Happy holidays everyone. Let us continue on with a spider's misery.

The streets of London were very, very, VERY quiet. It was the - Call 911 because Michael Myers is chasing me - type of quiet. Not a single human soul was seen in the dead of night, but these two particular souls aren't exactly human. Finally exiting the alley and entering the regular streets of London comes The Undertaker and the creature known as Sebastian. The walk to the mortician's shop is a very long, silent, and slightly scary one.

The Undertaker was relieved, baffled, and cautious all at the same time. He was relieved because he just saved William's and Claude's life. That creature behind him was really set on ending both of their lives; at least that's what it looked like in Undertaker's P.O.V. In reality, the creature was only trying to kill William off. Claude would be spared. If he didn't arrive in time, that would be the end of William T. Spears.

He was baffled because he has no idea how the creature could have possibly escaped from behind the brick wall prison. It was indestructible. Nothing could have possibly destroyed such an ultimate defense. But here he is, following the retired Shinigami to his parlor. It seems the creature was more powerful than he thought. How he managed to get out of his prison is still a mystery. Perhaps he would ask him once they reach their destination.

And finally, he was cautious. The history between Undertaker and Sebastian was not a pretty one. He didn't forget their first encounter, and he's positive the creature behind him didn't either. Anything could possibly pissed the creature off, and due to him stopping the creature from killing William, he's quite sure just staring at him would set the creature on a blind rage attack. Having to fight a being of the unknown and carry 2 bodies to his shop/home isn't exactly the easiest job for anyone to do. Even if you are a legend.

Street light after street light, building after building, and alley way after alley way, the walk continued without a single word being spoken. The only sound that could be heard was two pair of shoes hitting the ground as the retired Shinigami and the creature of darkness. After walking for about 5 minutes in eerie silence, the parlor began to come into view. "My shop is just up a head." said the legendary reaper. The creature didn't reply of course. With him being angry right now, he didn't trust his words. Not to mention that his inner thoughts aren't exactly nice either.

Coming to a stop in front of the parlor, the undertaker opened the door and stepped aside to let Sebastian and his charge in. The grey haired Shinigami led the creature to the back of his shop and into a hallway. Walking down to the end of the hallway, there were 2 brown doors with silver door knobs. One door on the left of the Undertaker, and one on the right. The door to the left was the Undertaker's Quarters, which consists of one queen size bed with black and grey bed sheets and 2 white plush pillows, a window with grey curtains, a medium size brown dresser with candles on it on the right side of the room along with his bed, a book shelf on the left side of the room, and a hard wood dark brown floor. The Undertaker opened the door on his right and entered with Sebastian right behind him.

Once he closed the door, the candles light up due to a demonic presence, giving the creature a good view of the room and its details even though he can see clearly in the dark. This room consists of 2 twin size beds (Kind of like the one's you'd see in an infirmary/Medical wing/Hospital, except it doesn't have metal rails.) covered in grey and white bed sheets and 2 bed plush pillows on each bed, a window with grey curtains, a medium size brown dresser with 2 candles on it on the right side of the room, a wooden bookshelf right next to the dresser, 2 chairs, and a hard wood floor.

"I assume this is a guest room." said the creature. It wasn't a question; it was more like a statement. "Yes. Although I rarely get those these days, being a mortician and all. Even the reapers from HQ are scared to come by." He said with a small grin on his face, almost laughing. It is kind of funny, seeing your own race scared of you. But now isn't the time to laugh. The creature grunted in reply. The Undertaker laid the unconscious Shinigami down on the bed closer to the door while Sebastian laid the unconscious demon down the bed closer to the window. The Undertaker turned towards the dresser and walked to it. Opening the top drawer, he took out 2 rolls of gauze and placed them on top of the dresser. Walking to the door, he opened it obviously leaving for a moment to get other supplies to help advance the two injured brothers healing process.

