Chapter6:
If my shame spills our worth across this floor
Then tonight, goodnight, I'm Burning Star IV
Only I don't even think of you
No, I don't want to think of you anymore
Goodnight, tonight, goodbye
Goodnight, tonight, goodbye
-Coheed and Cambria
Good Apollo I'm Burning Star IV: Vol. 1
(P)Sango slowly and painfully gathered herself to her knees. She saw Miroku holding a badly bleeding wound on his shoulder with one hand and attempting to rub sake out of his eyes with the other. Seeing him preoccupied and disadvantaged, she raised a fist to strike. Suddenly, she realized she didn't want to kill him as much as she wanted answers to why he had betrayed her. She leaped on him with her last ounce of energy and pinned Miroku to the ground.
'Why?' she said, the pain in her stomach and the sobs hitching in her throat choked her voice down to a hoarse whisper.
'Sango, I'm sorry...' he answered quietly.
'I DON'T CARE IF YOU'RE SORRY!' she yelled and immediately began barking coughs. 'I made you sorry, Miroku! I want to know why! Why?'
But Miroku didn't answer. He was unmoving and lifeless.
(Fb) Kagura fired the wind blades from her fan, deliberately attacking Sango, even though Sango was merely a bystander in this match between the incarnation of Naraku and Inuyasha. The hanyou leaped to deflect the projectiles, but even his lightning speed was too little. Sango heard the laugh of Kagura, then Kagome screaming for her to look out. The blades were coming fast and she had no time to dodge them. A purple blur moved in front of her, followed by the horrible sound of rending flesh. A spray of blood hit her in the face and she suddenly knew what happened.
'NO!' she screamed, and the Deja Vu hit her like a hammer. She held him in her arms shouting to him 'I won't let her take you!' She felt violently ill when she realized that by "her" she didn't mean Kagura or Tashiko, she meant Sango. She meant herself. In shock, she somehow managed to pick him up. She had to get him to help.
