A/N: I don't Inu-Yasha, but why must you make me suffer by admitting it? Why?! Do you enjoy my pain?! *cries and runs away* ;.; I'm pathetic... ^-^
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Mmmmm..." Sango whimpered in pain. She was chained to the wall of the cave, in a dark, dank area where nobody could find her. Her body tremored with a combination of cold, fear, and weakness. The manacles around her wrists and ankles were tight and rusted. They were covered in blood. Her blood. She had struggled so much, but to no avail. The chains seemed to be sucking up her blood! But why? 'W-won't somebody please save me?' she thought shakily. She looked to her shoulders and noticed that, still draped around her, was Miroku's robe. 'Miroku...' She fell weak once more.
************************************************************************
Miroku's mouth hung wide open, tongue hanging out lustfully. The temptress smiled at him as she led him to his impending doom. The youkai made it so thatthe luxury of a palace replaced the looks of the dark cave. When they finally reached their destination, she "collapsed" into his arms.
"Oh...houshi-sama...I've been searching far and wide for someone WORTHY enough to have me bear their child. You are that man..." She looked up to him with seductive eyes.
"I...I....uhhhh." For someone who talked about it alot, Miroku certainly wasn't expecting this. He looked around. 'Wow. This is PERFECT!' The succubus led him to a gold encrusted chair and allowed him to sink down into it. She climbed onto his lap and brandished some grapes from behind her back and waved them in front of his face. 'I've got everything I want,' he thought to himself. 'Then why aren't I happier?'
The demon frowned inwardly. He wasn't allowing his soul to be completely open. SOMETHING was stopping him to be totally vulnerable. His mind was on something else. 'Ahhh yess....This GIRL!' She instantly changed in the form of...Sango. [surprise surprise, right? ^.^;;]
"S-Sango? Where'd you..." The would-be Sango placed her finger over the monk's lips. She looked into his eyes and said blatantly, "I want to bear your child."
"Eh?! Say again?" Miroku was utterly stunned. This couldn't be the Sango he knew .It couldn't be the Sango he...loved. [ Oooo...waffy!] To test this, he snuck his hand over to "Sango's" rear and groped away. The much anticipated whack courtesy of the Hiraikotsu didn't arrive. He now knew what was going on. His other hand snuck to his staff. "Think again, DEMON!" With that, he shoved the youkai off of him with a thrust of his weapon.
As soon as she fell to the ground, the whole palace illusion vanished, as did the image of Sango. She reverted to the ugly creature she really was. Miroku was fuming. He held his air-rip threateningly. "Where is she!? If you don't tell me, I'll suck you up in my hell hole, without so much as a second thought!" The demon looked terrified.
************************************************************************
"I can see it! There's the cave! It's a short distance ahead!" Kagome said from her spot upon the hanyou's back. Her hand was outstretched and her finger was pointing to their destination, although this really did aid Inu-Yasha anyhow. The half-demon sped up as they neared the cave. Suddenly, he collapsed to the ground, as did Shippou and Kirara.
Kagome stood there among the grounded youkai.
"Ahem! Can somebody PLEASE explain this to me?" the 15-year-old said, hands on her hips.
Inu-Yasha, being the strongest out of the three, slowly pulled himself up and stood beside her, swaying a bit from weakness. "The...evil aura of this place is so strong...and it's growing stronger...Ugh..." He finished, and finally fell to the ground in pain.
"InuYasha!" Kagome knelt by him. "W-what should I do?" Inu-Yasha looked up at her. "Don't...go in there, Kagome. It's...too dangerous and...I can't protect you!"
'Um....' Kagome thought to herself. 'What does he mean by that...WAIT! I can't be thinking of this right now! I've got to help everyone!' With that final thought, she disregarded Inu-Yasha's bit of advice and headed to the cave, bow in hand.
The hanyou lifted his head as she ran. "Stupid girl....Good luck," he practically whispered.
************************************************************************
"Where is she!? If you don't tell me, I'll suck you up in my hell hole, without so much as a second thought!" Sango lifted her head. She could faintly hear a voice, a comforting voice. "Mi-Miroku?!" she said, barely above a whisper. 'It is...It's him!' she thought. With all the strength she could muster, she started making a racket, banging her chains against the wall and screaming, "I'm in here, houshi-sama! Help me! I'M HERE!!!"
'Sango...' he thought. He started franticly feeling the walls for an opening or SOMETHING that would lead him to her. "KEEP TALKING, SANGO!!! Your voice will lead me!" He followed the sounds and finally can to an oddly shaped rock, which turned out to be a door. He burst through it, while the youkai still lay stunned on the floor.
The exterminator stopped and practically collapsed in a mixture of exhaustion, blood loss, and relief. "Mi...ro...ku," Sango said tiredly, a weak smile on her face. She whimpered in pain.
"Sango! Oh...Sango..." He walked hastily over to the girl who hung upon the wall. He placed some spell scrolls on the cursed, blood-sucking manacles, causing them to open up, in turn allowing Sango to fall into his arms. She laid somewhat limply there, but she was still conscious and aware. He held her there for a moment and stroked her hair comfortingly.
"Ahhh...Isn't thissss sssweet?" a voice hissed from behind them. Miroku set Sango down gently, out of the way of danger. It was the former seductress. She was now a horrid serpent-like creature with glowing red eyes. She slithered over to the manacles and swallowed them. SWALLOWED them. "Ahhhh...the blood of humansss makesssss me much ssstronger!" She spat, as the muscles on her scaly body rippled. Her long fangs dripped with thick venom as she stared hungrily at the youkai exterminator. "Essspecially the blood of a maiden...A ssstrong one, at that!"
"ARGH! You leave her alone!" With that, he swiped his staff at the serpent's face, causing her to fly back.
"Hmm...He sssaid you'd be much easssier to defeat. You're a fiessssty one. But with thisss ssshard, you'll be finisssshed!!" She whipped her tail at the monk, and he flew against the wall, cornered. The snake wrapped him up in a death grip. She bared her fangs, ready to strike.
"R...run, Sango!" he managed to mutter. Sango clambered up, still weakened by blood loss. "I can't leave you here, Miroku! Damn you...Naraku!" She had figured out that a certain babboon-suited villain could be the only one behind this. She looked around for her boomerang bone. It was nowhere to be found. They were doomed, but at least they'd die together. She decided it was time to let him know. "Miroku, I..-"
"I don't THINK so, demon," Kagome shouted, as she released an arrow upon the youkai.
