Tournament of Anime
Part 1: A Friendly Sparring Match

Well, this is my first fic in the Anime Crossovers category. This story is based on the Teen Titans episode "Winner Take All". Anyway, read and then review!

It is a fair day in the woody-mountain landscape of feudal Japan. Deep in the lush forest in a spacious clearing, two figures duke it out in a mock battle. One is a 19-year-old half-demon with long white hair and dog ears wearing a red kimono. His name is Inuyasha. The other is a 20-year-old boy with black hair in a short pony tail dressed in Buddhist monk appeal with a black kimono and a purple sash. His name is Miroku. The two have been practicing in a mock kendo duel for quite some time, as both are a bit worn out. Nevertheless, they continue to fight on.

Watching on the wayside are four figures. One is a 14-year-old modern-day schoolgirl wearing a white and green school uniform. Her name is Kagome. Another is a 17-year-old girl with long black hair wearing a white and pink kimono and carrying a large wooden boomerang on her back. Her name is Sango. On her lap rests a cat-like demon with two tails, covered with yellow fur and black markings. Its name is Kilala. The last figure is a young 8-year-old fox demon with red-curly hair tied in a ponytail with a green bow, wearing a green kimono and a brown vest. His name is Shippou. All three (not counting Kilala, whom is asleep) have been cheering the two boys on.

Inuyasha has been futilely hacking away at Miroku who has countered all of Inuyasha's swings. After Inuysaha's last swing, Miroku withdraws, then takes his kendo stick and boxes Inuyasha at his sides a couple times. Inuyasha kneels down in slight pain, but takes the advantage to trip Miroku with his stick. Off guard, Miroku falls flat on his back. Inuyasha leaps up and is about to give Miroku a blow to the head; But Miroku then counter-attacks, jabbing Inuyasha in the stomach with the end of his stick. Inuyasha scurrys back in pain, clenching his stomach. Miroku then trips Inuyasha at the knees. Inuyasha falls flat on his face. Miroku, who has stood up by this time, places his foot on Inuyasha's back.

"Game" Miroku announces.

"Alright Miroku!" Shippo cheers.

"Yeah" Kagome congratulates "Good Job!"

"Oh please!" Inuyasha angrily murmurs, painfully getting up, "The monk obviously cheated! Nobody can beat me that easily!"

"Cheer up, Inuyasha" Miroku says, extending his arm to help Inuyasha up, but Inuyasha just beats Miroku's hand away. "There was a good opening there and I went for it. You need to be more careful, Inuyasha. Just because your opponent's down, doesn't mean he's beat. He still has a few moves he can pull off, even when felled."

"Yeah!" Shippo gleefully adds, "No need to be a sore loser, even if you did get your butt kicked badly!"

Unofortunatley, Shippo gets his head bopped by Inuyasha's angry fist, creating a large bump on his head.

"Owwie!" Shippo moans.

"Who asked you?" Inuyasha yells at the small fox demon. "I'm just not feeling lucky today!"

"Inuyasha!" Kagome scolds, "Don't go taking your anger out a Shippo! You should be happy for Miroku!"

"Yes!" Sango adds, "Winning isn't the only thing!"

"Feh!" Inuyasha sneers, angrily folding his arms, "Yeah, it's the only this that matters. I totally want a rematch"

"Are you sure you're up to it?" Miroku asks. "The last duel seemed a bit tiring to you"

"Of course I'm up to it!" Inuyasha retaliates, "If we are ever going to defeat Naraku and his demons, we need as much practice as we can get, tired or not!"

"I think you two should rest" Kagome suggests, "It's been a long day!"

"Rest is for weaklings!" Inuyasha replies.

"Well then you surely need it!" Shippo jokes. He then gets his head bopped again by Inuyasha, producing another bump.

"What's that supposed to mean?" Inuyasha yells at Shippo.

"Inuyasha…" Kagome yells.

She was about to say 'sit', which would have made Inuyasha magical fall face down to the ground thanks to the cursed necklace around his neck. But just then, Inuyasha and Miroku disappeared in a flash of light. Shippo, Kagome, and Sango blink in amazement.

"Okay…" Sango says, breaking the long akward silence that followed. "That was freaky."
