A/N: Miyako's face markings will be on my profile.

Chapter 3:

(In feudal Japan)

"SIT SIT SIT!" Kagome screeched in anger as Inuyasha was slammed into the ground creating a crater. How dare Inuyasha try to stop her from going home again. All she needs is 3 or 4 days to restock supplies and get some studying done, but as usual the hanyou was throwing a fit. Off to the side the rest of the group looked on with blank faces all thinking the same thing He's such an idiot.

Kagome had to go home. Her mom specifically asked her to be there when their guest arrived. Kagome of course had no idea who this special guest was that had her mom in such a happy daze, but she didn't really care. It had been so long since she'd seen her mom that happy. Kagome knew her mom was constantly worried about her when she was in feudal Japan, not that she blamed her of course. She couldn't disappoint her now and she refused to let Inuyasha be the reason why her mom was upset. Sighing she looked over to the rest of her friends, a smile resting on her face before saying "I'll be back in about 3 or 4 days. I'll bring a nice treat back for everyone."

Walking over to the well and looking back over her shoulder at Inuyasha, who was still laying in his crater with swirls in his eyes, she heaved herself over the edge of the well and dropped herself in. A bright blue light engulfed her form, her body disappearing along with it.

(Modern Japan, 2017)

Miyako's POV:

My youkai flared when I felt a disturbance on the shrine. Looking out the window, I took note of the sun just beginning to rise. Sighing I sat up and expanded my youkai, brushing against something very powerful and then another something, no, someone that was very pure. My instincts didn't feel a threat and so I relaxed my body slightly, my acute hearing picking up the sound of footsteps running toward the house. I heard the front door be thrown open along with a scream from what sounded like a teenage girl.

"MOM I'M HOME! MOM I FEEL SOMETHING WEIRD HERE IS EVERYONE ALRIGHT?!" the teenager was screaming through the house. Jeez. This must be Kagome I thought sweat dropping. Doesn't she realize what time it is? Humans are usually still sleeping now. Why is she awake? And what connection does she have to that powerful burst I felt earlier? I heard her footsteps clomping up the stairs before the door to the bedroom was flung open as she sighed throwing her backpack on the ground. This girl has strong spiritual energy mixed with another powerful energy that seems to be coming from around her neck. Whatever it is I want nothing to do with it. It feels false to me. I'm surprised she hasn't sensed me yet; even if I have covered my aura and scent, how has she not noticed me yet? She should at least note another being in the same room as her, unless her spiritually energy is that untrained along with her instincts. She flicked the light on, making me blink my eyes from the sudden change, and looked towards her bed. Finally, I thought. She let out a little yelp, throwing her hand over her heart. I could hear the erratic thumping and suppressed a smirk.

"Oh my god! I'm so sorry! I had no idea you were here! Oh, yes! I'm Kagome, but you probably already knew that" she prattled off in rapid succession as she stared at my hair. I lifted my eyebrows before nodding back. Her eyes caught mine and they I could practically see the questions floating through her brain.

"I had a suspicion you were Minori's daughter when you came in the house screaming 'Mom'. I'm Miyako" I teased and introduced myself. Kagome's cheeks flushed a bright red.

"I'm very sorry! I didn't mean to wake you" Kagome practically yelled out her apology. All her yelling was hurting my sensitive ears. I may be used to loud noises from being in this era so long, but if I'm in close proximity it's still annoyingly loud.

"It's fine, really. Just please stop yelling." I said with a small chuckle. Suddenly my nose twitched. How did I not notice this smell on her? Could my mind be playing tricks on me? I stood up from the bed and walked over to Kagome. Her cheeks reddened when she took in my outfit, a silky camisole and a black lacey thong, but I paid it no mind. I took a large sniff and lifted my eyebrows again. A dog demon? I took another sniff, no a hanyou dog demon. Not that I personally have anything against half demons anymore. Just another thing that's changed about me in the last 100 years.

