Chapter #2

Once Upon A Dream

A/N: Eek ! Wow I had no clue that this would become this freaking popular. To be honest this was just something I wrote to get my writers block away but hey, to each their own I guess (oh that simile is so wrong jeez kids stay in school, I sure need to.) I should really be starting to go back-to-school shopping, but I'm to lazy to actually give a damn about what I look like during the school year. I either look like a dyke or a boy so yeah that's a bummer on my self esteem. Oh and zoom in on me transferring schools as well... Yeah I think I might take a break for awhile, just a mental health month or something. On with the story, I'm bitching again.

Ah, um... Well in a different kingdom while that whole ordeal with Ciel happened, a Raven-haired Prince sat in his garden full of flowers. This was the Akuma Kingdom, in all its glory. It was much like the Inferno Kingdom, But basically with totally different rulers.

But I digress we go back to the story again, and to our Beautiful Prince, who was awaiting on the news of the meeting with the other Kingdom. He didn't want a repeat of last time, where he had to almost pull his parents apart from the guards who were protecting the Queen and King of the Inferno Kingdom.

" I hope everything is ok." Thought the prince as he bit his thumb and moved to pick a rose from the many rose bushes in his garden, not noticing the little voice behind him.

" Ah, what if they declare war this time ? Of course, they'll take it back the minute they do but still, it's unhealthy to..."

The prince's thoughts were interrupted by a sharp pain at the back of head. " Ow, what the he-, oh its you." he said, turning to face the female in front of him. The girl was obviously a servant, wearing a white apron over a pretty black dress. She looked no more than 15-16 years old and had short,brown hair,with brown-silver eyes hidden underneath a pair of thin glasses to match. This girl was one of the prince's favorite servants because she never seemed to be scared of him like most of the help, but she looked like she had a large amount of respect for him, which helped his ego a little too much.

" Momo what on earth was that for ? Did I do that thing that pisses you off again ?" " Oh you mean breathing My Lord ?" the girl replied smartly as she got a scoff in impatience. " Whatever, what brings you here little one ? You know I'm on edge about today and I've been inattentive this entire time, so what on earth do you have to say that can possibly get my attention right now ?" the Prince asked irritably, twirling the black rose he picked earlier.

" Well, if you listened to me earlier, you would have known that Your Majesty and... Mistress?, Momo asked looking at her master for conformation but got a 'Hey I don't even know myself look instead as she started up again shaking her head. " Ah, are requesting your company, they asked for you as soon as the Queen and King left. One more thing Master-" the girl was cut off with a finger to the lips and a hand to the cheek, she scowled at her master, and got a chuckle in return.

" Its Master Sebastian, young one, and oh, by the way, your ears came out again." the Prince said, walking off and leaving the poor girl with the bunny ears on her own to deal with it. " Hey !" she shouted back at her master before he walked into the Castle. " Your wings are out silly !" she yelled and stuck her tongue out at him before running off.

Sebastian looked to see two big, black wings behind him. He sighed and tucked them back in, before making his way into the castle.

" Sebby !" a red head cried out in happiness towards the young man walking into the throne room they were in, not bothering to knock , or letting the herald announce his presence. " Ooh ! I'm so glad to see you~ I missed you so much ! Did you miss me ?" the red-head questioned,as the prince raised a hand to massage the headache forming in his head.

" Hello... Mother Grell, I see your chipper as always." Sebastian said with a little bit of exasperation in his voice as he spoke. He still couldn't belive that this... Woman ?, he could never tell, was the person that birthed him. While he loved his 'mom', he could find him a bit... Annoying. " Momo told me that you wanted to see me , and that it was urgent."

" Ooh yes !" Grell said before he was cut off by his/her, husband. " Yes son, we have some... Well good and some bad news." he said with a strait face, before it was smacked off by his wife? " Oh William honey ! Don't say that with such a strait face, you'll scare him !" Grell exclaimed at his/her husband. Goodnaturedly she/he gave out a small laugh before speaking again.

