Chiestuka sighed she had just about enough of being around her uncle Inuyasha's in-law's family. Kagome's mom was nice and all, but at times she just was boring or too much she didn't have the right blend like her mom. Souta was always in his room or out with friends and gramps has just been boring her with shrine stories. She loved history, but only liked history with Demons and humans being in love, or at war. The stories Gramps talked about was like how some jar had come from some monk that found it by some tree.

'Yeah… Real interesting.'

She sighed sitting on a root of the scared tree that had grown above the ground, just enough to be a tiny bench. Her little gold eyes searched at sky trying to figure out what shapes the clouds were making, she spoke aloud "When will mommy get home? It's been like two months! Surely she must be done training by now!" No one was around so she knew she wouldn't get an answer, but she still spoke it. She hadn't been sleeping in much instead she had been renting audio books about legends of the feudal era and books on what life was like back then. She had been gaining knowledge so she would fit right in once her and her mom returned.

Chiestuka's little white ears twitched on her head hearing a creaking sound, she turned her head to source of the creaking. The source was an old wooden door to one of the building that was hardly used at all, the once who opened the door held a box in his hands and was going to the shop building. Chiestuka hopped down from her bench and dusted off the back of her kimono. It was still a bit chilly, and it was close to the holiday where girls make chocolates for boys. Souta asked her if she was going to give him some, he seemed to love teasing her. But she didn't really like it, it just made her annoyed. He then bragged about how his girlfriend was going to make him a bunch.

Chiestuka walk into her house to get small fur scarf. She hadn't been wearing it, because she thought being a demon would make her be tolerant of the weather. However her mommy told her that she was still a child, demon or not and so she would get cold all the same. The fur she picked was white, it was her favorite. She looked in the mirror to see if she approved of her attire, she wore a white kimono with light brown branches with cherry blossoms on them and tiny palaces mixed in with the flowers. It was a pattern custom made it was made for her birthday, Rin wanted her to have a few custom patterns with her clothing. After all Chiestuka is a princess and she should still be treated like one, even if she never saw her father's palace or met any other nobles.

She made her way back outside to the tree where she was just sitting, she sat on the root kicking her feet back and forth as she thought about the other world. She saw gramps rush pass her, he seemed to be going to the storage house. She saw his back as he walked quickly to the store house with two small boxes in his arms. He then rushed by her again with a single large box. He repeated this making three more trips, Chiestuka just sat there and stared her. Each time he passed her head whipped following each of his movements.

Curiosity getting a its firm grip on her as she saw him go back into the shop. She jumped off of the root she sat on and walked to the open doorway, inside she saw Gramps was dusting and organizing the shop. He huffed and nodded pleased with himself then turned around to leave the shop as he did he saw the little demon girl and smiled.

"Gramps what are you doing?"

"Child today is a very important day! Hasn't anyone told you?!"

The little icy haired girl tilted her head a fraction and though about if anyone has said anything. However nothing came to mind so she shook her head, "Nope." The old wrinkled shrine owner took in a deep breath and raised his voice cheerfully "Child today happens to be the day Yamanaka Elementary visits the shrine. It is a school trip for the fifth year and they are coming here to learn about our shrine. So be polite and please cover your demon features."

She sighed and pouted, the old man sighed and walked towards her "Child quickly they shall arrive in a mere ten minutes." Chiestuka had nearly had it, she glared at him and bit the inside of her lip. The old man glared and tapped his foot on the old wooden floor that was clean without a speck of dust, he frowned "Hurry child, you must look human. If you do not wish to hide yourself then stay in the house."

"I do not wish to do either!"

The old man jumped at the young child's yelling at him, he stumbled back but then stood tall and glared down at her "Don't raise your voice, it isn't proper of a child to yell at an adult. Especially a princess like yourself." This shocked her she knew that the Higurashi's were told who her father was and what he was, he was a demon lord and Inuyasha's half-brother.

"Princess?"

"Yes. Now please go and do as I asked."

"I don't want to!"

"Why? You did it for your mother." The old man huffed and responded in a firm voice.

"I don't want to hide anymore, I don't want to be ashamed of what I am! I feel if I hide I'm showing that I'm ashamed… Humans are lowly creatures, and are really cruel! They call demons monsters in lots of picture books! But Humans are the ones that are monsters… if you are not what they see as normal then you are bullied."

He pondered on how to get his point across in a manner she might understand; however she spoke as if she were much older. The old man wondered to himself 'When did she become so knowledgeable?' He assumed that it was her demon mind being able to figure things out quicker or to mature quicker, after all humans and demons are different.

