Shorts and Shots: Clamp's Collection Pt.VI
Title: Shorts and Shots: Clamp's Collection Pt. VI
Category: Clamp and expect some crossovers
Rating: Ranges from T to NC-17 (Due to some graphic scenes, language, blood, a bit of violence, and some hotness in some of these shorts and shots) Part VI is T that is slightly bordering to NC-17
Genre: Mostly Romance, Hurt/Comfort, Humor, Angst a bit of horror, friendship, tragedy, and supernatural.
Note: I'm slightly pissed of due to the fact I cannot post the whole thing on a single entry, so I'll try and post this in halves or quarters.
Note: After reading some SubaruxSakura fics, which I admit is now one of my favorite crossovers pairing, I ended up having a weird craving for a SubaruxSakuraxKamui fic. So, um from that point on, I think the crack bug struck me again and made me imagine more, and more of them. I wanted sleep badly, so I'm going to do something about it. I swear whenever I think of crossover pairings, it leads to some that isn't there on FF. net. Which makes me wonder *rushes to the window and yells: WHERE THE HECK ARE YOU PEOPLE? 'cough'* I'm not sure if I put most of the characters in their characters, so um yeah. ^_^'' That said, let's begin with the collection.
Disclaimer: Honestly I don't want to do the disclaimer, but since I wrote several of crossover pairings and some of them are pairings just from the anime or yaoi. Half of them I have no idea where they come from, so I guess, I'll have to do it anyway.
Let's see:

Title: Of Noahs and the Ark
Pairings: Neah x Shiro Kamui
Other Pairings: Mikk Tyki x Sumeragi Subaru; Hinted Sakurazuka Seishiro x Sumeragi Subaru
Category: Anime or Manga. D. Gray-Man x X/1999
Rating: T
Genre: Drama, Hurt/Comfort, Romance, and One-Sided Romance? Maybe
Warming: I'm sorry if the characters are a bit OOCiness, but that's what made this short more fun to write about.
Note: The thought of adding Tyki into this one was nagging me, on sadistic level, Tyki can be a sadist if he wants to. He could touch things that he want, and the things he doesn't, will pass through him like it was nothing. Also, the idea of Tyki x Subaru pairing is almost like Seishiro x Subaru, except perhaps in a whole new level of possessiveness or playfullness...I rather not know.
On another note, who wouldn't want to see Tyki vs Seishiro, in a showdown but if I were to vote, I vote for Tyki to win. Sorry, Seishiro fans out there.
____________________________
The white piano stood in front of him, Neah, hadn't touch it since his host's death, but the music itself has always been part of him since birth. If given the time and chance, he would have love to get to know his adorable nephew, but that time his host and he was born in, isn't one of their best. After the Holy War, Neah became the Millennium Earl, and it didn't help the fact that Allen is dead to him. Tyki followed Neah, traveling and to stall his own nightmares from the horrors of the war. That's when they came back, to see that Japan has changed since the war, but some of the prophecies hadn't been fulfilled as Hevalaska said on her last breath to Neah. One war is waiting for the Promised Day, to decide the fate of the future for Earth. Neah snorted, whichever side you join, there is always pros and cons. Brushing away the memories, Neah gulped and play the still clean white piano. His heart calm down marginally and he listen to the music he played.
It was the only comfort for him, and reminded him of being The Musician and The Destroyer of the Noahs, much like Allen being The Destroyer of the Millennium. He heard a gasp and Neah paused to look at the person who came into his room within the White Ark, Kamui. Kamui stare at Neah with amazement, he never heard of the brilliant music play by Neah. Neah's eyes soften, Kamui reminded him so much of Allen, minus his other personality, Black Allen.
"What are you doing here, Kamui-kun?" Neah reminded himself, that although he may look seventeen, he is still older than the boy at his door. Kamui blushed at being caught, but Neah smiled at him, and gestured for him to continue on what he wanted to talk about.
"Neah-san, I was wondering, why are you helping me?" Neah's eyes widen, of all the questions, he surely hadn't expected that. He pats the seat right next to him, signaling for Kamui to sit right next to him. Neah began to play another song, the Lullaby he and Mana created.
"You remind me of someone I once met, he's very much like you, except for the other personality he has with him. My late elder brother adopted him." Neah smile, he remembered everything easily, the bloodshed, the Innocence, The Central falling, and how Allen won the Holy War, dying on his last breath.
"You’re late brother? Not Tyki?"
"No, Tyki is part of the clan I have to join because of who I am."
"The Noah Clan?"
"That's right."
"So where is your nephew?" Neah closed his eyes, and continued to play the music.
"Dead, he died saving the world on his very last breath."
"I'm sorry."
"Don't, you weren't there when it happened and you weren't born at that time, so it’s not your fault."
"What was his name?" Neah stopped playing and breathe in a deep breath before looking at Kamui, he ruffled his brown hair, like how he ruffled Allen's in the mindscape. Kamui was about to swat his hand away when he saw that distant smile on Neah's face.
"Allen Walker." Kamui touched the Noah's gray wrist and blushed; he couldn't help but feel jealous of Allen because Allen was important to Neah.
"May I know more about him?" Neah looked at Kamui with surprise, but he smile gently.
"It may take awhile though." Kamui look at him, determined to know more about the nephew that Neah spoke so fondly about. Seeing that look, Neah chuckles, it's the same look when Allen is determined to make everything alright and he began to tell the tale of a boy, who is unlucky as he could be, is one of the greatest people he ever respected and very important to him.
________________________________________
Tyki mutters a curse at Neah or wherever he is now currently in the Ark, really, why does he have to babysit this guy? Then again, it’s the said guy made him feel partly interested. Taking out a cigarette from his pants pocket, he smokes. It’s not like whole world will turn upside down without him watching the guy.
"What are you doing here, Tyki?"
"You really are interesting, shounen." Tyki couldn't help it, but the nickname for Allen just slipped out.
"Did you just call me, kid?" Subaru asked when he looked at Tyki with a cigarette in between his two fingers.
"Does it really matter?" Tyki asked flamboyantly with a smirk, Subaru narrowed his eyes at him.
"Feh, if Cheating Boy A was still alive, he would say that even though that you are chosen or marked, you make your path that satisfies your heart." Subaru glanced at him; Tyki hadn't looked at him as he smoke the cigarette in his mouth.
"You are a Noah, basically you can't die." Tyki looked at Subaru, and snorted. Those accounts in those archives are wrong.
"No, we can die from an element called Innocence, and we can reincarnate as easy as normal people, just much faster." Subaru looked at Tyki with curiosity.
"There was this guy that came close to killing me, he is one unlucky kid. Makes you wonder, what could have happen if he is still alive." Tyki said as he smiled bitterly, he and Neah, hadn't been able to grief properly for Allen, as they kept on running to clear their minds from that war.
"Why are you telling me this?" Tyki looked at Subaru, and thought over the answer he is going to give.
"You know, I don't know myself." Tyki said as he crushed the cigarette he let go with his shoe.
"But remember this, if that Sakurazukamori comes to kill you, I'll kill him for taking something away from me." Tyki said, leaving before Subaru could even give his reply or protest to the White Ark's library. That Sakurazukamori will probably die if I were to go against him. Perhaps, I'll keep his prey hidden from him, since that prey itself interests me.
________________________________________
Omake: Define Insanity
“Are you insane?” Kamui ask Tyki with a wary look when presented the plan to fight Seishiro heads on. Tyki smirked.
“Define insanity for me will you? Then we can continue on to this discussion.” Kamui face palmed, Neah shook his head in amusement while Tyki snickered. There is no doubt that Tyki have the strength and skill to defeat Seishiro easily hands down. It is also a good thing Subaru wasn’t around to hear what they were talking about it.
