Kagome POV

It was during the last battle that everything turned wrong. We were winning we really were. I don't know where it went wrong. Just as I was going to shoot my last arrow at Naraku which in terms would kill him and end this whole fiasco. Somehow things started to go wrong. Naraku's tentacles whipped out and came at me with tremendous force. One of them plunged through my middle, while others scraped the rest of my body. Suddenly the one that was in my middle pulled out and wrapped around me, dragging me towards him. I heard the others screaming my name and I saw Inuyasha coming towards me only to be swarmed with demons. Naraku had told Kanna to do something with her mirror even though she was very close to death. Kanna's mirror rose up and formed what looked like a portal.

"You will interfere no more with my plans Miko, for you will no longer be within this world. Enjoy your new world and I hope you die painfully in it." Naraku threw me towards the portal, then something happened before I went through. It was amazing, Lady Midoriko appeared and stole the Shikon jewel away from Naraku. She came over and placed it in my side once more, where it had originally been. Then she herself went inside of me. Naraku went to grab at me, but I got pulled through the portal. I felt Naraku coming after me and as soon as we were both in the portal it closed insuring that none of my family could come through after me. I felt Midoriko mess with the portal a bit and realized that she made it so that Naraku would not appear with me, he would appear in the same world just in a different area of the world.

Suddenly I felt a pain throughout my entire body. It became so much that I passed out and I missed my landing into the new world. When I woke up though I was surrounded by four kids. They looked to be about fifteen, three boys and one girl. The girl had bushy black hair and red eyes. Those eyes immediately reminded me of Naraku and I unconsciously flinched away from her. The boy next to her was completely normal looking and really the only normal looking person in the group, he had black hair and brown eyes. The person next to him looked really weird, he had short black shiny hair with bushy eyebrows and black eyes. He was also wearing a really dumb looking green jumpsuit. The last guy in the group was different from the others, but I couldn't decipher what was different. He had spiky white hair he had black eyes, but one was covered by the headband that he was wearing. The bottom half of his face was covered by a piece of cloth, so the only part of his face that you could see was the top right half of his face. I slowly tried to sit up, only for a pain in my stomach to stop me. That is when I remembered that Naraku had impaled me.

The normal looking boy saw my pain and rushed forward to help, only to be stopped by a barrier that I put up. They may only be kids, but I don't know who they are or what side they are on. The entire group seemed to tense up and look at me. Then out of nowhere Lady Midoriko appeared out of me, taking a semi sold form. She could touch me and other things, but she was still see through. It was really weird, but she kneeled down and put her hand on my shoulder. Instantly I brought the barrier down with the calming waves Lady Midoriko was sending to me. If she didn't feel threatened then why should I? I realized that she had healed me when she touched me and I smiled at her in thanks.

It was then that she helped me stand up and I realized that I was shorter than the fifteen year olds, a lot shorter, as in I didn't even come up to their waists. I looked down at myself seeing what seemed to be only a two year old or so body. I quickly looked back up at Lady Midoriko with panic in my eyes "What in the world happened Lady Midoriko? Why am I so small?" I flinched at the sound of my own voice, it was so childish.

"I am very sorry Kagome, it seems that when Naraku transported you here it messed with your age. You are now a two year old." I saw that she felt bad for me, but she was also hiding a smile at my circumstances.

"What are you talking about two? I am not two I am seventeen! I don't want to be two again. Lady Midoriko!" I wailed at her, then against my own will I started crying "Why am I crying? I can't stop! Stupid two year old emotions." I sat down and started sulking. How could this get worse? Suddenly I realized how it could get worse "Lady Midoriko, what about Naraku? I had felt him follow me through when you placed the jewel back into me. What happened to him?"

"Unfortunately Kagome he got through as well. I had felt the portal messing with your time, so protect you in your now vulnerable state I altered the portal to send him somewhere far from here, but you do need to be careful. He is still in this world with you." She turned to the four shocked teens and said to them "I must ask each of you a favor. You must know that everything I am about to tell you is true. Kagome here has had a very rough life, as you can see with the condition that she was in when she got here. She has a very powerful enemy, he is called Naraku. I have looked into the future young ones and each of you have important and adventurous futures. You all become very strong shinobi, I am going to need you to take care of Kagome here. Her future is not a bright one, but at the same time I want to give her a chance at a normal childhood. I know that I am asking a lot of you, but she is a very important guardian of a very important jewel. It is called the Shikon jewel and it is made out of my soul and the soul of three other demons. Kagome here is a very strong Miko, in other words she is a priestess." She walked over to me and place a hand on top of my head.

"Lady Midoriko why are you telling them all of this?"

She smiled sadly at me "Like I said before Kagome, I want to give you the chance to live a normal life in this world. But to do that you will not be able to keep your memories of your first attempt of seventeen years. I am going to erase your memories, I will see you in the future Kagome." Before I could utter a word she pushed her power into me and I was surrounded by a bright pink light before I blacked out.

Kakashi's POV

I couldn't believe what we were seeing. We were practice training for fun, well the other three were, and they just roped me into it. When suddenly a sphere of light appeared out of nowhere. It floated down to the ground and vanished leaving a severely injured young child in its place. She woke up with a start and looked at us all with a calculating eye. She flinched away from Kurenai, which is odd because she is the only other girl here. She gave a quick look over of Asuma, and she looked at Guy like he was super weird and she wasn't wrong about that. She stopped on me for a while taking me in, it unnerved me a bit. It was like she was much older than she seemed and she was looking right through me. When she got down looking at us she tried to sit up, only to be stopped when a large wound in her stomach stopped her. Asuma couldn't take it anymore and rushed to help the girl. The girl acted as though she was being attacked and suddenly a pink barrier stopped Asuma in his tracks.

