“Janis,” he said aloud, starting to notice more details as she stepped closer; the stitching of her clothes and the way she carried herself without the rigid awareness most people had in royal grounds. No recognition of rank. No practiced deference. It was… oddly refreshing. He brushed damp strands of hair back from his face, still half-soaked from the pond, and studied her for another moment before answering.

“The Fire Nation is one of the Four Nations that make up this world.” He realized his voice carried the tone of someone explaining something obvious, so he softened it when he remembered it wasn’t obvious to her at all. “We value strength. Discipline. Order.” His gaze drifted briefly to the lanterns reflected in the water, their flames trembling with each ripple. “Fire is our element.” A faint, humorless huff escaped him. “We’re also responsible for a hundred year war that nearly destroyed everything.” His gaze returned to her. “We’re trying to be… better now.”

Zuko shifted his stance slightly, folding his arms loosely across his chest, still watching her with careful, assessing focus as his head tilted slightly, curiosity surfacing. “You said you were trying to find a friend.” His browfurrowed. “And you mentioned somewhere called… America?” His golden eyes held hers. “How did you get here, Janis?”

[tinyblondegoddess]

"Yeah. Well, if I'm honest, I think of her as my best friend. We went on a... long journey together. After our long journey, I was forced to go back to the place I had called home. I stayed there for a while, and then I made my way back to my best friend's home." She stopped for a moment and moved to sit on a bench while lowering the backpack to settle it onto the ground next to her.

"So, once I got back to her house, I used the... ah-... let's just call it a magic door for right now, and I thought everything was going right and I was going to end up in the right place, but then I ended up here instead. When I was going through the 'magic door' I talked about, there was fire, and then the fire shifted and turned into a phoenix that fell and then rose from its' ashes. It was really cool, but I didn't really understand what it meant." Janis told him, reaching into her backpack. When her hand retracted from the cavernous depths of the bag, she lifted up a bag of potato chips, opening up the vacuum-sealed bag and then popping a crispy chip into her mouth. She crunched for a minute on that chip before swallowing, then looked over at Zuko.

"What's your name?" She asked, offering him the bag so he could have some chips if he wanted.

[honorforged-archive]

Zuko studied her a second longer than was polite and then stopped pretending he wasn’t. She has light hair, but not like the strawberry red you sometimes saw in the Earth Kingdom. It was much lighter than that. Like it had been kissed by the sun itself. And her skin was fairer than the people of the Fire Nation, and not the deeper hues of the Earth Kingdom and Water Tribes; she was paler than even Aang. Her eyes were an impossible blue, sharp and deeper than any he’d seen outside the Southern Tribe. She didn’t look like she belonged in the Four Nations at all.

The tension in his shoulders shifted as he pushed himself the rest of the way upright in the pond, water sliding off his sleeves as turtle-ducks stirred lazily nearby.

“…Yeah,” he said after a moment, “I figured.” He rested his forearms on the stony edge of the pond and looked at her properly this time, his scar pulling faintly as his brow furrowed. “You don’t look like anyone from the Four Nations,” he said bluntly, because dancing around it felt pointless. “And before you get upset, that’s not an insult. Just an observation.” He paused thoughtfully, considering what she’d said about looking for someone and ending up there instead. It sounded an awful lot like what Kagome described on her first visit following after Inuyasha. Could it be that this girl has come from the same world?

“This is the Fire Nation capital,” he said, “Specifically, the royal botanical gardens.” Zuko straightened, water dripping back into the pond as he climbed fully onto the stone path. “If you don’t know where you are,” he continued, “start with this; you’re safe. For now.” His mouth twitched into an almost smile. “You can trust me.” He glanced once toward the gate he’d mentioned earlier, then back to her. His gaze softened just a fraction. “What’s your name?”

[tinyblondegoddess]

She had been prepared to bristle again, but calmed considerably when he told her that it was meant as an observation, not an insult.

"The Fire Nation capital..." She said softly, watching him as he straightened and then climbed up onto the stone path before offering her the knowledge that she was safe. That couldn't be offered very easily in some places, but here? Here, it seemed like he most assuredly had the power to offer her that safety.

He told her she could trust him, then asked for her name. "Janis. It's Janis Carson. Though you can just call me Janis." It was an American name, one that had been strange even back in Japan, where she had first met Kagome. But here in this place, it seemed like her name might be even more foreign.

Like she might be the only American here.

"The Fire Nation... that sounds pretty exotic. What kind of place is it?" She asked lightly, stepping a little closer to this man that she didn't know, but that she was slowly beginning to trust.

