Mouthful

Theme: #9- Dash

AN: This is based on a random observation I made while watching Inuyasha the other night. That's all I'm gonna say .

Disclaimer: Rumiko Takahashi, congrats on 10 years of actually keeping this story going! And what a great storyline to have going on during the anniversary:D (M/S, w00t!) If you couldn't tell, she owns it, not me.

"The demon's getting away!" Shippou exclaimed, watching the large creature flying off into the distance after completely dodging Tessaiga's assault.

"Damn it!" Inuyasha yelled, his sword still brandished. "Hurry up, Kagome, let's go after it!"

"We'll go ahead of you!" Sango said, flying off on Kirara with Miroku behind her.

"What a strange creature," Miroku commented as they chased the demon. "I've never seen anything with powers like this."

"Yeah, it's definitely a strong one," Sango replied, getting her hand ready on Hiraikotsu as they neared.

"I sure hope the villagers give us a good reward for slaying this one!" he said with a mischievous smile.

Sango groaned. "Can't you ever think about anything other than your own gain? I wish you'd just shut up for once!"

They were finally close enough to the demon to make an attack. Sango led Kirara into a quick dive so they could get into a good striking range. "Are you ready?" Sango called, about to throw her weapon.

"Mfgmh hsmgmwp mnpfght"

"Uh, Houshi-sama? You really don't have to shut up..."

Just then, Inuyasha dashed up beside them, Kagome and Shippou on his back. All three of them were staring strangely at the duo, although Sango had no idea why.

"Hey, Miroku, quit kissing Sango's hair and get to work!" Inuyasha called.

"W-what?!" Sango exclaimed, her face becoming red as she turned around to see that her pony tail had managed to lodge part of itself in Miroku's mouth. "Oh my... I'm s-so sorry, Houshi-sama! I didn't realize it had gone back there..."

"It's all right," he replied with a slight laugh as she removed her hair and tried her best to keep it down. "Actually, I'm kind of used to it now."

"..."

Whack

AN: That might be my shortest one to date! And I've written some short ones... Seriously, though, am I the only person that's wondered how Miroku hasn't gotten a face full of her hair yet?
