Chapter Seven: Confrontation
Alois' eyes were all teary and he finally found somebody who acknowledged him, somebody who wasn't just using him. Caleb actually considered Alois to be just like Caleb, and now they were both the same, demons with a troubled past. He wanted to start sobbing, but he felt butterflies in his stomach and instead he felt heat rush to his face and smiled at his new brother with an expression of content and he saw Caleb blush then try to hide his expression.
"Keep your guard up." He said and turned his head from Alois to look around in the dense forest.
Crack!
Alois heard it and turned his head first and laughed as he found himself staring at the head of a deer, wearing a tailcoat and fancy attire. "Sebastian… what's with the new look?"
"I am simply, one hell of a deer." He answered in reply to Alois.
I wish he was my butler instead of Ciel's… Claude was too cold and never displayed any emotion whatsoever, and Caleb thought Claude would've killed me.
Alois laughed, and Caleb held a hand up for him to stop.
Fearing for my safety? Or…
Caleb waited for Sebastian to answer Alois' first question a little more seriously. "Yes, this deer head is quite stuffy, but it is the master's order, he told me to stay out of sight and that he never wants to see my face again, so the only way to make sure he has no proof that I was within his sight and that he doesn't see my face… I have worn this." He explains and points with both index fingers at the deer head.
Caleb nodded slowly. "Now that that is set aside, let's get on the move."
"Wait a moment…" Sebastian stated and appeared behind Caleb, Alois watched, his eyes were wide with excitement.
"You wouldn't happen to have a hand in the abduction of Ciel, would you?" He asked Caleb and placed a hand on the man's shoulder. Caleb seemed to growl and turned his head, his eyes were like bonfires, emitting flames that ripped through the air around him and his face was twisted in an expression of complete and utter outrage.
"Apologies." He said to Caleb and removed his hand from the man's shoulder; whose expression became indifferent once again.
Caleb smiled. "Don't worry about it, and to be honest, no… I didn't." He said and laughed before walking towards the tower which lay before them.
Alois snuck up behind Caleb and poked his shoulder to test the water. No reaction. "Hey Alois." Caleb said and he laughed happily.
That's weird. He thought to himself, then Sebastian snuck up behind Alois and poked his shoulder, Alois felt his left eye twitch and he spun around and looked at Caleb with a frown, and his eyes got really hot. "WHAT THE HELL IS YOUR PROBLEM?!" Alois shouted at Sebastian who looked at Alois indifferently, but then suddenly smiled and let out an amused chuckle.
"So that's what he did to you." Sebastian said, the deer head looked almost tasty to Alois' eyes and he saw Caleb and the world around him as being completely red, the pain came into his head at full-force and knocked on the insides of his skull.
What is this?! The inexperienced demon thought to himself and gripped his head and let out a pained cry, this pain was excruciating, and it was caused by Sebastian poking him? What had he done?
"Alois, stop thinking." Caleb stated and Alois' mind instantly went blank with complete and utter obedience, why did he just obey him like that… the pain slowly began to subside and he lowered his hands from his eyes and let them fall to his sides, he was relieved that it went away. He opened his eyes again and looked back up at Sebastian. Whom wore a deer-head with black eyes and an indifferent expression.
"You see, Caleb is a wolf. And he mixed his blood with yours, so the blood that he mixed with yours expanded throughout your body, replacing your old blood, transforming into a demon and without your knowledge you started to become a clone of him, in terms of blood-line… and now you and he are blood-brothers… but he is the Alpha and will do what's best for his line of demon… he's also the boss." Sebastian explained to Alois and patted the boy on the head who was about to lash out at him, but Sebastian started stroking Alois' hair and then let his hand guide itself to the boy's cheek, Alois started to get excited and looked happily at Sebastian, he closed his eyes contently and-
STOP!
Alois' reflexes kicked in and he pulled away with a growl, Sebastian would not treat him like an obedient dog. That made Alois want to kill Sebastian again, and he hated himself for drooling slightly at the thought of the pleasure the petting of his hair brought.
"Sebastian." Caleb stated, with a forced and aggressive smile. "Get your hands off the pup or the pack will gnaw your arms off." He said and let out a brief and hate-filled chuckle.
Sebastian did not reply at first, and quite frankly; Caleb didn't care because the guy was wearing a deer-head.
"Fair, Caleb Michaelis." The Butler said with a slight grin and then looked at Alois, "Though I must inquire… why is Alois wearing the master's clothing?"
"Because of his curious and playful nature… he also likes the way Ciel smells." Caleb stated, and paused for a moment and then Sebastian nodded slightly, with an amused smirk on his face.
HOW DOES CALEB KNOW?!
"Were I not considerate of my own kind, I would consider that a repulsive gesture, but I find that Alois is nothing more than a newborn demon… and despite my growing hatred for the young earl I gather that he is now one of us and I must obey our customs…" He said and it sounded like he held a slight smirk in his voice.
Alois' left eye twitched and then they were off to the tower, charging forward at extremely high-speeds. Alois even whooped because he thought this was fun. It felt like last night when he first started to be able to move this fast… oh wait.
Now I'm gonna kill Claude because he's stupid, and deserves to die! Just like everyone else in that village…
