A/N: Okay, okay....Once again, I must admit that I DON'T own Inu-Yasha...Why do you make me suffer? Why are you laughing at my pain?! *sniff* If only I could find a plushy of him...then I'd sorta own him...*grins evilly*
Oh, and by the way, to signify thought, I'll now use these: ' '
since the italics don't work.

Sango looked to the monk. "Houshi...what do you mean? What kind of bad weather?" The youkai exterminator bit her bottom lip in apprehension. Miroku got up and inched closer to her.
"Oh Sango," he embraced her and dipped her, her nose within a centimeter of his own, "If you're scared, you can always lean on me..." He raised his eyebrows in implication.
Sango blushed for a minute, sweatdropped, and finally shook herself of the monk's grip. She back-handed him and said harshly, "No thanks for the offer, I can hold my own pretty well!" She dusted her hands off at the matter and headed deeper into the forest with Shippou.
"Hey!!! Wait up!!!" Miroku hopped up and ran after the two. 'I was only being concerned! Why does everybody always think I'm only out the get myself a little...Oh yeah, that's right...heh!' the monk thought to himself as he caught up to the group, who, once more, set off on their quest for civilization.

Inu-Yasha and Kagome found themselves bored beyond belief. Kagome began to fray the edges of the blanket they were sitting on, and Inu-Yasha found something fascinating in his toes. Suddenly, a large clap of thunder roared, and the sky flashed with anger. Kagome squealed, frightened, and jumped to Inu-Yasha for protection. She clutched his kimono tightly and buried her head in his chest.
Inu-Yasha blushed. "Kagome..." he said softly, but then snapped back to his normal state, "GAH! It's only thunder, wench! Ain't nothin' to worry about. Phhh...you humans..."
Kagome looked up, slightly hurt, but she then realized that he wasn't making any effort to remove her. She still felt she had to defend her race. "Well, I'm SORRY if I get scared a little bit more easily than you do! I'm not made of stone, ya know! I mean---EEP!" Another roar of thunder caused her to jump closer to Inu-Yasha, who put an arm protectively around her.
"Um...I can protect you...if you want me to, that is..." Inu-Yasha tried not to make
eye-contact with her, for fear of a blow to his pride.
Kagome looked up at him and smiled. "Thank you, Inu-Yasha, I would like that." She rested her head against his chest, for easier access to her place of refuge, should anymore thunder hit. Inu-Yasha tried to remain as if he didn't care. "Feh..." With that, the thunder roared once again, Kagome buried her head, and Inu-Yasha comfortingly stroked her hair.

"I think I see some roofs over that hill!" Shippou was standing tip-toed on Sango's shoulder. He had his hands shading his eyes, salute-style, and nearly fell off of his stake-out point.
"Are you sure Shippou?" Miroku was slightly saddened that their journey was coming to an end, but perked up as soon as he realized they'd have the whole journey back, and would most likely have to camp out somewhere. ' Just me and Sango...Sleeping under the sta--' The houshi's thoughts were interrupted by a drop of rain hitting his head.
"Uh-oh..." Sango cupped her hand and caught a rain drop. "Looks like we're in for a little rain, boys." Kirara whimpered and tried to hide behind Sango's hair. Being a fire cat in the rain wasn't the best thing. Luckily, she was in her tiny form.
"I think we'll have to find a cave or somethin--" The youkai exterminator stopped midsentence when she noticed that Miroku had chivalrously taken off his purple outer robe(type-like-thing) and was holding it over her head to shield her from the rain. He smiled at her and said, "Wouldn't want you catching a cold." He wrapped it around her and patted her shoulder reassuringly. She blushed, mildly flattered, and said, "Mhmm...Uhh...We'd better get to that cave!" She quickened her pace and reached a nearby cave, making sure her face could not be seen, lest her feelings be revealed.
Miroku frowned and noticed the wet kitsune youkai had fallen from his perch and was now in a puddle on the ground. "H-Hey!! That wasn't very nice! NYEHH!" Shippou stuck his tongue out at Sango's back. The monk scooped the disgruntled fox kit up, but not before cuffing him lightly for his actions.
In the cave, Sango sat down on a large, dry rock and sighed. 'ARGH! Why does that stupid hentai to go and turn all gushy on me! GAH!!! I'm blushing!' she thought to herself, reddening.
"Ahhh....what a treat for me....a lovely young morsel you are!" A dark, menacing voice spoke up behind her. Sango gasped and turned around. She let out a long horrified scream and was pulled suddenly into the depth of the cave by a horrid creature.
Miroku's ears caught the shriek. "Sango! She's in trouble! Let's go!" He grabbed onto Shippou and Kirara, who had also been left behind, and darted toward the cave. "SANGO! I'M COMING!"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Elsewhere, Inu-Yasha's ears perked up from under the blanket he and Kagome had hidden under. "Did ya hear that?" He looked to Kagome worriedly.
Kagome shook her head and clung to his kimono as the thunder clapped once more. "I...hope the others are okay..." She had genuine concern in her voice.
Inu-Yasha pet her hair once more. "Me too..." He looked out into the distance, and couldn't help but feel like something had gone terribly awry...

Okey Smokey! Tell me whatcha think!!!! R&R! Por favor? If you like it, I'll consider making it more than 3 chapters, but otherwise I'll stop it at the next one. This one is much longer than the other, and I put much more feeling into this one. I REALLY hope you like it!!!!! ^.^;;;