((A/N: Me: Who wouldn’t want to see that match? *grins before yelling* Round 1, commence!))

Pairings: Uchiha Itachi x Sumeragi Subaru
Other Pairings: (Namikaze) Uzumaki Naruto x Shiro Kamui; Implied Sumeragi Subaru x Sakurazuka Seishiro
Category: Anime or Manga. X/1999 x NARUTO - Evil Sakura Tree!
Rating: T
Genre: Drama, Hurt/Comfort, Friendship, Romance
Warming: I'm sorry if the characters are a bit OOCiness, but that's what made this one-shot more fun to write about.
Note: The thought of adding some characters from NARUTO is so tempting, that I couldn't resist.
Other than that, I was thinking of what would happen if Kyuubi's life force/chakra came intact with the Evil Sakura Tree. I mean c'mon, what tree takes the souls of the living and used them as protection for a country, I heard of trees trapping souls due to people suiciding but this, is the first I ever heard. Then again, I'm arguing about someone else's plot story in an anime//manga where I'm going for being logical in the real world.
____________________________
Although Itachi is figuratively and literally dead, Naruto is still alive, how they end up traveling to another world, none of them have a clue. And what's even weirder is that Itachi has his body back, the same one before he died. Another weird fact is that, Naruto had shrunk to the size of being a toddler, which irked him and made Itachi chuckle at this. After scouting and waiting for information which took the first five months, they were able to blend in and change their appearances. It was another week later when both ninjas found out in this world, there is going to be an upcoming war that will decide the fate of the Earth. Itachi watched Naruto, his hands clenched out of frustration and helplessness.
"Naruto-kun..." Blue eyes filled with determination stared at the onyx calculating ones.
"I don't want them to suffer, even though I don't know these people, I don't want something like this to happen to them. Itachi, you find Subaru-kun, I'll find Kamui-kun. From there, we’ll do our best to protect them." After that, Naruto disappeared in search for a person named Shiro Kamui. Itachi stood there and stared where Naruto stood, before smirking. It can't be helped, if Naruto sets his mind on something, he is determined to do it.
"I better help him. Naruto-kun better be alive when we meet somewhere later in the future." Itachi, himself, doesn't care for the future, but if things were messed up and are similar to their world, Itachi is willing to put his life on the line and help Naruto in preventing the future from coming. Naruto does carry Kami's will after all.
________________________________________
Perfect calculating onyx eyes stare into innocent green ones in a hypnotizing gaze. Itachi raised an eyebrow at the shy teen.
“Can I help you with something?” Green eyes widen, and the teen tried to scramble out the words. Itachi smirked in amusement before letting out a low chuckle that made the teen stare at him.
“How about let’s make it easier, my name is Uchiha Itachi. I’m your new neighbor.” The teen stare at him shyly with a blush on his face, Itachi admits that the teen is cute but not out loud.
“My name is Sumeragi Subaru.” Itachi smirk grew just slightly; being near his assignment will make his mission slightly easier.
________________________________________
Subaru cried under the sakura tree, holding his dead sister's body to him. Itachi clenched his hands, he was too late to save the person that his precious one loves. This scene was all too familiar to him, Shishu dead with one eye removed, Itachi vomited out and cried over his best friend's dead body before throwing it into the river. Itachi pulling out the sword that he had struck through his own father, and made Sasuke getting stronger and coming at him with the intent to kill filled with rage and revenge.
However, this scene also reminds him of his former ex-ANBU Captain, Hakate Kakashi. He lost his friend and his own eye during an ambush, but his friend's last words are giving his own eye to him and use it, so both can see the future together. A perfect example of a genius not going to become insane or go rogue, unlike other geniuses like Oroichimaru or himself. From there, Kakashi acts a bit like his late cousin, Obito, and for Sasuke is, when Itachi killed his own clan, Sasuke became Itachi after he killed him. Itachi silently prayed that Subaru wouldn't pull a Sasuke on him, even if he had to say it verbally out loud. Other than that, Itachi's eyes narrowed and his eyes turned into those cursed eyes he hates since he was a tween, he'll kill Seishiro for hurting Subaru.
Itachi doesn't mind being a Sakurazukamori, it’s almost like being part of ANBU or being part of Akatsuki again, with the killings, but Itachi hates killing, and he’ll have to find people to kill that won’t be missed. He needs to wait for Naruto to come with Kamui to get rid of the tree, the tree itself feeds on the life force of the people it kills. If that was true, then the life force equals to chakra, then it'll have a negative effect if it comes in contact with the Kyuubi’s chakra itself, so therefore he could wait for a few years or months before Naruto gets here and meets up with them. What he needs to do is comfort Subaru, so he went near Subaru and gathered him in his arms, forcing Subaru to let go of Hokuto’s lifeless body. Seeing him cry, is enough for him to build anger and hatred over the tree itself.
"Shh, Subaru." Itachi could barely hear Subaru from the sounds of crying he made.
"Why did Seishiro-san did it, Itachi?" Itachi stilled, he himself don't know why and there are a lot of reasons he could say about that Sakurazukamori, but then again Itachi was an ex-ANBU Captain himself, and ex-nukenin, and what Sakurazukamori did earlier, he suppress the cold shudder running up and down his spine, the Sakurazukamori made him remind what he did to Sasuke. He tightened his grip around Subaru, kisses his head, his forehead, and his tears.
"There are so many reasons for why he did it, out of pleasure, out of request, out of mind, or..." Itachi hesitates on the last reason, he didn't want Subaru to hear it, no matter how hard it was for him to say it to Sasuke. "He wants you to be strong, strong enough for you to face him." Subaru stilled, his tears didn't stop as they continued down the trail on his cheeks. His green eyes look at Itachi, and Itachi thought he look like Sasuke. Innocent and naive, overshadowed by the ones they love. Subaru is stunned, seeing red eyes with tomes swirling in a circular motion for the first time instead of the guarded black onyx warm eyes that he usually sees .Itachi mentioned he have this eye condition that is rare, that it cannot be found on medical books because it is yet to be found. He explained that some parts of his family view this as shame due to a genetic mutation, but to Subaru those eyes are beautiful and hypnotizing. Realizing he has the Sharingan on, Itachi close his eyes, before they open to the normal black ones.
"Why didn't he kill me?" Itachi stilled, he really didn't want to answer to that, but seeing his eyes, it’s hard to not say no, not when Subaru is like this. He cupped Subaru's cheek with his bandaged hand and pulled him into a kiss, the same kiss that they shared few days ago when Itachi protected him from the woman who intends to kill Subaru. Letting go of the kiss, his lips hovered over his. "Because he has the same look as I do when I look at you, even though he doesn't realize it himself, he cares for you, and that's why he didn't kill you." Subaru looked at him horrified, before looking down, he tightened his grip on Itachi, his tears lessened.
"If you weren't here, would I..." That's the cue for Itachi to tell Subaru not to do it, he pulled his chin up and kissed him, pulling him close.
"Stop right there, don't pull a Sasuke on me if you can help it." Itachi said to him, there is no way he is going to let Subaru pull a Sasuke on him if he can help it. Subaru looked at him, confused about what he meant. Itachi shook his head at him, as if telling him, he'll tell that story someday, perhaps after that Promised Day if they all survived.
________________________________________
"Man, I can't believe that happen when you with Subaru-kun." Sixteen year-old Naruto said as he held hands with Kamui. He looked at Itachi with a raise eyebrow when he saw Itachi holding Subaru in a protective embrace.
"You wouldn't believe the half of if it, if I were to tell you that tree is dangerous since it fed on the life force of people it kills." Naruto stilled, and look down, grimacing at that fact. Kamui looked at him worried, while Subaru looked at Naruto with concern, but worry when he saw his lover's face apologetic face.
