Disclaimer: Inuyasha is not my work (though I would like to have Sesshomaru-sama); they belong to the wonderful Rumiko-sama! First try writing here, so do pardon me for the lack of storyline/grammar/whatever! I write whenever I have the ideal plot to carry on.

He looked up to the sky above. It was a striking blue today. As he flew to the village, he stopped by and took a kimono before continuing on his journey again. When he arrived, a young girl rushed to him.

"Sesshomaru-sama! You have come! Rin is extremely happy today!" The girl jumped around ecstatically. He gave the slightest of smiles before handing her the kimono.

"Sesshomaru-sama, you shouldn't spoil Rin with all these pretty kimonos! Rin is happy enough if you visit Rin!" She beamed with joy.

"I just passed by," was his answer. Rin beamed even more.

"Sesshomaru-sama, Inuyasha-san and Kagome-san just had a beautiful baby boy! I play with him every day. It is such a joy to live in this village," she replied earnestly.

He knew he should have been happy of her remark. However, he felt the same feeling when she had died the second time. What was that feeling again, as his mother had told him? Yes, it was called sadness and fear. He felt sadness and fear because of her words. He had only relented to let her stay because he didn't want her to die another time. After all, he was often involved in dangerous situations due to his training for the Bakusaiga. He was the one who made her stay, so why was he sad when she announced that she had loved the village? It was maddening indeed. He shook off the lingering thoughts and stood up. As he approached the door, Rin rushed to it and opened it.

"Sesshomaru-sama must be going now! Rin will see you soon, right? Good luck with your training, Sesshomaru-sama!" She smiled widely. It was the same smile she'd given him when he first asked about her face. It was that smile which compelled him to save her then lifeless body. He nodded silently to her and left.

Walking down the road, his ever-faithful but nonsense-spouting imp, Jaken, was there waiting for him.

"Sesshomaru-sama, where are we going next?" The imp never got tired of that question. However he was, and he continued walking in silence, stepping on him when he was in his way.

"Sesshomaru-sama! May I ask where are we going?" Jaken whined. To shut him up, he finally replied.

"We are going to find Dakki. I believe that sword is located somewhere in the southeast of Nippon," he replied, annoyed.

"Pardon me for asking, Sesshomaru-sama, but isn't Dakki already overcome by the Tetsusaiga?" Jaken asked timdly.

"No. That is a fake, though powerful as well. The real one is made of pure demonic power, something that Inuyasha can never control," He scowled. His half-brother was better off dead. But he no longer despised him as much. Much as he hated it, Inuyasha was after all his father's son. He continued walking, deep in thought. After they had defeated Naraku, he went on strengthening his sword. It was to prepare to conquer the demon world. He knew he was the strongest demon in history, but he wanted more. He wanted to be more powerful for Rin. In that way, if she ever decided to come back to him, he would be able to protect his precious Rin. No one would then be able to hurt the people he cared about without the risk of being killed.

Note: Hoped whoever's reading this here liked it. I won't delve into romance for these two fellas because I can't seem to imagine it without bursting into laughter at Sesshomaru-sama's face. Also, I try to stick to his normal character so you won't see a Sesshomaru-sama with passion like I don't know, Miroku or something. Do review and tell me what can be improved! Arigato gozaimasu!