At the door, he turned towards the creature of darkness. "Can I trust you not to kill William while I'm out to get a bowl of warm water?" he asked. "Perhaps you can. Perhaps you can't. I am a being of darkness after all." The creature replied. "Is that a yes or no?" "I guess we'll have to find out eventually, now won't we." The grey haired reaper stood there for a moment looking in the creatures eyes to see if he should take the creature with him to keep an eye on him or if he can actual leave him by himself. The creature's eyes were on guard and the Shinigami couldn't find anything within the slightly glowing crimson irises. So, deciding to trust the creature, he left to go get a bowl of warm water. Besides, the creature knows how Sebastian would feel if he were to know his brothers are dead. Everything should be just fine. Trusting the creature to not kill someone who has been harming Sebastian was the right choice. 'I hope for William's and Claude's sake it was.' he thought. Going inside his room, he went over to another door that looked exactly like the other two and opened it, revealing a bathroom that has a tub, a shower head, a sink (face bowl?) with two wooden cabinets attached right under it, a mirror above the sink, and a towel rack with two black towels on it. He walked over to the sink and opened the left cabinet, grabbing 2 bowls and 4 folded clean white wash rags. He turned on the hot water and filled both bowls up with said water. Putting the 4 rags on his arm, he carried the 2 bowls of warm water back to the guest room, silently hoping that when he returned there won't be limbs and organs all over the place. He loves making coffins. It was one of his natural talents and might even be a hobby of his, but not at this time of night. Anyone who would make a coffin at 3:35 in the morning is obviously crazy. But, then again…

The Undertaker himself is crazy.

Upon re-entering the room, with relief he realized that the creature had not harmed William or Claude any more than he did in the alley. In fact, he was sitting in one of the chairs that were closer to Claude's bed. "It is refreshing to know that I can trust you." He said as walked over to the creature, giving him one of the bowls he was carrying. "I wish I could say the same for you, Legendary Reaper." The creature replied, accepting the offered bowl of water and rags. It's quite obvious what the Shinigami wants him to do. He took off his white gloves and began to clean and bandage Claude as Undertaker did the same for William.

After cleaning the wounds and bandaging them, they sat in silence. Bowls and rags cleared away as the two sat there. 'Now would be the time to get some questions answered.' thought the Undertaker as he decided to break the silence. "How did you escape the confines of your prison?" he asked, catching the creature's attention, who was staring out the window. "Hmph. Wouldn't you like to know… and so would I." The last part of the creature's statement made the Undertaker perked up. "You don't know?" The creature simply shook his head "I'm sorry to say, but my guess is as good as yours Undertaker." he said with a slight frown edging its way onto his handsome face. "However, what I don't understand is why you're asking me when it was you who created said prison." He spoke while turning around to see the Undertaker. "Elaborate." The silver haired reaper sighed, but decided to answer him anyway. It's not like he has anything to loose anyhow. "Eternal Prison, which was actually named Eternal seal before it was changed. Originally made as a seal for punishment. It was created to take away any demonic powers from demons that dare enter the Shinigami Realm or shinigami powers from reapers that dare to go rouge until further notice by the higher ups. However, when it became known that you can also seal away entire beings inside of it, it became a prison instead of a seal. The prison that you were forced to reside in was very indestructible. No power, supernatural being or weapon of any sort could break it. It had no exit in sight and yet here is the proof, sitting in front me, saying that there is an exit." he said, still wondering how he escaped such a place with no exit. How the prison/seal was created is still a mystery, even to the legendary Undertaker.

The room was silent for a while again. Neither willing to speak, nor liking the uncomfortable silence. It made the tension in the room suffocating both reaper and dark creature. You can almost say its torture. Four minutes passed before Sebastian decided to share a thing of words. "Care to answer a question of my own?" he asked. The Undertaker raised an eyebrow at him. He kind of expected the behavioral pattern from this being of darkness to be destructive, chaotic, wild, demonic, and… dark. But so far to his surprise, the creature before hasn't acted that way. In fact, the creature seems more protective and serious than anything else. It intrigued him beyond this planet why this being is this way. Perhaps what he was taught about being of the dark isn't all true.

Maybe that only goes for some, and not for all.

