"My Lord! My Lord, please wait for me!" The little green imp followed after Sesshomaru as he trudged through the forest. It was like deja vu fpr the dog demon, every tree and every rock was the same as it was fifteen years ago. To demons like himself fifteen years might as well have been fifteen minutes, and the memory of the chase of that human woman was still fresh in his mind. Not before long he found his target; the Bone Eaters Well. Lost in his thoughts he didn't tell his ward Jaken that he had stopped and felt the small bump of the little toad running into him.

"So this is where she hides." He didn't bother to acknowledge Jaken's bows for forgiveness and walked over to the well, sniffing the area for the hanyou's scent.

"That well is very dangerous my Lord! I can sense it's power from here!" Jaken ranted as he slowly walked over and it was at that moment that the Nintoujou started going off. " The old man laughs my lord Sesshomaru, this means that this is indeed the place you seek! But how do we find this Inuyasha."

"That old man said it was beyond the well." Sesshomaru eyed down the well and could smell the thick vortex of power from all the demons' whose bodies had found this place as their tomb.

"But it is a well that eats demon flesh isn't it? How is my Lord supposed to-" Jaken was cut off when he was suddenly hoisted into the air and found himself dangling over the entrance to the well. He didn't even have time to register his master's plan before he was dropped to fall into the pit. "Lord Sesshomaru, Whyyyyyyyy?!" He shrieked up at the fading demon. Sesshomaru smirked when he saw that his ward had not hit the bottom of the well but had vanished through a fog of red.

"So it does transcend time. You will be found Inuyasha."

MODERN DAY

"AHHHH! I DON'T WANT TO BE IN THE AFTERLIFE YET?! NOOOO?!"

"Mrow." Jaken ceased his flailing when he looked up to the top of the well and instead of his lord's face and the open sky he saw an inner ceiling and a fat cat sitting on the edge looking down at him.

"AH! I'm alive!" Jaken jumped up and looked to see that he was indeed still in the well. "Lord Sesshomaru said the well transcended time. Did that mean my Lord sent me here to fetch Inuyasha? Or was he using me to test the well?"

"Meow."

"Quite you! I am Lord Sesshomaru's ward and a very valuable one at that! He would never throw my safety to the wind. He has entrusted me with the task of finding his bride and I will do so diligently!" Jaken fumed, using his small fingers to find the grooves in the stones that made up the well and climb his way out. He fell a few times but finally found himself at the top, gasping for air with the Nintoujou in his beak. He rolled out the well with a thud and looked around to see he was in a small shrine.

"Meow." His attention was pulled to some stairs where the cat was scratching at door, apparently trapped inside accidentally.

"Oh so that is the way out." He quickly dusted himself off and ran to the door and was easily able to slide it open, allowing himself and the cat to leave. He gasped at the monuments across the stone courtyard. It was almost like a small castle, with fine white stone and roofing but not nearly as big. "Of course a bride of Sesshomaru will be in such an extravagant place." He watched as the cat ran to the house and despite it's large size, jumped up to the nearest window and entered the house. He was quick to follow behind and listen in, unsure if it was safe to enter.

"Buyo, there you are!" It seemed to be the voice an old man and from what Jaken could smell he was human. "Where have you been lazy cat?"

"Meow."

"Dad you didn't lock him up in the shrine again did you?" Another voice, this one a bit younger and female, but still human.

"Of course not how would he have gotten out?" Jaken rolled his eyes as he listened and smelled for any signs of Inuyasha. "When is Inutenshi getting home by the way? It is nearly sunset?" 'Inutenshi? Is that what they call Lady Inuyasha here?'

"She called and said she would be going to study with her friends for a big test they have tomorrow. I think they are doing it at the karaoke bar." 'What is this Karaoke they speak of? And what is a bar?' Jaken couldn't understand what kind of phrases and words these mortals were using.

"That is a shame. I was hoping to try that spell that could hide her dog ears."

