HERE IT IS! SESSHOMARU's BIG SECRET!

REVIEW REVIEW REVIEW!

Rin stared wide eyed at the scenery before her. The bone eaters well. Why had they come here? Rin didn't quiet grasp the exact reasoning's behind Sesshomaru bringing her back here. Was it because she had said she felt like she had remembered it...?

"What are we doing here?" Rin questioned her ears flinching slightly as she approached the well and stared down into it. It almost seemed bottomless. Kagome smiled and put her arm around Rin.

"It will all make sense later, trust me Rin" Kagome said before removing her hand and standing on the rickety old well. Rin's eyes, even wider than before now as she grabbed onto the sleeve of Kagome's kimono.

"What are you doing?" Rin pleaded as Kagome shook her hand from her sleeve and jumped down the well. "AHH! Inuyasha! DO SOMETHING!" Rin shouted leaning over the well, and noticing something peculiar. Kagome... Was gone.

Inuyasha grabbed Rin gently by the shoulder and she turned her face towards him. Her pale blue eyes shimmering and glazing over with tears.

"She's fine Rin, come on" Inuyasha said and hopped down the well himself. Rin was left with Sesshomaru, feeling a little less enthused about the trip and her pregnant friends reckless behavior.

"Come" Sesshomaru said Mokomoko wrapping tightly around her wrist as he dragged her with him down the bone eaters well. Rin was almost frightened to open her eyes, until Mokomoko's tightened grip reassured her that Sesshomaru was still by her side. Knowing that, she had no reason to fear and opened her eyes to enjoy a beautiful and dazzling light. One she could recall very faintly.

"How is this possible?" Rin questioned him as he turned to her, his face an emotionless mask. Rin watched him very closely and all of his previous clothing began to change. He was now in a white kimono with a spiked breast plated armor. Not only were they falling through what seemed to be the fabrication of time, but now he had gained an appearance he had 'only' in her dreams... "Lord Sesshomaru..."

As they arrived on the other side of the well. Rin could see Inuyasha and Kagome as she peered up, they seemed to have been arguing heavily with someone. Strange... Rin thought to herself as she jumped out of the well, Sesshomaru following closely behind her.

"Oh! Lord Sesshomaru you have arrived back!" A small green toad like imp screeched hitting Inuyasha with some sort of strange staff and scurrying behind Sesshomaru. Inuyasha grunted and snarled as Kagome grabbed his hand lightly and calmed him down.

"Rin-chan, is that you?" The imp looked over to Rin, who was now fully grown.

"I am sorry... I do not know you..." Rin spoke softly her voice filled with a high amount of nervousness and looked over to the large demon with two heads standing nearby. Rin had not remembered this place at all and felt very anxious being there. Am I still dreaming...? Rin thought to herself.

"Rin, that is Jaken-san" Kagome said her voice striking Rins attention causing her to look over to her. Rin was had a very unsettling feeling about the place and was unable to hide it.

"I'm sorry..." Rin muttered looking down as Mokomoko dropped from her wrist and she looked over to realize Sesshomaru had been walking away. "Where are you going my Lord?"

"Home" Sesshomaru muttered in a soft smokey voice "It is after all why I've brought you here"

Rin remembered that much at least and began to follow after him. Kagome looked over to her husband unknowingly and raised a brow.

"Should we tag along? For Rin's sake?" Kagome asked sweetly as Inuyasha grunted, he had not liked the idea of following around his boastful brother. Especially not the the Western Lands castle, where he had not been 'humbly' excepted.

"She'll be fine" Inuyasha tried to talk his way out of it "Sesshomaru will protect her, he always has"

"That's not what I'm worried about Inuyasha" Kagome replied with a serious look in her eyes. Inuyasha had known exactly what his wife had been refereeing to, he just seen it as none of their concern.

"She will-" Inuyasha was cut off

"Let's go!" Kagome yelled, her hormones finally kicking in as she seen what looked to be fading figures of Rin-Sesshomaru and Jaken.

"Alright!" Inuyasha burst out as he picked her up and began to follow after them.

When they caught up, Kagome mind was racing. Rin hadn't even known she was a part of this world before. She had lost almost all her free spirit attitude and Kagome had known introducing this sort of thing was the wrong approach. Kagome had a must more full proof one.

"Sesshomaru?" Kagome said as he looked to her in annoyance. "Shouldn't we take Rin to Kaedas village first?" Sesshomaru hadn't liked being in question of his actions, and hated every time he had to be near his... No... Sesshomaru stopped all his thoughts and looked at Inuyasha carefully, still no emotion was shown.

"We shall proceed here Miko, if you wish to take Rin to the village after so be it" Sesshomaru responded. Miko? Rin thought to herself. Kagome..

