Moonlight9913: I don't own anything except Moonlight, and Nightshade owns Nightshade.

Chapter 17: Encounter with Grell

Moonlight's POV

I turn my head slowly behind me. "Takashi! There's a candy store!" I saw Honey from the Host Club. I stand up. Nightshade watches carefully. I then sprint at Honey with all my might. "HONEY SEMPAI!" I he looks at me, then was surprised. I hug him and we go crashing to the ground. I flip over so I'm the one getting hurt. I hear a snap. "Honey! It's sooooo good to see you again!" I yell, hugging him some more. I then release my death grip from him then run over to Tamaki. "TAMAKI!" I screech, then jump into the air, diving at him with my arms wide open.

"Whoa, whoa, WHOA!" He yells, then I crash into him with a hug. I snuggle him, saying "I missed you sooooooooo much Tamaki!" Tamaki panicked. "Who are you! Get off of meh!" I jump off, confused. Then I remembered. I gave Tamaki a note, saying that I had died when I left Japan. "Um, I'm Gekkou… Hehe…" I say, rubbing the back of my head. Everything got quiet, and everybody either got a really sad look or turned their heads away, except Honey, who was bawling. "You can't be Gekkou. She's dead." An idea popped into my head. "Here, I have proof!"

I stick out my hand, flames engulfing it. The others seemed surprised but had doubt flicker in their eyes. The flames vanished, leaving behind my dagger. I thrust it into my heart, my knees buckling. I pull it out and blood pours everywhere. They gasp and other people began to crowd around. I pull out the gem, and showed it to the group.

"See? It's the Jigoku Hikari Jewel!" That seemed to get everyone's belief except Tamaki's. "If you're really Gekkou, then tell me what happened on the day when I last saw her. I didn't tell anybody about this." The host club gasped. "Alright then. I was possessed, attacked you, then Sesshoumaru appeared, then took me and Rin away. Oh, and he turned into a huge dog. He had silver hair, a blue crescent moon and magenta stripes on the side of his face." This seemed to make Tamaki believe. "You really are Gekkou!" I slapped my forehead. "Before I forget! My real name is Moonlight. Hehe… sorry for not giving my real name… Safety reasons…" Tamaki smiles. "That's ok! I understand!" I run at him, my arms open, and Tamaki does the same.

"Father!" I call out. "Daughter!" He calls back, as we crash into a hug. He laugh then I release him, and charged at the twins. "Your turn!" They begin to panic. Before they could do anything, I hug both of their necks and we fall over. I then hug their chests so I don't choke them to death, then ran to Mori. "Mori!" I yelled in a childish voice. I leap up and hug his chest. I release, and run towards Haruhi, just not as fast. I crash into her, causing her to stumble back. "Hi, Haruhi!" She pats my back. "Uh, hi… Moonlight is what you want to be called?" I release and nod my head.

"Yup!" I then look at Kyoya. His eyes widen a bit. I get an evil glint in my eye, and charge at him with all my might. He braces for the impact, but I stop right in front of him. "Hi Kyoya!" I smile brightly up at him. He blinked a couple of times. I give him a nice hug and went back to the middle. "So! Whatcha all doing here?" I ask. "We're here to find Itsuki, I mean Nightshade." Honey answers. "Oh, Nightshade? Why do you want to find Nightshade?" I ask. "Because a bunch of men stole her, then she lettered us, saying that she needed our help!" Tamaki says, exaggerating.

My sweat drops. "Tamaki, she said she was visiting London, and that she was doing fine." I said. He looked surprised. "How do you know?" He questions, peering at me. "Duh, I live with her!" Tamaki looked really surprised. "Really! Lead us to her!" I look over at Nightshade, who by now has a hood on her that I added to her beautiful red outfit as soon as I heard Honey. "Ok! Follow me then." I gave her a weird look and she got the message. I open a portal to the mansion, and we were off.

