Midnight Feathers

Chapter Three: Monkey Trouble

Running down the street, Sango began to call Miroku to figure out what was going on.

Please let everything be alright. Sango thought as she got Miroku's voice mail.

"He's not picking up," Sango said worriedly to Inuyasha.

A growl escaped Inuyasha's throat. He wasn't out but for twenty five minutes and something happens while he's gone.

Damn it! I should have stayed at the shrine. Inuyasha thought angrily.

Inuyasha stopped running right in front of Sango,

"Get on my back, we'll get there faster if I carry you." Inuyasha told Sango. She nodded and climbed onto his back. As Inuyasha felt Sango on his back, he jumped high into the sky. He landed on top of the high building gently.

"Keep trying to call Miroku back," Inuyasha told Sango as he began to run across the building's roof, jumping from roof top to roof top.

Sango dialed Miroku's number back as the text message came back to her mind.

"Why not ask your parents for money?" Inuyasha questioned.

"I'm nineteen, I'm an adult now. I can take care of myself." Kagome said.

Sango just smiled to herself as she listened to the two of them, she was happy to see Inuyasha try to make friends with other people outside the shrine.

Before Sango could join in the conversation, she cell began to vibrate. Pulling out her cell from her pocket she saw it was a message from Miroku.

From: Miroku

Hurry back to shrine, unwanted guests.

Sango's heart dropped as she looked at her phone's screen.

Not wanting to worry Kagome, Sango tried to act normal as she could.

"Well it looks like we're need at the shrine, it's been good to see again Kagome." Sango said standing up to give Kagome a hug.

Sango's thought were interrupted by Miroku's voice.

"Sango, where are you and Inuyasha?" Miroku's sounded rushed.

"We're very close to the shrine, whats going on?" Sango asked worriedly.

"Don't come though the front of the shrine!" Miroku demanded.

Stopping on top of a oak tree Inuyasha looked down at Sango with an annoyed look.

"And why the hell not," he asked angrily

Hearing Inuyasha, Miroku continue to talk,

"Because there's a demon monkey gang that managed to get to the shrine grounds, they kept demanding us to give them the maiden that is the reincarnation of Lady Midoriko." Miroku informed the two.

Sango looked up at Inuyasha with a questionable look.

"But we don't have the reincarnation," Sango said.

Inuyasha looked down at Sango with the same questionable look. Than it came to him.

As Sango looked at Inuyasha, she saw his eyes began to soften.

"Inuyas-"

"Kikyo…" Inuyasha said quietly.

"What?" Sango asked wondering why Inuyasha just called her Kikyo.

"It's Kikyo," Inuyasha said again to Sango. She finally got what Inuyasha was trying to tell her,

"Miroku they still think that Kikyo is the reincarnation of Lady Midoriko," Sango informed Miroku.

"Ahh-" Miroku grunted into the phone, "Just get here as fast as you can, I can't hold them all off forever. Take the back away on the left side of the shrine, that's the safest way as I know of. We're all in the main shrine," Miroku said before quickly hanging up.

Before Sango could say a thing, Inuyasha was off. Jumping from tree to tree out of site, Inuyasha saw the 'safe zone' Miroku was talking about and went to that direction. Jumping out of the trees and over the wall that was around the shrine's grounds, he landed quietly on the other side. Inuyasha jogged behind a main shrine house and place Sango down on her feet. Sango looked up at Inuyasha as he sniffed the air.

"There's bout four or five of them, Miroku's injured. I can smell his blood," Inuyasha informed Sango.

A small gasp came from Sango as she began to worry more for Miroku's safety.

"Is it bad?" she asked quietly.

