"Okay so let's play Niko," Rin said happily clapping her hands together. "Okay so it's called tongue twisters, Red Niko, blue Niko, Gold Niko,"

Niko couldn't help but smile as she repeated the words three times fast.

"Oh wow! Niko that was great to now say it faster!"

So, the half demon began saying it faster causing Rin to giggle and laugh. Sesshomaru was of course watching the interaction between the two, but was mostly watching Niko. He rememberes her like it was yesterday when the two met.

FLASHBACK 300 YEARS AGO

Sesshomaru did not like this one bit as he reached the large gates of the Eastern lands. He was a full blooded demon who was summoned by King Nintoku, King of the Eastern lands. The double doors opened revealing the full blooded dog demon before him. In a way he looked just like Sesshomaru, accept no markings on his cheeks or a crescent moon on his forehead. He smiled brightly.

"Lord Sesshomaru you came," he says bowing as Sesshomaru scowled.

"It wasn't by choice,"

"I do apologize about that Lord Sesshomaru, I want you to meet your future Queen," he says ushering him inside the house.

Sesshomaru sighed as he saw a young girl clinging onto her mother for dear life. From what he can see she was no more than a 4 year old and not only that she smelt of that which is a half demon like his kid brother Inuyasha. Sesshomaru apst scoffed at the sight no way was he going to marry a half demon princess. He simply refused.

"No," was all he said before turning away and walking out of the house.

"Please don't go," her little voice sprung out causing the demon to stop in his tracks. "My name is Princess Niko of the Eastern Lands, I know I am small now but I want to unite our lands together to remain peaceful! I'm probably nothing but a half demon to you..... But I promise to be a very good wife in the future, I promise to never leave your side or ever disobey you, please Lord Sesshy take me as your future Queen,"

"Lord Sesshomaru, do not ever call me Sesshy again,"

"Yes Lord Sesshomaru, will you take me in consideration?"

"I will think about it once you've become of age, right now your nothing but a mere child to me," he said leaving Niko stunned before walking away for good.

END OF FLASHBACK

"So, you were only four years old when you met Lord Sesshomaru? How can your parents bestoy that upon you at a young age? That's not fair!"

"I know Rin, but our lands are in very grave danger with our people and demons alike once we unite the lands as one we will be a peaceful land,"

"If you think Lord Sesshomaru will even attempt to marry a half demon such as yourself you are wrong if anything Lord Sesshomaru and I have in common is we loathe half Demons," Jaken said causing Niko to frown.

"Jaken," Lord Sesshomaru said sternly as he glared at the Imp.

"Sorry Lord Sesshomaru," he said bowing his head down.

"Niko come," he said causing the half demon to blink before she ran over to Sesshomaru.

"Yes My lord?"

"I remember the last time I saw you, you were 4 years old and begging me not to leave. That's why I didn't recognize you at first, but I did say I would think about it once you have grown and well now your grown,"

"Yes," she confirmed hoping he would accept her proposal.

"The answer is no, I Sesshomaru a full demon does not care for half Demons, and you are a half demon. I loathe half Demons that walk around my presence, you best understand,"

"But Lord Sesshomaru please! My land is in danger especially with Naraku around! If you married me we can guarantee the safety of both our people!"

"I already said no, I think it's best to buzz off half demon you are no longer needed,"

"Lord Sesshomaru! Your being rude!" Rin acted out causing everyone to stop walking. "she has nowhere else to go! And frankly it shouldn't matter if she's a half demon, I'm a human! You keep me around! Please don't let her leave Lord Sesshomaru she did spend half her life looking for you the least you can do is let her stay,"

"Rin! What has gotten into you?!" Jaken yelled but Rin did not back down.

It's definitely one of the things Sesshomaru liked about the human, she doesn't back down, she's normally not bothering him but she really wants the half breed to stay.

"Just, stay out of my way," Sesshomaru said before leaving as Rin couldn't help but smile and grab Niko's hand.

"That means you can stay Lady Niko, come on or we'll get left behind," she said pulling her as Niko couldn't help but smile.
