Chapter 16:
"What happened to Friday? Why did Saturday have to come so fast?" I scratched the back of Kirara's ear as I half- listened to Sango's whining.What a pitiful sight. I thought as I looked at my best friend; slouched down on the couch, slightly pale with a the- world-is-coming-to-an-end look on her face.
"It won't be that bad." I reassured her, she huffed and rolled her eyes. She makes it look like she'll die if she goes on this date.
"I hope it rains." she said after paused.
"It's indoors." I said. she sucked her teeth.
"Well, I hope it's crowded then." I shook my head
"Inuyasha said that Miroku rented out the arena. Just for you." I said in a teasing tone.
"Damn it!" I laughed softly when Sango threw herself sideways, pushing her face into the pillows.
"Mama's just crazy isn't she Ki-Ki? Yes she is."
"Shut up. It would be different if I liked him or something but I don't." she mumbled through the pillow.
"Keep telling yourself that, maybe it'll be true someday." I smiled when her reply was flipping me the finger.
KNOCK, KNOCK
"That's probably them now," I announced, walking towards the door. My smile brighten when I saw Inuyasha in the doorway. I instantly threw my arms around his neck, welcoming him with a kiss.
"Hi to you too. You look nice." he said as his eyes traveled down to my black fitted tank top and khaki cargo pants. I turned my attention to the guy next to him, extending my hand in his direction.
"Hi, you're Miroku right?"
"That's right. And you must be the lovely Kagome I've been hearing about." he gripped my hand lightly and kissed the back of it. "It's a pleasure."
"Same here. Come on Sango let's go." looking back at her. She groan loudly but she got up anyways; smoothing out her white shirt and army-camo pants.
"I like your hair that way."As a reflex, Sango touched one of the two french braids; a faint blush dusted her cheeks.
"Uh... thanks." she murmured. I smiled as I watched Miroku offer his arm to her, leading her outside the door. He's not so bad. I thought as I locked the door behind us. I intertwined my fingers with Inuyasha as we walked behind our friends.
"Where's everyone else?" I asked looking at Inuyasha.
"We're meeting them downtown since we all didn't stay at the dorm last night." he answered.
"PERVERT!"
SLAP
We both brought our attention to see Sango, face bright red, fists clenched at her sides and Miruko, on the ground with a red hand print on his cheek.
"See? This is way I didn't want to go the date alone." she stormed back over to me, snatching me away from Inuyasha.
"No!!" I whined, reaching out to him.
She dragged me back to the elevator. "Suck it up. I will not have him by my side." I looked back at Inuyasha who was helping Miroku get back on his feet before smacking him upside his head.
"You always gota ruin it of everybody don't you?" Miroku had a small smile on his face.
"I couldn't help it." Sango sighed
"Pervert." she said softly before getting in the elevator.
------------------------------------------------
I'm not here for your entertainment
You don't really wanna mess with me tonight
Just stop and take a second...
"Could the music be any louder?" Inuyasha said as he pulled up in the parking lot, noticing that they were the last to arrive. Sesshomaru and Bankotsu were talking, Ayame was sitting on the hood of her car talking to Kouga and Rin and Jakotsu were dancing with each other. Inuyasha parked beside Ayame's car.
I was fine before you walked into my life
Cause you know it over before it began
Keep the drink just give me the money
It's just you and your hand tonight
(A/n: I like that song. Don't know why but I do.)
"Hey guys." Ayame was the first to greet them when they stepped out of the car; everyone replied back.
"Kagome this is my brother, Sesshomaru." Sess extented his hand towards her.
"Nice to finally meet you Kagome." Kagome was on auto-polit as she lifted her hand to shake his but didn't respond to him; she was pretty much in a daze. Wow! He's so freaking Hot!!! She did notice the similarites between the two brothers but while Inuyasha had that tough guy look, Sesshomaru refined almost feminine but I'll-still-kick-your-ass look.
"Sorry sweetie but he's mine." Kagome snapped back to reality when she heard a female voice. She then blushed when she realized that she hadn't let go of Sesshomaru's hand.
"Oh... I'm so sorry. I didn't mean to stare...I" Kagome realized that she was rambling when the girl started to laugh.
"It's ok. No need to get nervous. I'm Rin Sato, Sesshomaru's fiancee." she said proudly.
"Rin...Rin?" she knew she heard that name before."Oh! You're the doctor right?" Rin nodded and smiled; shaking Kagome's hand. "It's nice to meet you."
