AN: I got all the demons names and what they stood for Pride, Lust, Murder etc... from the works of Sebastian Michaelis.

FUN FACT: He was the author of one of the first recorded demonology books. Dealing with hierarchy's and such.

Sebastian stepped into the grand Manor almost a castle, the details were exquisite. everything from the molding to the decorations screamed royalty all in colors of midnight blue and Ox blood red trimmed in black. Lucifer's Castle.

He was dressed in fine clothes all black of course. It felt odd being out of his butler uniform. Although he still wore the gloves to hide the Mark of a contract that still glowed dully to signify that it was still intact.

Despite not wanting to socialize with his family Sebastian was looking forward to dinner. The food served would have been imbued with human souls. Nothing special like Ciel's but it would be good enough and quench his hunger after his 7 year fast.

He entered the room looking around at his brothers.

The eldest; Beelzebub, was at the right of his father he and Lucifer were talking or more like friendly arguing and his brother was not giving his father an inch his pride was higher than any.

Next the twins, Leviathan and Asmodeus, Leviathan his sister whom had came to him earlier waved merrily she dressed in her lecherous fashion as did his brother Asmodeus. Both were demons of lust and they flaunted it for all demons and humans men or women.

Berith, the fourth, was dressed in blood red, looking sinister balancing a knife between his fingers. His specialty was murder and he was the most unpredictable of the bunch you never knew if he was going to greet you or try and slit your throat.

Astaroth was half asleep with one eye open his dark boots propped up on the table as he louged Forever the laziest demon he rarely made long standing contracts in which work was required.

The fifth brother, Verrine, was tapping his foot and staring out the window with unrest. He tempted those to impatience and quick decisions.

Gressil was closest to him and farther down the table across from Verrine. He was the only one wearing white which was quite a laugh as he was the demon of impurity. He had a silver tongue and could tempt even the most religious man into sin.

And last of them all was Sebastian himself. His true name was Sonneillon. He bowed to his father shortly before sitting down at the end of the table. He was most known as the demon of hate and revenge.

Lucifer stood "Welcome home Sonneillon, you have been gone for quite some time."

"Was the soul worth it" Astaroth half yawned. Sebastian didn't answer his red eyes growing dark and cold.

"It was interesting to say the least" he bit out trying not to sound so irate though his brothers would likely just chalk it up to his personality.

"There's been rumors of a death. The spider demon,Pythius." Sebastian bristled at the remembrance of 'Claude'. "Its being investigated now"

"He was one of the high class demons under my rule" Beelzebub stated dryly "I never liked him myself but I can assure you it wasn't me he was on earth if I remember correctly and I always do"

"I killed him" Sebastian stated bluntly he after all had nothing to hide not where that worthless demon was concerned. His siblings stared and Berith clapped him on the back proudly.

"Why?" his sister asked. She was closer to Sonneillon than most and despite his penchant for hate and revenge he was very mild mannered. Until one managed to anger him that is; Leviathan had done so only once and had nearly been killed during Sonneillon's rage.

"He took something of mine twice so I ran him through with a demons sword. I need no other reason" He stated calmly as though talking about tea instead of murder.

Gressil laughed loudly "One day brother you'll find someone who can control that temper" Ciel flashed through Sebastian's mind but he pushed the image away. It was not the time to be thinking of his young master or the danger he could be in.

"Like someone controls you Gressil" Gressil's grin turned to a scowl and Sebastian smirked the others laughed.

Half of Sebastian's brothers were married. It was a falsity when humans believe demons can not love. It is rare and most demons will never find it but it is possible. His eldest brother had a Husband, though Sebastian had no idea how the man put up with Beelzebub. Astaroth and Verrine were also married.

Before more conversation could be had the meal was served. The Souls were less appetizing than Sebastian had imagined starving or not. Ciel's soul had spoiled him he had smelled and tasted it in his master's blood. A soul unlike any he had seen; it was as dark as Sebastian's own heart but pure as heaven. such an unlikely combination and something that only his young master would have. He was full of such surprises And always challenging his expectations.

Sebastian's father, Lucifer, stopped him before he left.

"You should watch yourself; just because you're brother didn't like Pythius that doesn't mean he doesn't have allies."

Sebastian smiled "Let them try"

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~LINEBREAK~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Ciel growled. There were so many of them. His eye patch was clutched in one of the deomns hands his mark glowing brightly.

"Such a pretty eye, so unique" One of the demons said sickeningly sweet

"He'll fetch a pretty price" Another added. Ciel hissed his black nails growing longer. he had yet to discover his true demon form but he would not let these disgusting low life's touch him. After all he was not called master of games for nothing.

AN:CLIFFHANGER! XD
