Chapter 1: Reunion and Rival
~Sesshomaru~
"Lord Sesshomaru!"; the little brunette yelled out gleefully from her spot on the cliff over looking the valley below. Her eyes shut as she waved with a huge toothy grin to her Lord who was still a ways down the path from her. He stared at the youth inwardly smiling at her childish behavior that he grew very fond of. Behind him he heard his faithful servant; a green little imp; mumble how unladylike and how the little youth should behave towards her Lord. Sesshomaru ignored him like always his eyes glued to the youth as he got closer to the little 8 year old. "Lord Sesshomaru!" the little brunette yelled again happily; but then her voice changed from the sound of innocence to annoyance. Something he never could bring to call his little ward. "LORD SESSHOMARU!" she yelled again but this time it sounded like it was right in his ear. The image in front of him of Rin disappeared and he opened his eyes to look at the fire in front of him. 'A dream' he thought to himself then again, "LORD SESSHOMARU!" Whack! he hit the head of his new ward he took in a couple of winters ago. "Quite, Tsuki. This Sesshomaru can not sleep with all your racket." Sesshomaru coldly told the teen dog demon next to him. He looked at her; her silver hair was up in pigtails held by red ribbons, her amber eyes a little watery from his earlier hit to her head, she had markings similar to him magenta strips on both cheeks and a crescent moon on her forehead, her kimono only covered to her bottom she had bandages covering her feet rather than shoes even though she had no injury on them. Leather cuffs around her wrists take up about half of her lower arm. In the demon culture she was considered to be a real beauty and one would be lucky to mate her. Unfortunately, this Sesshomaru felt nothing to this young pup; she was a nuisance to him. Unlike Rin she never let Sesshomaru have his room, she constantly asked where they were going and would have the audacity to try and take Rin's spot next to him which he would always glare at her till she backed off to her spot behind Jaken. Even Ah-un didn't like this demon. He his never let her on his back once except when Sesshomaru himself puts her there; those were only when she was to injured to walk. "I'm sorry my Lord but the sun is going to rise soon and you still haven't told me where we are headed." the young teen rubbed the bump on her head. Sesshomaru just stood and kicked the sleeping imp awake. Jaken yelped and stood immediately , "Is it time to leave mi Lord?" the imp inquired seeing that his beloved Lord looked annoyed in his own way. Jaken immediately picked up "USELESS HELP THIS FAITHFUL SERVANT!" Jaken yelled at Tsuki; she started to help pick up and sighs. "Jaken. Go ahead. This Sesshomaru has business to attend to." Before hearing the imps reply Sesshomaru turned and walked away. Leaving behind the imp and the teen. Hearing them yell at each other back and forth but he ignored them cause he only had one thing on his mind. "Rin." he said while he looked forward as he walked.
~Rin~
"Rin. Come." Lord Sesshomaru said as he turned to leave; the brunette looked after her Lord happily; seeing his silver long hair swish back and forth as he walked the wind blowing his mokomoko to the side. How she loved her Lord she ran after him happily she could even here Jaken's insults he always threw at her when she acted like a child. Only thing is no matter how fast she ran she never caught up to her Lord. "Lord Sesshomaru! Please wait for me my Lord!" She cried out but he kept walking. Rin jolted up from her sleep she looked around seeing her familiar home. She lived with Lady Kaede at the village since Lord Sesshomaru told her to stay at the human village after Naraku had fallen. That was 7 years ago; she was 15 now marrying age; and she hasn't seen her Lord in 5 years. Rin slowly got up from her futon and walked out and stretched the sun was rising in the horizon the perfect time to bathe before the men woke and tried to take a peek at the young woman. She went back in and gathered her things to bathe grabbing her working kimono and soap. She even stashed a separate outfit into her bundle; after getting everything she needed she walked out and headed to the river to bathe. Kagome, a swelling Sango, and a faithful Kirara met up with her on her