It had been nearly 3 years since Ciel had come face to face with his demon butler. The purple contract seal in his eye was now replaced with a dark sea of crystal blue no longer accompanied by a deep beautiful crimson. When he is now faced with Sebastian once again what reason could he have? Had he come to re-establish the contract with the young man? Was he nothing more than just hungry? Or...had he come to apologize..."again". No, that would be preposterous. Even if he had come to renew the contract, there was no need for Ciel to have a demon. For the past 3 years he had grown far much more than he ever thought he could. Soon, he was even to marry Elizabeth. All he had gone through in his past contributed to who he was today. Ciel went on living without Sebastian at his side.
3 years earlier (Ciel's P.O.V)
I am blinded by the stream of my own blood flowing rather violently into my eyes. Excruciating pain runs down my back as I move my hand to my forehead only to find a large slash right across the middle. Where am I? What's happened to me? Have I finally lost? Sebastian... Through the blur of red blocking my vision I catch random glimpses of the scene in front of me. An unconscious Alois Trancy lay on the concrete ground covered in what I suspect to be his own blood. Claude is kneeled down by him. With his glasses covering his eyes I am unable to read his expression. Heh, you never really can to be honest. Then I see it...a creature no more than 10 feet away from them both. I must be hallucinating. Those...eyes. I know those eyes. I'd know them anywhere. Sebastian. It's Sebastian. Demon form and all. Black wings, sharp claws in place of his hands, and a face that could kill you out of pure terror. A shock of fear of my own lingers through me as I shiver. D-did...did he...? He looks in my direction and starts walking over to me very slowly. More hot blood runs down into my eyes making it even harder to clearly see what's happening. When he is only a few feet away from me all I see is red. I feel a warm glove on my face gently wiping the blood out of my eyes then my forehead with a very familiar white silk handkerchief. When I can see again I am able to see that Sebastian has returned back to his usual form. Black suit, tie, and a calm and collected appearance. This is the Sebastian that I have come to know a little too well. Even so I am still shaking from the sight of his true demon self. Once most of the blood is gone, he ever so gently lays his hand on the side of my face. His thumb brushes across my cheek. His face doesn't look violent nor sad...no, it looks...pitiful. I hate it. The only words I can remember him muttering are "I'm sorry." My eye widen before my vision once again blurs and everything goes black.
…
When I awake I am back in my huge bed in my mansion. I feel slightly nauseous and more than anything confused. The warm light from the sun coming through my window does little to comfort me but adds a sense of serenity to the atmosphere. I reach up to my forehead to check the cut to find it had been stitched up, cleaned, and wrapped in medical gauze. Must have been Sebastian's doing. I glance over at the black eye patch that still lies on my bedside table. Unlike myself, it is still soiled in the dry remnants of red liquid. A stinging pain shoots through my head as it is obvious I'm not fully recovered just yet. Even so, I am in desperate need for some answers. Unfortunately there's no time to rest. Where is Sebastian and what the hell happened? I cup my face in my hands, trying to deal with the pain. It becomes too much to handle so I get up to go get some medication of some sort. Anything to make this headache go away. I slowly creep down the long hallway to the bathroom. It's very quiet. Almost too quiet for comfort. Where had Lizzy run off to? Where is Bard, and Finnian and Mey-rin? I'll go on a search hunt for them later. Once I enter the bathroom I find myself staring at my disastrous appearance for many moments in the mirror before examining the ugly wound. It's turned an ugly purple and has started to bleed once more. I don't care, let it bleed. Heck, better yet let me die. On top of all of that the tips of my dark blue locks have been singed to a crispy black and sticks out in a very unflattering fashion. Despite it normally being stick straight, brushing it has no effect. I quickly give up and stare for a few more seconds when something even more sickening catches my eyes. It's my eyes themselves. My eyes. The two identical blue orbs glisten in the light reflected off the mirror. Two. Both of them are suspiciously...normal. The contract seal is nowhere to be found. B-but the contract...Sebastian...what the hell has he done?! I stand there dumbfounded before punching the mirror with so much force it shatters into a million pieces. I lower my now bloody, glass filled hand and stare at the floor. This headache isn't going anywhere.
