Jasna-chan Turning the Tables Chapter 4: A Way With Words

A/N: *skips around* You're still here! *hugs* Well, hope you like this chapter, took awhile to think up.

Disclaimer: Inuyasha is not mine, nor are any of the other characters here. They all belong to the incredible Takahashi-san. Though the voice in Sango and Miroku's minds IS mine. ^_^

Key:

'*This is the mysterious voice in Sango's and Miroku's head*' 'This is someone thinking' (This is me talking)

____________________________________________________________________

"IS THAT HOW YOU REALIZED WE SWITCHED?!!!" Sango was just about to flatten his face when THE voice abruptly came back. '*I see you two are acting as normal as ever.*'

"Eh?" Both of their heads popped up.

'*So, how are you two so far?*' "The hell that's all you're saying to us after what happened?!" Miroku's fists clenched.

"Yeah now my friends think of ME as the lecher of the group!" Sango growled.

"Hey, now, what's wrong with that?" Miroku added slyly. Sango slapped him on the arm. '*Calm it down you two, I was just trying to lighten things up a bit.*' A sigh came out of the voice. '*Well, anyways, I bet you two are wondering WHY you switched with the other.*' The couple nodded in unison. Knowing they got the message, the voice went on. '*I will explain. As you both know, dark energy is known to just make you go crazy and insane. Nothing more. Well, when you, monk, were trying to protect yourself and the young mistress here, remember you were spinning your staff so that you could re-direct the dark energy away? That sorta.putting into lighter terms.messed it up a bit. After doing so, some of the 'messed-up' energy ricocheted into each of your heads, knocking both of you unconscious at the same time, thus, the effects of the dark energy screwed up and switched both of your minds into the other's body.*'

"O0O0oo." they both said at the same time.

'*Exactly. Now remember, you mustn't let any other being know of this, or even myself. I cannot explain why, though. If anyone does, however, you both will suffer greatly, whether indirectly or directly, and whether physically or emotionally. This is your final warning. *'

"But exactly WHAT would happen if someone DID find out?" Sango pondered.

'*I will only give you a sneak peak of it. How's that sound?*' But before they could respond, a flash blinded the two. They both gasped.

(Scene: )

Sango's hand started pulsing. "Wha, what's happening?" She stared down at it, prayer beads rattling, then suddenly, fell off. Fear and shock wrote all over her face as the kazaana started to widen. And widen. And widen. "Miroku!!" She yelled as the ground below her was sucked in, and then, herself. Miroku couldn't believe what he was seeing. "No! No Sango you cannot leave me!!"

.a huge crater was embedded in the earth.

(End Scene)

Both trembled in horror. They stared deeply into the abyss of their eyes. Terror and anxiousness was easily seen through the two.

"Miroku!"

"Sango!"

They both embraced each other tightly, not even dreaming of letting go. His kimono dampening from her tears, Miroku suddenly realized something. "Hey, you called me Miroku."

Sango sniffled. "O, go-" sniffle, "gomen ne, Houshi-sama. I didn't realize- "

"No, no, I like it better." He smiled weakly at her, and they cuddled closer. Then a thought struck both of their minds. 'I have to confess.before its too late.' But the voice interrupted their thoughts.

'*Remember, that was only PART of what would happen if. you know. Anyways,, that's all for now.*'

Miroku protested. "But wait, you never told us how to cure this abnormal curse that has plagued us!" '*I already gave you all the information you need. Think back.*' "But-!" The voice was gone.

"What did it mean, 'think back,' Miroku?"

The monk tried to sort out all the information. "Hmm.I'm thinking it was referring to that odd message we received right before we got knocked out."

"O, you mean the 'the only way is to become one' crap?"

"Hai, I'm pretty sure. There's nothing else I could think of that he might be referring to. what could he have meant when he said that? How the hell are we supposed to become 'one' when we're two different people?!" Both of them were stumped and bemused.

Sango yawned. "Can we talk about this in the morning?" She leaned on his shoulder, slowly closing her eyes.

"But, we have to figure this out Sango, as quickly as possible. You never know what the others might be think-" He suddenly heard a deep breathing pattern, in and out. He turned to Sango. 'O.she's asleep. Well, it HAS been a long day, hasn't it? He smiled. Even in my body, she still seems to. mesmerize me in how peaceful she is. well, when she's asleep.' He chuckled at the thought, slowly positioning himself more comfortably so as not to arouse the young girl with him, and gradually, relaxed into a deep sleep.

"Wha, What were you gonna say, *Sango?" Inuyasha asked.

"Uh.." Miroku was speechless. He scratched his head in confusion.

"Um, we have to talk, see you guys later!" Sango grabbed Miroku's hand and pulled them out of the awkward scene.

"What has gotten into those two?!" Kagome still could not believe what she just saw.

"Keh, maybe the dark energy screwed up their heads and now they're acting like each other?" Inuyasha smirked.

"Inuyasha, how can you joke about such a thing at a time like this?!"

"You know, the baka may actually be right." Kaede wondered.

"NANI?!" They emphasized in unison.

"Just a thought.well I'm tired, think I'll go take a nap." And with that, Kaede just, left.

"How can she just say that out of the blue after all this has happened." Kagome questioned.

"Don't worry about it, she's just weird like that." Inuyasha rolled his eyes and sat down in his usual position, legs crossed and arms enveloped in his sleeves.

"Inuyasha." Kagome sat beside him, rubbing her fingers on one of his ears.

Inuyasha started to lean into her touch. 'Kagome.' "Huh."

She didn't notice it, so she just laid her hand back to her lap. "You think we should go after those two? I mean, what if they do something stupid?"

"Feh, don't worry about it. They'll live, I assure you." He laid his hand over hers and patted it gently, not really realizing what he was doing. "You know, it would have been awsome if you had that clicky thing with you at the time..." He snickered at the thought.

"What, you mean my camera?" Kagome nudged Inuyasha'a shoulder and smiled evilly. '*Sango-chan would have probably killed me right there. Ha!'

"Yeah whatever you call it... The best blackmail..." He smiled as a yawn escaped his mouth. "Mmm I can see how Kaede-baba could be sleepy at a time like this."

A little flushed at that small action he did to her, she asked, "O really, how?" But there was no response, for the hanyou had fallen asleep. 'Kawaii!!!' She rubbed his arm. 'One of the rare times you see him so calm and peaceful.' He clearly showed his dependency and trust in her by fully letting his guard down. "Inuyasha." She sighed and just sat there, thinking of how the furyou houshi and taijiya acted so unusually earlier. 'What has gotten into those two. Especially *Sango-chan! Who'da thought *SHE'D 'make the move' to *Miroku-sama instead!' Her eyes widened, and a soft chuckle escaped her lips. 'Kinda comical though, when you think about it.' She smiled. "Heh, maybe some pervertedness rubbed off of *her due to hanging around that *houshi so much she denies it." she mumbled quietly to herself and rested her back on the wall.

A bird landed softly on Sango's forehead, startling her. She slowly rubbed her eyes. "Eh. what time is it." She then realized a warm figure by her side. 'Hey, it's me, er. Miroku heheh. Almost forgot about that.'

Miroku felt something rustling next to him. He leisurely yawned.

Sango smiled. "Ohayo, Miroku." She beamed at him.

"Awake already, I see?" He gradually sat up, gazing at the scenery around them. He sighed. Not thinking beforehand, he cried, "You know, I think we need a bath."

Sango's eyes turned a hue of red in an instant.
