"Totosai! Hurry up! I want my swords!" Sai yelled at the old sword smith.
"Calm down child! They'll be done when they're done!" Totosai yelled back at the girl. He then faced Inuyasha, who was standing beside his daughter. "Inuyasha, are you sure it's a good idea to give this girl two demon swords."
"For the last time, yes Totosai!" Said Inuyasha, clearly losing his patience, having been asked this a thousand times, "The swords are made from my fangs and I bear no malice against humanity. They won't possess her, they'll protect her."
"I know, but I still don't know if it's a good idea to give such a young girl two swords that are the equal of Tetsusaiga and, when combined, surpass even Sesshomaru's Bakusaiga." Totosai replied.
"Shut up and just make the swords." Inuyasha snapped. "I'll make sure she doesn't misuse them."
"I just don't see why she needs them! We all know that she's going to surpass Midoriko and become a warrior priestess. Then I'll have to forge her a priestess' sword. Won't that be powerful enough?"
The punch came from nowhere. Inuyasha's fist left a huge knot on Totosai's forehead.
"Just forge the damn swords Totosai."
"Fine. They're actually already done. I have them with me."
"Yes!" Sai, who had surprisingly had kept quiet for more than 5 seconds, screamed, "I can finally have them!"
She took them as soon as Totosai pulled the out.
"Thanks Totosai!" And with that ran off.
"Wow. She thanked you. I wasn't expecting that..." Inuyasha said dryly.
"Neither was I. I guess Kagome's influence shows through every now and again..."
"Hey! What is that supposed to mean?!" Inuyasha yelled, suddenly on the defensive.
"Nevermind that. I have the bow made from your fang here with me as well. Would you like it now?" "Yeah I'll take it to Kagome to be purified." Inuyasha said, "I didn't expect you to have the bow done so quickly."
"Neither did I, seeing as I've never made a bow before, but it went smoother than I expected."
"Alright, so when she masters her weapons, we have to break them and bring them to you to reforge with her fangs right?"
"Yes, that will allow her to truly master the blades and herself. Knowing her, though, it probably won't take her long to master what she has." Said the grizzled smith, "So, Inuyasha, how is her training as a priestess going?"
"It's like you said, she's definitely going to surpass Midoriko like her mother did and will likely surpass Kagome, but she has a long way to go yet."
"So I have time to take a break before I have to forge a priestess' blade?" Totosai asked hopefully.
"Yeah, I think you're safe old man."
The next day, Sai was training with her new blades Mondai and Jikan. They were both straight blades like Sesshomaru's old Tokijin. She may have only been ten, but she was good with a blade. It didn't take her long to figure out how to channel her demonic energy into the blades. After a few days, she was starting to use Mondai's Dragon Wave technique and Jikan's Dragon Scar technique. After this she began training with her father more than her mother, trying to increase her demonic powers, though she still kept up her training as a priestess. After about 2 months with the blades, she discovered their combined, ultimate technique. She discovered the Dragon Rift. It would be awhile before her demonic powers would grow to allow her to bring these techniques to their full potential, but she had them and was ready to practice.
