A boy sat in a corner of the schoolyard reading under a shady tree. The boy had short, straight black hair that had a strange sort of blue tint to it, but his most distinguishing feature had to be his eyepatch covering his right eye. No one knew why the boy had to wear the eyepatch. They didn't know if it was an injury or a fashion choice. When asked, he would simply say, "An accident".
"An accident." This was true, as he did not intend to summon a devil all those many years ago. He had this contract etched into his eye for the very purpose of survival, and for revenge.
But that was years ago. Now, the small boy was a sort of "demon king." He tamed not one, but two demons, and became one himself. Together they roam the earth consuming souls for all eternity.
Yes, this mysterious boy at the edge of the schoolyard with a seemingly otherworldly air wasn't what he seemed. The boy's name is Ciel Phantomhive, and he is a demon.
And as a creature such as this, the boy is able to be summoned and can grant wishes in exchange for the summoner's immortal soul. Fortunately, in a city as large as london, there where plenty people in peril, and he need not answer often. But today, the summoner was close. On campus, even, in the library, to be exact.
If his memory was correct, his friend was in the library today. Alois had to sort books today as punishment for disrupting class one time too many. Ciel knew that his blonde companion, being a new demon, was certain to answer the call.
Alois Trancy became a demon by being summoned back to the mortal plane from Limbo, and had never devoured a soul before. He cannot become a full-fledged demon before doing this, and it was certain that after feeling the summon, that his instincts would kick in and he would enter a contract.
The boy at the edge of the yard had mixed feelings about this. He was happy that the his friend was going to obtain full demonhood, but he also felt a sort of negative feeling that his friend was going to enter a contract.
Jealousy? Hardly. Ciel Phantomhive does not feel jealousy. Regardless, he chose to vacate his precious reading spot to investigate.
Ciel walked to the school library, made sure that no one was looking, and jumped to the second-story window of the building. Warwick private school had a massive library, however it was almost always vacant of people.
Through that second-story window he was ever so carefully perched on, he could see the summoner, a girl that looked slightly older than he appeared to be. She had on the standard Warwick uniform on, with a black tie and matching stockings. The girl had dark circles under her eyes, from either lack of sleep or crying. She looked pitiful. The slate-haired demon was hoping his friend would get a soul that wasn't so pathetic.
His eyes scanned the inside of the building, and saw his blonde compliment round the corner and lean against the bookshelf the girl was hiding behind. As a feind, Ciel could easily hear their conversation quite clearly.
"You called?" the blonde said with a smirk, peering down at the girl who had summoned him sitting on the floor.
"N-no! I was just..." the weak-looking girl stood up, attempting to hide her summoning circle.
"Summoning a demon? I know, and here I am. What is so troublesome that you required the aide of someone so sinister?"
The girl looked at the odd blonde boy before her. "You? You're a demon?"
"Duh. Out with it, already!" he said, his eyes glowing crimson, "I don't have all day!"
Startled, the meek girl stood there to take in what this boy was saying. Hesitantly, she told the boy why she required a demon. "I-I... need someone dead."
"Really? Who?"
"My father."
The young demon blinked at this wish. It sounded familiar. "That's a heavy request, and having any wish granted by me comes with a heavy price. Still, I will grant it. But in return, I will devour your immortal soul. While the fact that this meeting occurred will never be erased, it's still not too late to turn back." Alois smiled, "So, what will it be?"
The girl thought about this for awhile. A soul is a valuable thing, after all. Nevertheless, she made her decision quickly. "Deal."
"Like a professional." thought the demon in the window. Surely this would be interesting. It would most likely be breif since merely killing someone isn't that difficult. "This is for the best. It would be annoying if he where bonded to that stupid girl for very long."
And so it begins...
A/N: What a weird development. This was an idea that came to me after I wrote about Alois not being a "full-fledged demon." This probably will only take one or two chapters. Don't worry, the chick isn't going to be some annoying "Mary-Sue" type character. I won't use her again after I finish this little bit. She will be replaced with fluff and comedy. I miss comedy. I seriously need to think of some more jokes. We seem to be lacking in the comedy department, lately...
Is Ciel jelly? He's totally jelly...
