A/N: TW: bad cliche


Body Swap


Kagome groaned and opened her eyes. The memories were hazy, but she remembered fighting an odd youkai. They all hit it with all they had and finally killed it, but why was she now laying on a blanket, near a fire? She didn't remember moving from their battlefield... But now they were in a small forest meadow and it was almost evening.

"Are you okay?" Miroku leaned over her and looked at her worriedly. He had a big bruise on his forehead from an attack from the youkai.

"Uh... I think I'm fine. How are the others?" she rasped out. She really could use a cup of tea.

"Here, let me check..." all her cognitive processes stopped when she felt a hand grabbing her hip.

"Aaargh!" without thinking she swung her hand at him and scored a direct hit to his jaw, sending him tumbling to the floor. "Oh, sorry, Miroku, I didn't mean to hit you so hard!"

"Servers him right," she heard an amused hanyou and turned to see Inuyasha sitting nearby, Shippou perched on an overhanging branch of a nearby tree.

"Yeah,that pervert," the kitsune added. Miroku moaned in a mix of pain and disagreement. It sounded a bit like 'I'm so misunderstood.'

But Kagome wasn't paying any attention to the boys. Carefully she rose to her feet and made her way to the other laying person, guarded by the sitting hanyou. Inuyasha tilted his head when she approached.

"What's up?" he asked. She ignored him, instead staring at...

...At her own body laying asleep under a blanket. She felt the world under her spinning, but before she could fall to the ground and squeeze Inuyasha under herself the hanyou jumped up and steadied her.

"Woah, be careful, you took a hit to your head when the youkai exploded," he muttered and led her back to her blanket and the sleeping Kirara curled beside the place her head had been. Miroku was kneeling beside the blanket and rubbing his abused cheek, but didn't look angry. She turned her eyes at him and grabbed one of his forelocks.

"Inuyasha..." she breathed out. "I'm not Sango. I'm Kagome."

At first they didn't want to believe her, but when the other girl woke up a while later the truth became obvious. Somehow their bodies were switched. The worried group decided to return to Kaede's village and look for the old miko's advice.

Luckily for them the next day near the mid-morning they reached the village and spoke to Kaede, who had a medicine to aid the troubled girls. The downside was that even after applying it they had to spend the rest of the day in not theirs bodies.

That didn't seem like such a hard thing, since Sango and Kagome had little secrets from each other and there was no embarrassment about their physique. Shippou just found the whole thing amusing, because they were still mistaking one girl for another Inuyasha wasn't complaining either, since neither of the girls could sit him. But quickly he realized that now Kagome could simply grab Hiraikotsu and take a swing at him.

It occurred to him when he commented on her finally having a womanly figure.

Miroku stood beside Sango holding Kirara in her arms. Shippou was rolling on the grass as they all were watching Kagome running after Inuyasha, swinging the huge boomerang at his head.

"Hm, that looks so odd to see you running after him," he commented. "I know you're standing beside me, at least your soul, but seeing your body chasing after another with a desire to maim him..."

"It's quite weird," Sango agreed. "But he should be wiser and not put his foot in his mouth like that," Sango glanced at Miroku's hand, which was slowly inching to her rear dressed in a short skirt. "And speaking of wisdom. Tell me, monk, what do you think Inuyasha would do to you if you grabbed Kagome's butt?"

The hand was snatched back with the speed of light.