Hour later

We get back to the mansion, and I burst open the door. Sebastian was waiting already. 'Hmm, that wasn't part of the plan, but Nightshade must have ordered him to greet us.' The club was ooing and ahing. "Welcome, everybody. The master cannot come out to greet you all because he is busy, but he did say to enjoy yourself while you're here." Sebastian welcomed. "Thank you! Such kind manners!" Tamaki says. "Why thank you." Sebastian bows slightly. "Alright everyone! This here is Sebastian, the butler of this mansion. Sebastian, I would expect you already know everyone?" I ask. He sighes. "Unfortunely, the lady didn't inform me who was coming. All she said was 'friends from Japan.' So do indulge me." I smile. "Alright! This here is the Ouran High school's Host Club!" Sebastian smirks abit, then it quickly turns into a smile. "How interesting…" Sebastian was eyeing Haruhi. 'He must know that she's a girl.' I thought.

I clap my hands together. "Alright, the founder and president of the Host club is this here Tamaki Suo." I say, standing next to Tamaki. He smiles brightly. "Nice to meet you!" Sebastian bows. "And to you." I then walk to Kyoya. "Next, is the vice-president, Kyoya Otori." Kyoya nods his head then pushes his glasses. Sebastian smiles, but I could tell he doesn't like him.

'Probably reminds him a lot of William the reaper.' I thought, noticing that they both push their glasses up the same way. I walk over to the twins. "These are the twins and trouble makers off the club, Hikaru and Kaoru Hitachiin." I smile devishly at Sebastian, an evil glint in my eyes. "Nice to meet you." They said in unison. "It's my pleasure." Sebastian says, then immediately glares at me slyly, not wanting the club to see him. I turn my head and walk over to Honey. "This here is Mitsukuni Haninozuka, also known as Honey, and probably would like to be called that also." Sebastian bows a bit. "I understand."

I move over to Mori. "This here is Takashi Morinozuka, also liked to be called Mori." Sebastian nods his head. I move over to Haruhi. "This is the newest member of the club, Haruhi Fujioka." She bows. "It's nice to meet you, Sebastian." Sebastian was surprised, but quickly got over it. "And it's a pleasure to meet you, Haruhi Fujioka." I clap my hands again. "Alright! So now you want to see Nightshade?" They all nod. "Alright, follow me!" I shout, raising my arm into the air.

I go up the staircase, the club closely behind. I see Sebastian is still at the bottom, watching us carefully.

We walk down the hallway, leading to the game room. "So what are you Ge- I mean Moonlight?" Tamaki asks. I smile weekly. "Nothing really, I'm just a resident here pretty much, but I see that something needs help, I try to help out." I explain. "Oh, I see." Tamaki mumbles.

We get to the game room's door, and I open it carefully. Nightshade was sitting at the card table, gaming with Prince Soma. I gasp. 'What the hell is he doing here!' I think desperately. I sigh, not really able to do much about it. I put on my excited face, and burst through the door. "Prince Soma!" I yell in a childish voice.

"Moonlight!" He yells back as we crash into one and other with a hug. "It is good to see you again, Moonlight!" I smile up at him. "And to you!" We let go and I act like I wipe dust off of myself. "Everybody! This here is Prince Soma. He's from India!" I introduce.

The club stares in awe at Soma. "You're really a Prince?" Tamaki asks. Soma nods his head. "Yup! I am sure am!" A thought clicks my mind. "That reminds me, how come you're here, Prince Soma?" He sighs. "You can just call me Soma, Moonlight. I would be much happier if you did." I nod. "Alright, Soma." He smiles. "Good. I'm here because I wanted to see shortie." I held back a laugh. The club was confused. "Hehe… The earl of the Phantomhives and owner of the Funtom toy company is Ciel Phantomhive, a twelve year old, whom is Nightshade's brother. He's… a bit short for his age, but any who, no need for details!" I explain.

"Anyways! Nightshade! Come up here, the club came all this way to see you!" I call out to her. "Oh, yes right. Hello everyone!" She said, strolling up to the middle. "Nightshade! You're not hurt are you!" Tamaki yells. She sighs shaking her head. "I told you in the letter, I'm fine. My butler came and save me." Tamaki get confused, again.

