"Whatcha making, Rin?"

The little girl smiled softly but continued with her task. "I'm making Lord Sesshoumaru a flower crown."

Inuyasha snorted, then leaped up with a string of curses as the grass next to him caught fire.

Shippou held out the next bloom for Rin, watching her fingers work as she finished the crown.

"Can you teach me how to do that?"

Rin's face lit up, and she eagerly passed him her leftover flowers.

"For Kagome?" she questioned.

Shippou shook his head as she showed him the first steps. "I want to thank Lord Sesshoumaru for teaching me how to hunt."
