HARRY POV
A birthday party that went so wrong. The day had started so wonderful. The twins running around the mansion greeting everyone. Sneaking into the kitchen, punishing the dumb dog for hurting little Niall, some chess, and a nap. Then horror struck at six' o'clock, the time of dinner. Ciel had left to investigate. Niall was so scared, but I tried to calm him. Unfortunately nothing I did worked. Eventually Niall also left the bedroom, and I stayed by his side.
We wondered around the halls, and had found Sebastian (the dumb dog). When than followed the dog when he ran off... avoiding the dead body around the corner. It had taken me a moment to realize that Death had come to collect on those in the house. Unfortunately I didn't realize what was happening till late. Niall had found his parents' bodies at the moment I came to my realization. I ran after the young boy. When we found Tanka, a chill went through me. I pushed my magic with a plea to save my ward... and I passed out. How I got outside was a mystery to me. I had awakened in Ciel's fiancé's arms. The poor girl crying in front of the burning building. The source of my nightmares now a days...
Both Elizabeth and Lady Red have tried to take my off the Phantomhive property, from the burned remains of a house. I refused to moved. I sat and waited. What I waited for was unknown. It could have been Death for all I cared. After two weeks, the two gave up and just kept me company when they could. Talking and crying as I listened. Thinking on my own times with Niall. Watching over Niall when he was sick, and Ciel took care of his younger brother. Laying on the window seal next to Niall as he watched Ciel and Elizabeth playing outside. Resting at Niall's feet as both he and Ciel studied. And all the field trips and activities the family took. All the good times... Past and gone, now full of sorrow.
It was then I thought back on my past in the Wizardry World. It had been a few weeks after I had defeated the Dark Lord Voldemort. The public had come to fear the man who defeated the Dark Lord. Had come to think I was a treat to the Wizardry World. Especially when they were told there was a possibly I may be immortal. I was immediately put on trial for becoming a threat to the Wizardry World, without any proof. Ron and Hermione had become witness, stating how the Deathly Hallows had made me the Master of Death and therefore immortal. They also went on how they needed to rid the world of me, or to lock me away in some way.
I fought, pleaded, begged for them to understand. That the stories couldn't be possibly true, that the Master of Death idea was a myth. Unfortunately with that statement, the people decided to put it to the test. After all I had survived two killing curses from the Dark Lord, why not see if The-Boy-Who-Lived was actually immortal. They killed me in any way they could think of... both magical and non-magical. In the end I was found to be immortal, the Master of Death. So in the end it was decided I had to be imprisoned.
The question than asked was how to imprison me. They wanted nothing to do with me, but didn't want me to cause trouble. It was Hermione who came up with the idea to trap me in my animagi form, but I was an animagi. I hadn't gone through the transformation or any training. So the Unspeakables came up with a way to force the transformation into something of their choosing... or rather to a less threatening creature of the same kind. When they explained it to the public it was stated if a wizard was to be a hawk, they could instead change the species to something like a blue bird. Same type of animal, but harmless. It was the Unspeakables opinion that I was some kind of feline, and so the public stated that a small kitten would be harmless. It was then I was forced into a kitten's body. It was also the point I was thrown into the Chamber of Death. The Wizardry World had felt they rid themselves of the issue by imprisoning it in a harmless form. Now they wanted it out of sight.
I shock my head of the past and laid down in the rubble. Still waiting for Niall to come home. Hoping against hope for my ward to come back to me.
It was after two months later, in February, that my waiting ended. Niall had returned... with a demon at his side.
~Kitty~
My ear twitched, I heard the squeaky wheels of the serving cart. I yawned and stretched. It had been a year since Niall's return with the demon, Sebastian. I never left Niall's side when the demon was near my ward.
When Niall had showed I had ran at him and jumped into his arms. Purring at having my ward back in one peace. He had a hard, cruel look in his eyes, but they softened when he looked at me. It was than I noticed the demon by Niall. I growled and attacked the demon. I scratched at his face, but the damn demon moved. I landed on the ground, staying between the demon and Niall.
Niall had kneeled down and spoke. "Klein, he will not harm me. I am his Master." He stroked down my back. "I'm fine, Klein." I stopped growling, but continued to glare at the demon. When Niall continued to call for me, I looked away and climbed onto Niall's shoulders.
I jumped from the bed to the floor, walking to the door. I sat waiting for the demon to open the door. A moment later it opened and I waited for the demon to pass me, at which point I stood and followed the demon. I jumped back onto the bed as the demon woke my ward.
"Young mater, it's time to wake up now," said the demon gently.
I growled at the demon. The demon looked at me with a smile. I released a hush of air in annoyance. The demon seemed to be obsessed with cats, but knew not to touch me. After all I was building up my magic again. Just last week I was able to do a partial transformation to my human form. It seemed that I had to do the training of the animagi transformation backwards, but it was worth it. I would get my human form back, and maybe a human life. I could truly look out for my ward in the human society. I would just have to talk with the Queen of England and create an identity of high standing... I was thinking of going by Hadrian Peverell, to be another guard-dog similar to the Phantomhives, but with one difference. To have the Peverell protect the Phantomhives, since they make so many enemies as can be shown by the attack leaving a single Phantomhive alive.
I had even been able to write letters to the Queen, stating my idea. Telling her the identity I wish to create with her help. Telling her the whole truth about the Magical World and how I was from the future. I didn't tell her I was from a parallel world's future. After all there was no Wizardry World here, only magical beings such as demons, angels, and reapers. She agreed to meet, but I had said I would to have the identification before the meeting. So that I could start immediately on my investigation on the Attack on the Phantomhive family. WHile the Queen was reluctant, she agreed in the end. She even said she would have a mansion built for me.
I sighed, as I watched the demon feed and dress my ward. It irritated me to watch this creature touch my ward, but he was collared... There was nothing I could do, for this demon would eat Niall's soul in the end. Though that didn't mean I wouldn't try to stop the foul creature.
