Inuyasha's Baby Sitting Blues
Chapter 3: See the demon of your dreams, Sesshoumaru comes along!

Inuyasha's eyes widened, "YOU'RE A-----,"
Xiao slapped her hand against his mouth, "Shh, you'll wake the others, and they need their rest. And yes, I am a half demon cat, Inuyasha--how else do you think a child of five would know what arduous, eclipse, and polychromatic mean?!"
"Well...true...but don't you care what others think? Aren't you scared of hunters?"
"I do...that's why I hide my ears and tail,"
"TAAAIL?!"
"Shh, yes a tail," She unleashed her tail from under her dress garments, "I had to hide them, otherwise I'd be shunned by the public,"
"Ah, I think I know how that feels," He said with a sigh.
She nodded and put the hat on his head, "Adorable!" She smiled.
For the first time, Xiao saw Inuyasha smile happily, rather than his fake laugh or grinning. But Inuyasha wondered why he couldn't smell the demon in her scent.

Back at the campsite, the little blonde haired girl sat by the fire and watched it dance with the wind. She was so bored now--everyone was asleep, and she wasn't tired at all. So she stood watch instead.
Maybe like an hour or so later, a small brunette pranced into the campsite. She had some of her hair in a ponytail at the top of her head, and the rest of it loose. She had on a red ripped kimono with flowers. The little girl's brown eyes danced over to the campsite and she saw little Xiao staring right back. Xiao was excited, but the tiny girl was shy.
This little girl was Sesshoumaru's Rin-chan. And if she's around, Fluffy isn't too far behind. Rin inched slowly towards the encampment, but Xiao took the work out of that because she ran right up to Rin.
"Hello, I'm Xiao Kino what's your name?"
Rin said nothing.
"Ummm?"
Rin smiled.
"She can't talk yet,"
The voice came from Xiao's left. Out of the shadows came a full-fledged demon with a long, fluffy tail over his shoulder, a sheathed sword hanging from his right thigh and a bluish moon on his forehead.
This is Lord Sesshoumaru, in the flesh.
