ANYTHING FOR A MEMORY OF HIM

Disclaimer: InuYasha was created by Rumiko Takahashi and not me. This is simply a piece of fan fiction that I thought others might enjoy. I have no intention of messing with the story in anyway.

Chapter 1: A Loving Couple

Over the weeks, after Miroku promised he'd marry Sango once Naraku was dead, Sango and Miroku got closer together. They spent as much time together as possible and Miroku even slowed down his pervertedness! They were in love and to Kagome and InuYasha it was so obvious, they had known that it would happen eventually. Everyone became happier and the sun seemed to shine more.

Miroku and Sango sat on the hill overlooking Kaede's village. Sango leaned against Miroku's chest and sighed. She looked up into his big handsome eyes. Miroku looked down upon her beautiful face. Sango is the most beautiful woman I've ever met. I can't believe that she has fallen in love with someone like me... She's perfect and I love her he thought as he leaned down to kiss her. Sango leaned forward and their lips touched for a long luxurious and passionate kiss.

A rustle came from the bushes as InuYasha appeared. He grimaced at the scene and sat beside them. They stopped kissing and looked toward InuYasha. "Would you two get a room it's sickening... every time Kagome and I see you, you are always lovey dovey." Sango blushed and hid her face in Miroku's chest. Miroku looked at InuYasha and smirked then he signaled him to leave them alone for awhile. Inuyasha was just leaving through the shrubs when Sango spoke up. "How's Kagome doing? Has her stomach ache gone away yet?" She said. InuYasha turned around. "She's a bit better but she's sleeping for awhile. I'll go back and check on her." InuYasha said with concern in his voice. He then turned and left them all alone.

The sun beat down on them and Miroku lifted his face towards it while Sango fell asleep on his shoulder. Kirara curled up on his lap and started to purr. Recently Kirara had begun to like Miroku, probably because Sango loved him so much and they always spent time together.

Sango stirred and awoke on Miroku's shoulder a few hours later. She moved and looked at him. He had fallen asleep sitting up as not to make Sango uncomfortable. She saw Kirara, who was now asleep as well, lying in Miroku's lap. Oh Hoshi-sama, if only you knew exactly how much you mean to me. I love you so much more then I show... I'm just so afraid that you are too good for me and that you might some day leave. I couldn't bare the thought of living without you. A single tear ran down Sango's face and landed on Miroku's shoulder, waking him up. He looked at her and brushed some of the tears from her face. "Sango what's wrong?" He said in a soft and concerned voice. She burst into tears at the horrible thought of not being with Miroku. He looked at her and put his arms gracefully around her, holding her close to him for comfort. He leaned in close to her ear. "I love you and I will never leave you." He whispered as if he knew exactly what she had been thinking. She looked up at him, eyes and tears sparkling in the sun. A smile formed on her lips and she hugged him.

Miroku looked at Sango and said softly, "Let's go for a walk, shall we?" She nodded her head and they rose hand in hand. They walked for a long while. When they reached the god tree they sat down for a rest. The sun shown through the leaves making the shadows dance along the ground. The birds were singing and crickets chirping. It was about mid-day and the air was fresh. Sango and Miroku sat near the god tree in an embrace that could last forever. They were so in love. They sat staring in each others eyes in silence, enjoying the company of one another.

A shadowy figure stared at the two love birds from behind a tree. Look at those pathetic humans. Enjoy your time together for you shall be dead soon... I think I'll have fun this time seeing as that stupid Hanyou isn't around.

Across from the shadowy figure InuYasha walked out of the trees. He headed for the couple. He looked down at them. "Feh, why are you always so mushy it's horrible! Anyway, Kagome is fine now she's just getting some more sleep. We shouldn't be sitting around like this! We should be finding Naraku and slaughtering him!" He said with an evil glint in his eye on that last sentence.

At that moment a horde of demons and poisonous bees came toward them from the sky. They armed themselves as they prepared for battle. Seeing as how InuYasha had accidentally left his Tetsega with Kagome he stretched out his claws. The Battle began, and as they fought the demons Kagura left her hiding place. She sent a blade of wind hurtling in the direction of the three friends.

Kagome woke with a start. She could hear the sounds of fighting in the distance. She rose from her bed, grabbed her bow and ran out of Kaede's hut towards the forest.
