Megumi lay on a branch of a tree. Her leg hung over the side and she dangled her sandal off her big toe. Sango sat below her playing with Kirara who sat on her lap.

"So, is InuYasha going to go back for Kagome?"

"Usually not for a day or two."

"I feel pretty bad."

"Well you should, but then again Inu did not do anything, he allowed you to kiss him. That means that he is to blame to."

"Why are they so emotional about it though? I mean I liked the guy so I kissed him."

"Maybe because you're new to the group. Kagome does not know who you are and you are kissing the man she loves."

"I guess next time I will hold myself back." Megumi said sarcastically.

Sango shrugged. "Now InuYasha has a third girlfriend."

"You mean there is another one? Dear Kami!"

"His first love Kikyo, she died though. But this women brought her back to life so now is walking around half dead."

"Creepy."

"Hey Megumi can you keep a secret?"

"Of course Sango."

"You know that monk inside, Miroku?"

"Yeah."

"I think I am in love with him."

Megumi sat up straight. "Really, awww."

Sango blushed. "You can't tell anyone!"

"I won't. I won't." Megumi lay back down.

"Even though the guy is a pervert, there is something about him that makes me blush."

"Maybe it is when his hand is on your butt!" Megumi laughed.

"No!" Sango laughed.

"Sango can you keep a secret?"

"There is another thing you are keeping from me."

"Yes…I am not here because I need a place to stay."

"Really? Then why are you?"

"My other village wants me to watch InuYasha and keep tabs on him. Just spy on him for a few weeks."

"Are you serious?!"

"That is why I don't like my village. They give me the worse missions. I guess it ended out alright. It gave me a reason to get out of it and do what you guys do."

"I see." Sango petted Kirara's head since she was feeling left out.

Megumi swung her leg back and forth.

InuYasha and Miroku walked up to them.

"There is a demon nearby and the old hag wants us to get rid of him."

Suddenly a stick flew between two trees and hit Inu in the back of the head.

"What in the seven…" He turns around to see Kaede.

"I may be old but I have great hearing, dirty mongrel."

"Feh."

"Anyway, this demon is the demon form of Miroku here." She touched Miroku's arm making him flinch because of her perpetual ugliness. He slowly turned his head to look at her.

"He seduces women, sleeps with them then leaves them that next morning. But after that he kills the whole village. It doesn't make that much sense. He is just a nuisance."

Miroku picked himself off the ground after falling because of Kaede's comment. "I do not do that!"

Everyone laughed.

"Well, maybe not the burning the village part." InuYasha grinned.

Miroku glared at him.

InuYasha ignored him and folded his arms. "Why do we have to deal with them?"

"Because you are nice people who will get rid of this trouble maker."

InuYasha rolled his eyes. "I am sitting this one out. Send Shippo to do it." He sat on a rock and closed his eyes.

Kaede walked behind him and pulled on his ear, pulling him off the rock and dragged him a few feet. "I am sending you because you need to learn compassion."

"How will that teach me compassion?"

"I don't know but you are going anyway."

"Damn You Kaede!"

She smiled to herself.

The others followed InuYasha as he was dragged back to the village.

Kagome sat in her bed. "He is in love with somebody else. He claims he isn't but he kissed that girl." A tear fell onto her leg. "I never should have gone back there." She laid back and stared at her ceiling. "How could he?"

A voice in her head, let's call him Bob, began to talk to her. "You're saying this like he is your boyfriend. He can do whatever he wants, you guys are not married."

"Still, now this makes it harder to get together."

"Did not stop you before, remember Kikyo?" Bob murmured.

"How can I forget her? I guess the thought of her being dead helped me along."

"But you saw InuYasha kiss Kikyo." Bob stated.

"Yeah, but, she is dead. So I knew nothing could happen."

"But he still loves her." Bob reminded her.

"I know he does but I am trying to get him to love me instead."

"But now this new girl has moved in and taken him from you." Bob added matter-of-factly.

"What does she have that I don't have?"

"A sword, a great body." Bob listed.

"Do you think he liked her because of that?"

"Why don't you ask him?" Bob questioned.

"I don't want to speak to him ever again."

"Then I guess you will never know." Bob sighed.

Kagome bit her lip. "I guess so."

Souta stood at the doorway to Kagome's room. His mouth hung open from shock. It was official, his sister was crazy. She was talking to herself. She was having a full conversation with herself.

Kagome did not seem to notice him.
