AN: Thank you for your reviews I'm glad that you're enjoying it so far!
Ciel stood straight and tall before those who surrounded him withdrawing his claws and putting on the air of the Queens former watchdog. He observed them taking them in analyzing their moves and the way they spoke. These demons reminded him of Azzurro Vanel and the rest of his italian mafia, all seemingly intimidating but really just idiots with nothing on the mind but money and power.
It was an interesting development. Ciel had once held Demons above humans as the superior race, but after having been in hell for a time he had found that the human world and the demon world were not much different. Demons were stronger and perhaps the more noble demons held more respect, but these demons who wallowed in the mud had more humanity in them than Ciel had while he was human.
"Pathetic" He regarded them as one would a rat.
"What did you say?"
"I have question for you" He continued ignoring the question with a wave of his hand. "When you sell me. Who gets the reward?" He tilted his head smiling. It was a childs play diversion but Ciel wasn't going to waste his time on anything more elaborate for such lowly demons.
True to Ciel's thought the demons began to argue among themselves. It was only too easy for Ciel to slip away with his eye patch. He tied the string back as best he could. the knot was sloppy but it would hold. Ciel could only imagine Sebastian's mothering, for lack of a better word, over it teasing him on how he needed to learn how to properly dress himself.
He walked through the darkening streets the cold night freezing over. Everything in Hell was to the extreme's. Extreme heat during the day and Extreme cold at night. Ciel's demon body didn't feel the change he always felt just pleasantly warm.
The rest of Ciel's demon powers if he had any were not something he could control easily. He was supposed to have super speed, fast healing, strength. But Ciel was near hopeless when it came to them. He felt mostly human.
He even got tired at night. Which was a problem for a demon with no home. He couldn't just sleep anywhere there were bound to be plenty of demons like the ones he just evaded and the less he had to deal with them the better.
Ciel yawned looking around for someplace safe to sleep.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~LINEBREAK~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Sebastian sat in a small study hands folded. He had quite a bit to get caught up on after his 7 year absence. Leviathan had told him that she had been taking care of things for him but that was not a reassurance. She had probably caused him more trouble than anything else and because it was her she most likely knew it and reveled in it.
And then there was the matter of Claude's death and Ciel. he knew Lucifer was right Claude was no gutter rat he had power and allies. Ironic that most of them would come for revenge to face the demon who stood for revenge. He was not to worried though it would turn out to be quite tedious.
And Ciel he had tried not to think of his little master but halfway through dinner his contract had burned slightly. It was gone within second but it had picked up that Ciel was in danger. He pulled off his glove and traced the mark of the contract. On earth he would have been able to find his lord anywhere, but again hell was different, the contract though still in tact was not as it used to be.
Sebastian had nothing to go on either as far as he knew Ciel was the first demon made in such a way. It was hard to say what kind of demon Ciel would be if he would retain human attributes or not. If he would ever have a true demonic form. There were no assurances just more questions and for once Sebastian did not hold all the cards.
