It was during 6th period when she was exposed. Rin had been idly doodling when the Trig teacher, idiot that he was, called Rin up to talk about her formula for something. Being the idiot that he was he used Rin's real name instead of Shadow.
As she walked up she felt every female eye on her and Rin knew if looks could kill or if those girls could do what they were thinking, Rin would have been in all seven hells, dipped in acid, had her fingernails pulled out one by one, you get the picture. Her and the teacher talked about her formula while Rin decided he was going to disappear.
She would concoct his demise later though, cause if she wanted to be alive after this, wait if those girls wanted to be alive after this, she was going to need a plan. Tapping her finger to her lip she decided on her method of escape.
The bell rang and in the chaos of leaving, Rin disappeared. Neither the bloodthirsty girls nor Sesshomaru could find her. In reality Rin had used the shadows as a door to get the hell out of there.
Now she was behind her favorite café and wondered what she wanted to do with her extra hour. First that damn teacher's demise, then how to avoid all those girls. What those girls thought of Sesshomaru was obsession, plain and simple.
Rin herself was attracted to him. She liked his wit, morbid humor, and dry sarcasm. He wasn't a complete idiot like Inuyasha, who was as beautiful, because if he had been Rin wouldn't have wasted her time.
But he was beautiful in and out and she honest to god liked him. It was just how far she could trust him. Inutaisho suspected and she didn't blame him. The half moon was tonight so she wouldn't be getting much sleep. Might as well get it now while she could.
Sesshomaru ignored the teacher who was going to die a painful, miserable death and looked for Rin. It was after school and he hadn't seen Rin since the bell rang sixth period.
Frowning, he went to his car, a Jaguar XJ220 that practically glistened dark blue in the sun. He had restored this baby when his father had gotten a hold of it as a reward in a business deal.
It took him four years and ten thousand dollars to restore her to her original beauty but when he got her up to 217 on the road it was worth it. He slipped in and caressed the black leather upholstery lovingly.
His brother and father teased him that he treated that car better than he would treat a lover, and Sesshomaru would be the first to admit it. He loved his car but at the moment he was concerned about Rin. A glint of white caught his eye and he picked up a note.
Sesshomaru, sorry but if those girls wanted to live I had to skip 7th period. I'm going to have to skip out on our study date tonight since I have a body to dispose of and a few…security measures to set up. Rin
Sesshomaru frowned. Security measures? What security measures? He was willing to bet though, that he wouldn't be seeing the Trig teacher again. Placing the Jag in reverse he pulled out, then away.
The full moon aroused her blood like a lover and Rin strained against it as she moved stealthily though the forest. She was glad she had canceled Sesshomaru and her little date.
She had almost forgotten it was half moon and the last thing she needed was giving Inutaisho more reason to be suspicious. This was the one night she could not hide her demonic features.
Two black stripes on either side of her face reached back until they hit her hairline, a single black stripe on the backs of her hands, and her silver eyes glowed with an eerie light. On her forehead, though, was the mark that set her apart from all the other demons.
A purple crescent moon lay beneath a shining silver pentagram. The pentagram, though, was different. It only had one ring and the lines made up a star like normal ones. Yet even in the half moon light it shown silver, which marked Rin as the most powerful being to walk the earth; a hybrid of the most dangerous kind.
She was part Black Inu-demon, which in itself was only rivaled by the white Inu's and had been extinct for seven hundred years, and a celestial being, more importantly, a celestial being with control over the fire of the sun, which was one of the more powerful kinds. She was only allowed to exist because her father, the great Titan of the Sun, Hyperion, has said he would have the current sun god, Helius, block off the sun, thus killing everything on earth if she was destroyed.
Her father had trained her on how to use her power over star fire, which was fused of the Black Inu-demon dark powers and Hyperion's sun powers, when she had been little. Her mother, the last Black Inu-demon, had died giving birth to her.
Without her father Rin would have been forced to grow up alone and possibly grow insane with the effort to control her deadly powers. Tonight was a solar eclipse, even though it was on the other side of the world, and her powers were going to be going through the roof.
She reached the edge of the forest, where the trees melded out to a rocky beach, and placed her hand on the trunk of a tree. Under her hand the pentagram was grown into the trunk, as if it had been there forever; her silent tribute to her father.
Coming to the beach she raised her hands and her black haori with its silver and violet ends flapped in the silent breeze. Her black tail flipped crazily on her shoulder while Rin closed her eyes and breathed in.
The power of the sun and moon flooded her. Briefly, the entire beach and forest glittered with dark light, before going out to become normal again. Rin stood there, in that position, for the rest of the night.
Her thoughts, normally drained during this ritual, were not focused on the eclipse, but on a white Inu-demon she had no right to dwell on. Sesshomaru.
A few miles away, the white Inu-demon on Rin's mind leaned over his balcony, watching the half moon. His thoughts were full of the small girl filled with secrets he didn't understand. Rin.
