What's this? Did I just write a new chapter already? Only a few hours after my other one? And Did I just post it at 2 AM?

Yes. Yes I did.

"Daddy Daddy Daddy!" A small voice chirped out, forcing the great copy-nin to crack open his good eye from where he had been laying down on the couch, looking into the wide and excited pale green eyes of his three year old daughter. "Look it- Look at what I can do!" She gasped, quickly moving back a few tiny steps, looking to her father every few seconds to confirm that she held his undivided attention.

Crouching down the toddler planted her two small hands onto the floor, and as soon as Kakashi realized what the girl was doing he was instantly tensed and sitting up, prepared to leap up and grab her before any serious harm could befall her. Karin scrunched her face up determinedly and made as if to do the neat flips she had seen her parents doing, though she ended up just sort of twisting around her planted hands in a little half circle.

"See? Did you see it? I was just like Mommy!" She cried, her face flushed with pleasure as she looked up to her father for the conformation of how incredible her stunt was. The white haired man smiled at her and nodded, internally cursing himself and Sakura for taking the child with them to watch them train. Now she was going to be trying flips and twists and anything else she could think of in an attempt to be more like her parents, which would only end with her getting hurt. And since the only way to get her to stop was for her to actually get hurt Kakashi could only watch and be there to scold her and baby her injuries.

"Yeah, Karin. But you need to be careful or else you'll just get hurt." But just like he had predicted the small girl ignored his warning and proceeded to do yet another "flip", twirling in place afterward and trying to do one of the fancy high kicks she remembered from a movie. The last stunt, however, caused her to lose her balance and stumble back, tripping over her own feet as she fell backwards and into the corner of one of the side tables.

There was a moment of silence before the girl sniffled, tears pooling in her eyes as she grabbed onto her arm, squeezing the spot that the corner had dug into accidently. With an ear shattering wail the girl threw her head back, tears streaming down her angry red face as her tiny chest heaved from the force of her screams.

"There now, didn't I warn you?" Kakashi said calmly as he pulled the small child to him, his large hands gentle as he grabbed her arm and lightly brushed over the place that she had hit, seeing the bruise that would be angrily painted on her skin soon.

"I-It h-hurts-s-s." Karin managed, her breath catching jerkily and making the words come out disconnected. Kakashi nodded sympathetically and lifted up the hem of his shirt, brushing away the girl's tears.

"I know, and that's why I told you to be careful." He told her, calming the rapid beating of his heart now that he confirmed that it hadn't been life threatening. It was just a bruise, she'd be over it in a few moments.

"I-I'm s-sorr-ry." She choked out, taking a few shuddering breaths as Kakashi smoothed back some of her short white hair.

"Nothing to be sorry about, just be more careful. Are you okay now?" The girl nodded and wiped at her face with her hands, getting rid of the last few remains of the tears.

"W-Will you play with me?" She asked, her wide and tear swollen green eyes looking up at him pleadingly. Kakashi gave into the small girl with a sigh, slipping off of the couch and sitting down beside her on the floor. The girl, not wanting to waste a single moment eagerly brought coloring books and crayons over, laying down on her stomach and watching as her father did the same with a delighted grin.

Kakashi looked down at the pages of thick, black lined printed drawings laid out before him, propping his chin on his fist as he started coloring in the princess's dress with the green crayon, glancing over to see Karin trying to color her fairy picture blue, the girl quickly forgoing the concept of lines to happily scribble away.

After Karin had grown bored with coloring she had quickly scrambled to her feet and grabbed her favorite lion and puppy puppets, wanting to put on an impromptu show for her avid audience, a show that only lasted a few giggling minutes before she threw them down and declared that she was hungry.

Happily full from a peanut-butter sandwich and an apple juice-box Karin tackled Kakashi's legs, growling playfully as the man fell backwards and onto his back, meeting the floor with a thud. Kakashi groaned in defeat as the small girl scrambled over him, his groans real at the times that Karin caught him in a few sensitive spots.

Karin giggled as she sat on top of her father, bouncing up and down on his stomach to make him laughingly call out defeat.

"Daddy Daddy!" Karin called out, pressing her hands into his chest urgently, "Make me fly like a bird!" Kakashi nodded and the girl scrambled off of him, waiting for him to bend his legs at the knees and firmly plant his feet on the ground before she leaned against his calves, holding out her hands for his.

Kakashi carefully lifted his feet off of the floor as he pulled his knees towards his chest the slightest bit, holding onto Karin's hands as his legs lifted so that he could make sure she didn't fall, releasing them when he was sure that she was steady so that she could spread her arms out to the sides, giggling as she pretended to fly, Kakashi's legs moving around a bit and delighting her.

The front door opened and Kakashi moved his head to look up at Sakura as she entered the apartment, smiling up at her upside down as Karin scrambled to abandon him and race over to her mother.

"Mommy! Mommy! Daddy and I played together! We colored and we played puppets and we-" Sakura smiled and moved towards the kitchen, depositing the bags in her hands on the counter.

"You did all of that? Really? Well, I guess you miss out on a lot when you go to the grocery store, don't you?" Karin beamed up at her and nodded, continuing to talk her mother's ear off as Kakashi came into the room, leaning back against the counter to watch the scene with amusement, chuckling when Karin hurried on out of the kitchen to go to her room, something of grave importance suddenly coming to her mind.

"So," Sakura said as she put the last of the groceries away, turning to smile teasingly at her husband, "The great copy ninja Hatake Kakashi was defeated by a child?"

Kakashi nodded and pulled a straight face, his voice grave when he spoke. "She was completely vicious. She gets it from her mother, I hear." Sakura snorted and moved past him, digging an elbow into his ribs as she passed him.

"Well, you complain now, but if I remember correctly when we made that vicious little hellion you seemed perfectly happy with how I was." She sent him a taunting look over her shoulder before she disappeared into their room to change into something more comfortable, her silent laughter ringing out as Kakashi's lips twitched.

"Oh, I wasn't complaining." He assured her, "And I never called her a hellion. That one was all you." He said, chuckling when the pink haired woman childishly stuck her tongue out at him.

I just finished reading a KakaSaku Fanfic and it was okay, but it had this adorable Kakashi daddy scene at the end of it which inspired me to write this at TWO in the FRIGGEN MORNING.

Kathyyyyy. Let me sleeeeep.

Oh, and the bird game is something that I loved to do when I was tiny and like to do with my little cousins. We always called it the superman game or the airplane game, but since the have neither Superman nor airplanes in the Narutoverse, the kid gets to be a bird.

I am death. (Goes and dies from pure exhaustion)
