Pint Sized! Ch. 5 
By Lunaticneko 
 
Well started working on this one and got pretty far. Although short it comes out quicker 
and easier than longer chapters.  This chapter they finally find Seshoumaru’s group. Hope 
it turned out alright. I can’t see this fic being to long… eight chapters at least. If not, not 
much more. Well enjoy. 
 
 
Ch.5 Finding Rin 
 
************************************************** *************** 
The group finished up the second fight with a youkai that day, and were now setting up 
camp. 
 
Ses shoumaru huffed. â€œDoes this happen that often.†Their progress in coverin g ground 
the last few days had been slow, and he was beginning to feel edgy. 
 
Kagome sighed. â€ œWell now that the jewels complete, it’s a little more frequent. But it’s 
not always that b ad.†
 
Inu yasha sheathed his sword. â€œDon’t you dare complain. It’s not like your of much use.†
 
“Inu yasha!†Kagome scolded. 
 
“Hey! It†™s true! I don’t see why I have to be nice to the bastard.† 
 
Kagome ran an agitated hand through her hair. â€œI know itâ€&tr ade;s frustrating for all involved, 
but try to be decent.† 
 
â€&oelig ;I don’t have to do anything.†Pointing a finger at her. â€œThis was  ;your idea to help!† 
 
She frowned it was true. â€œI understand Inu ya-†
 
“Then don’t expect anything from me!†And with that he spun on his heel and walked. 
 
Sango came over to her. â€œHey. You ok?†
 
“Yeah. He right. I know he not happy with the situation.†She was still staring where he 
been. 
 
“Stil l.†She looked down and saw Sesshoumaru by her feet who was also looking ahead. 
“He didn’t  ;need to be that harsh with you. If my presence is his problem then he should 
take it up with this Sesshoumaru.†
 
Kagome just&n bsp;looked back out of the woods. â€˜Maybe, but I did push this on him.’

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~ 
 
Inu yasha was stomping through the woods, which wasn’t doing much for him. Yes 
maybe he should have yelled at her, but it was her fault. Of course that didn’t stop the 
slight guilt from setting in. â€˜Gah! Why did he have to travel with us anyways!’ It was 
frustrating having him around leaving him always tense. And a small part was jealous. 
And not jealous in a romantic way. But having â€˜his’ frien d defend his brother really 
bothered him. 
 
 He sighed as he walked out of the thinning woods, that opened up into a field and he was 
surprised at who he saw. There sat Rin atop Ah and Uh.  Jaken, who was already in a 
protective stance, was standing in front of the beast. 
 
 He looke d at them and then sighed rubbing the back of his head. â€œ Look Sesshoumaru 
looking for you guys and is with us. Just follow me and I’ll take you to him.†
 
“Why would our Lord be with you!†Jaken squawked. â€œWhy should we believe you?†
 
â€&o elig;I don’t know! Why the heck would I want to come and get you anyways!†Jaken just 
looked offended. â€œLook he just is. Follow me and you’ll understand. I’ll let him explain 
everything.†With that Inu yasha turned and walked off. Glancing once his shoulder to 
see the still  unmoving group. â€œAre you coming or not.†
 
Jaken grumbled before following with Ah Un close behind. 
 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 
 
Kagome spotted Inu yasha and was about to call out to him when she spotted who was 
behind him. 
 
Inu yasha pointed a thumb over his shoulder at the people behind him. â€œFound them in a 
field while I was out.†
 
Sliding off Au and Un Rin frowned, turned her head left and right. â€œAnou… Where is 
Seshoumaru-sama?†
 
Kagome felt uneasy. â€œOver there.†Pointing towards the base of&n bsp;the tree. â€œâ€¦just  look 
down.†She saw when the little girl spotted him. 
 
Rin wasn’t happy. When she saw her lord she was left in near tears. The one figure she 
respected most and kept her safe was now the size of a doll. 
 
“Se-sesshoumaru-sama?â& euro; He nodded and she could help the tears that slipped out. â€œB-
but…what happ en?†

Jaken rushed past. â€œMilord! What did these fools do to you? Why to think-†
 
“Jaken. Silence.†At the moment he was mo re concerned about his nearly crying ward. 
“A dark miko by luck was able to curse me. Nothing that can’t be handled. They-†he 
gestured with his hand. â€œ are aiding in riding this Sesshoumaru of the problem.†
 
Jaken &aci rc;€œThe indignity â€¦ Weâ ;€™ll get her Milord. Even if we have to suffer by traveling with 
these cretins.“ It was that moment a well rock found Jaken’s head, leaving him with one 
last conscious thought. *Aw… things never change.*    
Rin sniffed and looked at the people she recognized from the battle with the creepy man 
that captured her. The girl in strange green and white clothing walked up to her. 
 