"You mean Sebastian?" He asks. "Yup, that's my butler, alright!" Nightshade says happily. "Now, now! Let's sit down while I make some tea!" I suggest. "That sounds great!" Tamaki says. "And I'll also make some sweets!" I say, to make Honey happy. "Yay!" He squeals. I turn and leave the room.

Nightshade's POV

'Like father, like daughter…' I thought. "So why is it that your brother has taken over the company at such a young age?" Tamaki asks politely, for once. "It's because my parents had died in a fire." I hear Ciel say behind me. I stand up and look behind me. Sure enough, Ciel was standing at the door way.

"Ciel! What are you doing over here? I thought Sebastian told me that you were busy!" Ciel nods his head. "Indeed I was, but I had gotten all of the paperwork for today finished, and besides, it would have been rude not to meet my guests whom came all the way from Japan just to see my sister."

'No need to be rude about it.' I thought. "Oh, such manners! I'm honored!" Tamaki says in delight, totally believing Ciel's fake words.

"I'm back with the swe-Oh Ciel! Hi there! I thought you were busy!" Moonlight says, coming in with tea and sweets. "I was but I had gotten it all done for today." Ciel explains quickly. "Oh, I see. Anyways, would you like some sweets that I made? They're probably not as good as Sebastian's but enough to suit you're tastes." She offers. He sighs. "I might as well." Then we all sit down and drank tea and ate sweets for a while.

Hour later

Moonlight's POV

"Your right when you said they aren't good as Sebastian's but they were still good." Ciel admits. I was surprised. "Oh, thank you! I'm honored!" I say. It's not normal for Ciel to say things like that. "What? Are you saying that your butler can make even better ones!" Tamaki gasps. "Indeed he can." Ciel says. "Wow…" Honey gasps.

"So, Earl Phantomhive. If it's alright with you, but I'm very curious on what happened to your parents. Would you care to explain?" I hear Kyoya ask for the first time. 'It figures…' I thought. "Not at all." Ciel said. "It was my birthday, you see. And we had just gotten back from town, going around and seeing things. I had fallen asleep when later, I smelt smoke."

"I got up to see flames everywhere. I began to panic. I quickly ran out into the hallway, looking for my parents. As I ran by to their room, I saw that my dog was dead, in a pool of blood. I could then tell this was no accident. I continued to run past and finally got to my parents room, to see them surrounded in flames. There was no way of getting to them. Just then I was shoved out of the way by the household steward, Tanaka. He got shot in the back, but he was fine. I was forced to get out of the mansion, as it burned to the ground with my parents inside. This was three years ago."

Tamaki sniffled. "How sad! For a nine year old to see his parents die right before his eyes! It must have scared you for life." Ciel shook his head. "Not at all." I blink. 'He must not want to appear weak. I'm surprised he explained what happened to him to some guests that he's never seen before…'

Hours later

"Well, then! So where would you all be staying, Tamaki?" I ask. "Hmm, good question! I suppose we could stay at a nearby hotel…." Tamaki said, pondering. I expected Ciel to offer, but he didn't. "You can stay with us, Tamaki!" Nightshade offered. "Oh, really? That's to kind of you!" Tamaki said. "No problem at all!" Nightshade says.

Late at night

The Host Club members are already asleep, along with everyone else. I sigh, bored. I get up, not really wanting to go to sleep any more than I used to. I open up the window and jumped out of it. I land but continued walking down the path towards town.

I continued to walk, now in the forest. I could sense something following. I smile. "Here, Wolf! Come here! I know you're out there!" I call out. I hear a whine, then "the wolf" as you all remember, came out.

The wolf had healed and we had named him simply Wolf. We had no other ideas to name him so we just stuck with that. He had gotten better when I decide to let him roam free in the woods that surrounded the mansion, so I could still see him.

Wolf had come out and I petted him. "Hey, there! It's been a while, Wolf!" I greeted him, as I pulled out a bone for him. He wagged his tail and took it nicely. He turned around and buried it pretty deep for later. "You're gonna follow me then? Alright, just stay close then." I say.

We walked for a while towards town, the sun beginning to rise. I walked and finally made it to town. "Now where should I go?" I thought. "I know! I haven't seen the Undertaker for a while! I might have a good joke to tell him."

