Chapter,2: Arising problems

"So just what did you and lady Kagome get into a fight about," Miroku asked later that night as they laid outside staring at the sky. The stars had just started appearing, but one sniff of the air told the half breed that it was going to rain soon.

He let out a sigh and wondered if he could just ignored Miroku. He was asking way to many questions tonight.

"Why do you care? It's none of your business," Inuyasha answered with a snort.

Miroku was tempted now to beat Inuyasha aside the head with his staff.

"Why do you think? If you and lady Kagome are at each others throats again, that means we'll no doubt not be searching for the jewel shards for awhile. If that's the case I'd like to go on my own way for a while."

This seemed to spark Inuyasha's interest a bit. Miroku never went anywhere unless a pretty woman or his wind tunnel was concerned.

"Why? Going to try and find a mate? Want to get slapped again? I can do that."

Miroku rolled his eyes standing up, staff tightly grasped in his hand.

"No Inuyasha, I'm not going to find a 'mate."

"Hmm…wind tunnel?"

This subject Inuyasha knew no to joke with. That was a very good thing, because Miroku had just got done silently vowing to himself to beat Inuyasha senseless if he did.

"No, well sort of."

"Huh?"

Inuyasha noticed the stars had vanished now as the clouds started to come in.

"Inuyasha, you know that sooner or later this curse is going to kill me," Miroku stated firmly holding his hand up his eyes never leaving Inuyasha's. Inuyasha nodded as they made their way through the darkness and to the village. "Well, if I keep waiting around like this, that's what's going to happen. You and lady Kagome can fight all you want, but I'm on borrowed time. If you two had a really big fight where she won't be here for awhile, please tell me so I can go and search on my own."

An odd silence fell between them after Miroku finished. Inuyasha had not realized how selfish him and Kagome had been every time they fought causing the search to be put on hold.

"Hey look….I'm sorry," Inuyasha muttered head bowed slightly. "Never really gave that any--WHAT THE HELL!" Inuyasha had stopped inches from walking over a steep cliff. "I don't remember walking up a cliff to get at our village guard posts!"

"Inuyasha, calm down."

Miroku looked around, but it was pointless he couldn't see a thing. "Hey, why don't you see if you can smell any of the villages familiar scents?"

Inuyasha nodded and after backing away from the cliff took in some sniffs of air. The only thing he recognized was the scent of rain.

"No use monk. All I smell is rain. I can't pick up a single smell that belongs to the village."

"Hmm…has this ever happened before? Like if it's going to storm?"

Inuyasha folded his arms bringing both hands into his hinezumi koromo sleeves.

"Well I promise you it's going to storm, but no. I've never had this problem before."

"We should find shelter."

"And just where are we going to find this shelter in this kind of darkness," Inuyasha asked sarcastically.

"Do you a better idea?"

"Well no--"

"Than come on."

Before Inuyasha could protest any more Miroku grabbed him by the arm and started walking into the opposite direction of the cliff. The half-breed kept trying to pull away, but this time to his annoyance, Miroku proved to be the stronger.

They walked on for some time, blindly, trying their best not to trip or run into anything. Inuyasha was just about to protest when Miroku screamed and his grip on the half dog demon's arm tightened.

Inuyasha quickly pulled away, or tried, pulling Miroku with him.

"What the heck was that for!" Inuyasha demanded death glaring Miroku, even though it was pointless to do so.

"Y, you saved me..," Miroku breathed on his knees now trying to catch his breath.

"Wait…don't tell me. We've been going in circles," Inuyasha stated twitching a bit. He was ready to scream.

"No…I think it's worse than that," Miroku said looking around for something to him him up, finding Inuyasha only, and pulling.

"Hey!"

"Thank you. And I think it's much worse than going in circles…because somehow I think we ended up on an island….surrounded by cliffs."

"WHAT!"

"Have you seen Miroku or Inuyasha," Sango asked Kaede as it started to rain. She hadn't seen either of them sense dinner and when she'd gone to relieve them of their positions they were no longer there.

"Nay I have no seen Miroku nor Inuyasha, why does thou ask?"

"Well," Sango walked over to the fire Kaede was sitting in front of and also took a seat. She didn't want to worry Kaede. She figured if anything they had both gone and went on a walk, or possibly Inuyasha had run off and Miroku had gone to retrieve him. Still, it was raining and she could not help, but worry at least a bit.

"Well I went to take over their spots as guards, but when I got there, they weren't."

"I'm sure it's nothing. Inuyasha probably walked off muttering about his and Kagome's last fight causing Miroku to have to go after him."

"I hope that's all it is."

The demon slayer smiled a bit seeing Kirara come running in and shaking her fur dry, Shippo running in after.

"We looked everywhere. I didn't see Miroku or Inuyasha," Shippo said running over to the fire and warming himself up happily. "Mmm."

Kirara quickly followed climbing onto Sango's lap and resting. Without even thinking Sango's hand came down and she started stroking Kirara gently. Kirara purred at this closing her eyes curling into a tighter ball.

"Yeah," Sango smiled more, "I'm sure you're right and they're just fine."

"We are definitely not good," Inuyasha muttered as they walked through the trees completely drenched. "Just how did we get here anyway!"

"For the hundredth time Inuyasha, I do not know."

"Yeah well someone should," he went on complaining.

It was taking all of Miroku's will power not to scream out and to beat Inuyasha down where he stood. He'd have to find Inuyasha first, the only thing visible being the lightning that streaked the sky, but it'd be worth it.

He cared for Inuyasha deeply, but sometimes even he could only put up with his whining for so long. He wish he had a gag, but figured in the log ruin, it was probably better that he didn't.

"Hey look."

Miroku's thoughts were interrupted and he brought his attention to whatever it was that Inuyasha was trying to say.

"What?"

No sooner had the words left his mouth though did he notice that he could see here. The area in front of them was like a normal night, it wasn't even storming in this part, and right in the middle of it was a castle. Not just any castle, but Naraku's.

"Lord Sesshomaru," Jaken screamed out running around Rin following close behind. "Lord Sesshomaru! Where are you?"

Sesshomaru ignored the screams coming from his two followers. It wasn't because he was being mean or anything of that sort, rather he was trying to keep them safe.

"Seems they're looking for you 'Lord Sesshomaru'," A man with long blue hair said laughing. He looked down at the dog demon smirking.

Sesshomaru did nothing, said nothing, just continued to sit there on the ground, vines wrapped around his waist and wrists. The dog demon had been walking to wherever he wished as usual, and out of no where this demon with blue hair and green eyes had stopped him.

Before he was to sure of what was going on, he'd noticed that his waist and wrist had vines wrapped around them, vines with very poisonous thorns.

He shifted a bit so his weight wasn't to much on a thorn that was almost breaking the skin on his side. He shifted his gaze over to the demon wondering really why he'd been stripped of his shirt and such, and was on his knees in his pants only.

"Are you enjoying yourself," The silver haired demon asked quietly so neither Rin nor Jaken would hear him.

"Quite," he answered with a smirk and stood up. "My master is going to be very happy with this. Now we have all the blackmail we could ever wish for."
