The seven sins,
Each a flaw in everyone of us
Pride
Sesshomaru walked calmly through the pouring rain not taking notice of the three that followed him. Jaken muttered to himself as he trudged through the mud and Rin gazed around at the trees from her perch on Ah-Uns back.
"Lord Sesshomaru where might we be going?" Rin asked looking ahead at him.
"Silence Rin! Sesshomaru has no need to answer a lowly human like you!" Jaken said turning and waving his staff at the girl.
"Jaken." Sesshomaru said calmly and Jaken huffed and turned around again.
"Such impudence from the little wretch." He muttered to himself. Why does my lord still keep this human girl? He has no need of any further vassels with me around! He thought puffing out his chest. He chose me to use and guard this staff of two heads and no one else! I have followed him for so long, nearly a century! Surely there is no one who is as loyal as I?
Sesshomaru stopped and Jaken walked into his leg, so deep was he in his own thoughts. Sesshomaru barely spared a glance for the small imp who ran into him and turned his face to the side as a demon approached.
"Heehee, you must be the 'Lord' Sesshomaru." He said drooling as he talked. He addressed Sesshomaru but was staring at Rin.
Rin sat motionless on Ah-Un's back staring in fear at the giant beast of a demon with wide eyes. Jaken laughed and strode forward waving his staff, now was his chance to prove how well he served his lord. "Lord Sesshomaru this demon is not deserving of your attention. Even I can handle this low demon."
The demon laughed and batted the small imp away before he had gotten close. "If this is the strength of your servants, I fear you must be weak indeed." He charged at Rin, "I think I'll let you live but I shall take this human for my meal."
He had barely gone a step when he was suddenly hacked to pieces. Sesshomaru lowered his hand and glanced at Rin. "Are you alright?"
"Yes my lord." She said happily. She knew Sesshomaru would never allow anything to harm her. She knew that it might not have been love of her that made him do it but so long as he let her follow him she would.
Jaken picked himself up from where he landed. Damn it! I failed again. He muttered darkly to himself that it was entirely the girls' fault, if she hadn't been there the demon wouldn't have come to eat her and he wouldn't have been hurt. He looked up to see that they were walking away leaving behind. "Wa-wait for me my lord!" He yelled and scrambled to catch up.
Alright guys, what do you think of the first chapter? Each chapter will be different characters.
The question: Who suffers from the sin of pride most in this?
Please review! I want to know if its worth doing the other six!
