Kagome the Cat Demon Chapter 8 Training, for Battle and Otherwise

Kagome and Kathy returned to the Feudal Era that weekend. Shippo and everyone else were glad to see them. Kouga walked up to Kagome.

" Kagome I have a present for you." he said.

" Really?" She asked. Inuyasha death glared Kouga, but didn't move.

" Yeah." Kouga handed Kagome the "Kitten", then closed his eyes and waited for his kiss, but it never came. He opened his eyes and saw Kagome talking with Sango.

" He's adorable." Said Sango. Kirara walked up to him and meowed in greeting.

" Yes, I wonder how he'll get along with Bouyo?" Kagome thought aloud, she turned back to Kouga who was looking shocked. ' I gotta thank him' She thought. " Thanks Kouga." She said.

' Thanks? That's all I get!' thought Kouga angrily.

" Ley's get moving everyone." Inuyasha called. They all said goodbye to Kaede and left.

In a forest

Rin walked along side Sesshoumaru while Jaken lead Ah Un behind them.

" Rin." Sesshoumaru called the little pup's attention.

" Yes milord?" Sesshoumaru got in front of Rin and kneeled down so he was at her level.

" Do you know what that cresent moon mark means?" He asked. Rin shook her head. " Only my family has one." Rin started smiling

"Does that mean Rin can call you Otou-sama?" Sesshoumaru nodded. Rin's smile got bigger and she tackle hugged Sesshoumaru. " Otou-sama." She said happily with her tail wagging. The demon lord ruffled her hair affectionatly. Jaken however was shocked and his jaw dropped.

" I should teach you how to defend yourself, just incase When I'm not around."

" ok, Otou-sama." Sesshoumaru began teaching her to use an energy whip.

" Will your energy into flowing from your hand in the shape you wish." He instructed

" Yes otou-sama ." Said Rin, she swung her arm out trying to create a whip with her energy. But it didn't work no matter how many times she tried. " What is Rin doing wrong?"

"Perhaps you need a target..." Sesshoumaru thought aloud. " Jaken!"

" Yes milord?"

" Stay there. Rin try again." Rin did so and managed to cut Jaken's head off.

" Very good Rin." Said Sesshoumaru. He slashed Jaken's head and body, then grabbed Jaken's head and threw it the toad demon's body. It caught it's head but was knocked over. It put it's head back it's shoulders.

" Again Rin." And the process repeated for some time.

" That will be enough for now Rin. Go rest." Said Sesshoumaru.

" Yes (pant) Otou-sama." Rin got up and walked to a stream to drink. She saw a Human couple sitting on the other side of the stream. They had their arms around each other and were staring into space.

' I bet Sesshoumaru-sama would like a special friend like that, he seems so lonely sometimes." Rin Thought

She walked back to camp. Jaken was gone collecting edible plants. Sesshoumaru was the only one there.

" You are progressing much faster then I anticipated, Rin." Said Sesshoumaru. Rin blushed.

" Thank you Otou-sama." Said Rin. Jaken returned with the plants and made them into a soup.

At a Manor

Night had fallen and the Inuyasha-gumi needed a place to stay. Miroku had said his famous " I sense a dark presence over your manor" line to the local lord and got them a free place to stay for the night.

" I can't stand how you always lie to these lords about dark spirits. It's just dishonest." Said Sango. Miroku smiled.

" You weren't complaining at dinner." He said. Sango blushed, she had been very hungry.

" Let's get some sleep." Said Kagome. After Miroku preformed his "exoticism" everyone went to sleep.
