Chapter Two- Imitation
“Hee-yaaaah!!!” Growling fiercely, Shippo launched himself at the sapling, flashing his teeth. The battle was terrible, if miniature, and the kitsune was absorbed, practicing the moves he had seen his companions make so often.
So immersed was he that he didn't notice the pair watching from behind. Though Kagome thought it adorable, Inuyasha was impassive, making occasional critiques.
“His left side's open... Too fancy, not enough speed...”
Suddenly, Shippo pricked his arm, leaping forward with bloody claws. Kagome gasped, but Inuyasha's eyes grew wide. After a moment, the miko chuckled.
“Really, Inuyasha... imitation is the sincerest form of flattery.”