Inuyasha shook his head as he spotted one of the monkey demons. Quickly, Inuyasha put his hand over Sango's mouth and moved her along with him into the shadows of the trees as his amber eyes followed the demon walk to the other side of the shrine. Looking up, Sango saw that one of the main shrine house windows were cracked open a little bit. If she could climb into the window she could get Inuyasha and her weapon from their rooms. Tapping a finger on the hand that was over her mouth, Sango watched as Inuyasha's eyes snap down at hers. Looking back at the cracked window, Sango pointed up to the window knowing that Inuyasha would know what she was saying without telling him. The window was on the fifth floor, but Sango knew Inuyasha could jump up there easily.

Looking around to make sure it was safe, Inuyasha held onto Sango's waist as he jumped to the fifth floor window and grabbed hold of the window's railing. Lifting Sango up so she could reach the window, she quietly open the cracked window open wide enough to slide her body though. As Sango managed to get her whole body though, a booming voice was heard coming from the main shrine.

"Monk! Come out here and face me! You shall give us the reincarnation or you shall died and me my dinner," the demonic voice said with a chuckle at the end.

Sango looked at Inuyasha quickly after hearing the voice. Briefly looking at Sango, Inuyasha dropped down to the ground and began to walk in front of the main shrine house. Looking around, he didn't see any monkey demons, when he reach the front of the shrine house, he saw three monkey demons in front of the main shrine banging on a barrier that Miroku must have put up.

"Damn you monk! If you do not come out of this barrier we'll-"

"You'll what? Scratch your asses like idiots!" Inuyasha said as he walked closer to the demons.

As the demons heard this, they turn their attention to Inuyasha.

"Who the hell are you?" one of the littler monkeys asked in an annoyed tone.

"You're fucking worst nightmare," Inuyasha growled out as he flashed his teeth.

The biggest monkey's face went black for a minute as Inuyasha continue to walk forward, than a smirk found its way on the demon's face.

"Then I best think my worst nightmare better watch his back!" it said loudly to Inuyasha.

Before Inuyasha could figure out what the monkey's words meant, sharp claws went thought Inuyasha's back.

"Gahh-"Inuyasha grunted as he fell to the ground. Looking out the side of his eye he saw that the last two monkey demons appeared behind him.

As Inuyasha tried to pull himself up one of the monkey's foot fell powerfully on Inuyasha's back making him fall back down with another grunt.

"Haha! Is this what my worst nightmare looks like?" the biggest monkey said as it walked over to Inuyasha with the littler monkeys next to it.

"G-go to hell," Inuyasha mustered out with the foot still pressing into his back.

"Inuyasha!" Miroku yelled as he flew out the main shrine along with Kirara, Sango's trusty two tailed cat demon. The small cat ran a few steps in front of Miroku as its body was engulfed in flames, but the flames were soon gone as the little kitten was now a giant ride able two tail cat.

"M-miroku! What are you doing?" Inuyasha yelled.

"Monk, so you finally showed yourself. Now give us the reincarnation and we might let you live." The monkey said with a smirk.

Miroku narrowed his eyes at the group that surrounded his dear friend,

"First give me my friend." Miroku demanded pointing to Inuyasha with his good arm, his other arm was still slightly bleeding from where the monkeys cut his arm with their sharp claws.

The bigger monkey looked at the monkey with its foot on Inuyasha's back and nodded. The monkey kicked Inuyasha hard over to Miroku and Kirara. Miroku roughly caught Inuyasha,

"K-keh! Just you fucking wait," Inuyasha said as he began to stand up.

"Inuyasha! Miroku!" Sango yelled and she threw her Hiraikotsu in the air,

Sango jumped out the window as Kirara caught her, landing Sango roughly on Kirara's back. The monkey demons jump out the way just in time as the Hiraikotsu barely missed them. Swiftly catching Hiraikotsu, Sango and Kirara quickly flew back down to Miroku and Inuyasha.

"Where they go?" Sango asked as she dismounted off of Kirara.

"I don't know but I'll sniff them out," Inuyasha said determine to find the assholes.

Miroku push Inuyasha against the main shrine doors getting blood on the door as he put his hands together began to chant words to himself,

"If we can't hear or see them," he said "they won't see or hear us."

