When Kagome woke up it was light outside and the sun poured through. She opened her eyes. Her entire body ached. It felt like she'd been hit by a truck then it went into reverse and ran her over again. She moaned and tried to sit up.
She was in a large T-shirt only.
What the heck happened to me?! I wasn't drunk was I? She gulped at the thought. Am I still a virgin? She shivered at this thought.
Images of the nightclub, a silver haired man, Sango with another guy, walking on the street, someone following her, and attacking her. She remembered being really scared and a purple light then something coming after her. She vaguely remembered someone with strong and safe arms carrying her, but it was blurry.
Great, am I still having nightmares? She shook the thoughts from her head and tried stretching her limbs. She was really sore. She looked up and studied the room. She wasn't in her room either.
"Where the heck am I?!" Kagome said aloud as she glanced around the room. Everything was black or red. This was rather creepy in her current situation.
She placed a hand on her chest and took a deep breath as she felt the bandage and three gashes on her chest.
Alright, I'm in a strange house.
In strange clothes.
I'm injured.
"EEK!!"
Inuyasha was enjoying the ramen when his ears picked up a squeak from his room where Kagome was staying. He looked back at his ramen and whimpered as his mind ratted at him.
She's probably hungry you know. It's been two days now.'
"So? She can get something on her own to eat. She's a big girl."
'But are you actually going to let her out on her own to get something to eat?'
Inuyasha growled.
"No, probably not with those injuries, but if she starts screaming I'm not doing anything you hear?"
'Yeah, yeah, I'm you remember?'
"I hate talking to myself."
'They say it's the first sign of insanity.'
"Just shut up, alright? I'll feed her."
Inuyasha finished his ramen and heard her walking around upstairs in his room. 'hmm. I didn't expect her to be up already.' He thought as he sacrificed one cup of Instant Ramen Noodle Soup™ for her.
Kagome had calmed down a little. She felt good, well good enough to walk over to the dresser and find something to wear. The jacket she'd been covered in wasn't enough. She looked through the drawers and found T- Shirts. She picked one that said 'I'm not your doggy, shoo.' And slipped it on. She also found a drawer with boxers and pulled out the smallest and cleanest pair she could find and pulled them on. They were loose, but they still fit.
Cautiously Kagome made it downstairs and followed the sound of boiling water. She peered into the kitchen and saw a guy cooking something on the stove.
"Um...excuse me, where am I?" She asked shyly and scared. Inuyasha looked up and blushes a rather deep shade of maroon. Seeing her in his clothes sure gave him a shock. His mind wandered and he felt like slapping himself for allowing Miroku to corrupt his mind. He calmed his body and kept his composure.
"morning." He said calmly as his heart started to slow it's marathon pace. "I made you Ramen. Here. Eat." He said pouring the soup into a bowl and placing it on the table.
"You still haven't answered my question. Where am I?"
"You're at my place."
"And that would be where?"
"Here."
"Fine. Who are you?"
"Me."
Kagome fumed. This wasn't going anywhere.
Miroku woke very sore and on the floor. This was new. Usually after going to a club he would wake up with some girl in his arms snuggled on the bed. He tried to remember where he was and felt a large bump on his head.
"ow..." he complained and gently felt his head. He was lying on the floor next to the bed in a hotel room. He sat up and looked on the bed. There was a girl there sure enough, but she was sleeping with a rather large boomerang clutched tightly to her chest as though she could kill someone at anytime in her sleep. He also noticed that the slight dent in the boomerang was the same shape as the bump on his head. "That women..."
Sango stirred and Miroku cringed and hit the floor and listened to her roll over as the boomerang came to a thunk on the bed and where Miroku had just been sitting up.
"phew."
Miroku tried to remember her name. "Sanyo? Sanho? Sanro? Sanfo?"
'Sango?' His mind offered.
"That's the one! Sango!" Miroku sat up and eased around the boomerang. "Excuse me Sango? It's 11 o'clock." Sango stirred and looked at the leech that hovered at the end of her bed.
"HENTAI!!" She screamed and thunked him with the boomerang and he collapsed to the floor. She sat up and stretched and looked better at him. "Oh hey, Miroku, it is about time you woke up. Sorry about the bump on your head. It knocked you out for two days. I had to take care of you."
"So then why was I on the floor?" He asked rubbing his second bump.
"Well you started to feel me up the first night in your sleep so I knocked you completely out and you didn't wake up so you stayed on the floor."
"Oh."
"Sorry about that." She added with sympathy.
"No, no, it's alright." He said and stood. "Have you heard anymore from Inuyasha?"
"You mean the bastard who's keeping Kagome at his place and not telling me where he is and probably getting his way with her while she's unconscious? That dog?" She said her voice downright scary.
"Actually he's only half dog, but if you want I can take you over there and you can see her if you want." Miroku said as he took off his shirt.
"Yeah, that be- what are you doing?!" Sango said backing further away from him on the bed.
"I've been in the same clothes for 2 days. I smell. I'm going to take a shower."
"But I want to go see Kagome now!" She said in a baby voice. Miroku sighed then walked over to her.
"Hey what are you- eew.... You DO smell. Go take a shower." She said pinching her nose.
"Will you accompany me, malady?"

smack
"I take that as a yes?"
smack
"Oh fine, be that way..." Miroku sniffled and walked slouching into the bathroom as Sango heaved and twitched clasping her boomerang tightly and poised to kill the hentai.
Inuyasha was annoyed. Kagome was sitting on the chair elbows on the table and staring at him as he read the paper, not moving an inch. Usually this wouldn't bother him, but it had been almost 2 hours.
"Alright! Just stop and leave me alone!" He barked at her. (A/N: no pun intended. Woof woof!)
"Just answer my question!" She barked back and Inuyasha growled then grinned.
"You're kind of cute when you're angry." He snickered as she puffed her cheeks out at him.
"My god! You are so immature!" She said standing up quickly, knocking over the chair and in the moment tripping her as well.
"yeeeeep!" She yelped as Inuyasha leapt and caught her around the waist, his face inches from hers.
Insert Classic bubbly-blushing-fast-heartbeat moment here as Inuyasha holds Kagome.

"You're breath smells like chicken." Kagome proclaimed.
"Best flavor of ramen yet. And yours is getting cold." Inuyasha answered bringing her up to standing position. Their pervious fight was forgotten as they now argued over the best flavor of ramen.
"Chicken!"
"Beef!"
"Chicken!"
"Beef!"
"ARG! You annoying wrench! All I have is chicken!" Inuyasha shouted at her.
"But I want Beef." She said making a puppy dog face. Inuyasha twitched. She was only human, but damn could she seem to cross species with that face!
"FINE! We'll go to the store tomorrow and get Beef alright?" He compromised not feeling up to shopping with her today. She beamed.
"Thanks Inuyasha. I'm going to go take a shower now." She said and walked upstairs. Inuyasha sighed.
"This is going to be a long week..."
Meanwhile in Naraku's territory:
Naraku sat on the floor against a wall in a dark room staring into nothingness when someone spoke beyond the reed door.
"My Lord. We have just found Hayaineko, the cat demon and he was dead along with his goons. It seemed as if they were burned to a crisp by some great outward power. We do not know the cause yet, but we have picked up that he was probably trying to rape a girl at the time then it happened."
"So, The Shikon no Tama has finally come out of hiding and it is in the possession of a young girl. This will prove to be very interesting. I want you to find this girl and bring her to me unspoiled. Do you get it?"
"Yes my Lord." He spoke and departed through the shadows.
"This is good. Very good..." He chuckled to himself as his eyes glowed red and power hungry. "Muwahahaha..."
