Miroku stood still as a ray of sunlight shined on his face. The afternoon breeze washed over him and wave of peace flew around him. He looked beyond him to see a beautiful valley that shone with new life. Butterflies danced on the flowers and bees buzzed around for pollin. 'I wish the world would just be as beautiful as this place.' A hand touched his shoulder but he didn't move. He new the warmth of that hand: it was Sango.
He breathed deep and put his hand on her's, "Sango, I wonder if the world will change after the jewel has been purified. I also wonder if Inuyasha will still go along with becoming a full-fledged demon." He gripped her hand and then moved his other to her bottom.
Sango wasn't listening to him, she grabbed onto Miroku's shoulder for balance while bending over to pick a bothering stick out of her sandal. Then, she felt his gropping hand. She gripped the hand that was on top of hers and cracked his fingers.
"Owe!" Miroku jumped away, causing Sango to lose her balance and fall down the cliff they were on. "Sango!"
"Sango!" Shippo yelled looking at her body distance as she rolled down. "Miroku!"
Miroku grabbed Shippo and ran to the path that would lead them to the bottom of the cliff. 'It's all my fault, if I hadn't of groped her... she-she wouldn't have fallen down! I hope she's okay. If not, I'll hate myself forever.'
Sango rolled down with skill: gaurding her head and face while seeing ahead of her as she fell. Before she him the bottom she was hit on the head with a log. She finally reached the hard ground and dizziness overcame her. She could smell a familiar scent but she just couldn't put it down. She glanced up at the one above her and saw ocean blue eyes; she then fell unconscious.
^.~
Naraku looked up at the blackened sky (thanks to his stupid stinky miasma!) and thought of Inuyasha and his awaited death. He smirked and chuckled, 'Inuyasha, you'll soon die, no matter what you do. There is no way you can get Tetsusaiga's essence, the key to controlling your demon blood....' He opened his enclosed fist and stared at the pink essence musingly. 'What a pitiful soul: needing a sword to keep him sane. How pathetic.'
Kagura looked at him from the gate of the castle. 'What could he possibly be thinking? He should know by now that Inuyasha's companions are headed this way to get that "thing" back. Naraku, you really never think things through. I hate you with all the blackness of my heart. My heart- it's in your hands. Damnit...'
"Kagura, come here." Naraku spoke loudly, not caring to look at her.
Kagura hesitated but then flew towards him, "What is it you want now, Naraku?" She said this with coldness in her voice; she couldn't have said it more with hatred.
Naraku ignored her tone and threw the essence to Kagura. "Give this to Kikyo. She'll know what to do with it."
"Naraku! You tried to kill that woman and now you want me to give this to HER. She'll just ignore me and try to kill me." Kagura pointed out to him.
"Well, then leave it somewhere that when the time comes, she'll find it. When she does then she'll destroy Inuyasha for me and she wont even notice." Naraku smirked evily and stood. "Kikyo will kill Inuyasha, but with my intentions! I can't wait for the day to come when Inuyasha losses his mind forever!"
Kagura shook her head and stuffed the bottle into her kimono. "I don't know what you're planning Naraku, but I hope it doesn't blow up in your face." She pulled out her feather and then flew away.

"Sango!" Miroku called as sango saw herself fall from down the cliff.
She saw as her falling form mouthed his name but her voice was gone. "What's happening. That's-that's me! And Miroku is- he's crying." She saw as two tiny tears trickled down Miroku's face as her body rolled down. "Miroku!" And her voice finally came.
*
"Ahh-," Sango moaned as tiny pains tickled through her body. She finally recognized the scent from before. It was the scent of wovles. She got up slowly and looked around her. She was still in the woods but in a small cave. A small fire was burning and a wooden bowl was filled with fresh water. She happily took it to her mouth and drank from it. It was as cool as the air around her. It hit her that she was no longer with Miroku or Shippo, but alone in a cave.
"So you've finally woken up." A strong voice came from the opening on the cave.
Sango put down the bowl and looked at the man standing at the entrance. "Kouga?" His image became clearer as he walked into the cave more. He was carrying two rabbits over his shoulder, "When, what? I..."
"Yeah, I'm the one that found you. You took a beating from falling down that cliff. But trust me, you're not the first one to fall: many of my men fell down there millions of times." Kouga dropped the rabbits and began stripping them of their fur; when he got through with both of them, which he did very fast, he cleaned them out.
Sango stared at this and wondered exactly why Kouga saved her and nursed her wounds. She tried to ask while he was gutting the rabbits but she didn't really get to ask until he started cooking them. "Kouga, why did you- save me? I mean, I do stay with Inuyasha a lot and I know you two hate each other, so.."
"Well, you're Kagome's friend. I can't hurt her by letting one of her friend die in the wood by some demon that might come upon her." He smiled and went to turning the rabbits.
"Oh, Um.." She was going to say more but thought that the conversation should end there before she told him about Inuyasha going away with Kagome to her time for a while. 'I wonder how'd he take that.' Sango picked up the bowl and before she took a sip of the water she said, "Thank you, Kouga."
