A/N: Once again as a reminder i just wanna say this chapter has nothing to do with the last one.
This one is going to be a bit more serious than the last, i think.




The pairings that could never happen

Kagome sighed as she watched Kouga leave camp to go to into the forest.
He had been acting strange lately...
Kagome's eyes fell down groggily as she went back to sleep.

"Aren't you gonna eat breakfast, Kagome?" Shippo asked, worried. "Is something wrong?"
"No......" Kagome answered "Where's Kouga?"
"He's been gone ever since this morning." Sango answered, taking a step away from Miroku to get out of groping range.
"I say good ridence!" Inuyasha steeped in. "Who needs him?!"
"Fine, I guess I'll go look for him then." Kagome decided. "This forest isn't safe to go through alone."
"I'll go too" Sango agreed.
"Me t-" Miroku started, but was cut off by a death stare from Sango.
It suprised Kagome that there was no reaction from Inuyasha on her decision.

Once out in the forest the girls began to speak to one another.
"I wonder where he could be..." Kagome wondered. "He wouldn't go back home without telling us first...."
"Who knows." Sango answered. "Maybe he just got sick of arguing with Inuyasha and left."
"I guess so...."
_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

After 10 hours of searching the girls finally returned home because it was getting late.

"I guess he went home after all..." Kagome admitted, staring at the campfire.
"I'm sure he's okay." Sango comforted.
"Well, I'm going to bed." Miroku suddenly announced. " Sango, care to join me?"
Sango slapped him over the head as she shouted "Hentai!!!!"


Kagome and Inuyasha sat at the campfire long after everyone had left and gone to bed.
They stared at the crackling flames in silence.
Inuyasha was finally the first to speak.
"Kagome.There's something I need to tell you." Inuyasha spoke nervously.
"Yes?"
"Kagome....I had an affair."
"What?!!!"
"With Kouga."
"Oh Inuyasha.......I'm so happy for you!" Kagome shouted to Inuyasha's and all you people who are reading this suprise. "Let's go tell everyone else the good news!"


So Inuyasha and Kagome entered the part of the forest where Miroku was susposed to be sleeping.
They froze in horror as they stared at Miroku's futon.
Under the covers were TWO bodies.
One was Miroku's, but they couldn't tell who the other's belonged to because it was face down.
Whoever it was had long black hair.
"S-Sango?" Kagome guessed.
"No." Inuyasha answered turning the body over."Kouga!"
Kouga stirred as Inuyasha yelled his name in fury.
"I-Inuyasha I can explain!" Kouga realized what was happening as he shook off his sleepiness.
"Tell it to someone who cares!" Inuyasha ignored him. "We're through."
Kouga didn't reply, he just rose to his feet and fled to the forest, never to return.....



A sad yeat meaningful moral to the story people:

DON'T CHEAT ON YOUR GIRLFRIEND,BOYFRIEND, HUSBAND, WIFE, GIGOLO, OR ANYONE ELSE WHO "MEANS" SOMETHING TO YOU!!!!
