June 17(continued),

Oh my god! What happened was the absolute strangest! Once I stopped writing, Kagome and Inu Yasha had reached the well and looked down. I couldn't move, so I just sat there, looking back up at them. We stayed quiet for a reeaally looong time before they reacted. Inu Yasha started yelling something and Kagome tried to calm him down. After they helped me out of the well, Inu Yasha stuck his hand out, as though for me to place something in it.

"Gimme your jewel shard." I was totally confused. Jewel Shard? What Jewel Shard. I told him that. I said, "I don't have a jewel shard!" "Of course you do! How else did you make it through the Bone-Eaters Well?" "I don't know, I just did!"

"Wait, you're from my summer school, aren't you?" (Kagome) "Yeah. I just moved in, I'm Kameko." "It's nice to meet you, but what are you doing here?" "I wish I knew! I just went down the well and when I landed, I ended up here. My ankle's hurt though, so I can't do much." "I understand. Let's get you to Kaede's village."

By this point, I was totally confused and freaking out. I wish that was the worst of it, but it's not! Far from it in fact!

Anyway, they help me back to Kaede's village. Right on the outskirts of town where three people. One was a girl with a huge Boomerang on her back. Another was a guy with a staff and wearing purple and the third was a really small boy with a tail as big as himself! They approached us, and once again, I was lost.

"Hi, Kagome! I thought you were going to leave. Oh, who's that? She looks like she's from your time!" the girl said. Kagome nodded at her. "Yeah, I thought I was too, but then we found her at the bottom of the well. She's hurt so we're taking her to Kaede." 'So, then, it is another time period!' was what I was thinking. The girl helped me too, her arm supporting me as we went to this Kaede person's house. The man and the boy followed behind and didn't say anything. It's didn't stay that way though. When we reached Kaede's House, which is actually a hut, Kaede came out to help me. She's really old and has an eye patch over one of her eyes. I was taken inside the hut and laid down onto the ground. She looked at my ankle and said nothing. Then she started studying my face. She told the others to leave so we could talk privately. This is where it gets really weird.

"Why do you so closely resemble Kikyo? Kagome is the reincarnation of my deceased sister, yet you still have an uncanny likeness."

"Well, you see, I'm actually a descendent of Kikyo. I'm not sure how that happened since Kikyo died a long time ago, but it did."

"I see. Well, you might want to know that my sister is alive again."

"Sister? You mean Kikyo? How can she be alive?"

"Her body was recreated by the witch Urasue and now survives off the souls of the dead." I wasn't sure how to react, of course. I mean, I'd never heard of such a thing before! " You might what to keep this secret since Kikyo does not have a good effect on these people. But I will help you harness the powers Kikyo has passed down to you."

So, at that moment, I was just informed my dead ancestor is alive and that I have her power and will learn to use it. Of course, I was taken aback by all this. As for not telling anyone, that was understandable.

After our little talk, I went back outside, my ankle wrapped in a bandage to help it heal. At that moment, the guy with the staff came up to me. I was a little confused, understandably.

"Excuse me, miss. But… Will you bear my child?" I bristled and blushed when he said this. Sango, the girl, looked like she was about to kill Miroku, the guy. I slapped him hard across the face, leaving a big red handprint.

" I never thought anyone but Sango would ever do that to me," He said, holding the place that I slapped. I was still a little flustered.

"Don't worry. He does that to everyone," Kagome explained to me. I just nodded, not sure what to do. A little while after, Shippo, the boy with the tail, came up to me.

"Uhm, are you from Kagome's time?" he asked.

"Uh-huh. At least, I think so.

"Wow, so what's your world like? Kagome doesn't tell me much."

"Well, it has a lot more buildings. They're big and gray and concrete. Also, there are a lot of people everywhere. There's no forest anymore except in small parts of the city where they keep all the trees."

"Wow, sounds like a scary place."

"It is. I just recently moved to Japan from the U.S."

"U…S…? Where's that?"

"The United States of America! You know, across the Atlantic Ocean. "

"There's land over there! I didn't know that!"

"Well, yeah. It's there alright."

After that I basically just spent time getting to know the peoples names. Kaede told us that I was to travel with them for a while. But I had to stay with her for a week first. I bet she's going to teach me to harness Kikyo's cool miko powers. But for right now, I must go. I'll be sure to update everything I learn!

Sincerely,

Kameko Narahashi
