Disclaimer: I do not own InuYasha or any of the characters from InuYasha. I am simply borrowing them for the sake of my fan-fiction. I do own Tairoru I guess cause she is me. . I'm very happy to be writing this fan-fiction and I hope that you enjoy it.

Feudal Era

Tai was in the middle of getting ready to fight a demon before someone else "stole" her battle. This someone else had successfully defeated the demon terrorizing the village and saved the day (A/N: YAAAAY! Lol I couldn't help it ;). But unexpectedly, a poisonous purple miasma exploded from the demon corpse killing anything in its path. Tai didn't have time to get away before the miasma engulfed and surrounded her. Before it was too late, the "someone else" who had come and defeated the demon, picked up the now unconscious Tai, and taken her off to safety before she could take in anymore of the deadly miasma.

Several Hours Later Inside Kaede's Hut

Tai is now awakening and is greeted by a "not so young" fox demon…(A/N: wonder who that is )

"Kagome! Kagome! She's waking up!" Shippo yells in excitement.

"Oh my head…" says Tai now just awakening from her unconscious state.

A young girl who didn't look much older than 15, entered the room with the small fox demon following closely behind.

"What's up Shippo?" –sees that Tai is awake- "Oh! Hello there. How are you feeling? Heard that you took in quite a lot of the miasma…I gave you some medicine so I hope that you're feeling better." said a concerned but mostly happy Kagome. "Oh…By the way, my name is Kagome Higurashi."

"AND IM SHIPPO! THE FOX DEMON! What's your name? Huh, huh, huh?" said a now excited Shippo.

Well he's…annoyingly hyper ; thought Tai. "Uh...the name's Tairoru…Tai for short. It's nice to meet you both. I appreciate the help but I don't think I needed it in the first place…so I better get going now…" said Tai as she tried to stand up but unknowing, found out that her legs were numb from the knee and down. "What the…I cant move my-" Tai started to feel a bit dizzy and fell back. "Whoa…that was weird…"

"You had better be careful! Even though I gave you medicine the affects of the miasma are still there. You had better rest for a while," Kagome said while putting a moist cloth on Tai's forehead the walking out the hut. That attitude seemed a bit familiar…;Thought Kagome.

"I hope you feel better Tai! We'll come back later to check on you!" said Shippo walking out the hut behind Kagome.

I so don't have time for this…stupid miasma…stupid demon…though Tai. But…I wonder who was that bastard who stole MY fight. When I find them they are so gunna PAY! Thought Tai triumphantly in anger. "But first…how the hell do I get outta here…I cant walk . so maybe…I can crawl!"

So Tai decided to test out her idea and it worked! For the time being, Tai could crawl (at least until the affects of the miasma had worn off). She had made her way outside getting past Kagome and Shippo who were picking herbs not too far away, and to the nearby path in the woods that lead to the Goshinboku Tree (A/N: I'm not so sure about the goshinboku thing so gimme a break if its wrong ;).

"Heh, heh, heh…sorry to leave so soon but I got things to do and people to see…" Tai mumbled under her breathe while looking behind her."

Tai was halfway down the path by this time and when she turned to face forward, she bumped her head into something.

"Ouch!" she said while rubbing her head "that hurt! What the-" Tai said as she looked up and discovered a man wearing a red kimono suit with...dog ears?

"Where do you think you're going?" said the man with the dog-ears. "Hmn…hey wait a minute! You're the girl who was in the miasma earlier!" The "dog man" looks at her and notices her tail and ears. "Hey you're a demon!" He backs up and then starts to draw his sword. "What were you doing so close to the village? Planning on slaying some HUMANS were you? Or were you helping your demon brothering? Are you another one of Naraku's incarnations? Explain yourself now before you taste the power of my Tetsusaiga!"

Kagome now comes and joins Tai and "the dog man"

"TAI! I was looking all over for you! You shouldn't be out here!" Kagome now helps Tai stand up since she can't stand up yet and notices that the "dog man" was standing there.

"InuYasha! What are you doing! Put your sword away you're being very rude!" Kagome yelled to InuYasha.

"But KAGOME! She's a DEMON!" InuYasha yelled to Kagome.

"INUYASHA! OSUWARIIIIII!" Kagome yelled. And if you didn't know, when Kagome yells this word, it sends InuYasha slamming to the ground.

SLAM

Tai watching this just couldn't help but laugh, "HAHAHAHAHA! WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH YOU! HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!"

"It's the power of Kaede's rosary…whenever I use that word I just said, InuYasha goes slamming to the ground." Kagome said cheerily.

"Wait…his name" Tai points to InuYasha, "Is InuYasha?" Tai felt an overwhelming amount of joy and excitement. She had finally found what she was searching for! Or at least half of what she was searching for. "I can't believe it! I've finally you!" Tai says with water building in her eyes.

"Huh? What are you talking about?" InuYasha asked questioningly while still collecting himself off the dirt path from Kagome's sit command, "You've been searching for me? But why?"

"Yea…what would you want with InuYasha?" Kagome asked.

"Because…" Tai says still excited and begins to slowly walk toward InuYasha (since by this time, the affect of the miasma had almost completely worn off)

"Because…Inuyasha…you're m-my…my-" Tai then faints and falls forward him from the stress she had put her body through the past several hours.

InuYasha runs forward and catches Tai right before she falls on the ground. "Your what…? I wonder what she was going to say…"

"Think it's important?" Kagome asks.

"Well looking at the reaction, it seems so. But we still don't know what she's all about…she could be one of Naraku's reincarnations." InuYasha replied.

"Or maybe she's just a demon passing through the village with no intent to do anything harmful. I mean come on InuYasha…if she wanted to destroy the village don't you think she would have done it already?" says Kagome.

"Hmn…good point…" InuYasha picks up the unconscious Tai (A/N: seem familiar?) and carriers her off into the village. "But we might want to keep an eye on her just in case…demons aren't the loyal trustworthy type ya' know

So InuYasha with Tai in his arms heads off into the village with Kagome debating on what to do with Tai and weather or not she's trustworthy.
