We have a new member of our family. A pure blood. A very quite baby by the name of Sessho-Maru. Like dad he has raspberry stripes on his face and silver hair. My step-mother let me hold the baby. He tried to bite me but it's alright. He can't help it. He's too young to know better.

Sesshy seems to be getting a little nicer. He doesn't bite as much. Unless it's someone new. Dad's still acting a little screwy checking new servants over before hiring them saying they could be assassins. I say Feh. He hasn't spent more then ten minutes with Sesshy yet. The weird thing is Sesshy never cries. Or smiles for that matter. He just sits and watches.

Konichiwa! Dad is such a jerk. He looked at my diary and told me to cross out the entry when I told about how I turn human. He says "If an enemy gets hold of this they'll know when to come kill you" So what. I can fight for myself.
I heard mom telling Sesshy a story. About a koi who felt lonely… it was strange. And a different one about a princess and a castle on the moon. They make no sense to me…
And I heard some of dad's council making fun of me! Calling me a filthy half-breed. I felt my blood go hot. I felt so angry! If these are the kinds of friends dad has no wonder he's so paranoid.
A note and ripped out pages after this entry.

Sessho-Maru is really good. I'm still panting. We were sparring. For only being five he's an excellent strategist… Oh and I heard dad talking about someone. The name was Ozayoi… or Izayoi… I'm not quite sure…
Sessho-Maru's eyes are so cold. I can feel a chill emanating from him. Not like he's evil or anything. Just empty… emotionless. I'm the only one he talks to. Neither mom nor dad listen if he talks, only me. But they have been busy. Organizing soldiers and stuff…
I'm writing in a little grove behind the house. It's getting dark but I love watching the stars as I write… Oh here comes Sesshy…