Knowing Kagome knew more than she was letting on I asked "Kagome, why do you smell like a hanyou dog demon?" Her eyes practically popped out of her head.

"Whaaaa?" She asked her mouth dropping open. I figured I'd cut her a break.

"We should wake Minori." I said moving out into the hallway and walking towards Minori's room.

"Wait! How do you know about that? How can you smell me? And please put on some clothes!" Kagome fired off while following me.

"You'll know more in a few minutes." I said knocking on Minori's door. "Minori! We need to talk to Kagome. Now. We'll be downstairs" I said through the door. Turning to Kagome I gestured towards the steps. "I'll be down in a minute. I'm going to throw on some clothes." Kagome nodded and mumbled "finally" under her breathe. "I can hear you, you know." I said before walking back into her room.

I came downstairs dressed in black yoga pants and a PINK brand t-shirt. Kagome had started making breakfast so I sat at the table. Minori came into the kitchen yawning and she threw a quick thanks to Kagome for making breakfast before sitting at the table with me. I looked at her at her before asking "So I'm assuming Kagome was not really at a friend's house?"

"I'm sorry Miyako, we were going to tell you about Kagome's whereabouts when she came back. The same time we were going to tell her about you." Minori said softly. I took a deep breath before exhaling.

"I'm not angry Minori, I just need to know what's going on" I said looking between her and Kagome.

"Well" Minori started out, "it all started on Kagome's 15th birthday..."

~Time Skip~

After hearing the tale of Kagome falling down the well and meeting a half demon named Inuyasha, everything made more sense. Kagome looked at me confused before asking "So how were you able to smell me?"

"You've been traveling through feudal Japan with a hanyou and encountering other demons, but you can't figure out why or how I can smell you?" I asked mischievously with a small smile on my face and my eyebrows raised.

"Well I would assume you were a demon or have some demon blood in you, but I can't sense anything from you. It's weird." Kagome said squinting her eyes at me.

"That's because I'm concealing my aura. I learned when I first came here how to conceal myself as it was best that way." I said before dropping my concealment on my features. My ears were once again pointy and all my markings reappeared. Kagome stared with her mouth agape at me.

"I didn't even know you could do that!" She exclaimed before getting up to get a closer look.

"Not every demon can. Only those powerful enough and those who have mastered it can conceal it for large amounts of time. However, we can't do anything about our hair or eyes." I explained letting her get a full look at me. She sat back down in her chair looking dazed.

Kagome's eyebrows pulled together before saying "I always thought that there were no demons in this time."

"From my few, and I mean few, encounters there aren't many left. I'm not even originally from this time. I also come from feudal Japan, but I had no way of getting back. However, I'm sure this is no coincidence that when I come back to Japan I find out about a time traveling well." I said looking between Minori and Kagome. Kagome flicks her eyes to me as a look of understanding passes through her eyes.

"You wish to try and use the well to go back to your time. How long have you been stuck here?" She asks looking at me with sympathy.

"While I do wish to go home, I have a feeling I'm needed with helping you collect the jewel shards and kill this Naraku guy" I said hissing his name with a sneer on my face. My instincts are telling me this guy is bad news.

"I don't want you risking your life" Kagome says placing a hand on mine.

"I understand, but I'm not asking you for permission to come along. If the well allows me through I will be joining you. Don't worry I can take care of myself." I said with a small smile. This girl has a pure heart. Good, she'll need it with the times ahead of her. I decided to tell her a little more about myself before we must travel together.

One Hour Later ~

"Wow, I had no idea. How come you didn't tell me when all this first happened?" Kagome asked looking at Minori with a slight pout.

"It was not the right time." Is all Minori said.

