Chapter 10 – Kirara's Miracle
Well, this is it – the last chapter of Miracle! For all of you that have read it the whole way through, this all goes out to you! I love you all! And let's wrap up the Kirara/ Sango, drama, shall we? Kirara's POV
Disclaimer; Seriously, haven't I said this already? I DO NOT own Inuyasha, or Cascada – if I did I'd be stinkin' filthy rich. Seeing as I am not…
"BAKA NEKO!" Inuyasha thundered. "Would you pick your hairy ass off the ground and let's get moving! We have to find Naraku! Sango, that goes for you too!"
"I'm coming." Sango struggled to her feet, leaning heavily on the Hiraikotsu. "I can walk, I'm fine."
In an instant, Miroku, Kagome and I immediately blocked her path, forming a solid wall of freakishly stubborn comrades who didn't want her walking.
"You are in no condition to even move, Sango!" Kagome barked.
"Here," Miroku said more gently, "ride on Kirara until you feel better."
Now Sango turned to me, brushing hair out of her cocoa eyes and saying, "Is that okay, Kirara? I don't want to tire you or anything."
I was really enjoying this newfound prestige, I'll tell you that. They treated me like one of the group – it was definitely much better this way. Still, even if Sango hadn't asked me, I would've done it anyway. I purred and lowered myself to the ground as Miroku scooped her up in his arms. She giggled like a little girl, and Kagome rolled her eyes. The engagement was back on – we found that out when Inuyasha, Shippou and I walked in on Miroku and Sango making up for one day of lost time by making out like a pair of eels in Sango's sleeping bag. I can't deny that I was a little jealous, but it'd had my time with the houshi – and in his arms was where Sango belonged. As he lifted her onto my back, his hand found my fur, and he gave me a deep rub. I purred, and he merely smiled that sexy smile at me before patting Sango on the back and making sure she was situated. But I didn't start walking yet…the whole group was waiting for it…his hand was moving down her back…3…2…1…
SMACK. We all winced as Sango instantly went into her rant – "I am NOT one of your cheap whores, you filthy two-timing monk! You better listen to me, you can go back to being interspecies with my cat, if you do that again, I will never look at you AGAIN, do you understand me!"
I growled at her, and Miroku grinned again and said, "Now, Sango, we've been through this…I actually enjoyed being interspecies with your cat, and I'm sure she enjoyed it as well – so why don't you accept that you do love me and I will stop groping your ass and not go interspecies on you, alright?"
I gave a self-satisfied purr at the pouting look on her face and started walking. Inuyasha, Kagome and Shippou were rolling their eyes at us. It'd only been a day after we defeated the youkai – Inuyasha wouldn't let us waste any time on our search for Naraku. In his eyes, we'd been detained long enough. Neither Sango nor I were fully back to health, but Sango was in much worse shape than me. It was a very good thing the engagement to Miroku was back on, because he catered to her every whim while she was down and out. I was prancing around between Inuyasha's and Kagome's laps, getting all the attention and rubs a little cat should deserve. I definitely missed the rub-downs. One of the very important lessons I learned as a human – it's fine to get petted when you're a cat, but when you're a human, unless it's Miroku who's rubbing you, they'll just sell you off for some cheap whore. (I learned that one the hard way in a restaurant – no wonder Sango calls him a perv.)
My steps settled into a rhythm. I was used to Sango riding on my back, but getting back into the habit of walking on four legs was making me kind of unsteady. I felt Sango's warm breath on my neck as she leaned in close to my ear and whispered,
"Hey, Kirara…"
I mewed.
"Did you really enjoy going interspecies with Miroku? Cause if you did, I'll smash that bastard of a houshi straight to hell."
I could have smiled. All I did was purr and lick her cheek, and she sighed and said, "I guess I'll never get to find out again, will I?"
""Day and night, I'm always by your side
Cause I know for sure my love is real, my feelings pure
So take a try; no need to ask me why,
Cause I know it's true – I'm still in love with you…""
I looked up at the pure blue sky and smiled. No, Sango, I thought, you won't be able to find out again. Because the miracle of this past week wasn't what I gained as a human – it was what I realized I loved as a cat. And you can bet that won't change for a long time.
""I need a miracle, I want to be your girl,
Give me a chance to see that you were made for me,
I need a miracle, please let me be your girl,
One day you'll see it can happen to me, can happen to me…""
