Recap of last chapter.

"It's …K-Kohaku….he's here!" she said while using Inuyasha's strong form to keep her stance.

Inuyasha looked concerned, he couldn't see Kohaku, and he knew that Naraku wouldn't let him free so easily, it was then that he smelled it ….Kagura, the wind sorceress, he thought that maybe she and Kohaku were together in the village, "c'mon Sango, we gotta get in there, its Kagura, she might have Kohaku" they went into the village.

Chapter: 5 Gains and Losses

Koga and Kagome reached the others, "Kagome!" yelled Shippo, who jumped into her arms, "where is Inuyasha?" she asked immediately, "They went to sango's village, to save Kohaku"

"Koga take me there" she said but Shippo grabbed her sleeve "no kagome, Inuyasha uh…they can handle it, stay with me im scared." She nodded and koga decided to stay to help protect them just incase, it wasn't like him to do that, but he just did.

"Kagura show your self wench!" Inuyasha screamed, he felt determined to get Kohaku, once and for all. All of the sudden there was a gust of wind, and Kagura appeared

"so Inuyasha, come to kill me off huh?" she said in a normal tone, she wasn't the type to jump into things, she liked to play around a bit, that was one thing Naraku didn't have control over.

She stepped closer, and looked Inuyasha in the eye, then glanced over to sango "Where is Kohaku?!" sango exclaimed, Inuyasha was taken back at the tone in her voice, it was icy and dead, "now now slayer, he is here, and he is just fine, aren't you Kohaku?" The young boy stepped out from behind the wind sorceress, "K-Kohaku…" sango stuttered, her brother wouldn't look her in the eye, all he said was "its you, the woman I cant forget" he said it in a slight whisper, but Inuyasha heard it, he knew Kohaku wasn't bad, and that he wanted to be with sango, Inuyasha had the urge to slice kagura's head off, "you bastard!" he yelled as he jumped into the air and slashed at kagura's waist, she winced in pain and held her stomach, which was bleeding, back at naraku's castle he could feel the pain and sent his poison insects out to get Kagura.

The insects reached her, and called her back, she jumped on her feather and ordered Kohaku to come with her, but he was frozen he didn't move, he didn't want to move

She was in to much pain to argue with him, so she decided to come back for him, with that last thought she was off.

"Kohaku, lets get out of here while you still can!" Inuyasha said Bust Kohaku didn't budge, "He cant move, the poison insects, they…stung him" sango whispered as tears formed in her eyes, "well then lets just grab him and go" Inuyasha then ran to Kohaku, but was sent flying back when a light blue shield formed in front of the boy, "shit….she put up a barrier, god damnit Kagura" Inuyasha said while sango helped him to stand, he looked at her and said "don't worry sango, we will get your brother back to you, hell if I have to die trying I will, only because I care so much" sango couldn't believe what he said, his words were kind, and caring, she never heard him say something so nice, and thoughtful. That made the tears flow freely, inuyasha wrapped his arms around her, and let her cry, Kohaku watched, he felt so sad, he couldn't do anything about it, and even if they could break the barrier, they still couldn't get him away.

Miroku watched with hurt in his eyes, as Inuyasha stroked sango's head, he had always wished it were him to comfort her in the way Inuyasha was doing, 'maybe if I didn't touch her ass so much' he scolded himself. Then a thought hit him, he walked up to the barrier as much as he could, without getting hurt, he sat down and held out a white scroll with markings on it, he mumbled something and threw the scroll at the blue shield, the first layer was devoured in a yellowish light, now all he had to do was work on the rest, "don't worry Kohaku, we are going to get you out" the monk told him, the Taijiya couldn't help but smile, at least they were trying.

Back with kagome and Shippo

"Koga…what do you think is happening down there?" kagome asked, Shippo was on her shoulder, and kirara rest in her lap.

