I'm SO sorry people, I just lost interest in this story completely. I'll try and finish it!

Chapter 26-Finale-1

Miroku sat on a large rock while Shippo played around at a distance with Kirara, ice-cold water from the waterfall was constantly being dumped onto his head. He was used to the cold water, but still shivered. He was trying to meditate, however the only thoughts he had were about the days to come.

'Tomorrow's the big day...'

The monk thought anxiously.

'Things are definitely not going as I planned; seems I have a way with bad luck.'

Sango plopped down on a small futon in Kaede's hut, which was now empty with the exception of her and her beloved brother, Kohaku.

"Ahh, it was a long day huh Kohaku? Can you believe it? I'm getting married tomorrow! I don't even know if I'll be able to sleep!"

She said, beaming.

"Yes Sango, it's all very nice and all, but..."

Kohaku looked down,

"Huh? What is it Kohaku?"

She asked.

"Well, I'm still young and I don't know if it's my place to say this, but..."

He sighed.

"What about Inuyasha? Weren't you a... Couple?"

He asked nervously. Sango backed away slightly; she was totally caught off guard.

"W-what? How do you know about that? I thought you didn't remember the times when Naraku was controlling you!"

"I-I don't!"

He stammered, slightly regretting that he asked such a question.

"I just remember the time when you were about to kill both of us, Inuyasha knocked the blade out of your hand. You two were also such a great team, I thought for sure it was you and Inuyasha that was going to be married tomorrow, not Miroku..."

He said. Sango's face put on a sad smile.

"Well brother. You're very observant I'll admit... But Inuyasha and I... All of that was in the past. He... Doesn't even remember anything that we've done as a... Well, "Couple" As you said."

She said, fighting back all the tears that were forming in her eyes. Kohaku looked at his sister, and seeing that she was on the verge of tears, sat next to her, leaning his head on her shoulder.

"I'm sorry sister, I should never have asked... I'm always such a burden, I've caused you so much pain when I was under Naraku's control, and even now..."

He said. Sango shook her head quickly, pulling her brother into a sisterly hug.

"No, don't apologize. Don't you realize? You're all I have left, and when I was starting to lose hope on ever seeing you again, you came back to me. That fills my heart with joy..."

She said, a few tears finally leaking out of her eyes. Kohaku hugged back, smiling slightly.

"Sango, you're the best sister anyone could ever ask for..."

He said quietly. Sango smiled breaking the hug.

"Let's get some rest now for the big day ahead."

She said, laying down on the futon. Kohaku lied down on the other one, saying,

"Sango, I'll try not to ask those kinds of questions again. It really wasn't my place to ask."

Sango shook her head,

"No Kohaku, it's alright. I'm so happy that I finally have someone I can talk openly with. If you have anything that you want to ask, ask!"

She replied. Kohaku nodded with a sleepy smile. Both of them fell asleep soon after.

Inuyasha walked through a particularly blood stained, foul smelling part of the forest, about five miles south from Kaede's village. He looked around, longing to cover his nose; the smell was unbearable, but the smell of this place was familiar. He thought it looked familiar as well. It was a fairly large clearing, there were blood stains everywhere. He took a whiff of the air around him, surprised to find the scent of his own blood lingering in the area, along with Sesshoumaru's. Then it hit him, this was the place Kagome told him about, where he fought with his half brother last. He walked around, seeing the unnaturally large ditches that he assumed were made by either him or his brother. He could also see small trenches in the ground, probably where he had used his windscar. Things were rushing back to him. He went to where the fight had first begun. He crouched down seeing precisely where he'd fallen, when he'd unleashed the backlash waves, everything. Soon, it wasn't so much him scanning the area, looking at the tracks, he was beginning to remember! He soon came to an area where the battle seemed to have turned completely. The little smears and drops of dry blood became puddles, soon becoming pools. He was forced to bring his hand to his face, trying to cover his nose from the stench. It was truly disgusting. He knew instantly that this was when he had transformed into his full demon form. Small bits of Sesshoumaru's clothing were everywhere, shredded to bits, covered with blood. Inuyasha couldn't take much more of the scenery, backing away. He turned, walking out of the area. He made his way back to the village, slamming his back on the wall of a small house. He sighed deeply, sliding down to a crouching position. He closed his eyes, deep in thought.

'Yeah, things are coming back to me.'

The more he thought about it, the more that got revealed. He thought of how Naraku had been killed, the group attacked him head on. Inuyasha's eyes slowly widened as the small stream of memory suddenly became a large river. He had remembered Sango.

'We... We really were mates!'

He thought, rising quickly. He was so sure, yet there was some doubt in his heart.

'How could I have forgotten?'

He grunted, darting off towards Kaede's hut.

'Miroku, how dare he!'

He thought furiously as he tore down the path, his head now filled with thoughts on how he was going to kill Miroku.

Well, short again. Next chapters the last! Wait for it!
