By this time, the gray morning light was seeping through Kaede's door.
Leave or stay.
Neither had to be permanent, but still, the choice was Rin's to decide.
Sesshomaru chose his words carefully, as though writing them in his mind as he spoke. He didn't want to influence her answer. The proposition deserved thoughtful consideration. She may be lonely for a while, and now unable to travel much due to the threat of his enemy. If not for that reason, then for the bitter cold. Not to mention the impending blizzard. Last night's snow was a mere dusting compared to the storm on the way.
Naturally, and without the slightest hesitation, Rin decided to leave with Sesshomaru.
