The Final chapter! Whoooo!!!!! ... So...This story took about half a year to complete so I'm not sure what to say at this point. Just Read and Review is enough.

Rain was falling quickly down on Tokyo. The people below were either in their nice warm houses watching television and toasting by the warm fire side, or rushing around, trying desperatly not to get anymore wet than they already were. All but one, that is.

Miroku staggered along the sidewalk, mumbling to himself, not watching where he was going, nor careing in the least. He would walk right into people and scowl at them for not watching where they were going. Along his way he ran into a cop. Smart move. The cop would have let him go by with it, if Miroku hadnt been so rude to him about it." Sir" The uniformed officer began. When the intoxicated man turned around, the cop knew right away he was completely drunk. "Um, Sir, you're going to have to come with me." He began as he reached for Miroku's arm. Miroku backed away and pushed his arm away roughly.

"Don't touch me you government scum!" Miroku would think of random insults that did'nt make a bit of sense when he was drunk. The officer tried not to get too angry with him and cleared his throat, "Sir, it's a fellony to walk around public intoxicated." The cop reached for his cuffs...which were right beside his pistol. "The fuck you gonna do bout it, pussy?" The towns people gasped, some teenagers laughed and watched to see if he was going to get a beating.

The cop smacked Miroku clear across the face, and because Miroku was too drunk to carry his own body weight he collapsed to the ground in a large mud puddle. Some mothers ran by with their children, sheilding their eyes from the violence. Some children managed to see and seemed to be om Miroku's side, though they didn't know what was going on. "You bully!" A little girl yelled. The officer didn't get mad. He thought it was kind of cute, but he returned his attention to the drunk which sat before him. He slowly stood up to face the man that had rudly struck him. "I thought you guys were supposed to be all nice and run around like fucking Superman and save weak humans who can't defend themselves, not beat the shit out of them!"

Having enough, the officer smacked Miroku with the butt of his gun. He pushed him into an alley, and drew his pistol to show him that he wasn't screwing around and he would kill him if he had to. Miroku only laughed. " Go ahead. Shoot me. That won't make you any more of a man. You only kill because you're a little short between the legs. You don't have the balls to kill me!"

The officer placed his hand on the trigger, "I swear I'll do it!" Miroku said nothing, which made the cop slowly reach for him. " Now come with me and we can talk about this down at the station." Miroku gave a weak smile in response to this. "You still don't get it, do you?" He began, "I've lost everything.My wife ran off with the man I hate most in life, and I'm living on the streets. Do you think any human would want to live after being through this kind of torture?" Miroku backed away a good three feet or so and held his arms wide open. "Go ahead. Shoot"

Suprised, the officer firmly held the trigger. He was unsure, but with Miroku's nod of approval he pulled it. A shot that was hear all through Tokyo.

Sango sat silently on Tetsu's couch watching television. She was becomming more and more pregnant as the days went on and she couldn't have looked more radiant. Tetsu wasn't the family type, so he wasn't sure how to react to Sango's "Woman" issues but he tried. He was at her beck and call until the baby was born. After all Sango hadn't yet told him that Miroku was really the father.

"Son of a-!" Tetsu yelled from the kitchen. He was preparing some soup for Sango and he had burned his hands on the pot. He ran it under some cool water and let it sit, letting out a frustrated groan. Sango only giggled from where she was sitting and placed her attention back to the television.

"We are sorry to interrupt your show, but there is an important announcement..." A woman said, suddenly appearing on the T.V.

Tetsu looked up from the kitchen to see. "More news? We get it already. The world sucks yadda yadda yadda..." sango gave a smile. "Eh, it could be something different."

"Just 2 hours ago in an ally way near Tokyo, a man was shot by a local cop..."

"Ha! Now the police are turning on us! It's a revolution I tell you!" Tetsu shrieked. Sango shushed him.

" He was described to be an intoxicated man around his mid twenties..."

