What Reason

Chapter 2. Training and a little battle

Rin woke up to a bright morning, once the sun reached to her eyes kind of blinding her. Then she realize what time it was and jump up right away and started digging through her stuff searching for her out fit and weapons so that she could prove to her master that she was the best. Over then years she have proven that she was strong. She was very strong for a woman, a woman that was once a ward to a great demon lord, is now almost becoming a legend. Finally finding her sword, dagger, and whip in the chest were she had stuff hidden she came across something familiar, Rin slowly reached to the bottom of the trunk and pull out her old kimono. It seems to be in good condition after all the years in hiding. Then remember when her caretaker got mad at her for wearing the same kimono everyday and that was given to her from a demon.

FLASHBACK

" But I don't want to wear that" Cried Rin looking at the fade blue kimono and a green obi that the old woman held for her.

" You're a young lady now and must get rid of in case that demon had curse it." The old woman said, since the first day of the time Rin came the village. The humble people had placed her with an old woman who hated demons and didn't want children. So ever since the old woman tried to dispose her checkered Kimono that Lord Sesshomaru had given her.

" Lord Sesshomaru had never cursed this kimono, I love th-"

" Now that's enough. If you want to stay here your going to understand that there's rules in this house," the old woman said

"You think I wanted to stay here. I've never wanted to stay here, I've been told to stay here." Rin cried falling to her knees and tears coming down her face while the old woman stood there, before she could say anything Rin continue. " I feel like I'm back in to my scary past, in the last village. The place where I had died"

"What do you mean child?" The woman asked kneeling down next to Rin " What do you mean you died?"

Rin then explained everything of her past. The invasion of bandits, the unwelcome village, meeting Sesshomaru, the wolves, her death, then How lord Sesshomaru revived her from the death, after that the life with Lord Sesshomaru. The old woman was shock of what the little girl had experienced though out the past and had that demon cared for her. After awhile she felt bad for mentioning her former master as demon, well of course he's a demon but still Little Rin grown close to him, and it was popularly hard for her to be left behind. With that she got up to put the kimono away, Rin look at the woman in a fearful expression.

"What are you doing?" Rin asked.

" Ok after all the hardships that you been through I'll let you wear your kimono until you feel like it's time when you want to stop wearing it." The old woman said,

"Thank you, mi-" Rin was cut off.

" You don't need to call me lady, just call me grandma, I'll accept you in to my home." She said welcoming, Rin was so happy that she ran to her grandmother and embraced her. Grandmother returned the child's embrace, for the first time in her years she thought to herself " Now I know what it means to have someone there beside you. I wonder how that de- I mean Her Lord Sesshomaru is holding on. Did he feel for this child? He must have cause if he didn't he wouldn't have kept Rin alive or brought her back. What did this child do to him to let her follow him? Rin slowly broke their little embrace and smiled at her new grandmother. That smile was so genuine and beautiful even the old woman had to grasp, was it her smile that made him give up on killing and protecting her? And for some reason she felt warm inside. Happiness.

" Now Rin when do you have to meet master Kenji" Her grandma asked sweetly.

"I'm suppose to meet him right n-"

END OF FLASH BACK

"NOW " Rin dressed fast in her black demon slayer outfit (part of being invisible) with her armor over her weakest points of her body (the stomach). Then grabbed just her sword, dagger, and whip and ran out of her home. The people were already up to attend morning chores; some teenagers were helping with their parents.

"Good luck Lady Rin" One had called out after seeing her dash out very fast out of her home.

"Baka, I'm such a fool. I'm always late." Rin said to her self while running trying to put her weapons in order. Her dagger at her side of her boot, sword on her side hip and the whip curled up behind her back. Her cloth mask that just covered part of her nose and mouth, only leaving her brown eyes out on the open and then left her hair down, told by master Kenji to always hid her identity when ever she's in battle, if she don't then it would be a dishonor.

Rin was leaning to be a demon slayer, and a ninja from very skilled people. First her best friend Sango- Chan was teaching Rin the specialties of using the sword that the sword smith had made for her. The sword was the kind that could find and aim for weak spots, then her ultimate powers called enemies force. That was to take the enemies attack and send it back to them. Another was called Sapphire blades, that sends off white blades of Sapphire. Her swords name was called Ixia. So Sango had volunteered to help her to wield it, and now Rin could do it perfectly. Second Master Kenji was a natural teacher to teach her the art of Ninjutsu and Judo, he taught her to use her body as a weapon with a stealthy movement, being invisible to sneak around her enemies. So today she'll be done with everything except for a special technique. The ability to sense any presence to anything such as: Demon, Human or Danger.

