It was dark in that world, the world of demons. It was quiet. There was never anyone to speak to, considering most were in their other forms.

Whenever they were seen they were stared at and attacked. The other demons wouldn't stop challenging the new, young demon that had power over another. Luckily he did have his butler, otherwise he probably would have already been dead.

With a sigh, he finally opened his eyes. "Sebastian, I am bored. Make something interesting happen," he spoke, sending an irritated glance to the standing demon.

"What would you have me do, Young Master?"

Always with the young master bit. It was starting to irritate him more than ever. "You can stop with the whole young master thing. I'm not that young anymore, I've been this way for several years now."

"You will always be young to me, My Lord. But, if it displeases you, I will stop." It didn't take much to hear the underlying "for now" that was clearly there, along with Sebastian's mocking smirk.

"I am tired of this Sebastian. Of this place. Is it too much trouble to return to the human world. I would like to see how things have. . . changed."

They had a stare down for a moment, red glaring into blue. WIth a sigh, Sebastian raised a hand to his head.

"It isn't trouble at all, my lord, to return for a visit. Are you sure you would like to. Everyone and everything you knew from that life has been dead for many years now.:

"I don't wish to remember anything from my past, Sebastian. Do you want me to order you," he asked with a smirk. It was entertaining to watch his butler twitch a moment before becoming calm once more. Clearly he irritates his butler.

"No, My Lord." Sebastian easily picked up the smaller demon and began to carry him from the area. "To the human world we go."


It took a few hours, but the two demons finally made to the human world. They walked together down a lonely dirt road, surrounded by trees.

Well, not completely lonely. Two girls were ahead of them.

Ciel stared at them. One with light hair, and the other with dark. The dark haired one was the size of a child, while the other loomed over her with a protective stance. It was a very familiar scene, and it was clear that the blond one was a demon.

But to Ciel that didn't matter. Not being around humans for so long caused his hunger for souls to flare the moment he saw the girl. His eyes narrowed and turned red as a short growl escaped from him.

The four stopped. Ciel saw Sebastian looked between him and the girls with an almost irritated expression. The blond girl slowly turned and pushed the smaller behind her. She looked at the two demons, and prepared to attack them both.

"What the hell do you want," She asked, her silver eyes glaring daggers.

"Simple, really. My Lord wants that girl's soul." Sebastian stated, motioning first to Ciel then to the girl.

The demon girl stood straight, looking at Ciel. "A deal between demons? Isn't that interesting. So is the fact that you think you'll get her soul. A funny thought at least. The only one who will ever have her soul, is the reaper that takes it."

"Why waste a perfectly good meal on a reaper," Ciel asked, stepping closer to the girl.

She stepped closer as well, her eyes flashing red, "Back off, little demon. You're not old enough to fight someone like me yet."

"It wasn't my choice to be a demon in the first place! Now give me that girl!" Ciel turned to Sebastian, preparing to give the older demon an order.

"Meagan. . . Don't let them get me. . ." A small voice reached out, before Ciel could give his order.

"Of course not, my lady." The demon, Meagan, spoke. She looked to Ciel with a different expression when he turned back towards her. "You don't want to be a demon?"

Ciel quickly went from startled to furious, "Of course I don't want to be a demon! I was forced into this!"

"By your demon?"

". . . No. By someone else's. He wished for Sebastian to never have my soul."

Meagan suddenly smirked, looking positively evil as she stared into Ciel's eyes. "I think I know how to fix that. If what you're worried about is the fact that Sebby there can't have your soul, I know just the way. I'll show it to you, only if you leave Ari alone."

Sebastian and Ciel both stared at her in wonder. Even her human was looking surprised at the demon.


It was a couple hours later, with Ciel's hunger sated, that the group of four sat and glared at each other. The girl, Arianna apparently, looked confused as the three demons had a stare down.

"What is your idea of fixing the situation?" Sebastian asked.

"The Cursed Child. And seeing how old you are, you surely have heard of her before?" Meagan responded, with a evil grin.

"The fairytale, you mean? The supposed creature that can exchange souls. You don't truly think it exists, do you? Don't waste our time." Sebastian responded, narrowing his eyes.

"Oh, she exists. She isn't just a story. At least, I'm pretty sure she does, because then I would be concerned. Who would my darling twin be visiting if the Cursed Child doesn't exist?"

"It's just a myth, girl." Sebastian waved her off, and stood, preparing to leave.

"My name isn't girl!"

The small girl that had stayed silent finally spoke up, "She is real. I've met her. She doesn't like it when people say that she isn't real. Mattie and Will say that people have to keep thinking she isn't real though." Her dark eyes stared at Sebastian, looking much older than her years.

Sebastian blinked in surprise at the small girl. The girl smirked, "I think it would be at this time, Cathelina would say, 'Go to hell demon.'" Then she smiled, giggled, and hugged Meagan around the demon girl's throat.

"Very well said, My lady." Meagan smirked once more, and patted Arianna's head.

"You are a group of lunatics," Ciel stated, sneering at them all.

"Shut the hell up, brat. No one asked you." Meagan growled, with a sneer of her own.

"Don't fight, Meagan. It's bad, and it kills people!" Arianna scolded her demon, pouting slightly.

Meagan frowned, "As you wish."
