Stuck in the past/ What used to be
A Black Butler story
This is my favourite Anime of all time. I am amazed I had not yet written a story for it so here at last is my take on what Ceil and Sebastian make of the modern world. Due to this being set know most of the characters form the manga and series have changed a little due to I had to update them for this also the Circus Troupe make an appearance as I imagine them know. Lady Dulahan.
Chapter 2
The circus
They pull up to the circus where a large silver grey morgen is already parked up clearly belonging to Saoirse and Auburn.
A figure is sat on the bonnet of the car slim and short not Auburn but Saoirse herself. Auburn is nowhere to be seen which strikes Ceil as odd until another figure moves into view.
'Sebastian and Ceil' Saoirse says
Auburn lends a hand in getting her off of the bonnet, glaring at Sebastian who glares back.
'Boys play nice' Saoirse warns
'What is wrong with the pair of you?' Ceil asks
'I know what's wrong they don't like each other, Auburn back of know' Saoirse warns again
Auburn steps back then he wraps a protective arm around her.
'I apologise Sebastian' Auburn tells him
'I accept and also apologise' Sebastian replies
Then someone walks past then they stop and back up to the other four.
'Grell?' Ceil asks
'Oh you know Grell and Will then?' Saoirse asks
'We do unfortunately' Sebastian answers menace in his eyes
'Oh no' Will sighs catching up
'NO FIGHTING' Saoirse growls
They all gulp then nod in agreement.
Then Saoirse skips happily off Auburn hurrying to catch her.
'So what are you two doing here' Ceil asks
'Ah well me and Will are dating' Grell explains
'He got over you then' Ceil tells Sebastian
'Never mind that' Will sighs dragging Grell off
Sebastian looks at Ceil like I hate you so much then they follow the other four. Inside the tent just like they expected it Saoirse is waving at them having saved them all seats.
Auburn is sat next to her one arm wrapped around her keeping her most likely from running off.
The whole thing goes off without a hitch nothing wrong at all then they all depart to their homes.
Later on
A knock at the door startles Saoirse she gets up then walks to the door when she opens it she gets the shock of her life a badly injured will is collapsed on the porch with no sign of Grell she takes out her phone with a shaking hand then texts Ceil to alert him.
'Auburn get out here know' Saoirse calls
'Oh my lord I have him' Auburn tells her bending to pick up Will's broken form
He carries him inside gently laying him on the sofa then he calls to his lady.
'Are you coming back in?' Auburn asks her
'Not yet Ceil is on the way' Saoirse answers her voice shaking
Then she sees headlights then knows the message was received loud and clear by the other two figures run up the steps, Saoirse lets them past then shuts the door.
'What happened' Ceil asks
'I don't know I just found a half dead reaper on my porch in the middle of the night' Saoirse answers walking to the living room
Will is propped on pillows Auburn kneeling next to the sofa cleaning the worst of his wounds. Auburn shakes his head as she walks near.
'Me he will talk to you know that' Saoirse answers
'Grell' Will mutters
'Where is Grell?' Sebastian asks
Saoirse glairs at him then he stops talking seeing the look in her dark eyes.
'Will what happened?' Saoirse asks gently
'The circus couldn't let them know' Will Murmurs
'Oh he helped you escape they captured him I am so sorry' Saoirse tells him
'Can you translate that please' Ceil asks
'The circus has upped their game they attacked Grell and Will, they couldn't let them know they aren't human so Grell manged to distract them so Will could escape' Saoirse explains
'You got all of that?' Ceil asks
'Grell' Will mutters again
'We need to move him upstairs my lady' Auburn says gently
Saoirse nods knowing he as normal is right.
Auburn picks up Will as carefully as he can. Saoirse turns for the door picking up a sword on the way past.
'I am going after Grell; Auburn my orders stay with Will' Saoirse says
'You need to say it' Auburn tells her
'In the name of my broken line the line of Nightfall I orders you to Protect William T Spears at all cost' Saoirse says raising her left hand
Auburn raise his right not being able to kneel then nods.
Then the Trio leave
THE GREAT GRELL RESCUE
'You lot are useless' Saoirse tells Ceil and Sebastian
'How?' Ceil asks
'You should have gone to the circus they won't be there' Saoirse sighs
Then they hear voices Sebastian goes first knowing he has to protect his charge and if anything happens to Saoirse