" Well honey the good news is that, well you know the feud that's been going on since you were like two ?" " Yes ?" Sebastian answered furrowing his brow with confusion, wondering where this crazy man was going with this. " Yeah, that's over with !" Grell yelled happily clasping his hands together and swishing from side to side. " Excuse me ? Ok that is not how fighting works, there is a lot of hitting, and yelling, and you mean to tell me there was none of that ? That you just said " Oh I think we should end the feud" and they just said " Ok"? Sebastian asked, a look of pure and utter shock spread across his face.

" Yes well, no that's not exactly what happened, Sebby." the 'Queen' said twirling his red locks around his long finger. " Then what happened ?" the Prince asked again this time with more agitation and impatience laced in his voice. " Well... Sebby... Your getting... Married." Grell said sheepishly, moving to hide behind his husband who currently looked bored of the situation, but interested in his sons reaction.

For a second, everything was quiet. Sebastian's face was completely black, no emotion evident on his face, before anyone spoke, Sebastian being the one to break the silence with a question. " Who are they." he stated. He felt there was no more questions to ask, only statements to be said. " Excuse me ? Could you repeat that for me ?" " Who are they." Sebastian repeated, his expression never-changing.

Grell and William exchanged a look of confusion before answering their son. Usually in situations like this The King had to do all the talking. Really, none of the people he wanted Sebastian to wed got past the greeting, because The stupid Prince would say something rude to that person, making them run off and hurting their feelings.

" My son you are to marry the only child of the Phantomhive Castle, Ciel Phantomhive, age 18." he said looking at his son expectantly, and only getting a better surprise wen he didn't get a reaction. " This person is not a girl," the Prince said, again stating and not asking any questions. " No,I am afraid he is not dearest child," Grell said with a frown. This wasn't like his son. He'd be throwing a hissy fit by now. Maybe he was finally hitting one of those stages...

Sebastian bent at the waist, both his hands at the side of his hips, and bowed to his parents. " Is there anything else you would like to say to me Mother Grell, Father ?" he said, no one noticing his reason for bowing was to hide his scowl. Him, MARRIED ? As if, and to a little brat no less. No matter, he'd just do the usual, piss the young lad off and get back to his days of solitude.

" Yes, you are to leave home next week and live with the young Prince as to get a feel for your new 'queen'. The King said that last word with sarcasm but Sebastian decided to ignore it. " If that is all, then I must go, I have to talk with my servant girl, and get ready to pack. Thankyou Mother, Father."

And with that, The young Prince stood up and walked away, leaving his red-headed mother/papa, and Father in the throne room with awed expressions.

" William honey, I think he's pretty upset about this whole thing." Grell said, twisting another one of his kinky red locks around his finger again. " And why do you say that ?" the King asked looking at his husband with a questioning look.

" His wings are out again."

" Oh."

Sebastian sat in the study of the Castle. He felt like he needed a drink and somewhere to be alone without Momo bothering him about what happened. He knew he'd tell her eventually, because the little bunny demon seemed to know EVERYTHING. But right now a good scotch, and a place to think was what he needed, and fast.

The prince was on his third glass of liquor before he was interrupted by a voice in his thoughts.

" Here again drinking your problems away, brother ?" a smooth voice asked by the doorway. " Go away Claude, I have enough to deal with anyway, your bullshit isn't going to make it any better." The prince said lashing out at his younger brother, he already had a headache, and now this ? Oh hell no. He'd be dammed if he was gonna be pissed off twice in one day.

" Ooh, snippy today ? I heard that the Queen and King of the Inferno Kingdom came today. Did Mother and Father talk your ear off about how horrible they were again ? Or maybe they just said screw yelling about them and just yell at you ?" Claude sneered, not noticing the uncaring expression on his big brothers face.

" Actually it was quite the opposite, the feud is over." the elder prince said as he poured himself another glass.

