Hello all! Here is another chapter!
Chapter 13: The past
The woman identified as Sango smiled when she spotted her friend and all but ran towards the girl. The only thing truly stoping her was the large belly and the man at her side putting a comforting yet strong reminder grip on her arm. Miroku continued towards the group mindful the strangers with their friend. "Lady Kagome what a lovely surprise. Who are your friends!" The monk questioned once the women embraced and let go, Kagome gave the monk a hug before speaking. "This is Kakashi and Zabuza, they are the reason I have traveled so early to see you." The monk nodded respectfully to each before raising a brow at the Miko. It wasn't everyday that Kagome was lost on what to do.
"You see they kinda were brought here... And I am not sure if it was from the well or something else." At her statement her mind processed her rude behavior and introduced Miroku and Sango to them. They all conversed on the way back to the slayers village or, well all but Zabuza as he stood in silence. Reminding the married couple of a certain Lord of the West. The village was thriving once more with slayers and simple merchants. It warmed the mikos heart at seeing her friends home once more full of life. As the group walked by the people stopped and noticed the bubbly girl they owed their peace too. Slowly everyone started to bow down to the priestess. It caused the strange males to raise a brow at. The monk chuckled softly as he began to explain a little bit about their traveling companion.
"Lady Kagome is a special person, the carrier of the famous Shikon jewel and also the one that shattered it into million of shards." At their confused expression the monk continued on. "Long ago before any of us were born a great battle was taking place, a warrior priestess by the name of Midoriko had been battling a great evil and was slowly beginning to lose. So she made the greatest sacrifice to save the unknowing world. Trapping her soul and the soul of three demons inside of her heart, creating the Shikon it holds the great power and is rumored to have been able to grant a single wish. Years later the jewel was trusted to a priestess named Kikyo." The recognition that sparked in their eye was not lost on the monk. "Kikyo protected the jewel till she was brutally killed by a half demon disguised as her love Inu-yasha, and by your looks I have come to take it you have met the pair." Their nod was his cue to continue on. "Kikyo used the last of her strength to seal him to the God's tree and requested the jewel to be burned with her body. Fifty years past, and all thought the jewel was gone forever and then Lady Kagome is brought thru the well her body being the jewels vessel if you will."
"Miroku, why don't you go and make a fire in the hearth, Sango isn't feeling so well and I need to make a broth that will ease her fatigue...you know I told you from the last time not to let her throw it. She's going to over work herself and..." Kagome caught her words and shook her head before heading back into the hut. The monk sighed sadly but turned a cheery smile to the nin's. Telling them he would finish up the tale later he welcomed them to explore the village as he tended to his wife.
