Chapter 2: Feelings Appear (Revised)

 

 

 

Sango followed silently at the rear of the group as they headed north to another village with a rumor of a jewel shard. Worriedly, Kagome glanced back at Sango.

“Do you think she'll be like this for long?” She asked Miroku, who was walking beside her.

Miroku glanced back also, turning his violet gaze to Kagome's worried face. “I honestly don't know…she has lost all of her family in a short time so you have to give her time…but I hope she gets better soon because I don't like her in this state of depression; you don't know what she is capable of doing now.”

Kagome's chestnut brown eyes widened a bit.

“Do you mean she might try to kill herself?”

“I cannot say.” He sighed and fell silent, emerged in his own troubled thoughts.

Inuyasha's silver ears twitched slightly, hearing his companions' conversation.

`Would she really try to kill herself?' Inuyasha shook his head slightly, shrugging off the suggestion. `No, not Sango. She is too proud to be so cowardly; plus she wants to avenge her family.'

Inuyasha's ears flattened when he heard Kagome's shrill voice call out his name. He slowly turned to face the rest of the group, his amber eyes immediately falling on Sango at the rear.

“What do you want Kagome?” He grunted impatiently.

“Inuyasha, I think we should stop for the night. I don't want Sango to overwork herself now, especially in her state.”

Inuyasha huffed folding his arms. “So what, she's a warrior. She can take it.” He stated matter-of-factly.

“Inuyasha…” Kagome said a warning present in her voice.

“Feh! Whatever, we'll stop for the weak wench.” He huffed and then walked over to a tree, jumping to one of the higher branches and settling himself in it.

“Thank you, Inuyasha.” Kagome smiled gratefully at him and then turned to start setting up camp.

Sango stopped and quietly watched Kagome and Miroku set up camp. `They stopped because they thought I couldn't go on anymore…we could have gone a lot further; it's not even dark yet…but they thought I couldn't make it…they would be better off without me tagging along…'

Sango lowered her emotionless eyes in shame.

Sango adjusted Hiraikotsu on her back, favoring her still wounded shoulder, and started to head into the forest. Before she could make it to the edge of the forest, she was stopped when Inuyasha jumped in front of her, his amber eyes glaring into her own ginger eyes.

“And where do you think you're going off to?”

Sango's eyes narrowed into dangerous slits. “None of your business; now get out of my way.” She said, pushing past Inuyasha.

He grabbed her wrist as she passed him; but before he could let out another word, she whipped around and pressed her katana against his throat.

“Don't touch me, Inuyasha. I don't see why it's any of your business where I go or when I go. I'm not your property! I'm not your friend!” Sango hissed into Inuyasha's sensitive ears.

All movement ceased, everything pausing in silent anticipation.

Sango turned, sheathing her katana; she walked into the shadows of the forest, leaving a stunned silence in her wake.

Inuyasha's amber eyes followed her every move until she was out of his sight. His clawed hand slowly made its way to his neck where there was still a red mark from her sword.

`She has guts if she thinks she can talk to me that way and just walk away.' He looked up as Miroku came toward him.

“What was that all about?” Miroku questioned.

Inuyasha's eyes narrowed; a glint of determination lit his golden orbs. “I don't know but I'm going to get some answers.” Inuyasha said, springing into the trees above.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

 

She couldn't believe she had yelled at him, she knew she had lost control of her emotions. She sighed dejectedly. `I had to do it. If I didn't, I would feel like I betrayed them.'

Sango kept walking until she reached a small clearing where she let Hiraikotsu and her katana fall to the soft grass.

Lying down, Sango closed her eyes; letting her thoughts drift back to all her locked memories.

 

Flashes of Kohaku's smiling innocent face danced behind her closed eyes. Then the painful memories of Kohaku's blank stare, his sneering face, his sparkling eyes fading as he died.

Sango felt the sting of tears as she was bombarded with all her painful memories, the good and the bad.

“Kohaku…how can I stay in this world without the hope of getting you back?” Sango asked herself quietly, opening her eyes once again to stare at the lights of the night sky.

“I don't even feel alive anymore without you in this world. Who I am…it's all dead to me…what is my purpose?”

“To avenge your family.” A deep voice echoed from the shadows around the clearing.

Sango jumped in surprise but quickly got to her feet, her sharp eyes piercing the darkness, looking for the voice's owner. She finally relaxed a bit as she saw Inuyasha silently step out into the moonlight.

Sango gazed at the hanyou as the moonlight reflected off his long silver hair, and as his golden eyes turned into dark amber.

`He's so beautiful.' whispered through her.

Sango's eyes widened as she realized what she had just thought. `What am I saying? This is Inuyasha… I've never even thought of him that way…'

Sango shook her head as if to shake her disturbing thoughts out of her mind, and pushed her thoughts and emotions back into the depths of her being, putting on her façade.

“What do you want, Inuyasha?” Sango asked in a cool voice as she lay back down.

He shrugged. “Nothing, just walking around.”

Sango let out a snort.

“Yeah right, since when do you, the great Inuyasha, just walk around?” She sneered. “What's your real reason?”

“Like I said, just walking around.” Inuyasha sat, crossing his arms in the process.

“What are you doing out here?” Inuyasha asked closing his eyes.

Sango glanced over at the sitting hanyou and then turned her gaze back to the stars.

“I don't know… just thinking, I guess…trying to sort out all these jumbled feelings in my head.” Sango said with a sigh, letting her mask slip a notch.

Inuyasha's ears twitched and he opened his eyes to look at her.

“I want you to know that you're not alone in this. You have friends, we want to help you.”

Sango lowered her head. “I don't want to drag everyone into my problems. I've already made you guys suffer enough, I can't stand to put you through more then I already have.”

Sango abruptly got to her feet and brushed herself off.

“I'm going to head back to camp.” She lied and turned towards the camp.

Inuyasha sat and watched her retreating back until she disappeared in the undergrowth.

“Why do I feel so protective of her?” He frowned. “It's probably just because she is part of our group and a good fighter.” He assured himself.

Then he felt the wind change directions and Sango's scent reached him, with it the scent of blood. He looked up, realizing her scent was coming from the opposite direction of the campsite.

Inuyasha got to his feet and followed the scent.

“Damn Sango I have to save your ass again!”
