Summer Lilies

A/N: This is a Sango and Kohaku story.

Sango sat at the end of the hill, the hot summer's heat was provided with a kind and gently breeze as Sango looked up at the warm sky, the heat radiating off her face. She had the afternoon off from Naraku, all to herself…well basically.

Shippo, Inuyasha and Kagome were scrimmaging around the village looking for rumors of shickon shards, or demons that could possibly have any. Miroku was no doubt flirting with the women of the village asking the famous question of his "Will you bear my child?" Sango sighed rolling over to her stomach the grass tickling her face; it had been so long since she had laid peacefully with nothing on her mind, with no worries.

Sango stared at the grass; it was so unusually she didn't quite understand it, looking up a younger version of herself running around with her younger brother Kohaku, a smile plastered to both there faces, as Sango's mother embraced her children falling down to the ground, a child on both arms.

Sango smiled slightly, as the image faded from view, her smile turning into a frown. "I wonder what Kohaku's doing…" Sango questioned sadly looking up at the hot sun as if the answer lay up within the clouds. When she was younger she dreamed of touching the clouds, walking across there softness, dancing with the wind, tasting the sun, but that old dream was just a memory for Sango now as she stood to find her companions.

Kohaku walked alone through the woods quickly, stopping at a clear stream, he could see fish near the bottom, smiling as he splashed some water on his face, the hot summer sun being unbearable not offering any passing breeze in the forest protection, even the shade provided little coolness for the young boy.

Kohaku sat down as he looked into the water, a smaller image of his sister and him smiling her voice calling over to him. "Look Kohaku! He ran away!" Sango said smiling, stepping back as I called out confidentially "Leave it to me!" I dove for the fish falling flat on my back, the cool watering me as heard the village men chuckling. Kirara sticking her paw into the water bringing a silver fish up to the ground with ease as Sango and myself burst into a fit of giggles.

Kohaku stood slowly, turning his head away from the stream, "Annue…" Kohaku spoke bitterly, his voice filled with pain as he gripped his chain sickle firmly at his waist. 'Why was he continuously hurting his sister? And following after this bastard's orders?' Kohaku had originally stayed with Naraku mainly for the fact to forget the memories that he knew to clearly.

The boy walked on farther angrily, his sister was the only thing on his mind. He couldn't get his sisters saddened face away, no matter what he thought. She had always been so happy when the village was alive, clapping with joy, she was a happy, and a proud warrior, and now he had not seen her smile once when she saw him. 'Then again…She doesn't know does she? That I remember everything…' Kohaku thought walking into the opening her sister being on top of the hill with her friends, the Inuyasha people.

"Sango-chan!" He heard the strange female call out, the one who was called 'Kagome' the one he had been sentenced the kill, when he had no control, and that was the bad part, now…now it was his fault.

Kohaku looked at his sister's saddened face, not even with them she looked happy, Kohaku reached his hand as he clutched a nearby tree, there was no reassurance that they'd ever be together again, and he'd never be able to tell her he was sorry, Kohaku closed his eyes wet tears brimming them.

"Kill…Sango…' A low voice whispered in Kohaku's mind.

"No…." Kohaku whispered touching his head gingerly, he had faked being controlled doing everything to help Naraku without getting to far carried away, he could never kill his sister.

"Do you disobey me Kohaku?" His voice was louder now echoing in Kohaku's mine as the Samiosho buzzed around Kohaku, one landing firmly on his back.

"If I remove the shard you die Kohaku, kill Sango." Naraku's voice spoke coldly causing Kohaku to shiver, the shard in his back glowing as Kagome's eyes bolted towards where Kohaku stood.

"Kohaku!" Sango cried as Kohaku's eyes turned to a lifeless brown.

Authors note: Sorry it's not to long, but ever since I saw the episode with Kohaku, Sango, and Kirara the secrect garden, I had to dedicate this one story that's based on around that one memory including a few other selected memories, do you think it's worth finishing? RR
