Summary: It is said that a journal can help one open their soul. But when it comes to some of these anime characters, do we really want to see whats in their souls? (Each chapter from a different character's POV. Characters from varying anime/manga.)

Chapter 1: Miroku

Dear Journal,

Kagome-sama said that keeping a journal can be fun and aid me in, as she put it, 'getting things off my chest'. Not that I have anything on my chest, if I was to carry something, it would be on my back. I think it would be rather diffucult to carry a burden on my chest, most uncomfortable.

I asked Kagome-sama what I was supposed to write about and she told me I could write about anything that was on my mind. So naturally, I shall write about Sango. She's always on my mind. Her ebony hair, her chocolate brown eyes, her perfectly curved-

The said object of my affection was reading over my shoulder when I wrote that, I now bear a red handprint on my face as proof. As I was saying, Sango is by far the most beautiful, elegant, graceful, powerful, adorable, affectionate, sensual lady I have ever met...

InuYasha was just reading over my shoulder. I do not understand why he is laughing. He just doesn't understand women. I pity the hanyou. He may have somehow won Kagome-sama's affections, but with Kikyou in the picture, the relationship can only last so long. That wolf demon, Kouga, isn't helping any either.

Heh heh, look at me. I am going on about my companions' love affairs like one of those modern psychiatrists Kagome-sama told me about.

Speaking--or is it writing?--of Kagome-sama, she seems to be rather touchy as of late. I think she has been eating too much of that 'sugar' that Shippou is so fond of. Her rear definitely seems to be getting...how can I put this politely? Plumper? I guess that works. But, it's not like I've been looking at her rear--Sango's is far more interesting--InuYasha mentioned it one night while the girls were bathing in a nearby hot spring.

I asked InuYasha if he disliked the idea of Kagome-sama getting "plumper". He became unusually flustered. I have to admit, it was quite amusing. I couldn't stop laughing, and the more I laughed the more InuYasha blushed. When the girls returned, they asked why I was laughing and why InuYasha's face was the color of a tomato. I was going to answer them, but InuYasha gave me one of his imfamous death glares, and thus I chose to keep my life and limb and leave the girls lost and confused.

Now, I seem to be rambling on about the most trivial things. Kagome- sama told me journals were most commonly used to record a day's events and your feelings about said events. Therefore, I shall now record some of the happenings of today.

I awoke this morning to find the campfire had died hours ago and I could easily view Sango's sleeping form no more than a few meters away. That's a sight I hope to wake up to every morning.

When I said this to Sango, she slapped me. Sometimes I don't understand her, I was trying to be romantic and poetic. Women can be so complicated, it takes an experienced monk like myself to handle them.

Men like InuYasha should be no where in the vacinity of lovely ladies, he's too uncivilized. Sesshoumaru is far too cold and distant for any woman to fall for him, plus he is a murderous demon, which does not help. Shippou is a bit young for love, although I did notice he has been keen on watching young village girls on our journey. Kouga is proof that Kagome-sama's statement that "Chivalry is dead" is untrue, the young wolf has quite good manners for someone who lives in a cave and wears furs.

Yet again I have gotten quite off track. So, this morning, after all of us had broken our fast together, we headed out on the trail of another jewel shard. It was not difficult to find, as it was embedded in the body of a leopard demon who was on a village-eating rampage. InuYasha quickly disposed of the spotted menace with Tetsusaiga and Kagome-sama took the jewel shard for safe keeping. Just as we were completing the task of burying the villagers, none other than the wind witch Kagura flew overhead. InuYasha wanted to follow her and kill Naraku once and for all, Kagome-sama was nervous about the idea. Sango and I both knew it had to be a trap.

And indeed it was. Naraku nearly destroyed us all. If it had not been for Kagome-sama's purifying arrows, we would have surely died in the miasma Naraku had surrounded us in. Except, it was not Naraku, it was yet again a mere puppet. It makes me worry at times, if we were nearly bested by a simple puppet, how powerful is the real Naraku?

After the run in with Naraku's minions, the day became rather dull. Well, until Kouga came along. He must have picked up Kagome-sama's scent while tracking Kagura. As usual, he and InuYasha exchanged rude insults, InuYasha took a few badly aimed swings at Kouga, Kouga dodged with relative ease, Kouga announced his undying love for Kagome-sama and left.

Does he ever change his routine? Its grown to be very predictable, and rather boring for Sango and I to watch. We need a change in entertainment.

Speaking of entertainment. I became quite bored this afternoon. I managed to bribe Shippou into putting on a show for us. With the aid of some of Kagome-sama's clothing, Shippou acted out a story Kagome-sama read to him. It was called "The Three Bears". It was very amusing to see Shippou dressed in women's clothing and talking in a high, squeaky--well higher and squeakier than usual--voice, then suddenly changing into another outfit and speaking in a deep, gruff voice. Yes, indeed, these modern stories are quite entertaining.

Lady Kaede arrived in time to see the last part of Shippou's act. I think she was disturbed by the kitsune's antics. But that is not why she came to see us. She had news of a nearby village being tormented by a demon.

How many nearby villages are there that are tormented by demons? Far too many! These poor villagers really must learn to defend themselves. How have they lasted this long in the first place? The world is teeming with demons, afterall.

When we arrived at the village, we were too late. Most of the village was in ruins and the residents were either dead or long gone. The demon was a simple,easily destroyed, rat demon. It seemed almost a waste to travel even that short a distance to dispose of such a mediocore creature.

Again, we had to bury the villagers and say their last rites so their souls could pass on peacefully. I truly must develop a new prayer, chanting the same one over and over can make it seem quite meaningless, which in turn questions my faith, and I do not like questioning my faith.

It is said that when one questions their faith, they are truly faithless? But if they are faithless, how can they question their faith in the first place? It is all very confusing, I have comtemplated it many times before and earned horrid headaches as a reward.

Another thing that gives me headaches is definitely the constant bickering between Kagome-sama and InuYasha. Do they ever stop? That's an easy answer... no! On and on they argue, and about the most trivial and pointless things too! Like today, for example, Kagome-sama got upset that InuYasha did not confess his love to her like I do to Sango. Do they have to drag poor Sango into this, as well as me? And then InuYasha, Mr. Idiotic Arguement himself, snapped at Kagome-sama, yelling something about not needing to confess anything because if she wasn't so stupid she would know how he felt. Big mistake. The poor, ignorant hanyou was slammed into the ground with a quick command from Kagome-sama. And thus, another useless, breathwasting arguement came to a violent close.

Well, I think I shall call it a night, because it is night. And quite late at that. Everyone is asleep already. Its unusually quiet and peaceful at this hour. I believe I will go to sleep now, dreaming of Sango. Good night, journal. Its been fun.

Sango's one and only someone, Miroku.

=====================================================

Well, what do you think? So, tell me who you want to see next time. I must know the character well, if you don't know what character to choose, look up the contestants from my fic 'Anime Weakest Link', I know each of them well and I will be more than happy to write a journal for them. Make sure to put your suggestion in your review.
