Sesshomaru walked through the halls, glancing every now and then at the servants scurring to do their chores. Frightening the servants actually was more of a force of habit, it kept them in line, and working hard. Sesshomaru actually had his mind on the three new additions to the household, Kagura, Kanna, and Rin.
Rin was an actually very nice addition, she was merry and seemed to brighten up the entire house. Even Jaken seemed to be rather attached to the girl. Though Sesshomaru had no real idea why he had saved the child, he honestly didn't mind her around. Strangely enough she and Kanna got along well, Rin talked enough for both of them.
Kanna was a rather interesting girl, Kagura had explained that she had no real will of her own, taking orders without question. The only reason that she had gotten in Sesshomaru's company was that Naraku's hold wasn't that strong if she wasn't in his presence. Sesshomaru actually seemed to have a slight weakness for children, and had managed to break any hold Naraku had on her. Interestingly enough she had then become rather attaced to Rin, following her around everywhere. Kanna didn't talk much, but she was very loyal to Rin. Actually it was a rather relief, with Kanna around he didn't have to worry much about Rin, Kanna was rather powerfull and even Sesshomaru would be hard pressed to win in a fight. It was a good thing that her attacks weren't offensive.
Kagura was the real problem, she wasn't that obedient. Actually she was downright impudent, but she got the job done, and there was a wary respect. The only real reason she had teamedup with him was that she couldn't kill her former master, spirits were nearly impossible to banish. As it was she help in exchange for the protection that he could provide. She was strong enough that is was a rather good trade, especially because he disliked Naraku as much as she did.
His revery was interrupted by Jaken scurring up to him. The little toad groveled well, but he wasn't in the mood to deal with his jabbering, a quick glare silenced him and made him get to the point. When he gave his message Sesshomaru began to walk faster, he would have to take Kanna, Kagura, and Rin. Kagura was a rather strong addition, and he wasn't going to leave Rin and Kanna where they could be in danger.

"You are a rather hard person to find old man" Sesshomaru glared at the bullish man in front of him, he would be dead if he wasn't the very best at his craft. Toutousai was best described as stubborn, and would never go against anything that would violate his code as a craftsman.
"What do you want Sesshomaru?"
"I am here to make a request, I want you to make me a blade that can kill, not this rather useless Tensaiga."
"What are you talking about, that is a perfectly good sword!"
"It cannot kill."
"Sesshomaru, that sword is the brother to Tetsuigua, it is equal in power, you just have yet to master it."
"So tell me then, how was my brother able to defeat me?"
Toutousai looked up at the scowling Sesshomaru in surprise. Inuyasha being able to beat Sesshomaru was rather unprobable, especially with the huge difference in skill and tempermant. He would have to investigate this, but first he had to deal with Sesshomaru. He scowled, too many things that he needed to do.
"Well, Lord, I may be willing to make a weapon fitting your wishes, but I have too many things to do today. Especially find my bastard apprentice, he has runoff saying something about proving that he was a better smith."
Sesshomaru shrugged "I believe that apprentice of yours was out killing children to use their bodys in the creation of a weapon. He is no longer alive."
"What!?" Toutousai was rather surprised, that was rather out of character "Well, with that information, I may create a sword for you, give me a moment to decide."
"Very well, choose wisely." With that Sesshomaru walked back to where the others were staying, only to pick up the sound of battle.
Cursing the swordsmakers choice of habitat he ran toward the sounds to come upon it. Several unusual youkai were attacking Kagura and the others, currently Kanna was able to protect Rin and Jaken with her mirror. There were several dead from the powerfull forces that she wielded. Jaken kept her back, burning the ones who got to close.
The real fighting was being done by Kagura though, forcing those that Kanna had killed to rise and fight, with her wind capabilities she was decimating the youkai. Sending another tornado wirling she cursed, these youkai were very deadly, she already had several slices and cuts.
Then sesshomaru entered the fray, transforming into his true, gigantic form he destroyed countless swarms. Unfortunatly they kept coming, he growled and motioned the others to get near by him, getting rather annoyed by th swarm of small ones.
Then the leader showed, and the horde's origin became clear, they weren't youkai, they were demons. Creatures from hell, and a very bad thing. The leader was flame incarnate, carrying a wip and grinning demonicly, he was a s large as Sesshomaru himself. He swung at Kanna, trying to get to Rin. When it bounced back, hitting the demon himself he became enraged. Sesshomaru gave a battle cry himself, hatred pouring from every aspect of his body. Youkai and demons may be similar in appearace and temperment, but hate didn't come close to describing what they felt for demons.
Sesshomaru charged, ripping into the demonic creature, who clasped its claws around his throat, trying to strangle him. Kague provided a timely distraction by sending a blade of wind at the demon, and payed for it. The demon threw Sesshomaru against a tree, and taking up his wip he slice Kagura in half, killing her instantly.
Sesshomaru was irratated now, transforming back to human form and backhanding away one of the minor demons still lingering he charged, drawing his sword. With a quick swipe at Kagura he put it away and speed toward the demon. In this form his speed was far superior to the demon and it was unable to hit the youkai. His claws bagan to rend and tear, the poison from his one hand disintegrating the demon piece by piece. As the demon roared in rage, Kagura's tornado went toward it, sending a myriad of cuts across its body.
With almost blinding speed Sesshomaru tranformed once more and charged, ripping out its throat. The demon gurgled and was still. Looking at the demon in disgust he motioned to Kagura.
"Well done, we will be returning soon,after I get a sword from Toutousai. We have no time to bicker if we are to stop this invasion."
Toutousai, had no real choice, they needed the power. He made the sword out of Sesshomaru's fang, but it did have a little twist, when Rin grew up it was to be hers, as the adopted daughter of the youkai lord.
