Sango roamed the halls of the Higurashi Mansion. She was nervous about taking Kagome's earrings and skateboard with her. I mean, things like earrings you can easily hide, but a skateboard? How in the world was she supposed to hide a skateboard?
She glanced into Kagome's room. It was empty of people, lucky for Sango. She was actually surprised that no one was in there, considering the fact the King Higurashi was weeping when she entered the mansion for her shift.
"Sango sob did you hear about sob Kagome?" John Higurashi had sobbed (obviously)
Sango shuffled nervously on her feet. "Well… umm… no. What happened to her?" she said untruthfully.
The king sniffed. "I think she got kidnapped. I have no clue how; the mansion is always so well guarded!"
Sango stopped herself from rolling her eyes. She wasn't kidnapped, but she might as well have been. They escaped without any problems at all.
"I'm sure she wasn't kidnapped, King Higurashi. Why would anyone want to kidnap her?"
The king had looked from side to side and whispered, "I think it might have been the demon wolf clan who kidnapped her. Koga was getting a little restless, and I think he wanted to marry my Kagome right away!"
Sango smiled slightly, trying to comfort the king, although personally she was scared of Koga. "My lord, I'm sure that Kagome was not kidnapped. I'm sure that she just… umm… ran away because of that whole Koga marriage thing." Sango said, thinking, 'It won't matter if I hint that she ran away.'
The king smiled, although it was a sad smile. He patted Sango on the shoulder and went on his way.
That was at the beginning of the shift. Now it was the end, and she was uncertainly standing in the doorway of Kagome's room. She took one step inside and began searching for the skateboard. The last time that she had seen it, it was leaning against the wall in her closet. She quickly found it, but she had a hard time looking for the earrings. Where in the world would she put a pair of earrings?
Sango looked back into her bedroom from the closet and noticed a bureau standing in the far corner. A brush and some make-up was scattered across it, but in the center was a gold encrusted jewelry box. Sango smiled at it and made her way across the room to it. Then suddenly, someone shut the door.
Sango gasped and whipped herself around. There stood Koga, one eyebrow raised, making him look very arrogant.
"So, maid, what are you doing in my fiancé's room?" he said casually, although there was a hint of annoyance in it.
Sango shook slightly, but said defiantly, "Cleaning. What do you think I was doing? I'm a maid after all. And why are you calling her your fiancé? She hasn't agreed to anything."
Koga chuckled and said, "Why, who said she had to agree? Queen Kikyo said I would marry the luscious Princess Kagome. That's all there is to it."
Sango's eyes widened. So Kikyo was behind this. No doubt she was going to force Kagome to marry him. She had no clue how, but Kikyo always found a way.
Sango growled. "You're a monster, Koga."
Koga's mocking face immediately turned into a scowl. He slapped her and she fell backward. "That's Prince Koga, to you, bitch."
Sango held her tears in until Koga left. And then she cried a river.
Kagome stepped out of Miroku's car and waved goodbye to him. Surprisingly, Miroku had kept his hands off of her. What she didn't know was that Inuyasha had threatened Miroku if he touched her once.
She happily walked to the front door. Sango had given her a key, so she went right in side, dancing the whole way. She dropped her backpack by the front door, walked into the kitchen, grabbed a quart of ice cream out of the freezer, and sped to the couch where she sat watching cartoons until Sango came home.
When Sango did come home, Kagome fixing dinner. Then she saw the red print of Sango's face.
Kagome gasped and dropped the pan she was holding. She rushed to Sango, who had tear streaks running down the side of her face.
"Oh my God, Sango, what happened?" Kagome cried, searching Sango's face for any signs of bleeding.
Sango sniffed and said, "K… K… Koga."
Kagome's caring eyes suddenly turned evil, and Sango got scared.
Kagome stood up, leaving Sango on the ground. "You know what," Kagome said quietly, her small voice full of venom. "I am sick and tired of that damn Koga. And I have hardly known him for three days! Maybe I should just go back to the mansion so he will leave you alone…"
Then Sango stood up quickly and said, "No. Kagome, I won't let you do that to yourself. We will find a way around this; I will make sure of that!"
Kagome smiled and hugged Sango.
"Thanks Sango, you're the best." Kagome said. And then she remembered something.
"Hey Sango, did you get my skateboard and earrings?" Kagome asked, hoping that she could get her skateboard so that she could cool off. Maybe go down to the skate park around the corner.
Sango smiled and pointed to her car outside. "You think I would let my best friend hanging?"
Kagome laughed and ran to the car. A trip to the skate park was in order.
