Welcome all. This story used to be a one shot. However I have just decided to continue it as a crossover. I hope you all like it. Please review and let me know. Also I am well aware my grammar and spelling is off so please, while I appreciate your help, be kind with me in your corrections.

Kagome stayed in her own personal hell. She continued on surviving her tormenter for centuries. Until one day she heard a voice. The jewel had taunted her with many voices before, but this one was new. Soft gentle. It felt different than the usual voices. She couldn't make out what it was saying. Quiet muttering of a half conversation. She wanted to believe it was more than just another twisted game of the jewels. So she did something she hadn't done in a long time. She softly brought her powers up to the surface. Slowly reacquainting herself with her own miko-ki. Once she felt she had control of that she flared out her powers wide. Willing it to reach out to whoever was out there.

"Please" She thought "please find me." She begged to be found daring not to wish it. Even subcociously wishing could spell disaster with the jewel.

"This is stupid" Yusuke grumbled as he picked up another artifact.

"Oh just get over it already" Kuwabara replied. The team was currently cleaning out an old artifact room at Genki's temple. Yusuke was sure this was some type of punishment from the old woman. Really how was it his fault the boar demon they were fighting was even more reckless then he was.

"If you would have just had better aim we wouldn't be in this mess." That was it Yusuke snapped and the two were at it again.

Kurama Sighed as he moved to the other side of the room. Better to let those two fight it out for now. As long as they didn't break anything in the process. Moving over to a shelf something caught his eye. Having grown up with a fox demon he could not help himself as he picked up and studied the small pink jewel.

"Careful fox." Hiei warned.

Kurama held back a smirk "just looking Hiei."

"Yes, well while you're just looking something might happen." His warning was valid. A lot of these artifacts could very well be cursed. Still while he admired the jewel he could not help but feel it had some sort of importance. "It really is very pretty."

Hiei had another smart remark on his lips but before he could reply a warm but hesitant energy washed over him. Kurama almost dropped the jewel in surprise but managed to keep hold on it. As he stared at it in curiosity and wonder. Even the two blockheads had felt it as they stopped their squabbling and came over. The whole team was focused on the jewel as they heard a faint mumbling. It sounded female and the tone was desperate.

"Anyone get that?" Yusuke asked

"No, it's too quiet." Kurama comments

"hn"

"What are you guys talking about" Kuwabara was looking at the guys like they had lost their minds "She was perfectly clear." Kurama put it together first. Hiei was not far behind. Sadly Yusuke was lost.

"What do you mean she was practically whispering?"

Kurama decided to explain before the two started a verbal war again. "Kuwabara is more in tune with spirits then we are that could be why he can hear our mystery woman better than we can." He turned and handed the jewel to him. "Here why don't you try talking to her?"

Kuwabara took the jewel and looked at it for a minute before asking "Hey, what's your name?"

Kagome continued to plead silently as her voice mumbled presumably to someone else. She was shocked and jumped slightly when a clear voice asked for her name. A mixture of emotions washed over her as she answered.

"Kagome, my name is Kagome. "She almost cried for joy to be talking to someone after so long.

"Kagome," the voice repeated. "Where are you?" Kagome saddened at the reminder.

"Inside the jewel."

"No way! "Kuwabara shouted "How long have you been there. Kagome tried to answer but did not know what to tell him. Time had been lost to her she thought on it then replied.

"I don't know. Since the warring states era."

"What's she saying" Hiei did not like being left out of the conversation. The rest of the team was looking like they were also curious as to what was being said. Kuwabara felt so sorry for Kagome. He looked back at his team sadly retelling them what Kagome had said. "Her names Kagome. She's been trapped inside this jewel since the warring states era."

Kurama quickly did the math in his head. "She has been there for just over five hundred years.
