Ravens are so graceful. Their glossy black feathers hardly disturb the night sky as they glide upon the cool air. Their eyes gleam like predators, sending chills down the spines of all who look into their orbs. Some of the ravens had names. This raven in particular's name was Sebastian. He had piercing red eyes that glowed with a demonic aura, an aura that was sure to give one nightmares. That is, except for one special raven who was much unlike the other ravens; he was a deep blue, one that could easily be mistaken for black. He had gentle and calm blue eyes, some that could coax you into sleep at the dead of night. Well, I should more say, an eye. His other eye was missing. None knew how the eye had gone, not even the blue raven himself. This raven's name was Ciel. He was very elegant when standing, though when flying, he was slightly noisy. Most ravens laughed at him; that is, except for Sebastian. Sebastian took a liking to Ciel. He told himself that he would look after Ciel, even at the cost of his life. No one had told him to do so; it was simply that Sebastian had wanted to. Now, Sebastian wasn't the kind of raven you would call... compassionate. He prefered to be in the dark, away from everyone, silent and unmoving. Most ravens loved to fly all the time, soaring high above the clouds and enjoying their freedom. Sebastian didn't. Sebastian wasn't like the other ravens. Not at all.
Now then. For years upon years, decades upon decades, centuries upon centuries, ravens had been enemies with the crows. Crows were a disgrace upon bird-kind. Their feathers were messy and unkempt, their flying loud and unsettling, their calls harsh and impossible to listen to. Crows were simply horrid. Most crows had names, much like the ravens. One crow's name was Claude. He had golden eyes that gleamed with predatory hunger. His talons were long and sharp. His beak was slightly curved. He scared off most crows, much like Sebastian. However, one crow refused to leave Claude alone. The crow who clinged to him so was... very unusual. Many believed he had a disorder of some sort. He was insane, to be put plainly, but his appearance was odd as well. His feathers seemed to be bleached; they were a light shade of blonde. His eyes were sky blue. This crow's name was Alois. These two crows had a relationship much similar to Sebastian and Ciel. Claude lived to help Alois- that was simple enough. It was said that Alois was taken away at a young age and was forced to work his feathers off, causing his deformities to take place. However, if you were to ask him yourself, he would be infuriated and attack you viciously. Claude would not hold him back.
Fate would have it that these two odd pairs would cross paths some day...
