Well, this fanfiction I wrote because I thought it would be humorous, and I LOVE the Sango-Miroku pairing. Mee Hee Hee. I'm evil! Anywho . . .
Happy Halloween! By The By, I don't know if Halloween is celebrated in Japan, so don't yell at this stupid American.
------ Chapter One: The Invitation ------
Sango sat in class, only half listening to her teacher drone on about the square route of 7. It wasn't that she hated math, but damn, who cared?! As the teacher passed out a test, she daydreamed about what she would dress as to the school's Halloween party. Kagome had run up to her during lunch, almost running Inuyasha down in her haste to reach the table.
---LUNCH---
"Sango, did you hear that the school is having a Halloween dance this Saturday? Are you going? Please tell me you're going to this one. You didn't go last year."
From behind her, a non-too-pleased Inuyasha jumped up. "Kagome!" Ah, yes, that was his 'Why you!' tone of voice. "What'd you do that for?"
The clueless girl looked back at the annoyed boy with eyes that feigned confusion. "Huh? Inuyasha? What are you talking about?" Brushing off her angry boyfriend, Kagome turned back to Sango while he fumed in the background. "So, will you go?"
"I don't know, Kagome. Mostly people bring dates to parties, right?" Sango asked, twirling a lock of hair that had fallen free around her finger.
Kagome shrugged as she sat down, taking a sip of Inuyasha's soda. "You can if you want to. Other times you can just go with friends." Holding out an arm toward the small group of people standing around their table. "Example A. Us." Inuyasha, Kagome, Kouga, Kikyo, Houjo and Miroku. (A/N No, Kagome three school friends are not in the story. Reasons1. I don't know their names, 2. They don't help much with the plot.) It seemed a bit unfair, two girls and three boys. She and Kagome had more guy friends than girls. And that wasn't including Shippo, Sesshoumaru and their brothers.
---END OF LUNCH---
Sango sighed. Maybe she would go. After all, Kagome was right, parties could be a group of friends, not just dates. Even if she did have Inuyasha, Kagome went because she found parties to be much more fun than sitting at home watching T.V.
If she went, she could just have some fun. She didn't have enough fun anymore, not after the accident. Kohaku could go with them, she thought. After all, the school was letting all the students bring their families for the candy giveaway. She already knew the Kikyo was bringing Sesshoumaru, who was bringing Rin, which was the reason Souta was going, so Kohaku wouldn't be alone in his age group. (A/N Man, I hope Rin is their age!)
While class finished up, Sango decided she'd ask Kohaku if he wanted to go. If not, she wouldn't. If he did she'd suck it up and go. Not like there was much else to do at home. As she walked out of class, she bumped into someone who hurried off before she could apologize. Man, since being voted Second Hottest girl in school, either no one would talk to her out of fear of being rejected, or everyone would try to talk to her at once. And she'd be damned if it wasn't getting annoying!
Finally reaching her locker, Sango turned the lock once space left as she always set it and pulled. To her surprise, it didn't open. With a sigh she turned it around and played with the combination. Still, it wouldn't open. Giving up, she hurried off to class. She'd deal with it after class.
Sure enough, it opened when she asked someone else to try. This happened all the time, which was way she'd started keeping one line left from the final number. Inside, she saw an envelope. Pink, with a touch of silver and gold trim. It said her name in large curvy gold letters. The letter inside had been typed on a computer, but the little hearts and angels were, no doubt, hand drawn. Also inside was a small silver necklace with a pretty little jewel on it. (Yes, the Shikon-no-tama look-alike. It's all the rage now-a-days!)
"Hmm." Sango practically jumped into the air when Inuyasha and Miroku appeared over her shoulder. They both did jump in the air when she screamed. "What the hell are you doing behind me, you freaks!" She threw the paper in her locker, retrieved her books and stomped off down the hall with both boys in tow, apologizing.
Ok, so maybe she hadn't gotten a chance to read the letter, he thought as a watched her walk away. But, there was still three more days before the party. And he was determined to get her to go.
At last! Kagome thought, stretching and laughing at the story Kouga had been telling since lunch. It was one they'd all heard a million times, before, but it was still as funny as ever. Though it could use some touching up. A lot of the story still didn't fit together in her mind. A half-demon with a fang for a sword? Come on! How could a fang be forged into a sword? And why would his father give up so many fangs? In the story, he used like eight to make swords, trap demons and all kinds of other stuff.
She just didn't believe it.
"Sango!" Kouga called as they walked toward her locker. She had been about to read something when the boy had yelled out. She smiled and closed her locker, this time keeping the note with her.
"Whatja got there?" Inuyasha asked, trying to sneak a peak at the words. He was quickly hit on the head by Kagome.
Sango shrugged. "I don't know. It was in my locker, but I haven't gotten a chance to read it all day."
Kagome smiled. "Let me see?" Sango handed over the envelope and waited as she read it aloud. "Dear Lady-," it started, the letters dark red against the pink paper. "Your beauty I have seen, your laugh like rain in the desert of my soul. Cleansing and sweet." Inuyasha rolled his eyes and groaned. "You I have watched, too afraid to ask the question burning me up inside. As you surely know, this Saturday is the Halloween celebration at school. I would be greatly honored if you would grant me the pleasure of your company. Meet me at the gates of the school at midnight. Please, my lady Sango, I ask you to dress as if a fairy tale princess, for I wish to be the prince to make all your wishes come to life. Dearly –H."
It took her only a moment to realize that the boys were laughing. "'Your laugh like rain in the desert of my soul!'" Kouga laughed. "Real original! Why not just put 'Roses are Red'!"
Inuyasha had doubled over laughing and Miroku had leaned against the wall and was wiping away tears when Kagome hit all three with her books. "At least this guy knows what a girl wants to hear! Bakas!"
Sango looked down at the invitation. The person had signed the 'H', but that wasn't enough to know if she knew whose handwriting it was. With a little sigh, she turned to Kagome, whom was currently kicking butt. "I'm gonna go home, Kagome. I'll see you tomorrow."
"Bye." She called after Sango. As Sango walked away, Kagome know something other than her 'romantic stalker' was wrong.
I know it was short, but I have to go to bed. BUT, the next will be longer! I promise! Tell me what you think! Anywho, Peace and Love, Inc. ,V
