“Miroku what are you doing?” Inuyasha ran up to Miroku, who was frantically trying to find Sango in the castle.
 
“I have to find Sango.” He ran into the dining hall to find Saturn and Uranus staring at him as if he was a mad lunatic. “Where's… Sango?” Miroku was trying to gasp for air as he looked at the two warriors with desperation. They shrugged.
 
“What's the emergency?” Saturn cocked her head to the side wondering if Miroku was going to pass out in front of her.
 
“I need to find her.” Miroku ran out of the room and almost plowed Sun over. “Sorry.” He ran until he found himself in the throne room. `Where is she?' Swanalow emerged from the side of the room.
 
“Can I help you Miroku?” Swanalow noticed how tired the young monk was and hoped that he wouldn't faint in front of her.
 
“Have…you…seen…Sango?” Miroku tried to catch his breath but it was no use.
 
“She's in the garden with Moonstriker.” Swanalow pointed to the open glass doors that led out to the courtyard. Miroku didn't hesitate as he ran out of the room to find Sango.
 
“Sango!!”
 
“Hey Miroku.” Sango and Moonstriker turned to see Miroku, Inuyasha, and Saturn coming towards them.
 
“Sango I need to talk to you.” Miroku grabbed Sango by her arm and pulled her away from Moonstriker.
 
“What's going on Saturn?” Moonstriker looked at her cousin then back to Miroku and Sango.
 
“Just wait and see.” Saturn smiled as she watched Miroku come to a stop near a small rose bush.
 
“What's going on Miroku?” Sango looked at the monk with concern on her face.
 
“Sango, I…I…” Miroku saw that Moonstriker and the others were watching him and he was suddenly couldn't think of the words he was trying to say. Moonstriker noticed his embarrassment.
 
“Hey Saturn, Inuyasha. I need to show you something.” Moonstriker nodded her head to the right as she winked. Inuyasha and Saturn got her hint and turned away to follow her. Once they were alone Miroku grabbed one the roses from the bush and handed it to Sango.
“Sango, I want you to know that I really care about you.”
 
“Well I know that Miroku. We're friends after all.”
 
“No I mean…well how do I put this…I love you Sango.” He looked away waiting for the pain to come.
 
“What did you say?” Sango just stood in shock as she felt her face grow hot.
 
“I love you, Sango.” Sango didn't know what to do. She knew she should tell him how she felt but she was speechless.
 
“Miroku?” Miroku looked at Sango not realizing how close they were standing next to each other. Then out of the blue Moonstriker bumped into Sango causing their lips to meet.
 
“Sorry.” But Moonstriker's apology didn't reach them. Miroku was in shock at first but he deepen the kiss as Sango wrapped her arms around his neck. They felt like they could stay that way for eternity, but as they ran out of oxygen they knew that would have to part.
 
After parting from each other Miroku realized that Saturn, Moonstriker, and Inuyasha were staring at them. A smirk grew across Inuyasha's face. “Well Miroku…”
 
“Don't even say it Inuyasha.” Saturn glared at the hanyou as if to warn him. Moonstriker smiled as she passed the couple to return throne room. Saturn hurried to catch up with her.
 
“One down…” Moonstriker looked at Saturn.
 
“One to go.” Saturn and Moonstriker giggled as they entered the throne room. They then separated to find the other s to tell them.
 
Meanwhile…
 
Outside the valley in the forest of Shadows the creatures watched as Katana and Arrow shifted uneasily knowing that something was wrong. “Soon we will strike. We take the girl that has been with the Ancient Warrior and Snowflake. She is the key to our victory. Kill the others if necessary.” The other creatures nodded to their leader. “But first things first. Kill those two once night come so we can enter the valley unnoticed.”
 
The creatures waited for night to come watching the two young unicorns who were unaware of their soon to be death.
