Onward men: Enter Sango and Miroku
'So, I have a half brother. One that Sesshoumaru just -happened- to forget to tell me about.' Of course her brother would leave out the little fact that she had a hanyou for half sibling. He was part human. And everyone knew how much Fluffy-sama -hates- humans. She just might after meeting Inuyasha if his intelligence level was that of any human. But compared to most people in this village, Kaede mostly, he was just stupid in his own little way. That was a good thing, sort of; it meant that she didn't have to regard humans as Sesshoumaru did.
"Kagome, maybe ye should take Inuyasha with ye travels. It would relieve a great deal of stress from the village and if need be ye can always come back to restock supplies and what not." Kaede almost sounded pleading to Kagome but the old miko would never sound like that. Would she?
"Um, sure Kaede. That is if Inuyasha wants to go." 'Is he really that annoying?' The only answer he gave to the idea was a quickly grunted 'feh'. She took that as a yes. Kagome eyed the dog boy who was sitting against the wall, indian style, with a rusty sword propped up against his shoulder. She arched a brow. "Inuyasha, is that the Testsiga?"
Inuyasha narrowed his eyes at her, clutching the sword closer to him. "What if it is, bitch?"
She narrowed her eyes right back at him. "I was just wondering, geese. Don't need to bite my head off. But I'll take that rather rude answer as a yes." She cocked her head to the side. "Can I see it?"
The corners of his mouth turned up into a smirk and he nodded. "Sure, why not. Outside though. Wouldn't want to ruin Kaedes' lovely hut." He stood and walked from the hut, a somewhat confused Kagome in tow. "Alright, here." He pulled the sword from its sheath and handed it to her with the blade pointed down. He was chuckling in his mind. 'The stupid bitch doesn't know the Testsiga repels all full youkai from…touching...it?' His trail of thought ended when he saw the rusty blade in the girls' hand but the blade was no longer rusty. Had this been an actual anime Inuyasha would have a father large sweat drop rolling down the back of his head.
"Nice blade. Though I don't see why it isn't in this form all the time." She smiled and handed it back, transforming it back to the rusted piece of junk Inuyasha treasured so much. "Good thing you don't let my brother, er, our brother get his hands on it. Kami knows what he would do with it."
A few days later, after stocking on all the necessities for a good trip, Inuyasha and Kagome set out to only their feet knew where. Not many words were exchanged since they both ran and the wind created by it would just whip the words away before the other could receive them. So a comfortable silence had settled over the two, and a few races happened though neither party knew it.
During one of the very few times that the two decided to walk, well it was Kagome who wanted to walk to she had to 'convince' Inuyasha to do the same, they came upon a strange pair of people.
"Henti!!! *Whack*" reached the sensitive ears of the two youkai, making them wince at the volume.
"Really Sango, was that necessary? I already have more than enough bruises from you." A male voice joined the females only it sounded more amused than hurt.
"Then keep you hands to yourself!"
"Sango, love of my life, dearest, honey bun we're married. How can you tell me to keep my-*whack*" She scene Kagome and Inuyasha came upon was in deed a funny one. The man, garbed in purple and black priest robes, was in quite an awkward position on the ground and the woman was holding a Hiraikotsu where the mans head had once been.
When the woman looked up as saw the two of them she let out a sheepish type laugh. "Um, hello." She was reaching down to grope for the guys' robes and yanked him to his feet.
Kagome smiled while Inuyasha eyed the Hiraikotsu and then the large lump forming on the back to the priest dudes head. "Hi. Trouble with the husband?"
At Kagome's words the woman, Sango is what the man had called her, visibly relaxed and let the man go to drop back to the ground. "Yes. Though it seems to be a ritual for him. Feel me up get hit, explain, feel up again, get hit again, ect, ect, ect."
Kagome tilted her head to the side, eyeing the dizzied monk. "But he looks like a priest. Why would he be a letcher?"
Sango just laughed, poking the guys' rips with the toe of her shoe. "Miroku is a monk but he is a womanizing one. I guess it is because he was raised by a monk that was always drunk." She sighed wistfully. "But he is a good guy and he has toned down to just groping me instead of every woman he sees. Even though it doesn't look like it I love him and he knows it."
Kagome smiled at the dreamy look on the woman's face then blinked when the monk on the ground groaned and jumped up to his feet, picking up a discarded staff. "So, what did I miss?" Miroku wiggled his brows up and down at Sango and managed to duck the blow that was sent for his head. "What? It was an innocent comment." Sango just huffed and glared at her husband.
"Oh! How rude of us. I'm Kagome and that there is Inuyasha." She jerked a thumb at the hanyou who just crossed his arms over his chest and fehed. Leaning towards Sango with her hand covering the side of her mouth she whispered, "Not big in the brains department but he's okay."
"Hey! I heard that bitch!" His only response was Kagome sticking her tongue out at him and he growled back.
"Not very proper with language around ladies either."
"Feh, I might be -if- I saw any ladies around." Suddenly the hanyou found himself twitching in pain on the ground with three rather large lumps on the back of his head. One was from Kagome's fist, another from Sango's Hiraikotsu, and the third from Miroku's staff.
"Serves you right Inufasha." Miroku stated with a nod of his head.
"It's InuYAsha you idiot." Came the grumbled reply from the ground then a yelp as the monk hit him again.
"Would you two like to join us? Were just going on a journey to no where yet everywhere."
"Sure!" Came the two happily chirped replies following one hanyous unhappy groan.
And this, my dear readers, is how our group of two turned to a group of four with room yet for anyone else they came upon.
