I am so sorry that I haven't updated in like forever, but I was grounded again! Man I hate it when my mom does that to me! But I hope you like this chapter. I worked for it, I will write another chapter as soon as possiple, soReview!

Kagome woke to the sound of flesh hitting flesh. She opened her eyes groggily and looked down to see a fuming Sango hovering over an unconscious Miroku. She rolled her eyes at his stupidity. She jumped out of the tree and landed gracefully on the ground. The still fuming Sango turned and her mood instantly changed.

"Kagome! You're awake! Good morning!" Sango ran up to Kagome and hugged her.

"Good morning Sango, how was your sleep?" Sango let go of Kagome and gave her a sly smirk.

"Not as good as yours." She said as she tilted her head towards the sleeping hanyou in the tree behind Kagome. She turned and saw what Sango was looking at and immediately started blushing.

"H-hey, it's not my fault, he was the one who put me up there with him!" Kagome defended herself. Sango raised an eyebrow.

"And you stayed?" Kagome opened her mouth to say something smart, but found that she had been trapped. Sango smirked in triumph. Kagome scowled.

"Oh shut up!" She muttered. Sango laughed.

"Look at all the pretty colors." Miroku mumbled from the ground, he had swirls in his eyes.

"Stupid monk." They shook their heads sadly. Then they heard a yawn. Both girls turned and saw a sleepy Inu-Yasha rubbing his eyes as he walked towards them.

"Good morning Inu-Yasha." Kagome said brightly.

"Morning." He sat down next to Miroku who was still sprawled out on the ground.

"Stupid monk." He said. Kagome turned to Sango.

"Sango, we need to get supply's today, so we should pack up soon." Sango stood up.

"Yes, we need some food to." Kagome also stood up and went to wake Shippo and Kirara. Inu-Yasha got up to pack a couple of things. Sango kicked Miroku who was still on the ground.

"Wake up you stupid lecher!" She was about to kick him again, but felt something on her backside, this made her kick him harder, but this time in the head.

"Ow! But Sango my dear, it was just so tempting, I couldn't control myself!" He stood up with a huge lump on his head. He touched it and winced.

"Aw. Poor baby, let me kiss it better." Sango leaned over to kiss his bump.

"See, I told you that you would give in to me Sango." Miroku waited for a kiss, but ended up getting whacked in the head, giving him a second bump instead.

"Ow…" Sango rolled her eyes and went back to work, might as well let him sit there in pain for a while.

Kagome slightly shook Shippo.

"Shippo, it's time to go, you have to wake up." Shippo opened his eyes.

"Mommy?" Kagome picked up her half-asleep kit and hugged him.

"Hi sweetie, sleep well?" Shippo rubbed his face against hers.

"Yep." Kagome set him down.

"Ok then, go get ready, we're leaving to get supplies soon." Shippo smiled.

"Ok mommy." He skipped away to help get things ready to leave. Kagome sighed as she walked over to her backpack. She rolled up her sleeping bag and stuffed it in, then she put all the ramen and other sorts of snacks inside. When she was done with everything, she went over to the fire to put it out. She grabbed the pail of water and poured it on, it hissed for a bit, but then died down. She sighed.

"There, all done." She looked around and saw that Miroku had finally got up, and had gone to help Inu-Yasha collect little things that they may have forgotten. Sango was getting her weapon and putting it near Kirara, then she went into the woods to change out of her exterminator clothes. When she came back, she put her clothes in a small leather bag. She turned and faced Kagome.

"Well I'm all down, is everyone ready to go?" She looked around to see that they were.

"Ok then, lets head out." The group all began walking toward a nearby village. Sango stood next to Kagome.

"Kagome, can I ask you something later?" Kagome gave her questioning look.

"Ok, but why?" Sango looked down.

"Oh, just about something." Kagome shrugged.

"Ok then." The group walked for about twenty minutes before they came to a village. Sango and Kagome both went to look for some food, while Inu-Yasha and Miroku both went looking for blankets, just in case they needed them.