Rin ran to the clearing where she trains with Master Kenji, she was late but got there in time to see him standing there meditating. So she decided to try to sneak up on him. Rin jump on a tree branch, when her master turn around to her direction but she quickly hid behind the tree before he saw her. But to her master he knows that she's here and in hiding, but he already knows where she is hiding. When Rin look back to see her master gone from the spot were he was sitting at. Curious she jumped from the high branch and landed gracefully on the ground, but just to keep on mind that her master likes to play tricks on her sometimes, he use to jump out and tickle her but that's when she was younger. Now a grown woman she must keep her mind on alert, cause her master will jump out and start fighting with her. So Continuously Rin continue to hid, nut she was getting an odd feeling that she was being watched from behind so she slowly bent down to the ground were she could easily pullout her dagger. Then something was coming straight for her like a sword or an arrow, she dodged it easily and brought out her dagger and threw it towards the stalker. But he easily dodged it too. Rin finally realize that her master was no going to take it easy this time. So she decided to make a nice move on him. She decided to bring up her previous training; Rin closed her eyes and thought back.

"Rin. What do you fear?"

"I fear that I might be alone again, losing something or someone that I cared."

"Tell my student. Tell me what you hear and feel?" Rin only answered this in her own head.

"I could hear footsteps they are very close. Wait it stop. Now I could hear is birds singing, the wind blowing and some one breathing an-. Wait someone's breathing! They are near; something's unsheathing a sword very slowly. They're panning an attack. Their not nerves, they feel no fear. Great now they're coming closer and closer. I knew it. It's master. I could feel him behind me waving his sword towards my neck." Rin dodge the man's sword that was aiming for her, when he was swinging his sword again she move quickly away from, in a flash she took out her Ixia and block it. Every move he would make she would always block it and every move that she would make he would always block it. This person was skilled and strong he was also pretty quick too. Like one minute he was in front of her than the next moment he was behind her. Then found out that the figure was her master cause most times she understood his moves and his same trick. (Disappearing or jump backwards) It seem like hours when they were fighting then came to and end when she kick him in the stomach that sent him flying to the ground. Rin than jump to his side and point her sword at his neck and said, "My point."

Clap!

Clap!

Clap!

"Very well done Rin." He said getting up from the ground. "You have passed your and I have nothing more to teach you."

"What! But I thought that you're going to teach me more-"

"I wanted to see if you remembered your training from last week. And you successfully pulled it off. I was planning to attack you first got here. This was the challenging one of all. It was for you to defect your master. Before he kills you." He said, slowly walking to her. " Now Rin as you can see that I've reached to the age where I will have to step down from training. For today was the last time that I'll be done with one of my best students, the greatest actually. So I leave this to you" He handed Rin a sliver dagger, the size of her fore arm, the blade was very light, but it was sharp as a razor. " Now I bide you farewell Rin." Then at the same time they bowed to each other. The Rin ran to him and embraced him like he was her own father; he had always been there for her. They broke apart and he walks away from her and the clearing.

Rin was about to walk out of the clearing when she felt another presence in the area it was a powerful aura heading her way. Then she caught some voices along with it. One voice sounded very squeaky and annoying the other was deep. Then a roar was with it.

"Milord how long is we going to keep looking for him?" The unknown squeaky voice asked

"Until I find him and kill him." The deep voice replied.

" Then what are we-----" The voice was caught off.

"Silence Jaken!" Wait did he just say Jaken?

"But—"

"We are not alone." The voice said. The voices stopped with an eerie silence.

"Oh shit there right behind me!" Rin screamed inside her mind, she then turns slowly around to face three dark shadows that were hidden inside the forest. Rin slowly took out her Ixia from her hip and look away. " You know you could come out of the trees. There's no one here besides you and I. Demon." She smiled inside her cloth and turn fully around to face only one. It was only a small demon. It was only three feet tall, a beak, had green skin, and big yellow eyes. Rin could have cried to see her old friend Jaken.

" Who are you to order you about?" Jaken screamed at her, unknowing that is was his tormenter from the past.

"Oh it wasn't an order, it was a sub jesting. Imp but it seems that you had follow it." She said, than the other figure came out of the shadows. Her eyes widen a little but she knew how to not express her emotions at times like this. There standing there in the flesh was Lord Sesshomaru. " So the other demon comes out. Are you going to ask me the same thing?"

"Who are you human?" He asked.

"Who am I, is not important to you, Demon!" she answered, gripping her Ixia.

"Stealth your sword, This Sesshomaru does not to wish to fight a helpless mortal." He said gripping hold of his own sword.

"Ha! Helpless." Rin said.

