Rin's Infatuation
Ch 1:
'We've traveled quite some distance lord Sessomaru. May I ask where we are going,' asked Rin. 'Well I don't know particularly Rin. We have already gotten rid of Ah-Uhn and Jaken's bodies after that dragon scorched them. I suppose we will travel along and see what we find.'
The land they walked along was mountainous and dirt ridden, there was burnt forest wood everywhere.
Sessomaru had noticed Rin's disgust of the ground and thought it best they find shelter quickly for it was beginning to get dark as the new moons began to rise one after the other.
When Sessomaru began to smell clean water and green grass he knew they were close a forest. Picking up Rin onto his shoulder, he began to follow the scent, leaping foreword with incredible speed.
Setting Rin down easily off his shoulder when they reached a grassy clearing surrounded by trees with a canopy cover of tree limbs above them, Sessomaru stood there inspecting the area.
The wind blew at them furiously but Sessomaru just stood there scouting while holding Rin in front of him, away from the gust of the wind. Looking up, Rin saw his hair being blown in fast spurts toward his face. 'Rin will you go find some firewood,' asked Sessomaru in a gentle voice after the wind had eased down a bit.
'Yes, Lord Sessomaru,' she replied running off into the woods.
' Inuyasha, Miroku, I'm going to the hot springs to keep Sango company, you know the drill.' 'Feh…Yeah…Yeah…bother you and we'll get in trouble,' replied Inuyasha in a sarcastic remark as he looked to his side annoyed that every time she goes there he has to be lectured. ' Fine lady Kagome, if you do not wish us to follow then we will remain here.' Stated Miroku in a content tone trying to hold in the grief that he felt inside.
' I really have trained them well,' said Kagome to herself walking off pleased with herself.
'Hey Sango,' yelled Kagome as she approached steamy spring, ' would you like some company?' ' Sure come on in,' said Sango as she sunk herself down into the water until it reached her upper lip, feeling the warmth.
'Okay,' replied Kagome as she slowly pulled off her clothes, laying them neatly over a nearby boulder where Sango had set her belongings. She pulled the ribbon out that held up her hair that fell onto her now naked shoulders.
Savoring the stingy heat of the springs with each step getting lower and lower into the water, she turned to face Sango, sitting across from her.
'So it was a rough day wasn't it?' asked Sango trying to break the silence. ' Yeah, I'm just glad that we get to relax here and don't have to worry about the wind reaching past the steam.'
' Yeah that's a relief. What was that?'' What was what?' asked Kagome in a confused tone.
' I thought I heard a rustling noise over there,' stated Sango pointing over toward a bush.
'I see if it's what I think it is,' stated Kagome softly as she blurted out the most feared words in the English language, 'SIT'.
Nothing happened after that. 'What then what was it if it wasn't the monk or Inuyasha?' asked Sango. ' I don't know but lets take advantage of it and relax a bit longer.
