Chapter Two
Xander had the strangest feeling something big was going to happen today and living almost all of his life in Sunnydale he learned not to ignore his instincts. He came to Japan to look for newly awaken Slayers and thanks to one of Willow's spells Xander was able to speak and understand Japanese. Tokyo was a beautiful place and Xander loved learning the old history and legends his favorite being the legend of the Shikon no Tama. Xander read all about the miko Kikyou the guardian of the Shikon and how she fell in love with a half-breed named Inuyasha. Inuyasha's father was the great dog demon Inu no Taisho and his mother was a human princess. Inuyasha wanted the jewel to become a full-blooded demon, but he fell in love with Kikyou and decided to become a human for her. The end was sad with Inuyasha going against Kikyou and the miko pinning him to the God tree. In the end Kikyou died and the Shikon no Tama was burned with her body. There was too much missing Xander knew there had to be more to the story, but he might never know everything.
"Why do I want to know?" Xander asked himself as he look through one of the old books Giles sent him about powerful Japanese demons that lived during the Feudal Era. There wasn't much information on Inuyasha, his brother Sesshoumaru, or Inu no Taisho their father. Xander traced the picture of Sesshoumaru with a finger the demon was beautiful in both his form and his true form. Like Inuyasha no one knew what happened to the Taiyoukai. With a sigh Xander closed the book.
"Everything alright, Xander-san?" Xander smiled when a young Japanese Slayer by the name Yumi entered the room. She was the first Slayer he had ever found and he was very proud of that fact. "You seem confused."
"Not really confused, Yumi." Xander placed the book back in its place.
"Still researching the legend of the Shikon no Tama?" Yumi said knowingly.
"I never could fool you Yumi-chan." He smirked running a hand over his tired face. "Aren't you suppose to be training with the rest of the girls."
"We decided to take a small break." Yumi was worried about her friend the one she loved like a brother, he hadn't been getting much sleep every since he got interested in what happen with Sesshoumaru and Inuyasha. "My friend Kagome lives at the shrine that is the home of the tree the Inuyasha was pinned too."
Xander hugged the Slayer smiling like a mad man. "Can you take me to see the tree?"
"Of course." Yumi pulled back from Xander. "We can go now if you like?"
"Yeah, just let me get my car keys." Xander ran up the stairs to wash up and get his keys in his room. Yumi sat at Xander's desk to wait.
"He's ready Anya-san." Yumi watched as Anya appeared out of thin air.
"Thanks, Yumi." Anya smiled at the Slayer thankful for her help with Xander. Yumi was very different from other slayers for one she didn't slay demons unless they hurt humans. She was wise and so much smarter then Buffy ever hoped to be. "Everything is ready all you have to do is get Xander down the well."
"It will be done." Yumi told her friend Kagome everything and she agreed to help guessing it had something to do with the wish she made back in the Feudal Era. "You better go."
Anya nodded, she could hear Xander coming down the stairs. "Thanks again Yumi."
Yumi smiled as Anya snapped her fingers and disappeared. "You're welcome, Anya-san."
Xander rushed into the room finding Yumi sitting behind in his chair with a pleased smile on her face. "Everything okay, Yu-chan?"
"Of course." Yumi stood up and walked over to her Watcher. "We should go before it gets dark."
Xander nodded, he really wanted to see the God tree. "Then lets get going." He rushed out the room with Yumi following behind with an amused grin on her face.
Kagome smiled running up to her friend and the American. She knew that Yumi was a Slayer and this American was something like her Watcher. "Yumi-can! It's so good to see you."
"Kagome-chan!" Yumi laughed hugging her friend watchful of her strength not wanting to hurt her. She pulled back still smiling widely. "Kagome, meet my friend Xander, he's the one I spoke to you about."
Xander gave Kagome his famous goofy grin. "Hiya, Kagome."
Kagome giggled at the grin then frowned when she saw his eye and the green smiley face eye-patch he wore. "That's a neat eye-path, Xander-san."
"Yeah, I like to collect things like this." The smile didn't leave his face Xander was used to the attention he grained because of his missing eye. "So how about that God tree, huh?"
Kagome shook the thoughts of pity out of her head. "Yes, of course this way." She took them to the old tree. Xander saw the tree and ran a head.
"Beautiful isn't it?" Kagome stood next to Xander placing a palm on the God tree feeling it's pure aura calming her. It always had that affect on her.
"Yes, it is." Xander did like Kagome feeling the power of the old tree. "It's full of history."
"The Legend of the Shikon no Tama." Kagome saw the interested look in the American's eye. "You've heard of it and the hanyou Inuyasha?"
