Get a Grip
"What am I doing?!," Sebastian mentally hollered at himself as he hurtled another fallen burning beam. The pull he was experiencing was almost as painful as the internal flames rolling through his arms and bare chest. Almost. At the same time it was calming but an underlying tone of urgency called him as he ran at his top demon speed.
The last room on the other side of the burning hall. That was his end point. His eyes burning brighter than the flames around him, his limbs moving on their own. Corner after corner flew past him as he made it to the hallway he was looking for. Without rhyme or reason the door was kicked in. (He really does love his dramatic entrances) Scanning the room his eyes found the source of the intolerable pull. Off in the far corner with flames circling her a small girl laid limp. He watched mesmerized as a flame danced forward and caught on her sleeve, instantly making his arm flare in pain. His face went instantly from impassive to rage. Rushing to the girl so quickly the flames sputtered and went out.
Without the immediate danger he was able to look at her, really, truly look at her. Not quit completely however. The long waves of shadow were in her face. To Sebastian that was a problem. He wanted... No needed to see her face. Sliding his gloved hand up to his own face he bit off his glove, slowly. Retracting his longer black nails to make them safe his hand slid across her face, the sleeping maiden. Keeping his hand on her cheek he whispered, "You're beautiful."
The fire was coming back from its earlier retreat snapping him out of his insensible state. Going to grab her arm to hoist her up to him, he saw the damage of the fire. Instead of causing her more pain he swept her up like a child. Her unconscious self curled against his unclothed chest sending jolts of...
"What is that, the phantom wave I keep feeling?"
Carefully holding her tighter Sebastian strode to the window. Leaping through it backwards so as to guard the frail human in his arms from the falling glass. He let his head fall to look at her, this girl he had to protect and kept walking back to where the young master was still standing in shock.
Ciel's POV:
The sound of breaking glass is what finally broke me out of my stupor. I jerked my head around to the sound to see a terrifying image. Sebastian was gripping someone so close to him I was afraid they would break. I felt that fear slip as I looked at my butler, his hair in front of his eyes and a darkness radiating off him in a sinister cloud. One of his arms was red, a fire burn I guessed. He stopped right in front of me and gently laid the sleeping form on the morning dew grass.
"What did you think you were doing! I was ordering you to stop and come back but you just ignored me," I spat at my servant, "You assured me no other forms of orders would fall upon your ears, or have you changed your mind!"
"I'm deeply sorry my lord I genuinely don't know what happened. I had every faith that you would remain safe as their is no one alive anywhere near," the demon butler smirked with his little half bow.
"Or did you forget that you had me 'take care of' this whole corrupted village?"
I could feel my face flushing as my curiosity turned to rage, "I remember, it was only a bit ago anyway! Stop jumping the question..."
"Why."
"Were."
"My."
"Orders."
"IGNORED!"
I knew I wasn't scaring him but yelling at him was making me feel a bit better about this whole thing. Aaaannnnddd what did he do in response, he just stood there staring at the girl. I guess he was trying to figure out how to answer my demand.
Sebastian's eyes slowly moved taking in the entirety of the girls face. After the million thoughts went though his head the answer revealed itself.
"She's my mate, everything I have been waiting for. What do I do now that she is here?"
Now with the answer his master was looking for his head was lifted, still surrounded by the sinister cloud.
"My mates needs eclipses the orders of my current master."
He watched as the look of rage slowly was replaced with one of guarded curiosity. The demon butler had never associated himself with any of the demons that had actually found their mates. Now he was wishing he had. He would at least have some clue as to what he was supposed to do now. Being in a contract at the same time would really keep him on his toes.
"I'm sorry my young master but it seems as though I have the same questions you do and no real way to find an answer," Sebastian smirked continuing, "It could be said that since the mates needs are of greater interest to me that the few days following the young lady's walking will be most confusing."
Schooling his expression into one of the utmost seriousness Ciel thought about what that would mean for him. Everything in the mansion, well once he thought about it, was done by Sebastian.
"Well ready the carriage then, the sooner we get the fair maiden home the sooner you can adjust to the dual responsibilities."
Sitting in the carriage Ciel had the young woman's head resting in his lap. He wasn't exactly usually used as a pillow so this was a bit of an embarrassment for him. Fidgeting to try to get a bit more comfortable he watched as she curled onto her side, most likely stirred by his movement. Moving her head like she was creating a niche in a pillow to make it more comfortable, her face was practically buried in his shirt. The feeling of her breath on his stomach was making him blush.
"The nearest town is still a half hour away. I can handle being a human pillow for at least that long. Right?"
Looking down at the sleeping beauty in his lap he hoped that Sebastian would act less like a demon, even if it was just in front of her. She was too... pure to be corrupted by the butler. Sighing while moving a bit of hair away from her face he was reminded of someone but who he did not know. Her face was one of a child but it was obvious that she was much older than her innocence portrayed. While watching, her eyes slowly peeled open and she sucked in a content breath, like she had just woken up from a long nights sleep. Going to grab the pillow to pull it over her eyes so she could go back to sleep, she found a leg instead. Quickly getting up proved to be the last thing she needed as the black came and went while she doubled over.
"Sebastian quick she's awake!"
The carriage was jerked to a stop and a door was almost ripped off it's hinges revealing an impressive figure. Sebastian then proceeded to kneel next to his pained mate letting one of his hands find one of hers. The other to her cheek.
"What's wrong with her?," a now frightened Ciel asked from the other side of the seat. He could almost feel the pain that she was feeling which under even normal circumstances would be odd. Slowly her hands loosened from holding her head and she slowly lifted her head. The sight in front of her was one that seemed to prove to her that she was either dead, dreaming, or crazy. One tall, dark and brooding Sebastian Michaelis and one bluenette, eyepatch wearing, chibi.
They both watched as her eyes widened then glazed but when she blinked that was when they were really taken aback. One eye was now a deep red color and the other was a glorious blue-green.
"S-sebastian, am I dreaming."
"How do you know his name," Ciel then carefully asked he knew asking too much would just enrage the demon present.
"Well the same way I know yours, Ciel, but I suppose that you have no idea who I am do you,?" She said while looking pained, curious, and a bit joyous.
Motioning for her to continue Ciel was finding himself secretly afraid for no apparent reason.
"My name is Adelaide Faure, I'm a Upper I would have been graduating in 2016 a head of my class. None of that matter though because this is just a dream or I'm going insane."
Back in London a certain silver haired ex-reaper was stopped short of his work, he suddenly really wanted to go to the Phantomhive manor. No he needed to go, but had know idea why. Grabbing his old weapon he left in a hurry, having the sudden urge to protect something... or someone.
