Six years after Kagome's death . . . .
Inuyasha leapt easily from tree to tree, teeth bared growling faintly.
Where'd she get to, the little brat. He snarled. Ever since she turned four, she's just gotten weirder and weirder! This all your fault Kagome. You died and left me to take of her! Sighing. The first time father, sighed, picturing his little girl.
She was four, racing into his arms trying to hide from the thunder storms that sometimes came through. He was cuddling her slightly, as they lay in the bog spacious branches of the God-Tree.
She was five, being present with her first haori a brilliant red like his, smiling with joy, and he knew his eyes held lovelight in them. Sihi She would later bleach it till it turned a bright pink, much to his and Sesshoumaru's horror. He smirked slightly, remembering the expression on Sesshoumaru's face when Shinju came strutting in, looking flamboyantly feminine in brilliant pink. Course, he'd promptly screamed at her for about twenty minutes until. . . .
"Daddykins?" (*a/n: Sorry, but I had to give her something cute to call him)
"WHAT?!"
"Sit!" WHUMP! Once again, Inuyasha met his good friend mister dirt. He really wanted to end the friendship, and thought he had but, NOOO, Shinju had inherited that ability!
Sighing, Inuyasha sniffed the air again, this time catching his daughter's familiar smell. "Got you, you little brat." he snarled quietly as he took off through the trees. . .
****
"Rin" asked the dogged ear girl, rubbing a rag over her ears, "Are you sure this'll work?"
"Rin is sure!" Run said grinning. "It came from Shinju's mother's time."
"Who'd ya steal if from?" Shinju asked as she finally quite rubbing her ears, and gently pulled the rag revealing their new, brilliant pink color.
"Shinju's ears look flamboyantly feminine indeed!"
"Rin-Rin! Where'd you get the_ what's is called again?"
"The carton said it called 'Dye,' and Shinju's grandmother bought for Rin."
"Well, as long ya didn't steal it!" Shinju said, cheerfully twitching her ears, the light shining off the brilliant pink fur, and catching the feint swishing of someone traveling through the trees, a familiar smell hit her ultra-powered nose, and she smiled
"Daddykins is coming!"
"Rin wonders if Shinju's father will be very pleased with her ears?"
"Not any more then Uncle Sesshy will be. He's coming too!"
"Good! Sesshoumaru-sama!" It didn't take too long for Inuyasha to show up, leaping dramatically from the trees, and landing right in front of Shinju, eyes burning hot coals.
"Shinju, WHERE THE **** HAVE YOU BEEN? I said_" here there was a pause as he suddenly caught sight of the brilliant pink ears, a rainbow of emotions, and none of them pleasant, crossed his face . Shinju flattened her ears against her head, and Rin plugged her ears, preparing fro the bellowing that was coming.
"WHAT THE **** DID YOU DO TO YOUR BEAUTIFUL PERFECT EARS?" He was practically screaming as he stared at the twitching ears at the top of her head.
"I didn't like them, so I improved them! And Daddykins' shouldn't curse in front of your baby!" She said, grinning in that five-year-old way, watching her father's anger build, till finally he snapped, "That's it! I absolutely forbid you to see Rin again!"
"Daddykins?"
"WHAT!?"
"SIT!" WHOMP! In split second, Inuyasha kissed the floor, and Shinju and Rin made a bolt for it, fleeing straight into the arms of his brother, who stood frozen for a minute.
Yes, just another day for Inuyasha in the wonderful world of Fatherhood.