"Nice to meet you too." behind them, Kouga rolled his eyes.
"Uuhhh! Could we finish introductions after we get inside?" he said in a bored tone.
"Kouga!" Ayame scorned at him. He just gave her a look.
"Now you know as well as I do that you want to go inside and play." Ayame sucked her teeth.
"Yeah but I'm not as rude as you are and say it aloud." they both started to argue over who was right and wrong.
"Would you two shut up!" Bankotsu said from beside them. He was tired of listening them agrue about nonsense.
"Who you telling to shut up?" they both said in unison.
"You two." he replied.
"You can't tell us to shut up." Kouga spat back. Bankotsu rolled his eyes, Kouga never back down from a fight.
"You love to hear yourself talk don't you? Shut. Up!" Now those two started to fight.
"Boys, boys," Jakotsu clapped his hands to get their attention. "The longer you fight the less time we have to this date." Listening to reason, the boys stopped.
"Well that was entertaining." Ayame sarcastically said. She eased off the hood of her car, dusting off her jeans. "Hey Sango, I heard Miroku rented out the arena just for you."
"Uh huh." she said indifferently, which wasn't the reaction that Ayame was expecting.
"Aren't you flattered?" Sango looked at her.
"Do you want me to be?" she started to walk away. Ayame was going to press some more but Kagome stopped her, putting her hand on her shoulder, shaking her head.
"Just let her go." she said. "Sango's trying her best to not enjoy this day." Ayame waited a beat before shurugging her shoulders. She looked behind her to see that Inuyasha, Rin, and Sesshomaru were still behind.
"You guys coming or what?" she yelled back.
"Yeah, yeah we're coming." Rin shouted back, grabbing Sesshomaru's hand to pull him forward with her. Kagome also looked back at them for a moment, then looked past them to see to figures; One walking the right way and the other walking backwards. They were at a far distance but still close enough to recognize them.
"Souta!" the one walking backwards stopped and looked in her direction.
"Kagome!?" she ran past the others and towards her little brother.
"Souta! I missed you so much." she reached for him, pulling him into a forceful embrace.
"Kagome...Can't...Breath." Kagome gave him one more squeeze before letting him go.
"When did you get back?" she asked. Souta held up his hand as he tried to breathe air back into his lungs.
"Thursday morning." he answered.
"And when were you going to call me and tell me you were back?" he shrugged.
"I figured since I've been gone for a year, I thought a few more days wouldn't matter." "Ow!!" Souta rubbed the arm that Kagome had hit. "Why did you hit me."
"Because I told (hit) you to call (hit) as soon as you (hit) got home." (hit)
"Stop hitting me!" he shouted
"You deserve it."
"Blah,blah, blah," he stared at her, "What...what is this?" pointing.
"What's what?" she asked looking down at herself.
"This," his gesture was waving his hands over her upper area. "all this.. exposure." she looked down at her chest.
"It's not even a lot." she agrued.
"It's enough. Cover that up. I don't what no guys seeing that." "Ow." he rubbed his already sore arm but he smiled at her.
"You know you shouldn't beat your brother out in public." Kagome turned her attention to the other boy.
"You want me to hit you then?" Kohaku said nothing.
"That what I thought. So what are you guys doing down here?" both boys looked at each other.
"Nothing." they both said together. Kagome was silent for a moment.
"Well since you aren't doing anything why don't you come with us on our date?" They gave her a puzzled look.
"You want us to go with on your date?" she shook her head
"No, no it's not what you think." she pointed behind her, "My friends and I are making it a group date."
"I don't know..." Kohaku began.
"We're doing paintball wars."
"We're in." they said quickly. Smiling, Kaogme lead them back over to where everyone was standing, waiting for them.
"Everyone, this is Kohaku, Sango's brother and this Souta, my brother." everyone greeted back.
"It's nice to finally meet you Souta. Kagome told me a lot about you." Souta looked him up and down twice before speaking.
"And you are?"
"Inuyasha Takahashi."(sp?) he extended his hand; Souta having no intentions of taking it, stuffed his own hands in his pockets. He looked at Kagome then back at him.
"You Kagome's boyfriend or something?"
"Yeah, I am." to prove it, he wrapped his arm around her waist, pulling her closer.
"Uh huh," he put his thoughts together, "I don't like you." he blantly said walking away from them.
"Souta!" Kagome exclaimed but he didn't turn back around.
