Blackest of Nights chapter 10, Toxic Confrontation
The next morning, Ilde woke up in her usual bed. She could feel Elizabeth, breath beside her, and her cold hands, around her, holding near her chest, to keep her from leaving. As usual, there was a sharp pain, in ehr gut, but she ignored it. Sleeping, was not something that she needed to do, and she only enjoyed doing it, to reach others in their dreams. Fainting, she did that often, in order to make others underestimate, so she could surprise them. Anything she could have been, but she definitely was not week, noone could say that. Even the butler, she was sure, she could have dispatched, if given a surprise oppertunity. It was too conspicious, at the estate. He was a danger, thoguh, so an approach may be nessesary...
Idle used her powers, to get out of bed without bothering Elibeth, and tore open a gap, to reach the front of the mansion, since she knew who would be coming soon. She thoguht she was a lone, at first, before the front door opened, and out came James, looking tired. He stretched, with a smirk on his face. "Inaba, oh my god." He said, with a remark. "Are they ever going to catch us? Jessus. We may as well scream it to london, WERE SERIAL KILLERS, right? Or, havent you killed a few? I cant remember, times a blur when your having fun."
Ilde ignored him, not being much for conversation, with anyone but her deals, and super natual beins, interfereing with her business. James scoffed, since he was used to it, and kept talking. "Ho many now? 300? Do you think, well ever hit a thousand!?"
Ilde kept quiet. "I juts miss that one girl." Said James. "The one, who had the japanese name. Teruko. She was a good one, I dont know where she went. Maybe Bathory offed her,w ithout telling us, eh?"
She kept being quiet, until she said, "...go inside, James."
James looked stupid, but he didn't argue. "Alright." He said. "Bye, then."
He went inside, but Ilde didnt care, since she saw someone at the gate, in her mind. She paused everything, and it became gray scale, and she focused her mind, to find out who. Without surprise, it was butler, from Phantomhive Estate. She swore, and ancient swear, and made a plan, before going to the gate, in her disguys, to greet him. She wouldnt dress as she would, in her own home, and make herself look conpicious, until she neeeded to fight him, which would happen, and wouldnt use her powers, until nesessary, so she could save them for the upcoming fight.
When she got to the gate, Sebastian was there, but weird enough, wasnt unkind, at least looking. Maybe, she thought, that he didnt quite understand, her true nature, in its entirelty. She didnt move to open the gate, and Sebastian didnt seem to care, and just stood ther, smiling through the bars at her. "Good mroning." He said, calm. "I believe, weve met before?"
"Yes. Your Sebastian Mikaelus, right?" Inada asked. "I know you know me. I, am Inaba Ilde."
"At least for now, you are." Said Sebastian. "I would liek to speak with you, about your visit to the estate. That, and the events, of last night. Im sure, that you know what I mean."
Ilde blinked. "I'm afraid, I dont. You will need, to clarify." She said, playing dumb.
Sebastian, looked somehwat miffed. "He returned to the estate, in new clothing, and bleeding black blood from a wound, inflicted on his abdomenal. He was also, noticably stronger, than ordinary. Im sure that you can explain, this, being that you,t oo, share the same wound, on your abdomen." He said.
"Nonsense." Ilde said.
"Its no use playing dumb, i knwo what you did. If your trying to avoid telling me everything, its not going to happen." Said sebastian. "Whether you like it, or not, Im going to extratct info, from you. So, what are you? Why do you make, deals?"
"it is good, for someone like me to have power." Said Idle. "Very desirble. Without such deals, my lifespan would be shortened. And not to mention, knowing that i can defeat a demon is a good feeling."
Sebistian snorted. "What? Your joking. I can tell, your not that strong." He said.
"That is where, you are wrong." Ilde said. Then, she glowed her fingertips blood red, and used them to stop time, and open a entrence to her world. Everything transformed, to be her world, and she got her outfit, from her deal with Taro earlier, with the shorter dress and obi bandage. With the world, she looked younger than before. So when Sebastian was unfroze from time, everything was different, in a flash, and the person standing in front of him, was far stronger and more intimidating, then he thought. "If you want info from me, you will haev to fight. And in my world, like this, there is no chance of me loosing." She said. "My pride is too great, and my power too extra ordinary, to bow to the whims of a demon butler."
So they were in her throne room, with the big picture of her, from at least 300 years ago, and artifats from even longer then that. Sebastian looked around, in admired. "Quite teh decor. I suppose, you must be proud of your immorallity." He said. "How does your immortality work?"
"I survive until sound killed." Said Ilde, smiling. "I have existed, for over a thousand years."
"Impressiv. I want to know, how such powers work." Said sebastian. "and if you wont answer my questions, i suppose ill have to toy with your life, and find out myself."
"I would like to see you try that, demon." Said Ilde, laughing. "I have fought hardier opponents then thou. If you think your a speical case, your delusion yourself."
"But I wonder." Sebastian said. "Would the universe morn you?"
"It would misss me." Said Ilde. "But speculation is stupid."
"Then maybe we should make, the speculation, a reality." Sebastian smiled more, ready for battle, before taking out knives, and dashing towards Ilde, ready to inpale her. (dundunDUN!)