"Dog ears? That confirms it must be my Lord's bride!" Jaken whispered in excitement. Now he just needed to use his mighty staff to get those mortals to tell him where he could find her. The imp scurried to the side of the house in search for a door.

"Oh come now dad, she needs to not be ashamed of those ears. Besides I find them lovely."

"Aye that they are. If only society today wasn't so harsh on such things. Back in the feudal era such a being like her would be worshiped as a deity no doubt. But here they would call her a demon and try to have her captured." A tremor of fear past through Jaken as he listened to the old man's ranting. 'Capture demons? Do humans have such a power now?!' He had found the door but was far to hesitant to open it.

"Well we will just have to keep her safe as we always have done. She is a strong girl and smart so I don't think we have anything to fear. And I am glad she is out having some fun. She works so hard on her studies." Jaken listened to the bickering humans at the door, still shaking with thoughts of being captured when a new scent caught his ears. It was not that different from Lord Sesshomaru's but had an interesting twist of mortal blood to it. It seemed to be coming up the stairs of the shrine and Jaken quickly ran to the bushes by the door to hide as he listened and waited for the creature to approach.

"I like it loud. I like it loud. Oh, I'ma keep you up, Til' there's nothing left to do. So baby, turn it up, Cause the speakers gotta boom." The voice was heavenly, with a sweet tone that could only belong to a beautiful siren. Jaken marveled at the creature that bounced up the steps in an intricate dance as she sang to her hearts content. It was not hard to do so in the attire she was wearing. Black flat like shoes and tall knee socks that were exposed due to the shortness of her green shirt that swished around as she twisted her hips this way and that. Then there was her single layered top that was long sleeved and topped with a red scarf around her neck. Her top also had a large green collar and green trim on the ends of he sleeves. She held something in her hands that was pink and square and attached to it were black roots that were attached to a strange oval piece of material that was atop her head along with a folded bandanna.

"Listen up baby, We don't have too much time. Don't need no potion, Cause the flavor of my kiss is number nine," Jaken watched as her glossed lips released more song and saw the same beauty in her face that his Lord and his Lord's family had. It was a perfect shape and fair skinned, with thick lashes and bright gold eyes. If her wild locks of silver hair didn't give off that she had Inu blood in her then nothing would. 'It is her! It is my Lady! Even as a hanyou I cannot deny My Lord had a lovely bride. and her singing! Perhaps that and her dancing is her studies the humans were talking about. But that attire is all wrong for a lady of her level to be wearing.' Jaken leapt out of the bushes and made to bow at his lady but she didn't seem to notice him in her dancing and stepped right on him, squishing him as his Lord had done so many times.

"I'm home!" Inutenshi called out to her mother and grandfather, kicking off her shoes as she hummed the song coming off her headphones and heading to the stairs. "Gonna take a bath before eating if that is okay." She didn't need to hear to know that her mother was fine with it, as she always was, and heading up to her room to grab her pajamas and head to the bathroom. Poor Jaken was still laying on the ground where she had stepped on him, twitching and groaning in pain.

"Y-yep. She is definitely the one." he stood up shakily and brushed the dirt off of him before looking back to see how he should best get in to speak with her. It was then that he noticed there was a lattice on the side of the house with vines growing on it. Rubbing his hands together in determination and once again placing his staff in his beak, Jaken proceeded to climb the plant, resisting to screech in pain when he accidentally grasped thorns and fell back down.

Inutenshi enjoyed her soak in the tub, massaging her ears which were tense from being kept under the bandanna for too long.

