One Chance
Just incase you didn't know this is told from Miroku's point of view
I watched as the old lady start to transform, and to my surprise she turned not into a hideous oni, but in to a beautiful young lady with short shoulder-length jet-black hair which ended in a flame red color. I watched as her cloths changed too, the old blue kimono turned red, with little white flowers rimming it. I could only stare as a creature of such loveliness appeared before me. "Hello Lord Miroku, let me introduce my self properly" She said to me as an intensely mischievous grin played on her soft red lips, "my name is Michiko, I'm a Nogitsune, and I have a proposal for you" She said as her smile grew a more intense form of evil. I raised my staff to a defensive position, "why should I trust an evil fox spirit?" I asked, but she only moved her hand over lips and started to giggle. "And what may I ask is so funny?" I asked as she had my curiosity peeked. She turned her emerald green eyes to me and stared intensely in to my eyes, an intimidating glare set it self in her eyes, she started to talk in a serious, but slightly amused tone, "what's funny is that your right, why should such a noble monk like your self, trust an extremely powerful evil fox spirit which has you boxed in to a room that you can't escape from, with no help from your little friends who have no idea your in terrible danger" she finished, breaking in to a round of giggles. I stared at her slightly embarrassed by the way she had put it. Then it came to me, she must not know about my curse, I can easily defeat her with it, I smiled and waited till she finished giggling. "Perfect plan Michiko, but you forget one thing, my…" but before I could finish she interrupted me, "wind tunnel, lord monk?" she finished, I stared at her, how could she have known. She looked at me an amused look on her face, not at the least bit worried. "You see lord monk I've been following you and your friends for quite some time now, I've also been collecting jewel shards, since you can't see them like Kagoma, I'll tell you how many I have" she paused a bit, building the suspense, "14 in all" she said finally. I started to worry, not even mine and my friends put together would have equaled that much. Maybe she was as powerful as she had said; maybe I am in terrible danger. "Lord Monk you look tired, please have a seat" I turned around to see two chairs and table appears in the middle of the room. I took a seat not sure what else to do, I watched as Michiko took the seat on the opposite side of the table. "We need some more light, candles just wont due for this" she said and with that a window appeared behind me and all the candles blew out. For the first time I saw all her beauty, she was radiant, a goddess. I got out of my seat and grabbed her hands, "will you please bare my child?" I asked, this being the second time I asked a demon I wasn't sure the response. "Don't worry we'll talk about that you horny basted" she said as she rolled her eyes, "but thanks for the offer" she said smiling as she pushed me down hard on my ass. I got up took my sat again and looked at her. "Sake?" she asked as a bottle of the stuff appeared on the table. I looked at it cautiously, wondering if sake was all that was in there. As if reading my thoughts she answered my question, "No Miroku, it's not poisoned, if I wanted to kill you or any thing I would have done it already" she said pouring me a glass. I sipped it, and my great surprise it was the best sake I have ever tasted, I drank more greedily. "Now" she said as I was pouring another glass for my self, "I have found away to get rid of your wind tunnel with out the need to kill Naraku" she said, as she slowly sipped some sake she had poured for herself.
"What?!?" I spat as she sat there calmly, "no, I'm not kidding, and I'll let you know for a price" she said with a wicked smile, and what I heard next changed my life.
