Sebastian gasps, his eyes widen in shock as he sees his king being taken by Claude's rook, rolling to the middle of the board. "Bocchan... no." he whispers.

"Well well well." Claude says dangerously, "What a turn of luck this is." Sebastian glares at Claude, his body filling with rage. "I'm sorry." Claude says in a semi-comforting tone, grabbing the black king, "But, you're master is mine now." he kisses the piece, making Sebastian burn up in his own anger. "Now, enough of that." he says putting the piece down, "Alright Michaelis." he says, "Bring me my prize by..." he pauses, looking at the time on his pocket watch, "8 o'clock." Sebastian sighs, rising up, checking the time on his own pocket watch.

"That's in five minutes." Sebastian says.

"So?" Claude says.

"So." Sebastian says, "That's not enough time to explain the situation."

"That's not my problem. I'm not the loser. Now," Claude says dangerously, "Bring me...my prize." he growls. Sebastian growls back, turning around, exiting the room.

'How is the young master going to react to this?' Sebastian asks himself as he quietly enters his master's room, silently walking to the bed, and sliding in. He sighs softly, wrapping his arm around Ciel's waist, closing his eyes.

"Hmm." Ciel hums, "Good morning Sebastian." he says hugging his butler, "I hope I wasn't moving to much."

"Oh no." Sebastian lies, "You were quite still." Ciel smiles, kissing his butler's pale cheek.

"You're different this morning." he says, "Are you ok? You look really uncomfortable. Do you need help relieving anything?" he asks the last question in a seductive tone. Sebastian shakes his head.

"We need to go." Sebastian whispers.

"Go?" Ciel asks, "Go where?"

"I'll explain on the way." Sebastian says quickly dressing his master. Once he's finished he picks his master up bridal style and sprints, at his full demon speed, away from the manor.

"Sebastian." Ciel says clinging to his butler's neck, "What's going on? Where are we going? Why are we going?"

"I'll explain later." Sebastian says. "Why not now?" Ciel asks.

"We're not far away yet." Sebastian says running faster.

"When will be far away?" Ciel asks, "Tell me why you're running." Ciel says. Sebastian ignores him, shifting his master's weight between his arms. "Sebastian!" Ciel yells, "I order you to tell me what's going on!" Sebastian immediately comes to a halt. Setting his master down on a soft patch of grass, under a shady tree.

"Bocchan." Sebastian says. "I... I made a bet." he said, "And I lost."

"Be more descriptive Sebastian." Ciel orders. Sebastian sighs,

"I was playing chess with 's butler. And I lost...so, now you belong to Claude for 24 hours." Ciel's mouth drops open, rage bubbling up inside him.

"How dare you!" he hisses rising to his feet. "How dare you Sebastian!" he screams slapping his butler's face, "How dare you! *Slap* How dare go so low as to bet me off in a childish contest*SLAP* like I'm your pet! *SLAP* And the nerve of you to do it behind my back *Slap* and not tell me before hand!" he grabs Sebastian's tie, pulling his head dangerously close to his. "I've givin you everything!" he whispers coldly, "Everything you could ever desire, everything you could ever want, everything...and this is how you repay me? By betting me like I'm some mere toy. Is that all i am to you Sebastian? A toy?" Sebastian remains silent, making Ciel's blood boil, tears forming in his eyes. "I trusted you Sebastian!" he yells sinking his nail's into Sebastian's shoulders, making Sebastian hiss in pain. "Remember this pain!" he orders, "REMEMBER IT! And let this be a reminder of what happens when you go behind my back and use me. Because if you dare do it again, there will be hell to pay! And that's a promise." there comes a rustle of leaves from above their heads. Sebastian looks up, only to be welcome with a fist coming into contact with his head, making him pass out on the spot. "Sebastian...?" Ciel asks.

"You don't know how pleased I am to see you... My prize." a voice says dangerously, Ciel gasps, his body trembles. There comes a low seductive chuckle, followed by excruciating pain, and Ciel's world quickly falls into darkness.
