Summary: Miroku has a strange reaction to the medicine he finds in Kagome's bag.
Throat sore from the cold he had been battling for weeks, Miroku was in desperate need of something to sooth it. Weakly getting up from his sick bed, the monk walked over to Kagome’s bag to see if she had brought back the peppermint tea he loved so much with her. Finding a baggie with strange looking herbs inside, Miroku was relieved that he had finally found what he was looking for.
Grabbing the sandwich bag, the monk shuffled over to the table in Kaede’s hut and grabbed a mortar and pestle. After crushing the herbs a little, Miroku pour them along with some hot water into a large cup. Sitting back down on his futon, the monk relaxed as he took a swig of the foul tasting liquid. Grimacing at the taste, the monk continued to drink from the cup, hoping that it would sooth his burning throat.
Sip after sip, the world around Miroku began to change into odd shapes and images. Suddenly the walls turned into chocolate and floor into candy. He was about to lick the ground when the chairs began to dance around him. As the furniture continued moving, a candlestick began to sing Ozzy Osborne’s “Paranoid.” It was about to reach the chorus of the song when Inuyasha stepped inside the hut to check on his lover.
Finding a naked Miroku prancing around the hut, the hanyou began to wonder if his boyfriend had developed a fever. As the hanyou tried to get close feel his lover’s forehead, the monk quickly danced away from him. Executing a prefect pirouette, Miroku began to sing along with the candlestick.
“And so as you hear these words…Telling you now of my state…I tell you to enjoy life…I wish I could but it's too late.”
“Miroku, are you okay,” Inuyasha asked worriedly.
“I am fine Inuyasha but why am I wearing a pink tutu,” he asked with a giggle.
Thinking there was something truly wrong with the monk, the hanyou stuck his head out of the hut’s doorway and screamed, “Kagome I need your help!”
Hearing the panic in Inuyasha’s voice, the miko quickly ran inside the small dwelling. Blushing at the sigh of a very naked Miroku, Kagome looked away. Seeing her bag on the ground, she noticed that is was opened. Face turning pale, the miko remembered what Hojo had given to her just before she had left for the feudal era. After her grandpa had told the young man that she had glaucoma, Hojo had given her a baggie filled with marijuana. At the time she had quickly stuffed in her bag,. Unfortunately for Kagome, she had forgotten to get rid of it.
“Is there anything we can do for him,” Inuyasha asked worriedly.
“Um, nothing a little sleep wouldn’t cure,” she lied.
“Yasha, I am hungry! Do we have any Cheetos,” Miroku whined.
“Miroku please lay down and get some rest,” the hanyou pleaded.
“But I want you,” the monk said as he began to undress his lover.
With Inuyasha busy dealing with the amorous, high monk, Kagome quietly snuck out of the hut. Hearing Miroku shout out Inuyasha’s name, the miko quickly made her way to freedom. Safely making it to Sango’s hut, Kagome breathe a sigh of relief.
Hoping the two never found out her part in the monk’s little aliment, the miko decided to politely turn Hojo down the next time her offered her marijuana. It wasn't like she really needed it. When the monk was finally drug free, Kagome continued to keep her mouth shut. After all she wanted to live past the age of 16.
And the candlestick, you may ask. Well I hear that he might be trying out for American Idol next year...