" Excuse me ?" the younger prince said, shock written all over his-otherwise strait ( just like his daddy, oh I'm so proud.)-face. " I know that's exactly what I said." Sebastian said before sipping his drink and looking out of his study window, not really focusing on anything, just staring.

" I'm getting married too," he said sipping again on his drink , and turning to look at his brother finally.

" Your kidding me,"

" I never lie." was the simple reply, as he sipped once again on the depleting scotch.

" Pour me one of those." Clause said, as he made his way to sit down in the chair next to his elder brother. Sebastian obeyed, and got another glass. He poured the golden liquid into the two glasses in front of his and gave one to his baby brother.

" So, whose the lucky girl this time ?" the younger asked slipping the burning liquid down his throat and looking at his big brother. Sebastian laughed a, cruel and mean laugh. " Its not a 'girl' this time, its a boy, and this boy, just so happens to be the only son of the Phantomhive castle. We are to wed, and this way our Kingdoms will merge and no fighting will come out of it because we are family," the elder replied downing the rest of his glass in one gulp.

" Mm..." was all Claude could say. This was obviously not a time to play right now, right now he had to be serious and lay down the law with Sebastian. " Big brother, this might seem crazy to you, but maybe the reason why your so pissed right now, is because you've never met this boy, and therefore you can't even say wether or not you can like him or not ? Because if so I can tr-"

" Stay out of this little one, this has nothing to do with you." Sebastian scoffed and got out of his seat ant brushed his clothes off, moving to the door. " Wait Big brother," Claude said nit moving from his spot. " Yes, little one ?"

" Whatever you do, don't fall in love with that boy."

Sebastian made no noise announcing his departure. Claude smirked, taking one last swig before getting up and ringing the servant bell to get someone to clean up the mess.

" Ah, this was too easy."

And the spider left its broken web to make a new, more prettier one.

That night, Sebastian called Momo to his chambers to help him get dressed and undressed for bed. It was more like he was bitching to her while he dressed himself for bed. By the time he has in his bed clothes, Momo knew the whole story from Sebastian's perspective, giving her opinions, ah-huhs and mhms to show she was listening.

" And now I have to leave in a week to live at their Castle- I'm taking you by the way - so I can get 'proper training' on how to treat my partner, this is ridiculous !" the young master exclaimed. Momo put her hands on her pink-clad hip (she was dressed for bed too.) and stared at her master, who was sitting cross-legged on his bed.

She felt bad that she couldn't help, after all she was a servant, ( and a little girl ) and didn't know about matters like this, but the next time she opened up her mouth she layed down some wisdom for her master. " Prince Sebastian, I don't really know about this, but I just want you to know, that no matter what, you're still you. And that I care about you and hate to see you so upset like this. This is for the fate of our kingdom, and I don't know about you, but I wouldn't be taking this as well as you are right now."

Sebastian stared at his maid, her hands in front of her balled into tiny, light-brown fist. She looked determined and happy. The Prince reached out and grabbed the girl by the wrist. Before she knew it, she was wrapped up in a tight hug by her master. " Thank you, young one." he said still holding her in his grasp.

' Kissama, he's being cute again' she thought as she returned the hug. " Baka, no problem." and the two stayed like that. Till the next day.

A:N/ So that was chapter 2. Now I know what your thinking, Momo and Sebastian have a pretty intimate relationship huh ? Well their best friends, so I thought it would be nice If Sebastian had someone to lean on that would understand his weird, bitchy, smart-ass ways, and would give him a run for his money. Momo is not supposed to be one of those stupid Original Characters that falls in love with like one of the major characters, and ruins the whole plot. No. Just no. And she's 15-16 so in my eyes Sebastian isn't even interested in her. Don't worry though, she does get a love interest. It is a character, but not a major one, can you guess ^-^ ? If you can I'll give you a shout-out in the next one. Here's a hint, its one of the servants so you have
