Now to continue with the story.  Late time we were in Danny Phantom's territory, as he and his team are off to another adventure and mystery.  What they don't know is that their fates are intertwine with another group on the other side of the world, hundreds of years in the past.

That's right. In this latest chapter, we are taking a little detour.

[Clockwork's Tower]

Meanwhile, in the deep realms of the ghost zone, a certain ghost resides in his giant clock tower as he watches the events unfold before him.  Ever since the Dark Dan incident, Clockwork, the ghost guardian of time, has been left in charge of looking after young Danny Fenton/ Phantom and monitor his progress.  Right now, he is watching Danny Phantom and his friends heading towards the museum through his looking glass.  He then waves his time staff over the screen, changing the image and was now playing Danny's previous battle with Technos and his drones.  Past Technos, injured and malfunctioning, was still moving.  Past Danny noticed a faint pink glow in Technos's chest and shot a ghost ray directly at the spot.  Waving a glowing hand, Clockwork zoomed in towards Technos's chest and watched as a single glowing shard fell to the ground.  He then fast-forward to Danny picking up the shard and placing it in his pocket without a second thought, without noticing the shard giving off a slight visible glow in his pocket before it dim down.  Another wave of his staff changed to when Technos found the shard, glowing steadily like a heartbeat.  Technos gave out a gasp as he felt a surge of power, along with a mysterious dark force flow through his veins, his eyes glowed a fierce red and armor began to assemble.   Clockwork paused the screen and zoomed in towards the shard.

"So that's it," he concluded.  "This is the path he will be lead on.  The fate of the Shikon no Tama."  Clockwork turned to another looking glass as it displayed an image of a pink circular jewel, glowing brightly.  It shattered and released hundreds of fragments across the sky.  Images of demons appeared, a giant dark shadow with red eyes covered the sky.

"A path most challenging and dangerous.  Many obstacles you will face and as such many outcomes are possible to occur.  I am afraid to say should you fail my young ward, it will the end."

The screen then changed to Danny looking at his sketch of a boy with dog ears and sword.

"But you do not have to worry, for this is not a path you face alone.  There is another already following this path."

Once again, the screen changed and this time showed a village in the past, next to an ancient well a thousand year old tree.  Overlooking the village on a cliff is a group of people: a purple robed monk carrying a Shakujō Staff; a female demon slayer with a small cat like creature with two tails on her shoulder and a giant boomerang on her back; a small boy with fox ears and tail; a school girl wearing a green sailor uniform and carrying a bow and a bag of arrows....

and a young man with long silver white hair, dog ears and fangs, wearing red robes and carrying a sword on his waist.

"It seems the fate of two worlds are now intertwined."

The screen changed to view an impatient half demon waiting by the Bone Eater's well.

********************************************************************************************

[Feudal Era, Japan]

"She said three days.  She should be back by now."  Sitting impatiently next to the Bone Eater's Well in the middle of the forest was Inuyasha.  Inuyasha is a Inu-Hanyō, a half human and half dog demon.  At the moment, he was waiting for Kagome, a school girl and priestess from the future, to return from her studies.  And every minute he stood there waiting for her, he get more annoyed as a minute was wasted in his search for the sacred jewel shards.

50 years ago in his time, he fell in love with a priestess named Kikyo, who was also the guardian of the sacred jewel.  The jewel is a powerful artifact, with the ability to grant anyone a wish.  Many forces, both human and demons tried to obtain the jewel, himself included.  Tricked by the evil demon, Naraku, both Kikyo and Inuyasha were led to believe they were betrayed by one another.  Inuyasha stole the jewel in hopes of becoming a full demon but was pinned to a sacred tree by Kikyo's sacred sealing arrow, who later died from her fatal injuries.

Fifty years later, Kagome traveled from the future and released him from the spell.  Shortly after, the jewel shattered into hundreds of pieces and since then they have been traveling across the land in search of the shards.  They eventually meet Shippo, Miroku, Sango and Kirara, as well as battled several foes and demons, including Naraku.  So far, Naraku has obtained most of the jewel and has grown powerful.  Just the thought of Naraku makes Inuyasha's skin crawl.  He was anxious to tear him apart with his Tessaiga.  But he can't really find Naraku or the shards at the moment, considering his "shard tracker" has not arrived yet.

"What is taking her so long?  Gah, at this rate, Naraku will have the shards by now.  I'm going to go get her."

"You must be patient Inuyasha," said Miroku.  Next to him was Shippo, Kirara and Sango.  "Its still early in the day.   Kagome said she will return sometime in the afternoon.  We must have faith in her."

"Are you all forgetting we need to find Naraku and the rest of jewels shards? Every second we waste here, he is only getting stronger."

