Hi, everyone! This is Xalainu, bringing you the first InuYasha-Coraline crossover! Please read and review. My friend and I worked HARD on this!

--The Secret Door--

"Oh, this looks like a nice place!" Kagome gushed as she pointed to a pink building which had a bunch of apartments. the 19-year-old was looking in the newspaper for houses because she was moving. and InuYasha, Kagome's boyfriend, came to Kagome's time to move with her.

Kimmie pouted angrily. Obviously the apartment she was going to move in was probably boring, dirty, and gray on the inside. "Stupid life," Kimmie muttered. She wished that her parents didn't get drunk. then she wouldn't even have to move in the ugly apartment with her cousin! and then it wouldn't be such a... pink mess!

Kimmie wished that there was another world; one where she had "other" parents that never got drunk, that they'd listen to her and give her good food and lots of other fun and entertainment.

"Cheer up, Kimmie." Kagome sat next to the gray-eyed girl. "I'm sure you'll make new friends at the Pink Palace."

The Pink Palace. That was what the rotten, old, ugly, pink apartment was called. Yuck. Such an ugly name for an apartment. She grimaced at the thought of the ugly house.

That was when Kimmie's gray eyes laid on a picture of a big, beautiful mansion. It even had a pool!

"What about that one, Kagome?" Kimmie pointed to the picture of the big house.

"I'm sorry Kimmie, but we can't afford that. it's a lot of money; one million dollars!" Kagome said sadly.

Kimmie sighed. looks like it was her and the ugly apartment.

"well, we might as well do with what we have," Kagome said. Kimmie scowled. "Pink Palace... I'd rather live in a shack."

Kagome smiled slightly. "I'm sorry Kimmie, but it's the only thing we can afford."

And so, Kimmie, kagome, and InuYasha soon were at the doors of the pink palace with a key.

"We're home!" Kagome said, trying to keep everyone's spirits cheerful.

InuYasha walked past her, saying, "It's a pink disaster, Kagome. Don't try to cheer anyone up."

Kagome sighed. "Can you at least try to be optimistic?" she asked.

"no," Kimmie and InuYasha said as they walked in.

On the outside, it was Barbie pink. On the inside, it was very dull and gray as Kimmie thought it would be. Fortunately, it was clean enough for her taste.

"Here we are!" Kagome said. "Let's start moving boxes in and get settled in!"

Kimmie raised an eyebrow. "You go do that. I'm going to get first pick at a room."

"Fine," kagome said.

As her cousin and InuYasha started unpacking, Kimmie explored the inside of her new home.

It was very humble and modest. Everything was rather neat.

"Wow, it's actually pretty nice here..." she thought.

As she continued, Kimmie couldn't help but feel that she was being watched. She looked outside a window and found herself face-to-face with a black cat.

She opened the window and let the cat in. It slinked down from the windowsill and brushed against her legs. its blue eyes stared up at her with a mysterious expression.

"Hello, Mr. cat," she said as she closed the window.

The jet black feline mewed softly. It purred when Kimmie scratched it behind its ear.

"You'll be my friend, right?" she asked.

A sneeze was heard from the living room. it was InuYasha. Kimmie knew that he didn't like cats because their fine fur made him have sneezing fits, but it was kind of too late for her to put the cat out.

it had been difficult to open the window, so there was no way she could get it open in a few seconds.

"Hey, Kimmie!" InuYasha yelled. "Is there a cat in here?"

Kimmie froze when he stepped in the room. She would get in a lot of trouble of InuYasha ever found out. She quickly hid the cat under her bed.

"Stay here, please," she whispered to the cat.

"What do you have in there?" InuYasha was in Kimmie's room.

"Nothing," Kimmie lied.

"I can smell it," he said.

Kimmie paled as he started to search her room. Every passing minute, he was getting closer to the cat.

"Aha! it must be under here!" InuYasha exclaimed as he lifted up the bed.

She inwardly gasped. InuYasha would find and kick the cat out. Literally. She closed her eyes and waited for him to yell at her for lying.

"Huh... there's nothing there..." InuYasha said.

Kimmie looked to see that there was nothing but a few charming dust bunnies. she was in disbelief. the cat couldn't have gone anywhere without inuyasha spotting it!

"hey, who opened the window?" he asked as he dropped the bed.

Kimmie waited as he closed the window. She could've sworn that the window had been closed.

"Must've been my imagination," InuYasha said as he left.

Kimmie stared at the window. suddenly, the cat was right there, sitting on the outside. Kimmie's eyes grew wide.

"The cat?! How did it get outside?" she thought.

The cat seemed to smile slyly and wink at her. Kimmie blinked, and it was gone. She ran to the window and looked around, but there was no trace of the mysterious feline.

"Smiling, winking cats... this bubble gum house must be affecting my brain," Kimmie muttered. "I should just relax."

The young girl walked down the stairs and opened the front door. She was pretty bored, so she went outside.

She blinked with curiosity as she saw a girl with blue hair walk around in the mud. The girl had a yellow rain coat on and yellow rain boots.

Kimmie started to wonder what the girl was doing, walking around with a stick that was in a "y" shape.

The girl turned around and saw Kimmie standing there.

"Did you just move here?" the girl asked.

Kimmie nodded. "You live here, too?" Kimmie asked.

"Yeah," the girl replied. "The Pink Palace is such a dump."

"I agree," Kimmie said.

"Anyway, I'm Coraline," the girl said.

"That's a cool name," Kimmie said. "I'm Kimmie, by the way."

"Oh. Okay," Coraline said.

Kimmie's gray eyes laid on a well covered up with wooden boards and surrounded by rocks. She walked over to it and looked into the hole.

"What's down there?" Kimmie thought.

A motor suddenly rang out in the woods.

Kimmie turned to Coraline. "Is someone cutting down a tree or something?" she asked.

Coraline shrugged.

Kimmie stood up and decided to try and attempt climbing a tall tree until the motor rang out again. She looked around curiously.

Where is it coming from?

That's when Kimmie spotted a thing with a skull mask. It was riding some kind of motor bike.

It charged straight at Kimmie.

She screamed and started running for it, but the thing was still chasing her.

"Wybie! Don't do that!!" Coraline shouted.

"Geez, Coraline, can't you take a joke?" the thing said as it turned a lever and pulled off its mask, revealing the face of a boy.

"What was that for?!" Kimmie yelled.

"Wybie, you scared the daylights out of Kimmie!" Coraline yelled, pointing to Kimmie.

Kimmie turned around to see the black cat again.

"Hello, cat," Kimmie said. "I wonder how it got here," she wondered, gently stroking the cat's head with her small hand.

"So you've met Cat before, huh?" wybie asked.

"Yeah, I guess I have," Kimmie replied.

"Hey, why don't we go hang out back at the Pink Palace?" Coraline suggested. "With all of us, it wouldn't be so boring."

Wybie paled. "Uh... i think my grandma's calling for me!" he quickly said as he took off on his motorcycle.

"Baby!" Coraline shouted after him. Kimmie blinked. She was very confused. What was up with Wybie? Is he scared of the Pink Palace?

"I guess it's just you and me," Kimmie told Coraline.

"Yeah," Coraline replied.

"To get wybie to come with us!" Kimmie yelled, running after Wybie.

"Kimmie, wait! no fair! You got a head start!" Coraline ran after Kimmie.

"Last one to get Wybie is a rotten egg, Coraline!" Kimmie kept running.

Coraline continued running after Kimmie. At least someone got her name right.

Well, this was my first one, so I hope you liked it! Please review it! My friend and I want to know what you think. ^^
