Ch 5: Suprise attack

A silver haired yokai sat across from a steel iron stove waiting while fathers old friend steamed and cooled his sword. "totosai, how much longer will this take." sesshomaru questioned the old man.

"only about a day or two. Why? do you have any plans?" he curiously asked.

"It is none of your consern" sesshomaru plainly stated then stood up and walked out of the hut. He stood out on the open plane while the cool night breez blew his hair aside. What he came here for was for the old man to meand his tensaiga. Even though he didn't use it, he still thought it should be perfectly sharp. It was hs fathers gift after all. That's the thing he couldn't get. His father gave his little brother the tetsaiga. The most powerful sword of his, and yet he gave him the useless tesaiga. A healing sword, why in the seven hells would he need a to heal anyone, much less aningen. Ningen, the thought of them made him sick, such weak and discusting. They were lower than any animal.

He couldn't bear the scent of them much yet touch them. So why? Why did his father pass upon him the verry sword in which to save the discusting beings.

There is someone you will learn to protect.

He brushed away that memory. Thus, he did not know and he hated not knowing. so he decided to stop thinking about it. Sesshomaru gracefully walked across the feild under the moonlit sky to go over more of his untouchable land.

Stopping in her tracks, Kagome could not beleive what she saw. Right before her very eyes was a vast pond and right beside it was a grand waterfall. steam filled the air while pebbles and stones surounded it like its own secluded area. She was lost for words. Once her shock calmed down she stripped her clothes and folded them into a neat pile.

She nelt down into the spring and sighed. "Wow, this water is so clean, not to mention relaxing..." She shut her eyes enjoying the heat. She quickly snapped them back open when she heard a soft cry. "Hm? what was that?" she stood up and looked behind some of the stones. She didn't see anything but then she heard the strange noise again. she looked behind her this time and spotted the source.

Beside a large stone was a small girl veiwing a large gash on her knee. "Oh my gosh, are you alright? what happened?" Kagome bent down next to the girl. The girl lifted her head up fearful at first, but then her eyes relaxed. "oh, arnt you me'lady who travles with Sesshomaru-sama's brother?"

"Yes, but that doesn't matter right now! I have to put something on those cuts!" she hurried to the edge and took out her disinfectant and went back over to the girl. "don't worry, this might sting a little." She sprayed the stuff on her knees and arms.

"Ouch" rin hissed to herself. Kagome then took a cloth and began dabbing the girls face thoughtfully. "umm Ka..gome? isn't that your name?" Rin spoke up when kagome was done dabbing at her face. Kagome smiled.

"Uh-huh, and your name is Rin right?" Rin nodded her head pleased that she knew her name. Kagome laughed at the little girls antics and took out her shampoo. "Would you like me to wash your hair?"

"Oh yes!." Rin nodded joyfully and turned her back toward kagome. Kagome started to lather her hair up and then asked .

" How did you get all cut up anyway?" she tried to hide the worry in her voice when rin frowned.

"Sesshomaru-sama told Rin not to go outside but Rin didn't listen!" she scowled at herself. Kagome sat shocked, then turned the the girl around to look at her." You mean...Sesshomaru did this to you!" 'How could he do such a thing to a little girl! I know he hates humans but...A little girl! How sick can he be! Not just killing her fast without pain but...torturing her untill she ran away!' tears welled up in her eyes now. Rin stared at her shocked. " Ofcourse Sesshomaru didn't do this to Rin! sesshomaru-sama has never hurt rin! sesshomaru even bought rin back to life after she died!" Kagome sighed releived that what she thought was wrong. She started to rinse rin's hair out, still unsure. "Then...how DID you get hurt?" rin sighed.

"before I came here, this spring, I tripped over a bunch of branches over there." She reached her hand up out of the water and pointed in the direction. Kagome looked. That answer made her even more uneasy, mabey she was trying to cover up for him because he told her if she told anyone he'd surely kill her. Kagome looked at the girl with pity. "Are you sure? you can tell me the truth you know." She held up the girls scarred chin. A scowl appeared on Rin's face.

"Ofcourse I'm sure!" She snapped Kagome's hand from her face. "Sesshomaru is NOT a bad PERSO-" Her words got cut off when when a water serpant suddenly apeared out of the water.

HAHAHA! CLIFF HANGER! my gosh Kagome jumpes to conclutions too much!

REVEIW!
