Not owning Inuyasha, Rumiko Takahashi does.
Maybe I should get into depth about Seresute. She's a goddess, but not just a goddess. She's the Supreme Goddess, high above all others. The next few chapters will reveal more into her past.

"Master Jaken, Seresute, let's play a game of TongueTwister," Rin said.
"TongueTwister?" Jaken said bewildered.
"The people in the present play that game a lot. It makes me laugh," Seresute said, smiling as she walked beside Sesshomaru considering they were the adults.
"Me first. Red Jaken, blue Jaken, gold Jaken," Rin said.
"Red Jaken, blue Jaken, gold Jaken." Jaken sounded tired.
"Hey, you're pretty good," Rin said.
"For a toad," Seresute added.
"Of course," Jaken said, then Seresute's words sunk in, "What!"
"Your turn Seresute. Water Seresute, wind Seresute, fire Seresute."
"Water Seresute, wind Seresute, fire Ser-" She stopped upon feeling a strange presence.
"What's the matter Seresute?" Rin asked.
Sesshomaru stopped as well and Jaken bumped into his leg.
"Is something the matter Lord Sesshomaru?" Rin asked.
He was looking straight ahead as was Seresute. The sound of a flute was wafting through the silence. It was getting louder and louder until the person playing came into view. It was a woman. She had brown hair that was darker than Seresute's and she was wearing a pink kimono with a green robe. She approached and took the flute away from her lips. She knelt before Sesshomaru.
"It's been quite some time Lord Sesshomaru," she said.
"Who are you? An acquaintance of my master?" Jaken asked.
"Forgive me. I am Sara."
"Huh, who?" Jaken asked.
"I'm from Asano Castle. Have you forgotten it?"
"Asano Castle?" Sesshomaru said.
"The first time I saw you, Lord Sesshomaru, was at Asano Castle during the more difficult time."

Flashback
"My Lord, it seems that the enemy is planning to end the battle tonight," a soldier reported to Lord Soujo, Sara's father.
Soujo stood up. "It's been a month since the siege began. Provisions have run out and morale is low. There is no choice, but to accept death and make this our final resting place."
He turned and walked to his throne or whatever.
"Everyone, listen well! We will set fire to the castle and open the main gates," he said.
"Is there no other choice?" a soldier asked.
"Can we not preserve our dignity at least?" another piped.
"No, do not attempt to fight the enemy. Do what you must to survive."
"MY LORD! MY LORD!" a messenger yelled.
"What is it? What's happening?" he said.
"Something seems to be attacking the enemy camp."
"What do you mean?"

"What manner of beast are you?" a soldier stuttered as he watched one of his comrades get thrown away like a rag doll by a silver haired man.
"Move..." the man said in a deadly calm voice.
"Not on your life!" the soldier challenged as he swung his sword, but Sesshomaru used his whip of light to cut the blade in half and kill the soldier.
"A miracle. May be help sent by the Supreme Goddess," Lord Soujo murmured as he watched from a window at the castle.
"Father..."
"Huh? Oh, Sara. Look at that fellow down below. He singlehandedly broke through the enemy lines and is slaughtering them all."
Sara came to the window and watched as Sesshomaru swung his whip gracefully. She couldn't take her eyes off of him. Once the very last soldier was killed, he looked up at her and she gasped.

Sara stood up. "Lord Sesshomaru."
His eyes narrowed. "I don't know you." He began walking and passed her, leaving her standing there.
"Please don't go," she said, turning to him, "I want to do what I can to make your wish come true."
He stopped. "Help me...you?"
"Yes. And when I've helped you realize your desire, I only ask that you acknowledge my feelings for you."
Seresute's eyes widened. 'Feelings...for him? She loves him as well!' A bud of jealousy was planted in her heart, quickly growing.
"Hey, hey, hey. Will you stop this nonsense? There's no way someone like you can fulfill Lord Sesshomaru's wishes!" Jaken yelled at Sara.
"Jaken!"
Jaken stopped, looking at his lord. Sesshomaru turned and looked at him. "Leave her."
"Yes mi'lord."
Sara smiled. "I will fulfill your wish no matter what it takes."
He looked at her with coldness in his eyes. "Hmmm. As you please." He turned away from her.
She nodded. "Good."

She turned and walked away. As she walked past Seresute, she gave her an evil smile. Seresute didn't like her one bit. That woman was evil.
"Such a strange mortal," Jaken said, "Lord Sesshomaru, who was that odd woman anyway?"
"She sure was pretty," Rin said.
"Well, face powder does miracles," Jaken said, "Honestly, as if a mere human can help our lord."
"Are you blind Jaken? That was no human," Sesshomaru said, walking away.
"It wasn't?" Both Rin and Jaken were surprised.
"It was a demon, no, perhaps she was originally human. But never quite became a full demon. I'm sure Seresute knew it too," he said looking at her.
Her eyes were empty, just blue orbs without any light in them whatsoever. When he spoke her name, she snapped back to reality.
"What?" Jaken said.
"Let's go," Sesshomaru said to the group.
"Right," Rin agreed as they started walking again.

After about an hour or two of walking, they took a rest. Rin and Jaken were playing while Sesshomaru sat underneath a tree enjoying the shade. Seresute sat with Sora, who was lying down, her hooves underneath her. Seresute was pondering what Sara had said.
'I only ask that you acknowledge my feelings for you...I only ask that you acknowledge my feelings for you...I only ask that you acknowledge my feelings for you...'
Seresute shook those words out of her mind and felt a sick sadness well up inside her. Despite her perfection, there was only one flaw. If she fell in love with someone and someone else loved them, she would feel jealousy. That was one of her weaknesses. Rin noticed Seresute's sad expression as she patted Sora's neck and went over to her.
"Is something the matter Seresute?" she asked.
"It's nothing," she replied.
"Something's bothering you. Please tell me."
Seresute sighed. "Rin...have you...ever been in love?"
"Yes."
"I've just been thinking about what that Sara woman said about her feelings for Sesshomaru. You see, when she said it, it felt like my heart had just been torn. It hurt so badly and I couldn't do anything except watch as she passed me. She gave me an evil look when she passed and it's been haunting me. And I-"
"Seresute, you love Lord Sesshomaru, don't you?" Rin asked quietly.
Seresute's eyes began to glisten. "Yes, it's true. I love him."
"Come on, let's play. Maybe you'll feel better," Rin said.
"Alright," she said, standing up and walking with Rin to the stream nearby where Jaken was waiting.
They got in the water and Seresute had to lift her kimono up slightly so it didn't get wet. They had a water fight and when Seresute lifted her foot to splash Rin, she slipped and fell in. She came up wet and dripping.
"So much for staying dry," she said sarcastically.
Rin was laughing so hard her sides were hurting and Sesshomaru had an amused smile on his face.
"Don't worry, I'll have you dried off," Jaken said as he picked up his staff.
"No, no, no," she said, but it was too late.
"Staff of Two Heads!" Jaken said and Seresute was engulfed in flames.
When they went out, Seresute was covered in anime fire scorches. She was not looking happy. Rin gasped and Sesshomaru laughed. Seresute walked toward Jaken and picked him up.
"You damn toad. I didn't want to be dried off. Now you burned me!" she yelled as she took the staff and used it to burn HIM.
Sesshomaru was howling at that and Seresute used the water from the stream and her powers to send a jet of water at him and soak him. He didn't look amused, but Rin and Seresute were laughing. After that, they resumed their water war.
