Chapter 1: Why?
~Taiji-ya Village~
Kagome walks to the doorway of a cabin, "Sango? Are you in here?" she asks as she moves the curtain-like door to one side.
"Hm?" Sango responds, turning to face toward the doorway, "Is something wrong, Kagome-chan?"
Kagome breathes a sigh of relief, "Sango-chan, Are you... alright?" she ventures carefully.
"I'm fine." the female slayer replies, looking back at her large boomerang, "I was just wondering what caused the Hiraikotsu to act of its own accord."
Kagome walks over to the other girl and kneels down next to her, "That's not what I meant." she says, "I was talking about--"
"Kohaku." Sango interrupts, closing her eyes momentarily, "I told you, I made a choice that I would make again, given the same circumstance." she smiles slightly, "At least, He died as his old self, and not as Naraku's puppet."
"You understand?" Sango asks, turning to face the young miko from the modern world, only to find that she has her head down and her eyes closed. "Kagome-chan." she says, placing her left hand on the girl's right shoulder. Kagome raises her head to look at the older girl. "It's alright." Sango adds, smiling.
"... okay." responds Kagome, managing a smile in return.
Kagome stands and starts toward the door, "I'm sorry, Sango-chan. But," she says, turning her head back toward the female slayer, "I have to ask, why?"
"Uh," Sango responds, looking away, "I believe it's because--"
-From Outside- "Who are you!?" they hear Inuyasha's voice say, "What do you want!"
Both girls run outside to see what's happening... they see a warrior with mid-back length silver hair fixed in a low ponytail, clad in a black cloak and kneeling next to the dead body of Kohaku(yep, the group took his body back to the taiji-ya village to bury him with the others that lived there). The obviously male warrior has his head bowed, his eyes closed and his right hand infront of him, his thumb towards himself.
"Hey! I'm talkin to you!!" Inuyasha growls.
The black-clad warrior raises his head and lowers his right hand, then stands and turns toward the group, opening his narrow copper-colored eyes. "I was merely paying my respects to a fallen warrior." he says.
A gust of wind blows, causing the warrior's cloak to wave outward in the breeze and reveal the black outfit he's wearing under it.
"That is a taiji-ya's uniform!" Sango states, surprizing the others.
"Say what!?" questions Miroku.
"You are very intelligent." the male warrior responds, "You are obviously the one called, Sango."
Suddenly, Kirara transforms into her tiger-form and runs at the unknown warrior.
"Kirara!" Sango shouts after the cat-demon.
"Kirara! Stop!" the black-clad warrior says, holding out his right hand.
The cat-demon does stop, growls a couple times then walks closer to the warrior and allows him to rub her head.
"She must know him." Sango says, then asks the warrior, "Who are you?"
"My name is Debirusuke." the man replies, "And once, a very long time ago, I was a taiji-ya." he walks past Kirara and closer to the group.
"Debirusuke?" questions Sango, slightly surprized.
"Sango-chan?" Kagome asks, "Do you know him?"
"Yes." the female slayer replies, "He was a legend within the taiji-ya village. The only demon ever to become a demon slayer."
"You are correct, Sango-san." Debirusuke says, "Unfortunately, That is no longer the case. I have a debt to pay to the one who freed me from my imprisonment, Naraku."
"So. You are in league with that bastard!" Inuyasha says, gripping the handle of Tetsusaiga.
"Unfortunately, Yes." Debirusuke replies, "But, Today is not a day to battle. A warrior has died, and his death should be respected." he bows to the group respectfully then turns and begins walking away, "However, I do intend to kill each of you." he adds, "I look forward to doing battle with you all."
'What was that all about?' wonders Kagome.
"Why did he not attack?" questions Miroku, not really to anyone.
"It is a matter of honor." Sango says, "Something you would know nothing about, houshi!"
~Taiji-ya Village/that night~
"What were you about to say earlier?" Kagome asks Sango.
"Hm?" responds Sango.
"You were going to tell me why you chose to save me." Kagome says, "All you got to say was, 'I believe it's because...'."
"Well..." Sango replies, turning her head to face the floor, "I think I... may be in love with you, Kagome-chan." a light blush appears on her cheeks.
"R-really?" asks Kagome, shocked as a blush begins to cross her cheeks.
"I'm unsure. I have never been in love before." Sango replies, still looking at the floor and blushing, "But, I do know that I have strong feelings for you." she closes her eyes.
Sango then feels Kagome's arms wrap around her waist from behind and she opens her eyes, turning her head and using her eyes to look back at the younger girl, "Kagome-chan?"
"I didn't know how to tell you but," Kagome says, "I have strong feelings for you too, Sango-chan. Whether, or not, it's love..." she smiles, "I guess we'll just have to discover that together."
Sango turns her head back forward and Kagome closes her eyes, then lays her head against Sango's back, still smiling. Sango smiles as well.
