Disclaimer: I don't own him.
Inu: Wow, three chapters in a day. You are on a roll, Sara.
Sara: Yeah, well, when you're sick, cant read fanfics because of your brother, cant chat with your friends online because they are all at school, and there isn't anything on tv, there really isn't anything to do.
Inu: Oh, so you basically have nothing to do but talk to me and write, right?
Sara: Yep.
Rikora= tell your mom I said happy birthday! * looks at inu who is confused * He says so too, right? * he nods, still a little confused * you need to get out more, Inu. Really? You wanna put me in one of our stories?? I feel so special! T_T I would be honored. Is Sesshy having fun over there? ~_^ I hope you are enjoying yourself, and make the most of the next few days with him! I don't care if I have to fight for him, but I would like to win. . .
Inu: Win?? What do you mean 'win'?? Why do I have to be with you or that other girl?
Sara: Well, Inu, right now you are with me, and you haven't complained. If I win, I will make ramen for you. . .
Inu: PLEASE, RIKORA!! LET HER WIN!
Sara: That's what I thought . . . ^_^
~*~Chapter Seventeen: Day One~*~ (A/N: nice title, eh? ^_^)
Inu Yasha turned to looks at those who were entering the riverbank. He and Sara walked to them and they began to talk.
"Oh! I thought something had happened because I saw the soul collectors and I knew that you two were over here and I didn't know what was gonna happen and-"
"KAGOME!" Inu Yasha said, stopping the slur of words spilling from her mouth. "We are fine, Kikyo just came to talk." Sara looked up at him and saw his ears twitch. 'Liar,' she accused to herself.
Sara suddenly yawned, drawing the attentions to her. She looked at them, as their looked at her is surprise. They hadn't expected a yawn, seeing as how it was well past six in the morning. "What?" Sara asked.
Kagome followed the suit. She hadn't realized how tired she had become. "I think we should go back to camp. I am very tired." Sara led the way, followed by Sango, Kagome, and Shippo, back to camp. Inu Yasha and Miroku brought up the rear, trailing behind in their own thoughts (A/N: they seem to be doing that a lot, eh?). The girls were busy talking to notice the fall of their companions.
"So, what are you all traveling together for?" Sara asked, clasping her hands behind her head. The breeze had become warm, and the rays of sun had also increased the temperature. They walked to the fire, which still had a few embers glowing.
"Well, Sango is traveling with me and Inu Yasha because she wishes to avenge the death of her village. Miroku wishes to put a curse to rest and also avenge the deaths of family. Shippo," Kagome continued, patting the kitsune on the head, "we found after he had been attacked. As for Inu Yasha and I, we found each other under the Goshinboku. I was the one who lifted the spell." Sara looked at Kagome as if she was an angel. This girl had released her love. "But, with the breaking of the spell, also came the breaking of the Shikon no Tama."
"How on earth did the jewel break? Who would be stupid enough to-" Sara began.
"You are looking at the wench who did it," Inu Yasha said, taking a seat next to the wolf hanyou. Miroku sat between Sara and Kagome, and across from his beloved Sango. "She shot a crow who had swallowed the damn thing and shattered the sacred jewel. We are on an adventure. We are to find every shard." Inu Yasha explained what had happened with Kikyo, with the exclusion of the time frame in which he had left, to the entire group: how the betrayal took place and why he still had to look for Naraku in her name. He was a little curious as to why no one had seemed shocked when he had said he never loved Kikyo after hearing that they all thought he was. The only reason he could think for it was that Miroku must have already told them.
As Inu Yasha was finishing his tale of what Kikyo had said to him and Sara by the river, he felt an odd sort of weight on his shoulder and stopped talking. The whole group looked up at the cease of words. Sara had fallen asleep to Inu Yasha's rhythmic voice. Her brown hair fell over her face, partially covering the smile that played on her lips. One of her knees was bent, sticking up in the air, and slumped over the other. Her arms were across her lap. Sara's mouth was open just a crack, making her breath audible.
"I think," Sango said, smirking at the scene, "that we should at least get a little sleep before we head out." They all grabbed their sleeping bags that Kagome had generously brought from her time, and sprawled them across the grass. All, that is except the two who were sitting, one awake while the other sleeping peacefully.
'Maybe I should tell her first,' Inu Yasha thought, looking down at Sara's sleeping face. A smile graced his as he gave into sleep like the others.
