Chapter One: The Dreams

She was falling. Falling into the dark, black, emptiness of her family shrine's well. Yet, somehow, she got the feeling that something big was awaiting her. Something important. Something that would change her life forever.


Kagome grumbled all through her breakfast. Those dreams, again! That was the third time this week! They seemed to be getting more frequent ever since her 15th birthday…

"Kagome, honey, what's wrong? You're not eating your cereal. It's your favorite, Lucky Charms!" her mom said, worried.

Kagome forced a smile. "Everything's fine, Mom. I'm just…tired, that's all." In the distance, a bus could be heard. "There's the bus, bye Mom!" Hurriedly, Kagome ran down the front steps of her house and to the bus stop just in time.

Immediately, she started searching for her friend, Sango. The two had been best friends since pre-school. It is rare that you would find one without the other.

"Sango, I had that same dream, again! That's the third time!" Kagome sighed, exhausted beyond belief.

"You mean you were falling through that well? Again? Kagome, we need to tell someone about these dreams of yours! Loss of sleep could affect your health! This is serious!" Sango stated, trying to hide her worry and failing.

"Sango, I don't need to tell anyone! And you promised you wouldn't tell, either! I'm sure these dreams will pass, sometime, and I'm not going to burden anyone else with them! It's bad enough that you have to worry about me! I'm just going to be a load if I tell anyone!" Kagome said, making her voice firm, despite lack of sleep.

Sango refused to give up. "Kagome, your grades have dropped at least a letter grade since Monday. We need to tell someone."

"We don't," Kagome replied, "Do you think that it has something to do with my being 15?"

Her friend snorted. "I doubt it. Tomorrow is my 16th birthday and I didn't have any freaky dreams, yet."

Kagome sighed. "Yeah, I guess I'm just jumping to conclusions."

The two were silent for the rest of the bus ride.

Entering the school, Sango said, "Kagome, just please consider telling your mom, okay? She could help, I'm serious! Just consider it."

Smiling, Kagome answered, "Okay, I'llkeepit in mind."

Thinking it time to change the subject, Sango gave her a small smirk. "Hey, you know that guy you like? Inuyasha, or whatever? The rumors say that Kikyo started flirting with him and-"

"HOW COULD YOU, INUYASHA? SIT!" Kagome yelled, all of a sudden, then ran off, sobbing.

"Sit?" Sango repeated, confused. "Kagome, please come back! I wasn't trying to hurt you! Kagome!"


In another area of the school, surrounded by his friends, a 17-year-old boy suddenly fell to the ground.

"OUCH!"
