Enter Jaken!
InuTaisho kissed his baby boy good-bye and then turned his attention to Sessuna. She had tears in her eyes and was unwilling to let her husband leave only two days after their son's birth. He hated seeing her like this, her tears were enough to tear him apart, but this was the only way he could be sure that his family would be safe. He cupped her cheek with his right hand and slowly brushed a tear off her cheek. He then kissed the crescent shaped mark on her forehead and then her lips. They stood there, not wanting this kiss to end, eyes full of tears until Sesshomaru's wailing caused them to pull apart.
Sessuna rocked her infant back and forth, "He's crying because he knows he won't see you for a while…. He loves you so much. As do I."
InuTaisho let out a bit of a groan, not wanting to leave them. "I love you guys so much. I promise I'll be back in a month. I'll be sure to find Sesshomaru and good strong servant while I'm away. And I promise I'll bring you something as well." He then looked down at the wailing Sesshomaru, who was more than likely crying because he was hungry rather than because his father was leaving. "You be a good boy for your mama and I'll make sure to bring lots of candy."
Sesshomaru stopped crying for a second just to glare at his father, as if to say I don't need candy! What I need is for you to shut up and let me feed. He then looked up at Sessuna and glared at her. Feed me, woman!
"Ugh. We're going to have to work on that attitude of his before he grows up to be a sour puss." InuTaisho sighed and then turned to leave, whispering to his wife. "Please, be safe."

One month later
Jaken, a young imp demon, traveled with the Great Dog Demon excited to learn what kind of things he'd be helping his famous master with. He couldn't stifle the amazing idea of traveling with one of the strongest demons alive. He imagined using his staff of two heads, a family heirloom he had inherited from his grandfather, to aid his master in battles. He wiped a tear from his eye at the thought. Oh, Mother, if you could see me now…. Jaken's thoughts were short lived because what he saw approaching him and InuTaisho wasn't a great battle, or even a small fight. It was nothing but a small hut. He turned to his master, "Master, this wouldn't be that great place you wanted to take me to… Is it?"
InuTaisho grinned at him, "Wow, you're incredibly perceptive. I'm so glad I chose you as my new servant." He then yelled really loud towards the house. "I'm !"
The door swung wide open and Sessuna ran towards them. To Jaken she was the most beautiful demon he had ever laid eyes on. Her flowing silver hair shined in the light of the sun and her kimono seemed to glide with her as she ran to meet them. His face felt incredibly hot and he was sure it was bright red. When Sessuna closed the distance between her and InuTaisho, Jaken was ready to introduce himself but…
InuTaisho lifted her into the air and spun her around. He then hugged her tightly and kissed her intimately… right in front of Jaken. Sessuna giggled when she saw the imp's expression, which was a mixture between confusion and heartbreak. Upon hearing her giggle, InuTaisho came back to reality and followed his wife's gaze. "Oh, Jaken, I guess I better introduce you two." He gestured from Jaken to Sessuna. "Sessuna, Jaken." And then from Sessuna to Jaken. "Jaken, this is Sessuna… My wife."
Jaken was sure he could hear his heart breaking in two, Mother, your son just fell in love and had his heart broken in all but five minutes. He then decided it would be better to formally introduce himself, "It is a pleasure to meet you, my lady." He bowed to the somewhat started Sessuna.
Suddenly, a loud crashing sound emitted from the house followed by wailing. Sessuna sighed and shook her head. InuTaisho became completely alarmed and dropped everything he had to run to the house, leaving a somewhat distraught Jaken and an annoyed Sessuna. She just sighed again and picked up the items her husband dropped and began carrying them back to the house. She slightly turned to Jaken, "Come on. You'd better come see what your master is up to."
Jaken nodded and followed her into the small house. What he saw made him stifle a laugh, InuTaisho was rocking an incredibly dirty Sesshomaru in his arms. The look on his face was priceless. InuTaisho was begging someone, begging an infant to stop crying. Sweat was falling from the grown demon's face and his eyes were wide open in horror. Sesshomaru just continued to wail, causing tears to develop in his father's eyes.
"Ohhhhhhh come on, kid! It's okay! You're not even that dirty! Come on, Daddy's here!"InuTaisho kept trying to find the right things to say to his son, but he was frazzled. Sessuna rolled her eyes and took the baby out of his arms.
"Sesshomaru, knock it off. Even a prince can afford to get dirty every now and then. You're acting like a child!" Sessuna yelled, in a gentle voice, to her dirty son. This shut Sesshomaru up right away, he then began cooing and gurgling as if to tell his mother he was a big boy. She smiled gently and kissed him on the forehead. "You can be a real pain sometimes, my little Fluffy."
Jaken stared at the infant, he could tell this kid was going to grow up to be one of those moody, sardonic types of people, but he couldn't help but find him incredibly cute. The child's big eyes found his and Sesshomaru began gurgling and smiling, making a really big commotion. A wire smile, snuck up on Sessuna's face and before Jaken knew what was happening, she had placed the tiny infant in Jaken's arms.
Jaken was taken aback for a second and then he finally decided he liked holding the little baby. He began talking to the little fluffball and soon found himself cooing to Sesshomaru. "You're not so bad. You're actually kind of cute…" Jaken was cut off mid-sentence by the sound of Sesshomaru spitting up all over him.
InuTaisho laughed. "Jaken let me introduce you, this is Sesshomaru, your new master."
Jaken's scream echoed throughout the valley, "WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAT?"
