Chapter 15
They reached Mushin's temple in about an hour. They found Mushin outside sweeping the ground. Mushin heard something above him so he looked up and saw Miroku on Inuyasha's back. Mushin quickly dropped the broom and began to wave his arms.
"MUSHIN!" Inuyasha shouted.
The hanyou finally landed on the ground by the priest. Miroku was over heating and was sweating like crazy. Mushin looked over to the monk's cursed right hand and saw that his hand was a deep purple color. Mushin then led Inuyasha inside so that he could put Miroku into a bed. Soon the others came and rushed inside.
"Is he going to be okay?" Shippou hid behind Inuyasha's leg.
"I'm not certain. How did this happen. What made Miroku so ill?" Mushin asked.
"He sucked in too many saimyosho. It was to finish off an incarnation of Naraku" Sango exclaimed.
"SAIMYOSHO! We must get the right medical herbs to save him. If we don't I'm afraid he'll die" Mushin was in shock.
"Die! He can't die. I don't even know if he even loves me. Don't die you perverted monk. I love you" thought Sango as she released tears from her eyes.
"We need an antidote in order to save him" Mushin explained. "There is an herb called Nashinto on top of Mt. Fuji. If we don't get the medicine inside his blood stream before sunset tomorrow, I fear it will be the end. Not only the poison will kill him, his wind tunnel will burst and suck everything in sight until Miroku himself is sucked into the wind void" Mushin's eyes glimmered in determination and as if he could see the future.
Sango stood up and left the temple without a single word. She then ordered Kilala to transform and she then got on and left. Kagome ran out and saw that Sango was heading towards Mt. Fuji's peak. Kagome smiled and then informed the others waiting for an explanation of Sango's actions.
"So Sango is getting the herb for Miroku? It's hard to believe that Sango could fall for a pervert" Inuyasha said in an awkward tone.
"So what if she is! She is doing this to save his life. She cares for him and yes sometimes Miroku is perverted but he is caring" Kagome began to argue with the hanyou.
"Stop fighting. Miroku is hurt and all you can do is fight. I had enough with your pathetic fights. You guys aren't the greatest couple either but you guys care for one another. If this situation was in reverse you guys would be doing the same damn thing" Shippou yelled at the two fighting and also cursed for the very first time.
"Shippou?" Kagome was surprised for the kitsune's language and actions too.
"Don't you Shippou me. Just stop fighting Okay" Shippou broke in tears.
"How pathetic Shippou. Can't even act like a man" Inuyasha crossed his arms and tilted his head up.
"Sit!" Kagome screamed.
Poor Mushin listening to the whole damn thing and was being ignored. It was like as if he were invisible and wasn't even there.
Sango and Kilala journey to Mt. Fuji:
"Hang on Miroku. I'll get the medical herb that requires the cure. Just a little bit longer" Sango thought aloud as she was inclosing on her destination.
They finally got to the mountain and began to search for the herb. Yet there was no sign of the herb any where. While back when Mushin said it was at the top of the mountain, Sango didn't hear that part. She was too upset to hear that important detail. Sango searched and searched but no sign of the herb. Finally she gave up and rose to the top of the mountain ready to fly off. That is when she noticed the herb on top of the mountain. Sango slapped herself for being so foolish and quickly took the plant with force.
"Got it!" Sango victorious said.
"Meow" Kilala meow with happiness. (I don't know how you would say when Kilala meows in her large form. I'm just stupid like that so that meow wasn't supposed to be a cute one.
Back to Miroku and the others waiting for Sango's return:
"Come on Sango. Hurry back, I don't think Miroku is going to last for much longer" Kagome looked up into the sky.
"Do you think she will come back in time before Miroku dies?" Shippou asked while still crying.
"Shippou don't say that. Of coarse she is going to come in time. Miroku isn't going to die" Kagome got angry at the kitsune's question.
The hanyou walked outside as well to comfort his friends. Mushin soon joined them and they all watched the skies for the sight of the demon slayer.
Inside Miroku's head:
Miroku woke up but wasn't really awake. He was inside his mind. All around him was darkness and he was alone. Few seconds later Sango appeared before him.
"Miroku don't die. Keep on fighting the poison" Sango demanded and then disappeared.
"Wait Sango!" Miroku was too late.
After that Kagome appeared before him.
"Kagome?" Miroku was puzzled for his friends appearing in his mind.
"Sango's right. Keep fighting the poison. We need your help in beating Naraku. Don't die on us" Kagome too disappeared just as Sango did.
Even unconscious he was getting encouragement from his friends. Miroku nodded and searched the darkness. He soon came along a light in the distance. Miroku then picked up the paste and began to run towards the light in the distance. The light got brighter and brighter as he got closer. Then all of a sudden he heard Inuyasha's voice but didn't see him any where.
