Yes still do not own Inuyasha or any of the other characters seen in the
show, but I am proud to own the idea ^_^
Chapter 4: No one to be seen
Once Miroku had caught sight of the den, he started off at a sprint. "Hey Miroku wait up," Inuyasha yelled after him. Kirara who was on Sango's shoulder jumped down and transformed, Sango, Kagome, and Shippou got on and went after Miroku and Inuyasha who were running with a great speed down to the den. Miroku came up to the waterfall and went behind it. He was surprised to see it deserted. There was no one in sight. He fell to his knees and hit the ground. Inuyasha walked in, saw Miroku on the floor, then looked around, he knew why. He didn't know what to say to him, he glanced at his tail and it seemed to be puffy and was going back and forth quit fast, he was obviously very upset. But what was he going to say? Kagome, Shippou, and Sango came in and saw the den to be empty. They looked down at the ground for a second then looked at Miroku. He now seemed to be sniffing the ground. "Miroku, I'm sor." Kagome was cut short by Miroku saying, "They didn't leave too long ago." "Um Miroku we're going to foll.."
"Come on, they went this way," he said as he lifted his nose form the ground and started to run back out. Kagome and Inuyasha exchanged confused looks and ran after him. They ran outside and saw Miroku back on the ground. He got up and started to run for a narrow mountain pass. Kagome, Shippou, and Sango hopped onto Kirara and Inuyasha ran after Miroku. After awhile of running, Inuyasha yelled out to Miroku, "They're gone, maybe we should just go back to their den and wait, they should come back eventually"
"NO, I do NOT want to stay like this forever, what if they NEVER come back"
"I'm sorry I asked," Inuyasha said as Miroku ahead of him sped up. "I'm not going to be able to keep this pace up forever, and neither is he," thought Inuyasha. A good amount of minutes went by, then Miroku gave out a yelp and sped up. Inuyasha looked out, he could see, in the distance, a group that was camped out on the now widened mountain pass. As the sun set Miroku came up to the group, it was them. He stood there for a second on the border of the group and looked around, he couldn't see Kouga. A wolf gave out a howl, he had spotted Miroku. Two guards came running up to him with 4 wolves, "Who's there?" one of them said. "Just a traveling monk, I need to speak to your leader, Kouga"
"What business do you have with him?" One of the wolves came up to Miroku, growling until he caught his scent. He stopped and sat down signaling to Miroku to scratch him. The two guards looked puzzled. They caught the scent of him and stopped. "Who did you say you were again? Are you from one of the northern packs?"
"No, but could I speak with Kouga it's pretty urgent." They ignored him and kept asking questions of where he was from, they had never seen him before, but he had the scent of a wolf demon. After a couple of questions directed to where he was from, Miroku got ticked. "Listen I need to talk to Kouga, is he here or not?"
"No he isn't," one of the guards signed for him to come to the campfire that had been built. Miroku followed, he needed to find him. He sat down. The guards got a good look at him. He seemed to be wearing the attire of a human monk, but his ears were pointed like theirs and he had a tail. "So where can I find him?" Miroku asked impatiently. "We don't know. About 1 night ago he was taken by a man dressed in a white monkey outfit. We followed after him as soon as we could get our pack together. He had been acting weird before this though. What was the weirdest though was when he came back two days ago, he had the scent of a human, his ears were shaped like humans and he didn't have a tail," one of the guards explained. Miroku looked at the ground. Naraku. What did Naraku want with Kouga? Was it possible he knew about Miroku's situation? Could he add this as an advantage against him? "So what business do you have with Kouga?" one girl asked. A wolf came over to Miroku and sat down beside him, he started to stroke it's back. "Well, it's quiet complicated, I wouldn't know where to begin"
"That's ok, you don't need to tell us, here" he handed Miroku a cup of water, "thirsty?"
"O thank you," Miroku said as he politely accepted it and drank. He was exhausted from the grueling, nonstop run he had made from their den to here. He paused and looked over to Kagome, Inuyasha and the rest of them. They were settled against the wall side of the cliff, and were intently looking at him. Some of the pack members shifted to look at what he was looking at. "Are they with you?" one asked. "Yes they are"
"They are welcome to join us then"
"Mm-hm," said Miroku as he got up and walked over to them, two wolves followed him. Kagome looked at the wolves and eeped. "They said you could come over there if you wanted to, its much more warm over there than here"
"No I'm good," said Inuyasha as he looked away, he had not forgotten their past experience with this pack. Miroku looked over to Sango, she looked away from him. "Sango mind joining me?" She looked back to him, "Me?" He looked around, "I don't see any other Sango's and if there were they wouldn't be as beautiful as you are," he held out his hand and she took it to stand up, she was blushing. As they walked back to the pack he looked back. "You sure you guys are fine over here?"
"Yah I'm sure," said Inuyasha. Shippou looked between the two of them then looked at Kagome. "Go ahead if you want to Shippou"
"K, see you Kagome!" exclaimed Shippou as he jumped off her lap and ran over to Miroku and Sango. As Miroku, Sango, and Shippou walked away Kagome got out her sleeping bag. She got into it and looked up at Inuyasha, he seemed to be starring at the pack intently. "What is it?"
"Naraku took Kouga"
"Oh my god is that what they said?"
"Yah," said Inuyasha as he closed his eyes. Kagome sighed and closed her eyes as well, she fell asleep in a matter of minutes.
Sango sat down beside Miroku. She was a bit scared. Miroku seemed to lessen the feeling she had. She took her head from his shoulder and looked at him. He looked back at her. She quickly looked away and told Shippou to come over by her. Shippou was in between two wolves, either they were teasing him or they were seriously thinking about dinner. He squealed and ran up to Sango. "Tasha, Mido don't tease the fox," said one of the pack members. They turned and went to another part of the group. Sango was too tired to care where she was by now. She put her head back on Miroku's shoulder and almost instantly fell asleep. Shippou curled up on Sango's lap and went to sleep as well. "Odd group you travel with," said one. "Yeah, but they're like my pack to me," replied Miroku. The guy shrugged. Miroku liked this. This pack felt like his family. He knew that he only felt like this because of his wolf senses, but at the same time it also did feel like his family. He slowly started to fall asleep, with Sango propped up on his shoulder. In the morning he would go out again and try to find Kouga, though he didn't see much hope in finding him, if Naraku had indeed taken him. "There's always tomorrow," he thought to himself as he drifted off into sleep.
