Disclaimer: I'll never own Inuyasha!!

Boomerang-chan is soooo happy! You know, a few hours after posting chapter 12 yesterday, I was watching Yu Yu Hakusho and I saw a commercial that made me so happy! ^-^ Rurouni Kenshin is on Saturdays! At least they're still showing it, but cartoon network is still evil! They should show it 5 days a week, not just on Saturday! Thank Akurei for telling me the time! Gah! CN ARE BAKA BUTTHEADS!

Chapter Thirteen

Cold, Part One

Kagome, Miroku, Ranko, Shippo, and Sango were hanging out at the mall in the food court, sharing a pizza amongst them.

Sango hadn't seen Naraku for two weeks. She was actually glad. He was so... possessive of her. Unlike...

Sango looked up and smiled. Kagome was stifling laughs as Ranko strangled Miroku, probably for letting his hands wander off by themselves again.

"Miroku! Your hands are too perverted to be out on their own!" Ranko hissed at him. Miroku laughed, face going red from losing air.

Sango's smile faded as she felt something cold rub against her cheek. Stopping herself from shivering, Sango turned to see Naraku caressing her cheek with his always chilling fingers.

Miroku, Ranko, and Kagome went silent as Sango glared frostily at Naraku. Naraku smirked. "What love, didn't miss me?" he sneered.

Sango growled. "I am not your love, Naraku. It's over between us." 'I'm so sick of him acting as if he owns me!'

Naraku narrowed his eyes. "You can't get away from me that easily Sango." Sango narrowed her eyes, glaring even more. Naraku smirked, then left to join a group of friends of his that looked just as nasty as he did.

Sango let the shiver run down her spine. "He's such a possessive bastard!" she spat.

Miroku looked at Sango. She was fuming, cheeks reddening and sparks flying from her eyes like a thundercloud. 'She's pretty when she's angry.' He thought to himself.

"Uh... hey," said Kagome, "Wanting to break the silence, "You three want to come with me to my house. It's been a while since I last visited."

"Sure..." said Sango.

"Okay, do you have a sister?" Miroku asked.

Ranko tugged his ear before replying. "That'd be cool!"

'Yes! Another chance for matchmaker Kagome!' Kagome gleefully thought to herself.

Having walked to the mall, all three took a taxi to Kagome's house. When they saw her house, all three of their jaws dropped.

"That's your house, Kagome? It's so awesome!" exclaimed Ranko.

It was one of those ancient houses in which pretty much everything had a story hidden behind it. There was a massive tree by the house, as well as a well house.

Sango passed a sign which read, 'Higurashi Shrine.' Kagome entered the house and called, "Everyone! I'm home!"

There was a clattering from upstairs and a boy came running down the stairs. "Hey Kagome! Who are they? And is Inuyasha with you?" he asked.

"This is Souta," Kagome introduced, "He's my younger brother. No, Inuyasha is not with me."

When Souta turned to call their mother and grandfather, Kagome added to them in a whisper. "Souta idolizes Inuyasha."

Ranko and Miroku laughed. "Oh yeah, the perfect role model." Said Sango.

They met Kagome's mother, who seemed the type to always welcome guests. Their grandfather started a story about the house, but Kagome stopped him, dragging her friends away and outside. She gave them a tour around the place, showing them the Go-Shinboku tree which a lot bigger when up close, and last of all, the Bone Eaters Well.

Kagome let Sango and Miroku in first, winking at Ranko. Ranko made a big knowing 'Oh' silently with her mouth. Kagome grinned at her and both tried not to laugh.

Miroku walked over to the well and looked down. Sango approached from behind and looked over his shoulder.

Miroku blinked. The light seemed to be thinning from inside. He widened his eyes, realizing what was going on. "Hey!" he yelled as the doors shut close. He ran over, pulling and pushing vainly on the door. He heard Ranko and Kagome's giggles from the other side.

"Kagome! Ranko! Open the door!" yelled Sango, banging louder than Ranko could ever have done.

