Daddy's Little Girl (A Sesshoumaru Story)
Chapter Five - Reaching
After the battle dragged out for hours, Naraku was distroyed, this time for good. Inuyasha stood panting hard, his red kimono ripped to shreads and his bare chest showing. He slammed his transformed sword into the ground and supported himself with it. Using his other hand to wipe away sweat from his brow, he turned his eyes to his left and saw Kagome, bow loaded with another arrow, just in case. She was battered and bruised from the battle, but still to stubborn to fall. To his right, Inuyasha saw Sango and Miroku standing next to Kirara who was transformed and growling g at the smoldering ground where Naraku once stood.
Behind him, he sensed his brother standing strong as ever. His shirt only slightly cut up and only a little skin showing. Inuyasha closed his eyes as his sword de-transformed and he placed it back on his hip. He turned around to stare into the faces of his battle companions. With one last sigh, he smiled his Inuyasha smile.
"We won! Naraku is gone!"
Miroku and Sango celebrated as Mioga and Shippo appeared from no where cheering. Kagome approached him and smiled as she placed an arm around his shoulder. She was weakened and needed him to support her, which he did without complaint. Inuyasha looked past Sesshoumaru and saw who battered looking girls smiling at the edge of the forest with Jaken and Rin. They smiled and waved at him before Yasmine ran out there and leaped into her father's arms in celebration. Trinity slowly walked out and stood behind her father , staring off into the distance.
"Papa..."
"Let's just go home."
Sesshouamru's voice was deep as he turned to leave, his small gang following. Back at the castle, he was resting in his study staring at a large opened book which he held in one hand. There was a knock at the door and Trinity peeked inside.
"Papa..."
"Enter."
Trinity opened the door, entered then closed the door behind her. She stood still before she saw her father wave her over. She gently walked over to him and then stood before him, staring down at her feet.
"You saw your mother?"
Trinity looked up into his eyes which were staring down at her. She nodded her head in agreement. Sesshoumaru then closed the book and handed it to her. She took it and hesitated before opening it, which rally wasn't a book but a secret box. Inside the back cover was a cut out which held in it a real petrified pink dragon fly that hung on a silver chain. On the other side, was a painting of her mother and her father. A skilled painted captured her beauty and his strength beautifully.
"What is it?"
Trinity asked as she gently fingered the dragon fly.
"It belonged to your mother. She never took it off. Before you were born, she wanted to give it to you when you were older. I guess now is a good time."
Trinity removed the necklace and clipped it around her neck. She turned to the left and stared at her reflection in a window. She smiled. Behind her Sesshoumaru approached and placed a hand on her shoulder.
"Your just like your mother..."
"Funny... she said I was just like you."
His caught Sesshoumaru off guard, but he recovered.
"Oh...?"
"Yeah, she said I have your strength, your persistence, your personality and your stubbornness..."
Trinity smiled as she spun around and closed her eyes. Sesshoumaru smiled small and looked at the scar over her eye. She looked just like her mother. Before Sesshoumaru could respond, a knock was heard at the door. Rin appeared and Sesshoumaru stepped aside to allow his daughter to run off. turning back around, he looked out the window and swore he saw a dragon fly flutter by the window.

A/N - Now let's get something clear. The reason it's going to take Sesshoumaru forever to get to his daughter is because I'm using that slow motion technique as he runs to her remembering the past. Okay? Good!
