Sesshoumaru

A tall figure walked along an old dirt path, deep within a large forest. His golden eyes where fixed so that they looked straight forward and showed no emotion. If any one where to get a glance at him, they would see that of a high status pure bred demon. A demon that would not show mercy easily to any one that crossed his path in a bad way. This demon was known as Sesshoumaru, son of the late Lord of the Western lands.

"Sesshoumaru-sama!" Cried a squeaky voice from behind him. The owner of that voice was an annoying little green toad that was once a general of a toad army. His name was Jaken. He was short, green, and had the staff of two heads. That is pretty much all that there is to say about him.

Sesshoumaru did not reply to the little toad's calls. He just stopped and looked to where he now stood, out of breath. By the look on the ugly toad's face, he had been running for a long time, at a fast paste. After a moment though, he had finally caught his breath…a bit.

"My lord, the lady to the demonic clan wishes to have a word with you. Three weeks from today." He managed to blurt out with a signal breath, still trying to catch his breath. Sesshoumaru nodded his head in acknowledgment to what Jaken had just reported to him. It puzzled him a bit as to why the leader of the Demonic Clan wished to discuss with him. Although only for second then continued to walk ahead with Jaken following behind him closely.

As Sesshoumaru walked along the old dirt path once again he picked up a very strange scent from the blowing wind. The scent was a mix of white roses, pine, and how the earth smelled after a thunder storm. What was strange about the scent was that it smelt human for a second, but then changed to a scent of pure demon. With no trance of human in it what so ever. The lord of the western lands thought this is was strange, but it did not concern him in any manner so he ignored the scent all together as he walked.

Jaken had also picked up the scent and found it claming and pleasant to sniff in. He looked up to his lord wondering if he would have the same reaction to the scent as he did. But of course his face still had an emotionless mask on like always. Jaken sometimes wished that his lord would show some sort of emotion except annoyance toward him. He really wished that Lord Sesshoumaru wouldn't hit him so much or use him as a test subject.

The two continued on not really going anywhere of importance but to try and keep unwanted visitors in Lord Shesshoumaru's land. If any unwanted visitors did, they would soon end up on the ground, badly beaten.

Unaware to either of them though, the owner of the scent would run into to them soon enough.

Deep within the forest

Far a way from where Lord Sesshomaru was, there was a fight going on between a whole lot of moths and one female demon. There were well over fifty moths ready to attack at any second. The moths were all a good three feet in length and each had sharp teeth.

The moths rushed forward toward the female demon with force, baring their teeth. The demon went head on with the moths, easily destroying them with her claws. After a few moments the remands of the moths fell to the ground around her as she landed. The female's demon looked around to see if there where any more moths and could not see any. Although she did end up senescing a stronger presence nearby.

She quickly jumped backwards to avoid the axe that was hurdling down toward her. Her long light blue hair although was cut a few inches, due to the axe hitting it instead of any other part of her body. Her gaze soon enough found the attacker, with the over sized axe. She guessed that the man was the one who controlled all the moths that started to attack the wolves earlier before she came.

She kept on avoiding the moth demon leader as much as she could. The new demon was quit fast, and by the looks of it he had a really heavy axe. He had short dingy grey hair, and dull brown eyes that were full of determination to destroy the female demon. This was because she killed almost all of his precious army of moths. So he was just returning the favour by trying to kill her.

The two demons kept on fighting for few minutes, until the female demon saw an opening in the other's defensives and attacked. The moth demon leader tried to block her attack with his axe but she ending up cutting his weapon in half with her claws. The female also ended up creating a wound on his chest. He stepped back away from her and looked down to his new wound. Anger soon enough fired up in his eyes as he glared at the girl with pure hate.

"Now you are going to get it bitch." He snarled out to her. His form started to change in front of the female demon. After a second there floated a giant dark grey demon moth. He let out a low growl as he glared down at the light blue hair women in front of him.

He then went straight for her, baring his teeth like his moth warriors before him. Although in a spilt second he was lying on the ground…dead. Still though, he was able to get in one bite. Injecting some of his poison into her. She noticed the tooth in her arm though and pulled the tooth out of her arm.

The female demon was about to turn to leave when three foxes pounced on her. She ended up on the ground while the foxes were on top of her licking her face. She let out a laugh as she was attacked by kisses from the foxes.

"Hey! Come on guys! Stop it!" She managed to say finally through her laughing. The foxes got off her when two figures came into view. They helped up the female demon with large smiles on their faces.

"Thank you so much!" The first one said with a large smile. She had fiery red hair that went to her shoulders, and aqua blue eyes that where full of happiness. She was wearing a simple dark green kimono that was covered with leaves. The other girl had dark auburn hair and honey brown eyes wearing the same style cloths as the others. Both of them though had pointed ears. They were fox demons.

"What is your name anyway?" The second one asked with curious eyes.

"Oh, Rin's name is Rin." She replied with a bright smile and happy sky blue eyes. Her light blue hair shone in the bright sun light as it came up to the noon position.