"I don't know he said, but im sure mutt face and the exterminator can handle it, that monk too" koga said while turning to face kagome, they just sat there, kagome couldn't take it anymore, she had a feeling that something was going on, she ran away from the others until she came to where Inuyasha and sango were, she couldn't believe it, He was embracing her, with a smile, "I don't believe this!!" she shouted

Inuyasha was surprised to hear kagome's voice, Shippo, koga and kirara were behind her, Kirara saw her mistress who was locked in the Hanyou's arms, then looked a little further and saw Kohaku, she and Shippo ran to Miroku, who was still sitting down but now facing kagome, she had startled his prayer, "Inuyasha I…How…Sango…but. I…SIT!" she stammered, she was hurt confused and angry. Inuyasha came crashing to the ground

"Damn it all…Kagome, what the hell did you do that for?!" he yelled as he stood up, luckily for sango only he was brought down, Inuyasha looked to sango, her face was shocked, she didn't know what to say, "sango, something wrong?" Inuyasha asked seeing the look she had. "What!? All you can say is something wrong to sango? What about me Inuyasha ?!" kagome yelled, by this time Sango was fuming."HEY! Kagome, you had no right to sit Inuyasha! He didn't do anything wrong! And for your information we were on our way to get you! And this is how you treat us, im sorry kagome, but not everything revolves around you!" sango yelled back, she didn't mean to sound so harsh, but someone had to say it, Inuyasha smiled inwardly then whispered to sango "way to go tell her off ha-ha"

Sango, didn't know what came over her, was it Kohaku? Or was she really angry with kagome, for breaking the two's embrace.

"UGH SIT SIT SIT SIIIIIIITT!" Kagome yelled Inuyasha met his enemy once more, the gross ground, after the last sit kagome delivered Sango picked inuyasha up who was now in a lot of pain and stormed over to Kagome" Damn it kagome! If you don't remember you are the one that let koga take you, you could have fought him! But no! you wanted to go with him isn't that right?!, you nosy little bitch, why don't you go home to your own time kagome and stay there! We don't need you anymore, ya know I always backed you up, there were times when people said how annoying you are, and I said to leave you alone, but you know what? Now there is only one thing we need you for…finding the jewel shards, and your not even good at that, you think your all high and mighty just because you are the reincarnation of the beautiful priestess Kikyo, but you got another thing coming!, " by the time sango finished she was out of breath and Inuyasha was satisfied, the only ones who were sad was the rest of them, they were hurt at how kagome's former best friend reacted, but hey, kagome was too rash in the first place, she had no right to jump to conclusions like that.

Kagome's eyes watered up, and she opened her mouth to say something but sango cut her off " here kagome I'll finish your sentence ….IM GOING HOME!" sango said, then started again" there's no need for you to say anything, now be on your way" Kagome let tears freefall from her chocolate eyes, as she ran away, she didn't know where she was going, she just ran.

"Sango…how…where, did you come up with all of that?" Miroku said

"I didn't have to come up with it, it's been there for a while" sango said while walking over to Inuyasha, "are you alright?"

"Yeah, im ok, Hey sango, that was some wicked mean stuff you said back there" Inuyasha said while straightening his posture, "yeah I know, I didn't want to sound so mean, but she started it Heh'"

Sango walked over to Kohaku, and looked at Miroku, "can you finish now? I would like to hold my brother and get him outta here before Naraku shows up" Miroku nodded and began on the barrier again.

Shippo looked at koga and asked him "what do you think made sango so angry?, sango's pretty mean,…hey koga, could you follow kagome's scent? I don't want her to go home, I will miss her" koga looked at the young kitsune and nodded, he then picked Shippo up and went after kagome,

By that time Miroku was done with the barrier, and Sango was just staring at Kohaku, "d-do you know who I am? K-Kohaku?" Kohaku nodded, "yes I do know who you are, I see you in my dreams all the time…but I don't know your name…" Kohaku said while looking straight into sango's eyes,

Sango felt hurt, her own brother, flesh and blood, didn't know her name, but it didn't matter all that did matter was that she had Kohaku in her arms, and she was the happiest she's ever been. "Kohaku, I am your older sister…my name is Sango, I will protect you, you will never have to go back to Naraku, I promise" Kohaku nodded and then hugged Sango "s-sango….my…Ane" Sango smiled when he said that, it made her all warm inside , it made her feel…complete.

