Rin looked up at the cresant moon. It looked just like the moon on her Lord Sesshoumaru's forehead. She sighed. It had been ten years since he left her in the village at the age of six, almost seven.

FlashBack

Sesshoumaru, Rin, and Jaken entered a village. The vilage priestess met them before they got to far into the village.

"Leave demons," she said then stopped when she saw Rin.

"I'm not here to cause trouble," Sesshoumaru said, "I'm here to leave Rin to grow up among her own kind."

Rin's eyes snapped up to look at Sesshoumaru, tears started to form in her eyes. "You aren't going to leave Rin here, are you?" She asked.

Sesshoumaru looked at her, "It's for the best."

He looked at the priestess. She gave a little nod and went to pick up Rin. Rin tried to get away but Sesshoumaru gave her a warning look. She stopped and let herself get picked up.

"Behave Rin!" Sesshoumaru comanded. Then he and Jaken left.

Rin stared after them until they disappeared, then she started to cry.

During the ten years Rin lived there, she learned the powers of the priestess, she helped get rid of demons trying to take over the village, and she learned how to fight with a sword.

End FlashBack

Rin sat there, looking at the moon, when she heard footsteps behind her. She turned around fast, sword being unsheathed at the same time, and got in attack position. The village priestess, her mentor, was the one coming. Rin put away her sword and gave a little bow.

"Konichima, Priestess Saki," said Rin.

"Rin," replied the priestess with a bow. "There is a visitor here to see you."

"All right, I'll be there in a few."

Priestess Saki Left. Rin stood there not knowing if she really wanted to see the visitor. It was most likely to be Sesshoumaru and she didn't know if she could forgive him.

Finally she decided to go down and meet this visitor of hers.

Sesshoumaru saw a young woman coming down a hill. She was beautiful. Jaken saw her too and his jaw dropped a little. The young woman got down the hill and stopped in front of them.

"Konichiwa," said the young woman with a bow.

Sesshoumaru gave a little nod.

"Can I help you with anything?" She asked.

"We are waiting for someone," Jaken replied.

"Oh, can I talk with you while you wait?" She asked, a smile starting to form on her face.

"You may," Sesshoumaru stated, startling Jaken.

"Thank you. What are you demons doing here? I mean...usually they get rid of your kind."

"We dropped off a girl here with the priestess of your village."

"Oh, her name's Rin, isn't it?"

"Yes, that's her. Do you know where she is? The priestess said she was coming."

"Maybe she ran off. I mean...I would run of if I was left with a village I didn't know about."

Sesshoumaru looked at Jaken then back at the young woman. "We better go find her. That is probably what she did. Thank you."

They started to leave. The young woman's smile was complete. "Wait, let me join you. You won't recognize her now. She grew older so she looks different, you wouldn't recognize her without me."

"All right." Sesshoumaru said.

"Wait, Lord Sesshoumaru," Jaken said. "If Rin is older, than this young woman could be Rin."

"Me, Rin! The demon slayer! You've got to be kidding! Me, a demon slayer, I wish." The young woman said, her smile so big it looked like it hurt. Then she started to laugh. She fell to the ground and shook with laughter.

Sesshoumaru looked at her. He was confused at why she was laughing, then he saw a sword and caught a whiff of her scent.

"Behave Rin!" Sesshoumaru said. The young woman stopped immediately and stood up.

"Yes, my Lord Sesshoumaru," she replied. "You've finally figured me out. It took you awhile."

"I've come to get you."

"What if I don't want to be with you anymore."

"Rin!" Sesshoumaru warned.

"I'm sixteen almost seventeen. I don't have to do anything I don't want to."

"What happened to your kindness?"

"I've grown cold and hard, like you, ever since you left me here."

"I left you here for your own good."

"If you must know, my 'own good' as you say, would have been to stay with you."

Rin sat down on a rock, tears starting to form in her eyes. "I loved you and what did you do? You left me here and broke my heart."

Sesshoumaru stood there not knowing what to do while Rin cried, turning the dirt into mud.
