Disclaimer: Own nothing.
Reviewers:
Lil-strange-person - Umm, okay. ^^* I thought about that, but it would confuse me so greatly I would be lost. But Kohaku will be in this fic.
TIMER - I'm trying to make it as different as possible, but near the first part it's not gonna change too much. But don't get me wrong, it'll still change! This chapter has some change! ^^
~*~
Sango was curled up in her blanket, lying on the floor of Kaede's hut, next to the fire. She sighed and sat up. "It's been two days since I came here. My family must be so worried!" She told herself.
"I have to find a way home." Sango said, yawning. "In the morning..." She then lay back down.
On the window sat a 3-eyed crow, watching Sango attentively.
"Caw! Caw!" The 3-eyed crow sounded.
Miroku, whom was sitting outside watching the bird, pegged a rock at it. The 3-eyed crow moved right before the rock hit it and flew off.
Miroku scoffed. "There's the first of the youkai, the Corpse Dancing Crow." He mumbled. (I do realize in the American version playing on Cartoon Network and in the comics, Inuyasha says 'crow demon', but Corpse Dancing Crow is actually about right so that is what it shall be called by Miroku.)
~*~ The Next Morning ~*~
Sango was climbing over a branch, trying to get to the well. "If I came out of it, maybe I can go back in." She reasoned. She had left the giant boomerang back at Kaede's hut.
~*~ In the Village ~*~
Kaede had discovered the lone giant boomerang, and was looking for Sango. "Sango! Sango!!!"
"Nary a sign in the whole village!" A villager said.
"Surely she would not have gone beyond by herself." Kaede said.
Miroku watched with little interest before grabbing his staff and sneaking into Kaede's hut. He took Sango's boomerang and put it on his back. He then ran out.
~*~ To Sango ~*~
Sango was almost to the well. She would be home soon!
Sango let out a muffled scream of surprise as someone grabbed her arm and covered her mouth. She was then pulled away to a hut/house nearby.
Ugly men were around, most of them drunk.
"A girl." One man said.
"Girl..." Another said with drool coming from the side of his mouth.
The person that had Sango restrained pushed her down on the floor after pulling his hand from her mouth. He put his hand on her head to hold her down.
"We bring the foreign vixen-just as you commanded, sir! And a right foolish garb her folk wrapped her in!" The man said to whom seemed to be the leader.
The leader burped.
"LET ME GO! NOW!" Sango shouted, trying to push herself up. She was held down firmly.
"The Shikon..." The leader said. "The Shikon no Tama. Give me the Shikon no Tama."
~*~ To Miroku ~*~
Miroku was running through the forest at fast speeds for a human. He was following Sango's aura.
'Stupid girl! Stupid, idiot, pretty girl!' Miroku thought. After realizing what he said, he scolded himself. 'Bad, Miroku! Don't turn into a pervert!' He then switched his thoughts back. 'Where would she go with the jewel and without Hiraikotsu?!'
~*~ To Sango ~*~
Sango growled. "No!" She put all her strength into throwing the guy holding her down off her and standing.
The leader grabbed Sango and lifted her in the air then threw her down after taking the Shikon no Tama from her,
"GIVE THAT BACK!" Sango shrieked as she stood back up.
A sword swiped past her face, making her fall back down. "Kyaa!"
"Hold 'er." The leader stated.
Two men ran to Sango and lifted her up. They held her tightly by the arms.
"Not this time!" Sango screamed as she twirled around quickly, making the men release her arm and go flying.
Two stronger men grabbed Sango and held her.
"Gonna kill her...what a waste." Someone said.
The leader brought the sword down. Blood spurted around the room. The blood of...one of the men holding her. The leader had brought his sword down into the man's shoulder.
"Made a mistake." The leader stated.
Sango screamed and pulled the other man from her arm. She darted towards the door, only to trip over a loose floor board. She groaned and sat up. Then she noticed a spear to her side. She grabbed it and jumped up. "Stay away from me!" She shouted, holding the spear protectively.
The leader cut the sharp end of the spear right off. He then raised his sword and brought it down. Sango rolled out of the way frantically.
Sango stood and backed up, watching the leader with scared eyes.
"CATCH!" Miroku's voice rang through and soon Sango heard the sound of something coming towards her.
Sango raised her arms up and caught Hiraikotsu, which had been flying through the air. "Ha!" She held the boomerang out in front of her as the leader brought his sword down on it. The boomerang used as a perfect shield!
Sango smirked and pushed the boomerang forward slightly, making the leader fall back. "Hey, Miroku! Where are you?"
"Here." Miroku stated as it was the most obvious thing in the world.
Sango glanced towards the door, where Miroku was standing, holding his staff readily. "Thanks! You saved my life!"
