Chapter 3:

They were walking along the forest with Inuyasha and Yukina in front and the others on the back. Shippo was riding a tiny kilala's back. Yukina looked at Inuyasha to see him looking at her they both turned away and blushed. Miroku noticed this and smirked.

"Getting along you two?" he asked and they both turned back and shot him glares that made him twitch and laugh nervously. All of the sudden Yukina stopped and raised her hand for everyone to do the same.

"Why are we-"Sango began but Yukina looked at her sternly and made a shushing gesture. She closed her eyes and they all saw her nose twitch as she sniffed around. They all watched as her eyes snapped open and she groaned and slapped her forehead and growled.

"Please, not him…" she said to herself but they all heard her. They watched as someone appeared with one loud pop and smoke. There in front of them was a youkai that had long red hair in a high ponytail and had green eyes. He was wearing an outfit that looked much like Bankotsu's. He was staring at Yukina and smirking. He had a red rose and held it near his eyes in what some people would call a 'dreamy' stance. Yukina just groaned again and rolled her eyes. The guy walked toward her and stopped in front of her and held up the rose for her to take.

"Yukina…you look even more beautiful then when we first met" he said charmingly in a very miroku way. Everyone looked at a shocked miroku.

"He's good…" miroku said in awe. The guy put the rose behind Yukina's ear and smirked but she glared.

"What the hell do you want, Metemaru?" she asked annoyed and he put a hand on her cheek and everyone watched as Inuyasha fumed and was about to jump between them when Yukina turned to him and gave him a wink, inuyasha looked confused but stayed there. The guy didn't even notice as he carresed her cheek lightly with the back of his hand and Yukina turned back to Metemaru and continued looking cold and glared at him.

"Don't make me ask again, what do you want?" she said and his smirk widened he got a foot away from her face.

"You know very well what I want…Yukina" he said and wiggled his eyebrows suggestively which made everyone gape. Yukina stayed calm and raised an eyebrow.

"And what would that be?" she asked and he licked his lips while his eyes gleamed in a predatory look.

"You…" he breathed and she smirked. She wrapped her arms around his neck and moved so her lips were lightly brushing his ear. She looked at Inuyasha over Metemaru's shoulder and she looked at his horrified expression and winked at his reassuring but he could only gape. She kept her eyes on inuyasha and they all saw her blow into the guy's ear and he shivered. Her gaze never left Inuyasha's as she smirked.

"I want you too…" she said and they all saw the guy grin, but it was gone as soon as it came as Yukina kneeled him in the place where the sun don't shine and he gasped and his knees buckled as he fell down on his knees. She smirked down at Metemaru. "I want you to go to hell" she said and then she grabbed him by the collar and lifted him up with one hand and threw him to the sky and they all watched him go and disappear and looked back at Yukina. She dusted her hands and sighed.

"Hopeless bastard…" she mumbled and then looked to see Inuyasha still confused. "He does it all the time, don't worry about it" she said and waved her hand dismissively.

"Who was that deamon?" Miroku asked as they continued walking but Miroku sped up and was between her and inuyasha.

"That was Metemaru, he thinks he's in love with me because I saved his ass once" she rolled her eyes. "He and his brothers have been chasing after me for years" she said and stretched her arms above her head and her shirt rode up a little and her pants lowered a smidge. Miroku caught sight of something silver outlined with blue written on her back right above her hips. He reached and ran his finger over the top of the letters because her pants were covering the bottom and she stiffened slightly and Sango smashed miroku on the head making him fall to the ground.

"You pervert!" she yelled but miroku held up his hands in defense as everyone else stopped to stared at him.

"No! It's not like that! I didn't touch anything!" he said desperately and Sango raised her hand to punch him but Yukina stopped her midway.

"It's true, he didn't touch my butt" she said and everyone looked confusedly at miroku. He stood up and looked thankfully at Yukina.

"May I see it?" he asked and everyone looked confused as Yukina smiled a bit and nodded she grabbed his hand and held it in hers. She looked at inuyasha with a small smile.

"Me and Miro-kun will be right back, wait here" she said and Inuyasha looked suspicious.

"Want me to go and make sure he doesn't do anything?" Inuyasha asked and she shook her head.

"No, that's okay. We'll stay close though,come on Miro-kun" she said and she dragged miroku from them and behind a bush near them and everyone tiptoed to the bush and poked their heads out to see them both sitting in front of each other on the ground.

"Okay! So what's up?" she asked smiling and he gave her a smile too.

"I was wondering what was written on your back" he said and she nodded to tell him to go on. "May I examine it? It llooks different then Youkai markings or paint" he said and she nodded. She layed down on her stomach and he raised and eyebrow.

"Well, ya gonna look or what?" she asked and he blushed but grinned.

"You're giving me permission?" he asked and she nodded.

"Do what you want" she said and he stood up and moved behind her, he raised the back of her shirt a little and he put a hand on the waistline of her pants blushing slightly. He lowered it until the words were clear and his face turned serious. He ran his hand on top of the words with his brow furrowed.

"Breath

less…

So intense it takes your breath away..." he read the silver-blue words and rubbed her skin. "It does not smudge…what kind of ink is this?" he asked still running his fingers over the words. "This skin is warmer than the rest of your body" he pointed out and she nodded and rested her head on her arms still sprawled out.

"It's a reminder, a demon used his poison to make the words…he said they described me perfectly" she laughed slightly.

"Did it hurt? And why is it warm?" he said and rubbed circles around the words.

"It felt like having lava burn your skin" she said than gave a small moan and miroku paused for a second looking at her with wide eyes. Her eyes were closed and she was relaxed. He smirked and continued rubbing and she hummed.

"You're enjoying this?" he asked teasingly and in the bushes eyes widened.

"Of course I am, your hand is cool and gentle while this scar is hot" she said and he grinned, rubbing the words with both hands.

"You should do this for a living" she said and he chuckled.

"That's nice to know…" his hand moved a little above the words and felt her tense and used muscles there. "You're back is tense" he said and ran his palm over the top of her waist.

"It's what you get for fighting and sleeping sitting against a hard tree" she said and noticed he did not go any higher or lower. "A little bit higher please" she said and he grinned as his hands slipped under the back of her shirt and he massaged her spine and she gave a moan when her bones cracked. "I feel better…" she said and Miroku got up and gave her a hand to help her up and she took it and he hauled her up.

"You can tell me anytime you need a massage" he said and she laughed.

"You're so funny, I trust you miro-kun" she said and he smiled.

"I think you're the first" he said and she threw an arm around his shoulders.

"Miro-kun, you may be a little perverted but you would not take advantage of me. You're too kind and wise!" she said laughing and he joined in and put his arm around her shoulder too.

"You are far too kind! I finally found a good companion! Tell me, do you drink sake?" he asked and she grinned.

"Drank 27 bottles without throwing up once" she said and his eyes sparkled.

"That's more like it! I want you to accompany me next time I drink, this will be a challenge" he said and they both grinned and everyone jumped away from the bushes as they came out.

"Let's go people!" Yukina said and noticed everyone was staring at her. "What?"
