Narcissa Malfoy looked at the family portrait, face devoid of emotion. Everything was gone.

Everything her family had fought for gone and her family went with it; dead.

It was all the damn Potters fault! And Dumbledores'... It was Harry Potter's fault for killing the dark lord, when he didn't even know what exactly he was fighting for. It was Dumbledores fault for putting lies into people's mind by making the Dark Sides real objective something that was not true.

"I wish the dark side would have won..." Narcissa whispered, eyes looking at the happy family that she used to be a part of, "...I wish someone would have been able to make the old ways come back...make my family complete...and make sure they would have lived."

She knew that nothing could help her though. Everything was over. All the old ways would soon die with the Pureblood families, then the new ways of the muggle world would come in.

The old ways of connecting with magic...gone. Everything that kept the magical world functioning would be lost eventually.

Opening the potion bottle, she sighed as she sat on her bed; after she took this potion she would be with her family again. She could be happy...she wouldn't have to watch the world fall apart.

'I really wish things were different...' Narcissa threw her head back, quickly swallowing the potion, not caring that it tasted horrible. She just wanted it to end.

She would never be happy or whole without her husband and child. She kept her eyes on the family portrait the whole time, till her eyes closed, and she let herself be accepted into the darkness known only as death.

She never knew though, that someone had heard her, her wishes. Someone was listening to her and somewhere...another woman made a wish at the same time...the same wish, a wish that things were different.

Kagome held the jewel, eyes filled with tears. Everything was completed, Naraku dead. Nothing turned out how it was supposed to though.

Everyone was gone.

She wasn't strong enough to protect them, she wasn't even in the same time when they died.

She arrived back to the village, where everyone but Inuyasha was dead. Kagome had arrived back just in time to see Inuyasha killed.

She had fallen into a hurt despair, her rage swept over the village in the form of purification, and all of the demons in the vicinity had fallen victim to its light. That included Naraku, his body was disintegrated, and that was what hurt her the most to think about. How could she kill him in such a burst of energy in only a few moments, but when they were fighting him together, she could barely land an arrow in the pelt he wore?!

She had been able to do nothing; she had let her friends die. Yeah, she hadn't been there, but maybe if she had, it would have been different! Maybe...

Kagome looked at the completed jewel that lay in her hands, it really left a hole in her heart to think that this was what her friends, her family, had died for. A pathetic jewel, so lost in her despair, she hadn't realized her thoughts, her wish was made with a singular thought. 'Why did things turn out this way...Kami...I wish it would have been different. Why did I need to fall down the well, why did it have to be me...I know I can't change the past, but...I really wish things were different...'

Just as that thought stopped, Kagome was surrounded by light and a woman and a cloaked figure stood in front of her.

"Kagome Higurashi..."

This caught her attention, the woman looked familiar, but Kagome still couldn't place her.

"Who are you?" Kagome asked, looking at the hovering cloaked figure and the woman in battle armor.

The woman smiled, "I am Midoriko, the one whose soul was made into the Jewel you protected..." The woman paused, looking over at the floating cloaked figure, "And this, is Death, you also may know him as the Grim Reaper..."

This made Kagome feel uneasy. Who wouldn't when you had death not even five feet away from you. That wouldn't make anyone uneasy...no, not at all.

"What is it you want with me?" Kagome asked, eyes downcast at the floor.

Midoriko was silent for a moment before she spoke in a soft tone, "You made a wish, not intentionally, on the jewel, but a wish nonetheless..."

Kagome took a deep breath, but listened as the creator of the Shikon no Tama spoke, " But at the same time, someone else made a wish...someone Death deemed worthy, but to make the wish complete death needs you..."

Kagome didn't know what to really say on that matter, but she did want to know what she could do Death couldn't.

"What can I do that Death can't already do? I am not that special." Kagome told them, but the two looked at one another before Death floated forward.

"I need you to go to the world I originated from. In this world, there is the Wizarding world...and there a war took place...this war, the wrong side won." Death paused, before he continued.

"The 'Dark' Side as the Wizarding world called them, isn't really all that dark. They just embrace the old ways. These old ways are what keeps the Wizarding World alive...without those old ways, everything will perish...and I need you to help make sure that the Dark side wins..."

Kagome didn't know how much help she would be, but she knew that she had nothing left here. Everyone was dead.

"And my wish?" Kagome asked, as she remembered all her friends and family.

Midoriko was the one to answer Kagome, "If you except going to Death's original world, your wish will be granted...a second chance will be rewarded to your friends and family. However, with that wish, you are no longer born to this world."

"Where would I belong then?"

Death gave a raspy laugh, "You would belong in the Wizarding world. I would give you an old last name to bear, and you would be accepted into that world. I would send you into the world a year before the final War began."

Kagome stood there thinking it over, her mind processing everything, "So if I accepted, time would be rewritten?"

Death nodded, "That would be correct."

"How will I live in this new world? Will I have a family?" Kagome asked, she wanted to have all the facts before she agreed to anything, but she already knew what she was going to pick.

"You will have family, but no parents or siblings. No one that would claim you as theirs when you arrive, but you will meet someone with your blood..." Death gave an eerie chuckle, he wasn't going to give her direct answers, that wouldn't be any fun.

"...how will I know where to find this Wizarding world in your world?"

"You will know..."

"When..."

"Only Time will tell, and as you and I both know, I am Death, not Time."

Kagome sighed, "You are no help at all,"

"I find its more satisfying to watch humans figure out life for themselves than to provide all the answers for them, besides, who will that help?"

"Me?"

A dark, creepy chuckle escaped Deaths lips, but he stopped conversing, floating back a bit so that he was now beside Midoriko.

"We are losing time now, Kagome,"

Midoriko held her hands out, and death raised one of his own skeletal hands up and out before him.

"I'm taking back your ability to purify, Kagome, it won't be of any use to you in the world that you will be apart of now."

"But-"

"I will be replacing that ability with the Magic of the bloodline you will be...inheriting."

"...what?"

"Yes, your family bloodline is to be one of the purest among the wizarding worlds."

"So my name...what will it be?"

Midoriko smiled, "You will keep your birth name, you will always be Kagome, that won't ever change, neither time nor death can take that name from you..."

"Your family name, however, will be Gaunt."

Kagome wasn't sure how well that name fit with hers, but before she could say anything, her she was shot with a blinding bright pink and white light, when it faded, she felt empty and looked up at Midoriko who gave a sad smile, "You can learn to manipulate your magic to create barriers and such, Kagome, but it won't be possible to use your purification any longer."

Once again, she made to speak, but a dark blue and black cut her off as darkness took over.

Before she faded into an abyss of unconsciousness, she heard a faint whisper from Midoriko.

"When you wake up, you'll be home...good luck..."
