Disclaimer: I wished I wished upon a star that I owned Inuyasha…Damn star.

AN: This is a double post to make up for my lack of updates, hope you enjoy the two new chapters.

Sango Stasia

Chapter Three

The Box

- Last Time –

Sango however couldn't help but look back and just before Naraku's head was completely gone she caught a glimpse of his eyes, a strong glint of hate directed right towards her.

"SANYA! WAKE UP!"

Shooting up from her bed Sanya awoke to the not-so-pleasant face of Kikyou.

"Yes Comrade Kikyou?"

"I'm hungry…make me something to eat."

"Yes Comrade Kikyou."

- Now –

Maybe it had been the severe knock on the head, or perhaps the fact that he was shaken awake roughly by his fellow palace worker Inuyasha, either way Miroku had grown up to be quite the interesting young man.

For instance…

Inuyasha shook his head sadly as Miroku was again smacked into the cobblestone by another victim of his "roaming hands".

"Sometimes I wonder why I took you in."

As he got up Miroku flashed his surrogate brother a grin.

"My devilish charms?"

"Devilish is right enough."

Fingering the small jewelry box that he carried in his coat he got a pondering look about him. It was the only thing that he remembered from that night in the Palace and he felt a special connection to it.

"Oy, Miroku What's wrong?"

"Just thinking."

"Don't hurt yourself."

"What's that supposed to mean?!"

"That you don't even know where you got that damn thing, we need money and you should let me pawn it."

"No."

Picking up a newspaper from the stand in the middle of the smoky market he tossed a coin in the direction of the vendor.

"Duchess Kaede Searches For Lost Princess Sango."

As some light memories filtered through from the recesses of his brain he grabbed Inuyasha by the shoulders.

"…Sango! THAT'S IT!"

"What's it?"

"The Box! This Box!"

Pulling Inuyasha in closer he whispered with trembled excitement.

"It belongs to Sango!"
