There were ashes everywhere, the priestess panting from the large expulsion of her power. A deep sadness welled in her as looked at the remnants of life around her, reduced to these cinders by her own hand. "No matter where I go…"

The doors burst open and a group of four came through and seemed to deflate, as if they'd been geared for a fight.

The leader of the group, a broad shouldered man with a genial smile stepped forward. "No, I'd really rather hear what happened from you… We thought we were coming to a costumed convention and we arrive to see just one person out of costume. What happened to the others?

Stepping forward, the Japanese woman who had come with him looked at Kagome with a small smile. "Please, tell us what you saw."

Sighing, Kagome tried to think of a way out of this. "Um… I am Hig-er, Kagome Higurashi and I am only a tourist-"

Eyes widening, the leader darted forward to look at her more closely. "You-! You are the minx that broke the Doctor's heart!"

"You know the Doctor?" Kagome asked, her own eyes going wide. "How?"
