Lost Miroku: The Message
Sango just stood there, staring at the houshi's ghost. His image was wavering in the wind.
"Houshi..." was heard by the trees and was carried on the wind.
"Sango...don't be frightened. I am sure that you know about the stories of how if a person met a violent death, his soul will be troubled and will hover around his grave. That is what I am, and I have a message for you."
His voice was soothing, yet cold and hoarse to Sango. Shocked, Sango made no reply, but Miroku saw that she heard him by the small, meek nod she gave him. He continued:
"Sango, I know that I have passed on, but you must be strong, and though I have passed on, there IS a way to resurrect me."
In his eyes, it didn't seem she was paying attention anymore because she was walking for with her right hand outstretched trying to touch him. Upon reaching him, she meekly tried to place her hand on his chest, but it went through. Gasping at the sensation of a cold that went down to her bones, she pulled back. Miroku sweat-dropped and decided to continue on.
"A journey must be made if you are willing Sango."
Upon hearing her name, Sango was shocked out of her shock and asked timidly: "A journey?"
"Yes, a journey full of action and danger—" he was cut-off because he started to fade in and out, like a flickering light bulb.
"Miroku? What's going on?" asked Sango who was in a great state of consternation.
"I sincerely apologize Sango, but my time is up...I am only allowed to tell you right now, where you must go first in order to see me living and breathing again."
"Time is up...?" echoed an uncertain Sango.
"Yes, I must leave, but here is the place you must go: A place that is cold, wet, and blinding at times. It is also near here. Good bye...and Good luck," were his last words as he finally disappeared in a swirling mist that levitated up to the heavens and disappeared.
Sango just stood there, and when it finally hit her that Miroku was gone, she was on the verge of tears, but remembered his words: "You must be strong."
^·._[ Back at Camp with the Gang ]_.·^
Inuyasha, who was sitting on a tree branch directly over Kagome's sleeping bag, was watching her contently sleep and listening to her soothing snoring. Not noticing Sango walking back into the clearing, he jumped down from the branch next to Kagome to stroke her hair.
He was about to touch her ebony black hair with his clawed fingers, when he heard Sango shuffle through the grass and lie quietly on the ground. Though Sango did not seem to notice Inuyasha's actions, he still got the boogers scared out of him.
Jumping back into his tree, he muttered a curse under his breath, decided he was getting soft and fell asleep.
Shippou, who had been awake the whole time, had seen all of Inuyasha's actions from the safety of Kagome's sleeping bag. Smiling to himself, he decided that this was great blackmail material, and contently fell asleep.
As Sango was lying on the forest floor trying to get some sleep, her thoughts kept on drifting to where Miroku said she must go. It was a riddle actually, one which completely confused her. Pushing this aside and thinking about all the 'good-times' she had with Miroku, she quickly fell asleep.

Inuyasha woke up when a beam of sunlight shined on his face irritating him.
"Damn sun..." muttered Inuyasha while shading his eyes from the light with the sleeve of his haori. (A/N: I think the red/pink(manga) thing he wears is called a haori)
As Inuyasha fell asleep again, Kagome woke up. About to be all "Ms. Sunshine" as a morning person, she started to get up, shake Shippou with great vigor, when she remembered that Miroku was dead. Recalling this, she stopped shaking Shippou and held him by his foot/paw while she went over what happened in her head.
"Kagome..." Shippou whined while hanging upside down, "can you put me down?"
Realizing that all of Shippou's blood was going to his brain and that he was currently in danger of his head exploding, he acknowledged his whining and set him down.
Sango woke up next, hearing Shippou whining. All the events of what happened during the night invaded her brain like a flood being held back by a twig. She decided that the journey would start today.
"Kagome, Shippou and Inuyasha! There is something important I must tell you!" she shouted over Shippou asking what was for breakfast, Kagome's breathing, and Inuyasha's loud snoring.
Inuyasha woke up with a fright at the sound of Sango shouting thinking that a demon was murdering Kagome.
"WHERE'S THE DEMON?!?"
Kagome was snapped out of her thoughts and asked civily:
"Nani?" (A/N: incase you dont know, Nani is romanji for What?")
Shippou stopped drooling at the thoughts of Kagome's cooking and asked:
"What is it?"
Sango just sweat-dropped and continued on.
"This may be hard to believe, but last night I went for a walk..." Inuyasha remembered how Sango invaded on his 'bonding time' and just 'Humph'ed', "And I got to the place where Miroku died. And...I saw his ghost."
Her answers were three "NANI?!?!?"'s. Ignoring them, she filled them in on what Miroku told them.
"We gotta be strong, no more brooding over his death. The most important thing right now is figuring out what his riddle means and finding him."
"Hmm..." Inuyasha pondered, " 'A place that is cold, wet and blinding at times and near' is very specific. I think he is talking about a lake."
"But Inuyasha," Shippou said in his annoying voice, "There are no lakes around here!"
"Shut up."
"Kagome..." Shippou whined yet again, "Inuyasha is being mean!"
"Inuyasha..." Kagome practically growled, and Inuyasha braced himself for the expected 'SIT!', but it never came. "Stop bothering Shippou."
Inuyasha let out the breath he didn't know he was holding. Sighing in relief, he decided not to tell Shippou to shut up for now.
"Ano...I think he was talking about a mountain. Since mountain peaks have snow, so it's wet and cold. And also, sometimes when the sun hits the snow at the correct angle, it becomes all bright and blinds you."
"Sounds right to me," Kagome replied.
"Feh...whatever," Inuyasha grumpily said.
"Yes!" Shippou shouted with a paroxysm of happiness.
"According to my knowledge, the closest mountain here is...Mt. Fuji..."

A/N: woot. another chapter done. and sorry for the...name of the mountain. I didn't feel like studying all the mountains in Japan to see a mountain that is in the Musashi Domain or whatever