Then things got even weirder if that is even possible. It looked like a ghost came out of the girl, the woman put her hand on the child's shoulder and almost instantly healed her. They talked for a bit, and honestly it sounded like they were from an insane asylum. I wouldn't have believed a word they said if I wouldn't have seen the pink light and the ghost woman. The woman then turned to us and asked us to believe her story. It sounded bizarre, but I could tell that this woman was not lying. Then when she told the child that she was going to wipe her memories, the child looked panicked. It didn't seem like the child wanted her memory wiped. Then the woman placed a hand on the child's head and a bright pink light formed around the girl and she started to collapse, but the woman caught her.

She turned back to us. "I must tell you that there are two things that will return her memory, for she will not be able to live in bliss forever. The first thing is when she turns the age that she originally was, so when she turns seventeen her memory will return. The other condition I have put in is if she ever sees Naraku, for she will have to know what she is up against. Naraku is more powerful than anybody you have fought against before, be wary of him." She paused a moment to let that sink in, so she means that this Naraku fellow is stronger than both the nine tailed fox and Orochimaru and this girl was fighting him. "I ask the four of you again, please watch over Kagome. My power is weak here, so I will not be able to appear to her as much I was once able to."

It was Asuma who spoke first "Of course we will protect and watch over her."

Guy spoke up next "I will protect her with the power of youth!" ugh he is annoying.

Kurenai looked at the girl, then back at Midoriko "Why did she flinch away from me when she saw me?" she didn't seem hurt by that fact, only curious.

"Most likely your eyes, Naraku has red eyes."

"Oh, that would probably explain it. I will protect her."

Midoriko turned to me next "And what about you white haired one?"

"What exactly is so terrifying about this Naraku person?" I asked her.

"Naraku is a half spider demon. He used to be human until he let himself be devoured by demons so he could attain the Shikon jewel. That is the jewel that is now inside of Kagome. He is able to create barriers that are undetectable, so he is not easy to find. He is also extremely good at shape shifting, and has used it against her and her group in the past. He is able to manipulate Miasma, which is a poisonous gas. It is extremely deadly. He is also able to make incarnations of himself, though with his track records of incarnations they do not stay loyal long. All of them betrayed him at one point or another, but he keeps them loyal because he hold their hearts, literally, captive. Does that answer your question?"

I nodded at her, this guy really did seem like a really bad character. "Yeah alright, I'll protect her." She smiled at me like I had just made her entire day.

"Thank you all, I feel very happy that Kagome has four very strong protectors. On another note, as she is not from this world, she needs a place to call home." She stopped and looked right at me. I was not liking where this is going, and to prove my point she smiled and continued "Kakashi, I would like you to take care of her please. I know that you do not want to, but in the long run it will be beneficial to both of you. Another thing Naraku can do is create demons from his body, and as soon as he finds her which will not take long, he will send them after her to kill her. You are also going to become a teacher to her and other students that will be beneficial to her."

I hung my head and sighed in defeat, this lady was practically an angel, I couldn't argue with her. "Alright, I guess I will if there is no other option for her."

She smiled at me again "I must thank you from the bottom of my heart Kakashi, she walked over to me and passed me the sleeping two year old. Kakashi meet your little sister, Kagome Higurashi. Please protect her innocence from Naraku as long as you are able. Teach her to become a wonderful and strong shinobi in the future." She started to disappear "It seems that my time here is up for now, one more thing until we speak again. In the future her friends from her world may come over here to try and rescue her. Trust them they are good people."

"How will I know if it is them or not?"

She gave us a simple thoughtful look before seeming to come to a conclusion. "I will put their image in each of your minds." She touched each of our foreheads and a pink flash happened each time. When she got to me images of a bunch of people popped into my mind.

"Why so many people?"

"I do not know which of them will be crossing over to this world." She turned to look at the other three, "Can you three please leave, I wish to speak to Kagome new guardian alone." Instantly the three took off. The sleeping child moved a bit in my arms and I rearranged her so I wouldn't drop her. "Kakashi I am also going to show you something more. For you to know just how difficult Kagome's life was I am going to show you her memories." She touched my forehead again and that is exactly what I saw. It went by really fast through her first fifteen years. The place that she lived was really odd. Then it slowed down a bit, but still in fast forward when she got dragged down the well by a giant centipede woman. I watched the jewel get ripped from her side and I watched her shatter it, beginning her journey. I watched as she met all of her friends. I watched as she fought demon after demon. I watched all of the times she got kidnapped or manipulated by the enemy. Finally I watched the final battle and I watched Naraku impale her with his many tentacles. Then I watched as Midoriko put the jewel back into Kagome and as Kagome flew through the portal made by the girl in white. Things went black for a bit until I finally saw her waking up and looking at all of us. Midoriko's hand left my forehead and I stepped back exhausted.

"How long did that take?" I asked in wonder.

"Only about five minutes." She answered truthfully.

Then a thought hit me "Wait a minute if her friends come in the future how will I recognize them? Won't they all look different and older?"

"No Kakashi time works different here then there. The longest that time will pass over there as they find a way here is a year, the only one that may change in that time is the child Shippo or Rin. So hopefully by the time that they get here, Kagome will be the age that she used to be and will remember them. That is why I want her to remember at seventeen so she will be the same age as her friends. Thank you again Kakashi, and watch over our little Kagome." With that Midoriko disappeared back into Kagome. I looked at the little girl in my arms.

"Great, what did I get myself into this time?" I asked myself as I made my way back to the village.

I hope that you liked this, I'm not entirely where it is going to go yet. But the idea popped into my head and I just couldn't get it out. I hope that you enjoyed it and will review. I am welcome to ideas on where to take this story exactly.
