"Please don't, Sesshomaru-sama," Rin begged placing herself between her foster father and her lover. Tears fell down her cheeks as she spoke the words that made his blood turn to ice, "I love him."

"Rin, how can you love something so hideously deformed?" His eyes traveled back and forth between his daughter and her… partner. "Why have you disgraced yourself with… him?"

"He's not deformed and I haven't disgraced myself." Rin turned and smiled as her companion left the bed, and slipped into his hakama. "He's beautiful." She turned back to see her father pulling Toukijin from its scabbard, "And if you hurt him I'll never speak to you again!"

"Rin, you are only eighteen. You do not know what you are saying." Sesshomaru answered, moving around the girl. "I will kill him and we will forget this ever happened."

"Go ahead and try," Inuyasha answered unsheathing his sword. "And just who are you calling deformed?"
