Chapter 2
A/N: Hey my little yaoi kittens, I'm back with the next chapter of my story. This chapter is where I begin the plot of the story because the last chapter was just talking the angel and demons life together. Well that's all I had to say and I guess I'll see you all in the next authors note.

Sebastian slept in his nest, his wings folded to his back and his tail curled around himself as his chest moved up and down slowly, but within the furthest regions of the cavern, a pair of eyes watched the sleeping demon. The figure let out a low growl and stalked over to him on all fours as their mouth curled up into a grin and he lunged at the sleeping demon, only for a thin-black-tail to wrap around their waist and sit them on the floor as Sebastian sat up and smirked at the person who had tried to pounce on him.
"Ciel, you know you can't attack me that easily," Sebastian said, smirking at the child who sat in front of him, pouting with his arms crossed. "Oh, don't be like that. Why don't you go hunting and let me finish sleeping," Sebastian yawned, as he closed his eyes and fell asleep. Ciel always wondered why the elder slept more than the average demon, but he'd ask once he got back.
Ciel opened his wings and floated to the ground, walking to the torture pits where most demons hunted. It would take a couple minutes when it came to flying, but Ciel always preferred to walk and watch the Angels across the border. He grimaced at the sight of them as the higher ranking, or archangels as Sebastian called them, patrolled the line. Each one wielding sword that could slay a demon with one slice.
"Hey Ciel!"
The blue eyed boy flinched at the sound of the voice and looked up to see and incubus with short blonde hair and sky blue eyes land beside him. "Hey Alois, shouldn't you be with Claude?" Ciel stated. He had been introduced to these two when Sebastian had taken the boy to see the border for the first time.
"Claude is dealing with the new recruits. Where's Sebastian?" Alois asked, his hands behind his back as he walked beside the blue haired boy,"he sleeping like always. Do you or Claude know why he does that so much? Demons don't need sleep," Ciel stated; Alois shrugged his shoulders,"I don't know, Claude says it's because he's the general of kings army and he has nothing to do."
"I think it's because he's lazy," Ciel said causing both of them to laugh, but it was cut short by a loud voice. Both boys turned their heads and saw what appeared to be an angel of higher ranking talking to the warriors standing guard. "I couldn't stand being an angel, there's too many rules you'd have to follow," Alois said with a roll of his eyes. "Yeah, there's also the fact that they kill millions of demons," Ciel said as he glared at them.
"That's something I agree with as well. Anyways, where are you heading to?" Alois said, changing the subject. "Sebastian sent me to collect a few souls from the torture pits," Ciel said,"I was heading there as well," Alois said as he draped an arm over his friends shoulder and smiled.
In the distance, the sound of pained screams in agony gradually grew louder as the two boys noticed the ground starting to crack and imps began to appear. The two finally reached the torture pits, a crack going through the earth that was filled with fire and the tortured cries of souls, as creatures that flew over began to drop new souls in, only to be caught and eaten by some of the imps.
Both Ciel and Alois caught a good amount of souls before the imps could pick them off. Alois held a blue wispy orb over his mouth and swallowed it whole, licking his lips as he held another in his other hand. Ciel swallowed one of the souls he caught, tasting that it was sweet. "Thanks for coming with me Alois, but I'm going to head home now before Sebastian worries," Ciel said, waving to the incubus. "Okay then, see you later Ciel," Alois said.
Ciel began walking back home, stopping to bother some of the imps from time to time and laughing when they scattered like ants. He was getting close since he could see it in the distance, but he was stopped by a young female voice.
"Excuse me, may I ask what you are doing over there? It's dangerous."
Ciel turned his head to the sound of the voice and the person gasped at the sight of Ciel's appearance. The more Ciel was raised by Sebastian, the darker his wings became and his appearance changed as well; his left eye was blood red while the right was still a beautiful shade of sapphire, his canines had grown sharper, and his nails were a dark grey.
"What are you talking about? This is my home, or have the angels started to become a little absent minded," Ciel said with a smirk as he approached the border to see a girl with long blonde hair in pigtails, emerald eyes, with pure white wings, and wearing a white dress that went down to her feet. "U-Uh, you're wings may be a little corrupted but you're not supposed to be in hell," she said with a stutter in her voice.
"I'm a demon, so how can this not be my home?" The multi-color eyed boy asked. "You're no demon. You're an angel, it's obvious that those demons have been lying to you if-" "Shut the hell up you filthy angel! There's no way that I'm being lied to by the ones who raised me when I was only an infant, now leave me alone you annoying girl," Ciel spat as he turned away, ignoring the girl who could only think over what Ciel had said.
Ciel opened his dark grey wings and flew up toward his home, and entered the cavern to be greeted by Sebastian. "Welcome back Ciel, did anything interesting happen?" The red eyed male asked as feed one of his many ravens. "I met up with Alois while I was on my way to the pits and on my way back some angel tried to tell me that I wasn't a demon. She said I was corrupted."
Sebastian's eyes widened at this,"you didn't believe them, did you Ciel?" Sebastian asked as put a hand on the boys shoulder. "I didn't. I know everything they say is a lie," Ciel said; Sebastian's eyes softened when he heard those words and gently caressed the boys cheek. "Good boy. Those filthy creatures only tell lies, and I've taught you that you can't trust them no matter what they say, right?" Ciel nodded and said," yes Sebastian."
"Good, as long as you know this, no one shall ever hurt you or steal you away from me," the red eyed male held boy close, protectively. He'd never allow anyone to take what belonged to him, and if they did, they'd meet a fate worse than death.

A/N: Well everyone, that was the next chapter of the story, if anyone is confused about the color of Ciel's wings, they're still a light grey, almost the color of cobblestone. Well, that's all I had to say and I'll see you in the next chapter, Ciao.
