Runaway

Sango woke up in the hut. She felt her head and tried to remember what her dream was about. She dreamt that she was chasing someone, someone that she knew. She was trying to kill it, but she didn't want to kill it. She couldn't remember too much of the dream. When she sat up, she found Inuyasha, Miroku, Kagome, and Shippou starring at her with fear. Had she done something to upset them?

"She's awake," Miroku said.

"Sango, are you feeling ok?" Kagome asked. "You don't want to attack anything, do you?"

"No, why would I, and why are you starring at me like that?" Sango asked as they flinched. "You are all acting weird. Did something happen?"

"You can't remember?" Inuyasha asked. "Sango, you nearly cut Miroku's head off."

"Inuyasha!" Kagome yelled, but it was already out. Sango was the one looking at them in fear. "Sango, do you remember anything that happened yesterday?"

"No, I just remembered being really sick and then…" Sango stopped. She had a feeling that something was happening to her, but she couldn't figure it out. She could tell them about the voices in her head, but then they would think she was crazy. "I'm sorry."

"It's ok. Get some rest," Kagome said as she pulled the blanket over her friend. Kagome was worried about Sango. She looked really upset about something. She hoped that Sango would get over it. Kagome started to talk to the others about the demon slayer, and they were just as concerned. "What do you guys think? Do you really think that a demon is behind this?"

"I don't know," Inuyasha stated. "At first, I thought it might be Naraku, but we know that he's hiding out somewhere building up his powers."

"Maybe it's another demon," Shippou said. Everyone looked at Miroku. He was deep in thought about something. "Miroku, are you ok?"

"I'm fine, Shippou. I'm going to put up a barrier so no demons can get close to Sango. Kagome, maybe you should go watch her. Sango might be ok now. After I finish the barrier, I'll take a look and see if I can find anything wrong with her." Kagome nodded as Miroku and Shippou walked off. Inuyasha decided to stay outside the hut in case anything happened. Kagome went back into the hut and found Sango twisting and turning again. She looked like she was fighting something inside herself. Kagome tried to comfort her, but it didn't help. Then Kagome felt the presence of something. That was when Sango heard the voice.

"Kill her." It was just a whisper, but Sango muttered against it.

"No, don't…make me," Sango uttered.

"Kill her, Sango."

"No, I…won't!"

"Do it! Kill her, Sango! Kill Kagome!" Sango's eyes shot open again and she grabbed her Hiraikotsu. Kagome back into a wall as Sango approached her.

"Sango, what are you doing? Stop!" Sango swung at Kagome and missed. Inuyasha came running in and dashed at Sango, but she threw a smoke bomb at him and caused him to black out. "Inuyasha!" Kagome yelled as Sango made another swing. Kagome flew out of the hut. Sango jumped on top of her with a sword pointed at Kagome neck. Sango was about to make the final blow when Miroku knocked her off Kagome with his staff.

"Sango, try to fight it. Something has a hold of you." Sango ignored Miroku's words and threw her boomerang at him. He dodged it and got out a scripture, but the boomerang hit him as it came back to its master, completely knocking him out. Sango turned back to Kagome with her sword. When she started swinging, she heard the voice again.

"That's enough, Sango. Wake up and realize what you've done." Sango's eyes returned to normal and she snapped out of the trance. She looked around and saw Inuyasha lying unconscious in the cloud of smoke. She saw Shippou trying to wake Miroku up. Then she saw her sword pointed at the frightened Kagome. She couldn't believe this. She had really tried to kill her friends. She did the only thing she could do.

"Kirara!" Kirara transformed and ran to Sango. Sango dropped her Hiraikotsu and jumped on Kirara as they flew away.

"Sango, wait!" Kagome yelled as she got up.

"Kagome, what is going on?" Shippou asked.

"I don't know, Shippou." Kagome starred into the sky. Sango, what has a hold on you?

Sango and Kirara landed in a dense forest. Sango jumped off and started crying. How could I do this to them? What is wrong with me? Am I evil? I can't go back to them ever again. I don't deserve friends. I deserve to die. "Kirara, I want you to go back to Kagome and the others without me. Don't ever look for me." Kirara meowed at her and tried to follow her master, but Sango yelled at her. "Don't you get it? You're free! I don't want you around! I'll just end up hurting you too! Just go!" Kirara flew away as Sango wiped her tears away. She started walking down the road, wondering what would await her next.

Far away, Naraku laughed at Sango's pain. "Sango, don't think I'm done with you. I won't be able to control you anymore, but I can still make life a living hell for you."
