Chapter 5

Sesshomaru sensed InuYasha and turned to watch his brother/mate approach.

"If you say it will be easier for us to get to know each other then I will go but on one condition, treat Shippo as part of the family too. He and Rin have become like siblings and it would not be fair for you to treat her like family but not Shippo." InuYasha said and Sesshomaru chuckled. "Very well InuYasha. I shall try my best to befriend the little Kitsune cub." He said and smiled as kindly as possible.

A little bit later Rin and Shippo came out of a hut with their things and they approached InuYasha and Sesshomaru and Sesshomaru knelt down and patted Rin on the head and then extended a hand to Shippo and Rin took Shippo's hand and Sesshomaru's hand and brought them together. Sesshomaru smiled and thanked Rin for the help and then smiled and welcomed Shippo as family as well. Shippo was shocked but then smiled and hugged Sesshomaru which in turn shocked and surprised Sesshomaru. He chuckled and picked up Shippo and gave him a true hug. The gesture made InuYasha smile and he picked up Rin and her and shippo's things. He gave a nod to Sesshomaru and he moved Shippo to his shoulder and wrapped the mokomoko-sama around InuYasha and Rin and all of them formed into a orb and flew to the Western Palace making it there in just a few hours.

By the time they arrived Rin and Shippo were starving and Sesshomaru asked that Dinner be prepared as quickly as possible and then he proceeded to show his new family around and of where their rooms were. Since InuYasha was Sesshomaru's mate they would eventually have to sleep in the same bed but he did have a room made for InuYasha until they were comfortable with each other. All the rooms were next to each other and they were interconnected by hidden doors.
