Author's Notes: I am kicking myself for this. I am not a huge VK Fan after the midway point. Do not get me wrong, I am okay with the nature of the love triangle, as well as the deeper connections that Yuki and Kaname share. Was kinda expecting that from the little bits given in the first manga and obsession levels. And amongst vampires that's okay. What I really hated was the ending. MY FLIPPING OMFG, crappy way to write yourself out of a corner…
But for some odd reason, this had been banging around in my head and my muse is a living fucking prick for not letting me shelve it. So here I give you all, an InuYasha x Vampire Knight Crossover. Pairing undecided as of yet.
Prologue
A chill wind blew through the clearing, causing ripples to dance across the almost black lake surface as it reflected the light of the full moon towards the sky. As a person stood there, seemingly looking out at nothing in particular, should anyone happen to wander by? Not that anyone should at this specific time of night. At least nothing human. Animal or a low-level vampire, maybe. But even they'd be leery due to the presence standing there.
"I will say this much. Our target is quite. But from the intel that has been gathered, they have made contact. Trying to form an alliance."
Silence reigned for a few seconds before a low, deep rumbling voice broke it. The coldness in that voice would have sent shivers down an interloper's spine, should have to the person standing at the edge of the lake. But instead, it just made them cock their head to the side as they listened.
"I see. This is problematic. Have you found anything else out? have you made contact with the other person of interest?"
The sudden straightening of the person's head as they suddenly began to fidget nervously.
"Yes... and no..."
In their reply, the quiet became almost suffocating, before the person sighed softly. Knowing it was futile to hold anything back. This mission was of great importance. Could once more change the world and its history, for the worse.
"I have confirmed that the headmaster is a descendant of the Houshi's and Slayers bloodline. A bit eccentric, but overly affectionate and caring in his own... very unique way. And that his adoptive daughter... her soul... is the reincarnation of... your ward... BUT there is a problem with that..."
Suddenly the wind howled loudly through the clearing. They were making the person flinch back as they rolled their eyes dramatically. They knew that what they said next would only incense the man further. Because each time that soul had been reborn, he had come and snatched that child up, be it, girl or boy, to raise them as his own. While endearing, it was also painful to watch as the human life span was short and fleeting, leaving the man once more broken and very cruel for years.
"Explain why there is a problem."
Swallowing thickly as they felt the aura that buffeted them harshly. Causing their aura to come out and shield them protectively.
"She... is.. under a unique situation. Yuki Cross is not what she appears to be My Lord. She is... how to put this... dormant due to a powerful spell. I have to test it for myself but recall some years ago when that family was massacred... I believe she was their child... the daughter that died."
The low rumbling growl that came in response made the person want to curl up and hide. But it was always better to be upfront and truthful with this man. Death would not come easy, if at all. Though thoughts of the pain inflicted by his brand of slow, agonizing torture.
"That is very problematic. Have you a plan to make contact with our person of interest? If so, what are the tactics you will be using."
The soft shuffling sound behind the imposing male, drew a glance, before a smile settling on their face and waiting until the small person had served him his tea before speaking up, making sure that both of them heard clearly.
"Why, My Lord, I thought to use a tactic you are famous for. I plan to get their attention using your methods. After all these long, long years, I think I should have mastered it to a good degree."
The fact that the small man's eyes were bulging as he looked up from his spot behind his master. Who was dabbing tea he almost spits out at the declaration and giving a cold, citrine glare of disbelief.
"Because of this, I will be unable to contact you for a while. Once I get the contract set up, I will contact you once more with them by my side. I plan to use the old ways to form the contract."
With that said, the person bowed briefly at the waist before lifting a hand and waving it through the air. Immediately dismissing the spell, they had been using to communicate. A grin tugging at the corners of their mouth as they turned and jogged back towards Cross Academy. Mind already formulating how they were going to subtly get their target's interest without piquing that of the others in the group.
TBC!
