My first Inuyasha/Sango story. Oh yeah I think I'm going to like this one.
Disclaimer-Rumiko Takahashi owns Inuyasha, not me. Trust me, you wouldn't want me to own Inuyasha.
Chapter One: Wishes Do Come True
It was a clear and sunny day. The clouds were thin streaks of white goodness on a crystal clear blue backdrop. The sun was a golden orb in the sky, giving off rays of hope and purity. The trees were swaying as a gentle breeze dropped by. The birds were nesting in the trees, singing songs of happiness.
Nothing could ruin this day, absolutely nothing.
"Hiraikotsu!" was all you could hear as the enormous boomerang weapon struck its target.
And as for the unlucky target?
It was an amazing demon. It took the full brunt of the Hiraikotsu and it was still able to stand.
The demon looked like a giant python mixed with a bear. It had the body and tail of the python, with the arms and legs of a black bear. It bared its fangs, showing that they were brimming with venom.
The liquid dripped off of one of the fangs and fell onto the undeserving ground below. As the venom dissipated, the spot where it once sat was replaced by a small hole.
(This demon has acid venom.) Sango thought as she caught her weapon as it returned to her waiting hand.
"Guys be careful! That demon's venom is acid, so don't get too close to it!" Sango informs her comrades. Taking down this demon was going to be more than they bargained for.
"You! Girl with the s-s-sacred jewel s-s-shards! Give them to me!" The demon hissed as it walked towards the group.
"Kagome! Get out of the way!" Miroku yelled, as the demon got closer.
"Miroku, protect Kagome! We'll take care of this reject!" Inuyasha says as he runs towards the reject.
"Wind Scar!" The hanyou yelled as his signature attack went flying into the demon.
"Damn you, hanyou!" the demon yelled as it reached to grab Inuyasha. Before the half demon could react, the Hiraikotsu came flying out of nowhere and took of the demon's right arm.
The one about to grab Inuyasha.
"Damn, you stupid wench! I'll kill you slayer!" He screamed as he turned to face the taijiya. He then used his tail to knock everyone off of their feet. As soon as he saw everyone hit the ground, he hit the ground as hard as he could with his tail; cause a large, gaping hole to appear.
Inuyasha, Miroku, Shippo, Kilala and Kagome fell into the hole before they could even comprehend what just happened. Before he fell in, Inuyasha saw the demon walk over towards Sango, and he knew he had to do something.
"Now slayer, are you ready to die?" he hissed as more venom dripped off his ivory fangs, seeped into the ground and left a hole behind.
"Oh, I'm not dying yet. And especially not by you." Sango replied as she took a charge towards the demon. He lifted up his tail to strike, but Sango jumped out of the way. As she was in the air, she came up with a plan.
The demon brought his tail down, only to get stabbed by Sango's katana. The blade pinned the demon's tail to the ground and now, this was Sango's chance. She readied her Hiraikotsu, but as she was about to throw it, the demon grabbed hold of her and started to squeeze her.
"And this is how I devour my prey!" the demon said, bearing his fangs once again. As Sango struggled to get free, the demon only held on tighter.
"Oh no you're not escaping me, my princess. I've finally got you!" As soon as he opened his mouth to eat Sango, a red blur was in the air above them.
"OH NO YOU DON'T! BETTER FIND YOUR MEAL SOMEPLACE ELSE!" Inuyasha yelled as he sliced off the demon's only remaining hand.
"Damn you half demon!"
"Wind Scar!" was the only thing left to say as the demon was decimated by the attack.
Miroku, Shippo and Kagome soon came out of the hole riding on Kilala. "Are you okay Sango?" was the question that came out of the young miko's mouth as she walked over to her best friend.
"Yeah, I'm fine. Thanks to Inuyasha."
"Sure, whatever. Hey, wait Sango. How could you let that demon capture you like that?" the hanyou asked, everyone now looking at Sango.
"I didn't let it catch me, he caught me off guard. Why do you want to know?" She answered, glaring at the half demon.
"Feh, no reason. I was just wonderin." And with that, Inuyasha started on the journey back to Kaede's.
The group was on their way back to Kaede's for the night as the sun began to set. The sky was a warm mix of oranges, golds and pinks as the lavender clouds faded from existence. The sun was on the horizon and the effects were stunning. A deafening silence fell upon the crew and Inuyasha was the one to break it.
"So Sango, do you always let demons catch you off guard? Or is it a one time thing?" He asked, still walking and looking forward. Sango looked at him from her position next to Kagome. He and Miroku were walking in front of the two young women. She looked at the hanyou, then the ground, then at Inuyasha once again.
"It was only a one time thing. Why are you still thinking about that anyway?"
"Maybe because I want to. And because that doesn't sound like you Sango." As she heard that, her eyes closed and she started to daydream until…
"It sounds pathetic." Sango's deep, dark chocolate eyes shot back open.
"Pathetic? Why do I have to be pathetic?" she said, glaring at the back of Inuyasha's head. If looks could kill, Inuyasha would have dropped dead by now.
"Because, how can a demon slayer-one of the best to have ever lived- let herself get caught up by a worthless demon?" he said, looking over his left shoulder as the taijiya.
