Chapter 1: The Past

LEVI'S P.O.V.

To begin with, my name is Levi.

You may know me as the Captain of the Special Operations Squad.

Humanity's greatest soldiers.

And the Commander's right hand.

All these names belong to me, but there is one missing...

One that to this day, is the only one that has mattered more than anything...

The Titans can be damned for all I care, there's one name I want to be called by...

My real name...

Levi Xavier Phantomhive...

THE REST OF THIS CHAPTER HAPPENS IN THE PAST!

"~Oh Big Brother!"

I turned around to see my younger brother running up to me with a small puppy at his side.

I smiled and asked, "Well who's this little scamp that following you around?"

"That's my new puppy, Sebastian, what do think Levi?"

I petted my brothers blue black hair and said, "He's wonderful Ciel. Which reminds me..."

I held out a small box and said, "Happy 3rd birthday little brother."

Ciel blue eyes lighten with excitement as he opened the small box.

Inside was silver pendant with the family seal engraved into it. He smiled and said, "It's just like yours!"

I nodded showing the silver bit on my ascot.

He pinned his on the bowtie and said, "Now we match Levi."

I nodded with a gracious smile.

That Ciel for you, so sweet and kind for a 9 year old's little brother.

He had a lot of our mother's traits, including her blue eyes while like me we inherited our blackish hair color from our father.

Aunt An says I look a lot like Father and I am bound to be just as successful.

"Young Masters you parents wish for you to come inside."

I turned to the elderly Asian butler and said, "Yes Tanka, we'll be right in."

I took Ciel hand and said, "You ready birthday boy?"

He nodded and we began walking into the house.

As we walked Ciel began to sing, "~London Bridge is falling down, falling down, falling down! London Bridge is falling down, my fair lady.~"

The old tune brought a warmth to my soul as we walked down the hallway.

We would play that game with Mother, Aunt An, Elizabeth Middleford, and my fiancée, Penelope Redmond.

Just like all nobles, I have my fiancée chosen for me.

Lady Penelope is of nobility, after all.

She is the daughter of a marquess.

Nobles marry other nobles, that is how it works.

It doesn't matter if, I think of her as a sister or not...

She is to be my wife, when I come of age.

We walked into the main foyer to see Mother and Father with boxes wrapped up and smiles on their faces.

Ciel smiles and said, "Mama! Papa! Are these all for me?"

Mother nodded and said, "Yes they are, but we also have a present for your brother as well."

I looked at them and said, "What do mean Mother?"

Father held up a letter and said, "A letter addressed to young Levi Phantomhive, heir to the Phantomhive Estates and eventual Earldom, from the fencing master Sir Jameson Votare. It appears he have accepted you for private lessons while he stays in London for the next year or so."

I couldn't believe it...

The Master Votare is going to teach me about fencing!

I've waited so long for this!

Ever since I was little, my skill with the sword went unrivaled.

I even dueled Lady Milford with two swords and won...

She was the first to recommend me to Votare and now I get to train with him my self!

I smiled and said, "Really?! When's my..."

Mother smiled and said, "There's a carriage waiting outside to take you there."

I smiled in excitement when I made a realization...

I'd miss Ciel opening up his new toys and gifts...

I'd miss my little brother's birthday party...

Ciel step over to me and said, "I can wait to open them until you get back Levi."

I smiled and said, "You don't need to..."

Ciel held his pin and said with a stern voice, (Well as stern as a 3 year olds voice could get)

"I promise on the Phantomhive Crest pin that I, Ciel Phantomhive, will not open a single birthday gift until you get back home. This I swear."

Father laughed and said, "Well there's no turning back on a promise like that."

I hugged my brother and said, "You goofball... I love you."

He replied, "I love you too Big Brother, now go have fun!"

I walked out to the carriage and got in waving to my family as I left for London.

As I rode down the road seeming from no where a woman voice began to hum out, London Bridges...

I looked around but didn't see a woman walking...

Maybe it's the driver...

No, my driver is a man, we don't have a female driver...

What's going on?

I peered my head out of the carriage to see my driver was no longer there, but a woman sat in his place.

The woman had snow pale skin with long pale red hair that fluttered down her back almost feather like.

She wore a long sleeved dress with a mixture of black and red colors into a more sophisticated gown, along with that she wore a matching red hat with black roses.

She looked back at me with golden eyes and said, "Took you long enough to figure out the driver was gone, I was beginning to wonder if you'd ever notice."

I glared at her and asked, "Who the bloody blazes are you and why are you driving my coach?!"

She smiled revealing her jagged teeth and said, "Oh yeah... I forgot to tell you that... Sorry!"

She laughed and said, "My name is Lilith Sutcliff and I am a Shinigami!"

I looked at her and said, "A what?"

She looked up and said, "What the English word for it? Death God... Um... Harvester of Souls... A Grim Reaper... Yes that it! I'm a Grim Reaper!"

I sat back and asked sarcastically, "So where's your death scythe?"

She smiled once again and stopped the couch.

She holds up what looks like a saw with moving blades and it buzzed loud and strong!

She laughed and said, "This is my family tool of harvesting souls, people sometimes call it a chainsaw... I call it fun as Hell!"

I gulped and asked, "What do you want from me Ms. Sutcliff?"

She smiled and said, "I want to go on an adventure to another dimension and you're just too perfect for my traveling companion!"

I yelled, "But I don't want to..."

She held up her scythe and said, "Well..."

I gulped and asked, "Wh-Where to?"

