I do not own any of the characters from Black Butler, I simply own my oc. This is also the only chapter that will be in third person. The rest of them will be in first. I also apologize in advance for how short this chapter is, the rest for future reference will be much longer and have more emotion in them.
Death Of My Soul
The young girl awoke to screams and the scent of smoke. She quickly sat upright and threw her legs over the bed and put on a pair of shoes. She bolted out of her room as fast as she could and ran to the giant staircase of her family's mansion. The sight that greeted her will forever haunt her. Chained to two wooden chairs, with their backs facing each other, were her mother and father. She could smell burning flesh.
The girl couldn't believe her eyes and became nauseous because of the scent. Had the curse that plagued her family in the past caught up with her generation just like it had punished her grandparents and the rest of her line before them.
"Well now look what we have here, another family member of the famous Grey family. I've already killed both of your parents. Should I spare you and let you live with the hatred and sorrow of being the last of your line, or should I kill you along with your mother and father, Miss Adrian Grey." The young girl seeked desperately for where the voice was coming from but the smoke was becoming thicker and the world hazier. She tried to fill her lung with precious air but failed. Her body felt heavy and her world was getting hazier every second that passed. She realized that she had inhaled too much of the toxic smoke and even if she gets out of the house she was still going to die that is if her parents killer doesn't get to her first. Right before her eyes closed and her body hit the floor she saw her parents killer. A white winged beast portrayed as an angel.
"What do you seek most, fame, fortune, or revenge. Whatever it is I can help you obtain it, but only if you choose to create a contract with me. A contract in which I eventually gain the right to eat your soul." The girl opened up her aqua blue eyes to black feathers falling all around her and floating in the air with only a blanket draped over her naked body. The girl searched around the room and realized that there was only a crow perching on a stick in the room with her.
"I want revenge and will do anything it takes to bring my parents killer to justice. Even if it is to call on an unholy creature such as yourself and lose the ability to go to heaven." The young girl shouts. The girl had heard of demons with the ability to portray certain animals. Certainly the crow had to be a demon. The young girl knew that this event will forever change her life, once she was a good, naive, innocent, church going little girl, now all she wants is for her parents' killer to feel what she feels. Hatred, sorrow, and pain.
"So you accept the conditions of the contract. From this day forward I shall serve nobody but my Lady Adrian Grey. I shall protect you with everything I have, even including my life, until that fateful day where you achieve your revenge and I get to consume your soul." As the crow continued to speak the black feathers surrounding her began to grow in number. Soon enough she could see nothing but the silky black feathers that were once few in number.
Once all of the feathers landed on the floor Adrian was no longer suspended in the air, she came crashing down to the earth still wrapped in a blanket. Right before she hit the floor a man with hair the same color of the crow, eyes as red as blood caught her in mid-air. She could feel the blanket becoming loose on her.
"My lady you must be more careful, or else you will receive one hell of a bruise." The demon chuckled at his own joke but then looked her dead in the eye. "Now my lady where shall we place your contract mark. The more visible the contract the stronger the bond we share will be. Also you must give me a name."
"Place it on my left eye. That's as visible as it can get Sebastian Michaelis."
"Good choice my lady. Now this will hurt quite a bit." The demon smirked while saying this showing just how much he enjoyed the pain of mortals. As the demon placed the contract mark on the girls left eye she gritted through the pain.
"Well that wasn't so bad. I'm not some weak ch…" The girl was interrupted when she fainted from the pain of the contract mark. The demon grinned like a devil.
When the girl awoke she was outside of her burnt down mansion and there was no sign of her demon anywhere. Was that all some sort of twisted dream her mind came up with to deal with the pain of losing her family?
Upon realizing this she shed on singular tear. As soon as that tear left her eye a handkerchief wiped it off of her face. As she looked up she saw her red eyed demon. She stood up and pushed him away showing that she is independent and doesn't need his help.
"I Adrian Grey command you to rebuild my mansion to its former glory." The young girl shouted. Sebastian bowed and then set off with his Lady's order.