I walked down the streets with Wolf at my side, still loyal as ever. If Sebastian didn't mind Wolf, he would have let him stay, but he said we have too many dogs roaming around. I finally end up at the Undertaker's shop, the store open.

Come to think of it, I wasn't sure if it closed. I open the door slowly. As usual, I couldn't see the Undertaker anywhere. "Undertaker! Are you in?" I said, walking in casually, Wolf still at my side. I could hear soft cackling somewhere, but couldn't pinpoint it. As I walked by a coffin, it opened revealing the Undertaker. "Did I scare ye yet, my dear?" He asked, grinning his usual creepy grin. "Nope. Sorry." I say, smiling. "Blast, you're no fun atall!" The Undertaker cursed, but very quickly got over it. "So what brings you here, taday?" He asks. "Nothin, I was just bored, and realized that I hadn't seen you for a while and thought I'd pay a visit."

"I see, well you know the price for visiting the Undertaker." I nod "You've got to make him laugh. Hmm let's see… how about this?"

"A woman, being very upset that her husband had just died, paid a visit to the funeral home to view the body before the funeral. Upon seeing the husband laid out in the casket in a brown suit, she remembered he always hated the color brown. She told the undertaker of this and somewhat apologized for being such a pain but would they take care of it and put on the blue suit. The undertaker agreed and she left the building. Remembering she forgot her purse, she returned to the building, and upon entering was just in time to hear the undertaker yell out:

'Hey Joe, switch the heads in caskets 3 and 5!'"

The Undertaker burst out laughing, almost shaking the store. I grinned at this, a bit proud of myself. "Ah, it's so funny because it's true!" The undertaker continued laughing. I sigh, satisfied. "So. What is it that you wanted?" The undertaker snapped back to normal. "Uh…. er, Like I said, I haven't seen you for a while so I wanted to pay you a visit." I said. "Are ye sure about that?" The Undertaker questions me further. I sigh, already knowing I blew my cover. "Alright you win-"Yay!" The Undertaker quickly interrupts. "-… I haven't been sleeping lately. I find it disturbing."

The Undertaker grins. "So you've finally realized it." I frown at this. "What do you mean?..." The Undertaker grins wider. "You see, since you have a demon inside of you, your demon self, angel self, and human self are all fighting one and other, trying to take over your body."

"So far, since you're not sleeping, it seems like your demon self is winning. And naturally, you're demon inside you is fine with it." I was shocked. "How do you know about all that? All I told you was that I was immortal!" The Undertaker grins again. "I know a lot of things dear. For example, I know that butler of the Phantomhives is your father. Oh, that reminds me!"

"Since I met you, I meant to tell you that you are my granddaughter." My world cracks. "Wha-what? What the heck! You just dump this information on me! People are going to get confused!" I heard a gasp. I whip my head around to see Nightshade's head peering around a coffin. "Ah, Nightshade! It's been awahile!" The Undertaker greets.

"But she's your granddaughter? How is dat possible!" She questions. "Isn't it obvious? Her mother is my daughter! That demon cannot be my son! It's unacceptable!" I interrupt. "What about an angel." The Undertaker chuckles. "As I'm certain that that butler has explained it to you already, my lover's angel powers were dormant. At the time, I didn't even know she had angel in her."

"And besides, we both have silver hair! Hahaha!" The Undertaker joked. I frown at him. "But still… THAT'S AWESOME!" I yell. "I KNOW RIGHT!" Nightshade yells back. I get serious. "Indeed." Nightshade does the same. "Quite." We both chuckle along with the Undertaker.

"So Moonlight, before I forget. You need to choose what you want to be. An angel, a demon, or human, or perhaps have your demon take hold of your mind and let it take control. If you don't do anything, then the demon inside you will take control forcefully and it will be very painful. Anyways, have a nice day~!" The undertaker added as we walked out the door. "You too, Grandfa!" I yell back as we walk down the street.