way. "Morning Sango, Kagome, Kirara!" Rin waved happily to the two women and the cat-demon. "Morning Rin!" Kagome and Sango both said in unison while they smiled happily at the youth they now saw as a younger sister. The small group chatted happily on their way to the river to bathe. Sango complained about how her pregnancy gave her the strangest cravings and how much Miroku her know husband would jump at the slightest sigh she made worrying endlessly and making sure Sango didn't do anything to over exert herself. "Ever since I told him I was with our first child he keeps acting like that and he doesn't give me space." Sango sighed out as they all disrobed and sunk into the river to bathe. Kagome and Rin just giggled at her knowing that Sango actually loved the attention her husband was giving her. Rin looked down and looked at herself. Her curves started to appear when she turned 11, she was well shaped her breast full and her waist was tucked in very nicely her hips shooting out to what men would consider desirable. her chestnut hair reached the middle of her back now, her eyes were still abnormally big but fit perfectly on her face. When she stood she was about Kagome's height; her muscles were nicely defined by all the work she did and her new hobby helped her figure stay in shape. After awhile the group got out and dried themselves Rin put on first the clothes she had added to her pile then her working kimono which reached to her ankle. She walked next to Kagome and Sango chatting away as she put her hair up in a ponytail so she could get to work after putting her things away. Even though she kept up with the conversation her thoughts kept wandering to her Lord that she missed so very much. Little did Rin know that heading her way was something that would change her peaceful yet boring life.
~Tsuki~
Tsuki sighed for like the millionth time that day as she walked behind Jaken, she wanted to run up to her Lord that had reunited with them after half a day of walking. She noticed the big box and the 2 little boxes he carried in his hands. He calmly put them in Ah-un's saddle and oddly he made sure they wouldn't get damaged during their journey. This was the second time he did this on this journey there was another box and two smaller boxes in Ah-un's saddle. At first she thought that those boxes were gifts to her but she was wrong when he had walked past her to put them away carefully. Jaken had warned her not to touch them but curiosity won over and she looked. Inside was a beautiful woman's kimono made of the finest silk the pattern was that of blue flowers she had never seen before. It took her breath away she opened the first box and inside was a beautiful hair piece that matched the kimono; the blue flower inside had dangling white pearls on them. The final box had a beautiful mirror a hand mirror that was held together by golden vines with buds and flowers that were sapphires. All these gifts were so beautiful; who were they for maybe her Lord was planing on giving them to her but at a later date. Those thoughts left her when she felt a dark aura behind her "Tsuki. What do you think you are doing?" She slowly turned at the sound of her Lords voice calm but when she saw his face she shivered in terror. He's eyes had turned red from anger."I beg for your forgiveness my Lord I was merely curious!" she bowed to her Lord in fear near tears. She heard rustling thinking he was going to hit her when she didn't feel anything she cautiously looked up but her Lord was just repacking the gifts carefully and putting them back in their place in Ah-Un's saddle pouch."Never touch my things without permission." was all Sesshomaru had said and turned and walked away; after that she dared not look at the second set he had brought with him. Instead she went with talking. "My Lord where are we going?" Sesshomaru didn't reply just walked silently. "Silence you pup do not question where our Master takes us!" Jaken yelled at her. She sighed wondering why she even did start to follow Sesshomaru he was mean to her. 'Duh it's cause you love him after he saved you you baka.' she thought to herself pouting. Yup 2 winters ago Lord Sesshomaru found her near death after a battle that left her orphaned and alone. He took care of her by taking her to the closes doctor and she has been traveling with him ever since.
