Chapter 18

Recap:

"Oh my Kami. They sound TERRIBLE!" Kagome now believed that they were extremely horrid people, and wouldn't mind if they skipped on their supposed visit. But one question was tugging on her mind, "Sango, if you don't mind me asking. How do you know all of this detail?" Sango's eyes became distant and melancholy. Miroku placed and arm around her, and even Inuyahsa looked troubled by the question.

"Did I say something wrong?" Kagome was extremely worried that she offended her friend.

"N-no, Kagome. I'll tell you. You see I was there. Years ago, one of those people in the dungeons…"

Kagome's grew big with sadness and pity for her friend as she watched her eyes become lost. Sango was no longer with them in mind, but rather back to the place that turned her life around.

"I was young and naïve then. All I ever wanted to do was see the wonders of the world. To travel and be free. Ever since I was little I've always wanted to see Japan's mysterious beauty, so I decided to start my journey there…."

Sango's past: (A/N: Anything in bold is Sango from the present)

When I was 18 years old I decided it was time to start my journey. I thought I was old enough to be on my own for a bit. I never intended to stay away from home for too long.

The only person I told my destination to was my old grandmother. She was the only person who truly encouraged me to follow my dreams. All my father and mother wanted was for me to take up the family business.

I remember the last day I ever saw and spoke to her again:

"Sango, my dear grandchild. Come here." Sango paused her packing.

"Yes grandmother?" Her grandmother looked at her one and only grandchild with loving eyes, sadden by the thought of her leaving.

"Oh nothing. I just wanted to talk to you, to be with you before you started your journey. Humor your old grandmother for a bit. Now tell me, where are you headed first?"

Sango paused to think. Sometimes the best places to look were right at home. "Hmmm I was thinking to stay in Japan for awhile to visit Fumetsu Ikameshii Eiko. I've always wanted to go there."

Her grandmother's serene face was replaced with a shocked expression. "Oh no. No no no no Sango. Please, please promise me you'll stay away from that place."

Now it was Sango's turn to be shocked. Her grandmother has always supported her, now she was telling her not to go. Her grandmother must have seen her hurt face for she added, "Sango, you MUST listen to me. That place is evil and dangerous. There has been talk of evil doings there. You must not go! You must never go. Start your journey elsewhere. But if you love me, stay away from that place."

I didn't want to hurt her feelings, or burden her with worry. So I gave her my word. The next morning I took off. I said my goodbyes and started my journey for the world. I truly intended to stay away, but curiosity got the better of me when I heard two people at the market place talking of Fumetsu Ikameshi Eiko.

I didn't know who they were; I've never seen them in my village before. But now that I think about it, they were probably just trying to lure people into going to that wretched place.

"Did you hear?" A man near a stall asked another.

"Hear what?.. I hear lots of things."

"I heard that there's going to be a big celebration at Fumetsu Ikameshi Eiko. I think one of the elders who the towns people call Volturi is throwing himself a birthday party of sorts."

"Woah really? I heard the elders are filthy rich. But they never leave their castle. Nor do people enter… Well expect for those tours that they are always doing."

"Yeah I know. But when the Volturi celebrate something, the entire villages celebrates. They have a big party of there own outside, while the Volturi have their real celebration insde."

"Woah sounds cool."

I didn't need to hear anymore. I was intrigued. Even though I promised my grandmother, I couldn't bring myself to not go. So I thought, why not? Its not like she'll ever know.

So I made my journey there. It took me 3 days to get from my village to the Volturi's land. It was midday when I arrived and people were still bustling around trying to decorate the town for the festivities that would occur at night.

I asked a few townspeople where the Volturi's resided, and eventually found myself paying 4 gold coins to be part of the tour.

Their palace was the most amazing I've ever seen. Beautiful elaborate décor, top notch living style. Then the tour continued to the lower portion of the palace.

