Chapter 3 - Rin's New Caretaker
As usual, Jill was up and about early in the morning. She glanced at her watch. 5:30am. She looked at the now burnt-out campfire and everyone sleeping. She silently made her way past the sleeping humans, demon, and hanyou. She looked back to make sure no one had woken up. Seeing that they were all asleep, she continued walking away.
When she was about ten minutes away from camp, something grabbed her ankle.
THUMP!
She landed on the ground, but quickly jerked back up. She stood up in her fighting stance (fists at the ready). "Who dares? Show yourself!"
There was no reply.
"Hey! Answer me now! Or would you like a piece of me!"
Still no answer.
She shrugged it off nervously and started walking away again. The same thing grabbed her ankle, but this time she was ready and she grabbed whatever was at her ankle and picked.
"EEEEEWWWWWWWWW!!" She shrieked at the disgusting toad thing. "HOW DARE YOU TOUCH ME, YOU DISGUSTING TOAD!" She bellowed at the ugly thing in her hands.
"Yes, he is disgusting, isn't he?" And emotionless voice stated from behind her.
Before she could turn around, the speaker of the voice was in front of her with a sword at her throat.
"But then again, so are humans such as yourself." He answered.
Jill looked him over. He was pretty tall, but not a giant. He seemed very strong and important by just the way he looked. He had a shaped of a crescent moon on his forehead with stripes on his cheeks and wrists. Although he wasn't disgusting like that toad goblin, she was still mad at him for calling her disgusting.
"I'm not disgusting!" Was all that Jill could say.
Sesshoumaru was surprised at this, but of course he did not allow himself to show it. A lowly human talking to the Lord of the Western Lands. He was furious at this girl he head just met and he was set in teaching her a lesson. He grabbed her by her collar of her strange kimono and lifted her so that his face was directly in hers.
"Your position does not allow you to speak to me like that!" He sputtered at her.
"Oh really! Well, what is my position and what exactly is your position? A cold-hearted freak with pointy ears?"
He was fuming now and he swiped his claws (his left hand, thankfully) against her cheeks which gave her two striped of blood across her cheeks.
"Oh. My. God! You asked for it now!" She rushed at the man and before she knew it, she was in the air.
"My name is Sesshoumaru. The Lord Youkai of the Western Lands. And you. You are a human. Therefore, you are my subordinate and you WILL OBEY ME!"
"You wish!" Jill pouted.
"Trust me, you will!" And he cuffed the flat of his sword upon Jill which made her fall unconscious.

Kagome woke up to see everyone was up, minus Shippo and Jill. She figured that Shippo still would be, for he loved to sleep. But she was puzzled that Jill was still asleep. She alasy woke up early.
"Finally! You sleep so long!" Inu-Yasha was talking to her, but he was looking to the horizon where his brother's castle was hidden.
Kagome ignored his comment and groggily from still being a little asleep, made her way to Jill's sleeping area. Twice in only twenty-four hours, Kagome found that Jill wasn't in her bed (or on a bed of leaves, in this case).
She sprinted to the branch where Inu-Yasha was sitting on.
"Inu-Yasha, have you seen Jill?" She asked him
Inu-Yasha didn't move his gaze from the horizon when he spoke to her. "Why would I care where that bitch is?"
"Because I said so, now we are going to go look for her."
"But, we have to go find Sesshouamru before he leaves his castle again."
Kagome huffed and decided upon something. "Then we will search for her in the direction of Shesshoumaru's castle."
Inu-Yasha figured he couldn't budge Kagome's mind, so he agreed reluctantly.
The group packed up and started towards Sesshoumaru's castle again.

"Where am I?" Jill asked to the dark. Then she remembered. She had been tripped by an ugly toad goblin and been kidnapped by a man with pointy ears. Maybe it was a dream. But a voice made her change her mind that it was definitely reality.
"I see you have finally come around, have you?" The same man who had kidnapped her said as he stepped out from the darkness into the light.
"Yeah, whatever, Sesshomoon." She didn't even bothering trying to remember his name.
"It's Sesshoumaru, wench!"
"Like I give a shit!" She glared at him.
She got up from the hard mattress she was on.
She was about to speak when a young girl came running in. "Oooh! A girl! Is she going to be Rin's new mommy?" She glanced hopefully at Sesshouamru.
Jill smiled at the girl, she guessed was Rin. She had her hair in a side ponytail and she had a checkered kimono. Then she angrily turned towards Sesshoumaru.
"You don't mean to imply that-" She began.
Before she could finish, Sesshoumaru shot daggers at her. "Of course not, wench! You think I would ever fall in love. And with a human?"
"Oh, yeah, I forgot, we're disgusting."
The girl called Rin's lip quivered and her eyes started to water. She looked up to Sheeshoumaru. "Y-you think I'm disgusting, Sesshoumaru-sama?"
Sesshouamru looked down at the girl. "Of course not." He unemotionally answered.
"So, if she's not going to be my new mommy, why did you bring her here?" Rin asked Sesshouamru.
Sesshouamru decided to direct his answer at Jill. "You, will be Rin's new caretaker, and playmate and that stuff. Now go." And he waved his hand as if to dismiss her.
"What?! I'm not your slave!" Jill argued with him.
Sesshouamru effortlessly took out his word again and placed it under Jill's throat. "If you want to live, you will be."
Jill had the intelligence to know that her life was in danger if she stayed in the room any longer and she went out the door.
As she turned the corner, she stopped suddenly. 'Didn't Kagome say that Sesshoumaru stole a jewel shard. This must be the same Sesshoumaru.' She glanced into the room she was standing next to and noticed lots of important things were in it. 'Hm, maybe I can get this jewel shard back for Kagome.' And she decided to step into the room to look for it.
After about an hour of search, Jill started looking at obvious places and found the shard. 'Why didn't I look in the obvious places first?' But she just shrugged and turened towards the door, jewel shard in hand, humming to herself in success.
She then looked up and noticed Sesshoumaru in the doorway.
He looked at Jill, shaking his head. "It is not a very good idea stealing from the Youkai Lord of the Western Lands. Now, you will have to pay." When he was finished speaking, he flexed his claws, and this time, it was his right hand.
