A/N: I do not own Inuyasha or Teen Titans. What does Teen Titans have to do with this fic, you may ask. You will find out. And don't worry. It won't be too surprising. Okay, maybe for some of you but for others… Anyway, I got this idea while reading a Sesshomaru fic and decided to take it for a spin. Well, here goes.
One
Rin skipped ahead of Sesshomaru and bent to pick a flower. Sesshomaru looked down at the child and smiled inwardly at her. If he ever had a daughter…he instantly shook the notion from his mind and looked up at the field laid out before them. A small tug on his kimono made him look back down. Rin held up a small pink and white flower, a huge smile on her small face.
"For you, Master Sesshomaru." Rin said. Politely, the demon lord took the flower and held it a few inches from his nose, inspecting it as the human child turned and ran back down the path. Looking around to make sure no eyes were on him, Sesshomaru tucked the flower into the folds of his kimono and continued walking.
From a distance away, Sesshomaru could hear three people arguing. It sounded like two men and a woman. He growled softly as he saw Inuyasha and Kouga arguing in the path while the miko yelled at them both. The two humans his brother traveled with stood to the side talking softly. The human man reached behind the woman and she hit him across the face while yelling loudly. Oddly enough, Sesshomaru encountered near the same scene each time he crossed paths with his half-demon brother. The miko seemed to notice his presence and stopped yelling at the idiots and began speaking to Sesshomaru.
"Sesshomaru, can you stop these two from arguing?" She asked. Rin stopped and looked up at the demon lord.
"Why would I do that? It makes them both look stronger than they are." The two demons stopped arguing and looked at Sesshomaru. They then began yelling at him. Without saying another word, Sesshomaru walked around them and continued. Inuyasha and Kouga resumed their argument and Kagome sighed letting her shoulders slump.
"Thanks a lot, Sesshomaru!" She yelled. Rin ran after Sesshomaru and began walking again when she was by his side.
"Master Sesshomaru, why do Inuyasha and Kouga argue so much?" Rin asked innocently.
"Because Inuyasha thinks he is better than the wolf and the wolf finds Inuyasha unsuitable to guard the miko." Rin looked back at the two demons arguing in the distance and then looked back up at Sesshomaru.
"Master Sesshomaru, if both Inuyasha and Kouga like Kagome, why don't you?" Sesshomaru stopped and looked down at the child. As much as he tried, he couldn't muster up an answer to her question. As far as he knew, there wasn't an answer to such a question.
"Because I do not." He simply said. Rin seemed to accept this and ran ahead again, stopping to look up at the rolling clouds above. She smiled.
"What are the clouds made of? Are they demon tails? Feathers?" Sesshomaru sighed softly and continued walking.
"Why do you not ask the cloud demon?" Sesshomaru responded.
"Because we have not met one." She responded. Finally figuring he wasn't in the mood to talk, she ran up ahead again and began picking flowers from patches on the sides of the path. Off in the distance, Sesshomaru saw the silhouettes of mountains. Beyond the mountains would be another valley and beyond that another mountain range and beyond that the ocean. He missed the ocean. It had been a long while since he'd seen the seemingly endless waters rippling with the reflection of the sky above. It was most beautiful at night but nighttime on the ocean brought back many memories and one memory that had yet to be banished from his mind (A/N: Reference, here, to the third movie).
With the sound of Inuyasha and his miko long gone and the night time upon him, Sesshomaru sat under a bonsai tree, his tail curled behind him. Rin lay before the fire drawing figures into the dirt with a stick she'd found. The demon lord's eyes wandered to her as she giggled at her own designs in the dirt, smudged them out, and began anew. The thought of a child of his own crossed his mind again. If he had had a daughter, he hoped she would be like Rin. Who, however, would ever want to mate with him? It was a wonder that Rin stuck with him so closely and for that he daily, but silently, thanked her. The simple human child brought the demon more joy than she could ever possibly know.
Secretly the demon wished for someone with whom he could share his everlasting life with. He would, of course, never share that with anyone. Sesshomaru could have any woman he desired, obtaining her out of her own fear of him, but he didn't want that and couldn't see himself acting like that. He'd seen how Kagome loved and followed Inuyasha, even if the idiot himself couldn't see it. The miko would surely give her life for the half demon without a second thought and, subconsciously, so would Inuyasha. That was something Sesshomaru would never find. He couldn't find it, at least not in this time.

A/N: Hey, sorry this chapter was so short but I had to do a kickoff. You might still be wondering what Teen Titans has to do with this fic, even though I told you to hold those damn horses, but I can't tell you just yet. Patience, grasshopper. You will find out in time. Anyway, thanks for reading and tell me what you think. OH! Before I forget, are any of the characters off at all? I kinda thought so but I could be wrong. For Rin, I was just going along with that five year old every sentence is a question thing. Anyway, see ya.