[honorforged-archive]

Zuko had ended up in the botanical gardens after the council chambers finally emptied and the relentless sound of shouting voices had finally stopped. The green glassy water of the turtle-duck pond was calm beneath the afternoon light, and lily pads drifted lazily as the turtle-ducks dozed half-submerged along the stone edges. Zuko lay back in the shallow water near the bank, his boots kicked off and armor abandoned somewhere behind him. His head throbbed, the pain now flaring in his scar. He draped one arm over his eyes, the other floating limply at his side, his fingers barely breaking the surface. For the first time all day he felt completely relaxed, so when he heard footsteps on the garden path, his first instinct was irritation, then resignation. Of course he wouldn’t be left alone for even an hour.

He didn’t open his eyes but he listened to the sound of those shifting steps. They sounded like they were turning in a slow circle, maybe trying to make sense of where they were. He could hear their uneven breathing, too.

Not a servant, then.

Zuko exhaled slowly, water rippling around his shoulders. “If you’re looking for the palace,” he said, voice tired, “you missed it.” He lifted his arm just enough to gesture vaguely. “Go back the way you came. There’s a red gate with gold inlay—can’t miss it. Straight through there.” He cracked one eye open and gave the girl a skeptical glance. She wasn’t dressed like anyone from the Fire Nation—or any nation he knew. The oversized pack on her shoulders and unfamiliar fabrics paired with the disorientation written across her face made his brow crease.

“…This isn’t the outer gardens,” he added more slowly, sitting up just enough for water to lap around his chest. “The public isn’t allowed in here.” His golden eye met hers fully now, sharp despite the exhaustion behind them. “So, you’re either very stupid or… very lost.”

[tinyblondegoddess]

His words made her bristle ever so slightly, Janis's deep blue eyes focusing on the young man before her. He looked like he might be around her age, which only made her bristle a little bit more. Still, at least he wasn't fully insinuating that she had broken in here on purpose. He offered two reasons she might be here, and the second was the right one. "I'm very much lost." She answered him, shaking her head somewhat.

"I was actually trying to make a trip to find a friend of mine and I-... well, let's just say that I wound up here instead." She took in another breath, letting it out as a deep sigh that showcased her exhaustion with being in a different place than she intended.

"I'm not sure how to explain it... But I don't know where I am."

[tinyblondegoddess]

Taking a deep, deep breath, Janis attempted to get her nerves in check. She stood in the courtyard of the Higurashi shrine, a huge backpack slung over her shoulders, packed to the brim with snacks and other 'comfort commodities' from the modern era that she and Kagome came from. She'd heard from Kagome's mother that Kagome had left to go back to the Sengoku Jidai after defeating Naraku, the demon that they had been after for years, and that Kagome hadn't been back since. Whether she couldn't or just didn't want to come back, no one really knew, though they all assumed it was because she couldn't.

Janis hoped she would be able to go back to the past. To go back to Kagome in the Sengoku Jidai and reunite with her friend.

She bit her lower lip for a moment, but then she steeled herself and stepped toward the well, jumping down into the well without hesitation.

Things were going well for the first few seconds, Janis's expression brightening as the well darkened with the tell-tale shifting of galaxies around her, the signal that the well was taking her back in time toward the Sengoku Jidai.

Just as Janis was letting out a sigh of relief, however, the world around her shifted. The purple-blue-shifting galaxies changed suddenly.

Everything around her shifted into a beautiful cascade of crimson, orange, and yellow. Fires and magma, and Janis's blue eyes gazed around her in a sudden panic. And then, the flames before her shifted and rose, becoming a phoenix before her. The phoenix fell, burning to cinders and ashes, and then rose from the ashes almost immediately afterward. Like the flames were trying to tell her something, and then the world faded away to darkness around her, brightening again only moments later.

And she didn't recognize the world around her.

This wasn't the Sengoku Jidai.

The blonde was happy to hear Kagome calling back to her. That meant a quick face-to-face with the girl right here and right now before Janis decided to go back to the Feudal Era herself to see all the friends she’d made back there when she was here before. Focus was quickly driven onto the form of the girl in a shrine priestess’ outfit(very fitting, by the way, god that girl looked good in priestess clothes) and she ran for her. “You bet it is!” Janis called back to her as they got closer and closer to each other before enveloping the Japanese girl in a big hug. The two had gotten to be fast friends when Janis had been in Japan before, and Kagome had always understood Janis’ frustrations with her parents when Janis had explained them all out. She’d always said that she knew someone a bit like Janis’ father, and Janis had come to understand that that someone was Inuyasha. Blue eyes expressed increasing happiness and joy at the miko before she finally pulled back from the hug and smiled at her.

