"The Silent Voice"
By Night Youkai
Chapter 13
"I don't know how much more I can take Sango. Inuyasha is driving me into the ground." Miroku complained as they left the movies. "I know what's on the line, but at this rate I'll dead before we even get to the Nationals."
"Well I didn't know you were afraid of a little work." She teased.
"Work No. Torture YES! Naraku truly scared Inuyasha with the attack on Sesshomaru. Now he's training like there no tomorrow."
"Kagome's the same way, since her run in with Kikyo. Naraku and Kikyo had tried to divide them, but it brought them closer together."
"Yes it did. I heard that they went a week of training under Miko Kaede, Kagome's grandmother."
"They are leaving nothing to chance."
"Neither am I." Miroku and Sango froze. They turned around to see Naraku. Miroku stepped in front of Sango as to shield her with his body.
"What do you want Naraku."
"I'm here to give you a massage for Inuyasha." Naraku threw a punch but Miroku blocked it. "Very good." Naraku increased his speed. It felt like he was surrounded by Naraku. Miroku started to feel hit after hit to his chest, face, and stomach. "But you're not good enough." Miroku then jumped high in to the air to escape the violent attack on his body. Naraku followed suit. That's when he struck.
"Shotanha!" Naraku went flying. He hit the side of the building with such force he was knocked out. Miroku landed a few feet away grabbing his ribs.
"Miroku are you alright?" Sango cried as she ran up to Miroku. Then suddenly she swept up in to his arms. "What the?"
"He's waking. We have to leave." He jumped so high into the air; he soared over the cars and across the street. Once they landed he ran and didn't stop till he was sure they were at a safe distance. When they stopped they were at the park that was close to the school. Miroku set Sango gently down before he fell to his knees in pain.
"Miroku!" Sango dropped down beside him. She didn't know how to help him. 'Inuyasha and Kagome will know how to help.' Sango pulled out her cellpohone and called Kagome. Lucky Inuyasha's house was close by. "Hang on Miroku help is on the way." She held him in her arms and cried.
*****
"Inuyasha take Miroku to your room and remove his jacket and shirt. I'll be right in as soon as I get some more bandages." Kagome held the door open as Inuyasha carried Miroku in to the house. They hadn't been home long when they got the call. Inuyasha drove like a maniac to get Miroku home. Sango was scared as she held Miroku in the back seat, on that wild five- minute ride. It was up to Kagome's miko training to help Miroku now. Sango and Inuyasha were barred from the room because Kagome said they would only distract her. Sango kept pacing the hall.
'You're going to wear a hole in the carpet.' Inuyasha sighed as he leaned against the wall.
"I can't help it. He was hurt so badly. Then when he carried me away from Naraku I know that just made it worst." Sango felt hot tears start to fall. Inuyasha came up to her and patted her on the back.
'Sango he did it for you. He protected you from Naraku because he cares. If he had to do it again I bet he wouldn't change a thing.' Just then Kagome came out of the room. Sango ran pass her to see Miroku. 'So how's he doing Doc?'
*****
"I believe he'll make a full recovery. His ribs were badly bruised and it would seem he put all his energy in to saving Sango. He woke up and told me he use a technique call the Shotanha. It seems to drain him considerably."
'The Shotanha is a combination attack using his Buddhist powers and martial arts training. Sending his energy out against another. Its ten time stronger than a normal punch. It was passed down in his family for generations. For years Miroku has try to master it but he never could.'
"I guess you can do anything when you're in love. He'll need to rest for a few days, before going back to training. The slave I used will heal the bruises a lot faster than, what my grandmother calls. Modern medicine." Inuyasha held Kagome in his arms and kissed her.
'You are amazing.'
*****
Sango knelt by Miroku watching and waiting. She wished she asked Kagome about his condition, but she wanted to be there when he woke up.
"Sango." He whispered
"Miroku are you alright?" he opened his blue eyes and stared into her soft brown eyes.
"I'm fine, as long as I know your okay." He gave he a weak smile and he reached out to take her hand in his. "I fear this will delay our dinner plans this evening."
"It's not a problem. Mrs. Inuhoushi is making beef stew. I'll bring you some when it's ready. Right now you should get some sleep." Sango turn off the lamp and sat in the dark still holding his hand.
"Songo?"
"yes miroku?"
