Chapter 1

"Where am I," Kagome mindlessly stated, right after she woke up. All she remembered was fighting Naraku, her hitting the well with the arrow, and the bright light. She found herself sleeping on the ground. Kagome decided to get up of the ground, taking her bow with her. Taking a look around she only seen grassland, as far as she could see. No village, no people, nothing.

Other than the person who was laying down ten feet away from her. At first glance he looked human, but Kagome soon realized it was a demon. Kagome reached for an arrow, and prepared herself for a fight, for it was clearly evident that he was about to be awakened in the next couple of seconds. Kagome seen something on him that scared the daylights out of her. His sword, the one Inuyasha and Sesshoumaru fought together against. The Sounga.

Kagome knew if it came down to a real battle she would lose. Her powers were no where near enough to even be able to slow him down. Though she looked closer and she seen numerous wounds. The only reason she didn't open fire on him even though he was asleep is because it is a dog demon. And even then. she didn't let her defences down.

He got up, he looked at her, and made no aggressive movement, whatsoever. No defensive stance, no reaching for his sword, nothing that could be interpreted as expecting a fight.

"I'm not looking for a fight".

"Then why do you have the Sounga"

"You know what this sword is?"

"I was there when the sword was sent to hell"

"Then if you witnessed what I did after the battle you should know who I am"

"It could of switched hands, prove it"

"Inuyasha's scent is all over you, and by the looks of it, you have mated with him"

Kagome lowered her bow, though kept it ready, "Go on, continue"

"Inuyasha has a half brother who is a full demon that goes by the name of Sesshoumaru"

"Who are you, and how do you know all of that?"

"I am Inuyasha's and Sesshoumaru's father, Inutashio"

"How? Aren't you supposed to be dead?"

"How am I not dead? I cannot say".

Kagome placed the arrow back, and placed her bow over her shoulder, "So what do we do know?"

"The first thing we do is find Inuyasha" Inutashio answered, "For ..." Inutashio stopped, he turned to his right, and waited.

"What's wrong?" Kagome asked.

"A large number of humans are heading this way," Inutashio answered.

It didn't take long, and they came. They definitely were cavalry, and did not look like they were friendly, Inutashio drew his sword, and Kagome drew her bow. And they waited for the cavalry to choose if they want to fight, or if they want to talk. They got close, headed directly towards them, though they were slowing down. And eventually surrounded them. They lowered their spears, and remained there.

"What are you doing here?" came the question from one of the soldiers.

"We don't know," Inutashio replied, "When, where, or why we are here".

"Why do you have those streaks?" he asked.

"I am a demon," Inutashio answered. Which caused a little aggressive movement. "I mean no harm, provided you don't either".

"The same can be said to you," he said. Though his voice was clearly cautious, "I think you..."

"Quiet," Inutashio quickly said, "I can smell a large group of foul smelling creatures coming". Which caused the entire force to form ranks when they creatures came into sight. The force had to be bigger than the cavalry force that had already met. To it looked just like the creatures, what ever they were, were mounted, and they were not riding horses. They looked and smelled like a larger, more violent version of wolves. Possibly with a little demonic power.

"Stay here," Inutashio ordered Kagome, "Stay out of the conflict as much as possible".

Both sides had already charged, and Inutashio caught up, and joined the humans in the battle. Though Inutashio was having little problems killing them off. The human cavalry force were having problems. Their horses were scared, and limiting the power of their riders. All Inutashio could do was keep doing what he was doing.

The battle ended, quickly after it started. And the human force was reduced to half it's strength. Would of been it a slaughter if he wasn't there. He then made his way to the soldier he was talking to earlier, before the battle.

"I guess I owe you my thanks," he said.

"I don't think we have exchanged names," Inutashio answered, "I'm Inutashio, the girl that I beside me was..., I don't think she had told me her name".

"I am Prince Elfwine," he replied, "A captain of Rohan".

"Rohan," Inutashio stated, "I assume that this is a country in this world".

"Yeah…," Elfwine responded, "If you excuse me, I have my duties to attend to for a moment. I would like to continue our conversation later if possible".

"Sure," Inutashio replied.

Elfwine left and made orders to burn the creatures bodies, help the wounded, collect the dead human soldiers, and to prepare to bring for a proper burial (sp?). And after they were all those task were completed Elfwine ordered to make camp and they would leave in the morning. Inutashio went back to Kagome during that time, and they were asked to just merely to stand watch. After all Inutashio was the reason they survived.

"Where do you think we are?" Kagome asked.

"Their captain said something about being in Rohan," Inutashio responded, "I do not think we are in a different world".

"A different world?" Kagome stated loudly, "How's that possible?"

"I don't know," Inutashio answered, "What is the last thing you remember about just before it happened".

"We where battling Naraku," Kagome said, "I fired an arrow at him and somehow missed him and hit the well".

"The well," Inutashio stated, "Was there anything special about it?"

"I'm from a different era than you and Inuyasha," Kagome answered, "About five hundred years into the future. The well somehow allows me and Inuyasha to travel in between".

"A tree of ages," Inutashio stated, "They are rather mysterious and extremely powerful. You have the powers of a priestess do you not?"

"Yeah," Kagome answered, "What's your point?"

"With your purification powers, and all of the demonic energy flowing around the well," Inutashio explained, "It shouldn't be surprising that the well did something like this. Possibly as a defence mechanism against something that could manipulate it".

"I guess that make sense," Kagome muttered.

"I guess I should learn the name of son's mate," Inutashio answered.

"Kagome Higurashi, umm… father," Kagome answered.
