Chapter 21: Informed Noble
Ok guys so the other day we left off with the vision of the first WayWard. They were a duo named Adonis and Andrea. Andrea was the one who lived to serve, and Adonis was the one who lived to nap. Lets continue the vision and afterwards it will still be in Ciel's P.o.V.
Now back to the story!
-Continuing Vision-
"Your Majesty! Your Majesty please help me!" Andrea ran into the throne room of the King of Shinigami, aka Undertaker.
She was covered in blood and her hair was every where. Undertaker stood up and practiclly ran over to Andrea when she fell over.
"What happened?" He demanded and Andrea actually let out a choked sob. She was the tough one who didnt bitch and moan, -that title belonged to Adonis- so of coarse Undertaker was shocked to see tears stream down her dirty and blood stained face. "Lady Lilith! She...she took Adonis! She said she would...she would..." Thats when she started to cry.
A woman in a simple purple dress and a basin walked in and she gasped at the scene. The woman had spiked short fire red hair and pale snow white skin. "Mistress Andrea!" She yelled, dropping the basin and running to the woman. Undertaker didnt mind the intrusion, the woman was Andrea's 'girlfriend'. This woman was Tsunara Litan and in the future was Undertaker's wife and Titania's mother. But thats a diffrent story for a diffrent time.
Tsunara used sorcery to read Andrea's mind. For some reason Undertaker couldnt, the King of mind reading people called him, but Andrea wasnt techinaclly alive. She was just clay and water mixed into a concotion of sorcery and magic.
"My King, Andrea has informed me on some very...disturbing... news you should probably call a meeting for." Undertaker frowned and helped the two women up. He was serious now. "Tsunara I need you to set it up for me then. I cannot trust any of my other advisors. Call on King Medias King Jirou and Princess Takara at once. Use a direct line spell." Tsunara curtsied with a quick "Yes, My King." and ran out of the room lightning fast.
Another time lapse, and all but Lilith sat in the council room while Tsunara began to explain what Andrea saw. Andrea sat right behind Tsunara, still weak but wanting to fullfill her duties.
"Lady Lilith called upon Mistress Andrea and Master Adonis and said that she needed them to assassinate King Jirou for her. Obviously they declined and Lady Lilith threantened to kill Princess Takara and so that made Mistress Andrea attack and claim Lady Lilith a traitor. Lady Lilith used a powerful spell and planned on killing Master Adonis to torture Mistress Andrea. Instead Lilith used the spell she had for Mistress Andrea on Master Adonis and put him under her control. If she doesnt do as what Lady Lilith commands, Master Adonis takes one more step towards an early death."
"Lilith changed her command and ordered Mistress Andrea to kill My King, and still Mistress Andrea refused. In anger Lady Lilith sent an attack towards her which Master Adonis blocked, somehow regaining his free will for a moment of time. Lady Lilith exclaimed that she would have the prophecy of Roxanna take place in reality. She said to prevent it she would need a personal meeting with My King, alone with no guards and no servants."
"Is that all Tsunara? Make sure you arent leaving out any details." Undertaker murmered softly, his piercing eyes stunning the girl. She nodded and turned to Andrea. "Mistress? Is that all you must tell the King?" Andrea thought about it and then reached her small hand and wrapped it around Tsunara's wrist. Tsunara's eyes turned a deathly red and then flashed back to her pretty amythest. Titania's eyes. Tsunara's mouth slipped into a frown and Andrea nodded.
"Mistress has told me to tell you, My King, that she will take responsibility and go finish Lady Lilith herself." Undertaker frowned but simply shook his head. "Thank you, Tsunara. Please take Andrea on your way out." Tsunara blushed lighly behind her red locks and curstied low. "Yes, My King."
Just then Andrea stood up and grabbed Tsunara's wrist. Again her eyes flashed red, but this time she shook her head violently. "It is NOT my place to ask!" Andrea's eyes narrowed dangerously but then she tried speaking in her raspy voice.
"My King. You MUST tell Tsunara." Before Undertaker could ask what he 'must' tell his servant, Tsunara waved her arms franticlly. "No My King. I think Mistress Andrea is just delerious from these recent turn of events!" Andrea frowned. "Why do you always act like the good proper girl? Demand something for once!"
"It is not lady like."
"Fuck Lady Like!"
"It is not my place to know, only to serve."
"It is my place to serve also, but I can only serve in knowing what Im fully up against."
"I am not on the battle field Mistress Andrea."