"I only want to ask a question and if the question is not answered than I'll kill you." He warned in a cold voice.

" Ok then ask me the question, jeez"

" Are you from the village that's not far from here? He simply asked.

"I should answer cause why? You want to destroy it cause if you want to you'll have to come over my dead body." She said, rising her sword.

" No. I only seek a woman that goes by the name Rin" My little Rin his mind spoken for him.

"So he hasn't forgotten about me" her mind spoken. " Well yes I do know a Rin, and what is it that you want with her?"

"Is she safe?

"Yes"

"And how do you know her?"

Oh no! "Cause I'm her friend"

"If so, then why do you strongly smell like her?"

There was silence between Rin and Sesshomaru; she was about to speak when a voice came out from behind her.

"My Lady, My lady!" Rin turn around to face her other friend Ju, standing behind her.

"Ju, What is it? What's wrong? She asked kneeling down to her.

"You must go and help the village. We're in danger. Please My lady." Ju pleaded.

" Stay here Ju. And I'll be back." Then Rin had stealth her sword and started running through the trees when a white blur pass by her. Then she realized that Lord Sesshomaru was in front of her, making sure that she wouldn't pass by him. Rin came to a halt before colliding into him.

"What are you doing?" She furiously asked him.

"You still have answered by question, why do you smell like her and what is your name?" He said in a warning tone.

In a quick flash Rin drawn out her sword and pointed at him. "Who am I is none of my business? Rin told me everything of what you did to her. I had embraced her before I left. Now let me pass and leave Rin alone." Then without warning to Sesshomaru she jumps over him and ran towards the village. She longer felt his presence behind her. She started running again to the village, the closer she got the louder the screams got. Then a monstrous roar came from the bushes and the skies. Then a large black beetle demon pops up from the ground and started destroying a rice field. Rin held out her Ixia and ran to the beast the opposite direction of where some people were running from.

"Lady Rin, Please help the men" A woman call out, and Rin responses by running with the men towards the beast. It had already started some fires to some houses. Some men were already fighting against the demon

" I'M IN SCEARCH OF THE ONE CALLED LADY RIN, THAT DAM PROTECTOR THAT HAD KILL MY LITTLE BROTHER. THE ONE THAT HAD USE HIS SKIN AS ARMOR," The demon said swinging his paw hitting one man but not getting killed. Rin in mean while stood there with no fear, than shouted at the beetle.

"I'm down here you filthily vermin," she said, watching the demon turn around then looked down at her.

"I'VE COME TO REVENAGE MY BROTHERS DEATH," he said putting his paw in the air then slamming it on the ground. Luckily Rin jump out of the way just in time from getting smash flat from the demons paw. The creature raised his paw again but not all the way. He was stop have way there when he felt pain underneath him, he look under to see his enemy sticking his sword through his stomach. He then collapsed to the ground in his mind he said " Brother I have fail you." Then he was dead.

Rin dodged the paw; in a flash she ran underneath him and stuck her sword in to his belly, the moved out of the way when he was falling on the ground. Rin then check to make sure that he was dead, by slicing his head off Aw now she get's new armor. Now thinking she heard that a demon was causing some damages in search of something. Other than Lord Sesshomaru's enemy Naraku the one that was looking for a jewel shards as long she could remember.5

"My lady is the demon dead?" One of the fellow brave men that were standing there had asked. Rin smiled and nodded yes, then she took out her new dagger and started to skin it to make her new armor. Beetle's armor is very strong and can last for a long time. The blue one she wore was already small on her, that demon had attacked about three years ago. And that's when she first got her Ixia, cause the first sword had broke in half.

Once she was done she turned to see everybody returning back there homes. The ones that were set on fire had been put out right away and starting to be rebuilt. Rin then went to her hut took off her cloth and got to work right away on her new armor. It was the afternoon when she was finished. Rin tried it on and was prefect in every way, it fit her curves, her kimono was a nice attach to it and her weapons fits perfectly in the ides of her hips.

" My Lady, My Lady," A little voice had cry out. Rin swung quickly around by the panic of the little girls voice." You must come quickly," she said grabbing her hand pulling her outside. Once Rin was outside, all the villagers were standing there and started cheering.

" What's all this?" Rin asked, the people calm down then one of them spoken

"Lady Rin we are celebrating because today's the day that you have come, 8 years ago. And we're also very happy that you're always there when we need your help. So tonight we celebrate for you." And with that they bow to her. Rin in the mean time was about to cry cause deep down she was happy.

" Lady Rin are you ok?" The little girl asked. Rin look down at her. She picks the girl up and lay her on the ground then started tickling her.

