1. A Spider's Bite

Naraku is a natural born opportunist. He does not simply move at whim, but makes careful considerations on the benefits or consequences of his actions. Much like a spider that chooses not to immediately devour its prey. The spider enjoys toying with it first; constantly mocking his victims by dangling the possibilities of both death and escape.

Naraku smiles at the thought and recalls observing the hunt of the black widow: she releases her prey and just when the creature feels the most secure of freedom, she attacks it suddenly with a quick painful bite.

Sitting at the foot of a tree, wearing an inconspicuous pelt of baboon, he anticipates to play as well.
