Mattou Yakusoku

Fulfilled Promise

Chapter Eight

"Kagome? Sango?" Inuyasha walked into the castle and shut the front door.

"In here Inuyasha." Inuyasha walked down the hall and opened a door on the right. "Can you bring me that drink on the table please?" Inuyasha picked up the glass and walked over to Kagome and Sango.

"How is she doing?" Kagome took the glass and gave Sango a sip.

"She is better now. You know whats funny? I thought i might be the one in the bed with people nursing me. Turns out that i was wrong." Kagome patted Sango's head with a cool rag.

"HEY!" Inuyasha got up and ran into a room down the hall. He came back holding a sword similar to Tenseiga. "Sesshomaru left Tenseiga here, so then how could he save Sango?" Inuyasha drew the mysterious sword. As the tip was released from the sheath a note fell out. Carefully Inuyasha picked it up and began to read.

Dear Little Brother,

If you are reading this then you think i am dead. Although i am not, and as you have guessed this is not Tenseiga. The real Tenseiga is doing something to me that i need help with. Although this is not Tenseiga it has the same effects. This sword can save human life, but only one life. Rin, rin is the only human this sword can save. Please forgive me for worrying you about my death. Take care of Rin for me until i return.

Sesshomaru

"Inuyasha, your brother, he threw away all his training, to save me. His training will be over in 2 years." Sango let out a sigh before falling back to sleep.

"She's been like that for a while. Waking up to say one thing then falling back asleep. I wish she would just sleep, she doesnt need anymore strain on her body." Kagome gently shut her eyes as a single tear sulked its way down her cheek. "Even though she was brought back to life, her strength was not recovered. She can easily die if she doesnt take it easy."

"I know Kagome, im sure she knows too." Inuyasha put an arm around Kagome's shoulders trying to comfort her pain.

"Uh, hey Inuyasha? Wheres Miroku?" Kagome stood up quickly and walked over to the closet, pretending to put clothes on hangers but what she was really doing was hiding a blush.

"Honestly? I dont know. He said he wanted to collect some herbs but he should've been back by now." Sango stirred a little at the sound of their voices. Trying wiggle her way out of unconsiousness. "Come on, lets talk outside so she stays asleep."

"Uh ok, remind me to get some fabric later ok? I want to make some new clothes if im going to be staying in the feudal era." Kagome walked ahead of Inuyasha out of the room.

"Look at you, not even alive again one day and you already planning things." He quietly shut the door and they began to walk down the hall. "This is our room."

"What?! OUR room?" A deep blush crept its way over her soft face. "Inuyasha, when i left you had just professed your love for me. You may have had time to adjust to those feelings but i havent. I atleast need a seperate bed. Not permanently, but just for now."

"Oh, well yea i mean its only fair that you get time to adjust too. Feh, women they just cant accept things peacfully. Its got to be one thing or another." Inuyasha opened the door and Kagome brushed by him. She was obvioulsly not pleased. She walked over to the bed and grabbed a pillow. "Where are you going?"

"I'm staying with Sango tonight. Hmm, I wonder if it still works. I think i might just have to see......Sit boy!" Inuyasha clenched his fists and closed his eyes. Waiting for impact. 'Maybe it dont work.' A frown made it's way to Kagome's face.

SLAM

"Rusty but it still works." Kagome shut the door to the room and paced her way back to Sango. She didnt want to leave her alone for very long, just incase something happened. It didnt take her long to reach the room. Her hand made it's way to the handle before something else caught her ear."Movement? Inside? She better not be moving!' "Sango if your not in bed by the- - -AHHHHHH! INUYASHA!"
