Disclaimer: I do not own Inuyasha, but I do own this story.
Summary: It's been 2 years since Rin's aunt and uncle took her away to rule Eastern Lands. War has broken out between the Northern Tribes, who are seeking to expand their lands, will Rin and Sesshomaru be able to reunite to regain the lands?
Chapter 1
The messenger came in the middle of the night with bad news.
"The invaders have taken hold of our most northern cities. They left no survivors and are steadily moving south as we speak."
"Have the troops surround the castle and the central city." Rin's uncle ordered.
"No, we must protect my people! Send the troops to the north and evacuate the villages." Rin instructed.
The messenger left and Rin started walking towards her chambers.
'My troops are outnumbered against these northern invaders. I'm going to need some help.' Rin thought as she watched a servant walk towards her.
"Lady Rin, your uncle is holding a council meeting shortly." The servant said as she walked away.
Rin ran to her room and pulled out a piece of parchment. She started to write a letter when her good friend, Akari, came into the room.
Akari was a dog-demon and had been friends with Rin as soon as Rin had moved into the Eastern Palace.
"Hello, Rin! What are you doing?" Akari asked.
"Akari, I need you to give this to Lord Sesshomaru in the Western Lands immediately. Oh … and take this." Rin held out a ruby necklace that she had just taken from around her neck," This will give the proof he needs."
Flashback
"Happy 15th birthday, Rin." Sesshomaru handed her a small box. Rin opened the box anxiously. She gasped as she pulled out the beautiful ruby necklace.
She put it on and ran and gave Sesshomaru a hug. She quickly pulled away realizing what she had just done. Rin started blushing uncontrollably.
"Thank you my Lord. It's very beautiful!" Rin said.
Flashback Ends
"Sure Rin!" Atari left immediately. Rin gave a deep sigh.
" I wonder what you'll say." Rin said to herself out loud.
"Who?" came a voice from the door.
"No one, Sasuke. I was just thinking" Rin walked passed the man her uncle wanted her to marry. She headed to the meeting closely followed, maybe a little too closely for Rin's comfort, by Sasuke.
------------------------------------------------- Sesshomaru ----------------------------------------------------------
Sesshomaru was sitting at his desk looking at papers when there was a knock at the door.
"My Lord, the northern invaders have taken over our northern cities." Jaken exclaimed.
Sesshomaru didn't care about the villages, he rarely travelled since Rin left, but he did mind that someone was taking over his lands.
He got up to leave and he heard a knock at the door. He opened it to find a dog-demon standing outside holding a letter.
He glared down at her, " Who are you, and what do you want?"
"My Lord, my name is Akari and I am to deliver this letter to you from Lady Rin.
Sesshomaru was quite surprised to hear from Rin, but he didn't show it. He took the letter from Akari. He read it over quickly before calling for Jaken.
"Jaken, get Ah and Un ready, we're going to the Eastern Lands." Sesshomaru said.
"Yes, my Lord!" Jaken quickly ran away.
