Boy I feel productive today! D I might have not mentioned it, but a Baki means hungry ghost, a spirit whos after revenge or not done in this world.
Chapter 4: The truth, revealed.
While Sango headed back towards their camping site, Miroku was struggling with the baki he had no idea how hard it was going to be fighting a spirit, after being a monk and all. Miroku swung his staff at the baki continuously, only to find out that it had no effect. "Why isn't anything working!?" He said so surprised. The Shadow maneuvered from side to side, dodging Miroku's swings and creeping towards him even closer. Miroku jumped back, tired, he thought quickly, "Nothing seems to be working...unless..." Miroku looked at his right hand, "I use the windtunnel on this thing."
The shadow was creeping unto him closer and closer, but also very slowly. "Well..." Miroku began, as he reached to undo the prayer beads on his glove, "its worth giving it a try." He muttered, as he undid the prayer beads, aimed at the baki and then..."WINDTUNNEL!!" Miroku unleashed his curse upon the unknown baki; it seemed that the baki stopped moving. Miroku frowned, "I don't want to overuse my windtunnel..." He thought, but soon he felt relief after seeing the baki dissolve and flow into his void of nothingness. Miroku closed his hand, tied the prayer beads around his right hand and grinned with victory written all over his face.
"Yet another evil creature destroyed." He said proudly to himself. "Miroku!" A distant voice called. Miroku broke out of his meritorious thoughts and looked around. Again, he looked around for the voice that had called him and then it finally occurred to him to look up. "Sango!" He said with joy in his voice. Kirara flew down and got to the ground, Sango smiled at Miroku, who seemed much happier then their last encounter. "Hop on, Miroku." Sango said. "Wait...Sango." Miroku said looking at her. "What is it, Miroku?" She asked him, with concern. "It's been some time since we've been alone without the other spying on us...do you think we could just sit down and talk?" He explained.
TALK. The word rang inside Sango's head instantly, the kind of talk where you're afraid to talk, because the subject is serious. Sango Merely nodded and showed off a small smile. Sango jumped up Kirara and sat down, following Sango, Miroku joined her. Sango was particularly nervous, since she had important news to tell him, she wanted to tell him she was pregnant, she planned to break it to him slowly. "Where did you go, Sango?" Miroku asked her. Sango blinked breaking out of her thoughts, "I went to see Kaede." She replied. Miroku was worried, "Why is there something wrong with you?" He asked again. Sango looked down, "Actually there is something I want you to know." She said in a serious tone.
Miroku nodded in an understanding way, yet nervous. So nervous he began to play with his fingers, "Okay." He said. Sango took a deep breath, "Well..." She said biting her lower lip. "Yes?" Miroku asked, now wanting to know what it was. Sango sighed, "Miroku..." She started. Miroku looked at her. "I'm pregnant." Sango managed to blurt out. This hit Miroku like a ton of bricks, Miroku opened his mouth to say something, but nothing came out,"..." He was completely speechless. Sango looked down, she felt uneasy, she was nervous at what Miroku was going to say. After countless minutes, Miroku finally said something, "That's...great, Sango!" he said optimistically.
Sango looked up at him; she had no idea what to say. "Can I see?" Miroku asked. "See what?" Sango asked, a little confused. Miroku inched forward and moved her arms away, revealing her small belly, "This..." He said to her. "Oh..." Sango replied, beginning to blush. Miroku hugged Sango, "I think you've made me the happiest man on this world." He said with a smile.
