Chapter One
I breathed in the cold night's air, and looked towards the sky. The empty darkness was separated by small specks of light; the stars. It amazed me how the stars were so far away, yet we could see them so clearly, even if they looked a billion times smaller. As the chilly wind hit against my skin, I gazed at the falling cherry blossoms that were falling above my head. As the wind picked up, the starry sky was replaced with ominous storm clouds.
I started to walk towards home when I heard a scream. The only thing I could do was to turn the other way and head to the scream.
The person was dying, hearing her last scream, I never expected to find a monster. A soul-sucking one at that. "Oh my, it seems I was a little to harsh on her soul." The monster licked his lips. "I also seem to attract a lost soul." The monster dropped the woman's body and walked towards me. The demon, his blood-red eyes stared right at me. Dark, intimidating, fearless. Words that describe a demon. It seems like the world froze like no one lived to have a peaceful death.
The demon stood right in front of me. I tried to force myself to move, nothing, my body wouldn't listen to me. "Any last words human?" I couldn't say anything, he was intimidating. "To scared to talk then? I will make this fast and painless, just for you." He smirked.
He leaned forward tilting his head slightly to the side. His lips touched mine, a demon's kiss felt painful, burning, sinful. Yes, I hadn't seen it coming, everything was fading, yet getting darker at the same time. I was confused, but feeling satisfaction at the same time. Then everything went black.
I ran through the streets, my eyes darting to find a place to hide. What do these people want with me? I turned my head to face them.
"We won't hurt you, we just need your 'assistance'." The man grinned.
"Leave me alone!" I shouted. I ran down an alley way. No.. this can't be! A dead-end. "It seems you have no where left to run brat." One of the men smirked. They approached me. "N-No! Leave me alone!" I cried.
My lungs ached and my heart trembled as reality began to sunk in. I woke up in what looked like a laboratory. I tried to move my arms and legs. I heard the sound of metal clang. I knew that I was chained.
After a few minutes of controlling my breathing and forcing myself to calm down as much as I could in the current position I was in, I tried to think of what to do next.
"It seems like you have woken up." I was on alert, this could be one of the men who were chasing me. My eyes was blindfolded so I couldn't see what was going on. I heard several footsteps come in. "This was be all over, Ciel Phantomhive." A maniacal laughter could be heard miles away.
My screams filled the lab. My skin burned, I felt agony. I felt a sharp metal slice my skin. I felt it, my blood pouring out. The man trailed the sharp object across my face. Once he removed the blindfold, he stabbed my eye. I let out a cry, knowing my eyesight has been permanently destroyed.
I woke and sat up, my head was aching, my body was shivering. Tears fell from my eyes, causing pain to my eye that was permanently damaged.
I couldn't remember a thing from last night. I knew that I had to find a way back home. I couldn't think straight, my mind was not functioning right. It seems that I might have been kidnapped, There seemed no other way that I suddenly would end up here.
As I heard the door open, I quickly hid myself under the sheets. The person walked over to me slowly. "I know you are awake." I flinched. I lifted the covers and looked at him. The monster from last night...
He leaned in closer, No... Not again.
-Last Night-
He leaned forward tilting his head slightly to the side. His lips touched mine, a demon's kiss felt painful, burning, sinful. Yes, I hadn't seen it coming, everything was fading, yet getting darker at the same time. I was confused, but feeling satisfaction at the same time.
Remembering last night, I blushed. "Are you remembering what happened last night? It seems you liked the kiss human." He smirked. I didn't say anything, I just looked away. " I couldn't trust anyone anymore. Not after what happened to me that day.
The silence in the room was killing me. "Why didn't you kill me?" I muttered. "Not so silent anymore I see. I don't think I would be able to kill a young lady such as yourself." He grinned. "W-wait.. What!? I am not a lady!" I shouted. "Oh? But you seem like one, your slender legs, your beautiful eyes...-"
"Shut up! I'm not a lady!" I pouted. "Do you know who your shouted at 'child'?" The demon's eyes started glowing red. "If I say you're a lady, you're a lady, got it?" He smirked. "..." I have to admit that I was scared. I just didn't like too be called a lady.
"Oh Rachel! What an adorable daughter you have!" I glared at her. "Oh, I'm sorry to disappoint you, but he is my son." My mother's friends always mistake me for a girl just because of how I look. "Oh! I apologize! I didn't realize.. It's just that he is so adorable! Just like a girl." I flinched. "Excuse me, but I am not a girl." I felt anger boiling in me. "Ok then! I'll see you a little later than Rachel!" She ignored me. "Have a nice day." My mother answer. "Mother?" I asked "Why do people always call me a girl?"
"Well, you always act polite, also you seem very adorable and beautiful to other people's eyes." She smiled. "Is that a good thing?" I titled my head. "It could be good or bad depending on what you think about it." She said. "Oh... I see."
"So it seems you agree with me that you are a lady then?" The demon smiled. I didn't say anything. "Since you didn't answer, I'll take that as a yes." He nodded his head.
"Also, since you are still a mere child, you will have to attend school." He said. "Also, I need to know your name." I stared at him. "I don't give my name out to strangers." I said.
"Oh? But you will. If you want to do this with me." He leaned in and licked my cheek. "...fine.." I muttered while blushing. "Good." He smiled.
"It is Ciel Phantomhive." I said. "Hmm.. I think we may need to alter that a little." He thought. "Ciela Phantomhive?" I asked. "Why a girl's name?" I Crossed my arms. "Remember, you agreed that you were a lady so you needed a girl's name." He flashed a smile. This was out of the question.
"We are going to buy you some new clothes tomorrow, Ciela." He smirked and walked out the door. What did I get myself into?
Gomenasai Ciel. I think your adorable!
So what do you think Ciel's new clothes should be? I have something in mind, but I wanted to know if you could give me some suggestions? Kekekeke... I'm so evil.
