1A/N: I was inspired. Let's see how it goes… shall we?
"Slow poke!! Hurry up Rin!"
"I'm coming… hold on!" Rin finished tying on her bathing suit and grabbed a towel. "Here I come!" She took off sprinting towards her friends and when she caught up with them, they all ran to the town pond for a swim.
It was the feudal era in Japan. Rin is about 18 years of age and hasn't changed at all. Well except the fact that she grew up. Over the years, she has developed an exceptional curvy body. The only difference in her appearance is that her hair was now short and straight, instead of the long wavy locks she use to have.
Rin was the first to dive into the pond. Yumi and Ai stopped to watch their friend splash around happily. They were glad to see their friend so happy, seeing how today was…
"Come on guys! Get in here! The water is perfect!" Rin floated on her back and felt the warm drops of water hit her face when Yumi and Ai jumped in. The two girls then jumped on top of Rin, pulling her under. Rin popped up and shook her head free of the water.
She went back to floating on her back. "You know what today is?"
"Um… no." Yumi said, wringing out her hair.
"No why?" Ai asked, playing with a floating lily pad.
Rin closed her eyes. "Ten years ago… you remember."

"Lord Sesshomaru! Please don't leave me here! I promise I'll be good! Please don't go!" eight year old Rin cried, grabbing onto Sesshomaru's fluffy… thingy. "Please!"
Sesshomaru grabbed Rin's arms and pried them of him. His eyes were hidden behind his bangs. "Rin."
"This isn't fair! I didn't do anything."
"Rin."
"Lord Sesshomaru! Please, don't leave me! I need you! I need you protect and be with me!" Despite the fact that he was a full demon, Rin started pounding on his chest, arms and armor, causing her hands to bleed.
Sesshomaru grabbed both her arms with just his one hand. "Rin… stop it. I'm doing this to protect you."
Rin fell quiet at looked at her lord. She couldn't see his eyes. Then he did something that really surprised her. He slowly lowered his head onto her shoulder. "Lord…"
Sesshomaru raised his head quickly and stood up. He looked out to the village that stood before them and back at Rin. "That's where you will be staying from now on. Rin, leave."
"But…"
"Rin…"
"Please…"
"LEAVE!" His eyes flashed red and his hair bristled. Rin jumped back and slowly backed up before she took off running.
"Good riddance!" cried the toad demon Jaen. "Filthy human."
"Yes." Sesshomaru replied, turning to Ah-Un. He sniffed the air, it reeked of salt. 'She was crying.' He thought. But he had to get rid of her. He couldn't associate himself with humans. Not even Rin.

"Rin?" Yumi said, poking Ran's stomach. Ran squealed and dove under the water. She came up and splashed Yumi, laughing.
"Yes? I'm okay. Really."
Yumi and Ai looked at her skeptically.
"Really guys!"
"Okay if you say so." Ai said. "Hey guys it's getting late. We have to go back and finish our chores."
Yumi and Rin nodded and made their way out of the pond. Rin grabbed her towel and started to dry off her body, when she heard rustling in the woods. She tried to peer into the thick brush, but saw and hear nothing. Must be a critter. She towel-dried her hair and wrapped the towel around her slender waist. She ran her hands through her hair, to fix the fuzzy mess.
"Hey guys wait up!" She noticed that her friends had left her behind. She took off running after them and when she caught up, she slung her arms over their necks. "Seriously guys, I'm fine!"
A/N: Okay… let's see how you guys like it! If you must flame, go ahead… if not, shower me with love!!!
