------------------------------
During Rin's 8th month of pregnancy, Rin had been setting up a crib in her room for her new baby. She was not sure whether it was to be a boy or a girl. She was thinking of giving the baby a neutral name, so she would not be disappointed if she gave a boy name to a girl, or the oppisite. Rin could not think of a neutral name, so she came up with two names, one for a boy and one for a girl. Then, when she realized she was not capable of giving a demon baby a good name, she decided if it were to be a boy, she would let Sesshomaru name it.
Rin at first thought that this was a great idea. Not long after that, Rin gave birth to a boy. She did as she planned, and let Sesshomaru name it. Unfortunatly, Sesshomaru did not know any good names for the child. They both blushed in embrassement. That poor child...
Because neither Rin or Sesshomaru could name the child, Rin looked up a word in the dictionary. It didn't matter what the word was as long as it was fit for their child. She finally found him, and they both agreed on the name. His name was Mamoru, which meant Earth. Rin already loved that child with all her heart, what more could the baby ask of her?
That night, Rin rocked the baby to sleep in her arms. When she was possitive that the child was sleep, she walked him over to his crib by the window. She wrapped him up in beautiful blue silk sheets. She kissed the baby's forehead, and looked up at the window. But, what she found outside was somehing she never wanted to see in her life. It was InuYasha's eyes. They stared hard at her, she shivered. She looked at her baby who was fast asleep by the window.
She shivered again before running toward the window to grab her baby. The second her foot moved, the window glass shattered in front of her. She screamed, and grabbed her baby. She held him close to her bosom and kept her head down, hoping the glass would not touch him. She looked at Sesshomaru, who was standing behind her. His eyes were bright red, he was staring at InuYasha who was sitting on the window seel.
"What's the matter, dear brother? You want to be part of my fun, too?" asked InuYasha.He smiled at SEsshomaru, with a strange wickedness on his face. Sesshomaru growled deeply in his throat before whispering,
"Get Out." He said. InuYasha smiled.
"Remember, Brother, you can't ever get rid of me. I can still haunt Rin's heart. I can still scare her." After saying that, InuYasha disappeared. Rin shivered. She hugged her baby, who was now screaming, probably angry at Rin for waking him up so suddenly. Rin walked over to Sesshomaru.
"InuYasha...Is he a ghost?" she asked. Sesshomaru's eyes went back to their original color, and Sesshomaru looked at her. His face said it all. Yes, he was a ghost. No, he does not want to talk about it. The child in Rin's arms was still screaming. Rin put him back in his crib, and he fell asleep. Rin looked at Sesshomaru with worry on her face. Sesshomaru walked over to her, and hugged her. Rin hugged him back. They passionatly kissed, (AN: And they did it again...) Rin concieved again.
While Rin slept next to Sesshomaru, she started having nightmares. she would see InuYasha, with a gun in his hand, or with a sword, or a chainsaw, and he would be murdering Rin. Rin often woke up sweating. She sighed and looked at her lover at her side. She rubbed her temples with er fingertips. She wanted to kill InuYasha, but he was too scary. Rin stayed awake all night till the sun shone through the curtains, and her baby started crying. Rin got out of the bed and walked over to her baby. She hugged him, and walked over to her bed, and sat on the edge.
When Sesshomaru woke up not long after Rin got her baby, he sat up, and saw Rin on the edge. He smiled, then got up, and walked into the closet. Rin waited for Sesshomaru to come out. When he did, he wore a black Michiyuki. It looked as though it were made of silk, and it probably was since he was the Lord of the Western Lands. After he came out of the closet, Rin gave the baby to Sesshomaru and she went into the closet. She put on a silk kimono too. Hers was a light shade of Red, with a green undercoat. She also had a matching green choker.
Rin smiled, then walked over to SEsshomaru to get her baby. Mamoru started crying again. Rin exspected that he was hungry, for he slept all night without any milk. She was very modest about things like that, so she took a blue sheet from his crib, and laid it over her chest as she fed him. Even if Sesshomaru was the only one in the room, she did not want anyone to see.
Sesshomaru looked at her, then at the blanket that was laid over her chest. He smiled slightly, he looked out the window, then at the door.
"Do you want me to wait for you?" Sesshomaru asked. Rin looked at him, her eyes had some worry in them.
"Where are we going?" she asked. Sesshomaru looked at the door, then back at Rin.
"We're going to meet someone in the saukra orchard." He said. Rin was at first confused. Why would we meet them there? It's in the back of the castle. She shrugged it off, and when she finished feeding Mamoru, she redid her kimono and put the blanket back in his crib. She had not much of a choice but to bring the baby with her when she left to meet the new person.
They walked outside of the castle and into the orchard where the cherry blossoms were falling like snow. Then, Rin saw a shadow of some sort in the distance. She looked a little hard, but could not see anything different. When they were closer, she saw a woman. This woman had long dark brown hair that was tied into a low ponytail. She had a light purple color of her eyelids, otherwise she wore no make up. She had on a pink kimono with a green obi.
"Rin, this is Sango. Sango is going to be your maidservant, okay? She will watch the baby while you and me are gone, or if you are ill." He said. Sango smiled at Rin.
"Nice to meet you, Rin. Lord Sesshomaru has told me all about you." she said in a cheerful voice. Rin smiled at Sango, butstopped when she saw the choker she wore. Sango was wearing a choker with the Star of David on it. Sango was a Jew!
"Aw! What an adorable baby! What's his name?" asked Sango, as she rubbed the baby's silver hair.
"Oh, his name is Mamoru." she said sheepishly. Sango smiled at the baby.
"What a beatiful name for such a baby as he!" she said. "I see you two are having another one." she said looking at Rin. Rin's eyes widened.
"How would you know? I just got pregnant last night." Rin was a little suspicious.
"Haha! I didn't know you were having another one! I just said that to see if you really were." Sango laughed. Rin's tension went down, this Sango character might turn out to be just what Rin needed. Sesshomaru looked at the two women, they both seemed happy.
"Sango, let me show you inside the castle." Rin said. She gave the baby to Sesshomaru, and grabbed Sango's hand and they both ran into the castle like children. Sesshomaru sighed, Rin shouldn't be running like that while she's pregnant. It didn't make much of a difference, since Rin and Sango were already in the castle.
"I look forward to working for you, Rin. And I hope your pregnancy goes well!" said Sango after Rin gave her a tour of the castle.
"I look foward to having you work for me!" said Rin, and they both waved goodbye, and Sango was led by a guard, to her room. "I like that Sango kid. She's alright." Rin said to Sesshomaru, who was putting the baby in his crib.
"I'm sure she is." He said. Rin smiled, and they both had a good night's sleep that night.
