What If? Chapter 1

A pink light was glowing from the inside of an old rickety well as a young girl climbed out of. Her raven hair so dark that in the right light it looked like it had blue highlights and her skin that looked like delicate cream. She wore green sailor outfit that did not fit the time period she was currently in. This girl's name is Kagome.

"Stupid Hanyou I'll kill him." she growled as she made her way to the village a short ways away, "He says he wants me back by this afternoon and is he there waiting for me, no." Her grumbling was cut short when she felt a demonic presence brush against her skin. Kagome reached out with her meager powers and tried to find it but, as soon as it was there it was gone.

"It's probably nothing." she decided hesitantly as she continued to make her way to the village.

"Kagome-san!" Kagome heard a familiar voice shout as she entered the small town.

"Sango-Chan it's so good to see you!" Kagome exclaimed as the two girls embraced. Sango lead the way to Kaede's hut and the three women began to speak while Kaede stirred her soup. All of the sudden a blur of orange and green shot towards Kagome.

"Kagome-okasan!" Shippo cried, causing the women to laugh at his antics. Kagome glanced at the door, expecting two more people to follow. When they did not she questioned it.

"So where are Inuyasha and Miroku?" Kagome asked.

"Miroku is asleep in the back and Inuyasha disappeared this morning." Sango informed, "I had figured that he was going to wait for you." The hut fell into laps of silence momentarily, causing Shippo to squirm awkwardly, before Kagome broke the silence.

"I'd better go look for him." she sighed as she pulled on her backpack and headed out to look for her missing friend.

"Should we have mentioned the soul stealers?" Sango asked Kaede softly as soon as her friend was gone.

"No child." Kaede responded heavily, "she needs to find her own path"


While Kagome walked through the forest, hoping to catch a hint of red in the never ending green, she allowed herself to get lost in her thoughts. Recently she had started to look over her situation with Inuyasha.

"I don't think this is going anywhere but... oh I don't know." she sighed, thinking aloud.

Kagome was snapped out of her thoughts when she saw a flash of blinding white. The color reminded her of Sesshomaru's hair but it was much shorter and the color was not up high enough to be attached to the towering demon lord. With her curiosity getting the better of her Kagome took off after it. When she got to her destination she was definitely unprepared for what she saw.

She looked on as Inuyasha pulled Kikyou to him and kissed her thoroughly. Quickly covering her scent and aura so she didn't attract the half demon's attention she took off towards the well. She didn't need this. The pain of betrayal told her everything she needed to know. She was done with pining after the half demon.

'I will not stand for this anymore.' she thought as she jumped in without hesitation, a look of fierce determination in her eyes.

A silent figure standing on the edge of the clearing that held the well gave a small smile. It turned on its heel, white hair fanning out around it as it disappeared, becoming nothing more than a shadow in the forest.


Okay this is the updated and, personally I think, much beter version of this chapter. I fixed spelling, grammer, and just plain old amature writing. For the new comers, Welcome! Feel free to tell me what you think via review or PM! Thanks for reading.