“I told you that I’d make it back to Japan.” It was the last thing Janis had been able to say to Kagome when the miko had come back from the Feudal Era after Janis had given back Datara’s Kamui and been thrust back into the modern day where she and Kagome had both come from. Janis had found out, shortly after her return from the Feudal Era, that dad’s job had changed again and that she and her parents were going back to America. It had been the most frustrating thing to hear after all of the friends she had made that she hadn’t expected to in a time where she didn’t belong. But that was just the thing, wasn’t it? She had belonged. Janis was the reincarnation of a Demi-God, the daughter of Datara and Tsugumi, and she had belonged in that place. That wonderful, perfect, beautiful time where trust was a commodity earned or placed in you by people who you fought with, or people who knew you and convinced others you could be trusted. Janis had loved it there, and had been given a reason to want to stay. But it hadn’t been right to just keep Datara’s Kamui, and so she’d had to give it back. Now though?

“So…. Datara gave me the Kamui.”

Everything was a blur, but she knew what it all meant. Janis was back, she finally got to see her friend again after what felt like a g e s. It was simply nice to have her back, in her arms again. America was just so far, and as much as she missed her friend, she really couldn’t take any trips. Not with her other-worldly duties becoming more and more pressing. 

A smile danced on her lips as the other girl hugged her. It’s been too long, she thought, looking down at the other. “I knew you would.” There was assurance in her voice, trying not to let the other know that she was frequently thinking about the other and wondering if she could be able to come back. It was a possibility, just like how she was a transfer student in the first place, but after the years passed, the hope in Kagome started to diminish. It always hurts to be out of contact with a friend, especially a friend that could one hundred percent understand her full life, not just one aspect of it.

She paused, looking at Janis confused, fully processing what she had just said. 

“Wait.” 

Datara gave her what? “Really? Have you had it this entire time? What are you going to do with it?” The magic of the Feudal Era was still usable in the Modern Era, but… That seemed like such an odd parting gift to Kagome. Couldn’t Datara just give his child a jewel? The powerful beings in the Feudal Era were always extremely dramatic, especially when it came to bestowing things to their children. Case and point, the entire Grave of the Black Pearl incident. 

It then dawned on the priestess that the other probably wasn’t just here for a friendly visit, so she instinctively went to grab her yellow knapsack. This is going to be an interesting ride, she mused to herself. It sure beat studying. 

“I... didn’t really have any plans for the Kamui. I’ve only had it since I came back to Japan.” Janis stopped while Kagome retrieved her yellow knapsack and got ready to go, but, as they started walking towards the well-house to go to the well and jump in, she resumed.

“It wasn’t some immediate thing, like my palms sparking and I knew that I had it back. But... I got so tired of being away. So, after I turned 19, I told Dad that I was moving back to Japan on my own. I have legal custody of myself now, and so I just kinda... left. And when I got back here... something clicked. And I couldn’t tell what it was, at first. I just felt like I was home. I got my own apartment, and I started working for a while, because I needed to support myself while I was trying to find my way back to this city, because I didn’t have enough on my own to just come straight to Tokyo. But I eventually found myself a place here to settle down in. And I’ve been staying here in Tokyo for about a week. And that was when things really started to... really fit again. I started feeling a heat that I could only remember from the times that things reacted to my Kamui when I was in the Feudal Era with all of you before.” Janis’ eyes lacked a focus on where they were walking, but more of a sense of retrospect on the past that she was currently thinking of.

“Like when we went to Mt. Habaki and met the God of Habaki. That rock was blocking the passageway into the cave system where the God of Habaki was residing. And when I touched it... my body got warm all over. Remember how I told you that? You guys went all silent when the rock broke after I touched it and I said exactly that. I felt warm all over. And Miroku instantly just took it for granted that this place we were in had to be Mt. Habaki and that the maybe we would find the end to our journey there. Instead, we found a God of Iron and Fire who had loved my ancestral mother like a sister. He’d tried to protect her, but couldn’t do as well as he wanted to. And then Tsugumi left, and he found out she died some time after that. And then he gave me Akanemaru and we left.” She laughed at how out of hand her point had gotten before returning her attention to Kagome.

“But it was like that. Like touching the rock. I felt that heat and my mind instantly clicked back to Kamui. So, for the past week, I’ve been going out to the park at midnight when it’s been abandoned, and I’ve been practicing with my Kamui. The first few nights, I got nothing. I couldn’t do it. But then... on the fourth night, I used Infernal Meteor. And I couldn’t believe it! I tried really hard not to break anything, but... yeah. I broke a soda machine. Hehe..” she gave a slightly sheepish laugh and then smiled as they entered the well-house, before moving down the stairs at the door to touch the sides of the well.

