DISCLAIMER: if I owned Inuyasha…I would be writing a new manga.
Ch. 4 Chemistry
Kagome was slowly opening the door, when she shut it suddenly. Sango, Miroku, and Inuyasha, jerked their heads. Kagome held her breath.
"What's going on?" Sango breathed. She was nervous. She was expecting it to be the mysterious man who had tried to abduct her.
She felt Shippo's small hand wrapped around her finger, and Miroku's hand patting her back, trying to reassure her. Sango was a little too shaken to shoo him off.
Miroku thought it was the mysterious man, just as Sango did. He remembered hearing Sango scream as she fell to the hard, forest floor.
-----------------------
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!"
((A scream?)) Miroku wondered. He ran quickly through the small maze the forest presented him.
Miroku stopped behind a small tree. A man was laughing hysterically, circling around the young woman. She seemed to be out cold. Her blood ran out from her mouth and several places from her body. "I got you now, my pretty. Tried to be tough, huh? Well, I'm going to enjoy you…."
Miroku took a step back. ((I must save her.))
"Hey!" Miroku stepped out from his hiding place. "What are you doing, you bastard?"
The man narrowed his eyes, but quickly turned skeptical when he saw it was nearly a monk who was threatening him. "What do you care? This is my business. Go mind your own."
With that, he picked up his prize and began to stagger away. "Oh, no, you're not. Come back here! What? Are you afraid of a monk?"
Miroku's challenge didn't even interest the man. "No, it's just that it's not worth it."
Miroku, usually calm and at peace, lost his temper. He jumped and kicked the man in his back. The girl was trusted from the man's arms.
"Why, you--" The man did not finish his insult. He was slammed to the ground and then kicked in the stomach.
The man quickly got up and ran away. ((That was really, very easy.)) Miroku mused.
With that, he scooped the girl in his arms and tried to find help.
---------------
Inuyasha, however, was clearly not impressed. "Well? She's waiting for you, dumbass."
Kagome was too freaked out to even glare at him. She was still trying to process what she had just seen.
A knock on the door, told the group that whoever she was, was waiting for someone to open the door.
Shippo looked around, clueless. "What's going on?"
Inuyasha, tired of waiting, pushed the shocked Kagome away from the small door. He opened it with glee ((yes glee….I'm using vocabulary people…..)) . "Kikyo!"
Kikyo's bent head slowly lifted up. Her eyes shone with tears as she saw her loved one. "Inuyasha!"
She jumped into his arms and they hugged and kissed. Their happy moment was interrupted by gawking stares. Kikyo pulled away. "Um, hi."
Miroku was about to go and "greet" Kikyo, but was stopped by a fist in his face. Inuyasha introduced him as the perverted monk, Sango as the girl, and Kagome as the hostess.
Kikyo turned to Kagome. "What's wrong with you?"
"Y-y-you're…you--….we're twins!" kagome finally raised her voice. "hasn't any one noticed that?!"
The rest of the group, turned heads to compare. "No." They each replied.
"I must be….I'll be outside." Kagome rushed past everyone and disappeared.
Miroku and Sango inched away to leave the lovers alone. Kikyo turned to Inuyasha, her eyes brimmed with tears. "I wondered what happened when you didn't some back. I searched. Thank God I found out you were in this village. I--"
She was hushed by Inuyasha. He cradled her head in his neck as they whispered small loving comments to each other. After a while, Inuyasha whispered to Kikyo, "I missed you." He chuckled. "I couldn't leave though."
Kikyo didn't answer. She had fallen fats asleep. He placed her in Kagome's bed. He stared at her and came to a slow realization that she did look like Kagome, in a sense.
He remembered that Kagome had gone outside. He went outside, feeling calmer. He went behind the house to the stream and began walking upstream. He came across a small pond. It was near the small spring that began the small river.
Inuyasha walked toward the pond, since he had nothing better to do. He looked over the small pond, only to see Kagome in a small boat in the middle of the pond.
Inuyasha stopped in his tracks to stare at the small boat. He looked around and decided to climb a tree and then jump into the small boat.
When he did jump into the boat, Kagome lifted her eyes to see Inuyasha towering over her. She curled herself up and placed her head on her knees.
He sat across from her. He stared at Kagome, trying to find something that wasn't Kikyo's. "You really do look alike. I must have not noticed."
Kagome sighed. "Well, it was nice knowing you. I just glad I healed you and Sango. You guys were my first."
Inuyasha continued to stare at her. His soft eyes seemed to smile. "I'm glad I got to know you. I'm grateful I got to know you."
Kagome didn't say anything.
((Guess I need to compliment her more.)) Inuyasha thought. It wasn't his nature to be nice. But he was glad he had met her. "I--I like being with you. Although, we didn't get along…"
Kagome smiled. "You're being weird."
"Okay! Forget the corny stuff." He scooted closer to Kagome. He placed his arms around her and they stared off silently.
Kagome smiled and scooted closer to him. Inuyasha whispered, "You remind me of Kikyo, in more than one way."
----------------
"Sango! She said didn't ask me to leave! You are being irrational." Miroku folded his arms across his chest.
Sango stopped to turn to Miroku. "Irrational?! You are such a pervert."
Miroku sighed and laughed a little. "Will it help if I told you, you had wonderful breasts?"
Sango scoffed in disbelief. She slapped him. "Ohmigosh! You are not helping yourself."
"Yeah, I kind of noticed." Miroku laid down on the grass. "Come! It's pleasant."
Sango reluctantly laid next to him. "I feel nothing."
"Breath." Miroku smiled.
"This is weird." She paused. "This is…nice."
Miroku grabbed her hand and she stiffened. "Relax."
She relaxed and she snuggled closer to Miroku. "You're a pervert." She said more to herself then Miroku.
Miroku smiled. "Let me be perverted." He reached over and gave a small kiss to Sango on her lips.
She quickly got up. "Hey! That's--Why--ugh!" She stomped away a few feel before she sat down next to Miroku once more.
"You didn't slap me." Miroku stated.
"What?" Sango asked gloomily.
"That's a nice step forward." Miroku smiled and Sango stared at him with an open mouth.
"Oh! No, no, no." She shook her head. "Me. You. Not happening."
He shrugged and Sango couldn't help but smile a little too.
