Blackest of Nights chapter 15, Ultimate Betrayal
I was in shock, at what Bathory told me. I couldn't, take Ciel to the castle…..who knows, the sort of things that could happen? She knew Ciel was on her tale, so she was probably going to try get rid of him. I was task to protect him…..I couldn't let that happen! "No!" I shot at Bathory, who just smiled.
"Wellllll, you don't have much of a say in the matter, lol." Bathory said. "Ildi's gonna make u, or else."
"I'm sorry, Taro." Said Ildi. "Well, nut really, but you know. It sucks, but u have to do it. As ur master, I'm forcing u."
"And as the master, of ur master, I say if u don't do it, I'll eat both of ur souls out." Bathory said, happy.
I start shaking, and I could barely stand. Ildi took hand, to help balance. "I can't physically make u go back to the manor, and do anything, but I'd say u have ur hands tied behind ur back, huh? I know, I wouldn't want to get on Bathory's bad side. Besides, if u don't do what I want, you'll start to bled out, and die. And I don't want to die either, sooooooo."
"Oh, yes! What fun." Bathory was too happy. "And THEN I'll eat ur soul, and you'll be in purgatory."
I gulped, had no choice. "Fine. I guess, I have to do it…."
Ildi smiled, and clapped, before teleport me outside the castle. It was, going to start rain soon. Nobody was out, I went to the manor without interruption.
When I got there, I knock on the door. Sebastian was at the door, and he tried to close door in my face. "Wait!" I insisted, sticking my foot in the door. "You have to let me in. I have info, about Bathory. We can convict her."
Even though, he clearly wasn't gonna let me in, then Ciel showed up. "Let him in!" He said, immediately. Sebastian sighed, and opened the door to me. I went to Ciel, immediately. I was happy to see him, again, but I felt depression at the thought of what I'd have to do.
We went to his study, and Ciel told Sebastian to stay downstairs, even If that pissed him of. "What happen? Where you go?" he asked.
"Sebastian kicked me out, don't know why. But I went to castle, and found more info." I said. "Enough to get her convict. U have to come with me."
"What? Why would I need to leave?" Ciel ask.
"Because, u have to see it, to believe it." I said. "Please, come on. And we can't let Sebastian know, he would get mad."
"Right." Ciel said, nod. "Let's go, as soon as possible."
Ciel and I left, without Sebastian knowing, and went to the castle. He looked at it, intimidated. "What am I meant to see here?" he asked, getting suspicious.
Then, sudden, something dark enveloped him. It tied him up, and he disappeared. I screamed, and ran towards the castle. When I opened the door, Ildi was there. "You did it!" Ildi said happy. "Now Elizabeth's reign can last forever. She will never die."
"What?" I ask.
"Ciel was the only person, who ever came close to catch her. But now, he'll be trapped, and out of our hair." Ildi said. "So now, she will never get caught. She can kill, forever!"
"No! I didn't want that!" I shout. I tried to push past Ildi, but there was pain in my stomach. I started to bleed.
"U can't hurt me, Taro." Ildi said. "It's useless."
"I have to try!" My eyes start glow, and before I knew it, I was using my powers. Ribbons came from my hands, when I put them out, and they wrapped Ildi up and tossed her back. Then, I was in the castle. I looked up, saw all the floors from the bottom…Elizabeth's room was on the top, so I would have to climb every floor to get there. And who knew, what kind of scary stuff could be in the castle…
I went up to the fourth floor before the ground start to rumble. I looked round. The sky, turn red. I was confuse, until I sudden was thrown at wall by nothing. My stomach start bleed, and I cried out. I looked, and almost heart attack. Sebastian was there, looking super pissed. I was choking.
"How dare you….." he said. "I knew you were trouble, from the start. I have to end this."
He seemed happy, about it, then he threw a knife. I was surprise, but I caught it at the last second. "You can't kill me, I have to save him!" I shouted. It turned red, and it flew back to him, and cut his face a bit.
He was surprise. "You little bitch." He growled. I upset him bad. "Using the powers I gave you, to fight me, and hurt my young master. How could you…."
"Please leave me alone! I didn't want to hurt him!" I cried. I tried to run, but the door to the next floor swung shut and locked. It was obvious, Sebastian wanted to fight me.
"Now I'll kill u, and end this miserable story you've been crafting, once and for all." Sebastian said. Then he made more knives, ran at me, and slashed. A magic shield came up, to protect me, and I used the time to use my powers, to blow him away. He was blast into a wall, and it left a big indention. He wiped of blood, from his cheek.
He suddenly looked up, like he heard something. "Now…is not the time. I need to go." He decided. "I will let Ildi betray you first so you will lose her power. Then, you will be weak enough for me to kill….if ur not already dead by that point."
He left, but I noticed my wound bleed more. I clenched it and groaned. I didn't have much time, and I knew Sebastian was probably right about Ildi wanting to betray me. So I ran up another floor only to see another face I didn't want to see. It was James.
"Taro! I expected u." He said. "I know what u did, back then, with Teruko. And, I know ur spending time, with my old gf. It's almost like, you want me to fuck u over."
"Shut up! Let me get by!" I said, even though I was scared.
"Even if your still stupid Taro, it's so hot knowing u were Teruko." James said, and he licked his lips. "Remember the fun we had? That was great…..let's get back to things."
