(1)From The anime Inuyasha: Sesshomaru leaves Rin in a forest near a village with Jaken and A-Un Rin starts getting board and wonders off.
(2) Rin ends up just outside the forest next to a dirt road and in a small meadow. She sees a person in the distance on the road but hunched over picking stuff from the meadow, so she skips happily all the way humming over to find out what they are doing.
(3) As Rin gets closer she notices the the person hunched over is a young woman picking what looks to be grass and putting it into a make shift basket. Rin stops skipping and walks right up to the girl stepping in what little light the girl had on this very clouded day.
(4) The young woman stopped picking plants and looked up to see who was blocking her light, thinking it one of the villagers she smiled but, was caught by surprise from a girl she never seen before and the smile turned into a shocked look which made her lose her balance and flop onto her butt.
(5) The young woman blinks away her shocked expression and says,"Oh..Hello." Rin giggles at the lady,"Hi there! Are you ok?" The woman smiles and then replies,"Why yes thank you and how might you be?" Rin replies,"I'm Rin,who are you?" The woman replies back,"Why yes how silly of me to ask you first I'm sorry how rude of me. I'm Crystal Clearwater, I'm currently the priestess of this village. Are you by chance lost young one? " She says glancing back and forth to see if Rin is with someone maybe.
(6) Rin shake her head no @ the same time replying,"Eumm umm",she stops shaking her head saying,"No not really my friends are close by."
"Well that's good", Crystal replies,"For a moment there I thought...wait friends? But what about your parents, child?", she asks getting up now concerned for Rin because friends and no parents usually met something bad happened and if Rin was here now that trouble might be close by.
Rin answers Crystal all the while watching her,"My parents died,"Rin says soberly but Rin sees the concern on Crystal's face,"But you don't have to worry it happened a long time ago, so it's ok!" Crystal's face lessens into a soft sad smile,"I'm sorry to hear that Rin my parents too died when I was young." The clouds ahead start to roll together and it starts to get darker fast. Both girls look up unexpectedly and start to fill rain drops falling on their heads.
(7) Crystal grabs her basket and then Rin.Rin surprising says"Hey wait my friends!" Crystal replies, "Don't worry I'm sure they'll fine shelter somewhere, we better hurry before it's to late." Crystal takes Rin to a small shake next to a river, just down the road from where they were, and from the distance the a small village could be seen. They get in the shake just as it starts to pour. "Few that was close! See what'd I tell you!", Crystal says smiling ear to ear."Now I bet your hungry aren't ya?", she asks looking at Rin.