"Sango, Im glad we got your brother back, now lets get out of here, we can go back to kaede's and she can help heal Kohaku" Inuyasha said while looking to Miroku who nodded in agreement.

"Are you sure we could go back to kaede's? I mean what if kagome is there?" sango said while releasing her grip from Kohaku.

"Well, we will figure that out when we get there, we should just focus on getting Kohaku away from here." Inuyasha said while kneeling down to pick up Kohaku, it was difficult at first because of the sit attack he had received from kagome, and because the poison in kohaku's body, made his legs stiff, and hard to pick up. "Kohaku, are you in any pain?" Miroku asked, while walking towards him "no, not really, its just I keep getting these headaches, and they only come on when I think about you" he said while pointing to Sango, 'he must be remembering' she thought.

After inuyasha got Kohaku off the ground, and onto Kirara's back, making sure he was on securely, he then told Miroku to take Kohaku to kaede, he will be taking sango. A bad thought flashed through Kohaku's mind, he had begun to remember that night…when he slaughtered his family, he winced in pain and held his head, "you better hurry Miroku, and be careful" inuyasha said Miroku and the boy then flew off on kirara.

"Inuyasha…..I…well….thank you" sango said then wrapped her arms around Inuyasha's waist and hugging him tightly, her face tinted a pale rose color, as she held onto his body.

"uh sure sango, no problem" Inuyasha said while returning the embrace, he felt his face get warm, and he had a sudden urge to place his lips onto sango's creamy ones.

but he shook the thought away and held onto her, he then let go and said,"sango, I promised you we would get him back, and we did, im glad your happy, now lets go" then he lifter her onto his back and they went after Miroku.

"Hey Inuyasha? Why did you insist on carrying me? I mean I could have gone with kirara, with…my brother, man it feels good to say that" she said with a smile.,

"Yeah, and I don't really know why I wanted to carry you, I…uh didn't want that Miroku to touch you, ya know" He said with a nervous tone.

"Uh huh " sango said, a smile crept up to her lips and had an idea, she slowly laid her head onto Inuyasha's shoulder, he felt her hot breath against his neck, it make him shiver, and sango knew it she laughed a bit then said "Inuyasha…do you think it was wrong of me to yell at kagome like that?"

"Hmmn? Oh…nah I don't think it was wrong, someone had to tell her, I mean she didn't have to just assume things, we weren't doing anything ya know?" he said while taking in her lovely scent.

"Ok but…do you think….never mind" Sango said while snuggling closer, Inuyasha was about to ask her to go on, when he tripped over a tree stump, "Oof" he said while landing on the hard ground.

He coughed a bit, from the dust that was kicked up when he landed, and opened his eyes to see sango, she landed right on top of him, they both blushed furiously, and Inuyasha said "uh, hey sango ya know what?"

She gave him a puzzled look, " your not as heavy as I thought, you're a hell of a lot lighter than kagome that's for sure" he said while laughing.

"Um Sango…" Inuyasha said, Sango looked like she was in a daze, "oh. Hmmn?" she said Inuyasha looked off to the side "oh im so sorry Inuyasha " She said while getting off him and helping him up, "uh actually its ok," he couldn't believe he just said that 'what the hell am I thinking?!' he thought "Ok lets get to kaede's so I can see Kohaku" sango said while walking beside inuyasha, The hanyou had a weird idea, he swooped Sango up and into his arms threshold style and took of with lightning speed. "Inuyashaaaaaaa" sango yelled playfully, within minute they were at kaede's village, and Miroku and Kohaku arrived a few seconds later.
