Okay, just a nice warning to all of you reading: this chapter is pretty fast-paced so you might want to pay a little more attention than you did with the other chapters. This one is getting weird... like creepypasta weird. So... enjoy? There is some gore in this, so just a fair warning. But wait! There's more! If you picture what's happening in your head then they'll be even more blood and flesh! So have a fun time reading! Yay! Blood, death, and destruction! :D

Sebastian's legs raced almost as fast as his mind in order to reach the top of the house where the enemy clutching the weapon was still set. The person had only shot one bullet and so he relaxed himself from the aiming position like he was finished with his job. The black cloak he had over his head and back blocked his eyes from anyone looking at it, all that was noticeable was his nose, lips, and chin. The butler quickly came in so close that he could tell the criminal looked like it's facial features took the form of a little girl's-but no more talking about its appearance.

The demonic being sped nearer towards the evil-doer and then he had snatched the rifle from his grip like the speed of light, so he wouldn't run away, Sebastian ran right into the human. Now they were both free-falling down a fifty-foot tree with the butler on top, ready to smash the human into pieces once they landed. He stared at the his face for what seemed like forever, studying his or her's brown hair that was slightly showing for so long that it felt like this was all in slow motion. With a groan from the criminal, everything grew quiet. He still wasn't dead, but very much alive. He must be a supernatural being much like Sebastian.

He stared into him with boredom as he spoke. "Very well, since you're not dead then I hope you don't mind if I find out who you are." The enemy paid no mind as he yanked off his cloak. Long, brown hair, shimmering blue eyes, and a blue ball gown was revealed in an instant. "So, you are Maddison Grace."

The body started to twitch rapidly like a crazy person. Maddison's pupils slowly shrank to the size of a speck-much opposite to the size of the smile that was appearing on her face. She began to laugh manically.

Sebastian gasped at the awful sight of her grin that was growing literately from ear to ear, her lips ripped her flesh apart in order to create the creepy smile she was going for. He could see her whole jaw bone like he had just dissected her face, blood was rushing from her large wound like a waterfall. Soon her teeth were stained a dirty red. "What the devil are you?" Sebastian asked a little more terrified but still serene.

"What the devil am I?" Maddison's voice was croaky and sounded screechy, sort of like her words were coming straight out of an old radio. "I have no idea!"

Sebastian leaned back a little to get out of the way of her head, which was swinging side to side as fast as the blades on a flying helicopter. Her laughing was louder than before. This one was crazier than Grell Sutclif.

"Sebastian!" Ciel cried out. He was cradling Maddison in his arms like a child while he tried not to rub against her gun-shot wound. All of the blood was soaking deep into her gown, staining it forever making it less and less flawless than before. "Come help me, dammit!"

After long moments of no response from his butler, he quickly stood up and raced outside to get him himself. "You'd better quit hiding!" Ciel's throat had grown a lump in it, but he still forced his voice to come through.

The laughing coming from the forest had forced the boy to throw his head to where Sebastian was holding down the criminal. He jogged to him as fast as he could as relief slowly entered his body. His legs immediately locked up at the display that he was never expecting to see. "M-Maddison? What the hell is going on?!"

"Young Master, don't get too close." Sebastian warned and then he flickered his wide eyes over at the girl lying limp in Ciel's arms. He looked back down at the Maddison beneath him. Without any hesitation whatsoever he slashed his hand through her neck like a sword. Blood splattered everywhere.

"What the hell is wrong with…" Ciel started.

"Don't worry, she's only a clone."

"What do you mean?"

"C-Ciel… it's m-midnight…" Maddison moaned softly in agony. "… I'm going… they're taking m-me… I'm… I'm going i-insane…" She peeled her eyes opened from squeezing them tight and then she… smiled.

"Maddison?" Ciel felt as if he were going to cry. "What's wrong with you?"

Her stomach bounced rapidly and there was a sound going off in her throat every time it did so. Was she crying… or laughing?

Sebastian glanced up at the starry sky and then pulled Ciel towards him as he dropped the body onto the ground with a thud and crack of a bone breaking. "Stand back My Lord."

The young boy stared at the insane creature that used to be his love as she kept chuckling in her throat. Astonishment rolled in like clouds on a rainy day once four long spider-like legs poked out of her back and lifted her up like she was a queen. She twitched and smiled a normal smile. "Save me… please." She pleaded while-at the same time-showing happiness. The legs that outstretched through her back whisked her away like a giant spider running for its life. The midnight sky coated her until she wasn't visible anymore.

Ciel's heart was pounding against his chest like an animal in a cage yearning to escape. His hands were sweating almost as crazy as Maddison. Trembling, he took a step forward and then hopelessly fell onto his knees. "Maddison…" He whispered.