"We know Inuyasha." said Sango.  "We too want to get Naraku as much as you do, but I think we can wait a little while longer."

Shippo jumped off Miroku's shoulder.  "From what Kagome told me, these exams are really important to her.  So once she's finished, Kagome can have less worry about."

"You should leave her alone for a little while. It would not be particularly wise to drag her here in the middle of her studies," said the wise monk.  "Unless you want to get SIT."  Inuyasha shuttered at the thought.

"Of course, whether he does go get her or not, Inuyasha is bound to get SIT eventually," said Shippo.

"What's that suppose to mean?" shouted Inuyasha.

"Hey it's not our fault you go all stir crazy whenever she leaves you."

"I'm not stir crazy!"

Miroku tried to calm him down.  "It's ok, Inuyasha.  Even though it's only been a few days, we all miss her."

"Feh,"  Inuyasha turned his head away and crossed his arms.  "I don't miss her."  Hints of red on his cheeks.  "Why would I miss that stupid wench?!"

Of course, no one believed him.  Everyone knew that Inuyasha deeply cared for Kagome, even loved her.  But being stubborn as he is, he always denied it. 

"What an idiot," muttered Shippo.  Unfortunately, Inuyasha heard his little comment.

*WHAM*  Inuyasha clobbered the poor fox demon with a single fist to the top of the head.

"Who you calling an idiot?"

"Could this behavior really be the result of separation anxiety from one's lover?" thought Miroku out loud.

*WHAM*

"I am not asking you!"  Inuyasha turned and he stomped off to his tree to wait for Kagome's return.  Sango went to well to see it still empty. 

"I hope she is doing alright.  She was stressed out last time I saw her."

Miroku recovered from the hit and walked over to Sango.  "I am sure she is fine.  Like I said, we must have faith in her."

"I know, but I can't help being worried and not just for her.  From all that has happened, Naraku, Kikyo, the demons...my brother.  Hopefully, we will find Naraku and end his terrAAAHHH."  She felt the hand of a certain perverted monk rubbing her thigh.

"A touch of heaven to ease the tension of the upcoming battle."

*SLAP*

"Miroku you pervert!"

"What an idiot," said Shippo.

********************************************************************************************

[In Present Japan]

Sitting alone in the classroom was Kagome Higurashi, focusing on the work in front of her.  " I can do this.  I can do this.  Here we go."  For the past three days, she has been completing studies guides, unfinished/ past homework and taking several make up exams.  The one she is taking now is the last one and is her least favorite subject.

"Almost there.  Just about.  Just a few more.  What was the formula again?  Was it on the study  guide?  Did we even review that?  No, focus.  I can do this.  Yes."

Ever since she stepped into the Well on her fifteen birthday, she has been traveling back and forth to the Feudal Era, battling monsters and collecting jewel shards.  For less than a year, she has become part of another world, yet it has not been easy.  For one thing, it has been affecting her studies.  She was lucky to have passed the entry exams for High School, but it doesn't mean high school was going to be easier than Junior High.

For your information, the Inuyasha series (adventure) started on Kagome's 15th birthday (episode 1) while she was a Junior High student.  According to wiki, it was during fall/ winter season, considering that Kagome was wearing her long sleeved uniform.  Based on her age, she would be in the 9th grade, the final year in junior high.  The Japanese school year runs April-July (1st term), September -December (2nd term) and January-March (Final).  It was already shown Kagome started to wear her short sleeve uniform, thus spring/ summer and eventually wore long sleeves again.  So in my logic, about a year passed and Kagome would be sixteen or about to turn sixteen and is in 10th grade high school.

There's more homework and the teachers are more stricter.  Some are even starting to questioning her supposed illnesses.

Thanks for the believable excuses, Grandpa.

And what will she do when her quest is done.  Her role is to sense jewel shards and purify tainted evil from the jewel.   And it was mostly her fault the jewel was shattered in the first place and she felt it was her responsibility to retrieve them.  Still, what reason would she have to go back there when her role is complete?  What is the path she must choose for her life?  She has no clue.

There is also the situation with Inuyasha.  Lately, Kagome has come to realize she cares for Inuysha, perhaps more than a friend, but she can't really pursue her feeling as Inuyasha still carries a torch for Kikyo.  She understands Kikyo was his first love and a part of the reason of gathering the shards and looking for Naraku is to avenge her death.  Still, she can't help in getting mad whenever Inuyasha does something incredibly stupid and reckless when Kikyo is involved.

Yet she can't be completely mad at him.  She cares for Inuyasha as a half demon and has grown every close to him for the past year.  He has become her best friend, and even though he can stubborn at time, deep down he cares for others, protects them and determined to grow stronger with his own strength.  If anything, Inuyasha, along with her friends in the Feudal Era, are worth the monsters. 

