A/N: Hey everyone, I really apperciate the reviews. I apologize for the wait, I hope you enjoy this chapter.

"Talking"
'Thinking'
Last time
'Probably a mushy text from Inuyasha.' Sango thought to herself.
When trying to click the message off, having pressed the wrong button the message opened. The message read:
Remember you are meeting me in the park where your father used to take you. No police, no nothing. Not a word
of this to anyone, everyone you love will be dead. See you at midnight.
Sango's eyes widened in shocked.
"Sango-chan, do you know where I put my cellphone?" Yep, that's what Sango was waiting for.
When there was no answer Kagome turned around to face Sango's upset face, "Sango-chan?"
Sango pulled out Kagome's cellphone and pressed a button to illuminate the cellphone so everything could be seen on the screen of the cellphone. Then once you could see the small text, she showed Kagome.
"You tell me everything Kagome-chan?" Sango was slightly pissed off. It's been 2 days since she had found out about Naraku along with Miroku and Inuyasha from Sesshoumaru, who knows how long Kagome has been going through this, and she did not say a word.
Kagome opened the box and showed Kagome the marble size white ball inside the box.
"I protect the Shikon Jewel now."
"Kagome-chan are you crazy! Get rid of that thing!" Sango exclaimed, what was her friend thinking?
"Sango-chan, I'm a miko. I have been taking private training from Kaede ever since my dad died. I have to protect it. If it falls into dangerous hands like Naraku, who knows what will happen."
"Why didn't you ever tell me this?" This was too much for Sango to comprehend all at once.
"I didn't want you to get killed, just because of this." Kagome looked down at the floor. She had never told anyone this besides the ones that already know.
"Kagome-chan I can't let you face this alone. What about Inuyasha and Miroku? Are you going to tell them?"
"I don't know Sango-chan. I just don't know." Kagome began to cry.
Sango stood up and gave her friend a hug trying to calm her down.
'What are we going to do?' Sango and Kagome thought.
Chapter 11: Reality
Why is it when everything seems to be going really well, like you think nothing bad can happen, you've thought of everything that could happen and are prepared for anything. Then all of a sudden your whole world comes crashing down upon you in a blink of an eye. At that moment it happens to you, you feel as if the world over. You feel helpless, scared, lost, and depressed. The question is how do you deal with it?
Sango didn't know what to do but try and calm her best friend down. Words had escaped her, and felt as if she could not speak. Kagome on the other hand was still in tears, she had just put Sango's life on the line, but what else could she do? She couldn't keep that kind of secret bottled up in herself and bare it on her own. She needed someone to talk to you, to understand, to be there with her.
Sango's cellphone went off, the caller I.D. said "Miroku's Cell."
(A/N: From now on when there is a phone conversation, the person that is speaking will have their name first then what they are saying. Like this: "Sango:")
Sango: Hello?
Miroku: Hey Sango, just reminding you, Inuyasha and I are picking you and Kagome up at seven.
Sango: About that Miroku, well you see something...Kagome-chan! Give me back my phone!
Kagome: 7 o'clock Miroku? That's fine, pick us up at Sango's place. See you at 7 bye!
Kagome hung up the phone before Miroku could even respond.
"Kagome-chan! We can't go out at a time like this. There are things that need to be thought about and taken care of!" Sango exclaimed.
"But Sango-chan I really need this! I've been stressed for the past few days, I need to have some fun. I promise we can be all serious later, but just let me have fun tonight. Please Sango?" Kagome used her famous puppy dog face, because she knew that Sango could never say no to that.
"Oh no you don't Kagome-chan. I'm not falling under your trap again. It won't work if I can't see you." Sango turned her back to Kagome, but Kagome didn't quit. She knew the puppy dog face always worked on Sango.
Sango tried hard not to look at her friend but she couldn't help it. She would turn around to look at Kagome then turn in the other direction.
"Please Sango!" Kagome whined making her eyes get bigger to go along with her puppy dog face.
"Fine, fine! But after this Kagome we are going to be completely serious and figure this out."
"Sango-chan I love you!" Kagome smiled.
"I love you too Kagome-chan," Sango couldn't help but smile back at her weird friend.
(A/N: None of you get any lesbian thoughts, Sango and Kagome are best friends. I don't have a problem with them but in my story Kagome and Sango are not lesbians.)
