Still my plot, style, and word choice. Still Rumiko Takahashi's everything else. Oh, and I forgot to mention. I've never heard Rin speak in the 3rd person on the show, and I'm not far enough in the manga to have met her yet. I picked that up reading fanfic, so I would like to thank all the authors out there who wrote about Rin and dear Sesshoumaru. Also, I didn't point out first chapter. I'm very found of the whole Inuyasha group, Sesshoumaru, and his little following. But, I would like to point out (since it probably won't come up in the story) that Sesshoumaru is so hot, and Inuyasha's little doggie ears are just too cute. Oh, and I love the lecherous monk.

Oh my goodness! I forgot another note! Gah! Forgive me; this is my first fanfic, and the first story I've ever posted. I'm not used to having to make sure the reader knows what I'm talking about. When you see words in italics, it is Sesshoumaru's thoughts.

Chapter 2- Questions

Previously….

"SIT!" AhUn walked over the campfire and the group and made themselves (Itself? Himself?) comfortable. Rin sat between Kagome and Sango by the fire while Jaken sulked in a corner, muttering about stupid humans and irritable dragon demons. Sitting nearby, but far enough to be separated from the group was Lord Sesshoumaru, leaning against the wall looking pensive and introverted.

After a slightly awkward silence…

"So… Rin. Why do you follow Sesshoumaru around?" Kagome asked, to break the silence.

"Rin likes Lord Sesshoumaru and Master Jaken and AhUn." Kagome's eyes went wide.

"Yes, but it's dangerous, isn't it? Traveling around with demons… especially a demon like Sesshoumaru."

"Lord Sesshoumaru protects Rin."

"Oh." Kagome, not being able to think of a response, went silent. No one spoke for a few seconds, before-

"Rin is bored."

"Ok," chirped Sango helpfully, "why don't we play a game?"

"Ok! What should we play?"

"What's you're favorite game?" asked the monk.

"Umm… Rin doesn't know many games."

The group exchanged glances, trying to think of a game a young girl would like. Miroku could think of many games, but none that would be appropriate for a young girl. Kagome could think of many games, but none that would work without props (or without batteries). Sango could think of many, but none that could be played in a small cave.

"I know!" cried Shippo, "We can play with my top!" Shippo let his go, it spun fast, the colors whirling. And then it kept spinning… and spinning… and slowly lost speed until it stopped. Rin looked up sadly at the young kitsune.

"Rin is still bored."

If this keeps up, Rin will start acting up.

"Well, we could just, talk." Offered Sango.

"Ok! What should we talk about?" Asked Kagome, eager for an end to the silences.

"Well, we could talk about…" Sango started, suddenly out of suggestions. More silence. Inuyasha squirmed.

Hmph. Impatient half-breed.

"Rin knows! Lets take turns asking questions! We can go around the circle, starting with Inuyasha since he looks grouchy and it might put him in a better mood! And you can ask any question of who ever you want and they have to answer, unless they really don't feel comfortable answering, and then you can give them a different question to ask! Ok?" Everyone agreed, and Inuyasha looked around the group for a victim.

"Hey Sango, why do you like Miroku so much when he such a lecher?" Sango blushed.

"Umm… well, he's an ok guy when he's not being a lecher."

"Ok! Now Shippo's turn!"

"Inuyasha? Why are you always such a grouch all the time?"

"Why you! Come 'ere ya little runt!" Inuyasha started to chase the little kitsune around the fire.

"Settle down, you too, it's Miroku's turn." Said Sango.

"Tell that to Inuyasha" cried Shippo.

"Inuyasha! Sit boy!" And Inuyasha did a face plant.

"Ok, my turn. Hmm…" Miroku looked around the group, his eyes falling on Rin. He suddenly remembered there was a very important question he forgot to ask her. "Rin."

"Ok! What's the question?" Miroku came up to Rin and knelt beside her, looking into her eyes, his own eyes expressing deep sincerity.

"Rin, when you are older, would you consider…" Miroku heard a soft, very ominous growling coming from Sesshoumaru's direction. He looked up to see very sharp, flashing amber eyes. "…Would you consider writing us a letter to let us know how you are doing, and update us on your adventures? Traveling around with demons you're bound to have some interesting stories to tell…hehe..."

"Ok! Now Kagome's turn"

"Ok…. Rin. What do you do for fun? It must be difficult trying to amuse yourself traveling with Sesshoumaru and Jaken."

"Well, sometimes I pick flowers, or catch fish, or talk to Jaken, or play with AhUn, or look for fruits and nuts to eat."

"Oh. Ok then. Now it's you're turn. Who are you going to ask?"

"Well…." Started Rin, looking conflicted. She seem to have made a decision, and got up. She walked over to her lord and looked up at him. "Milord? Can Rin ask Lord Sesshoumaru a question?" Sesshoumaru looked at her intently.

What is she up to?

"Very well."

Gasp! Rin can ask him ANY question! A little girl like that? What will she ask? How will Lord Sesshoumaru react? Ah, so much fun to write this!
