Inuyasha crossover Kuroshitsuji

Chapter 11: Fleeting

The fight between the two beings in the night carried on for what seem like forever, neither was satisfied with the outcome and it was coming more intense. However, in Undertaker's mind, he know that he would have to lay claim to Kagome before the other or sent her to a place where no other being would ever find her. He knew that the demon had long set his sight on her, and it did not really matter much even if he was still under contract with another. The Undertaker was not about to let go what he already somewhat lay claim to, and even more so to a demon like him who he does not approve of from the very beginning.

He had found the way for her to return a while back, and he had been withholding that information back from Kagome itself. It was hard to let her go, especially when there might be a chance that he will never be able to see her again. Or perhaps that she might have been taken away from him just as quickly. With Kagome beside of him, it was a form of reassurance to himself that she was still his, and a way for him to chase away other potential suitors, predators and enemies. It was his way of protecting her, and he is a person that is fiercely protective of what he had set his sights upon.

Their fight, there was hardly even and end to it as they continued on despite of the rising sun or that there were other people soon to be awakening. They however continued ignoring them, their fight intensifying as injury dealt to the other party became more apparent all over their body and clothes. Though they heal fast, however they did not give each other the chance to, and persisted with their attack. Sebastian had since gotten stronger, and Undertaker not wanting to reveal certain things yet, was holding back the many new things that he was interested in trying out against the demon butler.

However their fight were disrupted with the bustling of the morning as both demons seemingly disappeared in the midst of a fight. Undertaker was reluctant when he got back to Kagome's side, now seeing that he had no other choices in keeping her safe. Keeping her by his side though was desired, but now he sees that sending her back was the best of plans, and away from others like Sebastian. He watches her sleep peacefully, lifting the spell that bounded her into a sleep similar to that of Sleeping Beauty as Undertaker watched her stirred and awaken slowly.

"Morning," he said softly watching her awake as she looked up at him with sleep still in her eyes.

Undertaker helped her that day, watching her and being by her side for the last time. When nightfall, he will be sending her back whilst she sleeping. For now, he would have to be contented just watching her and remembering her as she is now. His chest thumped heavily at the thought of an unsure future of seeing her again, there are too many other factors that he foresee obstructing in his way of seeing Kagome, but was not going to be that easily deterred. Kagome enjoyed just seeing that Undertaker was there to help her and by her side, however she could not help but note the certain sadness and anxiety that were lurking in his eyes. It made her heart ache, as she thought of what she could do to perhaps cheer him up that night once she has closed up her teahouse.

Undertaker watched as Kagome closed up earlier than usual, finding it odd, but he helped her about to hurry up the process. And then she told him that she had been meaning to go watch the theatre with him. He had hesitated, knowing well of the threats of going to the theatre with her, especially if they should accidentally meet up with another undesired person or with a particular Phantomhive butler. Though being that this was their last day together, Undertaker acceded to her request. They were dressed simply, going to play that was right in the district where the average would visit, and the performers according to Undertaker, were just as good as the upper crust ones.

His eyes that night were not on the play but watching Kagome, escorting her just about everywhere, prolonging the time and wanting to memorize her every expressions and actions until it was all engraved deeply into his head. They shopped along the streets where vendors had mini setups and kids were out to play, some to work and steal some money from the aristocrats that were wandering in their side of town to entertain themselves with cheap whores and many other things that were to be kept under wraps. He wanted her to thoroughly enjoy herself as the Undertaker acted unlike himself that day being subserviently and accommodatingly hers to drag about that night.

The time that they spent that night was short and fleeting, and soon it was time to bring her back to her residence, and her own time. And he felt the need to hold her back, however the more time she spent here the danger increases. Reluctantly, he watches Kagome, waiting for when the drugged tea to take effect on her. He fingered the simple necklace that he had bought her when she was not looking, watching it as he waited. It was already made magical by him, a form of safety so that she would be kept safe and also a form of guiding light for himself should he ever survive to the original time period of which she had told him about. He worries still, what if she were to disappear or die before he could get to her, how long would it be next to find where her soul had gone to.

His face was grim, his acid yellow green eyes seemed to glow eerily in the darkness. Searching for Kagome as he saw her slumped over the table in her room with tea spilled over the table top and dripping onto the floor. He picked her up, cradling her body closely to his as he took in her warmth and scent one last time before placing her in bed. The silver chained necklace from which dangled the stone that was closely similar to his own eye color after being made magical was placed and worn around her neck so that he knows she will awake with it. He would never know of her decision in whether or not she would accept him, however he was glad that at least he would have a way of finding her again no matter what. It would just take a few hours for the essence of his own magic to be seeped and absorbed into her, but of course the necklace was something else that he hope she will be constantly wearing. It was a wistful hope on his end, however the essence of his magic and protection should seep into her and with that, he place a goodbye kiss upon her lips, his reaper scythe appeared as he used it in the spell that will bring her back to the time in which she belonged to.

When he was to see her again was another issue, but now he would have to face he issue to erasing her existence in this time starting with the teahouse that she had worked so hard in creating and later, the demon butler himself.

To Black Dragon Mistress
Well I guess you could say that Chinese is supposedly to be my mother tongue, however English seem to have taken that spot here in my country. Well I guess it might end to be like a hit and go thing in the next chapter from what I can tell? Though if you do like Ouran High, I do have a mix in of Sebastian/Kagome/Kyoya pairing under the title of "Open Mind". =]

I thought that my plot would be something common or found easily everywhere, though I'm glad to know that you enjoy it!

Though who knows, I might do a little twist of an ending. I hope that you enjoy this new chapter and have a great weekend!
