.:LAST TIME:.

'My parents would never believe that I am riding a dragon, going to a castle, and journeying with a lord.' Suddenly, her eyes got even wider. 'Oh no'

'My parents!'

Okies. Well, BACK TO THE STORY!

- Lost in a riddle that Saturday night, far away on the other side, he was caught in the middle of a desperate fight, and she couldn't find how to push through.-

…Meanwhile…

(Lets just say that Toki is Rin's mother and Sansui is her father) The once, quiet village was in a panic. All you could hear was, 'Rin! Rin where are you!' or, 'Rin! Come Back!' Toki was about to kill herself from the stress, but kept herself from doing so.

"Where can she be! She never been anywhere but the village before! And she could have been eaten by the goblins or ogres!" She was about to go on when Sansui stopped her.

"Its not going to help us if we worry about her. We just need to look for her and hope that she is okay." Sansui walked up ahead and went on the trail to the lake with the rest of the search party.

Toki followed her husband and walked to the lake. When they got there, they started again with the calling. Sansui walked around the edge of the forest, while the rest looked around the beach. Toki looked around the shore and gasped in surprise. She ran toward the broken water jugs and felt her eyes sting. She started to sob uncontrollably until she felt a pair of hands on her shoulders puller her into a hug.

"Don't give up. There is still hope."

He took her hand and paused when they heard a voice, "Hey! Foot prints lead into the black woods! I'd say that they were rushing to get away." Sansui and Toki both ran into the black woods in hope of finding their daughter.

They all ran into a clearing, following the footsteps, then stopped. What they saw made all of their blood run cold.

Right there, in all its glory, was a carcass. Laced with blood and flesh.

The only thing that anyone could think of at that moment was,

'Oh…no…'

…With Sesshoumaru + Co…

'We have been flying for well over three hours. I need to walk.' Rin thought. Sesshoumaru had been silent the whole way, obviously, and Jaken however, was the opposite.

Always complaining about how Rin was a human and didn't deserve to be in Sesshoumaru's presence. Rin was getting tired of his squawking and was irritated from the constant flying. So she decided to show that toad a piece of her mind.

"Toad! Why don't you do the world a favor and Shut the hell up! I don't smell repulsing and I am more worthy of being in Sesshoumaru's presence than you! So why don't you get your act together and quit being such a suck up!"

With that, she looked ahead, not noticing Jaken's surprised expression and Sesshoumaru's amused expression.

'Maybe it won't be so bad having her as a servant after all.'

...TWO HOURS LATER…

They arrived at the castle, must to Rin's relief. She gasped and looked at the castle. This place was HUGE man!

"If you think the outside is extraordinary, go inside." She heard Sesshoumaru say.

Rin walked inside of the castle, and to Sesshoumaru's word, she gasped and caught her breath.

It had pictures of dog demons and pictures of different dragon riders. One picture, however, caught her eye. It showed a picture of a female dragon rider with a baby boy in her arms. She wore white armor and a white fluffy pelt on her shoulder. And the best feature was that she had white hair just like Sesshoumaru.

"Is this your mother?"

"Yes, It is. She was the most respected female dragon rider there was."

Rin looked at Sesshoumaru for a moment and then back at the picture.

"Sleep, you must be exhausted." Sesshoumaru began to walk away with Rin following. Sesshoumaru brought her to an orange room. The walls were painted like the sun raised sky. It had a large bed with orange silk bed spread and pillows. It had a drapery around the bed to 'hide' who was sleeping in it. It had a wardrobe with orange and white armor. A balcony was shown through double doors at the far end of the room. Rin gasped at its beauty.

Sesshoumaru heard her gasp and raised a delicate brow. "Are you not pleased with the room? Because I could-"He was interrupted by Rin's quick response.

"No! It's wonderful! It's just so much bigger than my whole house!" Rin smiled and turned around to face Sesshoumaru. "I thank you very much. I am most grateful."

Sesshoumaru nodded in return. "I bid you goodnight then." He was surprised when he was suddenly embraced. Rin hugged him and kissed him on the cheek.

"Goodnight Sesshoumaru!" She blushed and walked into her room before closing the door.

'Did I really just kiss him?'

'Did she just kiss me? Hmm... She is a strange one at that, this may get interesting.'
