Chappy 20: The Lecherous Monk Awakens. . .
~Last time~
"But what I would like to know," she said as hardness crept into her voice, "is how he even came into such a condition."
~This time~
Kagome, knowing a certain hanyou's hot temper, decided to jump in before this formidable woman decided to provoke him. "Perhaps I should start from the beginning. You see, when I was fifteen, I fell down a dry well in my family's shrine while looking for my cat, Buyo. . ."
~*~*~*ya,ya, u know the drill~*~*~*
While the Kenshin people were digesting the information, Kagome and the others were wondering whether these people would think they were crazy. Megumi was looking at the schoolgirl rather strangely, but broke contact when Kenshin piped up.
"Well, that makes everything make more sense. Besides, I've seen stranger."
"But they still haven't answered my question, Sir Ken." She turned to them again, her glare fastened on the strange group of travelers. "What happened to that man? No one else was injured, so it couldn't possibly have been a demon, and he couldn't have hurt himself when the rider came because you said he landed on top of you ladies." At this, Sango blushed, just barely noticeably, and looked away slightly, all the while hoping the lady doctor wouldn't see.
Her rant was cut off when another presence entered the room. Megumi's hands were taken up in a beseeching gesture. "Please, my lady, doesn't blame them for what happened to me, for I am but a humble monk, a servant of Buddha, and accept anything that comes to me in stride. Besides, if I had not been injured, I would never have met a vision of loveliness such as yourself." He accompanied this with a small kiss to her hand. "Now, will you do me the honor of knowing your name, or would you have me guessing the rest of my days only to die unfulfilled of my desire?"
Megumi blushed. She had never before met such a kind man. Well, except for Sir Ken of course, but he was already taken. . . "My name is Megumi Takani." She bowed. "A doctor."
"Ah, such a beautiful name, for an even more beautiful lady. You honor me. My name is Miroku, a traveling monk serving Buddha's will." His eyes caught hers and the two were silent.
Throughout this exchange, all others were silent. Kagome and Sango didn't want to break up the moment and have the doctor turn on them again, although it was rather difficult to resist the urge of hitting him upside the head for being even a tiny little bit perverted. Kirara, like any cat demon or otherwise, was relaxing outside. Kagome had slipped a couple sleeping pills into a bag of candy for Shippou because he wouldn't shut up and that had been driving everyone crazy. Inu just rolled his eyes, but didn't do anything else. He didn't want the monk to be perverted, but he didn't want to be the cause of his death.
Kori, who was right beside the hanyou, almost touching, had only one thought: 'Ah, young love,' and then began to wonder who she was referring to.
The remaining demons had only one thought on their minds: 'As long as it wasn't her.'
"Hey," said Kaoru, breaking the silence, "I have an idea! Why don't you all stay here while your friend heals up? It would be too dangerous to travel until your friend here is all healed up. And besides, Megumi's over here so much anyways she can look in on him every day."
"What an excellent idea, Kaoru," said Kenshin.
Kagome looked over at the rest of the people in her group. Seeing as there were no apparent arguments, she nodded. "Thank you very much for the offer. We accept."
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
AN: Hey, everyone! I know I said this chapter would be longer and have funniness and all but. . . I completely forgot about this fic! That is, until a guy in my history class started talking about getting the YYH manga. So I decided to keep you all from killing me and give you a chapter. Hope you liked it! And I PROMISE next chapter will have the funny stuff.