"I love you." A tear rolled downher cheek. She lean over him and place a sweet kiss upon his lips.
"I love you too." With her words lingering in his head he drifted into a restful sleep.
*****
Sasami wheeled through the house looking in on her sleeping children. Sango had fallen asleep on the floor next to Miroku still holding his hand. Sasami sighed as she covered the sleeping girl. It warmed her heart to see young love. Inuyasha was sitting on the couch in the living room with Kagome also asleep in his arms. Sesshomaru and Rin had retired for the night, leaving Sasami alone in the quite of the night.
"My dear Sasami do you still worry about the future?"
"Uncle Myoga I didn't know you were here. Would you like some tea?" Sasami asked as she wheeled in to the kitchen with Myoga right behind her.
"Yes that would be nice, Sasami I'm sure you've heard that the Shikon jewel has been stolen. I cam to see Why Inuyasha hasn't recovered it yet."
"Inuyasha has his reasons. Naraku is the one holding the jewel. This attack on Miroku was proof that he has gotten stronger by using the jewel."
"I see so history is repeating itself."
"Myoga you don't believe the stories are true do you?" Sasami asked as she poured the tea.
"Yes I do. Have I ever been wrong? When it comes to family history?"
"Well you have been known to exaggerate." She set the tea before her uncle and gave him a questiong look.
"Well Sasami I resent that inclination. Just for that I shall recount the story of your great grandfather Inuyoukai." Sasami sighed. Once Myoga got going nothing could shut him up.
"After Inuyoukai had married his miko bride Midoriko the Shikon jewel was safe from all youkai and humans, who sought its power. For years they were happy. They had a son and all seemed right with the world. There was one youkai who despised the great Lord Inuyoukai. His name was Onigumo. Not only did he crave the jewel but he desired the lords beautiful bride. He set out to capture her and the jewel. The great lord fought a brilant battle, but alass he did fall. The Spider youkai would have claimed his prize if the son had not picked up his fathers fallen sword and slain him. That should have finished him but he escaped in the finial blast. When they battled once again the hanyou miko bride was held prisoner and turn against her love. But her heart and her love for her mate broke the spell over her. She gave all her strength to her mate and he stuck the mighty spider down. Onigumo swore with his dying breath that he would one day return to claim the jewel and destory all that the son held dear. The son swore that he would be waiting for the youkai. He prosimed he the next time when he killed him the youkai would not return."
"Uncle Myoga I know this story, but what does it has to do with Inuyasha? We all have known where we come from, but it's been hard on him. I don't want this to cause him more pain." Sasami could hide the tears no longer. She was afraid of what the story could mean for her son.
"Sasami I know you love your child. It's what makes you a great mother. But you can't shield him from his destiny. I've brought something from the family shire I thought you might like to see." Myoga withdrew a scroll from his coat pocket and handed it to Sasami. She took the scroll and gently unrolled the ancient paper. She couldn't believe what she saw.
"How can this be? Its Inuyasha and Kagome. I saw her give him this portrait for Christmas. She drew it her self. I don't understand."
"This is not your son. This is your great grandfather Inuyasha, the Hanyou, and Kagome, his Miko bride. If you look closely you'll notice his ears are not human, but that of a dog. It seems marrying Mikos is a family tradition." Sasami was stunned. She continued to stare at the picture of her great grandparents in the traditional kimonos just Kagome's picture. Inuyasha In the red kimono with the prayer beads she had given him and Kagome in her miko kimono o0f white and red. If she didn't know better she would say it was a coincidence.
"I see. What does this mean for my son and his bride?"
"That is still unclear. Their path is already chosen. What they find on the other end is for them alone."
In the darkness of the living room Inuyasha held Kagome close as tears fell from her eyes. 'Inuyasha I'm scared. What if Naraku tries to kill you? The jewel can give him the power to do so!'
'Kagome. I'm scared too, but not of Naraku killing me. I'm scared he'll try and take you from me or hurt. I couldn't bare it if something happen to you. I know what Myoga says is true in my heart I can feel it. It's my destiny.'
'You mean our destiny I'm your miko bride after all. Myoga said you slain him once already I know you'll defeat him again.' Inuyasha held her tight and promised what ever happen Kagome would always be safe.

Miroku: @_@

Sango: -_-# What was that?
N Y: Nothing. See you when the sun goes down. * runs away real fast.*