Then a helicopter vew showed the mayhem below. Crowds of people panicking and clamoring around the body. It was out of sight for anyone watching television. "Whooo... I always enjoy having my show interupted to stare at the back of peoples heads..."

Sango turned around to him and gave a annoyed but slighlty ammused smile. "I may be pregnant but I will kick your ass if you don't shut up." Tetsu gave her a smirk. "Oo...You gonna spank me?" Sango giggled and turned back again.The crowd was beginning to clear up and the body was in view.

"The man is still alive but it will be hard to say if he will survive."

"M-Miroku...?" Sango stammered. Tetsu looked up from what he was doing and ran beside her. "What? Are you sure?" It was Miroku alright. He could hear Sango gasping for breath beside him. Tears were flowing. "Tetsu! We have to go!" sango ordered as she suddenly sprang from the couch. She ran to retrieve her coat. "Go? Are you crazy? We will never make it through the crowd!"

"We have to try!" Sango screamed.

"Why? This man beat you! He raped you! Why would you want to see a man like that?"

There was a long pause, and Sango looked up to him with pain and replied in a hoarsed whisper,

"Because I love him." That answer sent a blinding pain in tetsu's heart. It was crazy to think that after all the pain he caused her, she was still with him. That's what love truly was.

"Lets go" He replied and grabbed his coat and followed Sango out the door and toward his car.

-------------------------------------

When they arrived at the ally way, the commotion was endless. People were crowding, screaming, gasping,just trying to get away from the violence. Sango and Tetsu stepped out of the car and tried to push their way through. They were stopped by a uniformed cop at the entrance. "You can't enter here." Sango pushed him away, "That's my husband!"

Sango saw Miroku lying before her. His face was pale and the rain was causing his blood to flow and blend in with the puddles. Sango gasped and tears began flowing down her cheeks again. Miroku looked up. "Sango?"

She gave a small relieved sigh and knelt down beside him. "Y-yes, sweety, I'm here." Tetsu came from behind her and held an umbrella over her already drenched head. He tried not to get Miroku's attention. He was a monster to him for six years, and he couldn't face him now.

"Sango...You have become so beautiful." Miroku whispered. She smiled and placed a hand on his cold cheek. Miroku let his eyes wander to her stomach. "So...you're pregnant. Who's the lucky man?" Sango knew that Tetsu was behind her, but she couldn't lie to a dying man. Her dying husband for that matter. "You are."

Tetsu gasped, "But you said..." His voice trailed off when he realized it wasn't the time to worry about it.

"Am I?" Miroku asked. Sango nodded. "Funny, I don't remember having sex." It was obvious he couldn't remember a thing since he became drunk. He was still the sweet Miroku she had always loved, and that made it much more painful for her to let go. Sango closed her eyes and began to sob. She felt Miroku's gentle touch on her left cheek and held his hand there.

She opened her eyes when she heard Miroku give a small chuckle. "Genuine Tears, huh? Thats a good name." He began. "Why do you say that?" Sango asked, stroking his hair. " It makes the one you love, the one you would die for, break down into a million pieces...and cry their hurting souls out"

That was what she was going through. "I'm sorry, Sango. I love you." He whispered.

"I love you too."

With that Sango leaned over and planted a gentle kiss on his cold lips. He was about to die. And she couldn't stop it. "Tetsu..." Miroku began, calling the suited man attention. "Take care of her. She's special." Tetsu nodded and began to cry. Miroku gave one last longing stare into Sango's eyes before closing his one final time. The bullet that had peirced his skin had taken away all his pain and confusion.

And the rain continued to fall.

Six months later, Sango had her baby and she was living happily with Tetsu. He had let Sango's lie go, and he even allowed her to name the baby after her deceased husband. When Little Miroku turned a year old, Sango became homesick. She wanted to move back to where she lived with Miroku. Tetsu didn't approve.

Unable to shake her desires, Sango broke up with him and took Little Miroku with her. She moved back to her old apartment. For this is where her life started and this is where she promised it would end.
