Season 2: Episode 5

Pains

{I do not own Black Butler and/or its characters, I only own the plot and my oc's}

Elena sank into the couch as Sebastian droned on and on about the days plan. She took the time to think about what happened at the party. Both Drocell and Pluto had come back all messed up, but when she had asked, they just said that tree branches got in the way. Yeah. Tree branches.

She frowned, 'how dare they blame their injuries on innocent trees!'

Ciel looked up, "Get ready, we are going to the Trancy Manor in a few days."

Elena groaned, "Why? We were there a week ago! And we didn't even have fun, why go back?!"

"Because we have certain matters that need to be settled with the people of the house." Ciel stood up and walked off, ignoring the annoyed girl lounging on his couch. After mumbling a few 'kind words' about his princess mentality, she reluctantly got up to find some clothing.

Elena stood outside as Ciel and Sebastian interrogated the man inside, and she soon heard all noise stop with a single bang. Sighing she climbed back into the carriage. "Why are you so mean and hateful?" Ciel simply glared at her," I'm not, I'm just fixing my wounded pride." She chuckled," Pride isn't that important, what matters is happiness." Elena looked up to see that Ciel was ignoring her, pouting she slumped into her seat.

Elena cringed smiled as she saw Alois and the others waiting outside, well she was only smiling because she had good connection here. Alois welcomed them inside and led the group to a giant dueling arena {as Sebastian called it}. The peppy brunette happily scanned the area, obviously amazed at the huge structure. Drocell grabbed her by the collar as she tried to climb up the statues leg, effectively spoiling her fun. She was brought out of her pouting by Alois asking," Would your butlers also be participating?"

The brunette chuckled, "Um, I don't think Sebastian needs any help... How about we put them off to the side just in case?" The blonde nodded and Elena skipped up to the viewing platform, she watched as both 'spoiled children' (as she decided to refer to them) gave their orders to their butlers. Elena felt a sudden chill run up her spine, but couldn't exactly put her finger on what had caused it. Well, that was until Viscount Druitt showed up.

He gave a long speech about Hannah's looks, then insisted on staying to observe. And of course he plopped right next to Elena, who promptly got up and moved to Alois's couch. 'He's weird, but not as bad as Druitt. Ciel would've just told me to move…'

As she watched the battle start, the brunette got pumped up, narrating the events happily.

"And so Thompson, Canterbury and Timber go in for the kill all at once with three different weapons! Long range, short rage, and close-combat~ Sebastian quickly kills their attempts in one cool sweep, now all three are going for the final blow at once! Sebastian, armed with knives and a fork, manages to fight them all off!"

Elena was now at the edge of the railing, happily moving her arms about as she narrated the fight.

"Oh no! The triplets have combined weapons to create a giant spear! They're jumping into the air in unison to throw it... OH AND SEBASTIAN CATCHES IT. He's using his magic ninja skills to spin it around, still spinning, still spinning….. And he's throwing it. OW! RIGHT IN THE FOREHEADS!"

The three observers clapped at his awesome achievement. And Alois nodded for Elena to begin again, it made the entire thing a lot more exciting to have someone narrate in such a way.

"And Hannah cuts his jacket with her dagger, and he's… he's sewing while dodging bullets?! If this guy gets any cooler we'll all explode! Hannah's getting frustrated, and she throws her weapons away. ONLY TO PULL A MACHINE GUN OUT FROM UNDER HER DRESS! WHERE DID SHE KEEP/GET THAT?! She's attacking Sebastian with extreme machine force! He's jumping around, and he's throwing a huge mess of knives at an unsuspecting Hannah! Her dress could use some fixing…."

A bell rang, interrupting the fight. As soon as snacks were mentioned, Elena hopped around in excitement. The two butlers started to mix ingredients on a table outside, and were soon tossing batter back and forth. They somehow managed to create two sculptures out of the thrown ingredients. Pluto and Drocell simply mixed together ingredients quietly, only sending each other a glare every now and then. The butlers finally finished their dishes, handing them out. Drocell handed Elena a plate filled with rainbow cake, she happily hopped up and down, eager to eat the multi-colored treat.

