Disclaimer: I do not own Inuyasha
"Where did Naraku send me?" Thoughts were running through Sesshomaru's mind. He carefully opened the door to the shrine ready to grab the tokijin if needed. To his surprise he came out to a completely different scene than expected. There were buildings everywhere, and the forest was nearly nonexistent except for a few trees including the Tree of Ages. This proved to Sesshy that he was still in the same area, but why it looked different was a mystery. His eyes moved from the tree to what appeared to be an old man sitting near a young child.
The boy was quick to notice the stranger and quickly asked, "Did you just come from the well?"
"Yes. Can you tell me where I am?"
"Your at the same place, just a different time." The old man answered confusing Sesshomaru even more. "huh?"
"The well allows people to travel between our eras, that is how my sister, Kagome, is able to come to your time."
"Did you say Kagome is your sister?"
"Yes, do you know her?"
"She travels with my hanyo brother, Inuyasha." Just the name of his brother said in his mouth was enough to make him sick.
"You must be that Sesshomaru Kagome has been talking about," the old man blurted out, " she has told us many things about you, horrible things"
"How could you hate your own brother, my sister would never do that to me"
"It is complicated, young one, and you will do well to mind your own business"
Sesshomaru barely finished his entence as he was interrupted by a voice from the shrine, "now we're threatening little children, are we?"
"Kagome, wake up", Inuyasha pleaded as Kagome lay unconscious on the floor.
Just a couple feet away, the rest of the group wasgoing over theplan. Jaken, Kaede, and Miroku were to hold the barrier open for as long as they could while Inuyasha and Kagome quickly jump through the well. From there the duo was on their own.
"We are ready when you get Kagome awake", the monk assured, hoping she would regain consciousness soon. The combined powers could hold the barrier for a short time, leaving a small window for oppurtunity.
Inuyasha,noticingthe young girl coming to, urged her to quickly jump through the well. Not knowing what was going on, Kagome hopped through the portal, followed by Inuyasha.
Coming up the other side, they didn't expect to see what had happened. A battle-damaged site where the shrine once stood. They feared they were too late.
