Authors Note: I am really sorry about the wait. I was stuck with writers block, and then I rewrote everything I had because it sounded horrible. Forgive me! Well, no one is home today so I thought, hey, why the heck not just finish this story today and post a chapter a day. Hopefully I can accomplish my goal. We'll see! Enjoy! Please read and review! (The point of view starts as Miroku)

----------=Changed points of view [From Miroku to Sango]

Chapter 4 [The Way History Was Rewritten]

I feel nothing. The air is thin around me in a vast black abyss of emptiness. I attempt to move my body but I cannot even feel the motions I've been causing. This has to be the place set for my next task. I am here without my dear Sango beside me, which's how I decided. If I can't do anything in this world then how am I supposed to complete our next assigned challenge? How will I get back to Sango?

A small scene flashed through my mind and it's complete memories. I don't recognize the time nor place, not even the clothes I'm in. A girl, who I'm not familiar with, shouts my name to me then releases her bow. The arrow seems to loom closer as if in slow motion. I feel like I'm heartbroken when the arrow strikes and pierces me straight through the heart. My hands splayed across the thing I'm pinned to and I feel the rough texture of bark beneath them. All I can think about is how I'm going to get out and…that girl was very good looking.

----------

"Hello? Hello!" I yell desperately to the darker world around me," HELLO?"

No one answers my rather loud plea to come to my rescue. Below the weight of my feet the ground feels soft like dirt until I step on something with a loud crunch. I kneel down to see that the bone shattering crack were actually bones crushing beneath me. I'm in the bone eaters well. I look to the heavens and sure enough the sky is smiling down at me. I feel complacent for once in this whole ordeal.

I find one-foot hole after another until I reach solid ground and step out. My hair swirls around my body as the soft wind catches my raven locks. There's a nice cool draft swaying the bottom of my kimono and another one is nicely cooling me down at my stomach area. But…I don't have any clothes that are in two pieces! I'm not wearing my own clothes! I'm…I'm…in Kagome's! Except the fuku I am dressed in is a dark red, much like the color on my demon exterminating uniform.

It occurs to me that somehow I've been transported back into Feudal Japan, without having to confront the witch one last final time. There was only one peculiar thing about my surrounding and that factor was my clothing, but now I was finally home. A rush of excitement burst from somewhere deep within me as I run into Inuyasha's forest to find the others. Hopefully Miroku would be just as jovial as me to know that we have returned, although I'm not complaining that I might have been able to kiss him.

I feel a song on my lips and I smile gaily as my mouth starts vibrating into a soft hum. Odd, I've never felt like humming before. Then my gait turns into a small hop after the other. I'm skipping! Kagome doesn't even do that, or at least she didn't when I met her.

Then I see it, rather, him. Miroku. He's on the tree Inuyasha was pinned to for fifty years. I walk closer without consciously realizing it until it's too late. I stand directly in front of him, face to face. He looks peaceful in his solemn slumber. The outfit is different, but he still looks rather handsome. I blush at the notion and then I notice my hands are betraying my thoughts. I'm rubbing his small fuzzy dog-like ears perched upon his head! I hear and feel a growl emanate from deep inside his chest…he's purring. Do dogs even purr? And when had he gotten ears like that?

----------

I feel my heart rate speed up. Finally it's at a normal rate like it should be. Keh, it took long enough. Now I can clearly make out a girl giggling and I'm receiving pleasure of some kind that I don't know. I'm growling…or maybe…purring? I can't tell. All of a sudden I have the strength to open my eyes and my lids shoot wide.

"Why…hello!" Sango smiles at me and laughs in a girly way some more.

She reminds me of that girl that shot me. Maybe she is that girl!

"Sikyo, I know it's you! Come to get me again, have 'ya?" I don't know where that came from! Sikyo? Who's Sikyo?

"Sikyo? Who's that?"

My point exactly but instead I call out," You, that's who. The girl who pinned me to this tree with her enchanted arrow. Come to really finish me off? What's wrong Sikyo? Scared?!"

"Sikyo? I don't know who the heck Sikyo is, but I'm not her!"

You tell-uh-me! I know you're not Sikyo! You're Sango! No matter how weird you're acting.

"Yeah right, Sikyo! Now I'm telling you you're her otherwise you wouldn't smell-" I sniff involuntarily," You're not her…"

"You're right it's not her! I'm not Sikyo! I'm Sango! San-go!" She's real close to my face now and we're both scowling at each other. I really don't want to be rude, but my big yap won't shut up.

We both look up, surprised by a sound coming from the other direction in the forest.

"It's coming." I say creepily as the thing lurches forward.

It looked like a big snake coming straight for us.

----------

Ew! That thing looks icky! What am I saying? If I had Hiraikotsu I'd chop that thing in half with one swing! No problem! For some reason having what seems to be Kagome's former mind is a lot harder than I thought.

"The jewel, give me the jewel," The creature calls out in a menacing tone. It's short human-like limbs reach out to grasp my waist as it flings me in the air. A small pink round ball emerges from somewhere underneath my blouse. Crimson blood stains the side of my shirt as the tear in my body starts reacting. I plummet towards the ground without anything to break my fall. Instead of accepting that I was soon to be known as a flat human I tucked into a ball before flipping out and landing on the ground gracefully.

