Summary: Part 14 of Jaken's Ballad.
Standing before them had to be the strangest demon Jaken had ever laid his large, yellow eyes upon. He had no claws, no fangs, no elven ears and was even hairless. He was not of the dog clan or the fox clan. Not of the toad or wolf clans. Nor the panther or two-tailed.
He was simply a tree. A rather large and obviously old tree. So natural looking, that at first glance, Jaken had simply thought he was merely another tree, but after a few moments of silence, the tree had opened his mouth and spoken to Sesshoumaru.
"It has been a while, pup. What brings you all the way out to my forest?" His words had startled Jaken, but Sesshoumaru seemed to either be completely used to them or able to perfectly hide his surprise. Whatever the case may have been, the demon lord simply stood there staring at the demon tree in silence for a long moment, until he finally opened his eyes and turned his full attention to him.
"You already know the reason this Sesshoumaru is here, Bokusenou. Do not bother pretending that is not so," Sesshoumaru warned, or in his own way suggested, as he stared impassively at the much taller demon before him.
"If that is so, pup, then you already know the answer. Your sword awaits you where it has been since that day." Bokusenou reminded him as he glanced down at the sheathed sword laying beside his trunk.
