Unraveling Witch

Better Standing

Dedicated to Nalla6061, because I loves you ^^

A week passed and everyday was both the same and different. I woke up, got dressed, went to Rin, got her dressed, ate breakfast, meditate, archery, history about cursed creatures, more meditation, report to Sesshomaru, eat lunch, play with Rin, eat dinner, hang out in Rins room or take a bath.

Everyday someone just had to make it known that they didn't like me or Rin. Most of the times it would be me. I had been rudly bumped into but that has been it so far. I was actually surprised nothing else happened. Lord Sesshomaru has them all on a tight leash I guess. I was asleep now and wandering the halls of his castle.

I wanted to learn every nook and cranny this had to offer. It would be best to know this place should I need to get away from something quickly. It wouldn't do turning down to a dead end hall way. A place I find myself going back to every night would be the servants quarters below the castle. The place of kept up the best they could but still ran down and filthy.

It appalled me that there where people living like this. All they they spend cleaning up the castle until it shines. Then they have to slink to a shit hole. Heck, some of the demon servants work both nights and days! The very least they deserve is a clean home them damn selves! I mean, most of them are being asshole to me but this is just ridiculous. I would be moody too if I had to scrub someone elses house and never had the energy to clean my own.

I walked through the servants quarters and smiled at the children. Some slept with their parents and siblings, others slept in a dog pile almost. It was cute, but made me mad that they also had to be raised in filth. I would be out of bounds to ask Lord Sesshomaru to change anything about his castle though. I took a final good look at the servants conditions as the sun began to rise. Then I went back to my body.

Immediately I grabbed my spell book. If you want something done right you better do it yourself. I opened up Rin's door loudly. She popped up in her bed startled awake.

"Rin, today you will find Jaken and ask him everything he knows about demons of this time. Tell him Lord Sesshomaru said so. Then meditate in your room for as long as you want. Afterwards, go play in tye gardens. Just stay safe. I'm going to be attending to some business today." I instructed. She yawned loudly and frowned trying to process all that I just said.

"Okay." She finally agreed. I then left her room and flipped my book open to the page that I was looking for. At first glance I had disregarded the page but now I see the potential. It was going to be rather tedious to preform this spell over and over. I also lacked the material to make them. So I went up to Lord Sesshomaru's bed chambers and kneeled at his door. I knocked on the wood and bowed in waiting.

"What is it?" He asked opening up his door. He didn't look very happy about being disturbed in his bed chambers. I looked up at him before bowing back down.

"Forgive me for intruding on your morning but I have a special request Milord." I said.

"Explain." He ordered.

"I am in need of clay. A good chunk of it. I wish to preform a spell that I feel will benifit your castle." I said.

"In what way?" He asked. I finally looked back up at him and got back up.

"The servants quarters are filthy. They clean the castle but have no energy to clean their own living space. I wish to make this." I said turning my open book around so he can see what was on the page. He looked at the writing and finding he couldn't read it his eyes flicked down to the drawing.

"Follow." He said and I moved out of his way. He lead me back to his study and sat down. Grabbing a scroll and a brush he quickly wrote an order then held it out for me. I lifted up my hand and the scroll snapped itself into my palm. "Give it to Jaken." He ordered.
