Disclaimer: Eh, no. Not mine. Ranko and Akina? Yes. But I wish had Sango's
Hiraikotsu to clobber Akina with right now.
A/N: Bwuhahahaha! I just had a wonderful idea a few minutes ago! Lil- strange-person said Sango should go with Naraku for now and this other person Harmony said not Hojo in my other fic so I came up with this idea! Hehehehe... XD

Chapter Nine
The Rise and Fall
Weeks whizzed by and winter soon arrived. Drops of snow began to fall from the clouds high above. Stores and houses began to glow with the soft lights that were enchantingly warm.
It was this night, the night of Christmas Eve that some people's lives would change forever.
Kagome was having a Christmas party at her dorm that night. She had invited so many people, some her friends knew, others they didn't. The room was beginning to get very stuffy and many began going outside. Soon Miroku had to open up his dorm for the party as well.
There was a huge Christmas tree in the living room, so tall its tip brushed the ceiling. Kagome was bringing out decorations while Inuyasha and Kouga fought each other, both trying to put up the Christmas tree to help Kagome. Kagome eventually got red from impatience.
"Miroku, can you just do it, because it seems that Kouga and Inuyasha can't seem to put up a Christmas tree!!"
Kouga and Inuyasha slouched away as Miroku took over. 'This is my chance!' Kagome thought happily to herself.
"Hey Sango, do you think you and Miroku could take care of the rest of the decorations while I-uh, greet the guests?"
Sango blinked at Kagome. Once, twice, then nodded. Kagome clapped her hands enthusiastically. "Thanks so much!" She ran out, humming to herself.
Sango watched Kagome disappear into the swirling crowd of people. She turned to see Miroku had set the tree in place and was already almost finished putting the lights around it. She walked past him and to the boxes Kagome had brought downstairs.
There were a huge assortment of ornaments, from balls to candy canes to little Santa Clauses and reindeer. Scooping up a few, she began placing them lightly on the branches.
Not too far off, Kagome and Ranko stood in the shadows. "Ranko, did you put it in place?"
"Yes, of course!" Ranko exclaimed.
"Shhhh! Let's leave these two alone!" Kagome hissed. And both girls blended back into the gathering.
Miroku looked at Sango from the corner of his eye. She was really silent and in the middle of separating some knotted decoration. Sango's face was looked slightly frustrated, her eyebrows slanted smoothly with concentration as she bit down on her lip. The golden light illuminated her lightly blushing face, shadowing and lightening up the strong features on her face.
Sango finally undid the clustered knot and a small smile appeared. She felt eyes on her and looked up with curiosity.
Miroku looked away as her soft brown eyes fell upon him. He saw her tilt her head to the side slightly and blink. Her dark hair slipped over one shoulder. Gods, how he wanted to run his fingers through her hair!
Sango continued to study him. His eyes seemed to change from hues of blue and violet in the light. The side of his face she was looking at was shadowed and for a moment seemed almost sad. Shaking her head, Sango returned back to the tree.
She was just placing a bright ruby red ball on a branch when his hand brushed over hers. She slid her hand away and let it drop to her side like a rag doll. Face flushing, she averted her eyes to the floor.
"Sango." Called Miroku's voice. It sounded hoarse and less composed than usual. As she turned her face to look at him, he spoke again in that same husky voice.
"Look." She lifted her eyes to follow his gaze. There, above her head was the unmistakable mistletoe. Sango's cheeks turned darker and she immediately looked down again.
"Misteltoe..." she whispered. The room suddenly felt very warm and she felt tingly all over. She felt Miroku draw closer to her and she lifted her head slowly.
Miroku came closer to Sango, his heart beating wildly. He watched her angelic face rise slowly. Her dark lashes obscuring her eyes slightly. Miroku began to lean forward, his lips already beginning to part.
Sango hesitated, before she began coming closer to him as well. She swallowed, feeling as if her heart was fluttering in her throat. Everything seemed to have materialized away except for him and the golden lights which suddenly seemed to whirl around in her vision.
A scent unlike any other assaulted her senses. It was like pine trees and tea mixed with a scent that was unique and belonged only, and exclusively to him. He was so close now she could feel his breaths feathering against her lips.
Miroku felt his bottom lip brush Sango's lightly. His eyes were slowly closing as hers were already. He went to deepen the kiss, feeling a tingling sensation run through him.
"Miroku..." called a soft voice as he was about to press himself fully to Sango. He snapped up with attention and turned to see Akina.
"Akina..." he murmured. Sango watched as Akina beckoned to him with one delicate porcelain hand. He didn't look at her again as he strode over to her.
Sango suddenly felt like she was shoved into a tub full of icy water. Her heart dropped from her throat to her stomach. An unbidden tear slid out from the corner of each eye, gliding down both cheeks that were turning from pink to pale.
Both teardrops slid off her face and fell down to the floor in a perfect crystal-like bead. As the drops splattered to the floor, the sound seemed to reverberate loudly in her ears.
Something cool slid against her cheek and she looked up, but before she could react, she felt chilling lips descend upon hers. Her face blushed so deeply and her heart shot up to her throat again.
Sango looked at the person who bestowed the kiss on her. He had inky black hair that was long and his eyes were very dark. He had a sort of mysterious and shadowy aura around him that Sango couldn't quite place, but it seemed to make the room seem dimmer.
"I saw everything that happened." He whispered.
Sango looked down at her feet as if they were the most interesting thing in the world.
"He never finished what he meant to do to leave with that red-haired girl. If he cannot see how good you are, then he doesn't deserve someone like you." He continued.
Sango looked up, eyes still sorrowful but with flaring anger tracing the edges.
"Miroku has always been the type to break women's hearts and I don't think you want to have that happen to you."
Sango frowned, as anger boiled up inside of her. 'He wants to break my heart does he? Well then, Miroku, two can play at this game.' She thought herself.
"Who... are you?" Sango whispered.
"Naraku." He answered, "And I can help you."
There were footsteps that began coming in and Sango set her jaw in determined anger. She leaned forward and initiated a kiss on Naraku. He felt cold against her, and she wasn't entirely happy with how she felt inside. She felt nothing from him unlike what she had felt from Miroku, and he had barely touched his lip to hers. She pushed that thought aside and closed her eyes.
Miroku stood by the doorway, almost dropping his glass of punch. Akina stood next to him, cooing him with that lilting voice. He neither heard her nor felt her cuddling up to him. All he could do was stare openmouthed at the scene before him. He felt his heart drop to the pit of his stomach.
'No... don't... Have I lost her...? Sango...'
Naraku smirked to himself as they broke the kiss. 'Human emotions are so easy to manipulate.'