"That is why you must cover yourself, so they don't bully you. Besides if you don't what if a priest or something sees you and knows that you are the real thing? You could be killed! We ask you to hide yourself so you are safe. Think about it soon you will be on the other side and won't have to hide… But for now please hide your demon traits." She looked at him as her lip quivered and screamed loud "I HATE IT HERE! I HATE HUMANS! I HATE THIS SHRINE! AND I HATE YOU!" She quickly turned on her heel and ran off ignoring the old man trying to catch her. However he didn't make more than a few steps before she made it to her own house, she had incredible demonic speed on her side. She threw open the door and shut it as quick as she could and locked it behind her.

Chiestuka stood in the entry way and stared at her feet she began to shake as tears fell from her eyes, hitting the floor. She fell to the ground and crouched into a ball and cried she rocked on her the balls of her feet as her knees hid her eyes. She cried her heart breaking 'Why do I have to act like a human?! I'm so much better than them! I'll live a long long lllllllooooonnnnnnng life, I have powers, I'm so much better. So why… why must I hide it all? Why can't I be me?'

She walked over and decided that she didn't want to stay cooped up in her house afterall its lonely without mommy. She Everyone looks at mommy and think she is weird because of how she dresses when everyone else dresses like uncle Souta and his girlfriend. Mommy looks pretty and she is so cool, but people don't see that. They look at her with disgust or pity just because she is my mommy and because she is young.'

She walked over to her where the makeup was put away and dragged it out she poured the liquid in her hands glaring at it as she covered one side of her face. Watching it hide her two maroon markings, she loved them. They were pretty the top stretched to where her pupil was and then curved downward, and the stripe under it stretched half the distance curving up. Her blue crescent moon was also covered she looked at the side that looked human and then her demon markings that were uncovered on the other side.

'Hate it here, everyone treats us like we don't belong and that's because we don't!'

She got up after she had covered the rest of her face in the liquid cover up, she frowned looking at her reflection in the mirror 'Lying. This is lying… lying about what I am.' Going to the closet she pulled out a wig that gramps had bought her about a week after her mother had left, people started talking about how even with the cover up she looked odd. She was very young and had a unnatural hair color, it wasn't normal nor likely for people to believe she dyed it. As young as she is that wouldn't be believable, so she had a black wig. She was taught how to put it on and had worn it quite a lot almost all the time, it seemed gramps was having it wear it whenever he could find the excuse. He was a priest and a shrine owner, perhaps he didn't like to think about a demon living near him. That's what Chiestuka thought, he did it so he wouldn't have to see her as a demon.

She stared at her off white hair with its tint of ice blue, making a beautiful mix of winter in its hue of her hair. Chiestuka neatly tucked it under the wig cap and then slid on the wig, she quickly made her way to the mirror with a black makeup pencil and colored her eyebrows in. Kagome's mother told her to think of it like coloring a picture to color in the lines. Chiestuka stared at her reflection with self-loathing "I hate this. I don't want to have to pretend I'm something I'm not."

She went to exit her house and growled lowly "If I'm going to do pretend can't I pretend I'm a mermaid or something cool?"

Chiestuka left the house and saw a few kids standing not far outside from her house, they were perhaps ten feet away. There were four two girls and two boys, they had on what Souta wore a type of clothing called a uniform. The two girls were different one had brown hair that was shoulder length and the other had black hair in a ponytail that was to her shoulders. They both had brown eyes and the boys had brown eyes too. Both of the boys had black hair, one had it combed back and the other had spikey hair. She glared at them they were humans exactly what she was hated.

The girl with the bob walked up to her "Is this your house?" She looked at the girl and nodded "Yes, and you are trespassing this isn't part of the shrine. This is a private house." The spikey haired boy walked standing in front of the girl with a bob "What a loud mouth, don't talk to Mizuki like that!" The other boy also spoke "Oh really and what is a little squirt like you going to do about it?" She glared and huffed having a stare off with the other boy, the one with combed hair "You don't want to know."

They smirked and she looked at them something seemed different about them, they didn't seem like nice kids. They looked mean, the expressions on their faces said it all. She hated this wig when she wore it she couldn't read minds or use any of her pillows, she couldn't do anything at all that was demonic. Gramps had said he went and got a professional seal from a famous shrine in Kyoto.

The spikey haired boy walked up to her and grabbed her by her the hem of her neck, and held her so she was face to face with him "Apologize now runt!" The little demon in disguise glared and spit in his face "No way!" This made him throw her to the ground and wipe the spit off his face, his friend tried to grab her but was unsuccessful. Chiestuka had bit his hand her fangs drew blood and he screamed in pain, she turned to run. However thanks to the wig sealing her powers she ran very slow and the girl with a bob grabbed her, and the way she grabbed her was a blessing.

She grabbed the wig hoping to do a very painful thing holding her by her hair, however she hadn't expected the little girl to be wearing a wig. This allowed Chiestuka to run with demon speed into her house, she locked the door and heard the kids slamming their fists against the wood door that separated them.