As he said that, a barrier formed around them. They stood there quietly listening for the monkeys to show themselves.

Inuyasha began to hear footsteps coming for the shrine steps, than a scent he could have drown in flew into his nose. His eyes closed trying to remember the owner of the scent, than his eyes flew open.

Kagome!

As her name came into his mind, his eyes locked on to her as she appeared at the stairs.

"Kagome," he said.

Looking in the direction Inuyasha was looking, Sango and Miroku saw that it was Kagome that appeared before them still her Coffee Café uniform.

"Kagome!" Sango said as she began to dash out of the barrier, but before she could be out of the barrier, Miroku grabbed whole of her wrist and pulled her back.

"It might be a trap," Miroku said.

They watched as Kagome looked around the shrine grounds. Then she look straight at them, but she could truly see them because of the barrier. She stood there for a few minutes,

What the hell are you doing? Get out of here, Kagome! Can't you see this is a battle in front of you? Run!

As if Kagome hear Inuyasha's thoughts, she began to run towards the forest. And right behind her, the biggest monkey came out of hiding and followed Kagome.

"No!" Inuyasha yelled as he jumped out of the barrier and straight towards the direction Kagome left in, but he didn't get far as the four other monkeys stopped him from going any farther.

"hehe, where do you think you're going half demon?" the monkey said as it licked his claws.

Inuyasha growled darkly, he didn't have time for this.

"Kirara, go after Kagome!" Sango said as she and Miroku landed beside Inuyasha, ready to take care of these pests. Inuyasha watched Kirara fly over their head and into the forest.

"Inuyasha, here." Sango said as she tossed over Inuyasha sword.

"Keh, finally." Inuyasha said as he caught his sword with one hand, and in a blink of an eye the sword turned into a giant fang. Swinging the sword in front of him, the wind blew harshly in front of the four monkey demons.

"Who wants to fucking die first?" Inuyasha asked darkly. His eyes showing no mercy.

Before Inuyasha even blinked the four monkeys ran way with their tails between their legs.

"Hey! Get fucking back here!" Inuyasha yelled as he was about to go after them until Miroku took hold of his shoulder and pointed into the forest, atop of the trees there was a faint blue light. But as fast as it came, it left. Before questions came out of their mouths, Inuyasha was off in the direction of the blue light.

As Inuyasha came closer to Kagome's scent, he began to hear moaning. As Inuyasha came to a clear, he saw Kagome laying on the ground out cold and Kirara stood over her body protecting her. Not too far from Kagome's body the monkey demon stood holding its hand as it was burned very badly.

"Keh, your worst nightmare came to play. "Wind Scar!" Inuyasha yelled as he crashed his sword into the ground. The ground began to break apart in four lines, and yellow light came out of the cracks destroying the monkey demon where he stood.

"Keh," Inuyasha said as he looked over to where the monkey demon once stood.

Kirara relax as Inuyasha destroyed the demon. Kirara moved off Kagome's body as Inuyasha walked over to them. Getting on his knees, Inuyasha pick Kagome up in his arms and brought her up to his chest. He little sniffed her searching for injures. Inuyasha sighed as she only had a few bruises forming. As Inuyasha stood with Kagome bridal style in his arms, Sango and Miroku showed up running over to him.

Sango dropped her Hiraikotsu as she ran over to Inuyasha.

"Is she okay?" Sango said as she gently touched Kagome face, feeling the warmth from Kagome cheeks she knew she could dismiss death.

Inuyasha nodded, "Yea. She's fine, she just has some bruises." He said as he looked down at Kagome peaceful sleeping face.

"What are we going to tell her? Should we tell her the truth?" Miroku asked as he walked over to the group.

"No, let's not tell her the truth. We'll make something up to tell her. But first let's clean the shrine grounds and ourselves up before Kagome wakes back up.

Miroku and Sango both nodded as they all walked back to the shrine.
