Words couldn't describe the rage he felt right now, who does he thinks he is? Kenji crushed the piece of paper, the paper combusted itself and became ashes. Rin was away right now, taking a bath in the nearby river.

He didn't want her to know, as he knew, she would go there without hesitation, not only was it an insult to her and the eastern lands, but who does he think he is, he isn't worthy of her, how dare he think that he can lay his dirty hands on her.

Rin was bathing in this rotenburo [outdoor hot spring, I want to go to one...], it had this waterfall, everything seemed peaceful for her, the only thing wrong right now as the fact that, in this peace and quiet her heart was a storm, the more she thought of him, the more her heart ached.

Right now she had everything she could need, a loving country, a loving brother, riches that could make anyone happy, but she wasn't happy, being once again in nature she remembered the one thing that made her happy. Sesshomaru.

She sighed, she should be happy, be grateful for what she has, but everything seemed insignificant as compared to him, but who was she kidding, she was the one who decided to leave, she should bear the consequences. He would never forgive her for the betrayal, she knew that he was like that, so going back was not an option.

She got out of the bath, she didn't want to think about the grudge he had for her betrayal, it seemed to her, this was all pointless, she could never face her heart truthfully anymore, all she had now was logic and her brain to keep her heart safe.

She return to where Kenji was waiting. Kenji stood up and wondered why she had that sad look again, but he knew asking her or trying to pry on those thoughts was an invasion of her privacy, whenever she looked sad, he would stop himself from reading her mind, and tried to be the big brother and cheer her up.

'Hey Rin, I am sorry something cropped up back in Dragonville, do you mind if I drop you back at the castle then solve their problems?' he forced himself to look normal, not wanting to draw her suspicion.

'sure, its getting late, lets head home' she gave a sad smile. She just hoped that tonight she wouldn't have dreams of him. Kenji rode his horse alongside with her, together silently they both headed back to the castle.

General Eguchi was very worried, did she go to the western lands herself. He knew she would be furious about the proposal, hopefully Lord Kenji could keep her calm and talk it out with her, but then again comparing both Lady Rin and Lord Kenji, the Lord was more likely to egg her on. He could only hope.

The guards informed him of the return of the the Lord and Lady, he sighed a breathe of relief, but wait it had him more worried. This is odd, knowing Her Lady would be furious, he could only wait till she came into the castle to find out the situation.

'Rin, you should go and get some rest' Kenji offered, upon entering the castle, at the corner of his eye he spotted General Eguchi. 'Ok, you should go back soon and solve the problem in Dragonville' she smiled as she teased him, Dragonville was a joke she had with him.

'Sure, good night' he smiled at her, all that he planned to do, would be for the sake to keep her safe, and to get rid of the vermin that seemed to think he was worthy of her.

Rin proceeded to her room, 'Lord Kenji, I have a few questions for you' Eguchi bowed and paid his respect 'Eguchi, she doesn't know and doesn't have to know, do you understand?' Kenji's eye turned blood red 'I shall go to the western lands now to go and solve the problem' he said as a matter-of-factly

'My Lord, as the adviser I have to say this, we can afford a war, but explaining to her lady how it started without her knowing is not a good idea, as much as I think the request is absurd, she would prefer us use diplomatic means to resolve the problem.' Eguchi said respectfully 'Eguchi, the solution is very simple isn;t it? Once you cut off the head, the rest of the body stops moving doesn't it?' Kenji said maniacally 'My Lord, please think about the consequences, please my lord' Eguchi pleaded

Once again he stood here, in front of the doors of the room, a few days back the head servant informed him that they will be doing a mass cleaning of the castle, and his opinion of what to do with the stuff in this room.

All it took was a death glare, who did they think they are? How they have the audacity to think that they are worthy to touch her stuff. But who was he kidding, probably himself, after all this time all the things were left as they were, untouched, collecting dust.

He decided he should just get over it, once and for all get in there and throw everything out. What was he afraid of, opening this room and finding her there? She was gone, in the end like all other humans she had betrayed him.

That was unforgivable, but why, why was he afraid, wasn't he the great lord of the western lands? Had she grew onto him and like his father had he became weak against her? And why for the 100th time had he stop in his tracks in front of this room, every time he came, he couldn't open the door, he was afraid.

Afraid if he opened the door, all that was left of her, the last remanding air that had her scent would disappear, and memories of her would also disappear from this castle. He had to admit to himself he was being really stupid, what was wrong with him, he didn't know.

He walked away, turning his back and beginning to walk away when she came. 'my my, Lord Sesshomaru, just in time' Lady Kioko bowed respectfully.

'I was wondering if I could help the head servant by clearing out the stuff in this room' she said haughtily. Anger begin to rise within him 'the head servant was saying how it was a waste that a room that a a beautiful view of the western lands, was not put to...'

Lady Kioko found her face to face with Sesshomaru, a very angry Sesshomaru, with his poisonous claw just within reach of her face. 'Do not even think about it, unless you do not value your life' Sesshomaru said angrily.