"I'm sorry; I didn't mean to bring up that." Naruto shook his head, that war was over and done, he didn't have to face against dead people nor he didn't have to kill a craze maniac by the name of Uchiha Madara, since he was the one that started everything and made a mess on his and Sasuke's lives. Sasuke is dead to Naruto, he couldn't save him, but Naruto is able to save Fuma for Kamui. That is enough, he look at Itachi with a strained smile.
"It’s fine. I don't need anything to remember those memories, but those memories are part of what I am. If I were to continue on, I need to stay in the present and look forward to the future." Naruto said as squeezed Kamui's hand gently as if to make sure that Kamui is still here with him, Kamui squeeze his hand back. Itachi smiled, at least he didn't have to worry about it, he looked down and saw the look that Subaru gave him and chuckled, looks like he and Naruto will have to explain their pasts to Kamui to Subaru. Although Itachi has become Sakurazukamori after killing Seishiro, he pushed against the conscious of the haunted tree and had done a number of tortures towards it with Tsukimori, enough to break the tree's connection with him, making it very wary of him. Itachi still fed with the people who are in near death state, to keep it alive up to the time Naruto comes. Naruto sobered up and looked at Itachi with a determined gaze, now it’s time to get rid of the final piece.
"Where is the tree?" Kamui looked at Naruto with shock, Subaru look at Naruto with vast emotions, but Naruto mentally congratulated Itachi in helping him controlling it. Itachi, however, stared at him with serious gaze.
"It's not far from here." Naruto then look worried at Itachi, but Itachi reassure him, that he'll be fine. Somehow, that didn't ease the nerves on Naruto, but he nodded anyway. The group headed for the tree, the tree itself, it's petals are still in bloom.
"And you say, it feeds on the life force of people?" Naruto asked, disgusted at the fact that tree feeds on people lives, Itachi's face is blank but he nodded anyways. Naruto sighed and let go of Kamui's hand before walking towards the cursed tree. He is almost there when Kamui grabbed his arm and buried his face into the back of his orange yukata.
"Don't go." Naruto looked at Kamui with surprise, before gently prying Kamui's fingers off his sleeve, hands intertwining together. Even though Naruto may have blood over his hands due to being a participant of the Fourth Great Shinobi War and being one of the survivors, he doesn't dwell into the past, and buries his face in Kamui's dark locks of hair.
"I'm not going to leave you anytime soon, I always keep my promises. Believe it, Kamui." It's his nindo, his motto that he always remembered by his heart and soul. He let's go of Kamui when Itachi summoned a kage bushin, and took hold of Kamui's shoulder, enough to make him stay there. Naruto went to the tree, his face determined, and he touched tree calmly with his palm flat against the bark of it, letting it sweep his own life force. Winds pick up, and then a malicious aura surrounded Naruto, more deadly than the ones that were created on the Promised Day. Kamui and Subaru look at Naruto with horrified and amazement, while Itachi look at Naruto as if it was an everyday occurrence. Naruto's whiskers scars stretched a bit, his cerulean's eyes turned red with cats eyes, his nails grew sharp, his teeth grew fangs like a canine, but Naruto's face is still calm.
"Such a tree that exists in this plane, should be long gone. You disgust me." Naruto said with a deep grumbling voice that sent shivers to the group. Then something unexpected happen, the tree let out a high screech, Kamui, Subaru, and Itachi plug their ears with their fingers while Naruto winced at this.
"And you are noisy too, but you've caused enough pain, enough suffering, you need to pass on. Everything that is born from life, they die as well to be reborn, and you too should die. You've grown and you've reached the age of expire long enough to wilt, you corrupted tree." Naruto said, not bothering to hear the tree screeched more, it can take as much of his life force as it wants. However, this life force the tree is taking actually belongs to the Kyuubi's, pure, unfiltered, filled with rage and hatred, life force. Its petals turned to brown and wilted, the tree wrinkled until it burn. The tree caught on fire, that element came from the Kyuubi itself.
"NARUTO!" Kamui would've have gone to Naruto to get him out of the fire, but Itachi's shadow clone gripped his shoulder tightly putting him in place. Subaru looked at Itachi, knowing that he knows something and that he isn't being concerned at all, Itachi's eyes are closed and both Subaru and Kamui felt a wave of life force, as if its finding someone. Then they heard his voice, Itachi's eyes opened with relief.
"Maa, maa, you don't have to shout Kamui. I'm fine, though I'm not sure about the tree." Naruto said, as he came out of the fire, his orange yukata a bit burn, his face with a bit ash and soot, but his eyes are blue, his whisker marks are back to normal, his finger nails grew back to normal human size, and he smile without any fangs. The tree was burned down, to ashes, and was gone, just like that. The shadow clone poofed, and Kamui ran towards Naruto, hugging him with relief; that he is still here with him. Subaru smiled at this, but grew worried when he felt an extra weight leaning on to him and notice that Itachi is sweating and a bit pale.
"I'm really sorry, Itachi. I tried not to hurt you in the process, but..." Itachi shook his head, he leaned into Subaru's support and smirk at Naruto.
"It's fine, as long I don't have that tree's voice in my head, I'll don't have to worry about killing another person for it to feed because of its hunger." Naruto smile, though peace may be boring for both of them, then again nothing is peaceful with both Itachi and Naruto around to create things more memorable. Subaru, swat Itachi's head lightly and Itachi chuckled.
"I'm guessing that you and Kamui-kun want an explanation, correct?" Subaru gave him a glare, Kamui shook his head, as long as Naruto is with him, he is fine with Naruto not telling him until later when everything is settle down.
"You've been holding it too long, although I was able to pick up facts here and there and I was wondering when you'll burst, it’s still doesn't add up." Itachi chuckles before smirking mischievously at him, squeezing Subaru's shoulder gently.
"We'll explain, but can it wait for tomorrow. I still need to rest, and you are already making me more injured than before." Itachi teased Subaru who blush at this, and was about apologize when he heard laughing. Naruto is laughing with Kamui, and Subaru's blush lessened as he looked at them. He doesn't have the heart to ruin the atmosphere, perhaps it’s easier to hear tomorrow.
"Fine, but you’re sleeping on the couch." Itachi resisted to whine, it wasn't in his character, and settled for pouting, making Naruto and Kamui laugh harder till their stomach hurts. Even if Subaru were to say that to Itachi, Itachi is still a ninja and always will be a ninja, and ninjas tend to bend or break rules depending on this situation. All Itachi had to do, is to sneak into Subaru's room unnoticed, quiet, and unannounced, and sleep right next to him. Piece of cake, right? Though he might have to tell Naruto to restrain Kamui for him after explain everything fully.
________________________________________
Omake: After the Explanation
Subaru stared. Itachi shifted. Kamui glared. Naruto scratches his cheek nervously.
"So both of you were part of this shinobi military police force that follows this Kage leader from another world." Itachi coughed, correcting Subaru about this explanation.
"Correction, I was part of an elite force, ANBU, Ansatsu Senjutsu Tokushu Brutai, it's a special force for assassination and tactical squad. Basically, we take very dangerous missions that nobody wants to do, and we also act as a force to protect our leader, the Kage." Subaru blinked, Kamui blinked, this is slightly different than they expected and slightly similar to their positions.
"Is that why you are used to killing people and can stand the pain?" Itachi wince slightly, he sort of knew that question would come up.
"Yes, although I have killed, it doesn't mean I have to like it. Speaking of being killed, Naruto-kun, what happened to Danzo-san?" Itachi look at Naruto, slightly surprise to see him twitch.
