Alois stood there, not knowing what he had did. He had fired the only thing that cared enough about him to take care of him. He didn't know what was going to happen. He just wanted Claude back.

"What have I done?" Alois sobbed to himself. "Claude was supposed to be mine! All mine! And now I've gone and lost him! He's gone and that damned demon girl gets him all to herself! It's not fair! She stole him away from me!" Alois continued to cry, sitting alone in his room. "I'm so lonely without Claude.." he whispered.

There was a knock on the door. "Go see who it is," Ciel commanding Sebastian, seeming bored. "Yes, my lord," replied Sebastian. He opened the door and was surprised to find a tear-stained Alois at the door. "WHAT THE BLOODY HELL IS HE DOING HERE?" cried Ciel. Alois began to cry again and collapsed to the ground at Ciel's feet. "I...I...I need your help..." he began. "Claude...Claude's all gone..I'm all alone...and..it's all my fault..." Ciel stood there, not sure what to do. Just command Sebastian to kill him, he thought. But something was causing him to feel bad for Alois.

Ciel sighed. "Fine, I'll help you," Ciel said, annoyed. Alois grabbed the side of Ciel's coat and pulled himself up. He hugged Ciel while crying into his shoulder. "Thank you," Alois said. Ciel decided to hug the Trancy boy this once, and he did. Alois cried softly in Ciel's neck. Alois didn't let go. Ciel was tired of the hugging, but didn't let go. He heard Alois's crying stop and felt his clench soften. Alois let go of Ciel but stayed close to him. "Where was the last time you saw Claude," Ciel asked, stepping back.

"I'll show you," Alois said and pulled Ciel's arm to his carriage. "Home," he said to the driver and laughed as the carriage drove off without them. Alois dragged Ciel by his arm all the way to the forest in front of Alois's home. He let go. "Here," he said as the carriage pulled up. Sebastian was behind Ciel to make sure he was okay. "I last saw him here, with that...that girl." Alois started to cry again. "He's.. he's gone," he said. "All because of me."

Alois fell to his knees again and cried harder. The lonely feeling came back inside him. He felt hurt, betrayed, and just wanted Claude back. Ciel turned away from the crying Alois at his feet. "No... Please don't leave me," Alois said, tugging at Ciel's pant leg. Ciel ignored him and said, "Sebastian this is an order." He pulled the eye patch away from his eye. Alois could see it start to glow purple. "Find Claude and bring him back!" Sebastian got on his knees and said, "Yes, my lord." Sebastian left to find a door to the demon world. Sebastian knew it would be the first place to go and cancel the seals. If they could.

Sebastian found a door easily. He opened it and walked I. Moments later he was in the demon world. He saw Rei and Claude standing at the desk near the front. Three people sat at the tables and ate in silence. The ones without lords. Eating souls kept in storage. "Please sign here and here," the demon at the desk said to Claude and Rei. She saw Sebastian approaching and secretly sprayed perfume on herself.

"Hello, Sebastian Michaelis," she said, blushing. "What may I help you with?"

"I'm here to stop them," Sebastian said, pointing at Claude and Rei. The girl looked a little upset. She was hoping he was here to cancel the contract with Ciel to stay there in the demon world with her. But that was a dream.

"Well, I'm sorry, but they just officially signed and are out of the contract. There seals are disappearing now," she said.

Claude smiled. He never had to serve that little brat again. He was happy. He held Rei's hand and dragged her. Sebastian could not go were they were going, so he had to persuade the demon at the desk to let him through. "Excuse me, Miss," he said, smiling. "I need to pass. Is there something you would like me to do to let me pass?" The girl thought, then said, "Kiss me."
