I don't own Inuyasha!
"This Sesshomaru actually does have someone that acts similar to your mate, Seiji," Sesshomaru gazes coldly at Seiji a young girl and toad youkai enter the clearing.
"Sesshomaru-sama!" Rin grins and runs up to the cold Lord, hugging his leg.
"Sesshomaru-sama! I tried to get her to stay…"
"That is enough, Jaken."
"Yes, milord," Jaken bows and hold his staff tightly.
"Kitty!" Rin smiles and runs to Rita as Rin spots Kirara.
"Hello Rin, my name is Rita, and this is Kirara," Rita kneels down so Rin can stroke Kirara, who begins to purr appreciatively.
"Rin is Rin! Where did Rita-chan get the pretty kitty?" Rin asks.
"She was my previous life's best and only friend, but if she has kittens, you will be the first to have your pick of them," Rita grins down at the little girl.
"Can Rin? Can Rin have a kitty, if kitty has kitties? Can Rin, Sesshomaru-sama?" Rin runs back to Sesshomaru and tugs on his pants.
"Yes, Rin," Sesshomaru sighed.
"A promise it is then!" Rita held out her pinky and took Rin's pinky with hers, "Pinky promise! You're not supposed to break it; if you do… something bad is supposed to happen."
"Would Rin get bad thing?"
"No, I would, because I made a promise to you," Rita smiles at the child, and releases the child's pinky.
"I see you are traveling with two more humans, brother," Sesshomaru stares Inuyasha down.
"So, you have one too, eh, Sesshomaru?" Seiji sighs as he sits up and Sakura plops into his lap.
"Rin is not my mate," Sesshomaru growls at Seiji.
"I'd say she's more of your daughter, ne Sesshomaru?" Rita smiles knowingly at the Youkai lord. Sesshomaru nods, keeping his calm, intellectual, front up.
Suddenly, a tornado like wind ambushed the group, "WHERE IS MY WOMAN! MUTTFACE?!"
"Koga," Inuyasha growls and manages to intercept the wolf, keeping Sesshomaru, Rin, and Rita at his back.
"Oh, the wimpy-wolf!" Rita mentally slaps herself for saying that aloud. It causes Inuyasha to smirk and Koga to growl.
"Where is she, dog-turd?" Koga growls again.
"Six feet under!" Rita steps away from Sesshomaru and Rin and stands right behind Inuyasha, "He's supposed to be with Ayame, ne?"
"Hai," Inuyasha whispers back.
"She died a long time ago," Rita spoke up again, but she had developed a strong grip on Inuyasha's haori. "Naraku killed her."
"That bastard!" Koga spit out angrily.
"You can help us kill Naraku, but you have to find Ayame, first!" Rita feels Inuyasha's hair brush her cheek, and she shivers slightly.
"Fine! I will… AYAME?!" Koga's mouth was wide open as he turned quickly and took off to find his promised, future mate.
"Well, that was amusing," Sesshomaru's mouth twitches to an almost smile.
"Now we still have to talk to Kagura…" Rita frowns. Everyone around her but Inuyasha goes silent. "Hello, she hates Naraku with every fiber of her being!"
"Rita, what are we going to do about my brother and the neko?" Inuyasha growls irritably.
Rita walks over to the neko lord and the cat-girl sitting in his lap, "Sakura! Hey girl, could you take your mate and keep him at home? I'll give you candy!" Rita pulls out a lollypop and holds it in front of Sakura.
"You're really think that is going to work?" Takato snorts.
"HAI! HAI! HAI!" Sakura bounces up and down in Seiji's lap, making Seiji moan.
"Okay! Here you go!" Rita hands over the now unwrapped lollypop to Sakura. Sakura bounces up and down on Seiji's lap a lot.
Takato sweat drops, "I guess it did work."
Sesshomaru and Rin follow Inuyasha, Rita, and Takato away from the clearing, leaving the two neko youkai alone, "Can Rin have some candy, Sesshomaru-sama?"
"Don't worry Sesshomaru," Rita smiles up at the great youkai. "Just make sure she doesn't eat more than one a day. If she does, she'll drive even you near madness," Rita handed Sesshomaru a small bag of candy. Sesshomaru frowns at the thought that his pup could drive him insane, "Trust me, it'll be worse than when Inuyasha is annoying you." That thought made Sesshomaru pale.
