As a special guest, Sesshomaru and Miroku will do the disclaimer! Yay!
Everybody welcome, Lord Sesshomaru of the Western Lands and Lord Miroku, a
Buddhist monk, straight from my bedroom!
::The two are in the room fighting over me:: :-P (I wish)
Ok, well, since they're busy, I'll do it. Humph. Can I please just own him
this once? Please? Fine, I don't own Inuyasha. Hahaha! Take that you stupid
lawyers! Now you can't sue me! Move on to some other un-expecting suspect!
:-P ok, I've taken up too much space. READ ON!
Chapter 12
'There, there's another scratched up tree!' Sango yelled, 'We're on the right track.'
The group of four had been following Inuyasha's markings for two days now, and even with Kirara traveling quickly and high in the air to cover more ground, they still hadn't caught up with him. Or found his final destination.
'Do you think he's even stopped yet?' Miroku looked grim.
'I don't know. It's anybody's guess,' Sango replied solemnly.
Akako was sitting at the front of Kirara, keeping as far away from Miroku as she could. He had come exceedingly close to her in the past two nights, and had managed to touch her in some inappropriate places a few times. She kept using Sango's boomerang, but it only seemed to encourage him. Akako acted like she was disgusted, but she was actually secretly flattered and excited.
'It's getting dark again. And I'm tired. And hungry. Can we please stop?' Shippo whined.
Sango, Miroku and Akako looked at each other and silently agreed that they'd stop 'for Shippo.' However, each one of them was actually agreeing to stop for themselves. They hadn't had much to eat in awhile, and they were all getting rather exhausted. Especially Kirara, so they weren't surprised when she brought them to the ground quickly.
They set up camp, Akako making sure that Shippo, Sango and even Kirara were in between Miroku and herself. Sango smiled on the outside, thinking it was funny that Akako thought that Miroku was 'after her,' but inside, she was almost saddened. She had always thought that Miroku had liked her as 'more then a friend,' even though he was always chasing after other girls. And when they had talked a few nights ago, about love. . . she was almost certain. But now he seemed completely absorbed in Akako, and he seemed to not be able to care less about Sango.
'Goodnight ladies,' Miroku whispered as he quietly moved his sleeping place from next to Sango to next to Akako.

After scrubbing herself completely, Kagome was starting to feel less of the pain. She had torn up one of the sheets and used it to stop the bleeding on her stomach and fashioned a bandage for her wounds, all under the watchful eye of Sesshomaru. In the beginning, she had been wary, but as time wore on, she found he was no more then a presence in her room, and she went on with her work.
When Kagome had finished, she put her kimono on, wincing at the pain, and she walked back over to the bed and laid down. She expected Sesshomaru to either walk away or stay where he was, but she certainly didn't expect him to speak. Not after he had been silent for the past forty-five minutes.
'Very innovative. I expect you downstairs in the dining area in one hour. You might want to start now so you can find it,' Sesshomaru said as he started out the door.
Kagome just stared at him as he walked out the door. He was going to let her wander his dwelling? She knew from experience now that he wouldn't let her escape. She decided to take his advice and start early, as she didn't think she could move very quickly and she assumed this building must be huge, considering it was owned by the Lord of the Western Lands.
Kagome shuffled over to the door and slowly walked out, wondering which way to go.

'Not now, please, not now,' Inuyasha pleaded.
'Yes, now. I must kill you now Inuyasha.'
'Kikyo, please, I must save Kagome.'
'Ha. I don't care. Now, Inuyasha, you will die.'
***
A/N: I know, I'm incredibly cruel, but I had to. Warning, in the future, there will be some serious Kikyo bashing. If you like her, you can skip it. I'll put a warning before and after it. It won't be a large part of the plot, so you won't miss anything, but I need some way to take my anger out on her. Thank you for understanding. Bye!
