Disclaimer: Feh, as if I could ever own Inuyasha.
A/N: Here it is, I didn't get the 5 reviews that I had hoped for but oh well. I promise either this chapter or the chapter after this wont have a happy ending to it unless I get 5 reviews at least. I know I know, long title, but oh well.
Chapter 6~ Separating the callous facts from the placid fabrication
Hojo gave Sango a looked of dejection and pity as he continued. "I met you one day when you were by a spring, just sitting there, clearly angry at something or rather someone. I asked if you were alone and wanted company and at first you started to send me away but after thinking about it you told me to stay. We exchanged lifetime stories- sort of- then after noticing how late it was getting, I offered to let you stay rent free at my Inn casing you to hastily agree, obviously to piss off someone. The next morning I heard screams coming from my customers. Running down to se what was the matter, I found someone- or rather- some people attacking my Inn. I must admit; I was rather dumbfounded as to who would want to attack an Inn. There were a few demons so immediately I prepared to fight but stopped when one spoke up. They came asking for you, claiming tat if I had hurt you I'd be dead before I could run back inside. I was about to tell him, the demon, that I wasn't handing you over to some strangers, when suddenly a human spoke up. I was raised to be very respectful to my elders and seeing how this man was a monk, I kindly released you, still sleeping, into his custody. Later-"
"I don't mean to rush you or anything Hojo-san, but I'm getting sleepy," Sango said before she yawned, supporting her previous statement. "Do you think you could skip ahead to where they start dieing?" Tears could be seen in Sango's eyes threatening to spill over. But she kept them in, knowing that Hojo might stop telling the story if she did so.
"Ok, let's see umm…"

Kaede began to do some chants and throw herbs in every know and then into a growing pile on the ground. Miroku, Kagome, Inuyasha, and a extremely confused Shippo watched in awe.
"Shippo, when did you get here?" Kagome asked.
"A little while ago, what's going on?" he asked.
"You'll see," she answered not taking her eyes off Kaede.

"Well you guys decided that it would be better to have more help fighting Naraku, so I was there… Miroku was so happy because he had finally found someone who would bear his child. He found her from Kagome's time when you guys went to visit her. So afterwards he started paying less attention to you and more attention to her. She could fight, was downright gorgeous and she wanted to bear his child. Said she wanted more responsibility in her life. I could see it in your eyes, the pain. You said you didn't care for him, but you did. Then, then something happened. Saranhari (Sear-en-ha-ree)- that was the girl's name, cheated on Miroku and he was sad. You were so angry with him for ignoring you like he did so you claimed that it was because she was a mindless slut. He had become slightly barmy and particularly irritated, so he did something, something that he might never have done if things weren't the way they were. He slapped you Sango-san," he informed her watching as her face contorted in agony, surprise, and then lastly in rage. He wrapped his arms around her rocking her gently and she cried. He kissed the top of her head whispering that it was alright. She stopped crying so suddenly that it threw Hojo's equilibrium off causing him to fall off the log. Sango just blinked and then did something that shocked even Hojo. She kissed Hojo pushing him off the log and soon had him straddled on the ground beside the log.

Once Kaede had summoned Sango they all dropped their mouths in awe at what they saw… especially Miroku.

Sango's mind had went mostly except for the task at hand. She moved her lips to his ear and whispered so clearly and with so much happiness it both confused and surprised Hojo. "I want you to be my first."
