Thanks for the reviews! The next chapter will be a suggestion I received. It'll be up within two days.

Rin was waiting for Sesshomaru and Jaken to return, so she looked for something to do to pass the time while she waited. She was at a beach and Ah-Un was sleeping nearby on the sand, far enough away to not get wet from the waves lapping up from the sea.

Rin decided to go play in the shallows, enjoying the cool breeze that had just picked up. Rin looked down, something catching her attention. There was a glint in the water.

For the next hour, Rin walked up and down the shallows, picking up shells, and a few small pearls.

Eventually not seeing anything else, she walked away from the shore and went to go sit down next to Ah-Un, sorting through what she had picked up.

Several small shells and four tiny pearls. Rin stared at the pearls, trying to decide what to do with them.

Sesshomaru returned a few hours later, and watched silently as Rin walked up to him.

"Lord Sesshomaru! Look what I found," Rin said, showing the four tiny pearls to the silent demon.

Sesshomaru stared at the pearls, wondering vaguely if some sea demon were missing some pearls. Something was placed in his hand, and Sesshomaru stared down at the tiny pearl Rin had placed there, "…" Sesshomaru turned his attention back to Rin, and saw her give Jaken another of the pearls. Rin then went over to Ah-Un and put another pearl into a bag on the saddle.

Rin put the remaining pearl into her own pocket and turned to smile at Sesshomaru, "There! Now we all have one." Rin saw Sesshomaru turn and walk away, and quickly grabbed Ah-Un's reins, to get the two-headed dragon to follow.

A few minutes of silence passed as the group walked, when Rin noticed Sesshomaru staring at the pearl in his hand. Rin smiled happily when she saw him put the pearl into a pocket. Rin sang softly as they walked, while Jaken wondered what the big deal about a pearl was.

Hmm, clueless Jaken amuses me. I didn't remember why I wrote this one, but I liked it anyway. I apologize for any choppiness in the chapter.