“Hey there Rin. Do you remember me? I’m Kagome.†The girl nodded. â€&oel ig;How about we 
go have a talk?† 
 
Rin glanced at Sesshoumaru, and he nodded. Looking back. â€œOkay.†
 
Kago me lead Rin away. Sesshoumaru waited a minute after they were out of sight to 
follow. 
 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 
 
When Kagome was sure they had their privacy she squatted down in front of Rin. â€œHey, 
you can talked to me. Why are you so upset?†She had a pretty good idea why, but knew 
it would help to talk it out. 
 
Rin rubbed at her face with her fist trying to dry the still falling tears.“ It‘s just…. he so 
strong and to see him like that. It just makes Rin sad.†She sniffed again, and then quietly 
asked. â€œWill he&nb sp;be ok?†
 
“Yes, he will.†Kagome rubbed her back. â€œ I know it hard , but he‘s still your 
Sesshoumaru-sama, just very small.  You need to be a big girl for him ok†Rin nodded. 
Kagome smiled at her. â€œI’ll do whatever it takes to get him back to normal.† 
 
Rin looked up hopeful. â€œPromise?† 
&nb sp;
Kagome grabbed her pinky with her own. â€œI promise.†
 
Silence met the two of the and Kagome’s curiosity got the better of her. â€œ H ey Rin, Why 
don’t you say I when you refer to yourself?†
 
Rin beamed. â€œBecause that’s the way Sesshoumaru-sama talks!†
 
She gave the kid a crooked smile. â€˜Aw…itâ€&trad e;s cute how she admires him.  Even if I think it

sounds c razy. Then again I know it normal for some nobles to talk that way but still.’ She 
stood up. â€œOh, that makes sense. That‘s very cool Rin.†
 
Sesshoumaru returned to camp with a light smile on his face. â€˜Rin will be just fine.’ 
 
 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 
Earlier mention Dark Miko was sitting by a creek playing in the dirt with a stick. â€˜So now 
they’re looking for me. Hmm… good luck with that. It won’t help him any.’ She sloshed 
the  stick through the water removing the image from the surface.  
 
“ This curse is proving to be the best entertainment I ever had. †she mused aloud. What a 
odd little group he surrounded himself with. She smiled at the memory of him trying to 
intimidate the strangely dressed miko by changing into his true form. The girls reaction 
was perfect, and made her chuckle. But the arrow bit had her in near tears laughing. 
‘Serves hi m right.’ She had checked in on him a few days later to see if the he hadn’t just 
left the group. But he was still there, and she was thankful for the continued 
enter tainment.  
 
She saw a lizard on a rock out of her eye,  seemly staring at her. She turned and gave it an 
odd look. â€œWhat?!†It blink and left. And with that she went back to drawing butterflies 
and stick figures of people running around on fire.  
 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 
 
When Kagome got back to camp with Rin and spotted Inu yasha leaning against a tree. 
Walking over to him. â€œHey.†She nearly whispered out. 
 
He glanced over before lookin g away again. â€œHey.†
 
She& nbsp;smiled at him. â€œThanks for being them& nbsp;here.† 
 
He shift his&n bsp;wait around. â€œYeah well what was I suppose to do leave them.†
 
â€&oe lig;I’m sorry. Your right, I pushed this on you. It just that..†
 
â€&oe lig;No. It’s ok. I know how you hate to leave people when they need help. I’m not happy 
with it, but I’ll help you. It doesn’t mean I’ll be nice to the bastard.†At her shoulder 
drooping he amended. â€œ Just maybe a occasionally.† 
 
Which made  Kagome smile and shake her head. â€œWorks for me.â&euro ; 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 
 
The group adjusted to the new members, though no one was thrilled with Jaken. So much 
abuse befell the poor told, which was usually the children’s doings. Shippou and Rin 
became fast friends. Kagome was currently sitting with her back to the tree intensely

watching the children play in the field. 
 
“Mikoâ€& brvbar;†Sesshoumau sang out evilly. 
 
‘That just&nb sp;sounds creepy.’ â€œYes&aci rc;€¦â€ she sang back, eyes still glued to the children. 
 
“ T his Sesshoumaru knows that you’ve had to seen this worm. Why is it still here?†
 
“I don&acir c;€™t know what your taking about.†Refusing to look, hoping to get away with it. 
 
Sesshoumaru frowned, then a small smile lit his face. â€œhmm. Itâ€& trade;s almost close enough to 
crawl on you.†
 
That got her to look. â€œWhat? Where?†She  ;spotted it a good three feet away, and scowled 
at him. â€œ I hate&n bsp;you, you know that.†
 
He just&nbs p;continued to smile. â€œThe feeling is mutual.†
 
Rin stared at Kagome. â€œWhat’s Kag ome doing?†
 
Shippou glanced over to see. â€œâ€¦I  ;don’t know. Looks like she playing with a bug.†
 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~XD~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 
 End! Ok I’m working on ch.6 and have it mapped out. Lets see if I can get two out in a 
night again. :P 
 
Thank you to everyone that has continued reading. Only a few chapters left to go. I’ve 
had the ending planned since the start, it’s just getting there that takes a bit. Still got a bit
