Inuyasha and Miroku began walking back to camp. Miroku was limping,
slightly, and leaning against Inuyasha. He was sore, very sore.
It was a long walk balk to camp, and Inuyasha didn't feel like walking in silence. And besides, he really owed Miroku an explanation of demon mating.
"Miroku, do you know what my bite means, what it will do to you?" He asked, picking Miroku up, bridal style, and carrying him.
"I guess I'm about to learn. Tell me, my Inuyasha, what will your bite do to me?" He asked, slightly cuddling into Inuyasha's shoulder.
"When a demon, or a half demon, chooses a mate, they are basically saying that they have found their life partner. It's kinda like when humans get married. Only, once the mate dies, the Hanyou, or demon, is usually so full of sorrow and remorse that they can't bear to live on. It's really a special, beautiful bond of love.
"My father never bit Sesshoumaru's mother. He did bite my mother, he loved her, but he died before the transformation could take affect, and the bite canceled itself. When a bite is inflicted on a human, it alters their blood. You'll become a Hanyou. So you won't die and ultimately leave me alone. It's like a form of protection. Humans tend to kill other humans who take a demon or half demon for a mate. So my blood is now inside your blood. I dunno how it does it, but within a few days, or weeks, I'm not sure how long it takes exactly, you will become a half dog demon."
Miroku looked at Inuyasha, stunned at that. He would become a Hanyou? He would be almost immortal and as agile as his lover? He shuddered a bit. Would he still be the same Miroku he had always been?
"Miroku, later, when you have become a Hanyou, you will be able to bite me as well, then we can bond ourselves to each other. Then, it will be totally different. Neither of us would be able to die, or age. We'd be like this forever, until we both decide to no longer live. We will live our whole lives together.
"Can you walk? We're almost there. Or do you still want me to carry you. It doesn't matter to me, Miroku." Inuyasha said, stopping and looking down at the man cuddled into his chest.
"Mmmm. I think I can walk now, Inuyasha." Miroku said, as Inuyasha put him down. He kissed Inuyasha before starting to walk to the camp.
Inuyasha smirked at Miroku's limp and jumped ahead of him, as to get to camp first.
When Inuyasha came into the clearing, Kagome jumped up and ran to him.
"Inuyasha! You were gone so long I was starting to wonder when you would come back. I was worried that you had run off or something. You know? Where did Miroku go?"
Inuyasha wanted to push the girl off of him, but decided to act, for the most part, normal.
"I dunno where he is. I'm not his babysitter." Inuyasha inwardly flinched at the comment, but showed nothing on the outside.
Kagome sighed as she wrapped her arms around Inuyasha. He wanted to throw up. Only Miroku was aloud to touch him like she was.
He shoved her off of him, and she lost her footing, causing her to fall on her butt.
"What was that for?!" She screamed at him.
He glanced down at her and said, "You smell funny. Are you wearing that 'perfmume' shit again?"
"I was worried about you and all you can say is that?! You jerk! What is your problem?"
"You're my problem! You hang all over me and strut around trying to get me all flustered, the yell at me when I go off to be alone for a while! You flirt with every guy we see. You're a little slut!" he yelled at her.
"WHAT DID YOU JUST CALL ME?!" she screamed back at him, tears starting to fall from her cheeks.
"Let me spell it out for ya. S-L-U-T. Slut."
"SIT!! SITSITSITSITSITSITSITSITSITSITSTISITSIT!!!!" Kagome screamed at him, just as Miroku walked into the clearing.
All he saw was a fuming Kagome and a half buried Inuyasha.
"Inuyasha!!" He ran to the indent where Inuyasha lay, coughing. He was obviously hurt, for he wasn't retaliating. Miroku carefully pulled the Hanyou out of the hole and leaned him against a tree.
"Kagome, what did Inuyasha do to earn so bad a sit?"
"That jerk called me a SLUT!" Kagome yelled, pointing at Inuyasha.
Miroku looked at Inuyasha and smirked. He called Kagome a slut. Well, with the short skirt she wore, Miroku often thought on similar lines. The women of these times would never even think of showing that much leg. And Kagome did it every day, even going so far as to flaunt it off when she thought Inuyasha was looking her way.
"Well, you sure have sat him enough for this time. I think he has been punished enough." He turned to Sango. "Good evening, Sango. How was your night?"
Kagome sighed. Miroku sure had a one track mind. She tried to calm herself by thinking of the rest of the day. Well, they had found a Shikon Jewel fragment today, the battle wasn't all that difficult, Inuyasha defeated the demon easily. Poor little Shippo had spraned his wrist digging earlier. Kagome didn't know why the Kitsune was digging, but she did know how to lessen the pain of a sprained wrist. Miroku had acted strange today. She had noticed how he seemed too have trouble walking this evening. He was wincing when he sat down and standing up, and he kept looking Inuyasha over.
It was strange. Seeing Miroku act this way. What was he and Inuyasha planning? They had obviously collaborated some scheme for... something.
Miroku looked over at Kagome and thought about how she would be hurt when she found out about him and Inuyasha. He knew she loved him so very much, it was obvious every time she looked at him.
He sighed. Poor Kagome. Well, at least Inuyasha won't have to deal with the whole "slavery" issue.
