Ronald's POV
I woke up in and odd way. I was sleeping soundly, when I heard arguing and a loud scream, like a scream when someone was dyeing. I sat up and looked around for the reason for the screaming. I only found a ghost. "Hello, Ronald. Haven't seen you in years. More like, haven't tried to kill you in years. Look down," it said evilly. I looked down and saw a chainsaw through my stomach. My body was dissolving.
"Rei," I hissed and fell down. I was going to return to the ghost realm. I was dying again. "I'll be back." It laughed.
"No you won't," it said, and I lost my vision. I was going through the portal. I wouldn't-or couldn't- be back in till 4 years passed.
Ciel's POV
It had been a couple weeks since Alois and I had left Ronald. I loved leaving that bloody place. It was a small home in a desert. He lived alone most of the time, because Ronald himself is a ghost. Most other people made him change into his ghost form, but Alois didn't.
I heard me scream myself awake. My heart was thumping and my palms were sweaty. I knew why I was screaming. I've had been having the same dream since we left. I remember everything. Every bloody detail.
After washing up, I ate something for breakfast the triplets had made. They weren't talkative, but today Thompson made an odd comment. "Ciel is much nicer than the master," he said and walked away, the other two whispering to each other.
It didn't take me very long to find out what Thompson had meant. Thompson thought I'm better and nicer than Alois. Much better. I sighed. Your wrong, Thompson, I thought. I'm not better than Alois. I'm as bad. But I don't show it. I looked at the clouds passing by as my whole body went numb. I didn't ask myself what it was. Claude was taking our temporary contract away. I was fine with that. He wasn't the one I wanted, anyway.
Claude's POV
I stood at the desk impatiently. I had been counting the days in till I could see Rei again. Since I had made a contract with Ciel, I wasn't allowed in the room with my love. I had to stay in contract for a week, in demon time, which is a long time. Because one day in the demon realm is a week in the human realm. I had to spend seven weeks without Rei in the human realm. I had no idea were to stay, so I rented a room in a dumpy hotel and stayed there. I didn't eat anything, just sat in the room and thought and watched TV. Altogether, it would have been better with Rei.
Finally, I was let in the room. I walked in and only saw Kat sitting at a table. I walked over to her and sat down. "Where's Rei?" I asked. Kat pointed toward the door. "She left?" Kat nodded and put her head on her hands.
"She left 3 days ago. I t was a random emergency," she said. "It's been lonely with out her," Kat said sadly.
"Where did she go?" I asked. Kat shrugged.
"All the announcements said was 'Rei Starner report to the desk. It's an emergency. If you don't come, a precious soul will be lost.' She got up and walked away." Kat sighed. "I really miss her."