Kagome rolled her eyes and crossed her arms as Jaken began to spout some non sense about questioning Sesshomaru. Inuyasha kicked him into a tree-payback for earlier and continued on until they finally arrived.

Dozen's upon dozens of dog demon women ran from the castle after Sesshomaru and greeted him in an utmost respectable fashion. One in particular stood out to Rin. She faintly resembled him, the crescent moon on her forehead, magenta stripe on her cheeks and arms, the beautiful long white hair and the piercing golden orbs.

"Sesshomaru" The women spoke approaching them, cradling something in her arms. Something, that began mewing. Only faintly, but Rin could hear it. It was defiantly mewing.

"Mother" Sesshomaru responded extending his arms out to grab the tiny bundle from his mothers arms. Shifting of the blanket's reveled a tiny face to Rin, one that had defiantly resembled Sesshomarus.

So many thoughts had been gone through her mind in that instant, she had known Sesshomaru had undoubtedly been with a few women in his day, but so recently? Why had he even come for her at all.. Perhaps, mating truly had meant nothing... Rin tried to keep herself strong as she watched Sesshomaru holding the child in his arms and hearing all the women of the western lands cooing.

Sesshomaru finally turned to Rin, ready to speak. Kagome got slightly nervous... and felt as if her lunch was ready to come up.

"Rin, this is our son. Inuoji" Sesshomaru extended his arms out to Rin, with the small infant. Our son..? Rin was utterly confused now. She was one hundred percent positive this child was not 'theirs'. But Rin smiled to Sesshomaru and took the child in her arms. Looking down to the small gurgling pup, Rin became completely enamored with him. She moved the small tightly wrapped blanket from his tightly clenched fists and immediately he stuck one it in his mouth, silencing his coos.

"Where is.. His real mother?" Rin questioned looking over to Sesshomaru as his eyes were glued to Rin and the pup. Rin could see it again, the softened look in his eyes.

"She died, during childbirth" Sesshomaru's mother spoke. Sesshomaru's mother had a deep sorrowful look on her face as she turned to look at Inuyasha and then turned away. Heading back towards the castle. Something heavy was looming over the Tashio family but Rin had not known quite specifically what it was yet. Why hadn't Kagome spoke of this sooner to her?

Rin took her hand and smoothly rubbed the infants face, where his two deep blue stripes had been. The pup's eyes were widened and he removed his fist from his mouth to babble nonsense.

"Meyo kawicha mer" The infant said. Rin couldn't help but admire his plump cheeks and his strong grip on her finger. She giggled lightly, the kind of signature laugh she had as a child. Suddenly it hit her, like a thousand bricks.

"Sesshomaru-sama..." Rin whispered looking away from the pup and straight at him. "I remember... You, you shoved me down that well... You forced me into Kagome's world... I never belonged there..."

Kagome's eyes widened, she had to hand it to Sesshomaru. Perhaps after all these years he still was the one who had known Rin best.

"Hm" Sesshomaru replied as Rin got closer to him

"You left me in a world of which I didn't belong for over eight years... But why...?" Rin pleaded. She would not be to pushy towards him, considering the sort of relationship they'd had before she left was not one of romantic involvement. However, she was truly hurt that after all this time... If he'd really wanted to be with her... For her to be his mate... Yet only now, after he had a son... One who wreaked of a full demon... Would he come after her..

Sesshomaru just stood there, he could feel Rin's emotions coursing throughout his own body, as if he was going through them himself but did not respond or make any efforts in front of the Western Lands people to try and comfort her what-soever.

"Right..." Rin said letting tears stream down her face. Sesshomaru had never been a talker and before she was okay with that. After all she was a child and she was unworthy to even be traveling with Lord Sesshomaru.

The pup began whining and struggling in Rins arms, both its arms stretched outwards towards her. Rin looked down to the pup and smiled warmly at him, positioning him over her shoulder and rubbing his back lightly. Rin wiped her tears away and turned to face Kagome and Inuyasha.

"I would like to go visit with Kaeda now" Rin spoke softly and Kagome nodded

"Sesshomaru, you mustn't leave, there is work to be done" A inu youkai female approached him. She looked high up in a general ranking and Sesshomaru narrowed his gaze at her.

"Rin" Sesshomaru began as Rin turned to him "Are you able to take Inuoji along with you? I will be there as soon as I am finished here, and then I may take you around the house as originally planned"

Rin nodded to him. Rin was not so sure of taking Inuoji with her. She was extremely displeased with her Lord at the moment. She had never cared for a child before. However, Sesshomaru had cared for her when she was young. Perhaps if nothing else, she owed him that much.