~Rin~
Rin wiped her forehead with her sleeve from the sweat on her forehead, she was currently helping Lady Kaede pick herbs and medicinal plants. She had learned all she could from the elder about medicine. "Lady Kaede Rin finished picking the leaves!" she happily called to the older priestess. "Well done child, let us return to the village, Ye promised to help with the gardens did ye not?" Kaede asked Rin smiled and nodded her head. "Yes, Lady Kaede!" The two walked back to the village Rin carrying the baskets for Kaede since she was getting too old to carry the heavy baskets. As they entered the the village a young man ran up to them waving happily, "RIN!" he yelled happily. "Kohaku! Did you come to see your sister?" Rin asked the young demon slayer as he stopped in front of her. He shyly rubbed his neck a blush creeping up on his cheeks. "Yeah..." was his reply he noticed the basket Rin was carrying and took them from her. "Let me carry those for you!" Before she could protest, he looked at the chuckling Kaede. "Ye have grown Kohaku." Kaede told him in an all knowing tone. It wasn't a secret that he had strong desires for Rin. Well, that is except Rin, she was so dense that she couldn't tell that Kohaku liked her. The trio walked together talking idly, when they arrived at Kaede's home Kohaku put the basket down inside. "Rin will take her leave now Lady Kaede!" Kaede just nodded at the child smiling."Do not overwork yeself child." "Rin won't!" Rin ran to the gardens where Kagome worked for her husband and Miroku were out on a job. "Kagome!" Rin waved happily Kagome looked up and smiled."Hi Rin! I really appreciate you helping me!" Kagome said. "Hey, I'm helping!" Sango said Rin looked over at her friend to see her sitting on the ground pulling weeds. Kagome giggled, "Yea and if Miroku or Kohaku sees you like this they'll get mad at you!". As if hearing Kagome Kohaku came running up to them "Sis! Your not suppose to be working in your condition!" He said angrily at his older sister. She huffed, "I have to do something Kohaku I can't sit back and relax." Kohaku sighed at his sister, Rin giggles at this and sets to work to help Kagome Kohaku on the other hand half dragged his sister away from the garden to the porch of Kagome's and Inuyasha's home which was closes and started to help Rin and Kagome in her place. After a few minutes of working they all snapped up and looked up Sango stood and looked out. "There's a demon...such a strong aura..."Sango said calmly. Right after saying that 3 giant centipede demons came crashing out of the earth screeching out loud a ear splitting screech. Rin covered her ears from the sound Kohaku had already ran forward his weapons in hand ready to fight them off with Kirara ahead of him ready to defend her mistress and her friends. Kagome and Rin both run to Sango to get her to safety, Kagome grabbed her bow and arrows that she always kept close to the door just in case and started to fire at the demons. Rin lead Sango inside to the safety of Kagome's hut she ran back out before Sango could stop her. Kohaku was struggling with one centipede while Kirara fought one and Kagome was fighting the other. 'I need to get home!' Rin yelled to herself without a second thought she ran towards Kaede's.
~Sesshomaru, Rin, & Tsuki~
Sesshomaru stopped making Jaken run into him and Tsuki running into Jaken. "Mi Lord why have you stopped?" Jaken asked looking at his Lord. "Demons are close." was his reply. Tsuki looked around sensing the demons but they weren't near them but a few miles ahead of them at a close by village. "They aren't close my Lord we can easily destroy them!" Tsuki said happily Sesshomaru ignored her and then he smelled it. The smell of morning dew, flowers, chamomile, human and demon blood . At that he ran towards the village, "MY LORD!" "MI LORD!" he heard Tsuki and Jaken scream out as she followed him with Jaken and Ah-un behind them. 'Rin be safe till this Sesshomaru arrives.' he prayed to himself as he ran towards his Rin. In the mean time Kagome and Kohaku were panting Kagome had ran out of arrows and Kohaku was bleeding from his arm and head from wounds given to him by the demons. Kirara was trying her hardest to fend them off herself to give Kagome and Kohaku some time to catch their breath.1 of the 3 centipede demons lay dead from Kagome's holy arrows it took all of them to take it down. The one Kohaku was fighting had blood oozing from its body but it was still alive the same with Kirara's. One of the demons smacks Kirara down to the ground merciless. "KIRARA!" Kagome and Kohaku shouted in unison. They run to check on