Here's the next chapter. It's pretty funny. This is the chapter where some of the characters enter the story. Chapter 3 will be updated soon. Post comments.
Miroku was halfway through the woods when he came upon a little lost raccoon dog. It stared at Miroku and then backed away into a tree.
"Please don't hurt me!" it begged.
"I won't hurt you," replied Miroku.
"You won't? Then what do you want?"
"Are you lost?"
"No! I'm not lost. What makes you think I'm lost?"
"The way you're crying."
"I'm not crying! I have sand in my eyes."
"Well if you don't have any place to go to, do you want to travel with me?"
"Why not, I don't have a home anyway."
"Oh, I'm sorry to hear that little guy."
"My name's Hatchi, not little guy."
"Hi Hatchi, my name's Miroku."
They shook hands and started down the road.
"Listen Hatchi do you know where any girls live?" asked Miroku.
"I think a few live close by around here. We should see some when we reach the end of the woods," replied Hatchi.
"Great!"
After a few minutes, Miroku and Hatchi reached the end of the woods. A girl crossed their path. Miroku's heart raced. She had dark hair and had it tied back. She was busy picking fruit from the trees. Miroku approached her.
"Hi," he said.
"Hello," the girl replied back.
"What's your name?"
"Sango."
"I'm Miroku."
"Nice to meet you."
Miroku took Sango's hand and he got on his knees.
"Will you bear my child?" he asked.
"Excuse me?" Sango said in shock.
"I asked you if you would bear me my child. Are you going to or not?"
"NO!"
"Why not?"
"I don't know how!"
"I don't know either, but you should give me one."
"NO!"
"Hatchi do you think she should bear me a child?" he asked.
"Um………I'm staying out of this," he replied.
Miroku looked at Sango again and grasped her hand harder.
"Please Sango," he begged.
"NO!" she screamed.
Suddenly a big cat demon jumped on Miroku. It bared it's fangs at him. Hatchi frantically climbed up a tree and left his friend to die.
"Nice kitty," Miroku said nervously.
The cat demon growled loudly and pierced his shoulders with its sharp claws. Miroku moaned in pain as blood oozed from his shoulders. Hatchi closed his eyes and waited for the crunch sound.
"Kirara that's enough," said Sango.
The cat demon looked at her.
"Come on girl, we're going home," she said.
Kirara removed her claws from Miroku's shoulders and she went to Sango. She knelt down as Sango climbed on her back.
"Listen Monk, if you ever threaten me again my Kirara won't go easy on you," she said.
Kirara roared at Miroku and took off into the sky with Sango. Hatchi climbed down the tree and helped Miroku up. Blood stained his sleeves.
"Miroku are you okay?" asked Hatchi.
"I'm okay it didn't hurt that much," he replied.
"Lets get help in the next village."
"Don't you think she's wonderful?"
"Who?"
"Sango."
"No. Forget her Miroku. She's nothing but trouble."
"That's how I like my girls."
Hatchi just sighed and helped Miroku to the next village. At the village, a girl wrapped Miroku's arms. He got that look again that made Hatchi gag a little.
"You're all done," said the girl.
"Thanks. May I know your name?" asked Miroku.
"My name's Kikyo," she said.
"I'm Miroku," he said.
"Here we go," said Hatchi.
Miroku took her hand and got on his knees again.
"Since you saved me from bleeding to death, will you consider bearing my child?" he asked.
"Sure sweetie. Just tell me where you live," replied Kikyo.
"I live in the Great Monk Territory."
"Oh, in other words the 'the peasant village.' Come back to me when you own a mansion."
She pulled her hand away from Miroku and walked off.
"Whoa. She turned you down big time," said Hatchi.
"Hatchi," said Miroku.
"Yes?"
"Shut up."
He got up and walked to the entrance of the door. He inhaled the cool air and continued his way with Hatchi at his side. He walked down the road with a dreamy look on his face.
"What are you thinking about Miroku?" asked Hatchi.
"All the lovely girls I'm going to meet and I hope that I run into Sango. She's the best," he replied.
"Again with her?"
"She's a tough broad."
"You'll never change Miroku."
"Hatchi, don't you meet any girl raccoon dogs?"
"No."
"Why not?"
"I'm the only one left of my kind."
"What!"
"It's true. That's why I don't have a home anymore. I'm all alone."
"Hey you still got me."
Hatchi grinned for a moment then frowned again. Miroku knew his heart was shattered. Somebody hurt him. He crossed his heart and said a prayer for his friend to find happiness once more. They continued down the road. The sun set behind them. Neither of them knew where they were going. They didn't realize that they stumbled into Inuyasha's territory.
