A/N: Well people, i've decided this is gonna be the last chapter.....lol, just kidding!
But i've really decided that this chapter is gonna be Shippo/Kagome!

Disclaimer: I don't own any of these characters, but Rumiko Takahashi left them to me in her will...

The Pairings That could Never Happen

"I'm soooo bored....." Shippo announced as they walked along the dirt path. "Where are we anyways?"
Kagome was pretty bored herself. "I dunno, but I haven't sensed a jewel shard in days....."
Inuyasha didn't seem to be listening, he was deep in thought.
Sango nodded in agreement while keeping a close watch on Miroku, next to her.
"Maybe we should rest?" Kagome suggested, taking Kirara off her shoulder to pet her. "It is getting kinda late..."
"We don't have time for that!" Inuyasha rejected the idea.
"Oh c'mon Inuyasha, I don't sense a jewel shard anywhere, so most likely there are no demons around."
"A good oppurtunity for us to rest." Sango noted.
"Fine", Inuyasha gave in.

After a few minutes of searching they found a good place to rest, a small clearing surrounded by trees and flowers.
Sango got dinner started and Shippo and Kagome went out to get wood in the forest.

"I wonder when we'll reach the next town?" Shippo inquired. "It's getting old seeing the same old stuff everyday...."
"Yeah." Kagome agreed. "Really old."
Shippo gritted his teeth as he tryed to pick up a stick bigger than himself.
He had it for a moment, but then stumbled over a rock and fell.
Kagome gasped as she gave Shippo her hand to help him up.
He grasped it. They stood gazing into each other's eyes for a few moments....
They both blushed and turned away from each other.
"C'mon, let's go back to camp." Kagome commanded with a handful of sticks.
"Okay, let's go."

Shippo shouted in joy as they reached camp "We have more firewood!"
"Thankyou." Sango thanked them both and took the wood from both their hands. "This should be enough for now."

They ate in silence, as there really was nothing to talk about.
After the plates were taken up everyone pretty much went to bed.

Sango and Kagome stayed up talking for a while.
"So has anything interesting been happening in your world, lately?" Sango asked.
"No, not really, my world is way more boring than this one."
"Oh." Sango replied, turning her gaze to a sleeping Miroku.
"Um Sango.....can i ask you a question?"
"Sure."
"Do you like Miroku, I mean as more than a friend?"
Sango turned two shades of red."I dunno, it's hard to tell if you love someone sometimes. What about you?"
"Yeah, I think i do."
Sango assumed she was talking about Inuyasha, little did she know that wasn't the case at all.

"C'mon, let's get movin'!" Inuyasha urged everyone along.
"Inuyasha, relax!" Kagome argued. "Did you have a nice sleep Shippo?"
"Yeah, Kagome, thanks."
Shippo beamed at Kagome, when he first met her, he liked her as just a friend, now...he wasn't sure.
Sango petted the purring Kirara and said."I'm ready to go."
Miroku shook off his sleepiness and agreed."Let's go."


'On the road again' Kagome thought to herself. 'Why is Inuyasha so eager to get moving?!'
Kagome's train of thought was suddenly broken as she sensed a jewel shard nearby, very nearby.
"Inuyasha, I sense a jewel shard!"
"Where?"
"Aaaaaaahhhhh!!!" Kagome shrieked in horror as a giant lizard demon rushed out at them.
Inuyasha took out the tetsussaiga. "Take this."
Sango threw her boomerang at the beast, too.
"It's no use!" Sango realized as she stopped fighting.
Inuyasha wouldn't give up though, he kept swinging his sword at the demonic reptile.
Then, Miroku rushed onto the seen."Wind tunnel!"
The lizard was being sucked in sure enough, little did they know, Shippo had tryed to help to and he was on the lizard's back.
"Shippo!" Kagome shouted in fear.
Miroku covered his wind tunnel just in time, the lizard then fell to the ground.
Kagome rushed over to pick Shippo off the lizard.
Inuyasha then slaughtered the Lizard without mercy."Kagome...."
Kagome wasn't paying attention.
"Kagome?" Shippo asked.
Kagome replied with a big kiss on the lips. "I love you little kitsune, I'm yours forever...."

A/N: I didn't go much into detail with the love stuff, but it was a little bit more serious then my last chapters.
I think the next pairing will have something to do with Naraku.......