~*~
Inu Yasha was the first to wake up. His eyes opened lazily as he observed his fellow travelers. The houshi had scooted dangerously close to the schoolgirl and taijiya during the night. Shippo was snuggled by Kagome's head, wrapped up in his tail. Inu Yasha was about to stretch his arms when he realized something, or rather someone, was lying against him. Moving his arms would prove a mistake because he had, while sleeping, wrapped them around the young girl's waist, as she done to his. He placed his chin atop her head, taking in her scent. It was like vanilla plants that grew near hot springs. Apples also joined the vanilla aroma. Never had Inu Yasha encountered such a mix of smells. One or the other, yes, but never together. It was intoxicating. He seemed to be drowning in this new scent. Inu Yasha moved his head so that his nose was at her neck and he breathed in again. His breath sent shivers down Sara's back, causing her to awaken. When she realized he was sniffing her, she laughed lightly.
He froze, face turning red, but stayed in the spot where her neck and shoulders met. He had been caught and there was no turning back now. He took one last deep inhalation and removed his face, but not before it happened.
"Inu Yasha! Osuwari!" The all too familiar subduing spell was cast. Kagome had woken up to see Inu Yasha advancing on a sleeping girl. In love with her or not, she was, or at least had been, sleeping. Now, he was face first in the dirt beside Sara, who was sent for a whirl when the man had started kissing the ground. Inu Yasha said all the curses he could think of. Sara sat, bewildered, as the spell wore off.
"What in the hell happened?" She said, looking at Kagome. The schoolgirl sat up in her sleeping bag, arms crossed, with a scowl plaguing her soft features. The others were waking up, and Sango noticed Inu Yasha in a crater next to Sara, and Kagome's pissed off position. She couldn't help but ask the same question.
"He," Kagome pointed an accusing finger at the hanyou crawling into another spot next to Sara, "was pulling a Miroku on Sara!" Sango glared at Inu Yasha and Miroku. "He was all over her while she slept!"
"Why are you glaring at me, Lady Sango?" Miroku said, rather nervous. "I kept my hands to myself through the morning. I do believe that Kagome was merely using me as an example. It doesn't mean I had anything to do with Inu Yasha's perverted activities."
Inu Yasha's eye began to twitch as a nerve was threatening to burst out of his skull. "Excuse me," Sango, Miroku, and Kagome's eyes landed on him, "but she did wake up, and if she was bothered, she would have said something. . ." Kagome blushed deeper then ever.
"Oh, my!" she said, hands going to her mouth. "I am so sorry for interrupting you! Gomen!!" Inu Yasha just 'feh'-ed and Sara shrugged. Kagome tried to change the subject. "Well, um, I do believe now is as good a time as any to start our search. Would you like to tell Koga where we are going?"
Sara shook her head. "If he trusts you, I should be fine."
"All right," Kagome started to take every one's sleeping bags. When the camp had been packed away into the large, yellow backpack that had traveled for one full year, they all headed for the forest. Inu Yasha led the way with Miroku, Sara walked behind them, and Kagome chatted with Sango in the back. Shippo sat on Inu Yasha's shoulder.
They all walked together, the breeze blowing lightly. The sun, however, beat down on them through the trees, bearing heat down on the group. Sweat trickled down every face, exhaustions evident on the humans. Sara noticed this and smiled at her idea.
"Hey, everyone!" She called. They all stopped and looked at her. "I smell water, so why not break for now and take a swim?" Sara rubbed her hands together and awaited replies. Kagome and Sango brightened at the suggestion and immediately agreed. And of course, the houshi also wanted to swim, not passing up the chance to see the girls in what Kagome called bathing suits that revealed much flesh. Sara smiled even more. "Majority wins! Follow me!" She ran deeper into the trees. In order to keep up with her speed, Kirara transformed (A/N: didn't think she was there, did ya? ^_^) and Miroku and Sango climbed on her. Kagome crawled onto Inu Yasha's back with Shippo cradled between them.
They were all surprised with what they saw when they arrived.
~*~END CHAPTER~*~
Sara: All right, I gots some things to say to y'all. One: I meant to have this out Thursday, but I was sick, and then on Friday my stupid brother made me play video games with him. Sorry for the wait. Two: Inu Yasha won't eat any ramen until Rikora updates her fanfic 'The Inuyasha Cast's One Week In Hell.'
Inu: Wo, wo, WO! * puts hands in front of him as if repelling something * Excuse me, but I don't think so.
Sara: I do, and that's all that matters. * sticks out tongue *
Inu: I think not, Sara! *tackles me to ground, pinning me * ha! * realizes position and blushes *
