Disclaimer: Yana Toboso created Kuroshitsuji.
First time making a BL fanfic. Though only implied, I feel I'm on the brink of Yaoi touchdown. Hate where I'm going!
Anyway, this is my companion to 'Twilight', or another version of it. Hope I didn't make them OOC enough!
"Fly, sway, go all the way"
In silence… in drowned silence his leaps abound. Majestic. Inhuman. Demonic.
A butler cloaked in black…
A smile then surfaces from his fiendish lips. Of triumph. And maniacal joy.
Because after so much toil, of so much time he spent, he'll finally be able to-
See his master once more.
"I'm in the same fate with you"
It was against a demon's aesthetics. Their contract had already ended. They were then at the realm of the dead. There was supposed to be no turning back. To devour his master's succulent soul, that was all he was to do. Nothing more.
But he…
He didn't consume his master.
Why?
The fierce longing. The desire to finally taste a flavoursome soul as his master's was too compelling. Too gripping.
It was supposed to be that way. But he-
He didn't take a bite.
And he knew the consequences would be dire.
"I feel your beat all around"
Nothing.
All I could see is nothing.
All I could feel is nothing.
I… Even I am nothing.
As is my destiny, when my contract with Sebastian has been fulfilled.
I'm not alive.
Yet…
I can feel. I can see.
This- this naked world. My naked self.
What the hell did Sebastian do this time? What is this world? This- this blank space? This white emptiness?
Why- why can I still feel?
Is this what it feels inside that damn demon's stomach?
It can't be. No, this feeling. This void.
I'm like a butterfly. A butterfly of blue… fluttering in this empty space.
Fluttering.
Pondering.
Listening.
To a beat. A beating of a heart.
"Wandering in the everlasting way"
Is it Sebastian's, I wonder?
I do so wonder… as my body, drifts on in this place of white.
I also wonder why he- he disobeyed me.
He, as a loyal butler disobeyed me.
When his teeth grazed my pallid skin, I felt no pain.
All I felt- was peace. And all I could see was his small smile. All I could hear… was his assuring whisper. Of comfort. That it will all be all right.
And I believed him.
As translucent liquid rolled down my cheeks.
"Forever
Tears fall, vanish into the night"
It was a haven of green and aubergine.
The clearing where, he laid down the trunk of leather and brown.
He kneels down, his red eyes fixed on their gaze as he unhesitatingly opens the latches.
And lo, a boy stuffed inside, of black and white is presented on the stage of lavender.
His eyes are latched shut, his mouth slightly opened. No revelation of blue.
A child. He was just a small lad, still beginning his steps onto adolescence. A frail, defenseless little youngster when devoid of his butler.
When he lost himself into the darkness.
And called this creature of the night, blaspheming God himself and his existence as His piece.
He became an outlaw. Just like him, a demon.
Did he regret it? he mused. Should he regret it? When his master had lost everything that fateful eve?
All for revenge, such a childish, humane whim. How predictable.
He was predictable. And yet at the same time, he wasn't.
Even if Sebastian was no human, he still couldn't understand what this mere mortal was thinking. His master was capricious. He always keeps this butler guessing.
And that's why, he was keen even of following him. He was just too… interesting to let go.
"If I'm a sinner"
He wonders if that's the only reason.
The small, empty shell of an Earl is lifted up, and then lowered into the stage. His act will finally begin. The king will finally make his move.
The butler's hands cleverly open a trinket-like box, embellished with the words 'New Moon Drop'. He looks on at his master. His gaze… an affectionate one.
Was he only following his master, because he was an interesting specimen to examine?
His hand then plucks from the box a ring of silver and of azure diamond.
Was it really the only reason?
The Shard of Hope slips into the little earl's thumb. It then produces a glow of sapphire.
The smile… was more gentle now.
Because he finally realized it. There was another reason why he followed his master.
"Young Master, it's time to open your eyes."
And that was…
"Chivalry, show me the way to go"
Hope you like it! And since I have no time, the next part will be uploaded really later!