It was 5 o'clock so Sango and Kagome decided to get ready. They both took a shower, after that the girls both went into Sango's room and choose out their outfits and fixed their hair and make-up. Sango had straightened her hair and for make-up only wore black eyeliner and clear lip gloss. Her outfit of choice was a hot pink shirt that tied right under her breast and it just barely covered them as well, you coud see her black bra coming out from under the "shirt". It was just like those little shirts that you put over your two piece bathing suit top. Along with this she wore a plaid short school girl looking skirt. Kagome had slightly curled her hair, and also put on black eyeliner with clear lip gloss. Her outfit of choice was a denim mini skirt with fishnets and knee high boots, a black bra and black see through top over it.
"Kagome-chan, you look hot!" Sango exclaimed happliy.
"So do you Sango-chan!" Kagome smiled
"Well you know I try," Sango smirked.
Kagome let out a giggle and fixed her hair again.
Sango gave her friend a weird look, "Kagome-chan, do you have an obessession with your hair or something? It looks fine leave it alone!"
"But Sango-chan! I want it to look perfect for Inuyasha." Kagome whinned still fixing her hair.
Sango walked up to Kagome and snatched the comb out of her hand, "Kagome-chan, if you don't catch Inuyasha's attention with that outfit, the boy is blind." Sango gave her a reasurring smile and put the comb away.
Before they knew it, there was a ring of the doorbell.
Sango looked at her alarm clock, "Right on time, not too bad."
Both Sango and Kagome grabbed their purses before they went to answer the door.
When they opened the door there stood Miroku and Inuyasha with shocked expressions. Both giving the girls a quick look up and down.
"Sango you look beautiful," Miroku smiled.
"Keep it in your pants Miroku," Sango smirked.
"You guys ready to go?" Inuyasha asked.
"Yeah," Both Sango and Kagome answered.
Sango locked up her house and walked out to Miroku's car with everyone else.
At The Club
It was awhile before they actually got inside of the club because of the huge line, but once we got in they had trouble getting through the swarming people that were dancing. They picked out a table close to the dance floor but not close enough for them to be smoothered by people. Everyone ordered what they wanted to drink and settled into a nice conversation. Too bad it wouldn't last for long.
"Hey Inuyasha, so you and Kagome huh?" Miroku knudged Inuyasha.
"About time if you ask me," Sango said exasperated.
Kagome felt a light blush coming over her face. Before she knew it she was as red as a tomato.
"Kagome are you getting to warm or something? Do you need some air?" Inuyasha asked concerned.
"No...hehe I'm fine Inuyasha," Kagome just blushed even more.
Sango smirked at her friend, "Kagome-chan you know you are really red." Sango couldn't help but make fun of her friend.
"Sango-chan!"
"Yes?" Sango answered innocently.
A girl with short black hair in a black tube top and really short skirt that looked more like a handkerchief. Her eyes were set on Miroku.
"Hey handsome," She winked.
Miroku really didn't want to dance with her but he thought maybe he would get Sango's attention this way.
"What is your name?" Miroku giving her his famous smirk that would make any girl drool.
"Yura, do you wanna dance?" She bended over a little more to expose her already too exposed breast.
"Sure," Miroku stood up and took Yura's hand and walked to the dance floor.
Sango watched the two dance for awhile. She was getting so mad she didn't realize that she was gripping her glass of water so tight that it shattered in her hands, water all over the table along with the glass from the cup.
"Sango-chan are you okay?" Kagome looked at her hand in worry.
Sango wasn't even paying attention to her hand, she gaze was focused on the dance floor, where Miroku and Yura danced together.
"Just look at those two. Disgusting." Sango sneered.
"Sango-chan will you focus on your hand please, you're bleeding!" Kagome cleaned up the glass from the cup.
"Can you believe him? Look at the way he's dancing with her." Sango emphasized the last word with venom.
Kagome pulled a handkerchief from her purse and wrapped it around Sango's hand and tied tight to add pressure on it to stop the bleeding. This didn't go unoticed by Sango though.
"OW! Kagome-chan what the fuck?" Sango pulled back her hand from her.
"Hey genius you broke your glass with your hand," Inuyasha pointed out.
Sango looked at her hand and discovered that she did in fact break her glass.
"Geez didn't even realize that," Sango said still looking at her hand and sighed.
"Something catch your eye Sango?" Inuyasha said smirking knowing exactly what she was looking at.
"Shut up Inuyasha before I castrate you." Sango glared at him, then returned her gaze to the dancing pair.
