Kaida landed in a tree and sniffed the air. "I can't find a trace of him... Where could he be..." She sighed sitting down. "Sesshomaru... I miss you..." She closed her eyes and sighed, but paused as the wind blew a scent to her. "RIN!"

She shot forward through trees following the scent till she came to a small empty campsite. "They were here... Not too long ago either..." She smiled. Sesshomaru... She continued on following the scent for a bit. She jumped up into a tree to scan the area.

"Lord Jaken!" She heard a voice call. RIN! She shot forward and landed in front of the voice. "Kaida?"

"Hey Rin." Kaida smiled and hugged her. "It's been a while." Her tail whipped around happily as she kissed Rin's forehead.

"Wow Kaida... Your tail is so fuzzy!" She rubbed up against it. "It's like Lord Sesshomaru's."

"You think so?" Kaida smiled. "Where... where is he?" She shifted and sniffed at the air. His scent was stale.

"I don't know... He went off and hasn't returned." Rin sighed. "I hope he's okay."

Kaida smiled and patted her head. "I'm sure he's fine... What do you say to some food real quick? I think I can catch some fish..."

"Sounds yummy!" Rin smiled hugging Kaida. "What do you think Lord Jaken?"

The toad demon frowned. "I do not care... Or the girl..." Jaken looked away.

"Aw... Jaken aren't you a little bug." She patted Rin's head. "Come on. If he gets hungry we'll save some."

"And some for Lord Sesshomaru in case he comes back?" Rin asked.

"Yep." She smiled. "Don't worry... Now let's go get some fish!" She led Rin to the river and started fishing. Rin watched in awe as she easily snatched up the fish. "There we go."

"THAT WAS AMAZING!" Rin said twirling around. "You are amazing!"

"I'm not that amazing." Kaida flushed. She gathered up the fish. "Let's get it all ready."

"Right!" Rin smiled. She followed Rin back to the camp to get the food ready.

Rin eat at the food. "This is delicious!" Kaida smiled as she ate and watched Rin. She paused as she heard a noise. She looked up and froze seeing Sesshomaru. "LORD SESSHOMARU!" Rin jumped up.

"Rin..." He turned and looked at Kaida.

"Uh.. Hi... Sesshomaru..." She shifted getting up. "It's... been a while..."

"...You are back..." Sesshomaru said calmly.

Kaida nodded. "Yes..." She looked at Rin. "Rin looks like she's doing well... I'm glad... We'll now that you are back... I think I'll be going." What was I thinking... He wouldn't want me to stay with them.

"I've said it before, but you will be fine if you wish to travel with us." Sesshomaru said sitting.

Kaida paused. "I..."

"Please stay!" Rin said grabbing her arm. "Please!"

"...Ah.. Alright." Kaida smiled gently. "Why don't you give Sesshomaru some food."

"Okay." Rin smiled rushing over to Sesshomaru with the food. "Lord Sesshomaru! Here! Kaida and I made this."

Sesshomaru looked at it and slowly took it. He took a bite and nodded. "It's fine."

Kaida smiled happily. She sat down and ate. Her tail twitched happily and she kept her eyes ... You are so... amazing... She closed her eyes and rested back. She blinked as she felt Rin curl up against her side. She looked at the girl and smiled. This is nice... It almost feels like a family... She blushed just thinking about it. Me and Sesshomaru...as a family... Would it ever be able to happen? She rested back. I can only dream.