"Let him go. It's ok." he reassured her. "I wasn't really expecting us to hit it off anyways." Kagome sighed. Sometimes she couldn't believe how much her brother was like their father. Inuyasha held the door opened for her as she walked in the warehouse and looked around the lobby. The ceiling and floors were the color of midnight blue as mulitcolor lights bounced off them and into the 3 hallways, one on each side and one in the middle. There was a large black desk on the left side of the room where Miroku was talking to the woman behind it. Kagome could see her typing on her computer, confirming their reservation.
"This way guys." with Miroku leading the way, everyone went into the left hallway. He pulled a key card from out his pocket once they reached the entrance; sliding it through the scanner and walking on the platform. The first thing they seen was the arena itself; a replica of a forest with tall lush trees and thick green grass covered the field, which was about 2 football fields in length and width. Though it was a closed in there was a skylight cieling, giving you natural sunlight. (A/n: figured since the setting in the anime is a forest way not they arena.)
"Wow." Sango was impressed. She was expecting hardwood floors and large objects that you could hide behind but this was amazing. "You guys come here a lot?" she asked, not directing the question to anyone specific.
"When we can." Miroku answered, walking over to her. "We use the desert arena but I thought this one would be better."
"It's very impressive." she admitted which pleased him. He was bold enough to warp his arm around her shoulder.
"Hey! Hey! Back off." Kohaku's voice came from behind them. They both turned, Miroku putting up his hands in defense.
"Sorry I was only tryna..."
"I don't care. Back ya ass up. Whatever you was "tryna" do you're not doing it with her." Sango smiled, shaking her head; she could always count on Kohaku to keep the boys at bay, whether she wants him too or not.
"Now back away." Miroku sighed in defeat and crossed over to where their gear was stationed.
"So what are we playing?" Ayame asked while strapping on her vest.
"Capture the flag." Inuyasha's crew said as if it was a stupid question.
"Geez, I was only asking. Couples or Boys against Girls?" everyone looked at each other.
"Boys against Girls." they all said together laughing at the same time.
"But there's more boys than girls." Kagome pointed out.
"Then two boys are going to have to be on our team," Rin hooked her arm around Jakotsu's. "You're on our side cause I like ya." she said smiling.
"Fine by me." he commented.
"Ok well Souta and Kohaku can decide what side they want to be on." Sango stated, putting on her gloves. Both boys looked at each other to decide.
"Well I already said I don't like him," jutting his head towards Inuyasha, "so I'll go over to the girls side." Kohaku shrugged
"Peace" they did their handshake before going over to their respective sides.
"Rules?" Souta asked. Miroku cleared his throat.
"When we get down to the field you'll see a white strip going across the middle, boys on one side, girls on another. At the end of the field, there's a post, that's where your flag is going to go." he handed Sango a dark pink flag while holding up a dark blue one. "When you're ready press the button on the post. That'll signal the bell to sound and the game will began." It was now Kouga's turn to speak,
"The white line's the divider, once you step over it, you're in enemy territory. Now say if Kagome goes over to our side and Sesshomaru shoots her, she's automatically goes to 'jail.' You get the person out of jail by tagging them without getting hit yourself, but you gota have your guns on your back, go all the way back to your side, then start over. You can't get the flag if you tag your teammate out. Now, say if Kagome shoots Sesshomaru before he shoots her and she's on our side; he'll be frozen, no shooting or moving for 30 seconds. When the flag is removed from the post the bell will sound so be quick about and get to the other side. If the person shoots you, you have to give back the flag and go to jail."
"Damn, that ain't fair." Kohaku commented. Kouga slanted him a look.
"Hey, like I said be quick about it."
"Anything else we should know?" he asked. Kouga thought for a moment but came up with nothing.
"Time limit's 90 mintues." Bankotsu added.
"What happens if time's up?" asked Jakotsu.
"Dunno." stated Inuyasha "We always finished before then."
"If 6 people can't figure out a strategy and get the flag in an hour and a half you don't need to play." Sesshomaru did have a point .
"Anything else?" Ayame questioned.
"Yeah, No cheating." Inuyasha said. " I mean for you girls and Jakotsu. No kissing and distracting us or giving us sad puppy dog eyes like 'you're not really gonna shoot me are you' then shoot us! And don't get mad when we do." Kagome pouted.
"Man, just messing up our plan." her group laughed.
"That goes for you guys too." Rin pointed out.
"Yeah, yeah."
"Ok, let's get started." with everyone dressed in helmets, goggles,vest, guns, and enough ammo to last for hours, both teams walked off the platform in opposite direction to their side.
