Here's the next chapter. I'm working on other chapters as well. I hope you like this chapter. Please post comments, but be nice. I'll do my best to post the next chapter soon. I'm still on vacation.
Miroku's sight returned and he found himself tied up with Inuyasha and Hatchi. A group of villagers, young and old were facing them. The leader stepped out of the group and towards Miroku. He seemed pretty angry.
"Why did you come here?" he asked.
"Me and my friends just need a place to stay," replied Miroku.
"How do we know you didn't lower Naraku here?"
"Why would I do that when I want to kill him?"
"You people are nuts! You can't treat us like this!" shouted Hatchi.
"SILENCE!" shouted the leader, "You will speak when spoken to!"
He took a few steps closer towards them and he looked into their faces. He found Inuyasha rather odd looking. He had never seen a kid with dog ears before.
"Who are you?" he asked him.
"I should be asking you the same question," Inuyasha replied.
"How dare you say that you little brat!"
"How dare you tie up three innocent children!"
"That's it! Guards take them to the cells."
The guards untied Miroku, Hatchi and Miroku and they grasped their arms and started pulling them out of the room. Miroku looked at the crowd and spotted Sango. Miroku tried to pull away from the grasp, but his arm got tighter.
"Sango! Sango help us!" he called out to her.
Sango backed away into the crowd and the leader halted the guards. They faced their leader still holding onto the kids. The leader walked up to Miroku.
"How do you know my daughter?" he asked.
"I met her in the forest a few days ago," Miroku replied.
"Sango come here," he called out.
Sango stepped out of the crowd and walked towards her father. She was twirling her hair with her fingers.
"Yes daddy?" she asked.
"Do you know this boy? Tell me the truth," he said.
Sango was silent for a moment, then she spoke up.
"Yes, I know him. He speaks the truth daddy," she said.
Her father nodded and commanded the guards to release Miroku, Hatchi, and Inuyasha. He gave Miroku his monk staff back.
"I apologize," he said.
"It's okay. I've been taken down many times," replied Miroku.
"What's your name?"
"I'm Miroku and these are my friends Hatchi and Inuyasha."
Hatchi and Inuyasha waved at Sango's father. He gave a small grin that made Hatchi twitch.
"Sango can show you around the village if you want to," he said.
"Oh sure. We liked that," replied Miroku.
" We my butt," said Hatchi in a low voice.
Miroku gave Sango a love glare and she stepped back a little with a worried look. Sango's father put his hand on her shoulder.
"While you're showing them around, would you give these to your mother," he asked as he handed her a small basket of fruit.
"Yes daddy," she replied.
He smiled and went back to his duties with the villagers. Sango escorted Miroku, Hatchi, and Inuyasha outside and showed them a few places in the village. Around sunset, Sango stopped in front of a small, but beautiful home. Miroku, Hatchi, and Inuyasha gazed at its design.
"I need you guys to stay outside and be quiet," said Sango.
"Why?" asked Miroku
"My mommy had my baby brother a few days ago and she's tired."
"Your mother bore a child?"
"Yes and she needs peace and quiet."
"Why can't we go inside with you?"
"This place is off limits to boys and men. This place is for mothers to have their children."
"I understand."
"Good."
"Wait. What's your brother's name?"
"Kohaku."
"That's a nice name."
Sango nodded and she entered the home while the boys waited for her in the shade. Miroku had a dreamy look on his face.
"Oh no, what are you thinking about now?" asked Hatchi.
"That I'm back with Sango. Someday she'll bear my children" replied Miroku.
"You're never going to give up are you?"
"Why would I give up on my Sango? She's too cute."
"And kicks butt."
Hatchi sighed at Miroku's expression. Inuyasha just stared at them in confusion.
"Did I miss something?" he asked.
"Inuyasha, you don't know how lucky you are," said Hatchi.
TO BE CONTINUED
I'll be posting the next chapter soon. I'm sorry if I made a few errors. I just hope I spelled name of Sango's brother correctly. I'll try to make the next chapter longer. It'll be exciting.
