Chapter 4: The Meeting

Ciel pulled the bell to call for his butler. He would have to give a task of leaving the letters at both the Hiwatari and Niwa's houses. He waited patiently for his butler to come. It took about five minutes but soon his butler came to the room with a bow.

"Have you called, my lord?"

"Yes. I have a task for you to do." Ciel said as he stared at his butler sternly.

"What is it, master?" He asked, his eyes filled with curiosity.

"I wish for you to write two letters to the Niwas and the Hiwataris. Tell them to meet them at the outskirts of London at 9:00pm tonight." Ciel ordered.

"As you wish, my lord but pardon me for asking but whatever is this for?" His butler asked him, tilting his head.

"I wish for them to meet me there for a specific reason. You shall know once the time comes." Ciel said with a smirk."Oh, and make sure to not add my signature there. I don't want them to feel reluctant to come. Is that understood?"

"Yes, my lord." Sebastian bowed before walking out of his room. Ciel folded his hands together with a chuckle. This would be interesting tonight. He would love to see some action tonight.


Daisuke had came home and being doing his homework for about 2 hours now when he sensed a presence somewhere. Daisuke got up from his seat of his desk immediately. He looked around, alert and half scared. He wondered who was around. However, as soon as he looked around, the presence was gone. Daisuke sighed as he was about to sit down but noticed a letter on his desk. Blinking, he picked it up and opened it and began to read it.

To Daisuke Niwa,

Come to the outskirts of London at 9pm sharp. We will be expecting you. Don't make us wait.

From,

Unknown Sender

Daisuke blinked at the letter, slowly trying to figure this mysterious sender out. He saw Dark looking at the letter as well and he can tell that he was trying to figure out who send it as well.

Dark, should we go to this meeting that the mysterious sender called us? Daisuke asked his other half.

It doesn't sound like we have much of a choice. We might as well go.Dark replied with a worried tone in his voice.

But Dark, what happens if we get in trouble because of this situation?Daisuke wondered.

We would just have to find a way to get out of it then, Dai! Yeesh! Stop being such a worry wart!Dark said with a smirk on his face. Daisuke sighed. Maybe his other half was right. We might as well wait till that time comes. He won't tell his mom about anything. He didn't want his mother to stop him from his tracks. He then went back to homework, putting the letter away in his drawer.


Satoshi was in the computer looking up at Ciel Phantomhive. So far, he wasn't able to access into any of his files. He tried desperately to since he was so curious about the boy and also the undercover agent of the Queen. He sighed in frustration as he tried to breaking the security that so securely blocked his way to access yet he haven't had any success. Frowning, he gave up and got up from his seat when he noticed a letter on his bed. Suspicion crept in as he picked up the letter and opened it to read it.

To Satoshi Hiwatari,

Come to the outskirts of London at 9pm sharp. Don't keep us waiting.

From,

Unknown Sender

Satoshi narrowed his eyes at the letter, trying to find out who was the sender of this mysterious letter. He walked back to his seat to read the letter over and over again yet he cannot solve the problem in his head: Who is this sender? He again sighed in frustration of not able to figure out who the sender was. Then, he heard a chuckle, a icy one at that in his mind.

My, my, Master Satoshi. Seems your genius brain cannot figure out a simple letter. Came the mockery of Krad.

Get out of my brain, Krad. I don't have /anything/ to say to you. This is none of your business whatsoever.Satoshi glared at his other half.

Now, now getting defensive aren't we?He saw Krad smirked which made him more annoyed. After all, I sense this letter /does/ involve me, Master Satoshi unless I am wrong? After all, you know full well I don't lie.

Shut up, Krad. Get out of my brain unless I would force you to. Satoshi threatened his other half, getting more annoyed by the minute.

Oh...Well allow me to ask you one more thing, Master Satoshi. Do you agree to meet up with this 'person' that sent this letter?Krad asked in a cold, yet sweet way which caused shivers down Satoshi's spine.

