Thank you for the reviews! This chapter isn't as long as the last one, but longer than most of the chapters.

Inspiration for this chapter came from Dr. Dogma's suggestion. So, if anyone else has prompts/ideas/words/etc., let me know. I'd be able to update more frequently that way.

Disclaimer: I don't own anything from Inuyasha.

-------------------------------------------------------------------

Rin sat in a meadow full of flowers, singing softly to herself as she picked a variety of colors. She glanced to her side and giggled.

Nearby, Jaken was laying flat on his back, snoring with his mouth wide open. But that was only partly why Rin was giggling.

Over the past hour, Rin had been making small bouquets of flowers, as well as making flower chains. After having noticed that Jaken had fallen asleep, Rin had placed flower chains around his neck and arms, then placed little bouquets all over him. Rin smothered her laughter. Jaken looked like a small garden with all of the flowers on him.

Rin went back to picking flowers. Maybe she should make a bouquet for Sesshomaru. Would he like it?

Loud shouts suddenly came from a small forest that was several hundred feet away from Rin.

The shouts died away, leaving Rin confused, but curious. Leaving the flowers near Jaken, she poked Ah-Un to get its attention. "I'm going over there for a little while. I'll be back soon, okay?" Seeing that the two-headed dragon seemed to nod in agreement, Rin dashed off towards the source of the noise.

A few minutes later…

Rin entered the small forest cautiously, and wandered around for a little while. But she didn't find anyone else that could have been making the shouts. Slight rustling to her right made Rin dive for cover behind a tree. She peered around it to see a small figure come out into a small clearing, muttering angrily as it rubbed its head.

"Stupid Inuyasha. I wonder if Kagome's making him sit again." There was a pause. "I hope she does. He shouldn't be so mean over something little like that."

Rin relaxed slightly. Since there didn't seem to be anything wrong, she came out of hiding. She saw that the speaker was a little fox demon. "Hello."

The little fox demon jumped at her voice and spun around. "Don't do that! You scared me!"

Rin smiled. "Sorry. My name's Rin. Who're you?"

"Shippo." The little fox demon replied. "What are you doing here all by yourself? There could be demons…other than me that is."

Rin giggled. "I'm not alone. I just came here to see what all the shouting was about."

Shippo scowled. "That was Inuyasha and Kagome arguing. After he hit me over the head." He paused. "Wait, you're the one that Kagome and Inuyasha mentioned awhile ago. The one that travels with Sesshomaru."

Rin smiled again. "Yep."

Shippo looked nervous for a moment, then relaxed when he realized that Sesshomaru wasn't anywhere nearby. "Hey, do you want to play? I wanted to stay away from the others while Kagome deals with Inuyasha anyway."

"Okay." Rin replied.

For the next few hours, Rin and Shippo played various games, including spinning tops and Rin requesting various things for Shippo to transform into. Soon, however, there was a shout.

"Rin! Rin! Where are you?" Came Jaken's panicked voice.

"Oh! I need to go!" Rin exclaimed.

"Me too. I think I hear Kagome. Bye." Shippo responded, running off.

"Bye!" Rin called over her shoulder, as she ran as well, straight out of the small forest and over to where Jaken was running around, stressed out.

Jaken scurried over to her. "Where were you?"

"I was playing and picking flowers." Rin replied. She was trying hard not to burst out laughing. Jaken was still wearing flower chains, and apparently hadn't noticed yet.

Rin looked past Jaken, and smiled. "Lord Sesshomaru!"

Sesshomaru came over towards them, stopping near Ah-Un, while showing no reaction what so ever to Jaken's flowery appearance. "We're leaving." Was all he said.

Rin ran over to Ah-Un after Sesshomaru as he began to walk away. Rin grabbed a bouquet of flowers and scrambled onto the dragon's back. As soon as she did, Ah-Un began to walk.

A few minutes of silence passed, before…

"What the…?! Why am I covered in flowers?"

Hmm...I liked writing this chapter. And again, yes, I know it was pretty short. Anyway, review if you like and leave some kind of comment. I'd appreciate it. I haven't written Shippo in a story before, but I might make another chapter where Rin runs into him if this turned out all right.

Although, the next chapter will have more Sesshomaru in it...I'm still pondering about what to write. So again, if anyone has suggestions, let me know in a review or a PM.

So, until the next chapter, thanks for reading and/or reviewing!
