Chapter 6: Confessions
Miroku hadn't woken up since then. Sango couldn't eat, smile, talk or even sleep knowing that Miroku was hurt.' It's all my fault.' Sango thought as tears slipped down her face. Kirara hopped upon her lap and licked her hand, trying to comfort her.
She picked her up and hugged her. Kagome walked over to her. " I brought you this," she said as she put a piece of fish in front of her.
" Kagome, I can't eat knowing Miroku is hurt." Sango looked over to him, which made her cry even more. "Miroku is going to be fine, you'll see." Kagome looked up at her." Sango, you love him, don't you?" Kagome asked as she put an arm around her shoulder. Sango looked her. 'well there's no use in denying it.' she thought. " Yeah, I-I guess I do." Sango said quietly.
She stood up, "Where are you going." Kagome said as she stood up with her, " I need some time alone for a while, stay here Kirara." and with that she walked into the woods.
'I love him, It feels good to admit that.' she thought. She found a very beautiful grassy hill with pink, yellow and red flowers, it had an over look of the stars and the moon too.
She sat down and looked out at the stars, thinking about all the times her and Miroku had together, the first time they met, the first he groped her, the first time she slapped him. She snickered to herself at that thought. She sighed when she though of the first time he held her hand. She never really think about all the attention he gave her, whenever she needed him, there he'll be.
Whenever she was sad, there was his shoulder to cry on. She sighed, she really did love him, and it took her that moment to realize it.
Inuyasha and Shippo were already sleeping, she smiled at them. She walked over to them and gave them both a kiss on the cheek.
Miroku's eyes fluttered open as his view came into focus It hurt to move, but he sat up. " Sango?" was the first thing that came out of his mouth. Kagome ran to his side. " I was beginning to think you would never wake up." she said smiling. " Are you okay? Are you feeling a bit better?" he looked at her with a dim smile.
" It still hurts but I think I can walk." she helped him to his feet. " Where's Sango?" he said with concern. "She walked into the woods about ten minutes ago, she said she wanted to be alone." Miroku started to walk into the woods. " I'll be back." she stopped him. "But you're still hurt, Miroku , don't you think you should rest?" she asked. "I'll be fine, I have to talk to her." he smiled at her. " Thank you Kagome." he gave her a hug. And walked into the woods.
' I hope they come back okay.' she thought as she layed next to Shippo in her sleeping bag and drifted off to sleep.
Miroku found her, she had fallen asleep on the grassy hill. He sat next her.
' She's so beautiful.' he thought as he moved a piece of hair away from her face. She stirred and awoke from her sleep. " M- Miroku?" he smiled down at her. She sat up. " You're awake." she said happily. Then her smile faded she turned away from him.
" Sango, what is wrong?" she didn't turn around. "It was my fault you got hurt Miroku, all my fault I was in the way, why did you save me? I-I can't stand it when you're hurt." she said sadly. He got up and sat next to her.
" Well couldn't just sit there and watch you get hurt Sango, I wouldn't be able to live with myself if that ever happened." Sango wrapped her arm around him and kissed him. He went wide eyed, but then closed them.
She pulled away but kept her arms around him. " Miroku, I-I.."
He put his finger on her lips, " I love you too Sango." he kissed her. Her hand intertwined with his. She put her head on his shoulder. It actually did feel good to be loved.
The next morning Kagome awoke first. She looked over to where Sango and Miroku were and smiled. Sango was sleeping on Miroku chest with a smile on her face. Miroku had his arms wrapped around her, his hands still in hers.
" They we're going to get together sooner or later." Kagome was surprised when she heard Inuyasha's voice behind her.
"It's just so nice to see them together now." she took his hand. " Like we are you know?" He kissed her forehead and pulled her close. " Like we'll always be." he whispered in her ear. She smiled. " Kagome! No don't leave me, please!" Shippo said in his sleep.
She was a little upset that the mood was killed. " Later, Inuyasha." she gave him a quick kiss and went over to Shippo.
She knelt down beside him and took him in her arms. " Shippo, it's okay, wake up, I'm here." she whispered to him as she tried to wake him up. Shippo slowly opened his eyes. " Mama!" he said as he hugged her neck. " Don't leave me!" she felt his tears go down her neck. "Calm down, Shippo I would never leave you, you we're having a bad dream, I'm not going anywhere, I promise."she said as she stroked his back,trying tocalm him down.He sniffled and looked up at her with teary eyes that she wiped with her sleeve.
All the crying and yelling woke Sango and Miroku up. Sango blushed when she saw where she was sleeping. Miroku smiled down at her. "Morning." he said to her. He got up and helped her to her feet. " It's about time you guys got up!" Inuyasha said as he put Kagome's yellow backpack on his back.
" Come on we got to get going!" Kagome stood up and put Shippo on her shoulders.
Kirara ran up to Sango and Miroku and turned into her demon form. Sango help Miroku on. Once again the gang went on with their mission. Side by Side.
Following closely, Kikyo was watching every move, waiting for Naraku spell to take over them, waiting for the right time to attack. She used a spell on herself so nobody could sense or smell that she was coming.
' Betrayer' she thought as she glared down at Inuyasha's hand in Kagome's. She was sad but she didn't cry for him, she thought he wasn't worth it. 'Traitor, Inuyasha, you promised me we would go to the underworld together.' She watched as Kagome smiled and kissed his cheek. " That whore of a reincarnation!" she said to herself.
She glared at her so hard her eyes started to hurt. If beams of heat could come out of her eyes, the whole forest would burn down. ' I despise you Inuyasha, I promise, no matter how long it takes, I'll see to it that you and you're precious miko will burn in hell.' she thought angrily. The sky was getting dark, Naraku's spell was coming into affect, the sky was getting darker as Kikyo readied herself for her attack.
Miroku was feeling tense, Sango turned her head to look at him when he let go of her waist. " Miroku, what is wrong?" she asked. " I don't know, something just, doesn't feel right." she looked down. "Oh." Miroku turned to her. "No! no! It's not you." Miroku said as he took her hand. Sango looked relieved. " Then what is it?" she asked. " I don't know just a feel-" Miroku didn't finish his sentence. His hand left hers as he fell off Kirara's back. "Miroku!" Sango yelled. Kirara swooped down and caught Miroku befor e he hit the ground.
He was unconscious. Kirara started to drop down to the ground to, soon enough she was unconscious too. " Miroku, Kirara! Please wake up!" Sango yelled as she hovered over them.
" Sango!" Kagome yelled as she ran over to her. Followed by Inuyasha and Shippo. " What happened?" Kagome said with worry. Inuyasha answered for her. " It's one of Naraku's spells, I can feel it. Whatever you do don't breathe in the air." but it was too late. Sango and Shippo had collapsed. Both unconscious. The spell hadn't seemed to be affecting Kagome. But, it was wearing Inuyasha down, he was already falling to his knees.
" Kagome, I need you to do something." Kagome held his head in her lap. " No Inuyasha please, don't leave me." she said through her tears. " Please Kagome, be strong, for me." Inuyasha closed his eyes just like all the others. Kagome hugged him as tears flowed down her face. " No, Inuyasha please don't go, I can't do this by myself." she cried.
Then she heard something that made her blood run cold.
Kikyo's laughter.