Wasting no time Chiestuka quickly grabbed a tiny book bag that her aunt Kagome had given her, she frowned she couldn't take very much. 'I've had it! I've had it! I hate this place! Mommy is taking way too long and I don't want to be here no more!' She went to her dresser and put a yukata in the book bag, with her obi and hair pins. 'What else to pack?' Running to the kitchen she opened the cabinet space poked through food that she could prepare, she ended up packing some fruit and a bag of beef jerky, then some bread and a large bottle of water. Running into the living room she grabbed her writing book and her blocks, her bag held more than she thought. But it just barely held all this stuff.

She heard the knock stop and sighed with relief, she ran to the bathroom and splashed water on her face with soap on a rag she cleaned the makeup all of and smiled. 'This is me.' Icy light blue hair with her demonic markings and her ears out and flickering to the sounds, she smiled happily. Looking at door with that she threw it open and made a mad dash, she saw a blur of a group beside her still holding something black.

'Those kids! Oh well I don't care if they do see me.'

With that she stopped and turned to face them and glared at them "Farewell mortal scum!" She then resumed her run and stopped in front of the well house. Taking a deep breath she closed her eyes as her hand proceeded to open the door and her eyes at the same time. When she did the image in front of her made her heart stop, a creeping well house with old bones, dust, and comb webs everywhere and it was dark.

'I hate the dark…even with my night eyesight… its scary.'

She took another breath 'Maybe I should wait here for mommy.' The distant sound of those kids yelling and screaming at her, reminded her of her main focus 'My real home.' With that she shut the door and watching her feet she ran down the stairs, while making sure not to trip. The bone eater's well sat before her, she slowly walked up to touch it. The door opened and she saw those kids this only push her to forward, 'Time to go, I got to hurry! Those kids are here and I can't let them see!' She took a deep breath and let her poison focus in her finger tips to create the whip that she had gained from her father. With a quick swiping motion she used it to slash the dirt ground and make dust fly making the kids unable to see her.

With that she climbed onto the edge of the cave and jumped inside. As she fell down almost approaching the dirt and bone covered bottom she closed her eyes 'Please work! Take me to the feudal era!' When she opened her eyes she saw blue energy surrounding her, in this energy was an outline of a being.

'Young lady Chiestuka, I am honored to see you have returned. I am no longer able to be the guardian of the well of time so I pass this on to you my dear child.' Chiestuka stared in awe and gulped "What about my mommy? She is a grown up, I'm just a kid." The being laughed and nodded, it had no real form just a blue outline 'Well you both are, I have let the one called Kagome pass through due to the Shikon jewels begging. I also let you and your mother through because I could see that you and your mother would protect this place better than even I.'

"What do you mean?"

'You must protect this place. I have grown tired, I protected this well for well over eight hundred years and I now welcome death and the afterlife.'

Chiestuka tilted her head confused "Why would anyone want to die?"

'I was born a mortal, however a time spirit or demon I can't really remember pasted on this power to me after I had fallen in this well as a young child. The fall killed me, and this was a way to let my soul live on and see many things that most never see in their entire life. My soul has lived within the well and I have watched over all the times allowing people to pass and other to not be. However my soul has grown tired and I wish to move on.' Chiestuka shook and screamed "NO! I don't want to die and be stuck here! I want to go to my real home and see my father!"

'I know this, and I will not subject you to the same fate. Instead I will give you a necklace that will allow you to see the well, your eyes and only yours will be able to do this. If you utter a special word of command when someone is at the well you can either hide the well all together behind a barrier or deny entry. I have never needed to hide the well since I have always been here I only denied entry to very few who have tried to cross over.'

"So like what special word?"

'Ones you choose, you only need three. One to allow entry, one to deny it and one to hide with well with a barrier.'

The being smiled and looked at her holding out it's hand, as the being did this a drop fell from its aura leaving a dark blueish purple stone. This stone was along a thing, yet strong chain, 'This is similar to a meido stone. I'm not sure if you know what that is, but if you do then that might help explain it. Its like a mirror you can see the well from any era if anyone approaches five feet near the well you will see the stone glow turning white and then you simply say 'Appear, and you will see the one seeking entry.'

"Fine I guess, this will make me more important right?"

'Why does that matter?'

"I want my daddy to be proud if I'm a guardian and have a important duty I am sure he will be."

'This is important, passing through time could very well destroy the world you know and can change many lives. So you must decide wisely, you can see a person's intentions thanks to the power I gave you when you first pasted through. Your future vision, I gave your mother the power to read minds. I had planned to give her this duty however since you are the first to enter me I give this to you instead. Now I must go, I can't stay much longer… the after-life calls.'

With that a bright white glow flashed and deafening silence filled her flickering ears, freezing cold hit her bones and her feet felt wet and freezing.
