Sebastian watched the automobiles for a few moments from atop the train. They had three cars and a large covered truck, no doubt where the children were being kept. They were moving slow since the roads were so curving and Sebastian saw an opportunity spot to intercept them. With flawless agility he jumped down from the train car and ran with incredible speed towards the spot, a cliff with a sheer drop into the North Sea.
Sebastian ran through fields of sheep, jumping over some that wandered into his path more than once. They baaed at him as he ran by. Still visible from the train, the onlookers gawked in amazement as the trail of dust cut through the large herd of sheep, splitting the herd in two straight through the middle.
Like he predicted, the first car passed the spot. He had seconds before the truck would pass it, and as he added a little more speed he saw the top of the truck. With split-second timing, as the road below the cliff leveled with the land, Sebastian jumped up and drove his feet into the passenger-side window. The force of the impact sent both the stunned passenger, the driver and the driver's door down into the North Sea.
Sebastian jerked the steering wheel back left before they drove off the cliff, and the crying in the back confirmed he had the children. Now it was only a matter of getting them back.
The front and both back cars finally came out of their shock from seeing their two partners fly out of the truck, and were now closing in on him. Sebastian grunted as the back car rammed into the truck, though it had little effect. They were in small cars, and Sebastian had a large truck. Grinning evilly as he stared at the front car's rear-view mirror, his eyes turned demonic. His foot pressed on the accelerator, sending dark smoke bellowing out the truck's exhaust to get their attention.
The driver was too focused on the butler's eyes that he slowly started to veer off of the road. The splash that followed finally sent the message, and the rear cars backed off.
As Sebastian steered the truck onto the dirt road, all the train's passengers were standing huddled together in one spot being questioned by the police. All but one, standing alone off to the side. The young master was staring angrily up at a police officer, and only glanced at the truck as Sebastian parked it by the police carriages.
Ciel's more angry than normal expression concerned the butler greatly. The Earl has never shown much respect for London's police force, but they knew they could do nothing about him. These were not London police officers, however, but Edinburgh police. They could do something about him.
Sebastian got out of the truck as Ciel made a pointing gesture towards him. The officer put a hand firmly on the Earl's shoulder as they started walking towards him, and Sebastian bristled with anger. Ciel batted the hand away, but the police officer did not take it lightly.
"Unhand me!" Ciel yelled as he was arrested. "Sebastian!"
The butler took three steps until he was surrounded by police, some with guns pointed at him. He watched helplessly as the Earl was handcuffed and dragged into a police carriage. Sebastian was cuffed as well, and put in the same carriage with the young, and rather angry, master.
