hello and welcome to my very first Kuroshitsuji one shot! as promised, Kitsune writ and uploaded the Black Butler fanfic i introduced in my profile story update list. as you can tell its a poem[as most of my themed stories go first] but we'll later see actual stories in this category as it develops. this takes place in the manga series book one chapter three[so i think] after Ciel and Lizzie dance. Ciel is in his bedroom when this poem/story begins just before Sebastian walks in. yes a small alteration from the original plot but it still has its original concept, i swear! hope you guys enjoy!
note: there is some mention of hate and renouncement of God and talk about depending on the Devil so unless you're fine with such talk and are not very relgious or keen to it, this one shot is probably not for you.
disclaimer! i do not own Kuroshitsuji[Black Butler]
Story of my Life
Mother and father…two people whom I love more than anything in the world. Those I had cherished, when with them I was safe and had the freedom to be the happy, joyful child like I should. Then a terrible fire reigned. The two people that I loved dear perished in the hellish flames. I wasn't as lucky. I was taken by the people who brought this upon me…and was there's to use as they pleased. They abused and used me and ultimately in the end I was killed. A sacrifice for an attempt at power and eternal glory.
"Well, what is this? A child? Hmm…but you're too young to be in a place like this, aren't you?"
A noxious beast, one of the most feared and terrifying creatures, was my savior. I was brought back from the dead along with a simple contract. In exchange to come back to humiliate and torment those who hurt and humiliated me in the past, I offered my soul to the Devil. A sacrifice, a wish, and a contract bind me to the monster that is to be my faithful dog until the day I die..then my soul would be his to do as he pleased. After all, he is a devil of a butler. He listens and never lies. No matter what danger I am in, I know he will always be there to save me…unlike the times when I wished and prayed someone would find and save me from my tormentors. But none ever did. I lost my faith in God that day and came to depend upon the Devil. But now I fear I would lose faith in both and perish into nothingness. And maybe…never be reunited with the two I love dear who are now in Paradise ever again…
"Ah young master! Still awake at this hour?"
Speak of the devil, here he comes now. The dark clad man came to my side pulling the blanket up to my chin and tucking me in.
"Oh dear, the moon is this high. Please sleep else your health retreats young master."
As the man turns to leave I see only the Devil's back retreating. I've seen so many backs turned towards me and leaving me forever. Will this man leave me too? The Angelic Devil, the Raven with the wings of a Dove? Shall I lose him just as I had lost my family and my old life?
"Sebastian…stay here…until I fall asleep," I begged, not wanting to be alone anymore. The Devil smiled his knowing smile as he came to my bedside. "I shall be with young master…until the very end!"
This is the story of my life…for now. What will become of me…I fear to know. Mother and father in heaven…shall I never see your smiling faces again? I fear I'm far too deep…in the devil's own.
hope you guys enjoyed yourselves. i had fun writing it.
finals this week so i may or may not hang around for long[depends on schedule]. if i do i might get started on the other Kuroshitsuji project i have planned. if i succeed try looking for a story titled Ciel. its based on a North European folklore that's been adopted and translated into several different languages.