"I will take him with me" Rin responded as Sesshomaru nodded and turned to head off with countless people of the western lands.

As they all disappeared into the castle Rin looked over to Kagome and Inuyasha, slightly nervous. She had recalled everything, Kagome in fact wasn't at all her best-friend. Why had they played along with her strange amnesia? Why for so long...

"Kagome..." Rin said as they all began walking towards Kaedas village.

"Rin... I'm sorry" Kagome spoke softly "I didn't want you to find things out this way, I figured it'd have been better to ease into things again"

"Why, did you trick me for so long" Rin questioned throwing Kagome completely off guard.

"Trick you?" Kagome asked "I never tricked you"

"You never told me the truth, I consider that a trick" Rin responded pouting lightly and Inuoji tangled his fingers in Rin's long black hair.

"I couldn't. Sesshomaru-sama asked me not to. I figured I'd listen to him, seeing how he knew you best" Kagome responded truthfully as Inuyasha grunted

"Don't be so damn upset with us Rin, Sesshomaru's the one who wanted to keep shit from you until you remembered on your own" Inuyasha snarled

"Well then why after-OW!" Rin gasped grabbing the small pups hand and untangling his fingers from her hair and cradling him once again. "Bad boy Inuoji, that hurt" Rin said softly wagging her finger at him, Inuoji grabbed her wagging finger and bit it lightly with his gummy mouth. Rin laughed lightly and continued "Why has he only just come for me? After he has a son... Was that all he was waiting for? To bare a full demon son?"

Jaken's annoying voice trailed behind them.

"Rin! Wait up!"

"Jaken-san?" Rin questioned "What are you doing?"

"Lord Sesshomaru request that I accompany you and Inuoji" Jaken responded not seeming at all happy about his Lords request. Then again, Rin recalled he never was. It was just as her strange vision. Everything. Although, now... She was allowed to have these feelings for Sesshomaru-sama. Because he had admittedly had them for her.

"I see" Rin responded

"I don't know..." Kagome responded earnestly to Rin's earlier question "I honestly thought he was just waiting until you turned eighteen, but when your birthday had passed and he had still not arrived... I was very disappointed and confused..."

Rin smiled at her, a smile she had not worn on her face for a very long time. One she had always had around her Lord. She had shown it briefly to him on there first 'date' if you want to call it that. But not now she had worn it so warmhearted.

"It is of no concern right now, I am sure my Lord will explain everything when he has a chance" Rin responded. As time went on, she began regaining all previously lost, or new trust for Sesshomaru. She was certain his intentions could not have been solely aimed to hurt her, therefore she decided to stop her nasty thoughts from swimming in her mind any further and keep her head held high. She was where she was suppose to be now, that's all that really mattered.

"So Kagome, do you and Inuyasha live here too?" Rin questioned as Kagome smiled to her. Inuoji began to get strangely fussy.

"Yes, we do! Inuyasha has built our house all on his own, it is quite fantastic. I have even brought a few modern day things for the babies room. You have got to see it!" Kagome said as Inuyasha felt his ego growing in size.

"Perhaps, we can go there after visiting Kaeda and the others?" Rin questioned. "I think Inuoji is getting hungry..."

Jaken smiled proudly and called out for Ah-un! Rin smiled, when she seen Ah-un this time, she was happy she could finally remember exactly where she had belonged.

"Inuoji's milk should be in Ah-un saddle bag" Jaken said smugly as Rin walked over to Ah-un and pet both of them.

"It's good to see you again Ah-un" Rin said before going to the saddle bag and holding Inuoji close. He was crying now, and boy did he ever have a loud cry. Rin smiled lightly and giggled grabbing out his bottle and positioning him for feeding. Kagome stared wide eyed at Rin. She looked like a natural and Inuyasha could tell that worried Kagome.

Rin was looking deeply into Inuoji's sweet honey colored eyes, admiring the soft sucking sounds he made as he drank his milk. Kagome walked over to her and stood next too her, looking down at the infant and beginning to feel a little panicked. Rin sensed Kagome's worries and looked over to her.

"Would you like to try feeding him? After all, you need more practice then me" Rin said smiling and joking with her friend. Rin knew they weren't best-friends before, but they had a real relationship bond back in her era. It's not just like that kind of stuff fades.

"I-Uh-I..." Kagome was hesitant, she hadn't known if she really should feed the pup. The Inu-youkai breed was a very jealous one and she didn't want Inuyasha getting all crazed on her.

"Go ahead Kagome" Inuyasha said softly assuring her and pushing her gently closer to them. Rin smiled and took the bottle from Inuoji's mouth, his lips sucking slightly after it was removed as he began pouting after realizing the flow of milk was cut.