I intend to. Now, Get. Out. Of. My. Mind. Satoshi demanded. A icy laughter erupted in his mind as he felt his other half disappear to the back of his mind. Satoshi sighed in relief as he paced around, thinking about what to do once he met the letter sender.


Ciel sat on a tree branch, hidden from view as he waited for the two to come. His butler was hiding next to him, as he knew his butler would be completely confused as to what is going to happen. Ciel had planned while he was in his office. He planned to perhaps wait for the two of them to come out get started with a fight. Then, he would have his butler to interfere with their fight. Then after that, he would perhaps fish information out about the two angels. Then, he would perhaps let them go. However, Ciel had wished to do more on those two angels. He sighed when he heard footsteps walking. Ciel immediately spotted Daisuke there, looking around and having a confused face on him. Apparently, he wore all black. Then, he saw Satoshi came next, wearing his normal school uniform attire.

Ciel watched, hoping his plan would somewhat work. He loved that his plan would shift to his favor. Then, he heard the two speak.

"Daisuke? What are you doing here?" Satoshi asked him, confused.

"I would love to ask you the same thing." Daisuke replied, also confused.

"Well, where is that mysterious sender?" Satoshi narrowed his eyes slightly.

"You too, Sato?" Daisuke asked, surprised now.

"Yeah. Wait, you also?" Satoshi asked, his turn to be surprised.

"Yeah. I was curious who it is now. Ugh, unless this is all a trap." Daisuke said in an annoyed tone. Ciel didn't think it was trap since all he wanted was to fish some info out. He sighed a bit on that as he continued to watch. That is when Satoshi's face turned from expressionless to a pained face as he held on one eye with his hand, as if covering it. Satoshi groaned as he backed away from Daisuke. Then, a burst of two wings from his back shot out and flapped a bit rapidly. Then, the hair of the boy turned from blue to gold and the clothing turned to a white attire. Then, a male straighten up from his position and looked around, his eyes now golden. Daisuke had stood there, glaring at him.

"Daisuke Niwa. I never thought I would get this perfect chance to kill you." Came the voice of the male.

"Give it off, Krad. Dark and I will never let off so easily on you." Answered the red-haired boy, his tone cold.

"My, my. A brave boy, are we now? Let's see how much you can keep your head in the air like that." He heard the male named Krad smirked, his tone icy. A white feather then was pulled out as it was thrown at Daisuke's direction. The red-haired boy dodged it. Then, he saw the red hair turned to purple, sleek hair and his eyes turned from red to purple and a complete black outfit came in place. Ciel recognized who it was. It was Dark of course. Dark stood up, smirking at Krad slightly as he gave a victorious grin at Krad.

"Man, my little Krad. I can't believe you will left me out from this fight. Have you missed your thief already?" Dark taunted at the glaring Krad.

"Dark Mousy. You shall die tonight by the blood of my hands." Krad growled as he spread his wings and launched forward toward Dark. Dark had somewhat had wings and now used his own to clash into Krad. Then, the two angels engage into a fierce fight. Ciel watched in awe as they clashed non-stop, a perfect light and darkness fight. He never thought to see such dynamic to a fight and this is his first witness. Perhaps Krad was meant to capture Dark and arrest him from doing further thievery and Dark was supposed to avoid that. Ciel sighed as he looked at his butler, giving him a signal. His butler nodded and had three silverware knives out, ready to aim purposely at the two fighting angels.

Then, the knives shot out towards the two angels in which both noticed at the same time and parted, barely dodging the knives that was about to pierce their skin. The two angels looked around, now rather alert and wondering who would have done such a thing. Ciel smirked at that seeing that his plan so far was going as it was supposed to be. He then jumped down from the tree, landing lightly and quietly on the ground. His butler followed behind him. He can hardly wait for this. He walked out towards the open, where the two angels immediately spotted him. Dark had his eyes narrowed while the other half lunged at him, ready to attack. Ciel groaned at that and jumped out of the way, landing a distance where Krad had landed.