"Come on you lecher. You have the power to live. I know this because I know what you are capable of. Hurry up and get back to us. We are depending on you" Inuyasha's voice echoed in his head and soon faded away.
Before he reached the light he had flashed back at all the great times and not so great times he had.
"Pervert. Keep your hands to your self!" Sango shouted at the monk for rubbing her ass.
"Sango watch out!" Miroku pushed Sango away from Kageromaru.
"Lecherous monk" Inuyasha would say.
"Thanks Miroku" Kagome would thank Miroku fro complementing her cooking.
"A good day, good friends, and Kagome's home cooking" Miroku sat by his friends eating Kagome's delicious cooking (from Affections Touching Across Time)
Back to him running towards the light:
Miroku now stood in front of the light which he had run to. He didn't know if he should see what was on the other side or stay in the darkness. Then when he just stared at the light he saw his friends' faces. One by one he saw them and then he saw them all together. He now knew if he crossed over he would see his friends again. Miroku then began to feel pain in his right hand and knew why. Finally Miroku stepped into the light and crossed over.
Back in Mushin's temple:
Kagome, Inuyasha, Mushin, and Shippou went back inside to check on Miroku. When they sat around him, Miroku's eyes fluttered up and then stopped. Now they were fully open. He then searched around him and saw his friends around him.
"Miroku you're awake" Shippou said excitedly.
"I'm glad that you're okay. You were pretty out of it for awhile" Kagome smiled.
"Miroku you'll be cured soon. Just hang on until Sango gets back with the antidote" Mushin smiled too.
"Sango…is she okay?" Miroku was afraid that Sango had left him.
"Yeah, she is pretty upset that you are suffering from the poison. She broke into tears before. She is determined to make you better" Inuyasha informed the poisoned monk.
"Really. I didn't think she would care that much" Miroku closed his eyes again.
Everyone gasped. They thought he was going back into another deep slumber.
"Don't worry I'm not leaving. I'm just tired that's all" Miroku reassured his worried friends.
With Sango on the way:
Sango was only a few minutes away from the temple. She was ordering Kilala to go faster but Kilala was getting tired and was going slower.
"Oh come on Kilala. We are almost there. You can take a rest when we arrive to Mushin's temple" Sango was getting angry.
Sango was determined to get to Miroku before it was too late. She had to get there like her own life depended on it. Kilala didn't want to let her owner down so she began to go faster. They finally arrived and they landed. Sango then hurried into the temple to find Miroku awake. She then tumbled in and handed the herbs to Mushin. Mushin then repaired the potion and made Miroku drink it. He then also made Miroku to release his wind void. Miroku at first denied the demand but had no choice but to do it. As the wind void was released, Mushin poured some of the potion into it. This way it would spread faster. Mushin ordered everyone out so that Miroku could have his rest. Sango was great full that she got here in time. A half hour past and Miroku walked outside by himself.
"Miroku you should be walking" Sango rushed over to the monk.
Miroku fell but was caught by Sango. Miroku's head now rested on the ground. Sango lend over Miroku.
"Sango is Miroku okay?" on the opposite side as Sango, Kagome asked.
"I don't know" Sango responded. "Ahhh!" Sango's screamed.
'Wack'
Miroku was rubbing Sango ass while pretending to be fainted.
"He's absolutely okay" Sango's fists were tight and she was pulsing with anger.
An hour past and they headed off.
"Thank you Mushin" Miroku bowed to the other monk.
"Anytime Miroku. Anytime" Mushin bowed as well.
Miroku turned away and joined his friends.
"Feeling better monk?" Sango asked in a scary tone.
"Yeah a lot better. Thank you Sango for being caring enough to heal me" Miroku took Sango's hand.
Soon enough Sango was blushing but stopped when the monks hand began doing its thing.
"Keep your hands to yourself pervert!" Sango yelled as she smacked Miroku on the right cheek.
Miroku's face now had a red hand print.
"Why are all humans so ridiculous?" Inuyasha blurted out.
"What did you just say?" a similar voice spoke up.
"Kagome I didn't mean it. I swear" Inuyasha panicked.
"SIT BOY!" Kagome screamed.
Now that every thing is back to normal, the gang continued their search for the Naraku and the jewel shards. The whole crisis with Kikyo didn't exactly fade away but recovered slowly. Kikyo was now gone and she can now be in peace. Like I care about that bitch. Miroku recovered from the poison and returned to the old same o perverted monk. They were finally happy.
The End
I had to end this story here because I felt I was dragging the story out too much. I kinda side tracked and the last couple of chapters didn't have anything to do with Killing Kikyo. Well a little. I'm going to make another story. This one is going to be a mystery one. Well hope you liked this chapter!
