A trio walks through the woods unnoticed by anyone. In the lead is a tall stately
figure that seems to glide as he walks. Behind him the second person skips along happily
stopping to pick up stuff as she goes. While the third member of this little group is a short
figure somewhat like the second since they are both the size of a child, but carries a staff
and appears to waddle.
They emerge moments later in a clearing and we proceed to get a closer
look at them. The first one appears to be a demon, with a crescent moon on his forehead
and stripes on his cheeks. Why, I believe we are seeing Lord Sesshoumaru, Overlord of
the west. So the other two characters must be Rin and Jaken. Now that we have decided
who these people are dear reader lets go in for a closer look.
Sesshoumaru is walking calmly along as Rin skips after him. She appears to be
collecting flowers since she has a large handful in her hand. Jaken meanwhile is blabbing
about nothing in particular, and since Sesshoumaru is not paying attention why should
we?
Rin eventually lags behind the group since she is tired and wants to get the pretty
purple flower, that happens to be off the path. Jaken who should be watching her is
oblivious that his charge has wandered off for quite awhile, but we will return to that
later.
Rin finally gets her purple flower and smiles happily. She yawns and looks for
Sesshoumaru. She squints trying to see across the clearing but doesn't succeed. She
scratches her head puzzled.
"Sesshoumaru? Are you there?" She looks around and sighs when she gets no
answer.
She sits and plays with the flowers and makes a necklace out of them. It looks
rather crude, but she is only a child after all. Getting bored and having nothing to do,
since she knows better then to wander away she lays down and stares at the clouds.
Feeling tired she soon drifts to sleep with a peaceful look on her face.
Meanwhile Sesshoumaru glares at Jaken.
"How could you lose her?"
"Lord Sesshoumaru," He grovels before his lord nervously, "I was talking to you
about important matters and I thought she was obedient to follow"
His explanation earned him a hit on the head. Sesshoumaru raced along,
backtracking, trying to find Rin. In his hurry he didn't notice the tiny trail through the
grass in the field. He stops part way through the wood and turns around heading back,
this time slower.
He found the trail that Rin had made and followed it slowly, she was so little and
light that she barely left a path. He found the Rin sleeping and smiled. He leaned over
and picked her up and raced back to Jaken.
"Did you find her Lord Sesshoumaru?"
Sesshoumaru looked at him and wondered how stupid the toad that followed him
could be. Sesshoumaru looked down at Rin then back at Jaken.
"I'm glad she's all right m'lord." He smiled glad he was out of trouble.
Sesshoumaru smiled at him.
"Please Sesshoumaru, My lord don't smile at me." He threw himself at
Sesshoumaru's feet.
"Get up, and make yourself useful. Find a place where we can get some food for
her. Do not return until you do."
Jaken bowed and ran off in some direction and Sesshoumaru put Rin down. She
made a little sighing noise then curled up. Sesshoumaru walked to a spring that was
nearby and drank deeply. He then washed his face and hands.
A figure crept in the shadows past Sesshoumaru while he was occupied and
headed toward Rin. Sesshoumaru heard a gasp and some rustling and ran back, he first
thought was about Rin.
"Rin!" He called as he appeared at the tree, but Rin was gone, only the necklace
of flowers remaining.
