Chapter2

I don't own InuYasha.

The story on hand, ‚The deal' is fan-fiction. I wrote it, because I love to write, but I will not use 'The deal' in any commercial way.

"May I sit down?"

"Hm."

Kagome sat herself next to Sango and looked over to her friend.

"Nice weather today."

No answer.

"I didn't like the rain during the last few days."

Sango rolled her eyes, "Oh, come on! Please stop that!"

Kagome grinned at her: "What's up, Sango? Miroku really didn't do anything wrong, at least not this time."

"Hm."

"Yes?"

I don't want to tell you. I don't want to!

"Whatever."

"I won't leave you until you tell me the story."

I know. I love you for that... But I can't! Not this time.

"I had a bad start to the day, that's all."

"You could tell me, I'll always listen to you."

Sango sighed, "I know. It's nothing really. Not worth talking about."

"Hm… your decision, but if you change your mind, you know where I am," Kagome said and walked away.

The bad feeling in her stomach didn't dissapear. The worst part was that she couldn't talk to anybody about what had happened. If she told Kagome about Naraku's proposal, the miko would certainly warn the boys. If that happened, she decided in advance to search for another solution than lose one of them by murder. A solution, that perhaps wasn't there. The longer she went over the scenario in her mind, she recognized the horrible truth: There was no other way.

She had to cooperate with Naruku. InuYasha was too weak to fight the demon. It was the only chance for her to get her brother back.

She felt her cheeks become red with shame just thinking about it. Never! She could never kill any of her friends.

Yet in the past, Naraku had never been as easy to defeat as she hoped. He had always been able to control situations, no matter how hard the group tried to resist him.

It was more than Sango could stand.

Did she have to do, what Naraku asked of her to get her brother back?

No, she would never give in to him. Never… But…

She sighed and looked up at the blue sky and the bright sun.

She heard a noise behind her. Sango turned around and saw Miroku, who stood before her and looked at her diffidently, "Eh…"

Sango gave him a short glance.

"I… I don't know, what I did, but I'm sorry."

She smiled slightly. Sometimes he was really cute, "Hm. Didn't Kagome tell you this was a bad time to talk to me?"
"No… yes… eh… I thought, if I could talk to you we could end this problem before it begins."

The problem is that I was told to kill you, stupid monk!

"There's no problem, houshi-sama."

"When you told me to be quiet it sounded like there was a problem."

"Just had a bad morning. I even told that to Kagome."

"I didn't know that you were so aggressive when you woke up on the wrong side of the bed."

She rolled her eyes, "Sometimes I am, monk."

"Hm."

"Don't believe me?"

He folded his arms and gave her a skepitacal glance, "No, I don't, Sango."

She smiled, "See, I really just had a bad dream and I didn't want to tell you about it."

"But…"

"Monk! Please shut up!" She sighed and walked away.