Miroku rolled his eyes. "Where's the Shikon no Tama?"
Sango smiled innocently and pointed to the leader who was getting up.
"YOU LET HIM GET THE JEWEL?!" Miroku shrieked. He ran at the leader and pulled his staff through the guy.
The two halves of the leader fell to each side, and the Corpse Dancing Crow flew above the body, the Shikon no Tama in it's mouth.
"EWW!" Sango screamed.
The Corpse Dancing Crow flew off.
"STOP!" Miroku shouted as he snatched the stick from the spear from Sango and threw it out after the crow. No use.
"Follow me!" Miroku yelled at Sango as he ran in the direction the crow was flying.
Sango rushed after him, carrying her boomerang along.
"Throw Hiraikotsu!" Miroku ordered.
"What?!" Sango yelled.
"Throw it! Yukiko could hit that bird!" Miroku yelled.
"I'm not Yukiko!" Sango shouted. But nevertheless, she threw the boomerang shouting, "HIRAIKOTSU!!!"
Hiraikotsu went past the bird and soon returned to Sango, who caught it.
The Corpse Dancing Crow had swallowed the Shikon no Tama.
Miroku glared at the bird but continued running.
"I thought you said Yukiko could hit the bird!" Sango snarled, running after him.
"I know you're not her!" Miroku snapped.
The Corpse Dancing Crow turned into an uglier bird than it was before.
Miroku and Sango followed the bird into a village.
"A youkai!" Some villagers screamed.
The Corpse Dancing Crow grabbed a young child and took off into the air.
"MY BAAAAAABY!!!" A lady screamed.
"MOOOOOOOOMMY!" The child yelled.
"The change has started!" Miroku shouted in anger.
"What will it do to the child?!" Sango asked frantically.
"The child will be snack!" Miroku yelled back at her. "It feeds on humans!"
"WHAT?! WE HAVE TO SAVE THAT KID!" Sango yelled.
"Get the kid, I'll take care of the bird!" Miroku yelled.
Luckily the Corpse Dancing Crow was still close to the ground. Sango quickly tied Hiraikotsu to her back and ran faster. She lunged at the youkai and grabbed the child, her weight falling pulling the child along with the Corpse Dancing Crow's foot down.
The Corpse Dancing Crow let out a mighty, "CAW!" before diving at Sango.
"Kyaa!" Sango screamed as the child cried in her chest.
Miroku lunged at the Corpse Dancing Crow, pulling his staff right through it and ripping it to pieces, just in time.
Sango smiled at Miroku gratefully then pulled the Corpse Dancing Crow's claw off the child, whom was bawling. "It's okay, you're safe." She assured.
"Do you see the jewel?" Miroku asked Sango.
They looked back to the bird, to see it forming back together.
"Gods! It lives!" Villagers shouted.
The Mother took her child from Sango.
"Under it's wing!" Sango shouted.
Miroku tried to hit the bird with his staff, but missed.
"It will keep flying until it absorbs the Shikon no Tama." Miroku growled.
Sango pulled Hiraikotsu from her back and quickly tied the Corpse Dancing Crow's leg to it. She pulled the boomerang back, then threw it shouting, "HIRAIKOTSU!!!"
"From so far off!" Villagers admired.
Miroku said nothing, but watched the boomerang, thinking something along the lines of 'it'll never make it'.
Hiraikotsu went right through the Corpse Dancing Crow, ripping it to shreds. It then returned to Sango who caught it.
"Yes!" Sango exclaimed.
A brilliant light flooded the area.
Miroku and Sango watched, Sango gasping.
"Kaede-sama, that light!" A villager yelled.
"This does not bode well." Kaede murmured.
Sango and Miroku ran as fast as they could to the area where the Corpse Dancing Crow's remains were.
Sango saw a small light and bent down to pick it up. It was a small shard.
"The Shikon no Tama!" Miroku exclaimed.
"It could be a piece of the jewel." Sango agreed.
"No..." Miroku muttered.
~*~ Later in Kaede's Hut ~*~
"What happened to the jewel, Kaede-sama?" Sango asked.
"When you threw Hiraikotsu, Sango," Kaede said. "it shattered not only the youkai, but the Shikon no Tama within it. It might have split into ten pieces or into a hundred. But now they are scattered everywhere. If a single shard should fall into the hand of an evil spirit, the result might be as ill as if that spirit had devoured the entire jewel!"
Sango gasped.
"What?!" Miroku exclaimed.
"Listen then, Sango, Miroku." Kaede said. "You must gather the shards of the Shikon no Tama and restore it to its original form. TOGETHER."
"You sure, babaa?" Miroku asked. "I'm on of those "evil spirits" after the jewel!"
"For now, there's no other choice." Kaede said.
'I just want to go home.' Sango thought.
