To Love an Enemy

Chapter 14 - Anxiety

Disclaimer :I wish I owned Inuyasha but as much as I might wish I did I don't.


Sango sat staring into a camp fire, with Kagome and Inuyasha eating supper. She ate the chicken Kagome had made without tasting, her mind occupied with thoughts of Miroku.

"I wonder what Miroku, is doing now?" Sango thought. "I hope Rin is alright…I can see why Kagome compared waiting for news to be like torture; it's awful. Your mind takes over and you can't think of anything, no matter how hard you try. It's awful just sitting hear, waiting, not being able to do anything!" Thinking about what Naraku had said about Rin made her blood rise to a boil. "UGH! How I HATE him!" she thought venomously.

"Sango!" Kagome's voice said interrupting her thoughts. "Sango! Earth to Sango!"

"Oh," Sango said raising her head from her practically untouched chicken. "Sorry I was thinking."

"About what?" Kagome asked.

"Just how much I hate Naraku," she replied.

"I know," Kagome agreed. "He's so creepy, and I don't know about you but his aura to me, is somewhat….I don't know evil."

"What do you think Inuyasha?" Sango said turning to him.

"I don't trust him one bit," Inuyasha said glaring at Naraku's tent.

"Neither do I," Sango said. "And I can't believe he said those things about Rin!"

"Me either! Talk about cold-hearted, wait a sec that would mean he had some from of a heart, what I meant to say is that guy's heartless," Kagome said giggling.

Sango groaned out loud, "this is AWFUL I can't stand it any more just sitting here waiting! I'm going to help." Standing up she put her food down by the fire and walked off, Kagome and Inuyasha following seconds after. They were almost outside of the small village when the soldiers returned riding their horses. Immediately Sango rushed to the horseman who was holding Rin, in the saddle. She opened her arms for the girl to jump into.

"SANGO!" the little girl cried happily leaping on Sango to give her a big hug.

"Rin!" Sango exclaimed happily kneeling to the ground. "Are you right? Were you hurt?"

"Nope, Rin's okay!" she smiled. Then quickly remembering her rescuer Rin turned to the soldier on the horse. "Thank you, Mr. Sesshomaru. Rin is very grateful for you saving Rin."

Inuyasha growled, but Kagome put a restraining hand on his shoulder.

Sesshomaru quickly kecked his horse into a trot, with a curt nod saying, "goodnight Rin."

"Night, night Mr. Sesshomaru," Rin called waving happily.

Sango looked up as the rest of the riders began to dismount. Her brow furled seeing their sad faces. Ignoring Rin running over to Kagome to hug her too, Sango walked over to the nearest soldier and said, "sorry to bother you I know you're probably tired and all, but I couldn't help but notice that you all seem to be sad? Why, you rescued Rin didn't you?"

The soldier turned and looked sadly at her and said, "it's the prince miss."

Sango turned around, looking for Miroku. "Speaking of that lecher where is he anyway?"

"That's just it miss," the soldier said. "Prince Miroku is missing."
