Chapter One:
When the World Turned Broadside
I didn't know what to say when the black haired lady through herself onto Miroku, crying into him like a dear friend. I didn't know what to say when Kagome and Inu Yasha came running around and Kagome ran over to see what the problem was. Inu Yasha, being his normal self, stayed to the side, arms crossed muttering things. I felt like I was watching a flashback of something that happened in the past, and I couldn't do anything. I couldn't move, interact or anything. My feet were frozen, my eyes unable to blink. The only moving thing was probably my heart that went bump, bump lightly inside my chest. But everything else… was so… stuck.
And that's when I saw it. The snicker on the girl's face, the happy yet devilish grin she seemed to give off between those fake tears. Miroku being Miroku did nothing beside consult her. I wouldn't have been surprised to see his hand trail further down to her butt, the bakka he can be at times. But he didn't do that, he just rubbed her back. Was I jealous? No… Not really. I didn't love Miroku and if he loves her then so be it. But he has known me longer, so I doubt he'd ever just give up trying to have me as his wife, or even bear his children. I always figured he'd marry the girl that would bear his children, he didn't seem the type to just leave them. He didn't seem the type to just stand up and walk out on them and take the baby. It wouldn't make sense, would it? He's much too nice… isn't he? I have no faith in him like I should, but it is hard to be faithful and respectful to a man that gropes you.
Finally the girl stopped crying, but like all people looked fatigued, so Miroku set her on the couch. I was thankful I had moved when the door was knocked upon or Miroku would have more problems. After Miroku took her hands off his waists and was beginning to stand she grabbed his kimono! How dare she touch what is rightfully not hers? How dare she come here when she does not live here and invite her self in? And to top it off, how dare she through herself at Miroku like that!? I should not lose my anger, but I cannot help it. She annoys me and I don't even know her. Kagome seemed to like her though, but Kagome is different then I. Kagome 'seems' to like all girls but rather detests Inu Yasha, but I believe she shows it wrong, and really likes Inu Yasha and detests most the girls we meet. How she could even pretend to like this wench, I do not know. I envy her for her courage and patience. I am surprised, though, that this woman would just come to our door out of all the houses, and then through herself on Miroku! It makes no sense, does it? I voiced my question, thankful for my voice returning.
"Miss," I had to be polite, of course, "Why have you come here and thrown yourself on Miroku?"
I think I contained my anger well, and that's when her answer came and I thought I would erupt.
"Miss, I do not think it is of your business!" She said this all very rudely with a snide look on her face that Miroku seemed to miss. He is such a dense bakka at times! I wanted to slap her, but I couldn't. Miroku would be angered if I did, Inu Yasha would yell at me, Kagome would be ashamed, and I would be embarrassed and probably shunned from the house until I would be nicer to her. So I will keep all my bad thoughts to myself, she doesn't even deserve them. They're too good for her. That's when Kagome spoke up. Good old Kagome-Chan.
"Who are you?" She asked, cocking her head sideways. The girl decided to be nice to Kagome and smiled happily up at her.
"Why, I am Chika." She replied as though it meant everything, that it was the most high and powerful name. Hah!
"That means near, ne?" Her eyes darted at me.
"Hai…" she said, looking me up and down. Miroku seemed to be completely lost. In her face that is. Chika spoke again.
"I didn't catch your name..." I was jumping with anger in my head, but I hopefully shown none.
"Sango" I replied.
"Means coral, ne?" She replied, awfully fast. I nodded in a bow kind of form and she smiled. Then began to ask the others their names and gave them their definitions. It was all quite pathetic but I spoke not a word of my thoughts. Then she began to cuddle around Miroku, which was not to my liking but again I said nothing. What could I say or do? It would be rude to attempt to anything, and if she likes Miroku I will not stop their love. I stood and bowed.
"Sayounara" And left the hut, leaving a stunned Kagome, a drooling Miroku, and a not caring Inu Yasha. I wondered where Kouga was, but then again it was fairly early and he had night watch so I would figure he is asleep. I wasn't paying attention to where I was walking and I walked into a person. I apologized, bowing profusely. I looked up to find myself looking into gray happy pools. I noticed the figure to be a girl in a light green Kimono, with long black hair. She had several loose bangs and her ponytail was held up high. She looked like Chika only nicer. She seemed like a happy and nice Chika.
"It's alright, miss. I am just waiting for my sister to come out of that house." Her head nudged past the green fresh grass to my hut. I looked back at her and finally understood that they were sisters. You could almost tell. Was this girl as much of a wench as the other? Why is she out here and her sister in there? Why is her sister crying and not her? What's going on here?
"You're her sister?"
"Yes! I am Sachiko!"
"Why... are you both here?"…
