Chapter 1
"Lord Sesshomaru!" Rin screamed out "Help me Lord Sesshomaru!"
"Rin"
Sesshomaru drew Toukijin and ran towards Rin, he came to a sudden halt when he saw her, she was lying on the ground with a dark shadow kneeling down beside her.
"The great Western Lord travelling with a human child, ha! what a sight this is"
"Get away from her" Sesshomaru growled at the shaded male as he picked Rin up
"And what if I don't" He dared
Sesshomaru raised Toukijin ready to strike
"Tssk tssk tssk, you wouldn't want to hit the girl now would you" He said raising Rin in front of him
Sesshomaru let out a low defeated growl
"That's what I thought, this child is too young to be without a family, but don't worry I will look after her, love her and care for her like you never could"
Sesshomaru winced when the male caressed Rin in his arms stroking her hair and face.
"So…. Peaceful, isn't she"
"Who are you?" Sesshomaru hissed clenching Toukijin
"Why, haven't you figured it out yet" The shadow moved into the light revealing himself "Dear brother" Inuyasha chuckled fading away"
Sesshomaru woke up with his heart racing, he could hear Rin sleeping peacefully next to him, he let out a sigh of relief
"Another dream" he muttered
He Turned to look at Rin and brushed the hair off her face then stood up careful not to wake the sleeping Rin. He walked over to a tree and leaned against it, he looked up at the sky and waited for the sun to rise.
Rin woke up not long after the sun has risen, she sat up and rubbed the sleep out of her eyes then jumped to her feet ready for the day, Sesshomaru looked over to where Jaken was
"Still asleep… stupid toad"
Sesshomaru moved from the tree and started to walk away from the others, he stopped a little way into the forest and waited for Rin. Rin saw that Sesshomaru was leaving and went to run to his side when she noticed Jaken was still sleeping.
"Lord Sesshomaru, what about Master Jaken? He is still sleeping, shouldn't we wake him up?" Rin cheerfully asked
Sesshomaru looked back at Rin then started walking again, Rin ran over to Jaken and poked him a few times with a stick.
"Lord Sesshomaru is leaving" She said poking him one more time
Sesshomaru could hear Rin trying to wake up the sleeping toad and he knew until he did Rin would not follow him. Jaken moved his arm to shoo Rin away then a small rock feel right on his head, Rin looked to see where the rock came from only to see more rocks coming towards them, she moved back as the rocks neatly landed right on Jaken. Jaken woke up with a fright, he looked around only to see his lord was gone and Rin was skipping off into the forest holding onto Ah-Un's rains. Jaken jumped up and ran after his Lord.
"Milord! Wait for me milord!" she shouted running after Sesshomaru
The group walked all day with Sesshomaru silently leading in front while Rin ran around chasing things and humming little songs, Jaken was grumbling and whining about Rin's constant humming. Suddenly Rin stopped dead in her tracks and shouted out to Sesshomaru.
"Lord Sesshomaru, Lord Sesshomaru!"
Sesshomaru tensed as he heard the all too familiar plead in her voice.
"Look Lord Sesshomaru, flowers! There are flowers over there" Rin cheered
Sesshomaru slightly turned only to see Rin jumping up and down pointing to an open field filled with lots of flowers, he knew Rin wanted nothing more then to frolic in the flowers but it was nearing night fall so he made a small grumble and kept walking. Rin's smile faded for she knew this meant she couldn't go play in the field of flowers, with a sigh she followed after Sesshomaru with her head hung.
"Insolent child, the great Lord has no time for such childish things"
After a while Rin was happily running around after butterflies and smiling again.