"DAMNIT TSUNARA!" Andrea punched the wall leaving a dent and Takara let out a gasp. Tykki looked on in amusement, gripping her hand. Lately he's been getting dangerous and innappropriate around Takara, but she wouldnt let King Medias destroy him. They were HER sins, she would deal with them. "Hehehe, this is better than tv."
(A.N:Remember Demon World has no time. Anything and everythings is already invented)
Takara playfully smaked him upside the head. Jirou laughed despite the fact Andrea and Tsunara were close to a brawl.
"Honestly, why arent you like your damn brother! He actually socializes. He lives!" Andrea whispered fiercly and Tsunara just kept calm. "My brother is an arrogant fool who one day his hubris will cause his downfall."
"Such a Tsunara line!"
"Well my name is Tsunara, Mistress Andrea, and it did leave my mouth." Andrea growled dangerously. "You can talk smart ass fluently but you cant ask a damn question?!" Tsunara just smirked sadly as a relply.
"Im guessing you want to know what the prophecy of Roxanna is, Tsunara?" Undertaker questioned and the woman shook her head.
"Thats Mistress Andrea, My King."
"HA! Thats why I already know, dumbass." Andrea scoffed and Tsunara was surprisingly not rolling her eyes.
"Then why must I know, Mistress Andrea?" Undertaker chuckled and pointed to a chair. He motioned for Tsunara to sit and hesitately she sat.
"You see Tsunara, Roxanna was the mother of Lilith. Technically she's the head of your clan." Tsunara's eyes widned. She always knew something was up with Lilith and she always spoke about it to the people of her village. After awhile they shunned her and she left, only to be saved by Undertaker himself when she was attacked by a starved demon.
"Lilith killed her own parents for power and she disguised it well. She thinks that the four of us dont know. The prophecy is a curse on all of us. Her last dying breaths she gave someone the power to be able to destroy her daughter before she destroyed the world. Little did we know, Lilith twisted the curse around as to which the person that could kill her would turn into the one who would destroy the world. He or she would be an unstoppable force that even I couldnt handle." Tsunara's jaw dropped and Undertaker chuckled a little.
"Roxanna was a good woman and a hard working mother. She tried her best to control Lilith but as we all can see, she was a bad apple."
"Rotten really." Tsunara murmered and Undertaker laughed while she blushed not realizing the little remark she stated was aloud.
"…And we have every reason to believe that your the one Roxanna had blessed with the power." Undertaker continued smoothly like that wasnt going to crush the girls mind. Her eyes widened in horror and she had a very reasonable response to that statement.
She fainted.
Undertaker chuckled softly at the vision and Titania let on a little smile herself. Even though they were smiling, I knew they were in pain.
"Basiclly the WayWard were two people who balanced out the diffrences between all of the clans and over the years generals who took on missions to defeat Lilith. That is what I highly suspect you three are. Of coarse we would have to make sure of that. Only the WayWard and the Princess of mortals, Takara, can stand to see us in our hunters form. This form helps you keep peace also because of our strength. Sebastian be a dear and cover the young lords eyes. Now then, Rouge would you be able to kindly lead us."
"Sure thing, Sis."
I didnt fight off Sebastian's hands, I felt like if I didnt cover my eyes I would be in a heap of trouble.
I guess they didnt start the procedure or whatever the hell it was because Hannah asked; "Why dont they just sing the song and we look at there marks." Titania paused for a minute and then.
"Well...they sing the song but...someone has to start it off?" Why was she afraid of talking now?
"WHAT?!" Undertaker hollered and I swear it was the scariest shit you will ever hear. So thats why. I removed Sebastian's hands to see Undertaker brush his bangs back. "Children call upon the spirits. NOW." Damn! Hannah was visibly shaking. Titania gulped loudly and raised her slightly shaking hand out. A sceptor appeared, pale purple, and she stood inbetween Hannah and Mystogan. Rouge stood next to Mystogan and I realized this is the order that they were born. Hannah raised her sceptor, a flaming red, and began some sort of chant. Her eyes flashed demonic in front of my three servants.
"I am the Venatrix Damnatorum-Huntress of the lost. My job my sole purpose of exsisting is to hunt down dark, misbehaved, fallen, and strayed angels. I am bidded unto this day to protect all of the angelic race from there own kind. So strike me down my own father, King Undertaker of the Shinigami, to remove my authority and power if I proclaim to be a threat. In the Council of Darkness's eyes," Hannah's eyes began to glow impossibly bright and her sceptor gave off a pure aura. It was blinding. I think this is what Sebastian was suppose to cover my eyes for, but he was to drawn in to the show just as much as I was. Hannah's hair began to glow white.
