Dinner With Clow Reed and Seishirou 4 (Final Chapter)
The last chapter left us with a face-off between a moon guardian's
counterpart and a sadistic /Kamui/, a confused moon guardian/slave named Uke,
a maple tree bonzai secretary of the En Ma Cho division, a bunch of shinigami
walking the streets of Tokyo with a dead but powerful magician, a sun guardian
high on pixie sticks and an ex-vet who harbors the power to feed a large
bloodthirsty tree, and the new Sakurazukamori's off-key, off-lyric rendition
of *shudder* boy band songs.
This chapter...
It gets worse.
*****
Uke watched the two men argue over him. He watched them scream. He
watched them shove. He watched as one of them changed form (other people
didn't notice. a gorgeous naked man belting his heart out onstage is enough
distraction) and lodge a strange-looking arrow into the other man's shoulder.
He seriously began to wonder if he should already leave and look for his
original masters.
A small ki blast barely missed him.
He felt a hand on his arm.
"C'mon, kid," the man he knew as Touya sighed. "We better find your
real parents."
Three of the walls exploded as Subaru screamed the chorus of "I Do
(Cherish You)".
The tiny moon guardian found himself clutching the arm attached to him.
He suddenly found himself incredibly frightened.
*****
The keening sound of the onmyouji's singing echoed through the night,
scaring cats, rats, rabid dogs, muggers, beggars, late-night tourists, an owl,
a newly-created sun guardian and a group of shinigami.
Only one man can appreciate such a sound.
"Maaaa! Subaru-kun really has a kawaii voice!"
The shinigami medic nervously stroked the downy feathers of his beloved
pet, wondering if he should suggest that the former Sakurazukamori should invest
on ear check-ups.
He decided against it.
He looked down at the sun guardian who was still latched tightly to his
waist. "Anou...Potchi-chan," he said. "Where to next?"
"Where the scary sound is coming from," the star-clad guardian
whimpered. "Don't make me go there, onegai!"
The great Clow Reed cut in. "I'll give you candy if you lead us there."
"Yatta!" 'she' exclaimed and found herself a new person to glomp on.
Somewhere behind them, Watari could hear Tsuzuki's exclamations of
"Candy!" and other voices that suggest a number of people attempting to calm
down a high-strung bonsai plant.
God, he wished this would all end soon.
*****
"Ours," the stoic moon guardian said calmly. "We found him first. So
he's ours."
/Kamui/ smirked. "Not for long."
They exchanged another round of blasts while the people around them
started to fall into almost certain comatose, either from blows obtained from
the fight around them, the heaven Sumeragi Subaru's nudity presents to them,
or just Subaru's horrid singing.
By then Nataku had gotten bored and had wandered back to the Angels'
table. "I want to go home," it said miserably. Yuuto patted its head. "But
daddy's still enjoying himself," he pointed out. "Besides, didn't you want a
brother?"
"But I'm sleepy!"
Satsuki merely snorted. "Look, let's just take it home and leave the
almighty leader to his fun. You coming, Sumeragi?"
Seeing that she was ignored and he kept on singing, she raised an
eyebrow at the rest of her so-called comrades. "Well?"
They murmured vaguely and stood up.
On their way out, they discovered the object of the skirmish and a waiter
rooted to their spot in fear of getting hit.
"Great place," Kusanagi said uncomfortably as he stuck a generous tip in
the waiter's tie.
For all the trouble they got the place into, the money was well-deserved.
*****
Fifteen minutes later, the group reached their destination.
The fight was halted as a shrill screech of "brother-chan!" tore through
the air.
Potchi latched onto 'her' counterpart. "Uke! The masters have been
looking for you."
There was a hint of confusion before Seishirou's smooth voice permeated
their senses. "Uke-chan, you know better than to make us worry."
Before the young moon guardian could say "Master!" Subaru had already
glomped on the tall man. "Seishirou-san! You came back! Now fuck me!"
The man's golden eyes took on an amused glint before saying to Clow and
Shinigami, "You guys go on home. I'll take care of this."
Clow smiled and apologized to the people concerned.
"Let's...just go home," Hisoka sighed in exasperation.
*****
After the somewhat anti-climactic conclusion to their adventures, the
characters went on with their lives:
Potchi and Uke were eventually allowed to go free. They now run a kink place
specializing on sweet edibles.
Tatsumi spent the rest of the month as a plant. It took him another three to
re-learn human speech. Until then, Terazuma remained his translator.
Watari Yutaka refrained from writing any more fiction that may possibly offend
the Sakurazukamori.
The rest of the En Ma Cho slacked off, because Tatsumi was out of comission.
The had to work double time when he got back.
Yukito and Touya eventually adopted a "normal" kid. His name is Ascot. He
said he's an alien.
Fuuma bullied Kamui again, since he got bored. He got Nataku a Fuuma
plushie.
Seishirou and Subaru got into a weird inter-planar relationship. they broke
up when Subaru accused Seishirou of cheating on him with Clow Reed.
Clow Reed baked apple pies.
Owari
Gomen for those of you who wanted action. I'm not very good at them, hentai
or otherwise.
