Chapter 2

"Kagome-sama, do you mean to tell me that you intend to bring Lord Sesshomaru to your home?..." he couldn't help, but be slightly surprised and intrigued by this new turn of events...

"Kagome!! You really mean it?! Rin-chan is going to be joining the group fore awhile?!" Sango was excited...a child to play with fore the both of us...this would be fun

"Hai, Sango, she will...now can we please get a move on and out of this pointless conversation...I don't want to waste our days here!! We have tons of shopping to do and we have GOT to hit the beach and the mall..."continues to list things to self

"Got it!" about 15 minutes later after everyone was finally gathered and into clothes that were appropriate fore this Era I could hear mom calling to us.

"Lunch is ready!" We all went into the kitchen and had ourselves some of mom's pickled veggies and meat fore lunch and preceded to hit the mall and many other stores...By time we got home it was Dinner time and we were loaded with bags from clothes to groceries to entertainment items and medicine...

"Wow...that was a LONG day...what did you guys think?"

"OMG, Kagome...your world is so interesting and it's got so many convenient things...I can't believe you can even live in the Feudal Era after living here!" Sango replied in rapt succession.

"I'd have to agree with Sango-san on this Kagome-sama." Miroku although having quite a lot of fun today was most likely just looking forward to the beach tomorrow...

"Okaa-san, I loved the candy store the best!! can we go back tomorrow after the beach?" Shippo asked playing his newly acquired PSP.

"No Shippo, I think we have plenty of candy as it is and I don't need you and Rin getting cavities...what would I say to the dentists when I brought you in and the attempt to remove your fangs? scares him"

"Ok, I don't want to go to the dentist..."

The rest of the trip went by pretty much un-eventful. Feudal family got to know the Modern family and such. Before we realized it was time to return…Everybody got all their things together after lunch. I had to double and triple check that I had everything. 'Lets see…Medical supplies to last at least a year, depending on what happens. A variety of foods to last the next couple months as well as bathing supplies and tons of new clothes…I think we have everything…wait, where did Rin's presents go!' "Mom! Do you know where I put Rin's presents?"

"Yes dear, they're in your closet."

"Thanks!" and with that I grab the last few items and packed them up. Dinner time came soon enough and we were eating mom's amazing cooking. Tonight's meal: pickled veggies, sliced steak, and pork fried rice. YUMMY! After dinner we decided we were going to head back.

With Sesshomaru

They had been traveling all day. Rin had come to him a few days ago saying she wished to see the Miko again. As such I could not refuse her innocent request. Which is why they were now on their way to the village by Inuyasha's forest. "Jaken, watch Rin"

"Y-Yes Mi Lord!" 'the insufferable fool…why do I even keep him around?...ah, yes because it would sadden Rin to see him go. No matter' With that Sesshomaru walked off to think about how things had been going as of late. He had sped through the forest to arrive at a fairly "close" hot-spring. The sulfur calmed him enough to think logically on his situation regarding the miko and how he had come to 'respect' her.

'The miko has proven through past encounters that she has a high motherly nature about her' Yes, my mate is indeed motherly; towards both her kit and our Rin. 'your mate?!' Yes…did I not inform you of my wish to have her fore our-self?... 'No…we will not mate the miko…she is human…she would surely perish along with her friends in the near future' We SHALL mate with the miko, you will come to see that shortly…as fore her mortality…you should well remember that a miko that mates a demon will be turned into a demon of the same breed and thus share our lifespan and give us strong FULL demon pups…your argument is futile 'I will not listen to you…I remember very well what we learned as a pup, now if you could LEAVE it would be appreciated… fine, but I'll be back...He was cut off from his thoughts when he heard a shrill scream, but not just any scream…Rin's scream. Sesshomaru was back at camp in mere seconds to find that both Ah-Un and Jaken lie unconscious to the sidelines as Rin lay beneath an ogre demon hell bent on raping the little girl before he ate her. Within seconds the demon had perished to Sesshomaru's acid whip and he retrieved the girl only to have her pass out in his arms due to injuries acquired before he had decimated the ogre. Jaken and Ah-Un were promptly resurrected so as to get Rin help at the fastest rate possible. He could not trust any demon nor human with his ward…except one…the miko. "Jaken, Ah-Un come we leave to Edo" and with that he headed to the village just outside of Inuyasha's forest where our little ragtag group had just returned to from the miko's home.

With the Inutachi in Edo

We had arrived last night after supper and settled down to sleep until morning. The day thus far had gone without a hitch…Miroku groping Sango, her hitting him fore groping her…Shippo had coloured until he could colour no more, Inuyasha had yet to return from his escapade with Kikyo the night they left, or at least that was her perspective.

We had just started lunch when Shippo ran into my arms and Kirara went on edge. Fore a moment I was confused as to why they reacted as such…until I felt the demonic aura moments later, but it seemed familiar somehow…wait…it Sesshomaru! "Shippo, Kirara calm down it's just Sesshomaru…something has happened to upset him…Miroku, Sango can you stay here and watch Shippo while I go see what has occurred?"

"Of course Kagome-chan…just be careful…Even if he is a friend now…an upset Demon Lord is bad…"

"Don't worry…I'll be careful guys." And with that I was off into the forest to see what had Sesshomaru so hot and bothered…little did I know…I would be too, shortly. Within a short amount of time I arrived in a clearing where Sesshomaru showed up a few seconds later with his companions.

"Kagome" he said upon entering the clearing. "I am in need of your assistance with Rin, she has fallen ill and I do not trust others with her well being."

I couldn't believe what was happening. I now understood why he was upset; seeing as I was too now. "oh my gosh! where is she!?" Ah-Un stepped forward with the girl on his back. "poor Rin..." I immediately wanted to figure stuff out. "We'll have to go back to the Village...all my supplies are there...you'll have to tell me the events that happened to put her in such a state, it may help to solve the problem."
