Hey! Scratch here! :3 I'm making this new story because I was lying in bed listening to youtube right? well, I decided to put on a really creepy song called The Slightly Chipped Full Moon; which is basicly Aloi's character song. Its sad and lonely sounding, and as I listened to that, I looked up and saw the yellowish full moon trying to shine through some thin clouds covering it, and if that wasn't enough, there were frail, skinny branches from the tree outside surrounding it...and everything else was completely dark except for that lonely...shining...moon... and the whole thing was so creepy I just kept staring at the moon... and it motivated me so so much that I decided to see if I can write something serious that doesn't involve Sebastian and Ciel just having pointless sex XD but ya, here we go, let's see if I can be serious... by the way, I'm not continuing this, its just a one-chapter thing.

... The Lonely Sliver Moon

Ciel lay in bed, staring at the cieling, thinking.

It had been a few years scince he had awoken as a demon, and now instead of feeling hate, or sorrow, or pain;

He felt nothing.

Nothing mattered anymore. Nothing. He didn't need to sleep. He didn't need to eat. Or breathe. Or care.

Ciel did not have to do anything.

Yet that pained him so much.

Before he had awakened like this, he had a purpose;

Get. Revenge.

But now his world was empty...

Everything eluded his grasp.

Nothing had meaning anymore.

Nothing mattred.

If he wanted, Ciel could go to the highest mountain and simply watch the world from there.

For him, time was of no concern.

He had all the time in the world.

...but he had nothing to do with it.

Every day was getting more and more tedious...

Each day exactly like the last.

Ciel had no purpose in this world anymore.

Everything felt like an instant to him.

Everything slipping away...

All he had now was Sebastian.

But even him had become cold and hateful towards Ciel. Serving him for eternity... each day longer than the last... yet somehow going faster. But it didn't matter how fast they went.

Because eternity never ends...

Forever trapped in darkness...

Forever without purpose...

Forever without meaning...

It was his life now.

But he didn't want to accept the cruel truth.

So he would try and sleep the night off, like he always did when he was a human...

that was, WHEN he was a human.

that is, WHEN he could sleep.

Dawn...

Ciel opened his eyes to a grim-faced Sebastian bringing out his morning tea.

Without saying a word, he served the tea and dressed Ciel.

Ciel sipped the dark and swirling flavors of New Moon Drop...

That is, if he could taste.

Silent, Ciel strode out of the room, Sebastian emotionlessly following behind.

Ciel went out into the garden.

The roses were all black.

Black... that was his color... wasn't it...

Ciel hated Black.

He walked out of the garden with Sebastian following behind.

Sebastian; who wouldn't say a word.

Who didn't have a purpose.

Who hated Ciel.

Ciel kept walking down the empty streets. There might have been people there... but to him it was empty.

And silent.

And cold.

Ciel still kept walking until he reached an icy forest.

and walked in.

It didn't matter where he went now.

Or what he did.

He could never die.

As much as he wanted to.

Finding an open space, Ciel knelt down in the moonbeams.

Yes, moonbeams.

He had been walking all day.

Or was it all week..? Or month..? or year..?

Time wasn't important anymore.

a raven-black cat passed by the two figures.

Sebastian didn't even glance at it.

It was just a reminder of something he could never have...

Just like that small boy in the silver moonlight.