"Sasuke." Itachi's eyes widen and sulk, he sort of expected that answer, but his poor otouto. Subaru look over at Itachi slightly worried and rubbed his back a bit.
"And what about you, Naruto-kun?" Naruto shrugged and smirk.
"Gennin." Itachi snorted, and mutters something like 'Gennin my ass, he has the freaking Kyuubi no Kitsune with him' along with the words of ‘being kage/sannin-level’, Naruto snickered. Kamui and Subaru look at each other, confused. It's going to be a few long days for both shinobis to explain it to the two Seals fully, and letting the information sink in.

Title: Deal with a Demon
Pairings: Shiro Kamui x Michaelis Sebastian
Category: X/1999 x Kuroshitsuji
Rating: M - Slightly Disturbing Scene ((A/N: I'm afraid that if I were to see a Kamui/Sebastian pairing, I think Sebastian will take over Fuma's spot in being a sadist. I mean, he is a demon after all.))
Genre: Drama, Angst, Romance, Supernatural, Suspense, Mystery, Tragedy
Warming: I'm sorry if the characters are a bit OOCiness, but that's what made this short more fun to write about. This one also, I have reasons for this one as well. Ever wonder what would happen if our favorite Black Butler decided to interfere?
Note: Suddenly the thought of adding Grell in this, will be slightly disturbing and very humorous. If I were torture someone, using Grell, I have three people I'm willing to try it on. Fuma and Seishiro are my favorite villainous characters, I feel slightly sorry for using Grell on them, but it's tempting. The third, I don't feel sorry for, and he is Gin from Detective Conan. He is a scary, cool and cold murderer kind of guy that makes you want to stay 100 miles off his radius and be three or two steps ahead of him if his target is you.
_____________________________
((A/N: At first, I decided to try a Subaru/Sebastian pairing, but well I decided to do this pairing as well))
Kamui panted out of breath, his eyesight is fogging and warm slick liquid dripped down from his forehead to his arms. He looked at Fuma who is hovering over him with a malicious smile, as he was about to struck down from his raised blade, Kamui close his eyes, but no impact. Time has froze, Kamui opened his eyes, Fuma frozen in mid-pause and Kamui look everywhere, shadows twist and turn, a black portal opened and a person with black wings, red eyes and a chilling smile came out. Part of his outfit reminds Kamui of a butler, while his shoes made him question himself in his mind. Who on earth, especially a guy, wear high heeled leather shoes?
"I never expect for the one to call me would be you, especially from someone fated from that prophecy." The handsome man said as he looked at Kamui with interest and darkness. Kamui froze when he saw the smile and red eyes. The man walked, or sauntered towards Kamui. His gloved hands reached for his face.
"Poor master, broken, tired and miserable. Having a lot of weight on your shoulders, your family sacrificed for you to live, your mentor and friend died to save you, your army crumbled, your princess went insane, your friend killed his sister and decided to kill you next." Kamui shivered as the man licked up the blood of his neck, his voice filled with sweet and dangerous promise.
"Tell me, master, what is your wish?" Kamui glared at the man's eyes, the man's red eyes look at him with curiosity with an empty smile on his face.
"And if you were able to grant my wish?" The man smirked at him.
"Usually, I eat a person's soul if I grant my master's wish. But since you are the one fate and destined from the prophecy. There's no doubt that you are also part of the Magami clan, you will have to stay eternally with me along with giving up your faith." Kamui paused, could he do it? Make that deal with a demon, if Subaru was here, he would scold him to do that. If Arashi, Sorta and the rest of the Dragons of Heaven and two Dragons of Earth were still here, they'll pull him out of it and be there with him. If Hinoto doesn't have that evil side taking over her, then Subaru wouldn't lose that eye. If Fuma hadn't been the twin star, he wouldn't kill his sister and protect her. If it wasn't for that prophecy, he would still have his family and none of this would have happened, so Kamui smiled bitterly, no one is going to miss him anyway.
"I want to end this prophecy; I want the Earth to still live, with people around. That is my wish." The demon smiled at this, the Fraust contract is placed on his right hand, and the deal is done.
"My name is Michaelis Sebastian, and I will grant you, your wish. My lord." The demon bowed at him before scooping him up in bridal style and takes him back to the campus. Time restart and the sword crashed against the concrete. Nokoru won't be happy when he hears that a demon enters the campus, especially if the said demon made a contract with Kamui.

Rating: T
Genre: Drama, Humor, Romance, Supernatural, Suspense
Warming: I'm sorry if the characters are a bit OOCiness, but that's what made this short more fun to write about. This one also, I have reasons for this one as well. Ever wonder what would happen if our favorite Black Butler decided to serve an omnyoji?
Note: The thought of Subaru x Sebastian is too tempting, I think I have a crush on that pairing. The idea of the costume for Subaru, I can't resist.
_____________________________
Somehow, this had gone out of hand. He is force to dress in another embarrassing costume, by his sister and her fiancée of all people. Hokuto had an idea, and decided that her twin will definitely look cute in it. Kakyou agreed, and decided to help, which seems strange for Subaru. So after being shoved into a changing room by his sister, he struggled with the clothes she is forcing him to wear, nearly was strangled by said clothes itself, and is pushed out after finally being done. Kakyou took one look at Subaru, and fought hard not to laugh at him. This is embarrassing. Sebastian, who felt the embarrassment and earlier fright from his master through the contract on his hand, open the doors of his master's room to make sure he is alright.
"My Lord, are you-" Whatever was Sebastian was going to say next, is stuck in his throat. Standing in front of him, is his master wearing a rather attractive costume. Subaru is wearing leather pants with a toy cat's tail tied around his waist, a white v-neck shirt, exposing some parts of his chest, his master wore cat paws on his hands, around his neck is a collar with a bell, and on his head are cat ears.
"S-Sebastian-san." The demon wished he hadn't looked at his master, but Subaru is blushing that trademark blush that made Sebastian's stomach do flip flops. In other words, Sebastian thought his master looks cute and alluring enough to be eaten alive by someone.
"What do you think, Sebastian-san? Doesn't he look gorgeous and alluring for Seishiro-san?" Hokuto asked, and Sebastian restrain the growl that was about to emit from his lips. The demon within him, roared, Subaru is his prey and master, only his, no one else. Sebastian smiles, even though there is a twitch at the ends of his lips.
"Yes, he does. However, he looks uncomfortable. Perhaps, it would be best for me to help him dress appropriately. Excuse me." And without any hesitation, he nearly threw Hokuto and Kakyou out of his master's room, and close the doors shut. Hokuto look confused, but Kakyou kept on snickering, poor Subaru, there is going to be more competition for him. He made a bet with Kusanagi and Sorta that Sebastian would win, much to the shock of Sorta, since he thought it'll be Seishiro and skeptic for Kusanagi. Subaru looked at his demon butler, confused. His demon butler however, smiled at him, searched through the drawers and took the ones appropriately for his day out with Seishiro. After Subaru went to his bathroom, still confused, Sebastian leaned against the door of his master's bedroom and groaned. Seeing Subaru in that costume, it almost made Sebastian pounce on him. Not to mention, the sudden possessiveness and jealously of Seishiro going to be with Subaru for a whole day didn't help either.
However, Sebastian is a demon, and a demon does tend to possessive when he or she felt his or her territory get threatened of being taken away. Sebastian eyes glow dark red and he let a wicked smile creep on him, there is certainly no way in seven levels of hell he is going to let that Sakurazukamori claim his prey from him, not when he is this delicious as he is now. After all, Subaru had already made a contract with him. Being marked by an assassin, meant death, but by a demon, meant you are going to be eaten by it after it fulfills your wish or you'll stay with it for all eternity as its lover. Sebastian, at least, believe that Subaru will choose the second one, making his grin grew, it's all the matter of manipulation and persuasion. He dropped the grin and replaced that smile with a charming one when his master came back with less revealing clothes.

