Chapter 295: Driven
The hunting lesson posed no real challenge. A child could capture roosting fowl. It occurred to Sesshoumaru that his brother had likely been a child when he developed the technique, driven by necessity and neglect.
The night passed, and Shippo brimmed with new confidence.
Inuyasha eyed the eastern sky. “Sun’s coming. I should get back.”
“To get Kagome?” asked the kit.
“Later today, runt. But there’ll be….”
Sesshoumaru stilled as the first gossamer touch of Kagome’s return reached him. She was back, and her thoughts were for him. He was already in motion, flying like an arrow to its mark.

After the last chapter comes out I’m gonna read the whole thing from start to finish in one go. It has its own type of joy when in serial form and when complete. Looking forward to savoring it! Thank you for the gift of this story!