Kagome looked through all the stalls of food, she had enough ramen, but she just needed some food to eat during the day, they only ate ramen for lunch. When she found the stall with bread, she handed over a coin from that time. When the lady gave her two loafs of bread Kagome smiled.

"Thank you." She said politely, the woman smiled back.

"Have a nice day." Kagome was a little surprised the woman didn't get scared of her, she then went to find Sango, when she did, she found that she had gotten some cheese, but she also had a big bag of peanuts.

"We should find something else to." She said. Kagome looked around, and then she saw it.

"Over there." She pointed towards an apple stand. She ran over and gave the man three coins. He handed her 6 apples in a box.

"Thank you." She smiled and walked back to Sango. "Here." She tossed a bright red apple towards her. Sango caught it and took a bite.

"This is yummy, we should get back to the boys now." Shippo, who had been sitting on Kagome shoulder, nodded.

"Mommy, can I have an apple?" Kagome grabbed another apple from the wooden box.

"Here you go." She handed it to him; he grinned happily at it and took a bite.

"This is really good mommy!" Kagome giggled at the look on his face. The girls walked back towards the boys.

"Hey guys!" Kagome called as she waved to them. They both turned.

"Hey." Kagome saw that they had gotten two blankets. She handed Inu-Yasha an apple.

"We got some extra goodies, so here." Inu-Yasha looked at the apple in his hand for a while.

"Uh, thanks, I guess." Kagome rolled her eyes.

"Than eat it." Inu-Yasha blushed in embarrassment, but took a bite anyway. This apple was good. "Is it good?" Kagome asked. Inu-Yasha put thumbs up because his face was now stuffed with apple so he couldn't really talk. Sango grabbed two apples from the box and handed each to Kirara and to Miroku. Kagome grabbed the last apple. It was delicious. Sango handed out the cheese, if they didn't eat it now it would rot. Now that they had the supplies that they needed, they could go look for jewel shards. They walked from village to village, but no sign of Naraku or the shards. It was getting late into the evening and the group-except for Inu-Yasha- was getting tired. Soon they stopped to make camp for the night. As Kagome laid her sleeping bag down on the ground, Sango walked up to her.

"K-Kagome, can I talk to you in private?" Kagome remembered that Sango wanted to talk to her about something, she stood up and brushed dirt of her knees.

"Sure, lets go then." They decided to go to a hot spring. When the got there and got in the water Sango spoke first.

"Kagome, I think something's wrong with me." Kagome looked at her.

"How so?" Sango sighed.

"It's Miroku." Kagome smiled, she knew what was coming. "Every time he touches some girl he just met and then asks her to bare his children I get so mad!" Kagome closed her eyes and nodded her head.

"Its called being jealous." Sango fumed.

"I am not jealous of other girls!" Kagome smirked and crossed her arms; eyes still closed.

"Then what is it?" Sango couldn't think of anything else. Kagome smirked. "See, I told you." Sango sighed.

"What's wrong with me?" Kagome giggled.

"Nothing, you're in love, you love Miroku." Sango sat up straight.

"WHAT!" Sango couldn't believe what her best friend had just said.

'I do not love Miroku! It's just insane! It's Miroku, the lecherous monk who gropes people every chance he can!' She stared wide-eyed at the smiling Kagome.

"Has you're stomach been doing flips around him?" She asked. Sango nodded.

"Yes."

"How about blushing lots?" Sango nodded again.

"That to." Kagome grabbed a towel and got out of the spring.

"Then it's settled, you love Miroku." Sango couldn't believe it.

'Me, in love with Miroku? That's impossible!' But Sango still kind of thought Kagome was right.

"Oh god…" She did, She loved him! She couldn't believe it!

"Oh Sango, it's ok to love him." Sango also got out and wrapped a towel around her.

