Chapter 4

Jade and Rin picked flowers with Jade showing the smaller girl how to make necklaces

and such from them. They spoke happily with Rin telling her funny stories about her

torture erm.... playtime with Jaken. When the little girl had asked her about her family

the older girl said she would never see them again in a sad tone and the little girl just

blinked at her nodding solemnly. "Rin will never see her family again either. They were

killed by bandits, but now her new family is Sesshomaru-sama and Jaken-san." she said.

"Maybe you'll find a new family too."

"Maybe, maybe." she replied thinking longingly of Shippo who was like a son to her and

her traveling companions Sango like an older sister and Miroku like an older brother and

Kaede who'd been like a mother to her.

She smiled thinking of her two companions. She'd been present at their wedding not to

long ago though they'd never find out about it. She'd been hiding in the trees watching

from above. She'd been angry when a youkai had decided to ruin her friends joyous

occasion and attack. Using her miko powers she disguised herself as a female inuyoukai

(Is that correct?) and killed it and left at a dead run hearing the people behind her wonder

who the demon was that had saved them. She was careful this time as she hid in the tops

of the trees again to watch the rest of the wedding keeping an eye out for anymore

demons. After it she checked to make sure Shippo was being properly taken care of

before she left to wander only to return and check on them all at least once a month.

Her musings were cut off as she sensed a youkai coming near her and Rin. She held her

hands before her like she was holding a katana and it came almost instantly. She whirled

around, senses on high alert. Was it him? Had he found her again?

Probing she was happy to find it was not him but she still kept a careful eye out. After

awhile she felt the presence stop at Sesshomaru's castle and relaxed letting her weapon

disappear again before returning her attention once again to the bright cheerful girl to her

side who was looking at her with amazement in her eyes again.

"How do you do that?"

"Do what Rin-chan?"

"Make things come out of thin air like that?"

"Oh well I found it hard to carry all of my weapons with me. I was a wanderer. Never

staying in one place for long. I found a miko who spent a lot of her life coming up with a

technique that would let you make your weapons out of your energy. You noticed how

my weapons are pink?"

"Yes."

"That's my energy. My purifying magic for the treasure I protect." her hand went into her

sleeve to make sure her treasure was still in there.

"Anyways she taught me the technique to make my load lighter as I traveled the lands.

The only places I never truly in was the Northern Lands and Western Lands I only skirted

those areas entering only the outskirts to watch people I once knew from afar." (Kouga is

Northern Lands isn't he? please correct me if I'm wrong. Thanks much)

"What do you protect?" the girl asked curiously.

"A curse." Jade said bitterly. Seeing the look on the girls face she added "It's best you

don't know or anyone for that matter."

Two sets of eyes watched the girls from afar hiding their presence to avoid detection.

"I'm glad you could come."

"I am to Sesshomaru-sama." an unkown voice said.

"What do you think?" he spoke in a cool tone.

"She looks a lot like her but a lot stronger then her."

"Hmmm."

"What have you found out about her?"

"Her name is Jade, she's a skilled miko, protects some type of treasure and has some type

of connection to my brother."

"Well she does look a lot like her. You know what he tried to do to her, maybe he tried

the same thing to this Jade person because of the likeness."

"Maybe."

They both kept their eyes trained on Jade listening to her conversation with Rin.

"You'll meet her tomorrow, not tonight. I want her to be surprised. If it's possible." he

added looking at her cool face that showed a tiny smile everynow and then when the little

girl said something to her.

"Aye I'll be seeing you tomorrow." was the reply as the speaker left.

Just exactly who are you Jade? Sesshomaru now by himself thought quietly.