I would sit back and watch.
Titania held up her sceptor and spoke with downright boldness.
"I am the Venatrix de Tribulacione- Huntress of the suffering. I hunt down the most powerful of mortals. My job my sole purpose in life is to keep the mortals sins to a minimal. I am also in charge in keeping the balance of the mortals fears and desires, their diseases and their suffering. To keep this in peace I have to keep a perfect balance of innocence and darkness. So strike me down my own father King Undertaker of the Shinigami, to remove my authority and power if I proclaim to be a threat. In the Council of Darkness's eyes," Titania's hair fell from its updo once more and turned white before it settled down her back.
Mystogan held up his midnight blue sceptor and his short locks turned ashy gray.
"I am the Venator daenonum-Hunter of demons. I keep the order in which demons roam free in the mortal world and how many souls they possess. I also keep track of the contracts formed between demons and other beings and get rid of the ones who illegally do so. So strike me down my on father King Undertaker of the Shinigami to remove my athourity and power if I proclaim to be a threat. In the Council of Darkness's eyes," Mystogan's eyes flashed and I cant help but to stare. He was beautiful and strong looking, he may even give Sebastian a run for his money. I couldnt help but to wonder onto dangerous territories thinking about those cold eyes.
Finally Rouge stepped up, his pale deep green sceptor emmiting a darkening aura.
"I am the Venator Teneberarum-Hunter of the dark. I am in charge of hunting down the lost shinigami. I am also in charge of catching any runaways to keep them from spreading any secrets that would cause a threat to my race. So strike me down in the name of my father, King Undertaker of the Shinigami, to remove my authority and power if I proclaim to be a threat. In the Council of Darkness's eyes," Rouge's hair like the others turned white and all of them held up there sceptors even higher. Then they all spoke in unison, a melody of sorts.
"In the eyes of the Council and in the eyes of Hell, we pass some of our power to the WayWard the ultimate balancer. The WayWard has a duty just like us. To keep the clans of the Shinigami, the Angels, the Demons, and the Mortals at peace. So strike them down in the names of the first, Andrea and Adonis, if they proclaim to be a threat in the Judgment of Fate's eyes."
And then everyhing stopped. The blinding light, the aura of power.
Titania gasped, and then collapsed. Sebastian was about to move when Undertaker caught her. He ordered his kids to stop and stop they did. Undertaker murmered three simple words that made my spine chill. Undertaker was always laughing about stuff.
"This is bad."
"Earl Phantomhive."
Turning around I see Mystogan walking towards me. I let Sebastian stop being my shadow for a while to check on Titania so I could explore the castle like architecture.
"Yes that is I." I really was not in the mood for this one. The way he kept staring at me made me feel awfully strange. Even self-concious.
"You do realize for the next year Titania and Sebastian will have to train."
"And this concerns me why?"
"Because they will have to train here."
Well that was shocking. No demons in my manor for a year. That couldnt be right. That means my plans for revenge were turned and I would have to wait. I am a very impatient man. Looking the demon straight in the eyes, I smirk and take a few steps closer. He's about my age- well in a human sense, demon I have no fucking clue- but has a few inches on me when it comes to height.
"So your planning on taking my knight and bishop from my gameboard without even deciding to play a match, huh? I do not believe that will be happening." Mystogan looked shocked and opened his mouth to retort but I interrupted.
"My game has already been set in motion since Sebastian became my butler. He vowed to stay by my side untill I get my revenge. Once that is over you may have him. But untill that day he is mine." Turning away I thought it was the last time I would see him.
How wrong was I.
A.N: Out of curiosity who would want to have a Undertaker and Tsunara. I wasnt quite thinking about it but for you guys I would!
Titania: Can you believe its been a whole year scince the reunion with my siblings?
Sebastian: Yes. I can. What I cant believe is that its been a whole year and you still havent claimed me as yours.
Titania: Roxanna is going to kill off the demon race and your thinking about marriage?!
Sebastian: Roxanna will do no harm...its the person she blessed that will kill us.
Titania: DUMBASS! The person blessed is also known as Roxanna! Goodness did you pay attention in school?!
Sebastian:...I believe it is time for your afternoon tea My Lord.
Titania:Seriously?!
Sebastian and Titania:
Next Time: Battle Sorceress
Titania:If I couldnt take down a couple of bad apples and get it done before supper, what kind of a sorceress would I be?