"B-but it's Miroku." Sango just couldn't picture her and Miroku being together. Kagome giggled again.

'Poor Sango.' Kagome smiled.

"So? Who cares if it's Miroku?" Sango sighed in defeat. Kagome dried her body off and put on a black tank top with flames on the bottom, and then she put on some tight blue jeans and put her hair up in a ponytail.

"What about him touching other girls? I don't think he wants to be with just one girl." Sango dressed in her normal clothing.

"That's just Miroku, and he's always near you, and always telling you that you are the only one for him, all the time it's stuff like that." Kagome said.

"But I don't know Kagome." Sango said worriedly.

"Just keep an eye on him for a while, then you'll see." Kagome assured her.

"If you say so Kagome." The two walked back towards the camp. Miroku looked up and smiled at Sango, she smiled back.

"Hello dear Sango, how was you bath?" Sango smiled.

"It was nice since you weren't there." Kagome giggled at this.

"I would never spy on you sear Sango, I always have a reason for being there." Miroku pointed out.

"Like what?" Miroku looked thoughtful for a moment.

"Like protecting you from danger, or making sure your all right." Sango rolled her eyes.

"Thank you for being so nice as to do that, but I think I can handle myself." Kagome giggled again.

'Well, ya! She's a demon exterminator for crying out loud!' Sango sat down next to Kagome.

"Man, it's hard dealing with a perverted monk every day and night!" Kagome nodded.

"But what about me? I have to deal with a guy who acts like a ten year old kid!" Sango agreed; Inu-Yasha did act like a baby sometimes. Like when he would argue with Kagome when she wanted to go home, and then pout while she was gone.

Inu-Yasha came up and sat on the other side of Kagome.

"What are you two talking about?" He asked suspiciously. Kagome giggled.

"Oh, nothing important." Inu-Yasha rolled his eyes.

"Whatever." He sighed.

'I will never understand women.' He thought as he got up and went to find a tree to sleep under. Kagome made a small place for her sleeping bag on the ground; she was really tired from walking all day. She yawned and went to sit next to the fire Miroku had made; the bright flames licked the air. Kagome thought that it was very calming to be sitting there next to the fire. She really wanted to find Naraku and kill him, she knew that everybody else wanted to too.

'Naraku is so evil, how dare he ruin innocent people's lives!' She looked towards Sango. 'He has taken away her family and village, and her poor brother.' She then looked at Miroku's hand. 'He has cursed Miroku so he will eventually get sucked in.' She then looked in Inu-Yasha's direction. 'And he had framed Inu-Yasha for something he did not do.' Kagome knew that it was going to be hard, but they will beat him! But for know she was going to sleep. She got into her sleeping bag and sat up in it.

"Goodnight everyone." She smiled to the group.

"Goodnight Kagome." Miroku and Sango said at the same time.

"Feh." Was all Inu-Yasha said. Kagome rolled her eyes.

'Is feh even a word?' She thought. She sat there for a moment thinking about it, then shook her head, and lay down. 'Oh well, I don't really care.' With that last thought, she soon fell asleep.

He watched from the shadows, his eyes never left her body. He had hidden his scent so they would not smell him. His red eyes glowed in the darkness as he smirked.

'I will get that body, it is almost perfect! After I consume her I will heal faster than ever, and my ability to shape shift will become stronger!' His evil mind began its plan to steal the young demon girl away from Inu-Yasha.

'Kikyo was such a waste, I am so happy I left her back there, she was driving me nuts!' Naraku grimaced a little at the memory of the dead miko. (See, even bad guys are scared of that clay pot!) He took one last look at the girl, and was gone.

'But after I have that girl, Kagome I think it was, I will be even more powerful than before!' He watched as she lay down and go to sleep. 'Soon you will be mine.' With one last look, he disappeared.

Ha! There, are you happy now, I'm done chapter 15, so ha! Cough Sorry, I was a little bit to happy. Well I'm done for now, but I will update as soon as possible. Review!