Read and Review
Category: Clamp and expect some crossovers
Rating: Ranges from T to NC-17 (Due to some graphic scenes, language, blood, a bit of violence, and some hotness in some of these shorts and shots) Part VI is T that is slightly bordering to NC-17
Genre: Mostly Romance, Hurt/Comfort, Humor, Angst a bit of horror, friendship, tragedy, and supernatural.
Note: I'm slightly pissed of due to the fact I cannot post the whole thing on a single entry, so I'll try and post this in halves or quarters.
Note: After reading some SubaruxSakura fics, which I admit is now one of my favorite crossovers pairing, I ended up having a weird craving for a SubaruxSakuraxKamui fic. So, um from that point on, I think the crack bug struck me again and made me imagine more, and more of them. I wanted sleep badly, so I'm going to do something about it. I swear whenever I think of crossover pairings, it leads to some that isn't there on FF. net. Which makes me wonder *rushes to the window and yells: WHERE THE HECK ARE YOU PEOPLE? 'cough'* I'm not sure if I put most of the characters in their characters, so um yeah. ^_^'' That said, let's begin with the collection.
Disclaimer: Honestly I don't want to do the disclaimer, but since I wrote several of crossover pairings and some of them are pairings just from the anime or yaoi. Half of them I have no idea where they come from, so I guess, I'll have to do it anyway.
Let's see:
- Card Captors Sakura, Tokyo Babylon, X/1999, and Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicles belong to CLAMP
- Yu-Gi-Oh belongs to Kazuki Takahashi
- NARUTO belongs to Massashi Kishimoto
- D. Gray-Man belongs to Katsura Hoshino
- DNAngel belongs to Yukiru Sugisaki
- Detective Conan/Magic Kaitou to Gosho Aoyama
- Kuroshitsuji belongs to Yana Toboso
- Pandora Hearts belongs to Jun Mochizuki
- 'Why' belongs to Ayaka
- 'You are my love' belongs to Yui Makino

Genre: Drama, Hurt/Comfort, Romance, and One-Sided Romance? Maybe
Warming: I'm sorry if the characters are a bit OOCiness, but that's what made this short more fun to write about.
Note: The thought of adding Tyki into this one was nagging me, on sadistic level, Tyki can be a sadist if he wants to. He could touch things that he want, and the things he doesn't, will pass through him like it was nothing. Also, the idea of Tyki x Subaru pairing is almost like Seishiro x Subaru, except perhaps in a whole new level of possessiveness or playfullness...I rather not know.
On another note, who wouldn't want to see Tyki vs Seishiro, in a showdown but if I were to vote, I vote for Tyki to win. Sorry, Seishiro fans out there.
____________________________
The white piano stood in front of him, Neah, hadn't touch it since his host's death, but the music itself has always been part of him since birth. If given the time and chance, he would have love to get to know his adorable nephew, but that time his host and he was born in, isn't one of their best. After the Holy War, Neah became the Millennium Earl, and it didn't help the fact that Allen is dead to him. Tyki followed Neah, traveling and to stall his own nightmares from the horrors of the war. That's when they came back, to see that Japan has changed since the war, but some of the prophecies hadn't been fulfilled as Hevalaska said on her last breath to Neah. One war is waiting for the Promised Day, to decide the fate of the future for Earth. Neah snorted, whichever side you join, there is always pros and cons. Brushing away the memories, Neah gulped and play the still clean white piano. His heart calm down marginally and he listen to the music he played.
It was the only comfort for him, and reminded him of being The Musician and The Destroyer of the Noahs, much like Allen being The Destroyer of the Millennium. He heard a gasp and Neah paused to look at the person who came into his room within the White Ark, Kamui. Kamui stare at Neah with amazement, he never heard of the brilliant music play by Neah. Neah's eyes soften, Kamui reminded him so much of Allen, minus his other personality, Black Allen.
"What are you doing here, Kamui-kun?" Neah reminded himself, that although he may look seventeen, he is still older than the boy at his door. Kamui blushed at being caught, but Neah smiled at him, and gestured for him to continue on what he wanted to talk about.
"Neah-san, I was wondering, why are you helping me?" Neah's eyes widen, of all the questions, he surely hadn't expected that. He pats the seat right next to him, signaling for Kamui to sit right next to him. Neah began to play another song, the Lullaby he and Mana created.
"You remind me of someone I once met, he's very much like you, except for the other personality he has with him. My late elder brother adopted him." Neah smile, he remembered everything easily, the bloodshed, the Innocence, The Central falling, and how Allen won the Holy War, dying on his last breath.
"You’re late brother? Not Tyki?"
"No, Tyki is part of the clan I have to join because of who I am."
"The Noah Clan?"
"That's right."
"So where is your nephew?" Neah closed his eyes, and continued to play the music.
"Dead, he died saving the world on his very last breath."
"I'm sorry."
"Don't, you weren't there when it happened and you weren't born at that time, so it’s not your fault."
"What was his name?" Neah stopped playing and breathe in a deep breath before looking at Kamui, he ruffled his brown hair, like how he ruffled Allen's in the mindscape. Kamui was about to swat his hand away when he saw that distant smile on Neah's face.
"Allen Walker." Kamui touched the Noah's gray wrist and blushed; he couldn't help but feel jealous of Allen because Allen was important to Neah.
"May I know more about him?" Neah looked at Kamui with surprise, but he smile gently.
"It may take awhile though." Kamui look at him, determined to know more about the nephew that Neah spoke so fondly about. Seeing that look, Neah chuckles, it's the same look when Allen is determined to make everything alright and he began to tell the tale of a boy, who is unlucky as he could be, is one of the greatest people he ever respected and very important to him.
________________________________________
Tyki mutters a curse at Neah or wherever he is now currently in the Ark, really, why does he have to babysit this guy? Then again, it’s the said guy made him feel partly interested. Taking out a cigarette from his pants pocket, he smokes. It’s not like whole world will turn upside down without him watching the guy.
"What are you doing here, Tyki?"
"You really are interesting, shounen." Tyki couldn't help it, but the nickname for Allen just slipped out.
"Did you just call me, kid?" Subaru asked when he looked at Tyki with a cigarette in between his two fingers.
"Does it really matter?" Tyki asked flamboyantly with a smirk, Subaru narrowed his eyes at him.
"Feh, if Cheating Boy A was still alive, he would say that even though that you are chosen or marked, you make your path that satisfies your heart." Subaru glanced at him; Tyki hadn't looked at him as he smoke the cigarette in his mouth.
"You are a Noah, basically you can't die." Tyki looked at Subaru, and snorted. Those accounts in those archives are wrong.
"No, we can die from an element called Innocence, and we can reincarnate as easy as normal people, just much faster." Subaru looked at Tyki with curiosity.
"There was this guy that came close to killing me, he is one unlucky kid. Makes you wonder, what could have happen if he is still alive." Tyki said as he smiled bitterly, he and Neah, hadn't been able to grief properly for Allen, as they kept on running to clear their minds from that war.
"Why are you telling me this?" Tyki looked at Subaru, and thought over the answer he is going to give.
"You know, I don't know myself." Tyki said as he crushed the cigarette he let go with his shoe.
"But remember this, if that Sakurazukamori comes to kill you, I'll kill him for taking something away from me." Tyki said, leaving before Subaru could even give his reply or protest to the White Ark's library. That Sakurazukamori will probably die if I were to go against him. Perhaps, I'll keep his prey hidden from him, since that prey itself interests me.