Yura was all over Miroku like a cheap suit. It made Sango's blood boil. Raging mad, she made her way to the dance floor pushing people out her way. When she reached Yura and Miroku she ripped Yura away from Miroku and threw her into a crowd of people. Sango put her arms around Miroku's neck and started dancing with him. He gave her a perverted smirk and she just glared at him.
"Shut up Miroku," Sango turned around so her back was up against him.
"I didn't even say anything Sango," Miroku's hands held Sango's waist as he continuted to dance.
"Just dance," Sango said with a snap.
The two of them were lost in the beat of the music. Focused only on each other. They both could feel the heat rising in their bodies but that didn't stop them. Miroku then turned Sango around to face him and kissed her. This brought a whole new sensation to Sango that she had never felt before. She was reluctant to return the kiss but soon she gave in and kissed him back with just as much hunger as Miroku. After a few minutes they broke a part for air and just stood there for a moment to take in what just happened.
"Miroku...wha..why?" Sango said still trying to recover from that kiss.
"Sango will you go out with me?" Miroku asked.
"How do I know you won't cheat on me?" Sango asked unsure. She knew she wanted to say yes but she still had her insecurites.
"Those other girls mean nothing to me, they were just to get you jealous and notice me." Miroku answered truthfully.
"I'll have to kill you for that one." Sango smiled.
"So that's a yes?"
"That's a yes," Sango said as she leaned up and kissed Miroku again.
Their hands intertwined and they started to dance again. Both of them feeling happy and complete.
With Kagome and Inuyahsa
Kagome and Inuyasha were having a great time. They've been dancing all night. Laughing and smiling. In the beginning Kagome had been hesitant to dance because she didn't really know how but with a little help and encouragement from Inuyasha she was a natural. Everything was going great. Then Kagome's cell phone started to vibrated, she had clipped it to her boot just in case there was an emergancy.
There was a text message, it said:
I expect to see you at Sakura park in one hour, if you are not there I'll make sure everything you love will be taken away from you.
Kagome looked at her cell phone with horror. She hadn't realized what time it was.
"Kagome? Is something wrong? Are you okay?" Inuyasha tried to get her attention.
"I'm sorry Inuyasha," Was all she said as she bolted through the crowd back to their table and took Sango's keys from her purse.
Inuyasha tried to catch her but he got stuck in the crowd. He got back to the table just in time to see Kagome run out the back door of the club.
Inuyasha had to find Miroku and Sango and follow Kagome. After a little bit of searching and pushing through tons of people he found them dancing together. In normal circumstances he would have been in shock but he had no time for that. Something was wrong and he knew it, and he had to protect Kagome from whatever it is.
"Sango, Kagome took your keys and ran out of here, any idea why?" Inuyasha asked over the loud music.
"Oh shit!" Sango said and she took Miroku's hand and went back to their table to retrive their things and went out to the parking lot.
"Sango what's going on?" Miroku asked.
"Just get in the car, and drive to Sakura park, Inuyasha you follow us in your car."
They did as they were told and got in the cars and drove out of the parking lot of the club.
Sakura Park
Kagome had walked on the docks, knowing exactly where he wanted to meet her. Her father had taken her here many times, so many fond memories were made here. Her father would take her here to watch the sun set. It was one of the most beautiful things she'd ever seen. She loved it here, she always came here to escape every day life just to think to herself. Only close friends and family knew that this was her special place. Kagome looked around for the bench her and her father used to sit on together. When she found it she walked behind it, and there it was her and her father's initals. He carved them there when she was younger.
Flash Back
"Daddy, what are you doing?" Little Kagome asked as she stood behind her father.
Kenji was on his knee's behind the bench they always sat on with one of his keys of his key chain.
"I'm carving our initials into this bench, so when I'm gone you can take your children here and show them this is where you and I sat together." Kenji said as he just finished carving their initals and stood up.
"But daddy you are never going to go away," Kagome said innocently.
Kenji Higurashi looked down at his daughter, his eyes had gone soft. He bent down and lifted little Kagome into his arms and looked into her eyes holding one of her little hands in his.
"Honey, one day daddy may not be with you anymore. That does not mean that I will stop loving you. I'll always watch over you Kagome." Kenji smiled.
End of Flash Back
"Kagome," Naraku walked out from the shadows.
"Naraku," Kagome glared.
"Now Kagome, look how much you've grown up. All though you didn't have to dress up for me," Naraku smirked.
"What do you want Naraku?" Kagome said ignoring his comment.
"You know what I want Kagome," Naraku replied.
"Pssht, like I'm going to give it to you." Kagome turned her back to him crossing her arms.
