Ciel's Riddle
Disclaimer: I do Not own Kuroshitsuji ( Black Butler ) or the song, "The Riddle Solver who can't solve Riddles"
Spoiler Alert: The plot takes place after the second season of Kuroshitsuji. If you haven't watched/read that far there will be spoilers. You have been warned.
This is a songfic, and I did change a few words so it would fit the characters better.
If you squint, you may find hints of yaoi. Enjoy~ =)
Ciel lay against the desk facing Sebastian, a grin plastered to his face. He wore a suit very similar to that of his butlers. Said butler stood straight, awaiting for his master to speak. They were in the demon world now, and Ciel had yet again found himself to be a loyal guard dog. Ciel worked for the Devil himself, and his job was to oversee the actions of any rowdy demons who dared to cause problems for the lord of the dead. This time, he plays the role of a detective. This time, he was to question the actions of his own butler who was tied to him for all of eternity.
"The first mystery is why he was alone in his room. Drinking a poisoned bottle of wine?", Ciel spoke.
Sebastian said nothing, silently listening to the younger demon eyed detective speak. Ciel continued in front of his butler.
"The reason is simple, at that point in time. He was destined to die. So, who is the culprit? You know the answer to that question. Because it all happened, in front of your eyes. So, who is the culprit? Even if you don't say the answer, I will answer it for you. The way this crime will end."
Ciel picked up a photograph and marker, crossing out the face of the man who drank the poisoned wine before setting the objects back on the desk. That man had been a friend of Ciel's in some point of time. There were 7 others in the photo. Ciel and Sebastian were two of them. The detective continues his questioning, now turned away from his butler.
"The second mystery is, why did they fall into the ocean? And was the culprit really among them?", Ciel continued. His eyes glowed red as he pointed to the photograph with one hand, holding up two fingers with the other.
The butler grabs the knife hidden inside his pocket. The detective doesn't realize this and continues talking.
"The one fatal mistake in my plan, was the other detective that was dragged into this. So, who is the culprit?", Ciel says as Sebastian grabs at his arm. The detective easily hits the knife out of his butlers hand, the mans last resort.
"So, who is the culprit? Come, the name of the person in front of you. Say my name!", Ciel cries as he pulls away from Sebastian and places both hands on his chest. His eyes glowing in delight, and his open mouthed grin covering his usual stoic face.
"I really did not want you to find out. I will be merciful. Hurry, if you want to run then run away quickly.", Ciel says to Sebastian. His now grim gaze on his empty, outstretched hands. A moment later though he walks closer to his butler,.Ciel's grin had returned in a flash.
"So, who is the culprit? There may be more than one answer to that question. But the means to confirm that answer is about to disappear. So, who is the culprit? Come, if you don't hurry up my hands are going to kill you. You don't have much time. So, who is the culprit? You know the answer to that question. Because everything happened in front of your eyes.", Ciel said now standing next to Sebastian. His arms opened wide around his butler.
"So, who is the culprit? The person standing in front of you. Come, say that person's name. My name!", Ciel shouts as he slowly backs away. His hands again placed on his chest, he stares directly into Sebastian's equally red, maniacal eyes.
