InuYasha or Inu Yasha (depending on how you want to spell it):

The Past Returns

Chapter 1: Don't promise unfaithful promises.

Story takes place: *see note at the bottom

The story so far/summery: An old friend of Sango's suddenly appears and Miroku isn't too happy with it. Will this bring out the worst in Miroku? Or the best in Sango? Or could this be the end for them all?

Disclaimer: I don't own InuYasha the story, the plot, or characters. They belong to the wonderful and talented Rumiko Takahashi-sama. So please don't sue me! However I do own this story plot thing . unless someone else did and I don't know about it, so yeah .

@@@ Konnichiwa mina-san! It's is my first IY fic. I've posted. Please tell me if you're confused on my spelling and/or grammar (I'm not the best) and please be nice and review! @@@

"Will you bare my child?" Sango gave a long sigh as she heard the ever-famous question being asked to three of the local village women. It was a nice afternoon in the village with it's few villagers passing by going about their usual business.

They had been resting here for a few days after a battle with Naraku that left InuYasha with a few minor cuts, scrapes, and he's usual suborn attitude. But did this stop the hentai monk from hitting on girls? No! Course not why would it? Sango thought to herself.

The village woman seemed to be taking back by this question as were most that were asked the question. But this time one of them stepped up. She had dark brown hair in a side bun, green eyes and wore a red kimono. "I will." She replied wuth a smile, as one of the women stood there in shocked and the other one giggled.

"Well then..." Miroku began before he realized someone else was watching him. Sango gave him an evil deadly glare before she turned to wake off into the nearby forest. Out of all the girls that could have seen it, why Sango? Miroku gave a sigh when he realized she had been watching him. If he would've known that he would never done it.

He figured he better go off and apologize for his behavior. So he told the girl's it was a joke and he was really sorry. The one that said she would bare his child seemed to be disappointed, but that didn't matter to Miroku now. All that did was how Sango was and if she was the one disappointed.

Sango, who was now rested up against a tree thought to herself. 'That houshi-sama... who does he think he is? Going up to every woman he sees and asking them to bare his child. And then had the nerve to asked me to raise a family with him?! Except for that time. I'm not even sure if he's asked me to bare his child yet! He's even asked Kagome at lease four times! The only thing he does to me is... is... I don't even want to think about!!!'

She began to claim down and continued her thoughts. 'Maybe I'm not meant for anybody... Maybe I'll just live along my whole life... Wait a second! I'm sounding like that perverted monk is the only chioce I have! Ha! I'll marry InuYasha before-'

"Ano... do you mind if I sit here?" Sango's thoughts were interrupted suddenly by Miroku. Who was looking and gesturing at the right side of her asking if he could sit down there. She hesitated for a moment before sighing and then saying, "Fine." He sat down and she scooted over a few inches knowing he'd do something funny.

They both sat there in silence listening to the streem near by before Miroku said. "I'm sorry for what happen."

"Don't be." Sango said. Before she began to speak her mine.

"What you did back there is none off my business and you shouldn't make it my business. However..." she stopped for a moment before saying. "If you didn't want me to marry you. You should have never proposed! I don't mind that you don't want me as you wife but I don't like it when someone leads me on like that. I have feelings! And feather more you even implied that you'd see other women if we were married! I know that's why you implied you'd cheat on me so I wouldn't say yes! You didn't have to ask me that question just to make me feel better."

Sango then got up and began to walk away before she stopped, still having her back facing the stunned monk, who still hadn't gotten in more then one sentance in the whole conversation. "Don't love me because you pity me. Love me because of who I am." She then turned around to face Miroku. Her eyes were now filled with sadness. "Do me a favor Houshi-sama don't lie to me about things like that again."

She walk off before she could hear Miroku say softly "I didn't..." then was carried away into the wind...

@@@ So what did you think? It was only the first chapter and the plot isn't really in play yet but I just thought this was a great start! What do you think? Please let me know!!! Please! @@@

* This story takes past shortly after volume 30 of the manga. Or maybe a little later. I'm not sure but if you have read "A Special Girl" then you'll understand what's going on with the 'proposal' thing in this story but if not it's not to hard to follow. I suggest reading it from 'Inuyasha Sengokuo-Togi Zoushi' There's no pictures but it has a wonderful translation for it and all of the IY Manga so far. I don't have the foggiest idea were it would be/take place as far as the anime goes. I don't even think that part of the manga is in anime form yet!
