I don't own Inuyasha
Chapter five
The orphanage
"You have a way with words." Kagome told Sesshomaru. "You and Inuyasha have more in common then I thought." She then giggled a little. "I always get what I want." Sesshomaru spoke to her. "Tell me what an orphanage is?" Kagome spoke then. "It's a place where children who have no families go to stay until their adopted. We may be too late again, she may have been adopted." Sesshomaru spoke again. "I will find Rin, no matter who gets in my way." Sesshomaru then gripped his swords. "You know I'm glad I gave those peace protectors to you." She then looked at the address. "We're on the right street; it should be just a few blocks up." She told Sesshomaru as he sniffed the air. "I smell smoke." He then ran off toward the smoke smell.

"Sir I'm sorry but we have a problem." Ken Shipa said to the dean of Shinto orphanage. The dean sighed. "Let me guess." He said. "Sesso again?" Ken nodded. "That tomboy has been a thorn in my side for too long. What is it this time, fighting?" Ken nodded again. "Three boys are in the nurses' office right now, all sporting black eyes and bruises." The dean sighed again. "Sir, I may have an idea. Rin is far too aggressive for her own good. Why don't we enlist her in some self defense classes?" The dean thought for a moment. "It will discipline and guide her." Ken spoke again in the dean's ear. "Alright send her in." The girl that was now known as Rin Sesso came in. She had a partial black eye. "So how'd it happen this time?" The dean asked her. "They were making fun of me, saying I didn't know anything." She stammered at him. "So who threw the first punch?" Rin hung her head down low. "Me." She answered. "Your punishment will be this; you now have dish duty for the rest of the week." The dean told her. "Since you like to fight I'm going to do something for you." Rin sighed. "You are going to start taking classes in martial arts." He then handed her a list "here are your options, you may pick two." Rin sighed in relief. She then looked at the list. "These two." She pointed and the dean looked. "Kendo and tai kwan do? So be it." He told her and she left, he then went into the waiting room and picked up a sheet of paper. "Did she draw this?" he asked ken. "When I left the room she was drawing." He looked at the paper. "It's not bad for her age." They were both looking at a drawing of three people. One was a short green little man with a staff, another was obviously a drawing of Rin, and the final person was a tall man with white hair. The dean put his hand to his chin. "Gigen, me, and lord Sesshomaru. So this is a picture of her old family? Didn't do a good enough job if you asked me." Ken tried to help. "Don't worry sir; someone will want to adopt her some day." "Oh, well. Might as well put this into her file."
The two of them ran until they came to the front of the orphanage. "Oh, no. It's burning." Kagome cried out. "Stay here." Sesshomaru said as he ran through the gates and into the burning building.
