Disclaimers on everything that I don't own.

Meditation,

By Winterwing3000

The minutes ticked by and yet all she could do was sit there in frustration.

'Find your center, feel the weight of your soul. Feel the solid walls of your aura. Expand your aura and sense others.' He told her calmly yesterday, sitting Indian style across from her.

Heaving a deep breath, she fidgeted, but didn't open her eyes. How was she supposed to find it when she doesn't even know how it looks like! She could be outside, picking flowers, or racing with Master Jaken. Even grooming Ah-Un sounded more appealing.

"Rin… concentrate and open your mind and senses. Otherwise, you'll be sitting here till dinner." A stoic baritone voice said from behind. Immediately, her posture stiffened and her mind became blank of all thoughts.

There was a rustle of clothing and then a heavy hand landed on her right shoulder. His claws tickled her as it gently gripped onto her. "Think of following water, think of the windless meadows, think of the peaceful moments of nature." He advised almost uncharacteristically.

"Yes Master Sesshomaru!" she replied automatically, attempting to picture them. After a few moments, an image drew into her mind. Silvery hair glinting in the moonlight, amber eyes licked with firelight, the white clothing dashed with gray shadows. She felt the soft furry pelt, warm and comfortable. She remembered the way his clawed fingers ran through her scalp, calming her from the nightmare. She remembered his caring words when she first found him.

Finally she found something… a glowing orange light mingling with a bleak white light. Somehow, despite the white's brightness, it seemed soothing. She tried to make the light brighter and found other curious colors. Green, red, blue, yellow, and gold.

Gasping in surprise, her eyes snapped opened, mouth gaping in awe. He only looked down at her, waiting for her words. When her words came to her, she clapped in glee. "I found it Master Sesshomaru!"

He nodded and was given a grateful kiss on the cheek.

Notes : Rin is about 12 while Seshsomaru's 700+.

AN: Da di dum dum! I thought that this was tres mignonne! Non?
