Chapter 3: The Whole Story

"You thought she was dead, eh??" Sango asked. She was very angry; you could tell by her red face and very fierce look. "Is this yet ANOTHER fiance, Miroku? Or just a friend from the past?"

Silence. Miroku and Inuyasha were suddenly silent, and kind of scared of Sango's wrath. Kakiya was the first to speak. "I shall explain later tonight...Miroku and I have some catching up to do."

...................................................................................................................................................

Later that night, around a small campfire, Miroku and Kakiya sat across from each other, while Inuyasha sat near Kakiya, and Sango, who was now somewhat calmed down, sat next to Miroku. Kirara, Sango's size-changing cat demon, sat in her lap. Shippo was sitting on Kakiya's shoulder eating some crackers that he saved up from Kagome's trips to her time. He had gotten over Kagome's leaving the group, and had really started to warm up to Kakiya as Kagome's replacement. Kagome wasn't worth it if she did that to Inuyasha, Miroku, Sango, and I, thought the young fox demon. She was kind of a jerk anyways, now that I look at it.

"I think it's about time," said Miroku. Inuyasha, who had been eating a small fruit, suddenly looked up at Kakiya and waited for her to start telling them how she knew Miroku. Sango looked angrily at her, and Shippo was still eating his few crackers. "Go on," continued Miroku.

"OK. It all begins recently after Miroku's father's death, about 17 years ago. Mother was walking through a small woods when a wolf demon saw her..." she started...but Inuyasha interrupted her.

"I'll bet it was Kouga, wasn't it?"

"Nope...Koga's father." Kakiya went on as if Inuyasha had never interrupted her. She really didn't mind it, actually. "They fell in love, but Father never knew about Mother's side of the family. She had a 4 year old son, who happened to be Miroku."

Sango's expression suddenly went from anger to surprise. "You're related to him?!?"

"He's my half brother...but so is Koga," Kakiya stated. "But, not long after that, they mated...I was the result. But right before I was born, a large demon sent by the demon Naraku to kill my father who he didn't like at all. It killed my father, who tried as hard as he could to protect my mother. She got away, but was overcome by grief at the loss. A few moments later, I was born."

"I heard that just by being born, Mother's joy and Kakiya's pure aura killed off the demon," Miroku added, "but mother was fatally wounded. She died about a month later, and Kakiya and I were sent to our uncle's house to live. But about 4 years ago, another demon destroyed that village. Kakiya and I escaped, but we got separated in the dense forest surrounding our village. I thought Kakiya was dead, and I had failed Mother by not taking care of her, so I went and become a monk. I still don't know what happened, but now I know she's alive, at least."

"You're about to find out, Miroku. I was found by Koga and his wolf tribe. Koga knew I was his half sister, and so he took me to his den and nursed my wounds. He told me about my true past, as my family kept my true identity hidden from me. I didn't believe him at first, until he removed a spell scroll from my back that made my real ears look like human ears. Then I believed him. He taught me all I know about my powers, and then he told me that I am a natural born 'Defender of the Innocent'. I usually don't fight unless I have to, though; I usually negotiate peace."

Inuyasha was now looking as if he had just seen an amazing magic trick of a magician; he was surprised, in other words. Shippo was done eating his crackers. He had heard rumors about Kakiya and her Rainbow Demoness qualities, but he never knew she was realated to Miroku, the Lecher. "Then how come you don't exactly act like Miroku?" were the first words to escape his mouth.

Everyone but Kakiya didn't understand what he was asking, and wore a look of confusion. "He inherits the lecherousy from his father, and the kazana {hell hole} from his father." Now they understood what he was saying, but they were still amazed at what they had heard. Sango later appologized to Miroku and Kakiya for her behavior, and all was well.
