Guys! i ran into a small problem! does sesshomaru ALWAYS say 'this sesshomaru' or does he also say 'me' 'my' and those other things? sorry! as i have said i only watched one of their episodes. (and a half)

"Alright. We will come with you. But I need some sort of job in order to stay there." kagome consented. She swiped her hair out of her face.

"Why would you need a job? This Sesshomaru is offering to take care of you and your family. You will have no need for a job, Kagome-san." Sesshomaru said a tad confused, although he didn't let it show. Or so he thought.

"We are not a charity case. Yeah we have it a bit rough right now, but we are capable of working for our keep." Kagome said stubbornly. Her arms crossed over her chest and her eyes toke on a hard glint. Sesshomaru was impressed with her guts. Hardly anyone defied him or talked to him like that. And even knowing who he was didn't deter her.

"hn. Well, you did say that miko's are healers. This Sesshomaru could use a miko in the healing ward." Sesshomaru said after a moment of thought.

"Let me think on it and talk to the kids about it." She opened the door and stepped in without letting him have a chance to say anything to them. He stepped in to the hut in time to catch kagome scolding Shippo for listening through a crack in the wall.

"Shippo! I thought I taught you better! Eavesdropping is wrong!" kagome scolded the child.

The boy put his hands behind him and bashfully looked at the ground.

"I'm sorry mama….." he said sweetly. His eyes where huge and glistened for a moment as he looked up at his adoptive mother innocently. Kagome's angry posture faltered for a moment and then she broke down.

"Oh Shippo….it's okay….here go on outside and try to find some kindling. Okay sweetheart?" kagome said. She got his small and worn jacket down from a peg. Shippo happily took the offered jacket and pulled it on. He raced out side and into a grove of trees. Sesshomaru shut the door after the boy. Rin was staring at him, curled up on her side under his jacket.

"Rin, sweetie. It's time that you got up." Kagome said as she heated some water.

"Rin is hungry, mama…." Rin said as she grudgingly pushed the jacket off of her and got up. Her bare feet wiggled in the dirt and her hair was wild around her face.

Sesshomaru had to admit that she was a cute kid.

I know its a short chappie, but I'm in school but felt extremely guilty for not updating! I went driving two days ago and got scared. nearly got rear ended (my fault) and blew a exit (my fault) and nearly turned right into some one (my fault) ha ha whoops. then I made a cake. so yeah I was busy. review and tell me what you think!
