InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ The Bet ❯ Sango's Turn ( Chapter 3 )

Disclaimer: I do not own Inu-Yasha. If I did this would be an actual story and Kikyo would not be as big of problem as she is (sorry but I'm a Kikyo hater!) Anyway you know the rest and enjoy.

The Bet

The morning sun awoke Kagome to find herself now on the cold ground with her sleeping bag put over her. She tried to remember how she had gotten there. When she came to recall about how she fell asleep a blush crept on to her already hot-from-the-sun face.

It's my turn now Houshi-sama." Sango whispered to Miroku as the group continued to walk back to Kaede's village. "Best of wishes to you Sango dearest." Was the houshi's only reply.

The day went on with little discussion. Passing the forest everyone began to grow hungry. Kagome left to fill he kettle with water and everyone waited for her to return.

"I'm going to win." Sango whispered to Miroku in a low provocative voice. "And how will you do that?" Miroku asked opening one eye from his resting pose. A small smirk was her only reply. Shippo looked on, he wondered what Sango was scheming, Inu-Yasha wondered the same. He was hanyou, a dog hanyou, he could hear everything the taiya was saying.

Kagome finally found a small pond just when Inu-Yasha wanted to have some fun and pick a fight with a low-class youkai. (Gomen, but I'm no good at writing fight scenes!)

She continued to fill and prepare the food, as Inu-Yasha fought with the youkai. He took his time and didn't put any power into it; he wanted to have some fun.

Shippo, Sango and Miroku just watched. With her hirakotsu at her side her plan for a fight unraveled.

Silently she picked up her weapon and skillfully aimed it at Kagome and unleashed it. At the chosen angle it only hit Kagome's shoulder knocking her into the pond she sat by.

Inu-Yasha made a clean swipe with his tessuisaiga and easily killed the youkai just in time to see Kagome surface.

"Opps…"Was all Sango said. She turned around facing her back to Inu-Yasha and Kagome, her side at Miroku. She looked at him through the corner of her eye and repeated in a low taunting, "I'm going to win."

"I'm all wet!" Kagome cried. She sat in the water, which was shallow enough to do so. Miroku could see were this would go. Kagome would continue to cry and Inu-Yasha would most likely start to yell that a little water never killed anyone, not even the weakest of humans. She pulled herself out of the water and sat on her knees, back bent over to hid her tear filled eyes.

Inu-Yasha turned back to the sobbing girl and began to walk toward her. Here it comes, Miroku thought turning his head away seeing the money was gone.

Inu-Yasha then stopped and ran back to the direction in which Kagome had left her bag.

A few moments later he returned with a pink towel that Kagome usually used for after a bath. He handed it to her along with his haori.

Inu-Yasha picked up the wet girl and leaned her into him and led her a little ways to an area crowed of bushes and trees and there he left her to get dry and change.

Everyone sat around the fire. The only sound that could be heard was the whimper and sob Kagome gave every once and awhile. She was thankful that Inu-Yasha had given her his haori to wear instead of all her dirty clothes that were still in her bag. He must had know, she thought. She brought her knees back to her chest and continued to watch the sleeping hanyou sitting across the fire from her. A blush crept across her face and she turned her face away.

What is wrong with him! Sango thought to herself. Sleep claimed them all, except Sango, and she would not win the money she thought was impossible not to win. Houshi-sama is a hentai no baka, those two won't fight the moment you put them together. That's why he didn't win. But I should have! Why is he even acting like this, he never does. It may be a dream come true for Kagome thought. I'm happy for her…"But why did you have to pick now to change!" Sango yelled at her sleeping companions.

Inu-Yasha opened one eye and gave her a strange look before shutting it again and going back to sleep.

The next morning had come and Shippo, Sango and Miroku were already awake. Kagome continued to sleep in a feedal position and they didn't really know where Inu-Yasha was but it didn't concern them.

"What are we going to do with the extra money now?" Sango asked the houshi. Shippo sat in between them in the grass with a still sleeping Kirara. Miroku and Sango faced each other still trying to decide what to do with the extra earnings. The extra money was held out in Sango's hand. "Well you could have another bet." Shippo suggested.

"No more bets! Besides they were much closer to fighting on my day! I win." Miroku said giving a smug look to Sango.

"No I win!"

Sango and Miroku turned around to see Inu-Yasha jumping out of a tree that had been right above the small shack they had camped out in.

"Don't fight with Kagome for two days wasn't all that easy." He began but stopped when Kagome stepped out of the wooden cabin.

"Did I hear my name?" She asked with a yawn still very tired.

Inu-Yasha slapped the bottom of Sango's hand causing the brown sack to have a small lift in the air. Which he caught.

"Come on Kagome." Inu-Yasha said beginning to walk towards the tired girl.

"Where are we going?" She asked.

"To have a nice feast," He said taking her hand he turned to Miroku and Sango, "Just the two of us."

He pulled her close to him and they began to walk in the direction of a village. Inu-Yasha turned his head slightly back to Sango and Miroku and said in a low voice that the tired girl could not hear, "I win, both ways."

Sango and Miroku stood there unsure of what had happened, and where they were going with the pool money. After awhile Sango looked up and turned to Shippo, "Shippo, did he…" She couldn't complete what she was going to say.

"Yep, he knew."
