No Surrender: Tragic swordsman, Yuukanmaru
*episode 11*

“Would you bear my child…lady Kikyo?”
She hesitates for a moment, then nods her assent. Miroku’s arms surround her; their hungry mouths press against each other. As the pounding of the waterfall forms a backdrop, their hands roam, each seeking the other’s flesh, concealed by priestly garments not crafted with this in mind. As they work to rectify their lack of exposed skin, Miroku hears the half-demon, “Miroku! Hey Miroku! Wake up!” Miroku says, “I am awake Inuyasha, I was…meditating.” The monk is sitting, facing the waterfall, Inuyasha is behind him. Inuyasha says, “Ya, whatever. Look, we came to get you. Kagome and Kagura are waiting. Come on.” As the monk stands up, Inuyasha turns and heads back. The monk hurries and takes up a pace a few steps behind the half-demon. He asks, “Sango didn’t come?” Inuyasha says, “Lucky for you. She’s gonna kill you this time.” They reach the hut, and with it, Kagome and Kagura. The later is hiding behind the former for obvious reasons. Kagome asks, “Miroku, what happened to you?” Inuyasha turns, taking his first look at the monk’s front. He has a massive black eye, covering most of half his face. Curious, Kagura steps out from behind Kagome. As she stares at the monk’s face, it inclines and his eyes roam up and down her nearly naked legs. Smack. Kagome says, “I think it’s safe to say how he got that!” Miroku rubs his cheek and says, “Nothing so glamorous. I slipped by the waterfall. Come now, if there had been a woman here, Inuyasha would smell her. Do you?” Inuyasha looks puzzled. He says, “This whole place smells weird. I smell plants and animals and the four of us. I also smell the dirt. I guess it’s the mud from the river, but I thought…no, forget it. Anyway, there ain’t been humans here for weeks, demons longer.” Kagura says, “Looks like he’s just a klutz. Let’s go.” Inuyasha give one more sniff before stepping close to the rest of them.