^.~
Miroku finally reached the bottom and began combing the area for Sango. After a few hours he reached a conclusion that she wasn't there and something might have happened to her.
He fell to his knees and pounded his fist in the dirt. "Damn my lechery!" He grabbed his hair and felt like pulling it all out. Instead, he ran his fingers through it and sat on his rear. "Sango, please. I hope none a terrible fate has fallen upon you."
"Miroku! Over here!" Shippo's distanced voice called. "I've found something!"
Miroku scurried to his feet and ran towards Shippo's calling voice, when he got there he saw the little fox huddled over something. "What've you found Shippo?"
Shippo leaned back and showed the foot prints and tiny blood stains in the dirt. "It looks like Sango was carried off somewhere. You see, over here..." Shippo pointed to a sandy area where the dirt and plants had been moved and flatened. "Sango must have fell here. "Now.." Shippo pointed a trail of foot prints coming towards her. "Whoever got her..." He then pointed to Sango's footprints and saw as they disappeared. "...the person must have gotten her to her feet and then carried her. Then the footprints lead off that way. Also..." Shippo was quite the detective; he stood up and looked at the direction the prints where going. "I don't know exactly who got her but I can still smell the trail of it's scent."
"Then lets go. Hopefully, whoever has her, hasn't harmed her." Miroku picked up Shippo again and followed his directions in a quick pace.
^.~
Sango finished her portion of the rabbit and then tried to rise, but Kouga eased her down.
"You're still weak from the fall, move too much and you'll pass out." There was truth in Kouga words, for Sango did feel very tired and weak. "Plus, it's getting late and it's not wise to go out at night around here, the weirdest demons pass by here because of all the evil in this region."
Sango didn't want to pry but then she asked, "Then why are you here?"
Kouga stood and looked out at the orange sky. "I smell Naraku somewhere around here. I still want my revenge."
Sango widened her eyes in suprise and looked at his back. "Kouga, I'm really sorry about you're comrades and how Naraku decieved you. He did the same to all of us: Miroku's right hand, Inuyasha and Kikyo, and him killing my kin and stealing the life of my brother so he can use him for his own purposes. We've been in fights with all Naraku's evil plans and incarnations. We all want one thing: to see him die for all the wrong he's caused to us and everyone he's ever come in contact with..." Sango looked down at her hands and closed them in fists. "Damn you Naraku."
Kouga turned and looked at Kagome's friend, sitting with so much pain. "So- looks like you and the others aren't that different from me." He walked back in and put his hand on her shoulder, "Hey, don't worry, we'll all be able to have our revenge." He removed his hand and leaned against the cave wall across from her.
Sango thought of something and asked him, "Kouga, I know you don't like Inuyasha, but will you please help us find Naraku and get back Inuyasha's sanity."
Kouga looked at her with a confused expression, "His sanity?"
"Yes- Naraku has taken the essence from Inuyasha's sword. That essence keeps Inuyasha from turning into an uncontrollable demon, bent on killing until he is killed. If Inuyasha doesn't get this back, everytime his life is in danger he'll transform and lose his mind even more."
Kouga lowered his head and thought about what she'd just said. After a short while he looked up with a smile. "I'll save the mutt for Kagome's sake, and you too. You seem to care a lot for Inuyasha." Kouga leaned back against the cave and closed his eyes, "Only for Kagome and you..." He muttered.
Sango looked at him with questioning eyes, 'Why is he being so nice to me. I mean he'd be really cold-hearted about me asking him for a favor. Especially the favor for his help in saving Inuyasha.' Sango gave up on it and laid back down. Sleep started to overcome her when Kouga jumped up.
"Someone's comming." He held up his fist and stood at the entrance of the cave.
Sango could hear two distant voices she recognized them and told Kouga to ease down.
Moments later Miroku and Shippo walked in to see Sango sitting up on the cave floor and Kouga leaning against the entrance of the cave.
"Sango? Kouga?" Shippo and Miroku said in unison.
^.~
Kikyo returned to the temple after a day a picking herbs in the forest. She placed the herbs on a shelf and dropped her bow and quiver of arrows on the floor. She turned back to her herbs when she saw a pink light. She then turned back to were she put her arrow and saw the bottle full of pink light.
"What is-" She concentrated and saw two faces flash in her mind: Inuyasha and Naraku. "This is a strong energy. It has a strong aura; its effect must be very powerful." An image of Inuyasha turning demon flashed before her. "What!?" She felt a chill overcome her body. "This is- I see." She placed the bottle in her kimono and smirked. "You think so low of me don't you Naraku."
Kagura saw Kikyo place the bottle away, "I've done my part, now she has to do her's." Kagura then disappeared into the woods.

That's it, yeah, it's not the best of chapters but these are just fillers leading up to the climax.
NO NO NO NO NO Kouga doesn't have a thing for sango, he's just showing compassion, and + I wouldn't let him have her over me!
