The inu youkai and the kitsune were heading back to the clearing. The village has been in a disaster since Inuyasha left it. Small youkai have been running amuck in this village and with Kaede dead and with no other priest or priestess to look after the village, they had many problems. Some of the people who remembered Inuyasha in their youth begged him to come back and protect the village and forest.
Inuyasha decided to do just that not really for their benefit but souly for his. He had made a name for himself again through the forest and stayed at the village for a month now. He was heading back to hear Shippo’s report when a sensation vibrated through his body. A sensation he hadn’t felt in years.
Inuyasha looked in the direction of the well then smelt blood in the air and turned around going toward the bone eater’s well.
‘That blood it smells familiar.’
Then he felt it; the waves of the well time crossing through him. He was still connected. The barrier was broken. He growled as he thought of who it could be.
He ran to the well with the speed of the wind behind him. His long silver hair flowed through the wind and blended into his silver boa. When he got there he looked around and saw no one.
‘Humph, maybe she decided to go back, but wait I still smell blood.’
He looked over the ledge and saw a girl with long black hair at the bottom. Her clothes were odd, but Kagome always wore odd clothes. He jumped in and scooped her out.
“What in the hell?” Inuyasha said when he looked at her. He felt angry for a moment looking at her bruised head until he saw the point from where she was bleeding on her wrist.
“Inuyasha who’s that?” Asked Shippo running up with pants on his breath. He had smelt the blood too and thought it was Kagome.
“I don’t know but she needs help.”
Inuyasha quickly placed her on the soft grass and picked up her wrist to examine it. With his teeth he tore a piece of white yukata off to wrap around her injury. Simply because he couldn't stand the smell of her blood any longer. He wanted to leave her where she was but, Shippo didn't seem like he wanted to leave.
“Inuyasha, why is she all bruised up?”
“I don’t know but when she wakes up you can find out.”
“Me?”
“Yeah you, I don’t want anything to do with her I'm outta here, I've got better things to do.”
However, it was too late the girl already opened her eyes. They fluttered against the sun and then squinted. Inuyasha sat very still hoping the girl would go back to sleep.
“Where am I, mom? Dad?”
“Your in feudal Japan, My name is Shippo and I am a fox youkai, this is Inuyasha he’s an inu youkai.”
Hotaru sat up and looked at them bemused. She must have hit her head really hard or died and went to some kind of hell. Youkai were legends and nothing more.
“Hmm, so feudal Japan huh? Well, it beats being in Tokyo right now?”
“Did you say Tokyo?” Inuyasha whispered. His eyes were beginning to burn molten gold.
'Maybe she's connected to Kagome or something, she was from Tokyo as well.'
The girl looked at him with her deep purple eyes. Those eyes nagged at him, they seemed so familiar everything about this girl seemed familiar and it made him curious and angry at the same time.
“Hey why’d you cut yourself?” Asked the kitsune picking up on Inuyasha’s mood he could tell that Inuyasha was beginning to become angry and so that to change the subject. He pointed to her hands and looking at the binding’s Inuyasha put on.
The girl snatched her hands back and hid them.
“I have my own reasons.”
“Feh, who cares.”
“Inuyasha!"
Shippo exclaimed through clenched teeth. Than he looked back over to the strange girl. When he reached out for her she flinched back. Shippo sighed and gave Inuyasha a dirty look, however, Inuyasha had already moved a couple of feet away from them and had his back turned sideways from their vision. He seemed to be growling from what Shippo could hear.
Shippo looked at the girl and continued.
"Look, there’s a village down the hill where you can get some food, and some help, but it looks like you’re on your own unless I come back.” Said Shippo.
The girl looked affronted at first but then looked at Shippo and took notice of what he looked like. He was really good looking. He had a full chest and broad shoulders through his silk forest green Kimono with armor strapped to his body. He looked to be a tad bit younger than she. His rusted colored hair lay loose on his shoulders and seemed a little wild and his green eyes sparkled with friendly trust. When he smiled at her he showed white teeth with a couple of really pointy fangs.
So, she smiled timidly at him, still not sure what to make of the couple of guys, she was alone who knows where with two strange guys, considering her luck with men, she really couldn't trust even the friendliest right?
Than she looked at Inuyasha and he was beautiful in an almost godly way. His long silver hair was contrasted by the gold amber color of his eyes, though they looked down right hostile and non trusting Hotaru couldn’t help but to look at him. He wore a scowl across a face that was smooth and clear of any signs of aging he had light jagged purple stripes one on each of his cheeks. He seemed to be her age but, somehow older. He wore a red silk Kimono with white flowers on his right shoulder and heavy armor along his torso. He also had a big silver boa that rested easily on his left shoulder. She looked up to his eyes again and saw that he held hatred there...hatred for her, though she hadn't done anything to him, she figured that he could tell she was a freak. Than thinking about why she fell down the well she fingered her wrist.
“Your right, no one cares…”
She looked at her wrist again and sighed without looking at either of them. Shippo came up to her and tried to reassure her when she responded.
“Hey don’t worry about me, I’ll be alright.”
She got up and walked away from them quickly into the forest.
“Inuyasha, are you just going to let her walk in there alone?”
“Keh, what do I care what happens to her, she’s a woman a human woman at that. She is not of my concern, let's go Shippo.”
“But Inuyasha…don’t you feel it, we know her somehow, that energy she is giving off…”
“Shippo, she’s human and she came from the future or past I don’t know, but, it doesn’t concern us. Lets just do what we came here to do and go home, to where we don’t have to deal with humans again alright.”
“You do feel it don’t you, that is why you came here to the well to begin with.”
Inuyasha stood up and started walking in the opposite direction. Shippo looked out into the forest, something nagged at him too. He just couldn’t put his finger on it.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
A/N: Alright, there's chapter nine. I know, Inuyasha is being mean, but, he really doesn't like humans anymore, for right now anyway. I hope that you all could guess that he is dressed more like his older brother now. I have chapter ten ready, I'll post that up on Saturday or Sunday. Anyway, have yourselves plenty of turkey, ham or whatever it is you eat on thanksgiving. I know I will eat til I'm stuffed. Again, thank you all for reviewing the story, please keep it up, let me know what's on your mind, what you think, how you feel. It lets me know how I'm reaching you all.
love ya
