Chatpter Five: Reassurance?

They had been traveling for two days now and had grown quite weary.

Sesshomaru had noticed this and told the group to stop and rest.

Jaken was ordered to take Rin to the nearest stream and wash up when suddenly Lily interuppted his order.

" No you cannot send a man to help a little girl wash! I will do it!" And she grabbed Rin's arm towing her to the stream before anyone could stop her.

Earning a reproachful look from Rin as Lily hurried her on.

They had found water within five minutes for Lily had heard running water as soon as they left the camp.

Lily tore her clothes of the second they got there, Rin wrinkled her nose at this . A few minytes later they were both in the water.

Lily looked at the young girl staring at the rocks beneath the waters surface.

Suddenly she sighed.

Rin looked at her with innocent eyes then qiuckly adverted them.

" Rin I am not here to steal Sesshomaru away from you.I really am not. I hope that you can believe me and that one day we can be friends.I promise that you will never be forgotten." Lily told the young girl while leaning her head on a rock behind her.

Rin had small tears in the corner of her eyes but brushed them away. " Rin is sorry Lily. She didnt mean to be mean but Sesshomaru is the only person who has treated Rin well since her parents died. Rin will stop acting like that now." She finished putting her head down.

" Dont worry Rin you were only protecting the only thing you ever lovedthat isnt a crime." She said to the young girl.

There was some noise in the bushes and then Jakens voice was heard." Girls Lord Sesshomaru sent me to tell you dinner is ready."

There was some more movement and suddenly they heard Jaken scream."AHHHHHHHH damn thorns." and with that the trudging had disappeared.

They got out of the water and got dressed and started walking until lily felt small arms around her waist.

She looked down at the young girl and smiled as she rubbed her head.

Rin stiffened immediatly and she let go.

" whats wrong Rin?" she began but then she sensed it something was coming something big.

They turned around and to their surprise it was only Sesshomaru that walked out of the foliage.

Yet he was the same as he always was cold faced and in his human form. This greatly confused Lily but Rin knew better.

Rin looked up and saw a confused look plastered on the older girls face.

She knew that her lord would not tell Lily about this so she reached up and tugged on Lily's sleeve.

" Later Rin would explain if you would like,

" She told her with innocent eyes, " or would you rather have m'lord tell you?" Rin added knowing that the woman would want to talk to Sesshomaru face to face.

Lily looked at Sesshomaru and nodded her head." Yea I think I'll talk to him first ok." Rin smiled and ran towards

Sesshomaru with a hug that would not be returned.