"And here we have the dungeons. Come one in everyone don't be shy. Ok, so these cells were made to fit only 5 per cell, but of course many people could commit crimes, so sometimes there were 10-20 in a cell." The tour guide smiled at the group, which Sango was a part of, telling them the amazing history of the palace dungeons. "Fell free to walk around."

In all the commotion of looking around and exploring the dungeons, the tour guide disappeared. Hell broke lose not to long after.

Everyone finally settled down and waited to move on with the tour. After a few moments of waiting and impatient tourist finally spoke up.

"Hey where's the guide? I'm ready to move on!" The crowd began to get rowdy and restless. Just then all forms of light were cut off.

"Hey!!! What's goin' on in here!? Put the lights back on!!"

"Yeah put the light back on!"

"We wanna leave!"

People started shouting, and the children who were in the tour began to cry. In the darkness someone let out a blood curling scream.

"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHH. GET OFF OF ME! HELP! HELP!!!!! HELPPP!!!!!!" The sound of tearing skin could be heard. And the person was silenced. Everyone feared for their lives.

Screams filled the air. Sango found her self crawling on the ground, blindly moving over dead bodies and being soaked in blood.

"Hmmmm what do we have here? Looks like no one has claimed you yet!! I'll make you my dinner then." Sango's blood turned cold. She didn't move. She was frozen in place. She couldn't see his face, but she knew that he was dangerous.

"Now now now. Be good and it won't hurt as much."

The last thing I remember was a stinging pain, and thinking that I should of listened to my grandmother. When I woke up, I was groggy and dizzy. I didn't know where I was, only that there were hundreds of dead people around me. I knew I needed to get out, so with all the energy I could I fled the city.

Back to present

"Luckily for me, it was night time when I escaped. Or else I would have been done for." When Sango finished her, she seemed so sad and crushed.

"Sango, are you ok?" Kagome laid a hand on her friend's shoulder. Sango looked up and smiled at her caring friend.

"Yeah, I'm ok."

"Um…. If you don't mind. Can I ask you a question?"

"Sure Kags anything."

"Well, you said that the Volturi drank their victims dry. So why weren't you?

"Carelessness I guess. Whoever that vampire was didn't pay attention to how much he was drinking. I guess he thought I was done for. But he left just enough blood in me to live. And injected just enough venom in me when he bit me, to turn me into a vampire."

"Ohhh I see. So when did you meet Miroku?" Being reminded of the memory softened Sango's gaze as she looked at her beloved.

"I ran into him right after I fled Fumetsu. I was so thirsty, for what I didn't know. I tired drinking out of the stream, but it didn't help. Then Miroku came."

Sango's Past:

"You know that won't help you right?" A man came out of the shadows and stood by Sango.

"Yeah well what do you know?" Sango sat back and closed her eyes, frustrated and angry

"Well I know that your not a human." Shocked, Sango turned around and looked at him for the first time. He was the most handsome man she has ever laid eyes on. He wore dark purple robes, that look like a monk's usual wear. His dark black hair was pulled into a small, short pony tail at the nape of his neck, and his blue eyes danced with kindess.

"Come, I know just what you need."

Back to present

"He caught a small rabbit for me and told me to drink up. He told me what he, what we were. He helped me understand the vampire's way of life. And we've been together ever since." Sango made her way to Miroku, and gave him a light kiss on the lips. It was quick, but full of love and thanks for him.

"I love you,"

"As I love you, Sango."

And before you know it they were lost in each other's eyes.

"Awhhhh, how cute!" Kagome squealed.

"Ewh… they are so weird when they get mushy."

"Oh hush Inuyasha!!! Don't be jealous cuz Miroku got a kiss and you didn't!" Kagome glared at him.

"Well then I think you should give me one." But instead, he gave her one. And carried her off somewhere within the house so they could be alone.

Ok guys. There you have it. Sango's past. Idk if I should do all of their past. I think that would take forever! But here, here. I finally upadated. Sorry for the long wait.