their fallen friend who reverted back to her tiny form and weakly meows. "Kirara..." Kagome carefully picks her up as Kohaku gets in front of her protectively. Before they could attack a figure jumps ahead of Kohaku a giant scythe slashes a centipede's head right off. "You dare hurt my friends?" Kagome looks up from Kirara who was looking at the battle. She sees the petite figure dressed in demon slayers clothes similar to Sango's but it was amber and red. "RIN!" Kagome shouted. Rin turns and smiles at Kagome. "Sorry Rin's late Rin had to go get 'Shi' from home."She answered happily holding the giant scythe that dripped with demon blood. The last centipede screeched Rin looked and managed to block its attack. "This Rin shall punish you!" She calmly sliced the demon in half its blood splatters on her face and chest a bit. She swings Shi to remove the blood and looks up shocked to find standing in front of her was a certain Dog Demon Lord she missed so much. "Lord...Sesshomaru?" Rin stared at her Lord tears welling up in her eyes. He in turn stares at her calmly. Sesshomaru could not believe his eyes his beloved Rin had just defeated the last 2 demons in front of her with a scythe no less. She had grown to be fearless, strong, and above all else beautiful he had to use every once of his restrain to not let his jaws drop at the sight and keep his emotions unknown. On the other hand from the corner of his eye he saw Jaken's jaw comically drop to the ground his eyes bulging out. "Lord...Sesshomaru...is that really you my Lord?" Rin inquired tears rolling down her face how he wished he could wipe them away and replace it with her smile. He briskly walked forward and gently wiped the blood and tears from her face. "Yes Rin. This Sesshomaru is here in front of you." He calmly replied her lower lip quivered. "Rin has missed you these 5 years my Lord..." Rin hiccuped out. This tore at Sesshomaru's heart had it been that long since he last saw her. He would send gifts to her every once in awhile but he was so busy with his lands and then with Tsuki he just couldn't make the time. He leaned down and whispered in a voice only she heard "This Sesshomaru will only say this once Rin. I am sorry for being away for so long." Rin gasped at her Lord's sudden apology. "No my Lord please don't apologize. Rin understands that you were busy." Rin quickly stammered out blushing. Tsuki looked over at her Lord shocked he was speaking to a human! When he leaned down to whisper to her Tsuki felt rage rising why would her beloved Lord stoop so low as to honor such things to a mere human! Jaken ran over to his Lord and the human...were those tears in his eyes!? "RIN!" Jaken yelled out catching the human's attention she smiled brightly and she kneeled down happily. Wait are they HUGGING!? "Master Jaken how Rin has missed you!" This Rin just called Jaken Master!? Ah-un had trotted over as well and is NUZZLING with this human!? Tsuki looked at the group shocked at the complete character changes. Jaken was actually likable, Ah-un looked lovable, and Lord Sesshomaru he didn't speak to humans hell he didn't even talk but a few words! Tsuki walked towards her group stunned a bit. After awhile Sesshomaru looked at the carcasses while Rin and Jaken were hugging and crying. "Rin. explain." Rin looked at her Lord when he spoke. "Well my Lord I begged Sango to train me in Demon slaying so I could defend myself!" Rin answered cheerfully and smiling. Sesshomaru and Jaken listen carefully to Rin as she explained herself. "FOOLISH CHILD! YOU INSULT LORD SESSHOMARU!" Jaken yelled at Rin who in turned teared up. Tsuki smiled slightly 'serves you right to be yelled at by Jaken you lowly human' she thought that is till Rin hugged Jaken. "Rin has missed your insults Master Jaken!" at this the little imp turned a blazing red. "Lord Sesshomaru who is this human?" Tsuki asked and let a little venom leek out when she said human. "She is this Lords ward before you." was his reply Rin looked up at Tsuki curiously with giant brown eyes. "Rin meet Tuski she has forced this Sesshomaru to let her travel with this Sesshomaru." Rin smiled at Tsuki, "Pleasure to meet you Tsuki! Rin's name is Rin!" She happily introduced herself again. Tsuki decided she hated this human and wished they would leave.
Author's Note: Well there we go everyone I hope it catches your interests... oh and if your wondering "Shi" is Japaneses for "Death" I know not creative but I thought it would fit Rin to have a Scythe since shes innocent make it ironic to have a deadly weapon! Tuski is the only character I made up to be Rin's love rival for Sesshomaru!