Miroku and I stare at each other in astonishment before I am suddenly crushed to him by the snake being. Both of us yank and push somewhat involuntarily, trying to gain some space between our bodies that seem to be clamped together.

"Oooh, why are we here…." I groan prior to continuing," Houshi-sama…why?"

"I'm sorry about what I was accusing you of before, I don't know what came over me. Forgive me? Unnnh."

"Uhhh, yeah, I do, now stop talking and let's do some action."

"Sango, I never thought of you as that kind of girl…"

"Hentai! Unnnn, I would slap you if I could locate my hands." This conversation was getting us nowhere and the struggling was simply futile.

"I can…" it seems that he finally located that lecherous grin of his," It's on my…"

"Don't.Make.Me.Hurt.You."

"Then pull it out." he lowered his head and nodded, acknowledging the arrow still embedded in his flesh.

My hand never felt so strange as it touched the slim wooden shaft. A tingling shot up my whole arm and all I could think of doing was cry out. It quickly disintegrated and an aura of energy formed around Miroku until he was able to cut straight threw that horrible thing with just his claws.

----------

Three visible streaks of gold flashed by as my claws swooped one direction and then another until I was finally fed up. Feh, that creature had absolutely nothin on me. Ahem, I honestly didn't mean that.

"Iron-reaver soul stealer!"

Its whole body was destroyed into smaller portions that still wriggled about. Kaede and many other villagers ran to the scene while looking at me as if I were some sort of freak.

"Eww!" Sango screeched while looking over the body's remains, I couldn't blame her.

"Find the glowing flesh, child. Otherwise Mistress Centipede shall come back to life."

"The-there!"

The old woman reached in while making some squishing noises and promptly held the Shikon Jewel up for our eyes to feast upon. My instincts were telling me to rip her apart, steal the jewel, then run off, but I knew better. Kaede firmly placed the Shikon-no-tama in Sango's palm and I resisted every urge to lick my chops.

"Child, this belongs to you. It was in your body after all."

"Now if you don't mind...I'll be taking that from you."

"Houshi-sama..." she looked at me as if she were shocked. I couldn't stop, and before I knew it I had lunged at her and swiped my claws. Luckily she had tripped and dodged my oncoming attack.

We ran and jumped, fighting for dominance over this one little ball. My mind was yelling at me, telling me I didn't need it, but my body had a will of its own. I wanted to catch her as once again she tripped at the edge of a bridge. I took my chance to jump, soar, then land on the other side to where the ball was rolling.

A little closer...just a little further.

Beads were starting to materialize around my neck and I immediately knew what they were for. In order to get me to stop Sango would have to tell me to "Sit" just like the way Kagome does. It was just a game. Fight, say sit, then get back to those fleeting glances and crushes. That was exactly how Inuyasha and Kagome played with their love.

"Say the word of subjugation!"

"But...but...no."

Say it Sango, please. I don't want to hurt you.

----------

I can't say it, I can't hurt him. It brings me enough pain seeing him fall in battles, but myself had never once caused it. Well, yes, I do slap him but not hard enough to crush his body within the very earth.

"No, Houshi-sama. I can't hurt you!" The villagers looked at me like I were insane, I'm not, I'm just in love.

"Sango, say it..." he growled while crawling closer on all fours, exactly like his canine counterpart.

"No.."

He was only a few inches away and I could see beads of sweat trickling down his brow as he tried to pull back. Everything he had was trying to protect me from himself. I gasped as his hand found my leg and grasped me right below my knee. One of his claws lightly traced my skin downwards to my ankle and blood trickled down. It didn't hurt, but with one claw he had already drawn blood, imagine what he could do with all five, I shivered at the thought.

"Say it...or I'll lose control." His eyes were pleading with me; the normal amethyst glow was dull and dark.

"Si-Si--Sit boy!"

I flinched as his head smacked loudly into the planks of wood below. His hand reached up again in a spoiled attempt.

"Si--Sit boy!"

Again the flash of pink erupted from the necklace before he yelped and grinded into the floorboards. I was sorry, extremely sorry. I knelt down and lifted his chin with my hand. His face was smudged with dirt and he looked at me as if he had just woken up from a long nap.

"Houshi-sama. I'm sorry."

"That hurt."

My body was tottering forward to meet his advances as he propped himself up on his elbows. His head turned to his left while he closed his eyes and then I just had to do the same. Out of nowhere the bridge below us collapsed and we were falling towards the river---and then...nothing. How could we kiss if we were always going to be interrupted?

"To hurt a loved one can burn,

Like a relentless fire.

You soon will learn,

What each other can desire."

She knew how to push my buttons. I was startled, to say the least, when I felt Houshi-sama grab my waist and pull me against his body.

"Thank you. I don't want to hurt you."

"Houshi-sama," I said breathlessly," You're crushing me."

A bright flash of blue light took over my whole line of vision before we were gone and into the next world. What a strange place it was.

Authors Note: I thought of a new chapter and some ideas while seeing the movie "Pirates of the Caribbean." Yes, expect to see a pirate scene in the near future.
