On with the story!!

Chapter Five: Awaken, Koiishii!

Sango walked towards the hut, her footsteps crunching on the grass. Inuyasha smelled her, and she smelled a bit different, but he paid no heed to it.

But Kagome did.

"Inuyasha! There's a jewel shard coming this way!"

"What?" Inuyasha said, jumping up and sniffing the air twice. He smelled Sango, but no one else. 'Maybe Sango found a jewel shard?' he wondered. He didn't think so. A Shikon no Tama didn't just lie on the floor, waiting for someone to pick it up.

So, then, that must mean...

"Kagome, don't go near Sango!!" Inuyasha shouted, but it was too late. She had run out the hut and out to Sango, going to tell her about the shard.

Then he heard the scream.

Miroku lifted his head and ran out, followed by Inuyasha. They had to run a little bit into the forest, but when they got there, the scene surprised them.

Kagome was on the floor, out of breath. Right next to her was a long scratch where hiraikotsu had been swung. Kagome had tears in her eyes, and Sango was panting a little because of throwing hiraikotsu.

"She... she... attacked me! I don't know why... I just came up to her, and then hiraikotsu... I just barely..." Kagome stuttered. Her tears were falling down her cheeks, and Sango wasn't making any movement at all.

Actually, she looked quite emotionless.

Like Kohaku.

Miroku noticed this immediately. He saw her eyes. He had tried to search them for an explanation, some explanation, but they withheld none. Just cold, emotionless orbs.

All of a sudden, she threw hiraikotsu again, aiming at Kagome and Inuyasha. Inuyasha quickly grabbed Kagome and jumped high into the air.

"Sango! What are you doing!?" Miroku shouted. He got distracted, and Sango had pulled out her katakana.

She had cut him.

He now had a deep gash in his arm, bleeding like there was no tomorrow. Sango had turned to Inuyasha now. He had Tetsuiga out and starting slashing at her, Kagome yelling at him not to hurt her.

Naraku then exposed his aura and scent. Inuyasha wasted no time and found him out.

"Kagome!! Does Sango have a jewel shard anywhere implanted on her?!" Inuyasha shouted.

"Ano... right there, on her back. I think. I don't know! There are about four implanted in her!" Kagome yelled back.

"Naraku!! You baka! Come out here and fight!" Inuyasha yelled.

"Hehehehe..." Naraku laughed. "I am fighting... Only Sango is doing it for me."

Sango then retreated. She walked back to where Naraku stood, him just arriving a few seconds ago. Her eyes were still blank.

It hurt so much.

Inuyasha was standing there, throwing ruthless insults at Naraku. Kagome just quivered, but he couldn't do anything. He couldn't reach Sango through her eyes like they usually communicated. This time he would have to use a different kind of communication.

Naraku saw what he was doing. He saw, but didn't prevent it. He couldn't do a thing, because he knew what he was going to do. He couldn't do anything because he didn't understand it.

Why was he still struggling to get her back? Why? It was so confusing. Was it like him? Was it lust like he felt for Kikyou?

The monk just stood up, slowly walking over to Sango. Sango didn't do anything, because Naraku hadn't commanded her.

'Sango...' Naraku thought. 'Sango. Kill the monk.'

'Hai.' Came her short reply.

She had her blade at the ready, poised to strike. Miroku paid no mind to this. She might attack, she might not. Maybe, just maybe... she wouldn't listen to him. Maybe she would actually turn around and kill that Naraku.

She struck.

Her blade went through his arm, and he let out a yell. His strangled voice tore up his throat and tore Sango out of her daze. She looked at her hands, which were matted with blood. He demon slaying outfit was caked with blood, grass, dirt, and sweat. Then she saw the person who had changed her life, who she thought she might love.

He was on the ground, his arm bleeding so much. It brought tears to her eyes and then she knelt over him.

"H-Houshi-sama... onegai... don't... don't die. P-please..." The tears were rolling down her cheeks.

"San... go! You're back to yourself again. T...that's good... I won't die... we still have to kill Naraku, remember?" He chuckled. He laughed! Right now in a moment of pain.

The baka.

"Houshi-sama. We'll get you better, don't worry. We'll get you back on your feet, so you don't hurt anymore. We'll—," She stopped as a sharp pain erupted in her back. The jewel shards were still in her! But where?!

"I have to get away..." she mumbled as she clutched her head, sitting right next to Naraku. He just stared down at her and smiled.

'That evil...'

Inuyasha was still trying to fight Naraku, to get through his now-up barrier. Even Tetsuiga wouldn't bring it down, along with one of Kagome's arrows.

They had seen Sango do it. They had seen Sango strike Miroku with her Katakana, push the blade through his arm. Watch him fall and heard his scream. So they had reacted. They tried harder than ever to get inside the barrier.

Naraku saw Sango struggle against his evil powers. He saw her shake and tremble as he tried to regain control of her body and skills again.

Sango wouldn't let him. She couldn't. She would kill them. She would kill them all. Her tears fell again, hot and stingy. Miroku was now confused because she was crying next to him one minute, then sitting by Naraku shaking and rocking back and forth.

"Sango... it's okay. Stop now, it's okay." The fake Miroku came again, holding his hand out to her. He knelt down to her and she was surprised.

"Houshi-sama? You're not... hurt?" She said the last word painfully. She knew she caused the wound.

"No. You didn't hurt me! It was all in your head. Come on, don't worry. Naraku turned out to be good! Look," he showed her his hand. "The wind tunnel's gone!!"

But in the real life, Sango was just sitting there, dazed. Her eyes had overcome with a blank look, happy but glazed. It was all in her head.

"What did you do to her?!" Miroku shouted at Naraku, yelling and apparently anguished.

Naraku laughed again and said, "What, the tajai-ya? I put her in a trance, is all. Why, do you have feelings for Sango here? Do you? Well, she obviously does have some for you too. In her dream, she's walking with you."

"What?!" He said, confused.

"Yes... but you hurt her every time. Every time you grope another, or ask to bear another's child. She hurts."

Miroku was shocked. 'No,' he thought. 'She couldn't be. I mean, she always slaps me, yes, but...'

She was jealous.

Naraku laughed again. "Dear monk... you wish to have her? Then come. Come fight me. If you lose, you die. But if you win... the Kazanna is removed and Sango will be yours once again." Maybe.

"Fine! I accept!" Miroku said.

A/N: So it's not the last chapter! It was long though... I hope you guys liked it! It was FOUR pages, and then there's probably going to be what, two more chapters?! Plus an epilogue.

Well I typed it, you review. I better get lots of reviews cause I thought it was a good chappie! Lol.

Ja ne!