"Such is the price of normality." she grumbled bitterly as she descended deeper into the water till her face was halfway past the brim. 'I wonder if the girls would accept me with them. Or...would Hojo accept me with them.' Hojo had been a very kind and attentive boy at her school who always offered her healthy snacks and drinks from his parent's shop. He was also very cute and that only made her even more nervous about how much she kept secret from him and her friends. Groaning in stress from the whole ordeal she punched her whole head under the water and rand her fingers through her hair, ringsing out the suds from her two in one conditioner. She pulled herself up for air and when she felt that her hair was rinsed out enough she pulled the plug out of the tub and proceeded to dry herself off. Once in her pajamas which consisted of drawstring pants with paw prints decorating the pink fabric and a matching pink tank top with a kitten on the center playing with a ball of string, she wrapped her hair up in the towel and went off to her room when she realized she had forgotten her sweatshirt she wore whenever around her family to keep herself decent. What she didn't expect when she opened her bedroom door was to look at her open window and see a large green and brown mass sitting on her sill.

"My Lady, it is an honor. I am Jaken and my Lord Sesshomaru has sent me to -GAH!" Jaken's head was met with a wastepaper basket and when he looked up it was then met with a pencil holder and stapler. His beak now red and sore he looked up in time to see Inuyasha holding her personal Shinai and with a beat red face rushing at him. "W-wait! AH!!" He didn't have time to beg before she struck him with a harsh swing that sent him flying, screaming as she did.

"Tenshi! Inutenshi are you alright?" At hearing her scream, her mother and grandfather came running into her room. Her mother had her wok ready to strike and intruder and her grandfather had his sacred beads and a few paper talismans.

"What is wrong child?" her grandfather growled, running over to where she was still eyeing the window.

"K-k-Kappa! It looked like a fuc-fracking Kappa!" Inutenshi was in hysterics, but not enough that she would be foolish enough to cuss in front of her elders.

"Ah Kappa? Inutenshi are you sure it wasn't just a tree frog?" Her mother was hesitant but her grandfather was in hysterics.

"A DEMON IN MY SHRINE! MY DUTY AS A PRIEST CALLS! No Demon is going to have my grandchild!" He ran down the stairs and into the courtyard, shouting calls to the spirits and placing his talismans all over the house.

"I... I don't know what I saw Mama. It was big and green and gross!" Inutenshi wrapped her arms around herself and shook her head in disgust.

"Come dear, I am sure it was nothing. Why don't we just go sit and have some tea and get you some food." Mama Higurashi knew just how to calm her child down and placed her arms around the frightened girl, escorting her to the kitchen. Hearing her father chanting away outside she was glad they had no nearby neighbors.

"And there!" Grandpa Higurashi placed one more talisman on the entrance to the house, " Let's see you come for my celestial grandchild now filthy demon!" He called out to the darkness before closing the door with a slam. Hidden behind the shrine door, which the priest never would have thought a demon would try to hide, Jaken stood shaking and rubbing his bruised face.

"Such a fiery temper. My Lord has quite a handful to deal with. But with such a priest guarding her, how will I ever find a way to bring her to Lord Sesshomaru."

"That is not for you to do." Jaken had a small heart attack as he heard a voice from the shadows of the shrine. Behind him at the top of the well was his master Lord Sesshomaru.

"My Lord!" Jaken bowed at his master as he hopped down off the edge of the well and walked over to the entrance. "I forgive me for taking so long Lord Sesshomaru, but My Lady has been very misunderstanding of what is happening and one of her wards seems to be a powerful priest!"

"I expected you to have located her and reported back, if you could have." Sesshomaru stalked past the imp and proceeded out of the shrine.

"W-what?! Then there was no guarantee of my return or survival?! My Lord how could you be so cruel after so many years of loyal service!" Jaken started to weep into his sleeve, but stopped when he noticed Sesshomaru keep walking and not care in the slightest. "Wait for me Lord Sesshomaru!"

"Silence Jaken." I was quiet and calm but Jaken knew that he had angered his master. "You are to stay here at the well and wait for our return. I can smell her; she rests in that room up above." Sesshomaru lept through the air and landed silently on the window, not giving Jaken the chance to warn him of what happened the same time he was in that position. But when he saw Sesshomaru enter the room without a fuss, he decided either she wasn't in there or she new Sesshomaru was there for her.