------
"Ok Souta, you're gonna be in the field." Kagome directed taking lead as Captain.
"Now who's really good at aiming? We need somone to guard the flag but stay out of sight." she looked around at everyone for an answer.
"I'll do it." Rin raised her hand as if she was in school. Kagome nodded
"Ok. do you think you'll need some help with that?" Rin shook her head. Kagome looked around, there were trees, brushes, shrubs everywhere. You couldn't even see the other end. And there really wasn't much of a path either so you had to find your way on your own.
RING RING RING RING
"That's their bell." Souta said.
"You guys ready?" Ayame asked around, everyone nodding. She attached their flag to the post before sounding their bell.
"Evryone knows the plan. Let's go." For the exception of Rin, the girls' team took off in different directions.
---------
Sesshomaru walked swiftly through the shadows. He had crossed the girls' side a little while back and so far he hadn't been spotted. As he moved, he tried to remember where his teammates were. Inuyasha and Kouga were somewhere ahead of him, Bankotsu stayed behind and Miroku had his back... No! he didn't. That boy Kohaku did. Shit. He wasn't sure if he was any good or not and he didn't have a clue where he was or Miroku for that matter. Uhhh! Their plan was already going down hill. Though it was a game he hated to lose. He stopped for a second before quickly to the right while twisting his upper body to the left as dark pink paintballs flew past, barely missing him. Sesshomaru could see that his attacker was about 4 yards behind and closing. He slid behind a nearby tree as more paint decorated the trunk. Sess silently jumped up, landing gracfully on a branch. (That's was the down side of the disguise technique; they couldn't run as fast or jump as high as they would in their true form and their scent of smell and hearing was no better either.) He peered down below and saw his enemy search the area where he was pervious located. He waited some more sfter she had left his sight before leaping back down. He walked forward, still not sure if one of the girls were near him.
"Damn." he mumbled as he felt the barrel of the gun against his back.
"I thought you'd be a lot better then this Sesshomaru." mocked Ayame jokingly. Sesshomarugrowled low in his throat. 'Where the hell was that kid?'
"You'd shoot your enemies from behind?" he asked in a daring tone.
"Mmm... yeah I would." She raised her index finger, ready to pull the trigger. "Ahhh!" she let a high pitched squeal as something solid hit her back. Sess turned, lifting his gun towards Ayame as he saw his teammate running towards them.
"Damn it. I had him." Ayame grumbled.
"Yeah but you talk to much." Kohaku said. "Let's go" Sesshomaru nodded and followed.
"What took you so long?" he questioned, never slowing down.
" I had to put my sister in jail first." he explained.
"Hn" The kid was proving himself useful. he thought as they moved towards their goal.
-------
Kouga crouched down lolw to the ground, shielding himself with bushes surrounding the area. The flag was in his sights, just a few yards away. There seemed to be no one around to guard it but that meant nothing to him. He'd been in enough battles to know about ambushes, so he'll just be careful. Who knew where the enemy was hiding or who it was. If Rin was guarding he was in trouble. The way she shoots, you'd think she was a trained assassin. He jumped up, leaping from branch to branch until he was just above his target.
'Shit' he heard shots just before paint came directly at him, missing by mere inches, He moved quickly as more paint knocked leaves from their branches and covered trees. Still in the trees, Kouga crept back softly until his back was against it. He leaned forward some to see a shadow but couldn't make out who it belonged to. He watched it disappear. He realized that he was now far back, away from the flag.
"Damn, who the fuck is that?" she was getting more annoyed by the minute.
"Hey." a voice whispered from behind him. Kouga almost lost his balance as he turned quickly tosee Inuyasha crouched down on the branch beside his.
"They ain't given up without a fight." he said then shrugged when he asked who was down there.
"Don't know. I think Rin but she might have company." Inuyasha nodded.
"Okay this is what we do." Kouga began telling Inuyasha his plan.