"What question are you going to ask?" he answered with a question. Usually, if anyone wanted answers from him, the price would be a joke that was comical enough to make him go into a fit of laughter. However, this is a serious moment. There are rarely any scenarios that the forever laughing Shinigami would consider serious. "Why did you put me into that prison you spoke of?" he asked with a stoic face. But his eyes narrowed slightly, signaling that he was too happy about something. Once again, the reaper was taken by surprise. The question is quite normal in itself, but that isn't what really what got to him. You see, the creature knows why he was locked away. 'Why is he asking me this? Perhaps he has forgotten over time.' He thought, but highly doubted that. "You were locked away because of your deed. You may not remember, but when Sebastian was 13 years old, you killed the children who were in his class." he said. "There was no need for retelling me something I did many years ago. I already know of it." spoke the creature, feeling as if he was being mocked. "Then why did you ask if you knew of the answer?" Now things just weren't making since. He already knew the answer and yet he asked anyway. Does he not realize what he did was rather odd? "Because I desired to know why you punished me for giving what the children had coming." One set of green and yellow tinted eyes and one set of crimson blood eyes narrowed in challenge.

The argument starts in

Now.

"What you did was highly unforgivable in my and the higher up's eyes." Said the silver headed man. "The actions the children committed against Sebastian were highly unforgivable in my eyes." said the creature. "They were children in 7th grade. They did not deserve such cruel acts especially at a young age." "You make them sound as if they were innocent. Perhaps you have forgotten what they did. Because if I recall correctly, they're actions towards Sebastian were anything but innocent." "And what you did was innocent?!" "I never said it was. If anything I consider my actions to be in a form of justice for Sebastian." "Murdering 26 children for the sake of one boy is not a show of justification. It is a show of madness and obsession over a child who could not defend himself." The tension was becoming heated. Each becoming angry with the other. Undertaker is angry because the creature before thinks that his actions were a form of justice for one child. Sebastian was pissed because thinks he shouldn't have stopped the children from harming his son. "I murdered them because they would not stop unless they were forced to!" "Well if Sebastian wanted them to stop, why not try a saner tactic?!" "You don't think he has tried! Telling the teacher was futile, for he was either ignored or yelled at for being too close, as if he was some sort of disease! Telling his parents was useless, for he would be beaten for complaining, calling him ungrateful for what they did for him! His brothers wanted nothing to do with him and any grown adult nearby would have simply laughed! How dare you call my affection for a child, who is love deprived, a show of madness and obsession?! I love Sebastian as my own son. And because I decided to protect my son from the torture of those children, who were physically and mentally abusing him 5 days a week, I am suddenly considered insane in the eyes of the shinigami?! Then you and the higher up's are insane for even thinking I would simply sit there and watch as his cries turn into screams!"

The Undertaker was quiet for a moment. He knew Sebastian was being bullied and that was all he knew of him. He didn't know that his parents were abusive. He didn't know the extent of his bullying. He did not know Sebastian ignored and unloved by his brothers. He did not know…

of Sebastian's tortured life.

The creature took deep breaths to calm himself down. He felt the burning desire to unleash his wrath upon the dumbstruck shinigami before him, clawing and tearing at him from the inside to be released on that shinigami who dare to side with those humans. Sebastian was the true victim here, but no one sees it. And it angers him greatly when that happens. But getting violent with someone who is blind to the truth is not going to help anything. It would not change the past and it would not make Sebastian happy. In fact it would probably make him feel more depressed than he already is. He honestly couldn't see how Sebastian lasted that long without being violent. It's as if the people around him are asking to be harmed. Taking a few more breaths and calming down somewhat, he spoke again. "You wouldn't understand what was happening to him…" he paused, confirming his decision to share this bit of information. "and you wouldn't understand what was happening to me."

The Undertaker felt as if he just betrayed a dear friend of his. He didn't consider Sebastian's side of the story nor the creatures. He only saw the massacre and 26 dead bodies. He dismissed the reason why the creature committed his crimes as stupid and insane. But now that he sees that Sebastian was in harm's way, he understands. Sebastian tried doing it the correct way, but the children wouldn't stop. The creature had no choice but to stop them himself, permanently. Hearing the creature say that he wouldn't understand made him want to prove that he could.

"I may not know nor understand at the moment, for I am not you or him. But if you explain things to me, then perhaps… I can." he said. Now that the Undertaker was willing to, it was made much easier for the creature to open up to him.

"Sebastian believed that by words alone, he could get those around him to stop being so violent towards him. He thought that becoming violent against them would only make matters worse. To accept him as he was. To accept him as a normal being. To accept him as a human." He said. "But the more he tried, the more he failed. Eventually, his hopes of obtaining at least one friend was lost forever. I was the only being he had left."

