She was tiny and perfect. She had my black hair and her fathers golden eyes. Her ears pointed slightly upward showing signs that she would one day have her fathers ears.
It was a Youkai tradition. We were to hold a celebration next month for the birth of our daughter. There we had the naming ceremony. Until then the child would be without a name.
I called her little pet names like Girly or Honeybabe.
Sesshourmaru seemed to find this admusing. He didn't really call her anything. In fact he like to pretend that he didn't think much of her at all. He didn't want to ruin his bad boy image I guess.
But when the nursery is empty I sometimes find him staring into the cradle and rocking her gently.
Once as I came closer I could hear a purring hum as he rocked her.
I wrapped my arms around him and pressed my ear to his back and listened to him.
__________________________________________
THE PARTY
This would also be the day that I am presented to the Youkai nobles. I was afraid that me being human would be a disgrace to him.
Sesshourmaru assured me that since I was a powerful Miko that it was different. Combining a powerful demon and a powerful miko would be an unstoppable force.
I dressed in a pristine white kimono the obi was blood red littered with white petals. I placed around my neck the now completed Shikon Jewel. This would command respect. and around my head I place the crown Sesshourmaru left for me. the silver band dipped down and came to a point between my brows There set was a cut sapphire shaped into a cresent moon. It was the mark of Sesshourmarus rule in the western lands.
Sesshouramaru opened the door to my rooms.
"I am ready to present you and the child."
"I'm coming."
I followed him to the nursery and I lifted our daughter out of her cradle. Some one had dressed her in a silky white christening gown. I was supposed to do that before we were presented. I smiled when I realized that with every one so busy with the feast only Sesshourmaru would have time to dress her.
"We are going to be late my mate if we linger too much longer."
"We're ready." And I'll try my best not to make you look like a fool. I promise.
I carried her into the Hall with my head held high. I knew how regal I looked in my white gown and I set my face so that my emotions were masked. I wanted to show them all that I, Like Sesshourmaru, was the ruler here. I was queen and this was our heir. We walked to the thrones and set between them was a white basinet. I gently laid her down and took my seat.
Sesshourmaru stood and I stood with him.
"Lords and Ladies. This is my Mate. Kagome. She is now and forever my queen and yours."
We took again our seats.
One by one the minor lords and ladies came to bow before the Lord and the new queen. I only let my composure slip when Keade, Sango, and Miroku came and bowed.
"I'm so glad to see you friends. I will have to seek you out later."
"It is good to see you have done well Lady Kagome."
"Its weird being surrounded by this many demons and not having to kill any of them." Sango said quietly.
As they left to make room for the next in line I turned to Sesshourmaru.
"Thank you for inviting my friends."
"Inuyasha was not with them."
"you invited him as well"
"He should be here. It is a family affair. It will be a shame on the family that he would not be here for the naming of his neice."
I could tell, if no one else could, that he was angry. His cool eyes searching for the missing hanyou.
Dinner was served and people began to mill about. I was allowed to leave my chair but I stayed close incase my daughter should need me.
The stars were coming out as the sun set. It was nearing time for the naming. I could see Sesshourmaru was still looking for Inuyasha and I was worried what it would me for him not to be here.
I could hear a youkai behind me whisper. "The half brother hanyou is not here yet."
"but he is the only other reletive living!"
"I know. Could he hate his brother so much as that?!"
"I hope he is here in time for the naming. He wouldn't really let a curse come over the child would he? His own neice?"
"With out him here to speak the blessing. . . then the child will be dead before the year is through."
DEAD!
the work rang in my ears. No this . . . this cant be true.
I forgot my dignity and ran to Sesshourmaru. He dismissed the demon lords He was talking to.
"Sesshourmaru. Tell me what will happen if Inuyasha does not come."
"You have heard then."
"Yes. Why. . . How. . . I need to know."
"There is a curse upon all demons. no one knows how it came to be. Some say our ansestors cast the spell themselves to keep family ties strong. Unless Inuyasha comes to say the words of blessing before the moon sets tonight. Our daughter will live a cursed life. Many so cursed will not live past a year of life. That is why we cannot name her until the blessing. we cannot give names to the dead, and she is considered the dead until she is blessed."
"Why can't you say the blessing?"
"She is our daughter so It would seem more of an obligation for us to say the words of blessing. No, the words must begiven of their own free will. A family member must love the family enough to save a new child. That is the encouragement to keep family ties strong. My brother and I messed that up before we were old enough to understand the importance of family."
I sat on my throne and prayed that Inuyasha would soon be here.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The guest began to get nervous and restless as the night wore through.
the moon had already reached its peak and was beginning to lower in the sky.
'Inuyasha wouldn't do this to me. He couldn't. Could he?'
The moon was getting low and I knew that in another fifteen minutes it would be too late.
"Wait! I'm here!"
the crowd was parting as the hanyou was running through the hall.
"I'm Sorry I was late. I had somethings I needed to sort out first."
"Inuyasha! I'm so glad your here. Come you must bless the baby."
"Kagome. I'm sorry I worried you."
"No time! Just do it!"
He knelt before the cradle.
"Blessings be upon this daughter of our house.
May she live to uphold the family honor.
May all who come before and after,
know that she is protected by her family.
and all know that when the time comes,
She too will protect all we hold dear.
Blessings be upon this daughter of our house.
Honor to the family because she lives.
pride to the family for she will grow in power.
Pride to this daughter of our house.
Blessings to the family line."
Sesshourmaru stood and took her in his arms. He held her so that her face was out to face the mass of people.
"This is my Daughter. Her name. . .
Is Rin"
