Chapter 3- Curiosity Killed the Cat

" We should go back to the village and rest now."Miroku told the tired Demond slayer while laying a hand on her shoulder.

"We've been searching all night long, Sango you look tired."

The monk tried to help the woman out of the river , but she stubbornly yanked her arm away.

"Release me Monk I will NOT leave until Kagome is found dead or alive!"She bit out her voice laced with pain.

Miroku couldn't but feel sympathetic for the slayer she had lost nearly everything ,because of the vile demon known as Naraku.

Her whole village was slain, her brother was used as a mere puppet for his sick games, and now losing Kagome who was like her sister.

The exterminator was at her breaking point.

"Sango we can come back and search for her later if you stay in the water any longer I'm afraid you will catch a cold!"The Monk reasoned.

"You might as well forget talking any sense into her Monk Sango is as thick headed as that Mangy wolf."Inuyasha snarled tipping his head toward Koga.

"I'm leaving Kikyo needs her rest!"He explained before leaving.Sango narrowed her eyes at the hanyou before leaning down to take off her shoes.

"umm care to explain what you're doing?"Miroku asked enjoying the view of sango's backside. His right hand twitched inching forward to grope, but he pulled it back.

'This is not the right time for that' the monk sighed 'why does her body have to be so tempting and delightful?'

"I'm going to dive in to search deeper."her determined voice replied.It was a good thing Kagome gave her those swim lessons last year.

Oh God what is she doing?I wish she would stop swaying like that.I just can't resist any longer I need to feel this great beauty of-'

Without another thought the monk reached out and grabbed Sango's bottom firmly with both hands.

Sango froze turning red then swung around to slap the lecherous monk.

"YOU DAMN PERVERTED MONK!"she yelled angrily.

Meanwhile...

A certain furturistic miko was sleeping peacefully against the cave wall when she was rudely awaken by something smacking her in the face.

Her eyes popped open to see fresh clothes drop to her lap. Her eyes widened and she looked up to see Sesshomaru glaring down at her.

' You didn't have to throw them at me you big jerk I outta purify your ass! ' Kagome thought cutting her eyes at the demon before her.

"Thanks Oh mighty Great One Of the Western lands." She mumbled sarcastically.

"I advise you to use your words wisey miko unless you want to die.You shall return to my idiot half brother now"his icy voice replied before turning to walk away.

"Wait!" Kagome called out to him ,but he never once turned back.

I don't even know which way back to camp!' Kagome thought.

Once dressed she quickly ran outside the cave to stop Sesshomaru, but he was already gone.

"I can't believe he left me!" She huffed. ' With no direction, no weapons no sort of protection.' her eyebrows furrowed, ' Well I guess I shouldn't expect any less from Sesshomaru. Atleast he had enough decency to bring me clothes.I'm greatful for that.'She thought inspecting the silken fabric with her fingers.

The Skirt resembled her old one except it was knee length and red. The shirt was white outline with red lace; it stopped at the waist band of the skirt.

'I wonder where he got these they feel ... nice. I hope they weren't expensive.' The miko sighed before returning inside the cave to grab the small bottle of jewel shards. She used dirt to put out the flames of the fire then with a small glance back to the cave she left.

'Now which directing should I go?' she thought before randomly picking a path.

'Hope I chose the right direction.'

'Ha! After all these years in this era and you still don't know your way around.Your helpless girl!' her mind laughed whole heartedly.

'Hey its not my fault Inuyasha never lets me learn things on my own and always protects me from everything.'

'Unless Kikyo's around' her mind snorted.

Kagome stared at the ground with a hurt expression.

'Yet you still love him...'

: FlashBack :

It was the night of the new moon so everyone except Inuyasha were asleep.

Inuyasha only stayed awake in his human form and kept guard while enjoying the stars.

Kagome awoke from her sleep to see a black haired Inuyasha sitting at the top of the hill.

She quietly got out of her sleeping bag careful not to wake Shippo and the others then made her way over to the hanyou whom she loved.

"Mind if I join ya?"she asked in a perky voice startling Inuyasha. He tensed for a minute before shrugging.

"Keh! Suit yourself." he whispered.Kagome took a seat beside him and laid her head on his broad shoulder.

She smiled seeing his face turn a faint pink and giggled.

"Beautiful." she finally said taking the hanyou by the surprise.

"whaa?" He questioned leaning back.

"The stars silly."

"Oh yeah their ok." Inuyasha grinned.Kagome stared at him curiously, "WHat else did you think I was refering to?" she asked.

"N-Nothing."The hanyou hesitated.

"Inuyasha!"Kagome whinned.

"Drop it human."Inuyasha joked.

"Look whose talking."Kagome chuckled tugging his raven locks playfully.

: End of Flashback:

'Of course I do its not so easy to move on you know ... Hey why am I talking to myself anyway?' Kagome asked herself only to recieve complete silence.

'Oh now you want to be quiet.'She rolled her eyes when she heard snickering inside her head.

I wonder what inuyasha's doing? Knowing him he's probably throwing a fit about the jewel shards about now.I really hope Sango, Miroku,and Koga aren't worrying to much ,and Shippo's ok. I feel bad for leaving him behind at Kaede's hut if Rin wouldn't have found me ,and I died he would be heartbroken.

The miko balled her small hands into a fist as she stared ahead of her.

Damn that Naraku and his dirty tricks ; Kagura has yet to see the last of me! They think I'm weak well they have another thing coming! I will get stronger and they will die! But still I wonder -

"Listen to me Miko Because I won't tell you twice never insult This Sesshomaru like that again!"

"Kagome..."

Kagome's hand loosed from a fist ; a small blush rising as he repeated her name in her thoughts.

"Do not test this Sesshomaru. You will fail horribly."

"Damn arrogant Demon is even starting to invade my thoughts." She grumbled. "Just Who does he think he is ordering me around like that?"

The miko crossed her arms out of fustration and looked to the setting sun in the sky.

"Time sure flies by fast"Kagome admitted. She had been walking threw the forrest for hours straight without being attacked once.

' I better find a place for camp soon.' she thought continuing to walk.

She soon settled at a small spot beside a hot spring she'd accidentally found.(Not that she wasn't greatful)

After a long relaxing soak she dressed back into her cozy warm new fine silk fabrics then headed back to the clearing for bed.

She laid on the soft grass against the small log and sighed.

'Its times like these when you really wish you had your sleeping bag.' she shook her head then rested it on her arm.

The miko was almost asleep when she felt a a small pressure in her lower stomach.

'Great why have to pee now!' she groaned and lazily got off her bum and walked into the woods to relieve herself.

'God I wish I had my bag!' she sighed picking a leaf once she was finished. 'A leaf definately isn't toilet tissue!'

She did her thing and straightened her clothes making her way back to camp when a certain noise caught her attention. It sounded like leafs crackling against the forest floor behind the bushes.

Kagome curiosly took a step toward them. 'Oh please forgive me for being nosey ... don't let this be a vicious blood thirsty demon who wants to eat me or some pervert like Miroku'

AAAAAHHH!

A shrill scream ripped threw the air causing Kagome to jump back in fear.

"W-what was that?"she whispered. She felt as if she was in a horror movie and was the next victim. "Maybe I should turn back?"

OOh Please!

The same voice begged loudly causing Kagome to shiver all over. The woman sound like she was pain.

'Maybe she's hurt ... I can't leave her alone.' Kagome thought. She swallowed the lump in her throat gathering enough courage then walked over to the bush with a determined look on her face.

What she saw once she peered over the bush shocked her greatly.

'Oh Kami!' her eyes widened in shock.