People stared at us as we said this. I stared back. They quickly went back to what they were doing. "OMG! Guess WHAT!" I yell, pumped. "What!" Nightshade yelled, now pumped too. "I want you to introduce you to somebody very important!" I yelled, as I grabbed her hand and dragged her along the street, sprinting at full speed.

I suddenly stop, on top of a roof. I then yell on top of my lungs. "GODFATHERRRRRRRRRRRR!" A couple of seconds later, I heard a click behind me, somebody landing on the ground. I whip around, Grell standing there. "Godfather!" I yelled, leaping into the air. "Goddaughter!" Grell yelled, also leaping into the air. We hug in midair, and landed still hugging. "Nightshade! Grell here is my deadly efficient Godfather." I explained as we both did Grell's pose. "Oh Hohoho! You've gotten that down quite well, my dear!" Grell congratulates, patting my head. I smile up at him. "Tank you~!" Nightshade was gaping in awe. "Grell Suttcliff? Thee Grell Sutcliff?" Grell nods. "Yup the one and only!"

"Oh ! Please please please please pleeeaaassee let me be your apprentice!" Nightshade begged. "Hmm, you do have a wonderful sense of fashion." Grell said exanimating her. "Alright, I agree! Nobody has ever begged me to be my apprentice!" Nightshade exploded. "YEASSHH! COME ON MOONLIGHT! I NEED TO TELL CIEL AND THE CLUB!" We started running towards the mansion. "We'll be right back!" I yelled to Grell.

We made it to the mansion, bursting in. Sebastian was in the entrance hall, escorting the club out. "Where are you guys going?" I ask. "Oh, we're going back to Japan. We came to make sure Nightshade was okay, and unfortunely, she is." Tamaki sighs.

"What the heck is that supposed to mean!" I yell. "Uh, n-nothing!" Tamaki said. "Mhmm. Whatever! Anyways…." I was staring at a bug, a cockroach, half the size off my hand. "Se… Seba… SEBASTIAN!" I screech. I take off of my shoes and started throwing it at it. "KILL IT! KILL IT! KILL IT! KIIIIIIIILLLLLL IIIIIITTTT!" I screeched, now smashing it with my scythe. It looked like it was dead, but then it got back up. "HEUAAHHHH! IIIIIIIIIIIIITTTTTTTTT!" I screeched some more, throwing random objects nearby. I ran out of nearby objects, so I grabbed Nightshade.

"Wait, WHAT ARE YOU DOING! NO DON'T THROW MEH! AIEEEE!" Nightshade screeched as I threw her at the cockroach. She landed on it, and she immediately flew up into the air. "EEEEEWWWWW! GROSS GROSS GROSS GRRRRRRRRRROOOOOOOOOOOSSSSSSS! KILL IT KILL IT KILL IT KILL IT!" Nightshade screeched with all her might. Then we both started flaing our arms, running around in circles screeching in unision "KILL IT!" Sebastian sighs. "Alright calm down you two." We were clinging to his shoulders. Sebastian walks up to cockroach, and smashes it. He then throws it out the window.

I immediately jump out the window, picked up the bug and bashed it to the ground, then threw it into the sky so far, that it would never hit the ground again. I was panting. I looked up to the window to see Ciel next to Sebastian, along with Nightshade. I laugh.

The host club leaves to go back to Japan, and Nightshade leaves to be Grell's apprenrice. What a lucky girl. Oh well, I still have Sebastian. It was nighttime, and I was pondering about what the Undertaker said. 'Your demon side, angel side, and human side are fighting against each other. You must choose one, if you don't, your demon locked inside you will take over your mind'

"So, what's bothering you this time, Moonlight?" Sebastian asks behind me. I sigh, not really sure what to say. "I visited the Undertaker today and he said that all of my traits are fighting against one another and he said I have to choose what I want to be. If I don't, my mind will be taken over by the demon locked inside me." I explain.

"I see… well, forget that for now and let's just stare at the moonlight, shall we?" Sebastian asks, sitting down next to me. I instantly lean up against him and close my eyes, comfort overwhelming.

Moonlight: SO. You like? I hope you did and sorry it took so long, I've been busy and Nightshade took for eva to post it. Anyways hope you enjoyed!