"Here" Rin said handing her the bottle first and positioning herself to hand over Inuoji-who was now screaming to the top of his lungs.

Kagome was a little nervous as she comfortably held the screaming pup. As she was about to try and stick the bottle in his mouth, she could feel six sets of eyes on her and couldn't bring herself to do it.

"I don't think..." Kagome began as Inuyasha stood behind her, wrapping his arms around her and holding onto her swollen belly. Kagome felt a little more comforted and smiled as she put the soft nipple to the babies soft bottom lip and his screams got lower. The pup looked up at Kagome and she smiled softly to him before inserting it into his mouth and letting him eat.

"Oh wow Kagome! You are really good!" A familiar voice called from behind as everyone turned around to see Sango holding a newborn in her arms, Miroku holding a toddler and three of their children-the twins, and their oldest son.

"Sango" Rin said softly.

"Rin!? Is that you!?" Sango said rushing over "Oh! Kohaku will be happy to see you!"

Rin smiled to her. Kohaku had survived... What a miracle.

"It's been a long time" Rin said

"Is that one yours?" Sango questioned looking at the small pup and instantly noticing his markings. Rin was slightly unsure of how to answer that.

"N-Y... Not really, but Lord Sesshomaru has referred to him as OURS, so I will gladly raise him" Rin said all her dark thoughts trying to once again creep into her mind.

"Ah" Sango responded "Well, he looks almost exactly like Sesshomaru-sama" Miroku had gathered their children and joined there friends.

"I agree" Miroku said "His markings, even his stare"

Sango giggled lightly and put her newborn on her shoulder gently rubbing his back, as his head gently rested on her arm and he drifted to sleep.

"Yes, he does" Rin said smiling and leaning down towards the children. "What are your names?"

One of the little girls hid behind her sister. The other one proudly stated.

"My name is Miu! This is my sister Mari!" The bold one said moving and revealing her shy sister.

"My name is Shinichi!" The son shouted smiling broadly

"I will have to take all of you on a journey sometime very soon! We can pick beautiful flowers and sing beautiful songs!" Rin said thinking back to her garden. The garden she had now known was not only a thing of her fantasies.

"That's for girls" Shinichi shouted huffing as Sango giggled lightly and the twins had brilliant smiles plastered across their faces.

"Oh, right..." Rin said thinking on her feet "Well, Shinichi you can be our protector. In case danger is to arrive"

Shinichi smiled just as happily as the twins at Rin's suggestion.

"I can do that!" He yelled as Rin smiled and laughed standing once again

"If it's okay with you guys of course?" Rin said looking to Sango and Miroku, who both looked at each other and nodded.

"If you think you can handle them" Miroku said laughing. Sango was excited, she was always so busy and having just the little ones would be no problem. Then her and Miroku could spend more time together. Being a parent was defiantly a full time job.

"Great!" Rin said smacking her hands together "Next time I see you then, we will be going on our journey!"

"Awe, can't we go now?" Miu pleaded

"I must go see Kaeda first, it has been a long time and I miss her" Rin said "But I promise, within the next few days okay Miu!?"

Miu was reassured and smiled to Rin.

"Okay!"

"You guys are headed to Kaedas?" Miroku asked

"Mhm!" Rin said smiling as Kagome took the empty bottle from Inuoji's mouth and lifted him to her shoulder to burp him.

"Were headed that way too, we will join you" Sango said smiling as drool began leaking down her shoulder from her small newborn.

"Okay, lets go!" Rin said as they began heading off. "Did you want me to take him?"

Kagome looked over to Rin and smiled. Her breath was slightly heavy, holding a baby and having a fat pregnant belly. Not one of her favorite things.

"If you want him, he hasn't burped for me yet though" Kagome said holding the pup out to Rin. Rin grabbed him and positioned him on her shoulder as he cooed lightly. His little belly was all full and he was cozy.

Inuyasha and Miroku walked ahead of the group, Jaken following along. Not wanting to be trapped with the women.

"So that child? Why is Rin caring for it? If it is not hers... Isn't she angry?" Miroku asked knowing exactly how Sango would have felt if he had brought to her another woman's child. Just thinking about it made him shutter.

"Sesshomaru is lucky to have gotten someone like Rin, she's over compassionate and very loyal. I don't think she could be mad at him if she wanted to" Inuyasha remarked. Both of them however, were clueless. As they had always been.

Rin was upset with Sesshomaru, of course. But wasn't going to overreact. That was never the kind of person she had been. She wouldn't start now, no matter what the circumstances were.

WHAT DO YOU THINK!? REVIIIIIIIIIIIEWWWWWW!
