Inuyasha crossover Kuroshitsuji
Chapter 3: Their Debut
Shortly after Kagome and Sesshoumaru have arrived in London, it did not take long before rumors and news of their arrival started spreading amongst the many classes of people there. However, Sesshoumaru was called away on urgent business as he travelled back to Japan with certain urgency, something in regards to his lands and the rightful owner of it. The many things that those mortal human wants, everything that their grubby hands could take hold of, and most of them are unwilling to let go of it even in their death, and Kagome was very sure that they will be easily persuaded by Sesshoumaru to return it back to him, leaving Kagome alone in London on her own.
It was not all that often that she was left on her own being used to having Sesshoumaru as a companion also a confidant in some ways. Kagome sighed inwardly as she looked out the from the second level of her townhouse, its was something smaller than a mansion, but well enough for her to live in on her own. Sesshoumaru had been shopping with her for a place of her own, even helping her furnish it to her satisfaction just before he left for Japan on his trading ship.
Kagome had successfully avoided human contact, choosing to have youkai staffs or staffs of supernatural beings to work for her and Sesshoumaru. It was a lot easier this way, without their need to hide their identity or even to fake a few numbers of deaths that they had done so when in France. Her face was never shown to anyone, always heavily masked by a thick layer of veil or gone out for a ride within the safety of the carriage where no one could see her. This went on for a while even after Sesshoumaru had return, until about the mid 18th century where Kagome finally emerge with a formal Debutant Ball to introduce Sesshoumaru and herself formally to the members of the Ton, and everyone were dying to get an invite to such an exclusive event.
The night her debut for the first time caused a bigger stir than expected as she came down the grand staircase on the arms of Sesshoumaru as he too caused quite an stir amongst the many female gathered, both young and old. Kagome clutched onto his arm a little tighter as though in reassurance of her being there for him like he had for her for the past few centuries. They had been through this countless of times, all these frivolous parties of dancing and drinking, it is a miracle she thought at times that her liver had not yet fail her, but then again, she is long-lived, just like Sesshoumaru himself is.
That night, she caught the eyes of another demon, one that is somewhat different from that kind, as his eyes never left her, amused, and somewhat hungry as it sparkled with interest at his new found interest. He noted of her dress, and how daring it is, very French indeed, and not overly vulgar or distasteful in dressing as compared to many Ladies that he had seen who dressed themselves rather horribly at times to try and capture someone of higher standing and status to elevate themselves. No, she was different, there was a certain purity in her that he wanted to slowly corrupt and indulge in, but having discovered her only now, was of a bad timing for him for he has already made a contract with another boy.
Her dress of an off-white, almost ivory cream like, with a secondary color of royal blue, decorated simply with blue roses and pale gold lining as it caught the light with each move that she made. Her hair was teased and curled to the latest mode, accessorized simply with just a few blooming blue roses at the side of her hair. She descended the stairs, and like the blue roses that she wore on her, she is one of a kind, of soul of pure that it sings out to him, tempting him of so many things, and many other thoughts and things that he would like to do to corrupt that purity in her.
Sesshoumaru, seemingly sensing the thought, was quick in almost pinpointing it out as his eyes sharply surveyed everyone. Stopping to meet eyes of red rubies which showed interest and amusement even, not one bit settling well with Sesshoumaru as he lead Kagome down the stairs where they were soon swamped by many who would like to be well acquainted with them before the night was over.
He lay there awaiting within the shadows, biding his time.
