I got off my fat butt and updated it's a miracle
Sorry it took so long. Hope you don't read this and think "I waited so long for this!!!" but hey it isn't that bad I don't think.

Rin looked up at Sesshomaru and said all too sweetly "Sesshomaru-sama, do you remember what day it is?" with a smirk that hadn't quite faded yet. "My dear, dear Rin what kind of yokai do you think I am to forget my favorite companions birthday?" He mocked playfully. Whilst pulling a beautifully wrapped parcel from his robes. The gift was covered in the finest black Chinese silk and embroidered with silver and sapphire dragons. "It's marvelous! I-I don't know what to say." She stammered. "Rin you do realize that's only the covering?" he laughed. Pleased he'd never spoiled her. " Oh right, of course." She said blushing. ", How silly of me." She then pulled back the silk reveling a small wooden box about two inches high, five inches wide and almost two feet long. There were two doors, each with beautifully etched hitoezakura. ' Well I'm not going to embarrass myself this time' she thought. Opening the two doors she was astonished to see a silver dagger. The hilt was very simple only having a black leather grip and a small sphere on the end. Though the double-edged blade was imprinted with some foreign language. Stared at it curiously. "It's called Coptic, at least that's what my friend said." Sesshomaru told her. "Who is this friend of yours?" she asked, then added a bit more respectfully, "That is if you don't mind me asking Sesshomaru-sama.". ****************************************************************************

Rin walked back to the camp. As she approached she remembered that Sesshomaru had brought another demon with him and she had no idea why. " Well I'll have to talk to her then wont I". She would have asked sesshomaru but he had left again. 'He probably had business to attend to back home.' She thought. 'I'll bet it had some thing to do with that Dhul Fiqar, the swordsmen from Egypt. ' She reached camp and immediately found the kitsuni. "Well hello I'm Shu'Al." The demon said seeing Rin. "You must be Rin." "Why yes I am." She said sitting next to Shu'Al on the grass. It was Rin who spoke next. "You seem to know who I am but I know nothing of you." She stated. "Oh forgive me I had assumed master Sesshomaru told you I am to be your new attendant, after all every well to do bride should have one. Don't you think?" she said smiling. "Well I suppose so. Though I've always been rather self-sufficient. Though I guess it would be nice to have someone to talk to, having only Jaken and Ah-Un most of the time."
'Damn it why didn't I just marry her like I planned!' Thought the demon lord. ' Well that's simple, you love her obviously.' said that little voice in his head.
Hope you enjoyed it hopefully it won't take so long next time
I used a few Arab names here. Dhul Fiqar- a prophet's sword Shu'Al- fox (I think it's the masculine form though) Coptic- an ancient form of writing (I think the Egyptians started using this after they were conquered by Greece at least that's how it looks to me) Hitoezakura- a type of cherry tree having only four petals on each blossom
