Chapter 3
We're leaving?
Sesshomarus eyes widened as she spoke to him. Angels? What
was she talking about. Right now Sesshomaru had only one goal. Find out
about her and get her back home so she didn't have to polute his air with
her retched human stench.
He immediatly slaped hiself for saying that. He had to correct
himself. Her smell was anything but retched. Infacted it was the best scent
he had ever encountered, but he wasn't about to admit that to anyone.
especialy the woman.
"Your name. What is your name woman?"
He spoke; his voice was cold and harsh. The woman tilted her
head and her eyes narrowed as if she was wondering something.
"My name is Rin."
Her voice was slightly high-pitched and soft. Before Sesshomaru
could as her about which village she was from she sat up in bed and raised
her head diffiantly.
"What shall I call you, demon?"
Sesshomaru narrowed his eyes at her and grabbed her throught
slamming her against the headboard. Rin raised an eyebrow like that didn't
bother her.
"Know your place human. never disrespect this Sesshomaru!"
Rin smiled as Sesshomaru let her slip out of his grasp.
"I know my place. And I am no less alive than you are so don't
you dare berate me."
Sesshomaru glared at her. How could she disrespect him like
this? He was Lord Sesshomaru of the western lands. Sitting up straight
she sighed and looked up at him.
"So I guess your called Sesshomaru?"
"I am Sesshomaru Lord of the Western Lands."
Rin smiled and threw back the sheets that covered her only to f
ind that she was completely stark naked. She shreiked and threw them
back on top of her. Sesshomaru smirked inwardly, but kept on his
emotionless face.
"A servent will be in here with a new kimono for you soon."
Sighing Rin nodded and slouched down. She looked
Sesshomaru up and down. Sesshomaru couldn't figure out for the life of him
why this woman was so unafraid of him. Infact she showed no fear at all.
Instead she showed bravery.
The thing that realy got him though was the way her whole body
seemed to flushed when she pulled the sheets away from herself. He had
to admit she had a lovely body.
The tension seemed to build between them as the minutes
passed. Sesshomaru had stayed in her room even though he had other
buisness to attened to. Finaly after ages of silence the servent, Keira,
came to the door way and bowed pulling back the curtain. Sesshomaru
nodded to her .
"Come in Keira. Dress her and escort her to the dinning hall."
Sesshomaru stood and left the two in the room. Keira walked in, never looking up. She placed the kimono on the bed and looked up to Rin.
"Your kimono, Rin-sama"
Rin was shocked to say the least. She had never before been
adressed so formaly and it confused her a bit. She took the kimono from
Keira and couldn't help but notice the girl looked releived.
"Why do you look like you have just been granted life in shackles
and not the death penalty?"
Keira looked up with a confused expression and than spoke. Her
voice was horse and deep.
"I...," She cleared her throught,"...I thought I was to dress you."
Rin smiled softly at the timid slave. She pulled herself from the
sheets of the futon and wrapped the kimono around herself; tieing it around
the waist. She walked to Keira and placed a hand on her shoulder.
"I can very well dress myself. Please, do not adress me so
formaly. Just call me Rin."
Keira smiled and Rin found great joy in seeing it. Than Keira
tilted her head in the direction of the door. It was ment as a fallowing sign. I
stopped her and my eyes narrowed with curiosity.
"Keira...why is it so hard for you to speak now?"
"Lord Sesshomaru does not like us to speak. He keeps a quiet
household."
Rin nodded and walked out with her. As she stepped in to the
hall way she saw portraits and hangings and scrolls on the walls. She was
amased by how Sesshomaru had come to gain these things.
The more she walked the louder the silence became. She sighed
loudly and Keira noticably flinched. She must have been telling the truth
than. This castle must be full of servents who are used to dead silence.
How horrid was that. They probably never her the beuty of song
before either. She would have to sing to them in the slaves chambers one
day. There was no way she was going to stay in this house long with out
music. Than again she wasn't going to be staying here anyways.
She still had to find her daughter. Kami help her if anyone
touched her daughter. They would die a thousand deaths. Than as they
neared the dining area her thoughts lead her Tomahome.
They hadn't been close emotionaly, just physicaly. Rin was
paining because of Kia and Toma was just as lonely without a mate. They
had met and things got way to out of hand. The first encounter caused
Miaka and the second, she didn't yet know.
Shaking the thought of Toma out of her head she saw
Sesshoamru sitting at a rather long table. She sat and looked straight at
him. She placed her hands in her lap and narrowed her eyes.
"When will I be set free to find my daughter."
"You will not be. I will be acompanying you on your search."
Rin was utterly and completely confused now. Why was he
offering her help? There had to be some kind of catch. She had to owe him
something in return. Than she asked the question that had been nagging
her.
"Why did you save me from Kia?"
Sesshomaru stood. He didn't know the answer to that question
so he wouldn't say a thing. Quickly he made his way to her and spoke.
"Be ready. We will be leaving at new light."
Rin nodded and watched him turn and dissapear in to the hall.
She couldn't shake this feeling that her daughter was being hurt some
where. It made her eyes sting with the need to cry.
"Inuyasha...lets get going I don't sence any shards."
Inuyasha stood stalk still. He had caught the scent of a half
demon. Normaly he wouldn't of cared inless they had a shard, but in this
one he could feel the half demons pain. He turned toward Kagome.
"Kagome, come with me."
He bent his knees and Kagome climbed on him. In a flash they
were off. They were getting closer he could scent it out among the village
below. The smell of blood asaulted him and he landed right infront of a verry
young looking girl.
He could immediatly tell she was the half demon he had
scented. She looked frightened and she spoke one word over and over
again.
"Don't...don't..."
Kagome shimmied off of Inuyasha's back and slowly made her
way to the girl. She held out her hand and smiled.
"Hello there. I'm Kagome... whats your name?"
The young demon looked up at her and whispered so softly
Kagome barely herd it.
"Miaka..."
Kagome smiled brightly as the girl placed her small hand in her
bigger one.
"What a beautiful name. What are you doing out here all by
yourself?"
"My daddy hurt me and left me here. He said mommy wouldn't
come for me."
Kagome's eyes widened and she scooped the little girl in her
arms. There was no way she was going to let this girl stay by herself. She
looked to Inuyasha who in turn sighed, but said nothing.
Kagome took that as an 'bring her along' and climbed on his
back, the little safely held. They made there way back to Songo and
Miroku. Once they arrived they had to figure out what to do with this little
one.
