Chapter 2: A Plan Forming
Miroku ran to catch up with Kagome. When he finally caught up to her, she was at a hot spring, crying her eyes out. He walked up to her and without a word, pulled her into a warm embrace. She pushed him away at first, but she finally gave into his warm comfort.
After they had separated, Miroku decided ton see if Kagoe wuold like to join in his plan.
"Kagome," Miroku says, "I have an idea. One that, if done just right, will get your Inuyasha back. Do you want to help me?" Miroku asked with pleading eyes. Kagome replied "What does this plan involve exactly?" Miroku told Kagome of his idea of the both of them getting together to make Inuyasha and Sango jealous.
Kagome then says, with a hint of worry "What if it doesn't work? Or worse? What if Inuyasha gets so jealous, he tries to tear you to shreds?" Miroku replies "Then I will just have to suck the hanyou into my kazanna!" The sight of thi inu hanyou being sucked up into the monk's kazanna made Kagome giggle. She then said "All right , I'm in. Just let me go and get Shippo. I don't want to leave him there with Inuyasha without me there to protect him." So the new "Couple" went to go get the kitsune. On their way to camp they didn't run into either Inuyasha or Sango, luckily. The pair of soon to be "couple" and the small kitsune traveled on, not knowing the great goddess, Aphrodite, was following them, weaving her magic. Aphrodite then says "I hope this works, because I can't make love appear, onlty create the chance for it, the rest is up to the fates." Even gods had no power over the fates and what they wanted to happen.
Meanwhile, Athena was off doing her part of the plan. She was talking to the god of war, Ares. Athena says "Ares, my brother, can you do me a favor?" Ares then replied " I don't know, sister. The last time I granted one of the gods favors, the miko's Inu-Yokai mother, Kurashi, And her wolf-youkai father, Kaiser, died and the great eastern lands fell to a pitiful pack of wolves." Athena absorbs all this info then replies " But, brother, this will put the rightful Queen of the Eastern Lands in power again. So, please grant my wish." Ares finally gives in. Athena then says " Thank you, brother. Here is my wish. I want you to give the miko her power that was stripped by her father so that dhe wouldn't be slaughtered by the wolves when he died. She needs this power so that she can regain the Eastern Lands back. I also need you to make the monk into an Inu-Youkai." " I get why you want me to help with the miko, but what does the monk haveto do with all of this?" Athen then says " In order for the miko to regain her lands and beat Naraku for us, she has to have the Monk as her full-blooded demon mate." Ares opened his mouth to reply but before he could, Athena said " Don't ask me why. It was what the fates wanted and they put it in the Great Prophecy of Kiazous." Ares said "Fine" then left to do his work. Athena then went to see if Aphrodite had done her part.
Later, that night, Kagome, Miroku, and Shippo had stopped to make camp. Poor Shippo was worn out, so he was out cold. Kagome and Miroku were sitting next to each other. It was cold outside and since Kagome couldn't get into the warm sleeping bag in fear of waking the little Kitsune. So she was sitting there shaking like a leaf. When Miroku saw this, he felt a strange emotion swept over his body to his heart and he reached over and pulled Kagome to him. This sudden move surprised the both of them, but neither one of them seemed to like the idea of moving from their position. So they just sat there. Kagome fell asleep, so Miroku gently laid back so that her was on his back and Kagome was against him with her head on his chest. She, in her sleep, cuddled into him and melted into his strong arms. They stayed like that for the rest of the night.