"Sounds good." he commented after he was done explaining. They heard gun shots nearby. Both men jumped from tree to tree towards the noise. They stopped to se Miroku, holding his own against Rin and Jakotsu. Kouga saw this was the perfect opprtunity to put his plan to action. He jumped down from his hiding spot, landing directly in between Miroku and Rin. Initial she was surprised; she wasn't expecting him to be on the offense. A smirk played on Kouga's lips when he saw her expression at the same time pulling the trigger, sending paint flying through the air. It didn't surprise him in the least when she dogded them with ease and counter attacked him as well. Immediately, he dropped to the ground as pink dots wizzed passed his head, splatting against tree bark. He pushed up, landing on his feet with a grunt. He quickly sccaned the area; Rin, Jakotsu, nor Miroku were nowhere to be seen. He shook his head in disgust, he was sure he and his teammates could handle themselves, but Rin. All the other girls Sesshomaru dated didn't lift a finger, just sat and looked pretty 24/7, 365. But no, he just had to fall in love with the girl who didn't mind getting sweaty and dirty. And training with then over the past 3 years didn't help his situation either. She could jump a lot higher and run a lot faster then the average human. If she wasn't half-demon she could've fooled him.
"Hell." he launched himself to the side as more paint flew by. Landing on his right shoulder, he tucked and rolled into the perfect position to aim at Jakotsu, who had just appeared. No way was he missing him. As tiny blue balls flew from his weapon he watched in disbelief as Jakotsu flipped, jumped, side-stepped and dodged every one at incredible speed. Kouga stopped wasting ammo and sarted for a second.
"No fucking way! You're a demon?!" he shouted angrily. Jakotsu smiled pleasantly.
"Close. Half- dem..OWW!" he jumped back at the sudden shock of pain. He turned just in time to see Miroku come from his hiding spot just as Inuyasha jumped down from a different spot.
"Why didn't you get the flag?" Kouga yelled at him.
"You try getting it with Rin on your ass." he retorted.
"Speaking of the devil. Move!" All three men moved in different directions, unfortunately, she anticipated their moves, hitting two of them as they landed at the same time Kouga aimed and fired, hitting Rin in her stomach. Kouga looked around to see both his teammates were hit; sighing pitifully at their situation.
"This is insane I..." he spun around and shot Jakotsu, whose time had just run out. "I hate you." he pointed his finger at Rin. She smiled smugly
"Blah, blah. Better hurry up, my times almost up." she warned. He stood a moment longer before going in the opposite direction in hopes of finding Sesshomaru and Kohaku. There was no way he could do this alone and if his plan failed again, they would have to rely on Bankotsu.
"All man, we're doomed."
-------------
Kagome dropped silently to the ground. She saw Sango a few meters away. She wasn't sure who was guarding, she jusst hope she could handle it herself. She compeletly froze when a hand clamped down on her shoulder. She looked up and her heart quickly stopped racing when she saw it was Ayame.
"Did you keep the guys busy?" she whispered.
"No they kept me busy. It took me forever to catch Sesshomaru off guard and even then I still got hit by Kohaku." Ayame squatted downnear her. "So you gonna get her or do you want me too?" Kagome worked her mouth as she thought about it.
"No I'll get her. You distract whoever's guarding ok?" Ayame nodded as she watched Kagome run off ahead. She crouched down in the shadows closing the gap. She was having so much fun. She'd never done this before, only hearing it about it from Sango, her brother and Kohaku, insisting that she try it some day. Just like her training, it kept her adrenline going. Planning out movement, not knowing when your enemy was going to strike. Paintballs came directly her path. Trying her best not to scream she evaded them. She waited until she heard gun shoots in the distance; figuring it was Ayame, she quickly go up, charging towards the jail ,where Sango was being held.
"It's about damn time." She exclaimed when Kagome tagged her. "Do you know my own flesh and blood put me in there?" she stated as she hooked her gun on her back.
"Doesn't matter. My plan's working perfectly." Kagome bragged following Sang's actions. Both girls ran at a steady pace back to their side as they saw Ayame having a one on one battle with Bankotsu. They moved so they came in his line of vision just long enough to distract so Ayame could hit him directly.
"Damn." he muttered softly as he watched, baffled, as the girls ran back, away from the flag.
"What are they planning?"
The girls made it back to their side just in time as both Rin and Jakotsu were running to meet them.
"Everything's set." Rin announced trying to catch her breath at the same time.
"Yeah. Let's hurry." Kagome directed; everyone scattered, finding their places.
-----------
"Rin's not allowed to play with us ever unless she's on our side." Kouga ordered as he, Sesshomaru and Kohaku ran towards the jail. He was irritated; this 'war' was taking longer then expected. First, all three of them had to go and get the remaining team out of jail, then they all had to go back, which would take about another ten minutes if they hurry. This wasn't sitting well with him; Rin and Jakotsu could have taken him and the others out. Rin was way better then her performance today, he knew that for a fact and that guy, he didn't even sense him until he was on top of him.