Omake: Define Insanity
“Are you insane?” Kamui ask Tyki with a wary look when presented the plan to fight Seishiro heads on. Tyki smirked.
“Define insanity for me will you? Then we can continue on to this discussion.” Kamui face palmed, Neah shook his head in amusement while Tyki snickered. There is no doubt that Tyki have the strength and skill to defeat Seishiro easily hands down. It is also a good thing Subaru wasn’t around to hear what they were talking about it.
((A/N: Me: Who wouldn’t want to see that match? *grins before yelling* Round 1, commence!))

Warming: I'm sorry if the characters are a bit OOCiness, but that's what made this one-shot more fun to write about.
Note: The thought of adding some characters from NARUTO is so tempting, that I couldn't resist.
Other than that, I was thinking of what would happen if Kyuubi's life force/chakra came intact with the Evil Sakura Tree. I mean c'mon, what tree takes the souls of the living and used them as protection for a country, I heard of trees trapping souls due to people suiciding but this, is the first I ever heard. Then again, I'm arguing about someone else's plot story in an anime//manga where I'm going for being logical in the real world.
____________________________
Although Itachi is figuratively and literally dead, Naruto is still alive, how they end up traveling to another world, none of them have a clue. And what's even weirder is that Itachi has his body back, the same one before he died. Another weird fact is that, Naruto had shrunk to the size of being a toddler, which irked him and made Itachi chuckle at this. After scouting and waiting for information which took the first five months, they were able to blend in and change their appearances. It was another week later when both ninjas found out in this world, there is going to be an upcoming war that will decide the fate of the Earth. Itachi watched Naruto, his hands clenched out of frustration and helplessness.
"Naruto-kun..." Blue eyes filled with determination stared at the onyx calculating ones.
"I don't want them to suffer, even though I don't know these people, I don't want something like this to happen to them. Itachi, you find Subaru-kun, I'll find Kamui-kun. From there, we’ll do our best to protect them." After that, Naruto disappeared in search for a person named Shiro Kamui. Itachi stood there and stared where Naruto stood, before smirking. It can't be helped, if Naruto sets his mind on something, he is determined to do it.
"I better help him. Naruto-kun better be alive when we meet somewhere later in the future." Itachi, himself, doesn't care for the future, but if things were messed up and are similar to their world, Itachi is willing to put his life on the line and help Naruto in preventing the future from coming. Naruto does carry Kami's will after all.
________________________________________
Perfect calculating onyx eyes stare into innocent green ones in a hypnotizing gaze. Itachi raised an eyebrow at the shy teen.
“Can I help you with something?” Green eyes widen, and the teen tried to scramble out the words. Itachi smirked in amusement before letting out a low chuckle that made the teen stare at him.
“How about let’s make it easier, my name is Uchiha Itachi. I’m your new neighbor.” The teen stare at him shyly with a blush on his face, Itachi admits that the teen is cute but not out loud.
“My name is Sumeragi Subaru.” Itachi smirk grew just slightly; being near his assignment will make his mission slightly easier.
________________________________________
Subaru cried under the sakura tree, holding his dead sister's body to him. Itachi clenched his hands, he was too late to save the person that his precious one loves. This scene was all too familiar to him, Shishu dead with one eye removed, Itachi vomited out and cried over his best friend's dead body before throwing it into the river. Itachi pulling out the sword that he had struck through his own father, and made Sasuke getting stronger and coming at him with the intent to kill filled with rage and revenge.
However, this scene also reminds him of his former ex-ANBU Captain, Hakate Kakashi. He lost his friend and his own eye during an ambush, but his friend's last words are giving his own eye to him and use it, so both can see the future together. A perfect example of a genius not going to become insane or go rogue, unlike other geniuses like Oroichimaru or himself. From there, Kakashi acts a bit like his late cousin, Obito, and for Sasuke is, when Itachi killed his own clan, Sasuke became Itachi after he killed him. Itachi silently prayed that Subaru wouldn't pull a Sasuke on him, even if he had to say it verbally out loud. Other than that, Itachi's eyes narrowed and his eyes turned into those cursed eyes he hates since he was a tween, he'll kill Seishiro for hurting Subaru.
Itachi doesn't mind being a Sakurazukamori, it’s almost like being part of ANBU or being part of Akatsuki again, with the killings, but Itachi hates killing, and he’ll have to find people to kill that won’t be missed. He needs to wait for Naruto to come with Kamui to get rid of the tree, the tree itself feeds on the life force of the people it kills. If that was true, then the life force equals to chakra, then it'll have a negative effect if it comes in contact with the Kyuubi’s chakra itself, so therefore he could wait for a few years or months before Naruto gets here and meets up with them. What he needs to do is comfort Subaru, so he went near Subaru and gathered him in his arms, forcing Subaru to let go of Hokuto’s lifeless body. Seeing him cry, is enough for him to build anger and hatred over the tree itself.
"Shh, Subaru." Itachi could barely hear Subaru from the sounds of crying he made.
"Why did Seishiro-san did it, Itachi?" Itachi stilled, he himself don't know why and there are a lot of reasons he could say about that Sakurazukamori, but then again Itachi was an ex-ANBU Captain himself, and ex-nukenin, and what Sakurazukamori did earlier, he suppress the cold shudder running up and down his spine, the Sakurazukamori made him remind what he did to Sasuke. He tightened his grip around Subaru, kisses his head, his forehead, and his tears.
"There are so many reasons for why he did it, out of pleasure, out of request, out of mind, or..." Itachi hesitates on the last reason, he didn't want Subaru to hear it, no matter how hard it was for him to say it to Sasuke. "He wants you to be strong, strong enough for you to face him." Subaru stilled, his tears didn't stop as they continued down the trail on his cheeks. His green eyes look at Itachi, and Itachi thought he look like Sasuke. Innocent and naive, overshadowed by the ones they love. Subaru is stunned, seeing red eyes with tomes swirling in a circular motion for the first time instead of the guarded black onyx warm eyes that he usually sees .Itachi mentioned he have this eye condition that is rare, that it cannot be found on medical books because it is yet to be found. He explained that some parts of his family view this as shame due to a genetic mutation, but to Subaru those eyes are beautiful and hypnotizing. Realizing he has the Sharingan on, Itachi close his eyes, before they open to the normal black ones.
"Why didn't he kill me?" Itachi stilled, he really didn't want to answer to that, but seeing his eyes, it’s hard to not say no, not when Subaru is like this. He cupped Subaru's cheek with his bandaged hand and pulled him into a kiss, the same kiss that they shared few days ago when Itachi protected him from the woman who intends to kill Subaru. Letting go of the kiss, his lips hovered over his. "Because he has the same look as I do when I look at you, even though he doesn't realize it himself, he cares for you, and that's why he didn't kill you." Subaru looked at him horrified, before looking down, he tightened his grip on Itachi, his tears lessened.
"If you weren't here, would I..." That's the cue for Itachi to tell Subaru not to do it, he pulled his chin up and kissed him, pulling him close.
"Stop right there, don't pull a Sasuke on me if you can help it." Itachi said to him, there is no way he is going to let Subaru pull a Sasuke on him if he can help it. Subaru looked at him, confused about what he meant. Itachi shook his head at him, as if telling him, he'll tell that story someday, perhaps after that Promised Day if they all survived.
________________________________________
"Man, I can't believe that happen when you with Subaru-kun." Sixteen year-old Naruto said as he held hands with Kamui. He looked at Itachi with a raise eyebrow when he saw Itachi holding Subaru in a protective embrace.
