Thanks for the reviews.
(Fade in to the shrine, seen from POV of Kouga and Ginta.)
GINTA: Heh! Oh boy! Kagome is gonna get the surprise of her life, huh Kouga.
KOUGA: Yep. This is her lucky day! (Kouga lets go of a branch, which swings back and hits Ginta in the mouth. Kouga turns to the band, wedding guests and others, apparently just out of sight of the shrine.)
KOUGA: I'd like to thank you all for coming to my wedding. But first, I better go in there and...propose to the girl! (MINISTER, BAKER, and OTHERS laugh heartily, while the Triplets cry their hearts out. Kouga turns to Ginta) Now, you Ginta. When Kagome and I come out that door--
GINTA: Oh I know, I know! (He turns and begins directing the band in "Here Comes the Bride." Kouga slaps Ginta over his head.)
KOUGA: Not yet!
GINTA: (Rubbing his head) Sorry!
(Cut to inside the shrine. Kagome is sitting in a chair reading her new book. There is a knock at the door. She puts the book down and walks to the door. She looks through the window to see Kouga. She moans, and pushes the door open.)
KAGOME: Kouga, what a pleasant...surprise.
KOUGA: Isn't it though? I'm just full of surprises. You know, Kagome, there's not a girl in town who wouldn't love to be in your shoes. This is the day...(Kouga pauses by a mirror and licks his teeth clean.) This is the day your dreams come true.
KAGOME: What do you know about my dreams, Kouga?
KOUGA: Plenty. Here, picture this. (Kouga plops down in the chair and props his mud-covered feet up on Kagome's book.) A rustic hunting lodge, my latest kill roasting on the fire, and my little wife, massaging my feet, while the little ones play with the dogs. (Kagome looks positively disgusted. Kouga gets up next to her face.) We'll have six or seven.
KAGOME: Dogs?
KOUGA: No, Kagome! Strapping boys, like me!
KAGOME: Imagine that. (She picks up her book, cleans it off and then places a mark in it, and puts it on the shelf.)
KOUGA: And do you know who that wife will be?
KAGOME: Let me think.
KOUGA: (Corners Kagome ) You, Kagome!
KAGOME: (Ducking under Kouga's arms) Kouga, I'm speechless. I really don't know what to say.
KAHOME: (Pushing chairs and things out of the way until he reaches Kagome and traps her against the door) Say you'll marry me.
KAGOME: (Reaching for the doorknob)gomen nasai, Kouga, but I just don't deserve you. (She twists the knob and the door opens (this time outward).
Kagome ducks under Kagome as he tumbles out the door and into the mud.)
(The wedding band begins to play "Here Comes the Bride." Ginta, who is directing the band, looks down and sees Kouga's legs sticking out of the mud, and a PIERRE's head sticking up. Ginta cuts off the band, and Kouga's head pops up, with the pig on top of him. He tilts his head, and the pig slides down his back.)
GINTA: So, how'd it go?
KOUGA: (Picks up Ginta by the neck) I'll have Kagome for my wife, make no mistake about that! (Kouga drops Ginta into the mud.)
GINTA: (To PIERRE) Touchy!
PIERRE: Grunt Grunt. (Kouga walks off, dejected, and the focus returns to the shrine. Kagome pokes her head out the door.)
Kagome: (To her self) Is he gone? Can you imagine, he asked me to marry him. Me, the wife of that boorish, brainless... Ookami Kagome, can't you just see it Ookami Kagome, his little wife Not me, no sir, I guarantee it I want much more than this provincial life... (Kagome walks into the pen and feeds the animals, then runs off singing into an open field overlooking a beautiful valley) I want adventure in the great wide somewhere, I want it more than I can tell. And for once it might be grand, to have someone understand I want so much more than they've got planned (Buyo runs into the open field. Kagome looks at him, disturbed that Jii-chan is not with him.)
KAGOME: Buyo! What are you doing here? Where's Jii-chan? Where is he, Buyo? What happened? Oh, we have to find him, you have to take me to him! (Kagome unhitches the wagon from Buyo.)
next chapter up soon.