" Who you little teaser. You scared me half to death, so I shall punish you." Rin said teasing continuing to make the little one struggle for breath from laughing to hard. " I won't stop until you say your sorry."

"O –ok, I-I-I'm sorry, I- didn't mean too. They made me." The little girl had stuttered pointed at the other children. Rin had stop tickling her and look towards the line of children and adults.

"Well then I shall punish them as well," she said then there was a rush of excitement through the kids as Rin rush to catch them all. Then the feast had started. There was music, singing and dancing. Every one are having a great time, some men were even drunk from the sake they had drinking. And woman were talking and serving some food. Later on was almost nightfall when everyone had gather around Rin when she was telling a story of when she was young and many adventures she been in. She look up to see the people surrounding her she saw the amusement in their eyes and saw they had something to say.

Then her friend Ju spoken out.

"Lady Rin we've like to give our thanks to you." She said once again the crowed bow to her, and then Rin realize that she had to say something.

"Please don't bow to me. After all it was this village that had take me in. The last village was cold and harsh, they never accepted me, I was to survive on my own, but when I was save. I thought that all villages were cold and harsh. But this one had proved me wrong; now know that not all of them are cruel. This village has taught me to be strong, and start over a new life. " She said wiping tears away them continued. " I should be the one thanking you, if it wasn't for ---" Then she stop at the thought of saying Lord Sesshomaru's name out loud, She didn't have to say it because her friend Ju walk up to her and given her a hug, cause she's second person Rin told about Sesshomaru. Then the eldest woman steps up.

" Rin you don't have to say more, we all know what you're going to say," she said embracing Rin." Now get some sleep you've had a long day."

"Ok let me help you clean the mess." Rin said starting to walk towards the dirty pile of dishes, but a line of woman stepped in front of her smiling.

"I think not Rin, get some sleep missy."

"Ok, mommy dearest." She said heading back to her hut, but half way back, Rin got a shiver down her back as some was watching her. She stopped and closed her eyes. She had sensed something just now, it was moving in the bushes. Rin opened her eyes to see something running up the path slowly. Rin ran after it she guess that it had sensed her cause it stopped, she did a front flip and landed in front of it, it turn away to see if someone was following it

" That was close, I hope that she didn't see me." The squeaky voice of Jaken said. Then he turn around to bump in to some legs, he slowly look up to see a pair of eyes, part of her face was still hidden in the shadows.

"Yo," Rin said

Gulp! "Yo, yourself" he said.

"What are you doing?"

" That's no business mortal" BAM!! "Ouch why did you do that for?"

" Then tell me what are you doing here? If you don't then I'll give you another." She warned him.

"Fine, My lord had sent me here to look out the young mortal woman Rin. I have barely got here to see that everyone had retired to them homes. Then that's when I saw you. Tell me how is Rin?" Rin didn't know what to say but then she decides to tell the truth. Cause she knows that's he could keep a secret.

"Rin is fine, Jaken"

"Is she? Tel- waits a minute how do you know me?" Rin sigh and kneel down to his height from the shadows exposing her identity.

"Cause it's me." She said, Jaken in the mean time was dumbfounded

"RINNNNNNNN-" Rin quickly shut his mouth and look around to see if anyone was around, then ran back to her hut with Jaken in her arms. Once in her hut, she light up the fire and sat Jaken down on the floor.

"Are you crazy? You want him to hear you?" She said starting to make some tea for her and Jaken.

"But don't you want to see him again?" Jaken asked her.

Sigh, "I've already did, remember in the clearing? That's when I told him to stay way."

"Oh that's right."

"Where is he Jaken?"

"He's still at that clearing," He answered." He sent me here to see if you were safe and wanted you to come to him if you wanted to see him"

" So he just pops up out of nowhere and asks of me after all these years? Has he even spoken once about me Jaken?"

" Well every time I speak of you he just hits me and tells me to speak of you again." He answers her. Rin just stared in to the fire for while. Why dose Sesshomaru want to see her? She guesses it won't hurt to see him one more time. Rin gets up then walks to her truck full of Kimono's and started to strip her armor and weapons.

"Rin what are you doing?" Jaken asked

"Jaken I want you to take me to him, I want to know what he wants. Do not tell him that I'm that warrior that told him to stay away. Go ahead and tell him that I'm coming. " Rin said taking out a blue Kimono with stars on it.

"Yes, I'll go now." Jaken said getting up and running to the door.

"And Jaken." Jaken stopped at the door and turn to look at Rin.

"Thank you" Jaken turn red and ran out to meet Lord Sesshomaru. Rin mean while dresses in her kimono and leaves her hair down and linger in her hut wondering if that's a good idea.

