on to the roof to sleep beside the lord of the western lands.