Plus, over time, she has come to realize if anything should happen in the past, it may affect the future.  If Naraku wins and takes over Feudal Japan, what would happen to modern day Japan, her friends, her family, her home?  Will demons and darkness reign over?  Will the future she know even exist? 

'If fighting in the past means protecting the future, then its my duty to see it through.'

"Miss. Higurashi," Kagome snapped out of her thoughts.  "You have five minutes remaining.

She looked down at her paper.  She was only finished half of the test. "Gah!" 'Gotta hurry, gotta hurry!'

********************************************************************************************

[Meanwhile in the Feudal Era]

Inuyasha continued to wait for Kagome.  For a while, he has been resting on a high branch of the sacred tree, with a good view of the Bone Eater's Well.  It was peaceful day and there weren't any demon related attacks or any signs of Naraku.  With the quiet calm atmosphere, Inuyasha started to relax a bit, as he thought over the conversation from earlier.

"I don't miss her.  No way."  His cheeks blushing.  "Okay, maybe a little."  He sighed and laid his back to the tree.  "I should be glad she's safe on the other side.  There are no demons there, but it doesn't mean I have to like having her be gone so long."  He closed his eyes and placed his hands behind his head to make himself comfortable.  It felt nice, feeling the wind blowing, the fresh air, the warm sun rays, the shade of the tree.  For a moment, it was peaceful.

"Inuyasha."

Inuyasha quickly opened his eyes.  "What?"

"Inuyasha."

"Who's there?"  Inuyasha looked around and didn't see anyone.  What he did see was it was dark.  It was nighttime. 'But that's impossible.  It was daytime a minute ago.  I couldn't have slept through the whole day.'

"Inuyasha."  There it was again, an unfamiliar voice calling his name.  Inuyasha jumped off his branch and landed gracefully on the ground.  He sniffed around but still didn't sense anyone.  That can't be good.  Suddenly, the woods started to fill up with misty fog.

"Enough games," he growled.  "Come on out," he took out Tessaiga, "or you'll be sorry."  No noise.  "Fine then.  Wind Scar."  He raised his sword over his head and swung it down, releasing the powerful move.  It left a scar, taking down an acre of trees.

"A storm is coming."  A pair of glowing green eyes can be seen through the mist.

"What?" Inuyasha has never seen anything like it.  Never in life has he seen eyes glow in such an eerie color before.  It was fierce, other worldly and powerful like green flames.  He sniffed the air, it was the scent of death, almost similar to Kikyo's, almost.  Unlike Kikyo, who smelled like graveyard soil and bones, this scent reminded him of ember ashes, like the slow burning of a campfire.  There was a hint of human and something else.

"Inuyasha, a storm is coming.  One you have never seen before."

 Before he could answer back, the eyes came closer.  A figure became visual to see.  In front of him was what it appeared to be a young boy, right about his physical age.

According to wiki, Inuyasha is chronologically 200.  He was 150 when he met Kikyo.  But physically, he has the body of a 15 year old.  As a half demon, he ages slowly.  I am putting his birthday somewhere in December because in the second movie, he was born in winter during a lunar eclipse.  Danny was fourteen and a freshman when he became a halfa.  In my story he is sophomore and 15 years old, thus having his powers for about a year.  So technically, Inuyasha and Danny are both 15. 

Keep that in mind.

He looked skinny and pale, wearing strange black and white clothes, with a strange white symbol on his chest.   He glowed like spirit, a pure aura surrounded him.  He was floating in midair.  He had no legs, instead it looked like transparent tail.  Another thing that caught Inuyasha's eye was his hair, white silver. 'Just like mine.'

A part of him said this was a dangerous and powerful creature, his heart pounding and terror shivered his spine.

And yet, a part of him said he can trust him.

"Who are you and how do you know my name?"

The creature held his arms in surrender, eyes glowing calmly and answered in a soft voice.  "I am a friend."  Inuyasha kept his ground, making sure it wasn't a trap.  Still a feeling of trust lingered in the air.  He never met this creature before but at same time felt familiar in some way.  " We never met yet, but we will in different circumstances.  You're not the only one who walks between two worlds."  The boy started to float backwards, back into the misty forest. 

"Hey wait."

"Our fate will be intertwined on the night of the full moon."

The white hair boy disappeared and a second later, Inuyasha woke up back on his branch, with the sun still out and thoughts of a confused dream.

"What was that?"

Since I gave you Danny Phantom theme song in Danny's first chapter, for Inuyasha'a first chapter, here's one of the show's song.  Its in video.  Cant write in Japanese.  Plus song is better in Japanese.  This is one of my favorite opening songs from the show.
