"Sesshoumaru-sama...Sesshoumaru-sama! Wait! Where are you going?" cried little Rin for the demon lord, who ignored her and kept going with a look of resolution and despair.

"Jaken-sama why does Sesshoumaru-sama look so worried? Where is he going? Will he be fine? When is he going to come back?"

The girl inquired annoyingly but with the honest concern of an innocent child. The tiny demon, made little effort to answer the infant and simply nodded his head

"It is something the lord must do, dangerous as it, it is his natures call. And for a demon such as Sesshoumaru-sama himself, it is a tough challenge, I can only imagine."

"If it's that dangerous, why must he do it?" -Her doubts and concerns, even though understandable, were beginning to poke the small demon in the wrong way, who just answered to end their conversation.

"It is something that must be done and that's all there is to it. A human such as yourself could never understand the dark side of a demon's nature."

Naturally, Jaken's intention of ending the conversation had failed, the girl's curious intent was overwhelming, so she inquired further.

"Is this something all demons must do?"The small creature nodded affirmatively.

"So why have I never seen Jaken-sama look so afraid when he goes away alone?"