"Something's wrong." He never reduce his speed as he heard Kohaku's reply
"What's wrong?"
"It's too easy. We haven't been shot at yet and we're at the jail." he skidded to a halt, dust kicking at their heels as they all tagged their partners. Kohaku was right, it was too easy.
"Shit! They were toying with us." Kouga responded, his voice mixed with anger and annoyance. " We have to get back, they're going to get our..."
RING RING RING RING
"Fuck!" they all said together as they ran as they could to their side of the field.
-------------
Sango ran as fast as she could. The bell had already sounded and she had to het back to her side. She zig-zagged through trees and bushes in hopes that it would throw off her opponent. Sadly, she didn't get far as 3 balls came in contact with her back. She stopped, raising her hands in surrender as rapid footsteps came closer.
"Alright where's the flag?" Bankotsu asked. Sango gave him an innocent look
"What flag? I odn't have it." stifling a kaugh as she saw his shocked face. Indeed, he did have the wrong person.
"Damn, damn, damn." he cursed as he continued to run. Sango laughed softly as she jogged towards the finish line.
------------------------
The guys crossed over just in time to get Rin and Ayame right before the crossed over, however they too didn't have the flag. Frustrated by the whole thimg they split up into two team, each going in opposite directions. Inuyasha, Kohaku, and Kouga searched the east side, not missing any movment with sharp intense eyes.
"There!" Kohaku announced shooting in the direction of the figure alll of them racing ahead, catching the enemy with ease.
"The flag Jakotsu." Kouga held out his hand but all Jakotsu di was shrug his shoulders.
"You've got to be kidding me." Inuyasha exasperated.
"Did you get it?" Bankotsu asked.
"No" he lightly shoved Jakotsu who gladly moved out of the way. "Who'd you get out?"
"Rin, Ayame, and Kagome." Sesshomaru responed.
"We got Jakotsu, who's left?"
"ARRIBA! ARRIBA!" echoed through the air.
"Souta!!" Everyone ran to get him. They had totally forgotten about him. But how? It didn't matter, shoot first and ask questions later was on everyone's mind at that point. Shots rang through the air as paintballs flew past Souta, who was speeding recklessly through the forests. He fell twice which actually saved him. The bad part was he was on his own; no one could help him. He was almost there, he could feel it. He could also feel 6 angry demons coming after him. He just had to have enemies that hated to lose. He dodged more paint as he zig-zagged behind the trees never once stopping. He turned around to see how close they were; All of them, angry, eyes wild, teeth bared as if they were ready to devour him, at least that's what his imagination was telling him.
"AHHHH!!!" he ran faster until he came in contact with somthing soft and warm. He looked down to see that he had collided with Ayame.
"Get. Off." he did so quickly only to be pummeled by his sister.
"Oh... you did it. We won!" she cheered, giving him another forcful embrace.
"The hell?" Inuyasha grunted. "How did we miss you? How did you get passed us?" They never lost a game before and this squirt beat him.
"It's nothing fasinating really." Kagome began, "While you were worried about Rin and Jakotsu getting you out and getting your flag, Souta's been sneaking on the side of the field frome the beginning." The guys stared at her, waiting for her to continue.
"That's it? Just sneaking on the side?" Kouga was pissed.
"Yeah and while you guys wer chasing us thinking we had the flag, Souta was getting a head start." For the exception of Miroku, everyone was fuming, they had lost to a bunch of girls and a kid!
"Good game ladies." Miroku congratulated them. He felt his team drill holes in the back of his head but he shrugged them off. "You all had fun?" Directing his question to Sango then anyone.
"Surprisingly yes." she answered with a smile. Date #1 was successful.
"Well then, why don't we..."
"Best 2 outa 3" Inuyasha dared.
"You wanna play again?" Rin asked.
"Yeah we do." This wasn't what Miroku planned.
"I don't know guys, the girls look tired." he began.
"We're in." Kagome completely ignored him.
"Good. This time where switching partners. Rin's on our side. Miroku you go on their's." Kouga ordered.
"Hey. Why me?"
"Because he said so. Traitor. Congratulating the enemy." Sesshomaru said Miroku put a mock surprised look
"Me? a tratior. Never." Everyone laughed including him.
"Miroku! Look out!" Sango screamed instinctively, she pushed him out of harms way. Everyone watched in horror as a hooked blade impaled itself into her back.
"Sango! No!" Kagome watched helplessly as her best friend slip into unconsciousness.