@thecrescentofthewest

Decision made and bags packed, the young blonde made her way to the shrine where she had first been transported to the Feudal Era four years previously. She hadn’t really understood much when she was sixteen and had first dove into the well to find Kagome, whom everyone had thought was sick and home in bed. But she had come to find a world where she’d found friends, and people to trust, and people who cared about her. Giving back that power she hadn’t understood had devastated her, because it had kicked her out of that place that she had come to belong in, and she hadn’t been able to go back. And then dad’s job had changed again and they’d gone back to America, and now...

Well, now she was in Japan again. And something had clicked. Something that told her that the well was open to her again. With a huge backpack packed and ready to go, Janis smiled somewhat. She was nervous, but her mind was made up and her life wasn’t here. It was there....

So she jumped.

And when she came up for air.... sweet relief. The sun shone down into the open well, and she got started climbing, hiking a leg over the side and stopping right there, basically straddling one side of the well and looking around in complete awe. This was it.... she was home.

Blonde locks flayed behind her as she walked quickly down the byways of the japanese streets towards a location that had, once quite a long time ago, been foreign to her in nature. Now she knew them like the back of her hand, and wanted to get there in a hurry. Three years ago, she never would have set foot on the grounds of this shrine unless she had been coming here for something important. Today…? Today that importance was a friend that she had missed for a very long time.

Right after she had given back a power she hadn’t even known she had when their adventure had begun, she had been hurled into a time that she had come to resent somewhat. She’d hated it here until she’d made friends with a modern day Miko who had given her a reason to enjoy living her life again.

“Kagome!” Janis called out, hoping that her raven-haired friend was home for a visit. If not… well, Janis knew that she could go through the well again. She wasn’t going to even hesitate if Kagome wasn’t here.

It was a long couple of weeks for the priestess. Life has been turbulent, and she’s been downright overbooked thanks to some demon gang in the Feudal Era. When she came back yesterday, all she wanted to do was sleep. 

Which is what she did.

Which also meant that today she had to catch up on everything she missed in the two-week period, as well as watch the shrine for her grandfather. In the shrine-wear, she was rereading her classmates’ notes, trying to catch up with everything she’s missed. Her tongue fumbled over the english words, they feeling so heavy in comparison to her native language. 

“Janis?” She called out– she wasn’t exactly at the shrine front, opting to study in the shade behind it. “Is that you?” Kagome put down her books, excitedly going around the corner to greet her friend. 

The blonde was happy to hear Kagome calling back to her. That meant a quick face-to-face with the girl right here and right now before Janis decided to go back to the Feudal Era herself to see all the friends she’d made back there when she was here before. Focus was quickly driven onto the form of the girl in a shrine priestess’ outfit(very fitting, by the way, god that girl looked good in priestess clothes) and she ran for her. “You bet it is!” Janis called back to her as they got closer and closer to each other before enveloping the Japanese girl in a big hug.

“So.... Datara gave me the Kamui.”

It had been such a long time since the girl had seen the people she had come to care about more than anything in the entire world, and she was planning to see them again. She’d hoped that, without a shadow of a doubt, life would give her exactly what she wanted. After all, it seemed that she was destined to go back. She had come to find that what power had been taken from her when she’d returned it to Datara so long ago… had come back to her. And, somehow, it seemed stronger and more powerful than when the impurity from the Sacred Jewel Shard had melted into her body. A week later, she’d found Akanemaru, the pole-spear that she had been given by the God of Habaki when her journey with her friends had officially started way back then. That was all the incentive she had needed to pack up a huge backpack full of snacks and modern amenities from the human world(she remembered the hassle it had been when she was travelling with Kagome back when she was 16) and went to the shrine where the Bone-Eater’s Well awaited her. When she saw it, her blood turned to ice and she froze. What if it didn’t do what she thought it would…? What if this plan was ridiculous? What if she wasn’t supposed to go back?

But her mind was set and made up and she was definitely ready for this.

So she jumped.

And something went terribly wrong.

She didn’t know exactly what it was, but when she emerged from the well, she knew that she wasn’t where she wanted to be. This wasn’t Kaede’s village, and this more than likely wasn’t the Feudal Era. Not only because people were giving the young blonde-haired and blue-eyed girl strange looks for her hair and eyes, but also for the pole-spear that she held close to her chest as a coping mechanism to keep her calm and centered in this moment of uncertainty. Of course, then she was approached by two men in what looked to be a police uniform. Was this the time period when modernization was just beginning? Because most of the other people around the area were still wearing hakamas and haoris and- well, it was just strange to see. So was this the Meiji Era, then? Because, if so, she was a century or two off the mark from the Feudal Era that she had been hoping to hit…

Crap.

