Title: Thrown into darkness (Work in progress)
Writer: Shaun Witt
We open up with Inuyasha running through the woods as fast as he could carrying Kagome on his back. Right behind them were a swarm of demons that were trying to kill them. But with a little luck they had made it back safely to the well.
In Kagome's time.
"How can we be sure the information is correct?" A young human female asked.
"If what he said was true, then they should come out of that well at anytime." A male voice replied.
"But what if he was off on the time table?" She asked.
"Then we wait. Why don't you go in there and wait for them." He replied.
"As long as your out here watching for trouble." Reena replied.
Reena went into the abandoned well house, to wait for two key people who could bring back the light in a world that had been dark for a long time. Kit himself found a spot well hidden where he could keep an eye on things.
Hours went by with no sign that they were going to appear. Reena began to believe the information they had gotten may have been wrong. She went to take a peek outside of the well house to see if kit was still there, when out of the well popped a half demon caring a human female.
"Who are you and what are you doing in Kagome's well house?" Inuyasha asked.
"You must be Inuyasha. My nameis Reena andI am a priestess sent here to get you and Kagome to safety." Reena replied.
"InuyashaI sense a complete Shikon jewel just outside the well house." Kagome whispered as she finally started to come to.
Bursting into the well House Kit yells out, "We have trouble. Naraku's Demons are on there way here right now"
"Did he say Naraku?" Inuyasha asked in shock.
"If you want to get out of here alive,I suggest we get moving right now!" Kit yelled.
"What is going on here?" Kagome asked.
"No time to explain. Right now we need to go." Reena replied.
The four of them quickly exited the well house. Kagome was shocked to see her town destroyed and in ruins. She could fell the dark demons Auras all around her and could sense the large group of demons heading their way.
Reena quickly lead them away from the well house as Kit stayed behind to deal with the well itself. Placing a small explosive device inside the well and setting it off, he managed to collapse it in case Naraku ever tried to use it.
After making it into town, Kit found a safe place where they could rest. They went inside of an old building with it's windows borded up. Reena found an old couch were Inuyash could place kagome down.
"We should be safe for a while in here. Get some rest while you can." Kit told them.
"Can you tell us what is going on and where is my family?" Kagome asked.
Reena began her reply, "Your mother, brother and grandfather are fine back at our base of operation"
"What is going on and how is Naraku involved?" Kagome asked.
"And why is that kitsune giving us orders?" Asked a rather grumpy Inuyasha.
"Please let me explain things first." Reena said and then added, "Soon after you two vanished from the past, Naraku put a plan into action where he would take over the entire world and waited his time to capture you and the last two shards of the first Shikon jewel. What he did not count on was a rebellion starting up and fighting back so people could once again, be free."
"What do you mean the first Shikon jewel and why does the person you call Kit have one?" Kagome asked.
"I wishI could tell you about how he got his jewel butI just don't know. AllI can tell you is that Naraku had a small group of demons work on making copies of the Shikon Jewel to give to his generals, who run different parts of the world. Kit had gotten his jewel from one such Jewel maker after killing him." Reena replied.
"Who is running the rebel groups then?" Inuyasha asked.
"You should know him well enough." Kit said as he checked in on them, "He is your brother after all."
"Sesshoumaru leads the rebels?" Asked Inuyasha.
"Correct. You will also fine many of your old friends from the past back at our base"
Reena added.
"Who would they be?" Kagome asked.
"Some you already know. Koga is alive and well and leads the wolf pack. Shippo is alive and helps trains our Kitsunes. Miyoga and Kilala are the only other ones left alive from Inuyasha's time." Kit replied.
"What happened to Miroku and Sango?" Kagome asked.
"Miroku died shortly after you left when his Wind tunnel ripped opened and sucked him inside. Sango managed to live a another couple of years before being caught and then killed." Reena then added, "But they have been reborn and seem to remember parts of there past. Kilala once again protects Sango"
"It seems to have quieted down outside. I'm going to go have a look around and if it is all clear then we have to get moving." Kit said.
Kagome's stomach growled a bit to show she was hungry and Reena smiled and asked, "Are you hungry? We have some stuff with us you can eat."
Reena pulled out some smoked meat and bread for them to eat and some bottled water for them to drink. "Sorry it is not much but we had to travel light so we could move quicker."
Kagome didn't care, for her the food she was offered was enough. Soon after having her fill Kit reappeared and said it was time they got moving. Kagome was excited in seeing her family again but Inuyasha still did not trust these strangers all to well.