"You wouldn't believe the half of if it, if I were to tell you that tree is dangerous since it fed on the life force of people it kills." Naruto stilled, and look down, grimacing at that fact. Kamui looked at him worried, while Subaru looked at Naruto with concern, but worry when he saw his lover's face apologetic face.
"I'm sorry; I didn't mean to bring up that." Naruto shook his head, that war was over and done, he didn't have to face against dead people nor he didn't have to kill a craze maniac by the name of Uchiha Madara, since he was the one that started everything and made a mess on his and Sasuke's lives. Sasuke is dead to Naruto, he couldn't save him, but Naruto is able to save Fuma for Kamui. That is enough, he look at Itachi with a strained smile.
"It’s fine. I don't need anything to remember those memories, but those memories are part of what I am. If I were to continue on, I need to stay in the present and look forward to the future." Naruto said as squeezed Kamui's hand gently as if to make sure that Kamui is still here with him, Kamui squeeze his hand back. Itachi smiled, at least he didn't have to worry about it, he looked down and saw the look that Subaru gave him and chuckled, looks like he and Naruto will have to explain their pasts to Kamui to Subaru. Although Itachi has become Sakurazukamori after killing Seishiro, he pushed against the conscious of the haunted tree and had done a number of tortures towards it with Tsukimori, enough to break the tree's connection with him, making it very wary of him. Itachi still fed with the people who are in near death state, to keep it alive up to the time Naruto comes. Naruto sobered up and looked at Itachi with a determined gaze, now it’s time to get rid of the final piece.
"Where is the tree?" Kamui looked at Naruto with shock, Subaru look at Naruto with vast emotions, but Naruto mentally congratulated Itachi in helping him controlling it. Itachi, however, stared at him with serious gaze.
"It's not far from here." Naruto then look worried at Itachi, but Itachi reassure him, that he'll be fine. Somehow, that didn't ease the nerves on Naruto, but he nodded anyway. The group headed for the tree, the tree itself, it's petals are still in bloom.
"And you say, it feeds on the life force of people?" Naruto asked, disgusted at the fact that tree feeds on people lives, Itachi's face is blank but he nodded anyways. Naruto sighed and let go of Kamui's hand before walking towards the cursed tree. He is almost there when Kamui grabbed his arm and buried his face into the back of his orange yukata.
"Don't go." Naruto looked at Kamui with surprise, before gently prying Kamui's fingers off his sleeve, hands intertwining together. Even though Naruto may have blood over his hands due to being a participant of the Fourth Great Shinobi War and being one of the survivors, he doesn't dwell into the past, and buries his face in Kamui's dark locks of hair.
"I'm not going to leave you anytime soon, I always keep my promises. Believe it, Kamui." It's his nindo, his motto that he always remembered by his heart and soul. He let's go of Kamui when Itachi summoned a kage bushin, and took hold of Kamui's shoulder, enough to make him stay there. Naruto went to the tree, his face determined, and he touched tree calmly with his palm flat against the bark of it, letting it sweep his own life force. Winds pick up, and then a malicious aura surrounded Naruto, more deadly than the ones that were created on the Promised Day. Kamui and Subaru look at Naruto with horrified and amazement, while Itachi look at Naruto as if it was an everyday occurrence. Naruto's whiskers scars stretched a bit, his cerulean's eyes turned red with cats eyes, his nails grew sharp, his teeth grew fangs like a canine, but Naruto's face is still calm.
"Such a tree that exists in this plane, should be long gone. You disgust me." Naruto said with a deep grumbling voice that sent shivers to the group. Then something unexpected happen, the tree let out a high screech, Kamui, Subaru, and Itachi plug their ears with their fingers while Naruto winced at this.
"And you are noisy too, but you've caused enough pain, enough suffering, you need to pass on. Everything that is born from life, they die as well to be reborn, and you too should die. You've grown and you've reached the age of expire long enough to wilt, you corrupted tree." Naruto said, not bothering to hear the tree screeched more, it can take as much of his life force as it wants. However, this life force the tree is taking actually belongs to the Kyuubi's, pure, unfiltered, filled with rage and hatred, life force. Its petals turned to brown and wilted, the tree wrinkled until it burn. The tree caught on fire, that element came from the Kyuubi itself.
"NARUTO!" Kamui would've have gone to Naruto to get him out of the fire, but Itachi's shadow clone gripped his shoulder tightly putting him in place. Subaru looked at Itachi, knowing that he knows something and that he isn't being concerned at all, Itachi's eyes are closed and both Subaru and Kamui felt a wave of life force, as if its finding someone. Then they heard his voice, Itachi's eyes opened with relief.
"Maa, maa, you don't have to shout Kamui. I'm fine, though I'm not sure about the tree." Naruto said, as he came out of the fire, his orange yukata a bit burn, his face with a bit ash and soot, but his eyes are blue, his whisker marks are back to normal, his finger nails grew back to normal human size, and he smile without any fangs. The tree was burned down, to ashes, and was gone, just like that. The shadow clone poofed, and Kamui ran towards Naruto, hugging him with relief; that he is still here with him. Subaru smiled at this, but grew worried when he felt an extra weight leaning on to him and notice that Itachi is sweating and a bit pale.
"I'm really sorry, Itachi. I tried not to hurt you in the process, but..." Itachi shook his head, he leaned into Subaru's support and smirk at Naruto.
"It's fine, as long I don't have that tree's voice in my head, I'll don't have to worry about killing another person for it to feed because of its hunger." Naruto smile, though peace may be boring for both of them, then again nothing is peaceful with both Itachi and Naruto around to create things more memorable. Subaru, swat Itachi's head lightly and Itachi chuckled.
"I'm guessing that you and Kamui-kun want an explanation, correct?" Subaru gave him a glare, Kamui shook his head, as long as Naruto is with him, he is fine with Naruto not telling him until later when everything is settle down.
"You've been holding it too long, although I was able to pick up facts here and there and I was wondering when you'll burst, it’s still doesn't add up." Itachi chuckles before smirking mischievously at him, squeezing Subaru's shoulder gently.
"We'll explain, but can it wait for tomorrow. I still need to rest, and you are already making me more injured than before." Itachi teased Subaru who blush at this, and was about apologize when he heard laughing. Naruto is laughing with Kamui, and Subaru's blush lessened as he looked at them. He doesn't have the heart to ruin the atmosphere, perhaps it’s easier to hear tomorrow.
"Fine, but you’re sleeping on the couch." Itachi resisted to whine, it wasn't in his character, and settled for pouting, making Naruto and Kamui laugh harder till their stomach hurts. Even if Subaru were to say that to Itachi, Itachi is still a ninja and always will be a ninja, and ninjas tend to bend or break rules depending on this situation. All Itachi had to do, is to sneak into Subaru's room unnoticed, quiet, and unannounced, and sleep right next to him. Piece of cake, right? Though he might have to tell Naruto to restrain Kamui for him after explain everything fully.
________________________________________
Omake: After the Explanation
Subaru stared. Itachi shifted. Kamui glared. Naruto scratches his cheek nervously.
"So both of you were part of this shinobi military police force that follows this Kage leader from another world." Itachi coughed, correcting Subaru about this explanation.
"Correction, I was part of an elite force, ANBU, Ansatsu Senjutsu Tokushu Brutai, it's a special force for assassination and tactical squad. Basically, we take very dangerous missions that nobody wants to do, and we also act as a force to protect our leader, the Kage." Subaru blinked, Kamui blinked, this is slightly different than they expected and slightly similar to their positions.
"Is that why you are used to killing people and can stand the pain?" Itachi wince slightly, he sort of knew that question would come up.
"Yes, although I have killed, it doesn't mean I have to like it. Speaking of being killed, Naruto-kun, what happened to Danzo-san?" Itachi look at Naruto, slightly surprise to see him twitch.
