Chapter Eight

"Inuyasha, did you mean what you said to me in my room, about you will never hurt anyone I care about? "Kagome asked.

"Yeah."

"Do you promise?"

"I promise, I won't hurt anyone you care about, ever." Inuyasha said. Kagome and Inuyasha hovered where Sango and Miroku were sleeping. They began to stir and snapped open their eyes at the same time.

There was an awkward silence and then Sango and Miroku screamed, "How long have you been there?!" Sango screamed.

"Not long, but long enough to see you two cuddling." Inuyasha scoffed.

"Yeah, well we weren't doing anything if that's what you're thinking." Sango glared at Kagome.

"Yeah, yeah, fine, whatever." Kagome said.

"Well, get up, we're going to do stuff today." Inuyasha said.

"What do you have something planned for today?" Sango sat up.

"No, not really, just go around town I guess." Inuyasha shrugged. So they got dress and left the apartment. Inuyasha locked the door when he say a note posted on the door. Inuyasha read the note aloud:

It took me a while to find where you are hiding this time. I've got to hand it to you though, so I'll give you a break. Shippo and Kohaku will be at The Tokyo Café at noon. Although, I've stuck a detector on them. You can take them to public places, and remember I'll be tracking them so don't try anything funny. Have them back be 6:00 at the café and then leave. If you don't leave, you'll never get the chance to see them again. Don't even try to take the detectors off; they won't come off by force, only when I press this little button I have. Enjoy this moment you will have.

"Wow, you think we should go?" Miroku asked and looked at the girls.

"Yes, can we please?" Sango pleaded.

"Ok, it's 11:30, let's stop at the station first and get this note dusted for fingerprints and then we'll go to The Tokyo Café. And he doesn't seem like he knows that we live here with you either," Inuyasha said. They walked 12 blocks through the city to the station and dropped off the note, they were off to The Tokyo Café, "So, how long haven't you seen your cousin?"

"About a year, he's 13 now and Sango's brother is 15."Kagome said.

"You don't seem too happy about seeing him though." Inuyasha looked down beside him of a sad girl's face looking up at him.

"Yeah, well, he's still under Naraku's control."

"But we can have fun with the time we've got, just make the best out of it. We'll catch Naraku, don't worry."

"Yeah, but that picture still bothers me. Did he torture me because I look like his lost lover?" Kagome looked down at the sidewalk. They both blushed when she mentioned the picture.

"Well, don't worry about it." They got to the café and saw 2 young boys sitting at a table. Sango and Kagome ran up to them and hugged them really tight.

"Are you two ok? How has the mean man been treating you?" Sango said in a worried voice.

"We're fine sis, he feeds us, but keeps us locked in a room." Kohaku said after Sango let him go.

"Yeah, we're fine. I've missed you so much, Kagome!" Shippo said.

"Ahem." Inuyasha said behind the girls.

"Oh, Shippo, Kohaku, these are our boyfriends. Inuyasha and Miroku." Kagome pointed to them.

"They're cops; they'll be able to help us, also. Ok?" Sango said.

"Yeah, as long as you like them and not just because they can help you save us." Kohaku said.

"Of course we like them." Kagome smiled at Inuyasha and then back at the boys.

"Well, I guess that answers your earlier question." Miroku said leaning over to Inuyasha, "Well, we're not going to have any fun standing here all day, we've only got 6 hours today. We might as well make the best of it. So let's go!"

"YAY!" The boys ran out of the café and onto the sidewalk.

"So where to?" Sango asked.

"Well, where would kids want to go?" Miroku asked.

"HURRICANE HARBOR!" Shippo yelled.

"Alright fine, let's go to the mall and buy some bathing suits and then go to Hurricane Harbor. "Sango said.

So they walked over to the mall and bought some bathing suits. Inuyasha bought a pair of red swimming trunks, Miroku a dark purple one, Shippo a blue one, and Kohaku a yellow one. Kagome bought a white bikini and Sango bought a pink one. They didn't see each other pick them until they were at the park and had to change.

"Wow, you girls look great" Miroku stared.

"Stop staring you pervert." Sango sighed.

"Let's go on that ride Kagome!" Shippo pointed at Der Stuka, a 72 foot free fall ride.

"Sure, you all up to it?" Kagome looked back at the group.

"Of course we are." Inuyasha said but thought, 'Is this girl crazy? No, she's more of a thrill seeker, I like that in a girl, wait, what am I thinking, she's only my girlfriend, it's not like I'm gonna do something that Miroku would do, even though he hasn't even done it yet, hehe.'

"Ahh!" They all screamed as they fell. After that, they went on the Black Hole, Sea Wolf, Blue Raider, Bubba Tub, Shotgun Falls, Blue Niagara, and Banzai Boggans. After all those rides, they went on the Lazy River to rest. They went to the souvenir shop and bought a whole bunch of stuff, especially candy for Shippo. They changed and it was about to be 6:00 as they walked back to the café.

"Ok, good bye you guys, don't worry, we'll get you out of this mess soon enough, ok? I promise." Kagome said leaving a kiss on Shippo's cheek and Sango left a kiss for Kohaku and said the same thing. They left and the girls looked back at the café.

"Don't worry; we'll get them back safely." Inuyasha said.

"I hope so. I just wish things would get back to the ways they were." Kagome sighed.

"I don't."

"What? Why not? What do you mean?"

"If all of this didn't happen, I would have never met you." Inuyasha smiled as they walked back to the apartment.
