I don't own Black Butler, but the demon (whose name I refuse to release until the time comes) and the one being contracted with (don't know what else to call him/her…the gender will be concealed until next chapter ;P …or the end of this chapter, whichever works…) are mine, as well as any other OCs I may use.
Death. A topic not normally brought up in every day conversation. Even so, no matter how much of a death wish one may have, they still fear it. It certainly would be something to fear. Ever-lasting pain or supposed eternal slumber, two of the things that come with the dreaded five-letter word.
However, these things shan't come to some—those few who have been linked to a demon via contract.
Somewhere, near the gates of Hell, a jet-black lynx sat in a formal manor, head cocked to the side just so, tail wrapped elegantly over its front paws. Just-slanted lavender colored eyes glinted mischievously with a mix of interest, covetousness, and slight mockery.
"I shall ask but once more. Now, keep in mind that once this contract is intact, you will not be capable of leaving the confines of my watchful eye. Your soul will belong to me, and me alone. Now…do you wish to form a contract with me, in return for my devouring your soul once your wish has been fulfilled?"
The one being given the near interrogation answered, through a grimace of pain, smirking ever-so. "I do hope that I must repeat myself, demon." Despite her cocky exterior, she was more frightened than ever.
A small chuckle emanated from the lynx. "Surely you wish not to reject the faith. If you do so, even this once, the utopia of which holds no bounds over one such as myself shall be forever out of your reach."
"Must I tell you once more? I know no faith. It is all merely myths and fairy tales told to young children to make them behave." Pain emanated throughout the small body. "Now, do as I say and finalize the contract!"
Another small chuckle from the demon. "As you wish…" he paused, letting yet another chuckle escape his mouth, "my young mistress."
S~o? *Grins like Undertaker-Kun* What do you think? Do you like it so far? My apologies if it was confusing in any way…it shall all be answered in time, so please continue reading!
At first, I had no idea what to make my demon, but…I think I like what I chose for him.
Huh, weird…I usually don't put dialogue in my prologues, but I don't see how it could have been avoided this time.
So that being said…review, please! I wish to know what you are all thinking! What can I improve on, what sort of things do you like about it? Constructive criticism is really great, and reviews are like crack to me!
Also…I'm going to try not to make half of the story author's notes…
Oh, and a note: I think I'm going to have the past of the character (not the demon) in the next couple chapters.
