Little chimes echoed the blood red hallway as he walked through…

"Adveho hic… Operor non vereor, parvulus…" A gentle yet haunting voice beckoned him to come closer…

He walked on, ignoring the cold draft gently passing over him, he held the silk sheet close to him like a cloak. He kept his gaze forward and walked on without hesitation…

"Ego sum hic... Operor non vereor mihi…" The little chimes continued to toll like a lullaby and the gentle voice beckoning him was like a spell.

"Ego vilis vos haud vulnero…"

And then blood flowed down from his eyes slowly and gently, down to his face, lips, neck and the rest. The blood did not halt its flow downward…

The chimes tolled louder; the spellbinding voice was chanting the same lullaby all over again; the blood never ceased to flow; and the hallways were blood red still.

His blood-drenched footsteps echoed throughout the hallway as he walked on the haunting ground in an endless melody…


A/n: Haunting Ground and Kuroshitsuji fans unite! This is my first go in the Horror genre. Hope it does have the feel of horror compared to the early ones I have attempted... and discarded to the recycling bin at school (guiltily looks at my notepad).

You have seen the summary, no? If you don't know what Haunting Ground is, it's a game that has an alchemy theme and something about the Azoth (shudders). Find the playthroughs in Youtube and you'll get an idea what this will be.

I'll do my best to update.