"Ok so I made one mistake; big deal. But why do I have to be pathetic? I mean, at least I can take a punch." She said, feeling victorious. She closed her eyes once more, but opened them as soon as she ran into something.
"Inuyasha, why are you in front of me?" He said nothing. But he glared at her with golden orbs of anger.
"Since when couldn't I take a punch?" Sango then stood on her tippy toes, stared straight into his angry golden orbs with brown raging balls of fury.
"Since the day you were conceived." Then she stood at her normal height, walked around Inuyasha and caught up with the others. Inuyasha had a look of complete anger mixed with confusion and utter stupidity on his face.
"She's not getting away that easy."
The crew finally makes it to Kaede's hut. Inuyasha and Sango have finally stopped arguing and the peace has been restored to the crew.
"Now maybe we can have a peaceful night without all the anger." Kagome says as she lights the fire in the hut. Miroku and Shippo went to go get more firewood and Sango and Kilala went fishing. So the only ones left were Kagome and Inuyasha.
"Keh." Kagome gave him an agitated look.
"Why are you looking at me like that? Sango started it."
"No, you started it. If you would have just left the whole thing about the demon go, you two would have no problems."
"I did let it go. I just wanted to know what happened to her, that's all."
"Inuyasha, Sango's a professional demon slayer. She can handle herself in battle. There's no reason to worry about her." Inuyasha looked at her with questionable eyes.
"Unless…." Then it hit her like funk on a skunk. Kagome then knew why Inuyasha was worried about Sango.
"Unless what? What were you about to say Kagome?"
"Oh nothing. Don't worry about it Inuyasha."
Just then the others came back with their supplies. "We found a lot of firewood out there!" Shippo proclaims as he and Miroku set the firewood down near the stove.
"That's good because Kilala and I caught a lot of fish." Sango announces as she and Kilala walk in with a boatload of fish.
"You guys did good job fishing. Come on Sango, let's help Kaede start cooking." So the girls leave and the boys start to talk.
"Hey Inuyasha. Why did you bother Sango about her fight with the demon?" Miroku asks as his sapphire eyes drifted from the floor to the hanyou.
"Because I just felt like it. Why do you wanna know?"
"No reason. I was just asking."
"I'm glad you guys stopped arguing. It was starting to give me a headache." Shippo adds as he plays with Kilala. Kaede, Kagome, and Sango soon came in with the food and they all start to enjoy dinner.
Some of them enjoyed dinner though.
A little while later…"Some people need to learn how to protect themselves." Inuyasha said as he broke the silence that covered the area. His golden gaze rose up from his plate, and met with two angry, rage filled brown eyes.
Sango's rage filled eyes.
"And some people need to learn how to stop criticizing others." she shot back.
"Well, if some people knew how to fight, there'd be no reason to criticize."
"If some people would stop trying to be the hero all the time, the other people would be able to fight." Kagome, Miroku, Kaede, Kilala, and Shippo all watched as the demon slayer and the half demon duked it out with words.
"What on Earth are they arguing about?" Kaede asked, leaning over to Miroku.
"Lady Kaede, it's a long story. We'll just have to tell you later." Miroku answered as he turned to watch the scene unfolding.
"What do you mean I'm always trying to be the hero?!" Inuyasha asked, his voice growling louder.
"What do you mean I need to learn how to fight?" Sango asked, her voice growing just as loud. They both slammed their plates on the floor and glared at each other.
"Maybe if you weren't always trying to show off Sango, you'd never get captured!"
"Oh so now I'm the show off?! Inuyasha, you've got your nerve!"
"What's that supposed to mean?!"
"Every time we go into battle, you always charge in first. Your ego's bigger than your brain!"
"What are they talking about? I kind of zoned out for a minute." Miroku whispers to Kagome.
"Well, Inuyasha told Sango that she needs to learn how to fight., while Sango told Inuyasha that he needs to stop trying to be the hero all the time. Inuyasha sounds mean, but in actuality, he kinda likes Sango. This is one of his ways of showing how he cares for her." Miroku was confused.
"By arguing with her?"
"Yes. Inuyasha likes Sango, it looks like she has no interest in him whatsoever."
"Wow Kagome. You really know these kinds of things."
"Yeah, I don't watch General Hospital for nothing."
"You know what Sango?"
"What?!"
"I wish you never joined up with us! I don't know what I was thinkin, letting a girl like you travel with me!"
"Inuyasha, the feeling's mutual! Your wish is my command! I'll leave right just for you to shut up!!" Sango grabs her Hiraikotsu. "Come on Kilala. We're leaving!" Kilala replied a simple 'mew' and followed after her mistress.
"Goodbye everyone. It was so wonderful meeting you all." And with that, the demon slayer left; for good.
"Inuyasha, aren't you going to go after her?" Shippo asked, feeling the tension in the room dissolve.
"No! The brat's gone and we can continue searching for Naraku without her."
"But what if she gets into trouble?" Kagome's brown eyes are met with mad ass gold ones.
"I could give a rat's ass what happens to her."
So, how did you like it so far? Good? Bad? Awesome? Well, drop a review and tell me how you feel. Adios!
