I Do No Own Inuyasha

I have been thinking forever why Rin had not grown up a bit and after discuss it with a few authors, this idea just won't left me alone. So yeah. i might or might not add another chapter. But should I? Review please.

Rin had returned with him at the age of sixteen. She seemed happy, but Sesshomaru could not help but wondered if it were truly her choice.

She was now eighteen, yet she looked no older than an eleven year-old girl in human age.

Sesshomaru did not concern with it in the first three years he had revived her because he was not accustomed to human's growth.

However after he left Rin at the Edo Village, in order for her to learn the way of the human and give her the choice to choose between human's life and demon's, and that was when he started to notice.

Rin, though he had met her for years, she only grew a few inches. After he revived her from the dead and allowed her to travel with him, knowingly she was a human, yet she had not grown an inch after the war with Naraku had ended.

For three years, he constantly visited Rin at the human village, brought her gifts and saw to her well-being. Three years had passed and the priestess, Kagome, had returned, yet Rin was pretty much the same size as before Kagome had left.

He felt that something wasn't right, but he did not take it seriously because Kohaku, too, did not changed much. At ages of fifteen, Kohaku was still shorter than his sister when Sesshomaru came to aid with the Ne-No-Kubi demon ('Source of heads' demon in Inuyasha the special chapter, 559).

Maybe deep down he was secretly please at the fact that she had remained the same.

But then as time slowly passed by, the twins, Sango the demon slayer's daughters were gradually caught up to Rin. Rin was not very pleased with her growing process, but remained silence and Sesshomaru did not drill into it.

However, the twins were now outgrowth her, their feminism curves started to show, yet Rin only grew a little over an inch taller than before.

Her close friends, Inuyasah's gang, treated her no different from before, but she started to get weird glances and fearful whispered from the villagers that she was a demon child. People were avoiding her.

It had become awkward for her inside that once peaceful village.

Inuyasha and brought up the concern and Sesshomaru decided to offer her the choice which she took within a heartbeat.

She was now, eighteen, sitting next to Jaken, the green toad imp, and Ah-Un, the two heads dragon, laughing happily in the meadow. She was still the same little girl as he remembered, a few inches taller, but her mind was no longer that of a child. He knew she was wiser than she had led on.

After he had come to analyze everything, he concluded that it might the doing of the sword, Tenseiga. Because she was brought back from the underworld, it had slowed her growth, the same as Kohaku who was also the undead. Kohaku was still having his boy-lish looked even in his mid-twenties. Because they both had returned from the dead, and their aging process had been slowed down somehow.

Sesshomaru did not complain, really, if he were honest, he was happy. It was as if a dream came true for he did not have to lose her so soon to time.

A part of him wanted her to stay that way forever.

But even a self-centered person like himself, he wanted Rin to enjoy every expects that life could offer to her. Growing up, getting married, and having a family of her owns.

Though, to have a human family was out of the question. Humans are narrow-minded, judgmental, and would not except anything that is different from the norm.

Kohaku seemed to be doing fine since he did not stay long in one place for people to notice. He had only recently been settled down and married to a woman and started a family.

Rin, however, he wasn't sure if she would ever want to return to the human that all they had ever did was mistreated her.

He wasn't sure if she chose to come back to him because it was the only choice, or was she truly happy to come back to him.

But either way, he would welcome her nonetheless and made sure she had a carefree and happy life. It was his job.

Because without her sunny smiled, the world would be gloomy.
