Author’s Notes:

Thanks guys for the reviews both on FF.net and by e-mail. Sorry it’s taking so long, but real life intrudes sometimes.

Also I’ll like to give special thanks to Lightning, Naoko Cat Girl and Telosphilos for the wonderful job they did editing the chapter. You were great and fast thanks a lot again.

I also made my first attempt at an anime music video; I just finished it and would have it available through grokster, morpheous or Kazaa (It’s already available here, because I still have to upload it on the following places.) Streamload, http://www.animemusicvideos.org, and my own page. I only used footage from the 1^st and 2^nd. Eps. It’s kind of an introduction for Kagome of the Sengoku Jidai in Axel Rose’s voice (Guns N’ Roses Welcome to the Jungle) the song is old but I thought it fit just marvelously. Anyway it’s just a first attempt, and I’m already planning a few more. The name is: Inuyasha – GNR – Welcome to the Jungle(Short).avi

Before I go on I’m making a mailing list to inform you of updates, if you want to be included please tell me on the review.

Anyway here is the chapter, hope you like it.

Title: Apprentice: Chapter 8 (09/?)
Author: Animealam
Rating: PG-13
Pairing: None yet, previous Snape/OC
Warnings: Violence, child abuse, manipulative but not evil Dumbledore, OOC-ness.
Disclaimer: Nope, doesn’t belong to me. I only play with them a bit.
Summary: The war had been over for several years, and Harry’s life did not turn out the way he expected it. He ended leaving England and travelling the world. That’s where death found him, but he was the Master of the Hollows and second chances were a given. He would not waste them.

Aditional Warnings:

THIS IS AN AU STORY (AUAlternate Universe), even though I try to follow the original novels as close as I can.

Not a native English speaker writing.

Characters might be Out Of Character (OOC)

There might be spoilers for all books.

Author Note: When I started writing this story, book five was not yet out.

I have decided to include details from the fifth book, not may and not yet, but there will be certain aspects of the book included.

Author Note: Well finally it’s here. Chapter eight, I hope you like it.

To some Severus might sound slightly OOC, but my beta Aphy and I believe there is enough explanation to his behaviour in this and the other chapters to justify the changes.

I can’t promise I’ll update this soon, but I’m working on the next chapter for all the stories I have pending. So will try to get something up soon.

I’d like to thank Aphy for betaing this chapter. The explanations were great

Author Note: Sorry for the delay, I was ill for a while and then I found out I had some inconsistencies in my proposed timeline for the story, so I’ve been trying to correct them and get them to work with the plot.

betaed this chapter, and I’m looking for a new beta if there is anyone interested please e-mail me at the account in my profile.

Well here is the next chapter. I hope you like it.

I have decided to include details from the fifth book, not may and not yet, but there will be certain aspects of the book included.

Author Note: After much thinking, I have decided to include details from the fifth book, how much will depend on how the plot is working. But so far, in what I have already plotted in my notebooks, there will be more than I originally thought. It’s really working great, even though this will definitely remain an AU.

For those who disliked (or liked) toad-woman Umbridge, she will be making an appearance in later chapters. I had planned on creating a character that would have a similar role anyway, so why not use the one that J.K. Rowling had already created? And I barely have to change a few things of what I had already plotted.

I had originally planned to break this chapter in two but since I took so long in updating I decided to leave the 18 pages it is in one file. I’m also already working on typing the next chapter so with luck I won’t take as long.

In this chapter some things will be explained, so it’s not one filled with a lot of action. This is to keep building a background and also explain things that will be happening in later chapters.

Also Phoenix Angel, please e-mail me if you’re still interested in beta‘ing’ this fic for me. I had some problems with my e-mail program (my own fault for not backing up and experimenting with the stuff) and lost all my archived e-mails and addresses.

For the reason above, this chapter is not beta‘ed’, although I did as much proof-reading as I could some errors might have slipped past either MSWord’s grammar/spell checker or myself.

Title: Present Time: The Re-Write 5/?
Series: Inuyasha
Author: animealam (a.k.a. alandrem)
Rating: This chapter is R
Warnings: AU, Some characters may be a bit OOC. Violence, the mention of drug use, attempted rape, and bad language. The characters are OOC. This story will live up to the M rating as I plan to add a bit more violence and/or gory details. I believe the original version was a bit mild in that respect. I knew that later on there would be some rather gory scenes as telosphilos and I originally planned, so I decided that adding a bit more description to certain scenes would only enhance the story. This warning will be in every chapter to avoid problems even though not all have violence or gory scenes.
Summary: Inuyasha discovers the present is more dangerous than he was led to believe.
Disclaimer: I do not own Inuyasha. Although I’ll probably add a couple more characters of my own imagination.

Author’s Note: From the start I believed this chapter was not really complete, I felt it needed more police interaction, and more background for the police characters. But I was not really inclined then to modify what I already had because it would probably change some things later on. Now though, with the rewrite, I have the opportunity to do since I’m already doing modifications to the story. I hope you like how this chapter turned out. I personally like it much better.

I did a bit of research on the web, and I found some information about ranks in Tokyo Metropolitan Police. But the information was not clear enough for me to use them, so I’m going to keep the system I originally used. It’s an Americanized version, and for that I apologize. I really would have loved to introduce into the story some actual facts of about the Japanese police system. It would have added some more realism.

The original chapter was 5,594 words. This chapter is 8,710. I’m not counting the author notes.
