Steam rolled up around his body making his long raven black hair stick to his wet body. He blinked the water from his startling green eyes as he rubbed lightly at them. His long and thin fingers ran through his hair to flatten it against his head as another pale hand reached over to the edge of the small rock pool. Picking up the slightly larger jar up, he dipped his fingers inside. The substance stuck to his clawed hand, he placed the jar back onto the rock edge. Rubbing his hands together before rubbing the soapy substance into his hair, he dived under water to rinse the soap out of his hair. Breaking the surface, making the water to rippling, he reached out to another jar that was handed to him by a pale, unhealthy child.

Blinking towards the child, he chuckled lightly as his other hand reached out towards the tied silver strands and ruffled the girls' bangs, making them fall into her unnatural purple eyes. The small child didn't smile at him, but tilted her head to the side as if to ask a question.

"I am almost done, Yuzu." The man whispered softly as if he never raised his voice toward anyone. She nodded and stood up from her sitting position before walking away, a silver strand following behind her.

He looked away from her departing form as he opened the jar before him. He dipped his fingers into the jar and the substance from inside stuck to his skin and nails. He rubbed his hands together before rubbing them down his body. Once he deemed himself clean, he stood up after he washed the soapy substance off his body.

He lifted his body over the edge of the springs as he grabbed for a towel. He wrapped the white material around his waist before he looked around. Silver strands fell from top of trees to fall over the smaller plants within the area. The web like strands forming a cocoon of some sorts. Varies of spiders could be found on many strands, moving about kind of lazily. Looking away from the strands, he looked down at the ground. He found a pile of fabric that Yuzu had placed down for him. He smiled, that girl is thoughtful.

Reaching for the towel, he dried himself off before wrapping his dripping hair into to keep it off the ground. Reaching down, he grabbed the top article off the pile and stretched it out to look at it. It was a standard looking under clothe layer to chase away the cold, but it ended just before reaching for his knees. He placed it around his shoulders and tied the side strands together before reaching down for the top layer of his kimono. The layer was also stretched out to look at and reached just before his knees. The article was made of cotton with light purple threads. The pattern looked to be painted on, that only his kind could spin together. The colors, silver and a whitish purple, formed ravens. A large raven sat upon his shoulder and then it got smaller as it reached the bottom hem of his right sleeve. The ravens drifted between the two colors. He placed it upon his shoulders before he grabbed he obi that laid on one of the dry stones. The obi matched the color of the kimono, the ends held a silver raven while the other held a whitish purple one. He tied the obi around his waist in a sideways knot before he turned and started for his hut.

~Line Break~

Breaking out of the long lines of trees, he found his group of puppets to be surrounding a small form. Lifting a brow towards the group in wonder, he made his way towards them slowly. What he found laying was not what he was expecting. A small child stared back towards him. Her eyes held no signs of life. He dropped to his knees to inspect the child. He felt the child's weak and thready pulse with two fingers pressing into her neck. He called out for help.

"Kry," He started as he narrowed his eyes. Sharp golden eyes looked at him, waiting for him to give an order. "Get a room ready. She is still breathing and thank you for bringing her here." Kry nodded in understanding, she stood and started to prepare a room for the young one. She had someone else to take care of. She was full of excitement.

Working quickly, he took the rag that was handed to him and try to clean the child off. The rag was stain red in seconds of touching the pale child. Sadly looking towards her, he stood up with the child in his arms and started for the hut.

Kry met him in the hall and led him to one of the back rooms. She shown him into the room before he laid the child onto the small cot. Kry watched him leave as she went to work. Kry stripped the child of her kimono to look at the damage. Small scrapes decorated the child's body. The heavily ragged marks were on her back, the large rigged claw marks had reach the bare bone of the spine. Kry placed a salve around the claw marks to help the tender skin to repair itself before she skillful place small amounts of venom onto the salved skin. She heard the child groan softly from the pain. She only winced in sympathy. Making sure that the wound would close, Kry wrapped her back up. Kry placed the child back down onto the cot and continue to place the salve onto the smaller cuts and bruises. Once she was finished, she stood up and walked over to the dresser. She turned the child once she held a white child sized kimono in her hands.

Kry walked out of the room to find her master leaning against the wall next to the child's room. Their eyes meet for a moment before they walked away from the room. Once they were standing outside, he turned to her and waited for her to explain.

Bruises and cuts, a large claw like mark on her back and a fever. Her soft, sweet voice floated across his mind. He nodded towards her and told her to look after her for he is going to hunt. He left Kry to watch him leap into the air and disappeared between the trees and shadows.

~Few Months Later~

Kry lifted her head up when a soft groan reached her hearing range. She stood up from the floor where she had fallen the night before and walked over to the closed room. She watched as dazed brown eyes opened as she opened the animal skinned door. She walked into the room just as her master reached the room. Kry helped the small child sit up, slowly, as she sat on the bed. Her master sat in front of them on the wooden chair.

"Hello." He whispered lightly as he waited for the child to look at him. "What might be your name, little one?" The dazed brown eyes fully looked upon him with sharp pain flashing through them. Kry place a cup of water at the child's lips and helped her take small sips.

"Rin is Rin." The child rasped out lightly once her mouth wasn't dry.

"Rin, why you have a very beautiful name." He flattered her with a soft smile and bright eyes. A light blush appeared upon her cheeks. "You can call me Cancri." Cancri looked up at Kry and was given a slight raise of her chin. He chuckled at her as she calmed the young one. "Could you tell me what happened? Your parents, maybe?"

"Rin remembers a lady attacking with the wind. She wanted to take Rin to her master, to harm Lord Sesshomaru." Rin started out with her brows coming close together as she tried to remember. "Lord Sesshomaru?" She asked in wonder, looking for him as if he'll appear any minute.

"Lord Sesshomaru? I have never heard him taking in a human child as a ward." Cancri muttered a little surprise. This child is important. "I can bring your master to you." Rin's face spilt into a wide smile. Cancri smiled back before standing and letting Kry take care of the child. It's going to be hard finding Sesshomaru and hopefully he doesn't get his head cut off when he does find the full breed.

The place is going to be livelier when he returned. Cancri thought as he stood up from the chair. He looked back at the child and softly told her that Kry would be looking out for her until he returned with her master. He watched as the child nod with a smile.

Cancri stood in front of his hut and waited for one of his more skilled puppets to show up. Yuzu stood beside him waiting for him to take control. Cancri looked down at the child and smiled lightly before pulling the silver strands from the nap of her neck. Several strands of silk silver web like strands wrapped immediately around his long fingers. Yuzu stood ridged at his side. Lifting the smaller looking child and placing her on his arm as if the child looked to be sitting in a seat, he took off into the night sky.

He had a long search before him.