Naraku shook his head at her and walked towards her.
"I think you will find you won't be able to resist." Naraku whispered in her ear making Kagome shiver from head to toe.
Miroku, Sango, and Inuyasha arrived at Sakura park shortly.
"There's my car," Sango pointed.
"We better hurry," Miroku said.
They started walking along the path to where they knew Kagome would always sit, so they figured to go there first.
"Sango what the hell is going on here?" Inuyasha demanded to know.
"Inuyasha, Kagome will explain later right now lets just focus on finding Kagome." Sango felt so stressed, she had to find her best friend. She blamed herself, she got too caught up with Miroku that she forgot that Kagome had to meet with Naraku tonight.
It wasn't long before they heard talking. Kagome and Naraku came into view.
"Who the fuc," Before Inuyasha could finish his sentence Sango dragged him and Miroku behind a bush.
"What the fuck Sango?" Inuyasha was fuming.
"Inuyasha you have to be quiet or they'll hear us." Sango whispered.
Inuyasha answered with a quiet keh and they turned to watch the scene.
Kagome turned around to face Naraku and stepped away to put some distance between them.
"What are you talking about?" Kagome said trying to sound brave but inside she was scared.
"Why don't you come with me and I'll show you," Naraku smirked once again.
His eyes shown lust and evil. Kagome couldn't turn her eyes away from them, she was too afraid. Naraku took hold of Kagome's wrist and started pulling her along. Kagome tried to fight back but he was too strong.
Inuyasha's eyes burned in rage he came out from behind the bushes with Miroku and Sango right behind him. Naraku quickly turned in their direction, then looked back at Kagome.
"You little bitch, you planned this didn't you?" Naraku threw her to the ground and faced his new opponents.
Sango rushed to Kagome as Miroku and Inuyasha faced Naraku.
"I don't know who the fuck you are, but you won't live long enough for me to care," Inuyasha snarled.
Naraku expelled roots that replaced his arms, sending them straight towards Miroku and Inuyasha. Miroku and Inuyasha dodged most of them easily. Inuyasha charged toward Naraku past the roots while Miroku stayed behind to make sure Sango and Kagome did not get run through with the roots. Miroku punched the roots trying to get them to stop coming back as best could not having a weapon. Once he would get a hold of a root he would rip it apart and throw it aside. He managed to dodge most of the ones that came after him but he couldn't keep this up. A root had cut right across his left shoulder, which made it harder for him to defend himself.
Inuyasha shreded the roots that came near him into pieces, he smiled in triumph. He so proud of himself that he didn't see the the root coming up behind him, by the time he did the root and knocked the wind out of him and landed near Kagome and Sango. Miroku was still fighting but everyone could tell he couldn't handle it all on his own. Naraku smirked he knew he had the upper hand. He sent too really thick roots to make the final blow to Miroku but Kagome saw it coming and stood up quickly, held her arms in front of her and focused all her power in her hands and shot a energy ball right at Naraku. It riped right through the roots and blasted Naraku into a tree.
"Let's go!" Kagome yelled at them and ran towards the cars, with everyone following her.
Naraku quickly recovered from the blast and pulled out his gun from the inside pocket of his jacket, and ran after them shooting them. As they ran they dodged the bullets. They jumped in their cars, Sango and Miroku in her car, Kagome and Inuyasha in Inuyasha's car. Naraku right behind them still shooting, as they started their cars bullets went through their back windows. Naraku kept shooting until he couldn't see the cars anymore.
Miroku called Inuyasha's cell phone after he caught his breath.
Inuyasha: Speak.
Miroku: Drive to Sango's house we'll follow you.
Inuyasha: Okay bye.
Miroku: Bye.
Inuyasha stuffed his cell phone back in his pocket and drove to Sango's house.
Sango unlocked the door and led everyone inside. Inuyasha sat on the couch with Miroku in a chair on his left by the window. Kagome in the arm chair in the corner.
"Miroku I'll get some bandages and rubbing alcohol to clean that cut out," Sango went to the bathroom to get the first aid kit.
When she returned she imediately went to Miroku and started working on his wound. There was an awkward silence, while everyone just comprehended what just happened.
"Kagome care to explain what just happened?" Inuyasha asked and looked at Kagome in the corner. In fact everyone turned to her waiting for her answer.
A/N: End of Chapter! I know cliff hanger, I'm sorry. I know I'm not really good at writing action scenes, but I'm working on it. Any suggestions are appreciated but no flames please. I hope you all enjoyed it! Please read and review.