"Yeah, at least I know some of it." Xander knew this girl knew more about the legend then he did. "It's hard to believe that it ended there."
"It didn't Xander-san there is more to the story a lot more." Kagome knew she was suppose to tell Xander everything even her part in the story. "Would you like to hear? It's a long story."
"Yeah, I have plenty of time." Xander waited along time for this so a little bit more waiting wouldn't hurt him.
Kagome nodded and started to make her way to the well house. "Let me show you where it all started."
Xander shrugged his shoulder and followed with Yumi wondering what the well house had to do with it then he remembered reading somewhere about the Bone's Eaters Well. He followed Kagome inside and could feel a strange power coming from the well. "This is where what started?"
(Everyone knows the story if they watched Inuyasha.) Kagome explained how she was dragged into the well by a demon and found Inuyasha stuck to the tree. She told Xander how she broke the Shikon no Tama and about the hanyou Naraku. "Naraku was killed by Inuyasha with the help of his older brother Sesshoumaru. I made a wish and was sent back here to my time."
Okay, now that story will take sometime to adjust too, Xander thought as he sat down on the well's rim. "Kikyou is alive again and with Inuyasha? I thought you loved him?"
Kagome's smile was sad. "I do love Inuyasha, Xander-san, but I want him to be happy and Kikyou makes him happy."
"You have a good heart Kagome." Xander stood up and gave Kagome a friendly hug.
"Thank you, Xander-san." Kagome backed up blushing, the American was very kind and had a big heart himself. He would be good for Inuyasha's cold-hearted brother.
"So anyone going to tell me the other reason why I'm here." Xander crossed his arms over his chest and looked seriously at Kagome and Yumi. He knew since arriving there was another reason and was going to find out what it was.
Yumi sighed, she knew Xander couldn't be fooled for long. It was time to tell him everything. "Kagome told you about the wish she made on the jewel?"
"Yeah, she wanted her friends wishes granted." Xander remembered the sad look on her face when she mentioned Inuyasha's wish.
"The jewel didn't have the power to grant so many big wishes and so it had to have help." Yumi prepared herself for his anger. "Anya decided to help grant some of the wishes to make it easier for Kagome. The Powers that Be were very pleased by Inuyasha and his group and agreed they needed a second chance."
"So they sent Anya." Xander understood even if was hurt that Anya never showed herself to him. They were the best of friends before she died and he missed her. "Is she happy."
Yumi felt relief that Xander wasn't angry with her. "Yes, she loves her new job helping people instead of causing pain as she did as a vengeance demon."
Xander was glad, he wanted nothing more then for Anya to be happy and at least she wasn't dead any longer. "What does this wish have to do with me? That's why I'm here isn't it because of the Powers?"
"Yes, Xander-san." Kagome took over from Yumi since she knew more about the wishes and what was going on in the Feudal Era. "You are to be the mate of Sesshoumaru. Anya and the Powers believe you to be the perfect match and that you took need a new start in life."
"A mate?" Xander said wide-eyed. "To a another male? Like a husband?" They had to be kidding him.
"Yes, like a husband." Kagome thought it was great. Xander would be good for Sesshoumaru maybe even get the Taiyoukai to show emotion.
"Have you all gone mad!" There was no way he was going to become a mate to a male demon. "I like women I'm not gay."
Yumi laughed, almost falling to the ground in her laughter. Xander glared at her. "Xander-san, I've seen the way you look at pretty males. You may not be gay, but you are at least bi."
Xander blushed, what she said was right he has been checking out some guys like he did females. Maybe he really was gay because he hadn't been interested in women laterly. "I'm not mating with a demon I don't know."
"Xander, think about it." Yumi needed Xander to go down that well. "You have a second chance at life. At least meet with Sesshoumaru if you don't think it work then Kagome will go and get you." Yumi wasn't about to tell Xander the well can only work once and that was for Xander to go to the Feudal Era and then it will seal itself up.
Xander narrowed his eyes not knowing if he should trust her or not. "I can return?"
"Yes." Kagome lied hating that she had to do this, but there was no other way. "The Powers will give you the information you will need once you go through the well." And that wasn't all the Sesshoumaru's wish will also change him.
Xander took a deep breath it wasn't like he had anything to lose. "Fine, I do it." He glared at the girls. "If this doesn't work I'm coming home."
Yumi bowed. "Yes, we understand."
Xander hugged both girls. "Wish me luck."
"Good luck, Xander-san." They said as one.
Xander took a deep breath and jumped into the well falling into the blue light. Kagome and Yumi turned to look at each other both wishing they could also go with Xander and see how this will turn out. They didn't noticed Anya standing in the door way with a pleased smile on her face.