Swords were released from their sheaths, the comforting sound of steel singing high into the night. Well, perhaps not so comforting for the unfortunate soul now standing at the end of the sharp, pristine edge, ready to pierce through the sad molecular layer of flesh standing in the way of vital organs. The officers eyed the odd presence before them, feet taking them in a steady pace through a wide circumference around her. One slow, measured step at a time. Their eyes never strayed from their careful observation of her, their hands never losing the intensity of the grip they held on their weapons, fully prepared to put them to use.

“Release your weapon.” One dared to penetrate the quiet of the moment, sword raised to shoulder height, the last fleeting warning he would give without words. In those uncertain times, words did little good. Actions spoke far louder and they would use those actions for the benefit of themselves. 

Where had this girl come from? They paced by the area just a moment ago, turning round to see the materialization of a form that hadn’t been there before. The unfamiliar did not resonate well within them, nor the unexpected. They would not tolerate being taken by surprise. Aggression was the best method for that business, to be sure!

“Get on your knees.” Spoke the partner, a steady rotation of their normal demands, giving her a chance to comply before brutal force was bestowed upon her. With the way their days had gone, they didn’t mind at all using said force to get what they wanted. It would unleash the pent up pressure compacted on the inside of their hearts. Not that it would do much good. Their days were riddled with challenges they hadn’t a chance to crest. … had to take victory where they could get it.

Raising their blades to a woman, even if she was armed? She didn’t even look like a threat. These guys must just be craving action of some kind. The blonde girl wasn’t really one to tolerate people who decided someone was a threat even if that person didn’t look like a threat. Though.. they were right to assume that Janis was. She put Akanemaru blunt end to the ground, and only looked to the police grunt nearest to her. Blue eyes flashed with a measure of unknown power that even this meager grunt should be able to see.

After dealing with demons and Gods, humans didn’t phase her nearly as much.

“Excuse me? Get on my knees in this outfit? I really don’t think so. Sorry, but I can’t cooperate with your orders.” She didn’t move, though, which included not dropping Akanemaru, as they had asked of her only moments ago. “Besides, Akanemaru here is my comfort. I’m not really familiar with the territory and this is helping me stay calm.”

@collectiveillusion

Continued from X.

Feet touched the ground, and she was looking around the area that she remembered thoroughly from her time here four years ago. She remembered Naraku, and the pain, and the hurt. She remembered Datara and meeting him, his servants. She remembered meeting Gods and Demons and people who she had come to care for. When she heard the person break through the brush, she was instantly on guard, but when she turned around.... her mind spoke a different story.

“Sesshomaru!” Her mind broke through the barrier of her guard and she stared in almost-awe, simple remembrance putting her into a trance as her memories drove her towards him somewhat. He had been a fair ally, and a powerful one. And she remembered that he had fought to protect someone. A little girl that she’d only met once after the incident where she’d met this demon lord. This man who was Inuyasha’s older brother. Her mind echoed with thoughts that she couldn’t stop from repeating everything she remembered from this era before she looked at him as he spoke.

“Yeah... I guess I have.” She said easily, then laughed to herself lightly before she focused big blue eyes on him. The girl had changed in the four years she had been gone. She’d obviously grown, to a point where she was very different from what the demon lord would remember. Her hair was slightly longer, she seemed to have been endowed a little bit better than she was when she was here last, and she was slightly taller. But her eyes... her eyes remained the same enchanting blue filled with curious light and life. Light... that lended itself towards the fact that maybe she still had the powers she was supposed to have lost when the Jewel Shard had been removed from her because Datara had taken her Kamui back.

“But I don’t want to talk about me... how are the others?” He might not answer that, and that was okay. He never had been much of a talker. But he had seemed to like her a little more than most other people she knew that he knew. That was always strange to her, because she remembered being taken aside by Inuyasha and told that Sesshomaru was ruthless and evil and mean. But she remembered also that Kagome had said different, because of Rin. That he wasn’t evil. Ruthless, maybe. But not evil and mean. He hadn’t killed Janis on sight. In fact, he had helped her live! It was that simple fact that kept Janis from running for the hills, even though this man was supposed to be a born killer. Now it was just a question of... what he wanted here.

If I hadn’t met you, I don’t think my life would be what it is now.

Happiness is never what you expect it to be, but I found it with all of you. I made my life with people I never thought I would know, and people I will always miss dearly.

Let me see you once more, and I will never let you go.
