Daddy's Little Girl (A Sesshoumaru Story)
Chapter Three - Three Years Earlier
Snow flakes fluttered to the ground and added in the covering which blanketed across the lands of Japan. From a distance, a speck of pink could be seen laying in the snow, silvery hair disappearing above her head Flakes that happened to fall into the waiting mouth of the demonic princess found a short lived life as she licked her lips and devoured the small frozen rain drop. He smacked her lips once more and open her golden eyes. The sky was pure white and the matching snow flakes flutered atop of here. Her pink kimono top lay out flat as he stretched her arms out. Her matching pants sprawled out as she began to make a snow angle.
"Trinity..."
Trinity sat up quickly at the sound of the distant voice. She scanned the yard around her but saw no one. He took one last look before her vision was cut off. Her first action was to grab the monster holding her but when she grabbed his arms to flip him over her, her hands were burned. She screamed as loud as she could. Before she could scream for more help, a hand was placed over her mouth and lifted her into the air. Before long, she felt her feet get lifted from the cold snow and hosted her onto their shoulder. She continued to kick and attempt to free herself but her attacker was stronger.
She took a quick sniff of the air before she caught whiff of a familiar sent. Before she knew what was happening, she felt her body get launched off the shoulder and then was caught in mid air. she opened her eyes and blinked as she looked up into the face of her father.
"Papa?"
Sesshoumaru glanced down at her quickly before placing her back on the ground gently.
"Stand back."
His voice was colder then usual and she obeyed. Standing a few feet behind him, she watched as her father bolted towards her attacker with his hand on his swords. Within seconds, he held his sword in his handed attacked the attacker. Trinity watched as the monster, who happened to be a form of bird demon, fought back. Sesshoumaru pulled out his second sword and caught the demon off guard. With one quick swipe with each sword, the demon fell to the ground and then disappeared in the snow.
Hesitating only a moment more, Sesshoumaru returned his swords to their places and turn dot face his daughter. Over her right eye was a thin long cut that was slowly dripping blood onto her pale face. She stared as her father approached her and knelt down. Cupping her face in his hand, he examined the cut and then wiped it off with his cloth which hung from his armor.
"Papa, who was he?"
Trinity asked as Sesshoumaru rose to his feet and escorted Trinity back to the safety behind the castle walls.
"A demon of the north. That is why I told you to stay inside the walls. your safer here."
Trinity stopped walking as Sesshoumaru continued. He stopped a few feet later and looked over his shoulder. Trinity looked down at the snow.
"When can I grow up and be able to leave the walls on my own, un escorted and un watched?"
"When you can fully protect yourself from attackers such as him."
Sesshoumaru pointed with his finger at he location the demon once lay. All that remained was a spot of bright red blood. Trinity looked at the blood on the snow and then back at her father. When she looked up she saw Sesshoumaru was closer to her, right in front. He knelt back down on one knee and placed a hand on her shoulder. They were eye to eye.
"I just want you to be safe. When you are ready to leave the safety of these walls alone, I will let you."
"Promise?"
Trinity smiled and wrapped her arms around her father. She could tell he was no ,longer angry at her and things would be fine.
"Even when you do leave, I will still protect you. That I can promise."
Sesshoumaru stood back up as the two headed back inside behind the castle walls where they were met by Rin and Jaken.
BACK TO THE BATTLEFIELD
It was now twenty seconds since Trinity fell. Sesshoumaru was just inches from her side as he bolted quickly across the terrain. Behind him, he could sense the battle was increasing and that his half bread of a brother was keeping Naraku at bay. Sesshoumaru's eyes glanced over his shoulder as saw for a brief second as Inuyasha sent Naraku into a wall. Taking revenge for attacking his own daughter. Sesshoumaru's eye glanced back at his own daughter.
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!