Sebastian sighed at his master. "Come, My Lord. We need to follow her if you want her to return to normal."

He clenched his teeth as anger flourished through him. "Why are you acting so serene right now? Did you know about all this?"

"I found out what she was when I ran into one of her clones. If I were to of known sooner I would have told you." He responded.

"What is she then?" He managed to possess enough strength to return to his normal self.

"Maddison is possessed by a creature that is insane during midnight and she gets worse and worse the more nights that pass. However, when it turns to morning she doesn't recall anything she did. It all began way back in ancient Rome when a group of Romans stumbled upon a cursed ring made of witchcraft. They did their research on it and found out that whoever wears it sets a curse on them that, not only makes them insane, but have a severe case of a disease or disorder. In this case, Maddison has kleptomania. Soon they will start to cast clones of themselves everywhere to help spread the insanity."

"So, she actually was the one committing the crimes, but she doesn't remember any of it like she has a case of amnesia." Ciel jumped to his feet. "How do we stop the curse?"

"You must get her to take off the ring." Sebastian informed and then picked him up like he was Maddison. "It won't be as easy as it sounds though."

"Very well, let's hurry up and make do." Ciel demanded and they were off like a bird in the sky with no wings.

Sebastian leaped onto roof after roof in the direction Maddison went, it felt like forever until he finally stopped to observe his surroundings. Ciel felt sick to his stomach, not only because it was like a roller-coaster jumping on every building in London, but he was scared for Maddison's sake. What if they can't stop the curse and she'll have to live like this forever?

The powerful butler bounded off onto the ground where he gently set Ciel on his feet. He cautiously looked around to see if anyone was watching them, then he got down on one knee to take a closer peek at the black trail of goo placed onto the dirt.

"What is that, Sebastian?" He winced a little when he saw his partner-in-crime stick one of his fingers in it and whiffed it.

"It's a liquid that the legs in Maddison's back leaves as a trail." He said before flinging it back onto the ground. "She's nearby, we can travel the rest of the way on foot."

Ciel raced with Sebastian down many roads and turns and right when he knew they were lost, they met a huge, old building. The windows were dusty and cracked, it looked impossible to see through them. The walls were most unattractive with the color almost all washed away. This place could be hundreds of years old, how is still not being demolished? They studied the giant tube-like cylinders standing upright on the roof and watched smoke pour out from them for as long as they could before it grew old.

"What is a cursed creature like Maddison doing in an abandon factory?" Ciel questioned aloud.

"That's exactly why they chose their home here." Sebastian explained and began to search the building.

"Wait, Sebastian, how many clones do you think there will be?" He grew more frightened at the thought of having to murder multiple clones of Maddison every step of the way.

First I was at a ball and now I'm looking for my cursed crush who grew legs out of her back and is running away from me. I guess that's what I get for making a contract with a damn demon. Ciel rolled his eyes and continued to follow Sebastian, trying to disregard that he didn't answer his question.

"Why didn't you answer me?" He said with his voice echoing throughout the building.

"You sure do talk a lot, My Lord." He replied with a smirk, knowing that would piss him off even more.

Ciel started to grind his teeth. "I do not." He hissed.

The butler cautiously stuck his arm out in front of his master to stop him from walking any further. He stared ahead of him, watching something in the distance. "Wait here, I see something." He warned in a soft yet stern whisper.

Ciel set his eyes right where Sebastian had his. He waited for a chance to see a beast crawl out of the shadows for a life time. There was a sudden movement in the dark corner. It was difficult to make out exactly what or who it was, but they knew to stand back and try to stay hidden from its sight. The monster snarled and groaned whilst it made its slow path to an entry way in the floor.

"This must be a secret entrance to their nest." Sebastian climbed down into the darkness, his tail coat rose above his head like a cape as he fell closer and closer to the pitch black ground.

Ciel listened closely for the sound of his turn to arrive, but his mind kept trailing off. He seemed to have a terribly hard time trying to control his thoughts which rarely happens to him. Usually, he focuses on his work and only his work. It's all because of Maddison… all because of that beautiful face and voice, the two together create an addictive video which he replays over and over in his mind. Never would he believe to be obsessed with just a simple girl, it made him feel odd. Maybe… he was under a sort of spell? All sorts of negative thoughts started rushing through his brain once he focused harder on her. What if they never save her? What if it doesn't work?

What if I'm going INSANE?! Ciel asked himself in his head.

"Are you coming, or not, sir?" Sebastian question aloud to his master from all the way down the pit.

Ciel could feel his skin twitching and slithering like a snake. He slowly touched his ear to his shoulder, smiled brightly and said, "It's midnight, Sebastian."
