Chapter 2
A/N: Hey my little yaoi kittens, I'm back with the next chapter of my story, as I said in the first chapter Ciel has been forcefully sent on a trip out of the country by his parents who want him to get out of the house, well that's all I had to say and I guess I'll see you all in the next authors note.

(POV Ciel)
What am I thinking, of course there's no way that man is a devil, it's impossible; I sighed, trying to relax myself as I began to walk toward the inn, but I found myself freezing as I heard something, it was as if someone was singing.
Looking around for the source of the melody, I found myself looking back at the male who was bound and saw that his eyes were closed once a again and a smile seemed to grace his features as he hummed a hypnotic tune. He only seemed to repeat the same melody over and over again but it was such a beautiful sound.
" Hey! Cover your ears."
Someone ran over to me and covered my ears, the sound of the the melody was blocked out and I turned to see a woman with magenta hair and eyes looking at me," please cover you ears and follow me," I did as she told me and followed as I was lead into a building, from what the foyer was like, it seemed she had lead me to the inn," okay, you can uncover your ears," I put my hands down and gave her a questioning look.
" Why did you do that and who are you?" I asked with one hand on my hip," my name is Mey-Rin, the keeper of this in and most people who come to this village for the first time don't know to cover their ears when they hear him singing to himself," I sighed, what is it with these people and this guy," what is it with everyone in this village calling that guy a Devil?" I asked, hoping I'd finally get an answer.
" He's not a devil," I was so relieved when she said this, finally, someone who isn't insane," I knew it," I said to myself triumphantly," he's a siren," at those words all hope for anyone being sane just flew out the window," a siren? You mean those creatures that are said to live in the ocean and lead sailors to their death?"
" Yes, except, not all sirens live in the water, he happens to live on land, hypnotizing people no matter what age and killing them; he originally came to the village looking for a prey but a few villagers saw through his disguise and captured him," I really didn't care about this story, I just wanted to get a room and sleep till the sun rises or maybe even longer," well thanks for the whole story, but all I really want is a room for a couple days."
" Okay, then come with me so you can check in and I'll give you your room key," I was so relieved to hear these words as I followed her; I swear that my feet were going to fall off if I don't get these shoes off soon.
" Just sign here sir," Mey-Rin pulled out a book and set it before me opening to a page with a blank line for me to write down my name, the date and how long I would be staying; I quickly filled out the information and she took the book handing me a key," your room is down the hall and you go to the left three doors down," I thanked her and practically ran to my room but not before stopping to look out a window to see that it was getting darker and that man no longer wore that smile.
His head hung as if he were sleeping, I wonder how he could even sleep out there, it must've been uncomfortable on the ground; in the blink of an eye I fond myself flinching when I saw that his eyes had snapped open and he was looking in my direction.
Once again, I felt like I was being put into some kind of trance as I looked into those red eyes, quickly, I shook my head, snapping myself out of it I continued walking to my room, telling myself to not look outside.
I finally came to a door that was labeled room 302, the same number that was on the key that I had gotten from Mey-Rin," finally, I can get some sleep," I told myself as I unlocked the door to enter the room.
The room was nice, it had a two person bed, a nightstand right next to it with a lamp, a coffee able and a couch were close to a closed window with drapes, and there was a small television on top of what looked like a dresser; I threw down my bag and rolled my shoulder, hearing a small crack coming from it as I waled over to the large bed and collapsed on top of it, letting out a sigh of happiness from how soft it was, I really should've put my pajama's on but I'm to tired to even care.
I'm just so sleepy and this bed is just so comfortable...I think I could just...fall...asleep...
My eyes snapped open and I began to look around frantically, the last thing I could remember was passing out in my room, but know I'm finding myself in a dark forest with a single path that only went in one direction, forward.
I looked behind me and saw nothing but darkness and I guess I have nothing else to do but go forward; I was hesitant, but I began to walk down the path unknown to what may be lurking in the shadows, nor where I was going.
" Hello, is anyone here?" I asked, hoping that I wasn't alone, I've never liked the dark it always scared me in many ways.
Do not be afraid little one.
I found myself jumping at the sound of the dark, seductive voice," who said that?" I looked around and didn't see anything, but I did see a a raven perched on a branch, its feathers were wispy, like fire but they were jet black and its eyes glowed blood red, but they were familiar as if I had seen them before.
I did; I can help you little one.
The raven flew down from its perch and its form shifted as it changed into a black cobra, slithering up my body causing me to tremble in fear as the snake came face to face with me.
I was met with those red orbs and found myself entranced by them, I really hated it when I became like this but those eyes were so enticing.
There's no reason to be afraid little one, I can take you away from all of this
I didn't know what I was doing nor why my body was moving on its own but I could feel myself nod unconsciously as the snake around my neck changed into a wispy shadow like form.
It approached me, a pair of crimson eyes glowing through the darkness as what looked like an arm and hand; the hand had long black claws as I felt it caress under my chin, it's claws scratching under my chin dangerously to the point where my skin was red, threatening to break and drip blood down my neck.
Such an obedient little one
The voice came out of the shadows and what I saw snapped me out of my trance like state to look in pure terror as I began to back away," Wh-what are you? Keep awa from me," I stated, continuing to back away from the monster as it began to walk forward.
Why do you look so frightened little butterfly, I only wish to help you
In an instance I found the creature standing an inch away from me as it's arm wrapped around my waist and pulled me close so my chest was pressed against his torso," Le-let me go!"
Shh, you're frightened again little butterfly, you're fighting me but why do you try? Your beautiful wings are ripped now so you can't fly, so hush and listen to my beautiful lullaby.
The creature began to whisper this in my ear over and over in a singing voice, it was so soothing that I could feel every ounce of fear beginning to leave my body, I couldn't even remember what I was afraid of in the first place.
Yes, there's nothing to fear little butterfly
The creatures jaw opened almost inhumanly as I was met with rows beyond rows of razor sharp teeth; I desperately wanted to cry out for help or run away but it was like my body was betraying me, my feet seemed glued to the ground and whenever I tried to open my mouth no words would come out, but it was pointless and everything disappeared into an eery black darkness.
I jolted awake with a startled yelp and I looked around to see that I was back in my room in the inn within this strange village. I wonder what that dream could've been about, some terrifying monster, me almost getting killed, there must be a meaning to it...or maybe it was just a nightmare.
I sighed a looked out my window to see the quarter moon was now fully risen into the star lit sky of the night. The sight seemed to relax me as I went into the bathroom and put on my pajamas, finding it very difficult to sleep in my clothes.
I came out of the bathroom in a pair of pajama pants and a shirt as I walked over to the bed and pulled out the cover, crawling under, and covering myself as I shut my eyes, hoping that I wouldn't have anymore nightmares tonight.

A/N: Well everyone that was the next chapter of my story, sorry if it sucks, anyways I suggest listening to the soundtrack of a video on YouTube called wolfsong, if you hear the song the female wolf is humming then you'll hear the same melody our little siren is always humming, well that's all I had to say and I guess I'll see you all in the next chapter, Ciao.
