Chapter 2 : Rescuing

Rin Inutaisho, an eight years old girl, the only daughter of you-know-well Inutaisho, was walking by herself along the street. Her maid – Kizuya was sleeping soundly at that time. Rin disliked Kizuya because she was always complaining (though secretly) about how difficult it was to look after Rin, but Rin didn't want her brother to change her maid again because she scared of meeting a strange person. Getting used to them was hard for her when she didn't know what they would do to her. Rin walked slowly, didn't care where her feet took her to and she crossed the street without noticing there was a car driving quickly towards her direction….

Meanwhile, Kagome had just walked out of "Sweet Candy" Restaurant, smiled happily because of her successful day of work. However, her happiness didn't last long because her eyes suddenly reached Rin, the girl who was crossing the street without noticing. Kagome's heart stopped and called it reflex, but she quickly jumping towards the little girl while shouting in panic:

"BE CAREFUL!''

Luckily (or unluckily I couldn't say) Kagome grabbed Rin just in time. She pulled the girl into her arms, rolling over on the streets.

BANGGGG…

Things happened too quickly. The car stopped and the driver got off his car, ran hurriedly to Kagome and Rin. Rin sat up, shivering in panic when she felt the wrap around her loosing slowly. Kagome's blood spread on the street. Rin felt the rhythm of blood throbbing in her temple causing her head dizzy. Her stomach was throbbing and there was something blocking her throat that made her wanted to vomit. Her tears dropped, her small body trembled. She didn't know what to do but stammering:

"Please …please…help…"

The driver didn't waste any time, he carried Kagome and took her to his car, Rin followed the driver quickly, her heart was beating violently in her chest, she stuttered not clearly in her sob:

"Quic..kly…please…"

The first time in her life Rin had seen that much of blood. Although she didn't understand clearly, she was subconsciously felt that this was a very dangerous situation. She wished Kagome was okay.

:::Chapter 2 : Rescuing:::

Jaken ran hurriedly to Sesshomaru's office. He knocked on the door like crazy, but couldn't do anything but waited patiently for his master allowing him to come in.

"Come in" – commanded Sesshomaru.

Jaken ran into the room, stammered:

"My… director, Rin–sama…had…had…she…"

"Say it clearly" – Sesshomaru looked up from his laptop, said impatiently.

Jaken took a deep breath, trying to calm down.

"Rin–sama had an accident." – Finally, he was able to say it smoothly.

"What?" – Sesshomaru completely looked up from his laptop. His hands hit the desk which made a loud noise.

"She's in the hospital". – Jaken startled, he tried best to find his voice.

Sesshomaru stood up, glancing at his watch.

"Tell everyone that the meeting will start immediately. Call the hospital, tell them prepare the best for Rin. Make sure that they can make Rin recover as soon as possible."

"Yes, sir''.

"Prepare the car, we'll come to the hospital after the meeting had finished".

"I'll do immediately, my great director".

:::Chapter 2 : Rescuing:::

Rin was sitting on the couch, her tears fell like rain and her eyes stuck on the door of the "Operation Room", her body trembled. At that time, she heard her brother's voice:

"Why are you here, Rin?"

"Brother…"- Rin turned to Sesshomaru immediately. Her swollen eyes glistening, she cried out and hugged him tightly, buried her face in the crook of his neck – "she rescued… Rin … she was in that room.. Rin was scared…"

Sesshomaru scooped Rin up, his voice showed a hint of surprise:

"Who?"

"Rin …doesn't know, she blooded… terribly, Rin was scared…"

"I'm here, stop crying."

"Rin was scared…"

"I know. But why are you outdoors, Rin? You must have been with your maid".

"Kizuya… slept, Rin didn't… like Kizuya so Rin… went out". – stammered Rin while looking at her brother piteously.

"Fire her immediately "– Sesshomaru commanded deadly.

"Yes, sir" – Jaken said respectfully.

Right on cue, the door opened, the doctor went out, informed:

"She had lost so much blood, but she is okay now. We'll bring her to the special room now."

"Do it!" – Sesshomaru said simply, his free hand came upwards to slap lightly on his forehead. So something unexpected did happen. First, he was informed Rin had had an accident. Now, he learnt that she was rescued by some girl he didn't know. And with what reason did she rescue Rin?

Rin jumped down from Sesshomaru's arms, ran after the doctors, Sesshomaru had to hold her hand to stop her.

"Where are you going?"

"Rin must see her, Rin must make sure if she is okay or not."

"Wait until she was moved to the special room, I'll take you there".

When Sesshomaru took Rin to the special room, she ran like the wind to Kagome who was lying lifelessly on the bed. Rin hold Kagome's hand, said worriedly:

"Why doesn't she wake up? Is she in danger? Does she hurt?"

"She is all right, let her rest."

Sesshomaru said boringly while his eyes were wandering on Kagome. 'Who is this girl? Why did she rescue Rin? What is her purpose?' A storm of questions popped out in his mind.

Well, just how could Sesshomaru believe that there was someone who was willing put herself in jeopardy for nothing?
