Chapter 2

My name is Rin!

Kagome sighed heavily and placed a cool compress on the young ones head. Yesterday she had saved this poor little girl from the jaws of death. Kagome groaned irritably; she promised herself she would never go near humans! She made a vow the very day they banished her for their society and left her to dwell in the never ending pit of misery for all time. Never to interact with one, to never let herself be seen. But out of nowhere this girl appears and changes all that, why couldn't she just have stop herself? Why couldn't she let the kid die at the hands of that demon? Why did it enrage her so? Kagome growled as her head started to throb, all these unanswered questions buzzing around in her head were giving her a headache. Kagome sighed again and looked at the child that was asleep on her makeshift bedding. The child had a content smiled on her face as ripped, torn and burned covers surrounded her body. Kagome smiled despite herself, the child was adorable, so innocent looking. She remembered when she was that young, when she still walked among the humans as an equal. Kagome looked at her massive paws covered in mud. Before she was turned into this giant dog she was once apart of that life…a miko …helping to protect the villagers in Kriko, from the vile demons that overwhelmed this era. But her true duty was to the children that lived there, they were more important then any jewels or gems, to Kagome they were her very life. They trusted her, they believed in her they were her family…and now...they were taken brutally from her.

Kagome inhaled deeply holding back the tears as she left for the hot springs chamber at the far left of the mansion. The demon's blood and horrible stench clouded her nose and her senses. It was truly an over powering stink. She had been so worried about the child that she had completely forgotten to rid herself of the toxic smell. The hot springs…well, you couldn't really call it hot springs anymore; it was more like a cold springs that was now just a regular pond. Kagome slowly made her way into the chilly water of the cold spring; Goosebumps crawled over her flesh and down her spine. Taking a deep breath Kagome dived into the shimmering crystal-clear water. Her fur flowed around her as she swam through the liquid. With three effortless strokes of her powerful hind legs Kagome breached, sending hundreds of thousands of beads of water scattering around her. Patches of dirt and grime detached itself from her fur leaving pockets of white fur sticking out from the armor of filth. Diving again, Kagome went deeper into the spring; twisting, twirling and manipulating through the water, to spectators observing the site, Kagome looked like a fish. Lancing and gliding through water with ease. With one final thrust of her legs Kagome erupted out of the gleaming water. Droplets of the unclouded liquid flew in all directions as Kagome pulled herself out of the bitter water and onto the wooden floor of the mansion. The disgusting filth that had plagued her, shed itself from her dripping wet fur and onto the floor. Kagome's fur was now an exquisite pearl white, with raven black paws as well as a black tip on the very end of her tail. The black paw mark in the center of her forehead was now distinctly visible. With her fur flat on her body it was very evident that she was poorly nourished. Her ribs were noticeable under the thick white mane. Beads of water hung from her fur as she walked back out to where the child was…

Big brown eyes fluttered open as the young girl rose from the covers. She held her throbbing head in one hand as the other supported herself to keep her up right.

'Where am I?...How did I get here? The last thing Rin remembers is that huge snake attaching Rin.' The little girl named Rin jumped to her but fell back down in agony when the wound on her side started to throb in pain. Looking farcically around the room, Rin tried to find some type of clue to discover where she was.

'That's right that dog saved Rin…that dog…'

Gingerly Rin touched her side gently only to hiss in annoyance was the pain shot up her spine. To her surprise her wound was already taken care of. A nice white piece of fabric was coiled around her stomach covering the horrible gash she had received while trying to flee from the demon.

'Did that dog bandage Rin's cut?' Rin tore here eyes way from her wound and looked around. She was sitting on a pile of blankets some were burned slightly as well as some pillows that had lost some of their stuffing. Looking around the room she noticed that she was in some type of stronghold. A fortress maybe? Pushing her reluctant body to stand up Rin cautiously scanned for any type of treat. Not finding any Rin sat back down again massaging the sore wound on her side gently.

'I wonder what the dog's name is? Rin will have to ask…'

A wave of sorrow washed over her. What if the dog had left her for dead? Or was planning to eat her later as a snack! Foot steps in the distance brought her out of her musings. Rin snapped her head in the direction of were the noise was coming from. The sound of feet hitting the cold damp floor echoed off the walls and into her ears as two glowing chestnut brown eyes pierced through the darkness. Fear struck Rin like lightning as she backed up against the wall. Fear and panic tingled down her spine as terror filled her heart. Another demon was trying to kill her! Snapping her eyes shut she covered her face and waited for the killing blow to come…

"It's okay little one…I won't hurt you…" Replied a voice that sounded very close to were she was.

Cracking open one eye she turned to face the direction of which the noise was coming from. Rin gasped, a beautiful white dog stood in front of her only a few feet away. It was huge! The biggest dog she had ever seen! Compared to her height, Rin only was a foot shorter that the dog's elbow. The moonlight spilled in the room reflecting off the dog's fur giving her a heavenly glow.

'Is this a guardian angel?' Rin thought in awe. She had heard many stories about guardian angels and how they would come to the people they were assigned to so they could save or help in dyer times. Was this dog her guardian angel? The pure thought excited her. Thrill rush through her body as Rin looked over the dog. It was clearly all white with black paws, a very long and fury tail as well as a black paw mark on its forehead and it had two large triangular ears up top its head. The large canine's lips pulled back to reveal her pearl white fangs.

"I see you have wakened…how's you're wound?" Her voice was gentle and soothing.

Rin blinked, did the dog just speak?

"Y-you can talk!"

The dog's grin grew in size her teeth shimmering in the moonlight, "Indeed I can speak the words of man…You have failed to answer my question…It's only fair since I answer yours…"

Rin smiled, "It's great! You did a good job for someone with no hands! Are you the dog that saved me?"

The dog nodded, "Indeed I am…Where are my manners my name is Kagome…and you are?"

Rin smile grew, "Oh that's easy! Rin's name is Rin! Nice to meet you Kagome-sama!"

Kagome smiled warmly at her innocence and at the way she referred to herself in the third person. Kagome made her way over to Rin and lay down beside her.

"Sleep now little one we will discus this further in the morning."

Rin nodded and fall into a deep sleep as she snuggled into Kagome soft fur. Kagome giggled some and laid her head on the torn pieces of clothing.

"Sleep well…Rin…"