"Sasuke." Itachi's eyes widen and sulk, he sort of expected that answer, but his poor otouto. Subaru look over at Itachi slightly worried and rubbed his back a bit.
"And what about you, Naruto-kun?" Naruto shrugged and smirk.
"Gennin." Itachi snorted, and mutters something like 'Gennin my ass, he has the freaking Kyuubi no Kitsune with him' along with the words of ‘being kage/sannin-level’, Naruto snickered. Kamui and Subaru look at each other, confused. It's going to be a few long days for both shinobis to explain it to the two Seals fully, and letting the information sink in.

Rating: M - Slightly Disturbing Scene ((A/N: I'm afraid that if I were to see a Kamui/Sebastian pairing, I think Sebastian will take over Fuma's spot in being a sadist. I mean, he is a demon after all.))
Genre: Drama, Angst, Romance, Supernatural, Suspense, Mystery, Tragedy
Warming: I'm sorry if the characters are a bit OOCiness, but that's what made this short more fun to write about. This one also, I have reasons for this one as well. Ever wonder what would happen if our favorite Black Butler decided to interfere?
Note: Suddenly the thought of adding Grell in this, will be slightly disturbing and very humorous. If I were torture someone, using Grell, I have three people I'm willing to try it on. Fuma and Seishiro are my favorite villainous characters, I feel slightly sorry for using Grell on them, but it's tempting. The third, I don't feel sorry for, and he is Gin from Detective Conan. He is a scary, cool and cold murderer kind of guy that makes you want to stay 100 miles off his radius and be three or two steps ahead of him if his target is you.

((A/N: At first, I decided to try a Subaru/Sebastian pairing, but well I decided to do this pairing as well))
Kamui panted out of breath, his eyesight is fogging and warm slick liquid dripped down from his forehead to his arms. He looked at Fuma who is hovering over him with a malicious smile, as he was about to struck down from his raised blade, Kamui close his eyes, but no impact. Time has froze, Kamui opened his eyes, Fuma frozen in mid-pause and Kamui look everywhere, shadows twist and turn, a black portal opened and a person with black wings, red eyes and a chilling smile came out. Part of his outfit reminds Kamui of a butler, while his shoes made him question himself in his mind. Who on earth, especially a guy, wear high heeled leather shoes?
"I never expect for the one to call me would be you, especially from someone fated from that prophecy." The handsome man said as he looked at Kamui with interest and darkness. Kamui froze when he saw the smile and red eyes. The man walked, or sauntered towards Kamui. His gloved hands reached for his face.
"Poor master, broken, tired and miserable. Having a lot of weight on your shoulders, your family sacrificed for you to live, your mentor and friend died to save you, your army crumbled, your princess went insane, your friend killed his sister and decided to kill you next." Kamui shivered as the man licked up the blood of his neck, his voice filled with sweet and dangerous promise.
"Tell me, master, what is your wish?" Kamui glared at the man's eyes, the man's red eyes look at him with curiosity with an empty smile on his face.
"And if you were able to grant my wish?" The man smirked at him.
"Usually, I eat a person's soul if I grant my master's wish. But since you are the one fate and destined from the prophecy. There's no doubt that you are also part of the Magami clan, you will have to stay eternally with me along with giving up your faith." Kamui paused, could he do it? Make that deal with a demon, if Subaru was here, he would scold him to do that. If Arashi, Sorta and the rest of the Dragons of Heaven and two Dragons of Earth were still here, they'll pull him out of it and be there with him. If Hinoto doesn't have that evil side taking over her, then Subaru wouldn't lose that eye. If Fuma hadn't been the twin star, he wouldn't kill his sister and protect her. If it wasn't for that prophecy, he would still have his family and none of this would have happened, so Kamui smiled bitterly, no one is going to miss him anyway.
"I want to end this prophecy; I want the Earth to still live, with people around. That is my wish." The demon smiled at this, the Fraust contract is placed on his right hand, and the deal is done.
"My name is Michaelis Sebastian, and I will grant you, your wish. My lord." The demon bowed at him before scooping him up in bridal style and takes him back to the campus. Time restart and the sword crashed against the concrete. Nokoru won't be happy when he hears that a demon enters the campus, especially if the said demon made a contract with Kamui.

Warming: I'm sorry if the characters are a bit OOCiness, but that's what made this short more fun to write about. This one also, I have reasons for this one as well. Ever wonder what would happen if our favorite Black Butler decided to serve an omnyoji?
Note: The thought of Subaru x Sebastian is too tempting, I think I have a crush on that pairing. The idea of the costume for Subaru, I can't resist.
_____________________________
Somehow, this had gone out of hand. He is force to dress in another embarrassing costume, by his sister and her fiancée of all people. Hokuto had an idea, and decided that her twin will definitely look cute in it. Kakyou agreed, and decided to help, which seems strange for Subaru. So after being shoved into a changing room by his sister, he struggled with the clothes she is forcing him to wear, nearly was strangled by said clothes itself, and is pushed out after finally being done. Kakyou took one look at Subaru, and fought hard not to laugh at him. This is embarrassing. Sebastian, who felt the embarrassment and earlier fright from his master through the contract on his hand, open the doors of his master's room to make sure he is alright.
"My Lord, are you-" Whatever was Sebastian was going to say next, is stuck in his throat. Standing in front of him, is his master wearing a rather attractive costume. Subaru is wearing leather pants with a toy cat's tail tied around his waist, a white v-neck shirt, exposing some parts of his chest, his master wore cat paws on his hands, around his neck is a collar with a bell, and on his head are cat ears.
"S-Sebastian-san." The demon wished he hadn't looked at his master, but Subaru is blushing that trademark blush that made Sebastian's stomach do flip flops. In other words, Sebastian thought his master looks cute and alluring enough to be eaten alive by someone.
"What do you think, Sebastian-san? Doesn't he look gorgeous and alluring for Seishiro-san?" Hokuto asked, and Sebastian restrain the growl that was about to emit from his lips. The demon within him, roared, Subaru is his prey and master, only his, no one else. Sebastian smiles, even though there is a twitch at the ends of his lips.
"Yes, he does. However, he looks uncomfortable. Perhaps, it would be best for me to help him dress appropriately. Excuse me." And without any hesitation, he nearly threw Hokuto and Kakyou out of his master's room, and close the doors shut. Hokuto look confused, but Kakyou kept on snickering, poor Subaru, there is going to be more competition for him. He made a bet with Kusanagi and Sorta that Sebastian would win, much to the shock of Sorta, since he thought it'll be Seishiro and skeptic for Kusanagi. Subaru looked at his demon butler, confused. His demon butler however, smiled at him, searched through the drawers and took the ones appropriately for his day out with Seishiro. After Subaru went to his bathroom, still confused, Sebastian leaned against the door of his master's bedroom and groaned. Seeing Subaru in that costume, it almost made Sebastian pounce on him. Not to mention, the sudden possessiveness and jealously of Seishiro going to be with Subaru for a whole day didn't help either.
However, Sebastian is a demon, and a demon does tend to possessive when he or she felt his or her territory get threatened of being taken away. Sebastian eyes glow dark red and he let a wicked smile creep on him, there is certainly no way in seven levels of hell he is going to let that Sakurazukamori claim his prey from him, not when he is this delicious as he is now. After all, Subaru had already made a contract with him. Being marked by an assassin, meant death, but by a demon, meant you are going to be eaten by it after it fulfills your wish or you'll stay with it for all eternity as its lover. Sebastian, at least, believe that Subaru will choose the second one, making his grin grew, it's all the matter of manipulation and persuasion. He dropped the grin and replaced that smile with a charming one when his master came back with less revealing clothes.
