THANX A BUNCH TO MY REVIEWERS! especially to korashatara J. Valentine Thanx alot actually, I really appreciated it! You got me going! Oh, and I switched serveral POV, (now edited) so only twice, and hopefully you could tell who it was..

well, here goes my chapter...

The only Saquid you can eat with a fpoon... oops, sorry 'bout that folks, just ignore this...

ENJOY.

For three and a half days the girl worked almost nonstop on the demon lords blade. She thrust it into a scorching fire and then doused it into a barel of water all the while pounding it with her hammer. Katana wiped sweat from he brow as she shruck the red blade mending the crack.

"Finally. Now to wait to the toad man and his doggie master." she muttered to herself. Katana sighed, this demon would have, no, has no respect for someone like her. As soon as she had cleaned the blade she dressed herself in dark blue, worn robes, tucked her own sword in her belt and did her hair up into a loose ponytail and went out side to wait for the demons. A clear blue sky greeted her as she came out from her stuffy home, and the breeze lifted her spirit. Today couldn't be too bad.

"Katana! Kattie!" a little voice could be heard through the trees, "Where are you?" The older girl sighed, so much for peace and quiet.

"I'm over here Hikoru," she said with weariness. "Come out so I can see you." A little girl with short-cut brown hair ran stumbling into the clearing.

"Katana,-" little Hikoru started but Katana interrupted her.

"I thought your father said you weren't aloud to see me any more, could it be that you snuck out?" She said in mock surprise.

"Err... well..." Hikoru shuffled her feet looking at the ground as though it was the most fascinating piece of rock she had ever seen.

"Hikoru, you should go home, I will be busy."

"But kattie..." Hikoru looked up at her with puppy-dog eyes.

It took all her will not to give in. "Go back alright? I'll see you tomorrow, don't worry." Hikoru retreated sadly back sadly back down the path.

Hmm, Lord Sesshomaru sure tollerated that human. It is unlike him to be so forgiving... The toad sighed, his master was completely unpredictable these days, first Rin and now this human to fix the Toukijin.

Sesshomaru stood upon the edge of a clearing deep inside a fiercly overgrown forest. There might have been a track or road there of some kind, but not anymore. Demons had inhabited these lands, tearing apart villages and eating or destroying the pittifull humans that were to foolish to move on. It was quite amazing that a small village had escaped the notice of the larger demons, and still have a surplus of food. While these lesser demons were set on terrorising humans, my lord was not. He was discusted at everything the humans did, but only killed them if they got in his way. Why waste his time?

"Jaken, we're leaving." he said to me almost coldly. As always I followed right behind his heels.

As we neared the clearing I had seen a few night's before, the sun had just begun to set. My lord walked soundlessly as usuall, he is so handsome! The way his hair swished from side to side, and a perfect complexion...

"Ah! Lord Sesshomaru!" Katana greeted from her waiting postition as he emerged from the trees.

The lord just ignored her greeting and said, "Is my sword ready?"

She nodded, "Yes, I hope I have done a satisfactory job." standing up stifly she presented the gleaming blade to him. Sesshomaru picked the sword up from her hands and examined it with a practiced eye. Katana bowed low to Jaken's happiness. Once he had seen it was fixed to his liking, he proceded to walk out of the clearing and Katana had moved to make her way to the hut. Tomorrow she would go to the village, tonight...she was too tired.

Sesshomaru had been walking for several hours when he reached the forest Rin had been instructed to stay in. He caught her scent mixed with flowers of every kind. He grimanced inwardly, the scent of the flowers was so strong. His nose would be running tonight. He followed the scent into a field of wildflowers. The little girl stood up to examine her bochet of flowers when she caught sight of him.

Rin laughed and smiled, yelling and waving her hand. "Welcome back Lord Sesshomaru!"

The fire crackled and crickets cirped as Rin toasted her mushrooms by the fire. She watched them carefully making sure then didn't burn. Once then had turned a delightfull golden colour, she pulled the sticks away from the fire and handed one to Jaken. Rin giggled as he tried to eat them, only suceeding in burning his mouth. Jaken was running around the fire in panic when Sesshomaru noticed how torn and filthy her kimono had become. He spoke;

"Rin, you are in need of a new Kimono. We will go to town tomorrow to get you a new one."

Rin stopped laughing, "Hmm? Oh- yes, yes my Lord. Thank you."

THUD

Jaken finaly tripped over a rock.

Oh, yea... I don't think Jaken is in love with sesshomaru by the way... but he does say that sesshomaru is handsome in the shows, sooo OK...

and I really am sorry about not updating sooner... the next chapter should come much, much sooner.

please review!