I looked between the two women before nodding at them and standing up. "You guys seem like you have a lot to talk about. I'm going to get my stuff gathered and change my clothes. I would like to be prepared before we leave." I said leaving the room. I had to make sure everything I needed was packed. There's no way I have any clothing that would fit in with what I could remember of the feudal era. Oh well I'll just have to wing it. I pulled out my iPod and iPhone along with my solar powered docking station. I bought this a few months ago in case anything happened and I couldn't use a charging port. Looks like it will really come in handy for times ahead. As much as the feudal era was my home, I have now been spoiled by modern technology and there's no way I'm leaving here without my two devices. All my precious music is on there.

Deciding to get dressed, I started pulling out the clothes I wanted to wear. A high waisted short red skirt, a long sleeved light pink top with darker pink flower pattern, the design resembled a kimono with a black sash across it. I picked up a sash the same color and pattern as my shirt and tied it around my skirt. I pulled on a pair of thigh high black stockings and black knee high boots. My white coat with blue trimming was thrown in my black backpack along with my charging dock and iPod. Walking over on another box I pulled out my throwing knives before strapping them around my right thigh. Next I brought out my 2 daggers and strapped those on my left thigh. Next I walked over to a nicely polished wooden box and pulled out a white cat mask with red designs. I tied the mask to the strap of Yoarashi. Lastly, I strapped Yoarashi to my back.

I looked around deciding what else I wanted to take with me. Grabbing an extra bra and a handful of underwear, I shoved them in my bag. Then remembering that the feudal era is lacking in hygiene I threw my delicious smelling Winter Candy Apple body wash and lotion, 3 bottles of each because you never know, in my backpack. One might think the smell is overpowering for my nose, but I've become used to such things after living in modern times. I grabbed 2 bottles of shampoo and conditioner and threw them in the backpack as well. While demons don't really need lotion for soft skin or conditioner for soft, silky hair, I still spoil myself a little with them.

Catching myself in the mirror I turn to fully look at my outfit. I know for a fact this is not going to blend in there, but there's little I can do about it. Plus, demons don't really care about the length of our clothes like the humans do. However, this is still much shorter than the kimono I used to wear, but it will do. My bright purple eyes stared back at me while my long purple silvery hair shifted with me. Running a hand threw my hair, a habit I developed here, I looked at my markings that graced my face. I was once from a proud clan that ruled the Northern lands and my markings proved my lineage. I wonder if my parents still rule the Northern lands or if my clan is alive at all. I wonder what year in the feudal era I left during. I know the likely hood of returning to the same year through the well is slim to none. I trace my markings on my face as a small frown pulls at my lips.

I shake my head. I've already accepted that I might never see my family again. Blinking away the tears I straighten up. I've become soft since arriving in this era. I remember a time when I despised humans and thought them worthless. A time when I didn't show any emotion at all, not even when I was alone. However, I don't look at becoming soft and showing emotions as a weakness anymore. The people here taught me that not everything is black and white.

Concealing my marks and ears once more, I walked down stairs with my backpack slung over one shoulder and my phone in one hand. I decided to play human for a little while and see how long Kagome's friends take to figure out the fact that I'm not a human. When I get downstairs I see Kagome already packed up again.

"Wow that was quick" I remark while setting my bag down on the floor. Kagome looks over at me before raising her eyebrows.

"Where's your markings?" She asks looking confused.

"I decided to play human for a while until your friends can figure it out." A mischievous sparkle in my eyes when I explain my reasoning. Cats are notorious for their curiosity, but we can also be very mischievous.

"I didn't even know you were a demon when I got here so I wouldn't be placing bets on them finding out soon." She said while sweat dropping. I shrug not really caring. She looked at me before fidgeting with her skirt nervously. Before asking "Um, would it be okay if I bathed before we leave?"

I snickered a bit before replying "Yes. I know how the feudal era is. Please enjoy a relaxing bath before we head out. I'll just wait here for you." She nodded her thanks before running upstairs. I settled on the couch and closed my eyes. I didn't need the rest, but who knows the next time I'll be able to sleep?

A/N: I wanted to thank all the people who have followed this so far! Also thank you to everyone who has read this so far, even if you haven't followed!