She smiled and said, "Were going to a dimension called Shingeki no Kyojin! The realm of Titans!"

I raised my eyebrow and said, "What is that place?!"

She grabbed my wrist and said, "No time to explain! Let's just go!"

She slices the air with her scythe and a portal opened pulling us in.

Then my word went black.

LILITH'S P.O.V.

"Oh boy, I really did this time!" I said as Levi slowly woke up.

I looked at him and said, "Um hey Levi... Please don't be mad..."

He looked at me and asked, "What happened?"

I tapped my fingers together and said, "Well we made it to the other dimension but... I lost my scythe on the way in..."

He sat up and said, "So? Can't you just call it back? I mean your a Death God."

I replied, "Um, well... here's the thing... I'm a Shingami in training... If I lose my death scythe without knowing... I can't call it..."

He glared at me and yelled, "So we're stuck here?!"

I nodded nervously backing away.

He yelled, "I can't believe this! My parents are going to be so worried and Ciel... Oh Ciel... What going to happen to me?!"

I tried to comfort him and he yelled, "No! You need to leave Lilith! This is all your fault! I may never see my family again because of you and your fucking ignorance!"

I... Yes...

It was my fault...

I want to go here and now...

Now we're both trapped...

Grell going to be so worried when I don't check in...

My big sister, is going to hate me for even doing this...

I looked at him and said sadly, "I'm sorry Levi... I'll leave you be..."

I walked near the open window and said, "The next time we meet, I may not be well me... I'll only show you my real face again when I find it..."

He looked at me and I said, "Goodbye Levi..."

I jumped down into the street of Wall Sheena.

I couldn't blend in on the streets the way I looked.

I quickly changed my hair brown and tied it up in a ponytail and turned my eye a shade of hazel

. I made my self look like a 12 year old girl.

Levi won't see Lilith Sutcliff for a long time...

But he might meet the new me along the way...

But I'm going to need a name...

How about...

(I know I'm terrible, but it will make you try guess who she is and win some cookies!)

CEIL'S P.O.V.

"Mama... Why are you crying?" I asked as I walked into the room.

Papa was holding Mama in his arms while he cried too.

I looked at them and asked, "What's wrong?"

Papa looked at me and said, "Ciel... You remember how Levi went away to a class today...?"

I nodded and said proudly, "Yep, I haven't touched a present yet."

I intended on keeping my promise. Levi will be so proud of me when I get home!

Papa then said, "Well Levi... He never went to the lesson... He never made it there..."

Mama cried out, "Someone took him! Someone took one of my babies!"

My eyes widen in horror...

No, not Levi...

Levi can't be missing...

Maybe he hiding like in that game we play.

I ran around the house looking in every nook and cranny for my brother and said, "Levi? Stop hiding, Mama and Papa are crying... It not nice to make them cry."

I ran back to the room to where Mama and Papa was and said, "Levi's not hiding in house Papa, maybe he in the garden or..."

Papa hugged me and said, "No sweetie he's not... Someone took him away Ciel... A bad person..."

I looked at him and said, "I don't understand Papa... Why did they take Levi away?"

He looked at me and said, "Because they are bad people, who hurt good people... That's why... That's why you must stay near the house okay? You don't go anywhere without me, Mama, or Tanka, okay?"

I nodded and said, "Okay Papa... I will..."

Where's my brother?

Where's Levi?

7 YEARS LATER

"God rest his soul, and may the young Lord Levi Xavier Phantomhive find peace beyond the gates of heaven..." The preacher man said as we placed an empty box in the ground.

My brother been missing for 7 years now...

My mother finally caved in and began plans for a funeral...

The ceremony it's self was short, simple, and pointless.

I refuse to believe Levi is dead...

I know he's alive, I can feel it in my bones, but not everyone shares my option.

No, I know he's alive out there, and I will find him...

I promise to do so, by any way necessary!

Father looked at me and said, "Ciel, I know this is hard to accept for you but..."

"It's alright Father... But if you don't mind... I'll keep the boxes wrapped..."

I touched my pendant and said, "I made a promise... and I will keep it, until the end."

He nodded and said, "Well then, I'll keep them in storage at our town house."

Mother looked at me and said, "We're going ahead to the manor Ciel... Come along.

" I solemnly nodded and said, "Yes Mother..."

He's not dead...

He's not, but still...

Today was a day of mourning...

ONE YEAR LATER

"Think carefully. Should you reject the faith even this once, the gates of paradise will forever be out of your reach." The demon said as I floated in the realm between life and death.

I replied, "Do you think one who was among those faithful would ever go so far as to summon someone like you?"

I've lost too much...

My home...

My family...

I'm not going to lose my life or my revenge!

The demon then said, "I'll ask but once more. Do you wish to form a contract with me?"

I yelled, "I do! Now, stop asking these tedious questions and let me know if we have a deal!"

It then said, "Very well, tell me what it is that you desire?"

I replied, "To seek justice of my parent's murder, to do harm to those who have harmed me..."

I paused for a moment and said, "To find my long lost brother and bring him home..."

The demon laughed and said, "Very well Young Master... It is a deal!"

The demon changed forms and placed it's hand over my right eye.

"I'm sorry Master... This will hurt."

I screamed in agony as the pain shot through my eye in burning pain, like a branding iron in my eye socket...

But it was worth it...

I will have my vengeance...

I will have my brother back...

My soul is nothing in comparison to that...

Once those things are with me, then he can have my soul.

I felt my sight grow dim as I thought back to my brother...

Levi...

I will find you...

I promise...