After a few more minutes of thank yous from the two female fox demons and their companions Rin took off. As the female walked around she took a sniff and looked down at herself. Her cloths were torn a bit and she was covered in dirt. Oh dear it looks like Rin has to clean herself up a bit. She thought to herself and closed her eyes, concentrating on finding a river. She was able to hear one not to far off, so she reopened her eyes and headed toward it.

She found the river and bent down to start washing her hands and face. After a few moments she looked down at her reflection, satisfied with her appearance she got up and turned around but stopped once she did. In front of her was a large ogre like demon with piercing black eyes.

"I am glad to have found you young Mistress." The ogre said in a low gruff voice to Rin. She was a bit shocked to find him in front of her. She had not heard him approach her at all while she was washing up. Although she was more curious as to what the demon wanted with her.

"What is it that you want from Rin?" She asked in a clam, yet serious voice. Her normal happy face was expression free at this moment.

"Straight down to business I see. Oh right then I shall get to the point fast and not waste any more of your time." The ogre started off with a slight gleam in his eyes. Rin noticed that instantly and was starting to feel uneasy about this demon. Plus his sent was very unpleasant, almost like the dead, and trash. "I wish for your…assistance to deal with certain problems on my land. I heard that you are quit the strong fighter and would be honored if you and I became associates...partners even. My master would also be very pleased to me you after ward." He fished with a sly grin, trying to look trusting.

"In other words, you are asking Rin to join you in an uprising of some sort." She replied flatly to the disgusting ogre with a plan face. His expression on the other hand had changed from trusting to shock. His lips though turned up into a grin right after though.

"Yes that is what I mean, but my way of saying it is so much nicer. So will you join me then? Or shall I have to per sway you to join me?" He looked to Rin with a dangerous look in his eyes. A look saying join-me-or-else-I'll-hurt-you.

"Rin prefers not to join your idiotic up rise." Rin replied with a plan expression. If there was one thing she hated more then idiots were idiots who hid behind stronger demons. This one seemed to be the mayor of idiots. Although unknown to her, the ogre was much stronger then he looked. Plus the poison that the giant moth gave her earlier was still not out of her systems. So she was a bit on the weak side.

"You will soon regret to have ever insulted the Great Lord Ogre!" He yelled out and lunged at Rin with great force. She was not expecting the sudden out burst from him, so she ended up being pushed to the ground with him on top. That was the starting point for the battle between the two.

The ogre started to punch the pinned down Demon with his fist. He got in a few punches before she finally got back her senses and rolled out of the way. So his fist ended up hitting the ground hard, making a hole. Rin got up as quickly as she could and got in a quick defense position. The 'Ogre Lord' ran right to Rin and threw another punch at her. She was able to doge the one as well and get in a few kicks and punches herself.

After a few moments into the fight though Rin stopped. She started to feel strange, like her life energy was slowly being taken away from her. Before she knew what happened, the ogre started to attack her like nuts. After a couples of minutes, which seemed like eons to her, she fell to the ground unconscious. Her whole body was full of cuts and soon to be buries, if she lived that long. Her kimono was covered in blood as was her face. Although one could not see her face as her hair was covering it.

The ogre looked down to the girl with a sly grin on his face. Sure his master told him to get the girl but he never said anything about not having some fun. In fact, she could use one more punch. That should kill her off then I'll just tell Lord Naraku that it was an accident. He thought to himself and let out a chuckle of victory.

Sesshoumaru

As the lord of the western lands traveled down the path he caught another scent. One that was vial as it was every other time he picked it up. Without warning he rushed over to where the scent was located, leaving Jaken in a cloud of gust.

"Milord! Wait up for me!" The little green toad cried out running after his lord as fast as he could managed. Jaken should have been used to this by now. Lord Sesshoumaru always took off like this when something came up. Especially the vial villain known as Naraku. The despicable Demon that was very strong, this was only because he had so many Shards of the Shikon no Tama. Jaken soon enough redirected his attention back to catching up with the lord of the Western lands in case he needed his assistance.

So back to Sesshoumaru, within minutes he was able to get the site where the scent of Naraku was. Although all he found was a demon ogre standing over something ready to eat it. He did not care for what was under the stupid creature. Before it even caught his scent, Sesshoumaru had killed it with his poison whip.

He was about to leave when he caught a very familiar scent. He looked over to the figure that was once under the vial ogre before he killed it. It looked to be a young woman with long chestnut brown hair covering her face and back. The scent of blood was all over her and it was clear that she was dead. He bent down and pushed the girl's hair to confirm his suspicion.

His eyes widen a bit when the girls face came into view. Although he soon enough had his normal expression on his face and stood up. Jaken was close behind him and would soon enough catch up, so he would finish up here and be gone. He drew out tensaga from its sheath and turn his gaze to the girl. There was the familiar pulse from the sword and with a quick strike and a flash his job was complete.

He started to walk away only this time had an unfamiliar gleam in his eyes for a mere second. It was one of satisfaction. Rin. Was the only thought that came to him as he kept on walking ahead into the woods.
