Rin patted Ah and Un on the head while Jaken watched very bored as she pampered the two headed mount. When would Sesshoumaru-sama return? He was sick and tired of watching this foul child. He had been gone a for more than a day since they found the remains of Inu Yasha's last battle. Ah and Un stopped the pur-like noise it was making. One head stuck it's head up as though it had heard something and was curious, the other remained low to the ground and growled. "What is it Ah? Un?"
Rin turned and saw a very pretty woman. She had black and red hair and clothes a red mark adorned her forehead it was a cresant opening down with a sword through it. She approached Rin and the mount calmly. "Shh," she said calmly and the mount whimpered and lowered it's heads. "Good boys."
"Who are you?" Jaken said leaping up waving the staff, she looked like that miko woman with Inu Yasha, but it couldn't be her.. not with the youki he sensed.
The woman smiled, "There's no need to be so violent." She swiftly took the staff and hit Jaken over the head with it. She turned to Rin and smiled genuinely, "I am Tsukinoshi."
"Are you a youkai?"
"Hmm?"
"Only Youkai and warlords have scary names like that, and Rin thinks you're too pretty to be a warlord, so you must be a youkai like Sesshoumaru-sama."
Heh, I knew it, that toad is with Sesshoumaru... how interesting he has a little human pet. "Rin? Is that you're name?"
"Hai!" Rin clapped her hands together happily, "Would you like some flowers?"
"You know what? Sesshoumaru sent me here to show you a great place to gather flowers? Would you like to go?"
The girl smiled brightly, then stopped, "How do I know he sent you?"
"Do you recognize this?" She asked pulling out tokujin.
"Woman where did you get that!?" She bashed Jaken again with the staff, Rin giggled.
"That's Sesshoumaru-sama's sword!"
"That's right, he gave it to me so that you would know it was ok to go with me."
"YAY!"
Tsukinoshi picked up the girl her eyes flashed blue-gray for an instant and Kagome's smile came through at the girl. "Let's go then shall we?" She turned to Jaken her eyes once again silver, "When he returns make sure you tell Sesshoumaru-sama that this Tsukinoshi decided to babysit Rin for a while." She flashed him a wicked grin that Rin did not see.

"Jaken, where is Rin?"
Now would be the perfect time to lie and get rid of the human brat, but if he was caught lying... Better to tell the truth, besides the woman had the Toukujin. "AH! Sesshoumaru-sama! A woman came, she had your Tokujin! She took Rin and this Jaken was helpless to stop her! Please forgive this poor Jaken."
"Which way did they go?"
"West and a little north I think." Sesshoumaru walked toward his mount, "Umm.. Sesshoumaru-sama?"
"What is it?"
"She said her name was Tsukinoshi."
Sesshoumaru stopped and stared at Jaken.