"Have fun in there you two!" Kagome laughed, before she scurried off with Ranko.

Sango sighed. Great, now she was stuck in a dark place with Miroku.

'But haven't you wanted to be alone with him before?' nagged an inner voice.

'What?! No!!!' she thought back.

'Sure you don't. You did want him to like the real you, not the Exterminator you, remember?'

'Rgh! SHUT UP!'

"Uh, Sango, who are you telling to shut up?" Miroku asked.

Sango gasped. She had said that out loud. "Baka Sango!" she cried, only to mutter to herself angrily. 'Now he must really think I'm nuts!'

"Well, it seems we can't get out until Kagome lets us." Miroku sighed.

"No, really?" Sango murmured sarcastically. Miroku began walking around, trying to find Sango, hands outstretched.

Kagome and Ranko had returned, ears pressed to the door. "I can't hear anything!" Ranko whispered.

"Sh! It'll take awhile because Sango's a tough girl to get through. Just--"

"HENTAI! GET YOUR HANDS OFF MY CHEST!" They jumped back as Sango's voice exploded from within.

Miroku backed up. "Sorry, I... I was trying to find you in all this...dark..." he stuttered. He could almost feel the angry heat rising from her.

He heard her say something to herself before sitting down. Sango leaned her back against the well when he heard Miroku sit down next to her. "What are you doing?" she asked suspiciously.

"Nothing." He answered. Sango looked in his general direction were his voice had come from. It sounded truthful enough...

'You can make the most of it! Do something!' the nagging voice piped up again. Before Sango realized it, as if the voice had made her do it, she leaned her head on his shoulder.

Miroku almost jumped out of his skin. Sango! Sango was leaning on him! Afraid she would move away, he remained motionless.

The moment did not last long as something crashed into the walls around them. Sango and Miroku jolted up as Ranko and Kagome shrieked.

The wall was rammed into again and light filtered in.

"I told you... you can't get away from me that easily... Sango." Said a frozen and foreboding voice Sango greatly despised.

Miroku and Sango saw a head appear silhouetted in the light. Pale with crimson eyes and a sinister grin, long inky hair fluttering behind him.

"N-Naraku..." Sango said in a hushed voice.

Bwuhahaha! I just had to leave it here! I would continue... but, well, where would the fun be in that?

I'll update soon! Promise! Probably tomorrow! ^___^

Reviews:

Shimotsuki: I HATE the way they did Shippo's voice! He sounds constipated if you ask me. X_X I've never heard how the original Kohaku's voice is, but he' s like eleven isn't he? He sounds like 18 or something! And another, why change Kirara to Kilala? I mean if you do that, they might as well call Miroku, Miloku and Naraku, Nalaku. I know about that whole r and l thing but still! Did I ever mention your name is cool too? Ehat is with me and names...

Kitai Matsuru: Yah, I was all pissed. August?! That's so loooong from now! Stupid CN! Great... dubbed. Haha! Do you like sadness cuz you like to see people suffer? On of my friends is like that. She's strange. O_O Hehe, I once wrote a review that was almost half a page long once.

Moon Prynces: Haha! That what mostly everyone thought! Yah! I tried a bazillion times too to get on to ff.net, but my Internet was also veeeeeeeery slow that day too. Baka!! You so gotta update that story! It's cool! You know, I was watching Yu Yu Hakusho a few hours after potsing ch. 12 and that's when I saw a commercial for RK on Saturdays and went all hyper.

kyebaka: Hehe! Just imagine Miroku wearing a tie and all! ^_^ Hey, don't worry! I get crazy all the time, especially when I watch RK. I guess Sango doesn't want Miroku to know cuz she wants him to like her for who she really is not the exterminator, okay now I'm confusing myself...

Waterflash: blush blush blush. ///^_^/// You are so nice! You know what, I love it too! It's so fun to write, okay, now I am starting to sound real crazy.