"What about his brothers?" The Undertaker questioned as he looked over at the sleeping bodies of William and Claude. "They had to have some sort of affection towards him during their human years." The creature shook his while looking away, somewhat disappointed. "Unfortunately, during their human years, they despised Sebastian just as much as their parent and the rest of the town. They would also physically harm him. Hearing him screaming and begging for them to stop made me want to torture them slowly until they were driven towards insanity and begged for death to take them. I hated when he screamed or cried. I couldn't do anything about it until everyone has fallen asleep. But Sebastian loved them all the same. No matter what they did to him, his undying love for them was immortal. As long as I could comfort him, I could deal with it. But then you imprisoned me, forcing me to abandon him when he needed me. I couldn't find a way out. Every day when he was tortured I could hear it, I could feel his emotional pain, and I could see it. I couldn't get to him. His screams tore me from the inside out. Every night he would wait for me to come to him, and I couldn't get there because of my imprisonment. He thought I abandoned him for Christ sakes! My screams for him were futile, he could not hear me. I cared for him more than anything." He finished. The pain of seeing and hearing his son in torment was too much.

"I know this may not mean anything to you. But I apologize for my actions. Not only did I cause Sebastian more pain, but I caused you pain as well without even thinking of what would happen. I am truly sorry. I ask of your forgiveness." Said the reaper looking directly at him with sincere in each and every word he spoke. "You were forgiven a long time ago." Spoke the creature, which shocked the reaper. He expected him to wait a while before giving him forgiveness. Sebastian saw the look of pure shock on the retired reaper's face and said "being around Sebastian has taught me to forgive others as you would want to be forgiven." He said with a slight smile. It was a small one but sincere nonetheless. In return, it made the Undertaker grin a little. Realizing that time has gone by without him noticing, he decided it is high time they retired for bed. "Now that the past is settled, it is time for us to catch a lot of sleep. I'm quite sure it is 4 in the morning." The creature thought about it and decided to take the offer. Besides, he needs to check on Sebastian anyway. "I suppose your right." he said as he and the reaper both stood and exit out the door, leaving the 2 brothers of the raven demon to sleep peacefully.

Once in the hallway, the Undertaker gestured to the door that was in front of them. "You will be sleeping in here for tonight." he said, which confused the creature before him. "Where will you sleep?" he asked in pure curiosity. "I tend to sleep one of my nicely made coffins." He said rather happily. He wanted to question why he would sleep in a coffin instead of a bed, but decided against it. Something's are just not to be questioned. They bid goodnight to each other and went separate ways. Sebastian entered the room, took off his shoes, tail coat, vest, tie, and shirt revealing his muscular body that could rival Claude's physic if not better. Once settled in the bed and under the covers, he began to think on the current events of what just happened. Telling the Undertaker what was really going on was a good decision and maybe it could start a lovely friendship. But right now, he needs to check on Sebastian. Nodding silently, he closed his eyes and quickly lost conscious. Entering his mind, he began to go to the raven.

The Undertaker was in one of his coffins that were lying on the floor. Today was a rather tiring day and he needed rest. He has to check on Sebastian's brothers in the morning. Speaking of brothers, he is not too happy with what he heard. He was very disappointed in hearing about the way they treated Sebastian when they were younger. One would say he was pissed. He would punch them both for their acts but right now sleep was calling him. But do not fret.

In the morning, he's going to have one serious talk with them. It's going to be a talk they'd never forget.

I AM SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO SOOOOOOOOORRRRRRRRRRRRRYYYYYYYYYY! I have been putting this off for a while now. A while too long. Please forgive me. I'll try not to do that again, I swear!

Alright! As you can see the Undertaker and Sebastian have made up and seem to be growing a Friendly relationship.

Next Chapter, we're finally going to see how and where Sebastian is. The Undertaker confronts the boys but mostly William about their past actions towards the raven, and some more talk war and gathering of alliances. What will happen next?

Okay, so I was reading this fanfiction called Sebastian's birthday disaster pt1 and it was very fun to read. I wish for you guys to read it as well and enjoy it too. The story was made by Superwholock1. I loved the story! Alright I'll catch you guys really soon.
