Rin's eyes slowly fluttered open as she winced from the pain in her ribs as she took a few breaths. She had been in a comatose state for almost a week now and still hadn't healed completely. She sat up carefully and saw she she was in her own room. Shit! she thought as she thought about how he found her.

Rin tried to get up out of bed but was pushed down by something invisible. Her door was pushed open and her lord walked to the bed. His eyes remained emotionless as he stared at her.

"I am very disappointed in you Rin. Just because of your feelings you ran off. You didn't even talk with me." His eyes flashed something like hurt, but it quickly vanished and Rin thought she was imagining it. Her head bowed as her black tresses fell, covering her chocolate eyes so he couldn't see her tears.

His eyes widened as he smelt her tears. "Sesshoumaru-sama please forgive me, but as soon as I am healed I am to go on my way. I don't want to live here anymore. As it was, it is all explained in the letter I gave you. Now...will you excuse me while I bathe myself?" she asked, looking at him.

"That isn't necessary Rin, I have already bathed you," he answered in a matter-of-fact tone. His eyes widened then and he turned away. "What I mean to say is-" but she cut him off.

"What you mean to say is that you looked over my body while I was in a dream state and you didn't even have a female servant to cleanse me!" her eyes widened as she glared at him, heat rising to her cheeks. Suddenly a light but forceful smack was delivered to her mouth.

"You will not speak to this Sesshoumaru like that ever again, you disgusting human!" he shouted and instantly took back his words. "Rin..." Her eyes were clouded with tears as she made herself get up, wincing from her pain. Her breath caught in her throat. The pain was too intense.

She walked as quick as she could to her closet and pulled out a green silk kimono with cats playing at the tails. She discarded her sleeping kimono and put her green one on, not really caring if Sesshoumaru saw her or not. She pulled out her black obi and tied it around her waist. She pulled another thing from her closet. The only thing left of her mother. A black velvet cloak, trimmed with silver and red fox fur around the hood, cuffs, and hem of the cloak. The buckle was a silver one that had been made into the shape of a fox.

"Good-bye Sesshoumaru." With that she started out of the room, cloak in hand, but his claw went around her wrist. She tried to wriggle it off; his grip was too strong.

"Rin, now you listen to me, you are being childish!" he growled, but she turned her face to him, her eyes laced with coldness and malice. Her lips turned up into a scary smile as she pulled her wrist from his hand, advancing toward him.

"You, Sesshoumaru-baka are calling me a CHILD?! I AM THE ONE WHO LEFT TO SAVE MYSELF FROM HEARTACHE AND YOU FROM ME AND I AM ONLY A CHILD?!" her voice calmed somewhat, but a deadly whisper came from her throat. "Then you have the nerve to call me a disgusting human? Well...we'll see how long I stick around." She pretended to think then smirked coldly, "I won't be around that's right, I am leaving." She hissed at him once and turned as she walked out glad he didn't even try to stop her this time.

She walked out into the night, her cloak draped around her, and her katana at her side. She

heard a quick rustle in the leaves of the trees and walked faster, worried that a youkai was out for a nice little nighttime snack. Looking to her left she drew her katana at the sound of hooves and sighed looking at her short bladed sword, then to the thing that made the noise.

"Gods, Jerico you scared me half to death!" She swatted him slightly upside the head and sheathed her sword quickly and hugged the torso of the male that had trotted to her. His lower body, his coat gleamed silvery in the moonlight.

"Yes, well, us centaurs tend to scare people." He laughed merrily and patted his back. "Hop on," he said, seeing her tears finally. She obliged and got onto his back, laying her head on his shoulder.

"Take me away, Jerico, I want to leave this forest." she murmured tiredly. She felt his hands on her shoulders and slowly she felt herself healing. She sighed and starting singing a song she had wrote when she was about ten.

"I'm giving up on everything

Because you messed me up

Don't know how much you screwed it up,

You never listened, well that's just too bad."

Rin sang this song slowly and drifted to sleep as Jerico walked out of Sesshoumaru's forest, his blonde hair gleaming in the night.
