Ok well, here's the 411. I only update one chapter of one story a day. Normally according to how much I know about the story, or the popularity of it. Since you guys liked this one, I'll update it today, and do another tomorrow. ENJOY!

---Chapter 2: The Name is Inuyasha---

Sango was hanging up her and Miroku's wet clothes when Kagome came stomping back, "Kagome? You okay?"

"Some dog boy was stalking me and left without even telling me who he was!"

Shippo flew out of the hut and smiled brightly, "He found you?!"

Kagome fell down and looked at the kitsune with more than just a confused look on her face, "What the-"

Sango laughed nervously, "I forgot to tell you, we met someone while you were gone. His name is Shippo. He's really sweet really"

"Right, of course. So, um, Shippo, you knew that man who was following me?"

Shippo nodded, "He's really a jerk, but he seems to be interested in you. I don't know why...Inuyasha's never told me!"

"Inuyasha..." The name echoed in her mind and she tilted her head, "I've never seen him in my life..."

Shippo shrugged and walked over to Miroku and whispered, "Why are you being so quiet?"

Miroku leaned over and whispered back, "Sango's a bit upset with me. It seems I've somehow managed to anger her once again..."

Shippo smiled, he was glad he would enjoy this group much more than Inuyasha. All he ever did was bonk him on the head! And that was never fun. But this group, this group was fun to be with. Miroku was always getting in trouble by Sango. Kagome seemed really nice and didn't yell at him. Yea, this place was way better than with Inuyasha.

Inuyasha walked through the forest, his hands crossed inside his sleeves, like he usually did as he walked. Stupid girl...Even without Shippo I got caught. That can't be right! I didn't move...did I? Gah, who cares...I just need to go back and watch her some more...He continued through the forest, heading back to the village. So what if he WAS spying on her? Not like he was gonna kill her or anything!

Sango and Miroku were sitting next to each other as Kaede used a stick to push the logs in the fireplace. Sango scooted away every few minutes, and Kagome couldn't help but laugh.

Sango twisted her face slightly, "Miroku..."

"Yes?"

"Would you mind NOT touching me?"

"I'm sorry, I have no idea what you're talking about"

Again, he reached over and she scooted away. Kaede sighed and looked at Kagome, "You know, it amazes me how ye can keep these two around and still keep your training going correctly."

Kagome just smiled and spoke with joy, "It's because of them that I CAN do it all. They're just so much fun! And such a cute couple."

Sango blushed and shook her head. Miroku suddenly had a plastered grin on his face like no other.

Shippo leaned forward, "You two ARE together?"

At the same moment, a "YES!" and a "NO!" came from the two.

Sango and Miroku then looked at each and both spoke again in sync, "EXCUSE ME?!"

Sango jumped up and glared, "We are NOT together Miroku!"

Noticing her fully flushed face, Miroku smiled, "Of course Sango, how could I forget?"

Kagome was enjoying all this until she felt something and stood up as well. She looked towards the door, staring at it intently.

Sango and Miroku seemed to have saying the same things down perfectly, "Something wrong?"

Kagome's face suddenly went serious, "Something's outside...and...its some form of demon. But I can't sense it that well. Whatever it is, we gotta go get it!"

Sango and Miroku grabbed their weapons, Shippo hid next to Kaede and Kagome ran outside. She saw the same white-haired half demon standing in front of her.

"You!"

His eyes widened and he ran off. Kagome ran after him as fast as her legs could carry her, "WAAAIITT!"

A rock stood in her path. A small, pebble of a rock, stopped her. Her foot hit it and she flew into the air and hit the ground with a thud. She spoke curses to the dirt before looking up at the red and white thing dashing through the trees. She screamed.

"IINUUYAAAASHAAA!!"

Inuyasha paused when he heard her yell his name, but ressumed running. He made it deeper into the forest, cursing that he was caught again. He thought he hid his demon side well. He'd have to try harder. And one other thing hit his mind. How did she know his name was Inuyasha?

Ok. I tried my best. Remember that I wrote this like two years ago on a website of mine. So editing it to sound better isn't the easiest thing in the world. BUT, I try. So review please whether you liked it or not -laugh-
