Hey, long time no see. So here's another chapter sorry about the wait my computer was broken. But um as always enjoy and I hope to update soon.
Sango grunted, her fingers tightly wrapped around the little weeds threatening the garden. She stuffed the last bits of the weeds in her basket and head to throw them out. The basket fell out of her arms and dumped everything out on to the grass below. She sighed and bent over picking up the weeds and shoving them back into the basket. While she was bent over she felt a warm hand on her backside and stood to find that awful monk grinning. Anger took over and she found her fist firmly planted in the monks face. He feel back and she gasped. She bent ot help him up but remembered why he was on the ground in the first place.
"I would help you but you deserve to be on the ground." She stated turning her back towards the monk. He moaned and got on his knees holding his nose.
"I'm sorry I'm sorry I couldn't help myself. It was just there looking so nice." He stood and rubbed his nose tenderly.
"You shouldn't touch people without permission and you shouldn't ever touch me."
"Without permission?" He asked hopefully.
"No just ever." Her hair swayed from side to side as she threw the weeds away and picked several items from the garden. "Hey I'm going to go trade these in the village to see if I can get some meat or fruit." She announced into the hut but found it was pretty bare. Miroku sat in the middle of the floor. "Where are the others?"
"Inuyasha and Shippo went to meet Kagome and Keade is in the back doing something I forgot." He took a sip of tea.
"Okay, well you know where I will be." She turned around and headed to the village. "So I have 4 fish, and several of these fruits." She held out a round orange and red, soft looking fruit. She looked up from her fruit to see a woman in distress trying to carry many things in her hands. Sango grabbed one of the bags and smiled at the young woman. To her surprise she smiled back but she had a very different face than anyone else in the village or anyone she had ever seen. She reminded her of the two brothers that were after the shards.
"Oh thank you so much. It was just too heavy for me."
"Your welcome where is your home?" The woman shook her head.
"I don't live here. I am traveling through and I have just stopped for the night and to get supplies. I actually looking for somewhere to stay." She had brown hair that was pulled up and was wearing a kimono but it looked like it was put on wrong. As they began to walk Sango gave her a questioning look.
"Where are you from?"
"Oh somewhere very far away. I came here by boat but as I arrived it broke. I am traveling in hopes to find someone that can fix it so I can come back home." She nodded to her own words and Sango glanced at her Kimono. The girl giggled. "Oh yes I put this on wrong but I didn't know how to wear it and this was given to me as a gift from the previous village." Sango set the things down and held her hands out. The girl turned and Sango tightened it tightly and she grunted. "Oh you wear these tight."
"Yes you'll get used to it soon. If you like I don't think anyone would mind if you came back and stayed with us for a night." The girl gasped and did a half jump in excitement.
"Oh that would be just lovely. Thank you so much." She bowed deeply and Sango waved it off.
"It's no big deal." They walked together chatting of her home and different foods. As they entered the hut Miroku stood and walked over to her.
"What a lovely lady, and exotic too." He exclaimed taking her hand and kissing it gently. Sango pushed him out of the way and took her bag and put them in his arms.
"She is staying with us for the night and offered to make us a meal too." Sango said as she began putting things away. Miroku sighed and put the bags down and grabbed both of her hands again.
"And you can cook. What an amazing woman. Would you consider honoring me and baring my children?" He asked with big hopeful eyes. She giggled nervously and swallowed. She pulled her hands away and walked gracefully over to one of her bag and started to rummage in it.
"Now I am flattered but I don't think you want me." She said pulling something out and going over to Sango who was angrily peeling fruit.
"And why is that my love?" She put a finger to her chin and grinned.
"Well because of this." She spun Sango around reviling a large knife pressed against her throat. Sango grunted and tried to get out of her grasp but couldn't, the girl was too strong. She started to struggle more but the knife tighten its hold. "Oh no dear I wouldn't do that, not unless you would like your blood to stain the floor." Miroku pulled his staff from the corner of the room and aimed it at her. She laughed from her throat and tilted her head.
"What are you going to do, bang me on the head with it? Please I have your little girlfriend right where I want her and if you make any moves she'll lose her little life." The girl wrapped her arm around her waist and pressed her face to hers. Sango pulled away and she smiled.
"What do you want with us vile woman?" Miroku asked still posed to fight her. She made a humming sound.
"Same thing those dope brothers want."
"The shards." He said under his breath but she still heard.
"Bingo! Where are they? You give them to me and I won't hurt your girlfriend."
"I'm not his girlfriend. "Sango said angrily. She glanced at her with distain.
"Either way I don't care I want the shards now or your blood is spilt. I know the old woman has them." The two gasped at her knowledge. It was true that Keade had the shards. Kagome had given them to her in fear the brothers would swipe them off her. They hesitated for a moment and the woman grew impatient. "Tell your boyfriend he has five seconds before I start slicing." She took her hands nad rubbed it down her cheeks as she spoke into her ear.
"Take your hands off her!" He yelled inching closer. The woman looked at him sideways.
"I thought you would like something like this. Two girls together. Am I wrong?" When she looked at him her eyes were as black as night.
"Demon!"
The demon girl rolled her head back. "Man you're just so good at this guessing game! Five four three-"She started counting down.
"No Miroku you can't." Sango begged tears filing her eyes but she didn't let them bother her pleading. He began to look around the room furiously the number decreased.
"Two, one."
"I don't know where the crazed old woman put it please don't hurt her." He held a hand out and watch the knife almost glide across her throat but stop. The demons hand reached in the air and caught something. She looked it over and put it in the front of her Kimono. Miroku turned to see the old woman standing confidently in the doorway.
"Now leave demon." She demanded.
"Oh no no I am going to walk to the door way with this pretty lady so you don't stab me in the back while I am leaving. Clear the way." The two cleared the door entered the hut and watched her hold Sango by the neck and rip up the side of her Kimono. She stood straight again and smiled. Thanks for doing business and just so you don't follow me. She took the knife and slashed the girls' neck and dropped her, then ran off towards the center of the woods. Miroku leaped for Sango and caught her before she hit the ground.
"Sango, Sango please don't. Oh no Sango can you hear me?" She made some gurgling noises and panic set in. Keade knelt beside her and put pressure on the wound. "Sango please no don't go."
