OH NO! I've caught up with the manga! Oh well, you'll all just have to wait after this chapter until the next chapter of the manga decides to come out. Anyway, read and review!
Hellebore had gone to the Scarlet Fox stables out of curiosity, she had only ever seen an elephant once before, and that elephant had not lasted extremely long against the large gun her master had propped on his shoulder. But in Hellebore's defense she didn't know that elephants were afraid of snakes.
She also didn't know that the young prince would decide to visit his elephant at the exact time she planned to. So when she saw the flash of his dark skin and chocolate eyes she dove quite precisely into the bush nearest to her, all at once making a split second decision to embrace the serpent fighting to be free of the constricting clothing she had been wearing since her employment. And so when Soma mounted the elephant and heard a gentle rustling, panicking was clearly the best option.
"A snake!? Here!?" He yelped clutching tighter to the elephant after having seen two green slit-like eyes peering up at him curiously. The elephant also noted those eyes and with an urgency only found in elephants, he pivoted and lumbered away quickly, straight toward the Scarlet fox dormitories. For a moment the snake in the bush was quietly contemplating the outcome of what would no doubt be extremely entertaining, and with the thought of entertainment, said snake disregarded the clothes it had left tangled in the branches of the bush.
If one looked closely enough at the snake they would see a strange glowing purple tattoo on its back.

"What are they doing here? I thought they weren't allowed?" Soma accused childishly pointing at Hellebore and Sebastian in an accusatory manner. Ciel glanced at the demons before looking back at Soma. "I had no choice," he said shrugging, "and anyway Hellebore hides all day long so it's not like I'm breaking any rules." Soma pouted but stopped when Sebastian leaned forward menacingly a sadistically perfect smile on his lips.
"I ask that you keep the fact that I am the young master's butler a secret, or else I shall have too-" Sebastian began but was quickly cut off by a rather flustered Soma.
"I won't tell anyone!" He cried hands waving frantically. Ciel ignored his actions and instead turned his body towards Soma.
"Did you find anything out?" Ciel asked attempting to actually proceed forward in the conversation. Soma seemed a bit confused for a moment before brightening. "Oh yes! At night he secretly sends flower-shaped cards to students in his dormitory. Lots of them." Hellebore leaned down to Ciel's ear.
"Must be shy." She whispered. Ciel looked at her in annoyance.
"Shut up."
Soma, having not noticed their silent bickering continued. "Also, he…"

It had been simple enough attaching the tense strings to the backs of the canvases, and attatching those strings to amplifying devices at the swan gazebo. Although Hellebore was continuously getting distracted by telling Sebastian to go to one end while she went to the other. Sebastian would then look at her as if she had just said the sky was purple. "If you aren't going to be of any help go and repatch the notes."

She could see Sebastian tense as Maurice Cole ran the scissors along Ciel's chest followed by a violent kick. Hellebore stuck her tongue out momentarily slightly annoyed that she wasn't the one doing the kicking.
"Now no one will save you!" Cole cried in what could be assumed as psychotic mania.
Maurice dragged the scissors downward across Ciel's stomach, almost teasingly. "Why don't you take some pictures? The kind that make you want to die from shame!" Cole put a finger to his chin as he pointed the scissors at Ciel's forhead. "Go on! Do it!"
What neither Demon nor master were ready for would have been what happened next. All the boys that were holding Ciel down moved in, ripping his clothes, tearing off his shoes and bruising his skin. One boy went so far as to slam his hand over Ciel's one good eye and mouth, muffling everything.
Ciel was able to tear his head free for a moment and cry out; "No...please stop it!"
Hellebore and Sebastian both allowed a small sadistic pleasure at the fact that their young master had pleaded so perfectly, so humanly. But the moment was ruined as three prefects and Elizabeth's older brother rushed in, undoubtedly saving the day.
"Damn it." Hellebore muttered. "I wanted to see what would happen."

"Wow…the most beautiful boy in school puts on makeup better than any female I've ever seen." Hellebore said to Sebastian as she looked once more over the stolen picture of Maurice Cole, peeling his eyelid upward so as to apply mascara.
Sebastian smirked before placing a finger to her lips. "Quiet my little Demoness, the young master is putting on a show." Sebastian whispered. Hellebore frowned momentarily before turning back to the window where the two demons were currently hanging in a bat like state, their hair still and upside down.
"I've always been against injustice." Ciel said eyes closed, face glimmering as a forced blush sprinkled against his cheeks. The Green prefect patted Ciel on the back, a smile on his face. "You follow traditions, you don't lie and you are pure and noble. A model student!"
Both Hellebore and Sebastian looked incredulously through the window.
"Is our young master completely seriously?"
Short chapter I know.