Jaken ran back to the clearing where His lord was waiting for him. While getting there he was still quite shock that Rin was the warrior from earlier. She had the courage to stand up to Lord Sesshomaru like that. Wow! Getting closer to the clearing he was wondering of what he should say to him, his master could smell a lie hopefully Rin could handle herself. Now he could see Lord Sesshomaru standing in the clearing looking at the sky as always when he was thinking.

" Lord Sesshomaru" Sesshomaru turn around to meet Jaken kneeling down to him.

"Did you find her, Jaken?"

Nervously Jaken replied "Aye milord, she is on her way right now"

" How did you find her?" Sesshomaru asked.

"Well she found me instead." Jaken said standing up dusting himself. They stay quite until they heard footsteps coming slowly towards them then stopped. They both turn to see a womanly figure standing there in the shadows. Then Rin stepped in to the moonlight reviling her. Rin and Sesshomaru locked eyes, and within a minute Rin bowed down to her knee before speaking first.

"It's been years My Lord." She said holding in her emotions.

"Indeed it has." He replied, " You don't have to bow to me Rin, you may stand up Rin" Rin hesitated for a minute before standing up, but not looking at him.

"Why do you not look at me? Silence was Rin answered; she was trying so hard not to cry in front of him. "Today there was a woman a warrior. I presume that you know her."

"Yes, I do know her. She is my friend. Why do you ask?

" She had spoken to me like she can order me around. She told me to stay away from you."

" Well over the years you've haven't come at all. She knows that I've been hurt for you not coming to see me. I guess that she wanted to protect me from not getting hurt." Her replied may them both silenced, Rin was tired of standing so she went over to the log that was lying there and sat down. She later heard steps heading her way. Then she looks up to see him standing over her, then sat right next to her. They sat there in silence, both thinking of what to say or do.

"She grown very beautiful, every thing about her in astonishing her eyes, her body, and hair. I wonder if she has a family, I want to know. I want to hold her hand. I should do it now?" He the reached for her hand and held it. "This is vey interesting it seems that she is in her little world. I wonder what's going on in her head?" He asked himself.

"Why is he doing this? What dose he wants? I wonder if I should say something. Wait a second something's holding my hand. Rin finally was broken out of her little world and look down at her hand and saw that another hand was clutching hers. She then look up at Sesshomaru and was about to say something when he spoken first.

"Rin?" He said looking down at her, leaning closer.

'Um yes" she replied, looking up at him the realized that he was an inch away from her, then he put his lips to hers softy. They held still for about a moment before they broke apart. They look at each other for a minute, before Rin lean in to his lips once again, he returns the kiss but more passionate. They moved in more closely in to each other's arms, but mostly Rin inside of Sesshomaru's. Then Sesshomaru's kisses had traveled to her neck and shoulder, his hands started to travel to her back and than started to fiddle with something behind her. Then Rin realized what was happening, she could feel herself getting hot, and then she felt her clothes becoming loosed around her. She had to stop it before it's too late but she didn't want to stop.

" L-Lord Sesshomaru stop" she husky said, but Sesshomaru continue to kiss her on the neck. She moans when he started to suck on her pressure point." Sesshomaru please stop," she said again now trying to stop him from going farther. Eventually it worked cause he stops what he was doing and moved to look at her.

"You don't want to stop, your scent tells me." He said, than went back to kissing her again. This time Rin struggled for him to stop, but he pulls her closer to him as she is going to drop from his grasp. Then that's when she realizes his second arm.

"How did you get your arm to grow back?" Rin asked, he smiled and stroke her cheek with his left arm.

"For humans it doesn't grow back. But for demons it takes only ten years to grow back. You were 9 years old when I first met you, now you're what 19. So my arm is now grown fully."

"Wow that's great, for you. "Rin told him, than all of a sudden she was sitting on his lap.

" I don't want you to go back to that village, your going to come with me now." Oh what he said had really tipped her off, she was shock of what he had said. That had given her more fuel to her anger. She quickly look at him and got off his lap. She then started walking back towards the village. Now what? he leaves her and now wants her back, how ridiculous is he? In a flash he was standing in front of her. " Rin?"

Rin didn't know what to say she was confused and angry. Rin given him a look of displease and disappointment. He reached for her but she flinch away from him, then started walking away from him. She guess he got the message cause he didn't follow her anymore. Rin got back to her hut and went crazy, she throw her stiff everywhere. Breaking her dishes, broomsticks and punching the walls. After she fell down to the floor crying, she should have never went to see him, he broken her heart one time and she was not going to let him again. She cleaned her mess and fix up her mat on the floor then fell asleep. Never knowing what tomorrow will bring.