"Ciel, what are you doing here at night time?" Dark who had landed on the ground had his arms crossed and watching him.

"Oh, to get some answers from the both of you." Ciel answered with a smirk.

"Answers? Like what sort of answers?" Dark eyes narrowed at him.

"Answers about your story about the life while living inside a host." Ciel replied, his voice stern.

"You knew about this?" A surprised expression came across the dark angel's face.

"Yes and now I wish to hear some information about this Black Wings kind of thing." Ciel nodded.

"And how would we know if we trust you?" It was Krad's turn to speak."After all, I don't wish to reveal about my past. All I wish is to kill you all."

"Hmph. You are too arrogant for your own good." Ciel snorted lightly."After all, I just want to make things clear in my head. To me, I still haven't gotten the full picture as to how an artwork with one soul would eventually have two souls and living in a living human body. It's like pieces of a puzzle, only except that the pieces that aren't found is still missing."

"Well," Dark paused slightly at that,"I suppose I'll tell you what I know. After all, Krad here won't tell you a hell of a thing." A white feather was thrown at Dark as of being offended. Dark dodged it easily.

"Hmph. I will only answer the questions you ask me and nothing more. Got it? Or shall I punch it into your head?" Krad said in an icy tone, staring at Ciel with annoyance.

"I got it." Ciel smirked."Now, perhaps you can tell me how a single soul can be turned to two souls?"

"Well, it is not supposed to be two souls." Dark began first,"The Hikaris are known for their magically special power to breathe life into artworks. The Black Wings are among the creation. However, as the ceremony was starting for the breathing of the life of the Black Wings, the Niwas interfered with it. As a curse, me and Krad were given birth as two incomplete souls. I go with the Niwas while Krad goes with the Hikaris. Ever since then, we are now two separate souls, never complete and together. I was supposed to steal the works of the Hikaris to prevent them from awakening and Krad was supposed to stop me from doing so and hunt me down, and end me off."

"I see." Ciel nodded, beginning to get the big picture,"Krad, how were you developed into becoming a hunter as Dark stated?"

"Hmph. The Hikaris drilled the information about Dark being the bad guy into my brain. They trained me to become a curse, a demon. I was supposed to kill unmercifully and only think as a vessel to the other Hikaris. Tch, I still think that they still simply are a vessel to me. I eventually became a as they say, a 'curse.'" Krad answered, rather disgusted on going into this topic.

"Hm... I see." Ciel nodded." And Dark, how were you trained as a thief or the Phantom Thief as they say?"

"For me, I was taught by the Niwas that I was a thief in the first place and supposed to steal the works of the Hikaris without fail. Eventually, I gained ability to become a thief and steal Hikari artworks and seal them. The Niwas have the power to seal artworks made by the Hikaris. Well, since then, Krad and I have become sworn enemies." Dark explained, sighing as to reveal such things.

"I see." Ciel nodded at the information, taking it slowly in. He began to wonder how they usually feel like when a Niwa would get tortured by these things happening to since they were born. Ciel sighed as he said finally,"I got everything I need."

"Good. Now if you would be so kind, I would very much like to continue my fight with Dark Mousy." Krad said as he looked like he was about to jump on Dark again.

"Oh, come on Krad! At least relax on your fighting skills for once!" Dark said in a half whinny, half mocking tone. Krad growled but as soon as he did, Krad's back was hunched over, one hand clenching tightly on his chest, growling in pain. His eye had a blue eye now which probably meant that Satoshi was forcing Krad back in. Then, the transformation happened and Satoshi took over again in which he collapsed on the floor, sighing. Dark, who now had Daisuke took over already, went by Satoshi's side.

"Satoshi, are you alright?" Daisuke asked in a worried tone.

"Fine. Let's go back." Satoshi answered emotionless.

"I suppose." Ciel sighed."I shall see you both tomorrow." With that, Ciel ran back towards London, Sebastian following behind him.