Before she could even put a crumb in her mouth, Alois poked a finger into the cake. "How did you get to look like that?" The blonde turned to see an extremely angry girl staring at him, anger practically rolling off of her in waves. "You destroyed it." She grabbed his hand and calmly put it on his lap, "Didn't your parents teach you to never touch other peoples food with dirty hands?!" Pluto calmly moved Alois aside, putting a new piece of cake down for Elena to eat. She happily ate, ignoring Druitt's insane behavior.

The battle was set to start with Hannah, Claude, and Sebastian standing on the field. Elena was in the stands with Drocell and Pluto, who were trying to figure out a way to get the pole out of the triplet's heads. Elena stopped her pulling when she saw Claude pulling something out of Hannah's throat.

'EW! What the heck is he doing?!' Pluto answered,' He seems to be getting some sort of weapon out of her.' Drocell added, 'I'm guessing that it's a sword.' His guess was confirmed when a sword came out, and Elena let out a gag at the fluids coming off of it. The two started to fight, killing the large statues as they went along. Elena was so into the final pull of the spear, that she didn't notice both teens leaving the room. The brunette sighed as the pole finally came out with a sickening 'sloosh' sound.

She sighed and stared as the hole sealed itself up on each of the boy's heads. They bowed in unison and expressed their thanks, all walking off to do whatever it is they do. It was only then that Elena noticed that Ciel and Alois were missing. Telling Drocell and Pluto to stay and watch, she ran off towards the inside of the large mansion. She hopped upstairs only to see Alois and Ciel downstairs talking. 'W-wait how did I not notice them?!'

The brunette nervously watched as they pulled up weapons, not really knowing what to do. She decided to look through her mental 'outcomes book'.

They could turn around and stab each other.

They could fight and get out all of their frustrations, effectively becoming BFF's

One could kill the other

'Well the second one is kind of far-fetched, but hey anything's possible right?'

A loud yell snapped her out of her thoughts. She quickly stood up and tried to run down the stairs, following after Alois as he swung wildly at Alois. "H-hey! You two stop swinging swords at each other!" She tried stepping in between them, but that only managed to get her involved in the weird 'dance'. The brunette used both of her hands to push the two apart, effectively throwing them both to the ground.

Turning to Ciel she yelled, "How on earth would killing him solve anything?! And if you're going to fight with no training, use fake swords!" Crossing her arms the brunette continued," Seriously this whole grudge thing is getting out of con-trol!" Ciel's eyes widened as a sword suddenly appeared through the fabric of her dress, and Elena dropped to the ground. She sat there holding her chest and breathing heavily, a choking sound coming out instead.

Pluto ran into the doors, Drocell following right behind. Alois dropped the sword," This counts as a win right? I mean I did bring someone down right?" Pluto shot him a glare, eyes dilated and glowing red. Elena simply groaned, blood covering her hands as she tried to hold her wound closed. Ciel took the time to slash at Alois, (What? You thought I was going to let him leave this unscathed? Oh no, author-chan has fury)

He effectively managed to get a slash across his chest, and that made the blonde scream. Claude and Sebastian tried to get to the three, but Ciel yelled for everyone to stop. Pointing his sword as a crying Alois, he said," Let me kill him!" A growl came from Elena," You…you're still after that?! Don't you think that maybe right now isn't the time?!" The butler seemed to snap out of it as Ciel rose his sword to finish off Alois, Claude moving to move Ciel out of the way. He was slapped by Ciel, who was quickly grabbed by Sebastian. Drocell picked Elena up and quickly went outside, where Pluto had already changed forms for faster travel.

The demon dog quickly left, traveling to the Undertaker's shop. The weird Shinigami turned around and asked," What can I help you with?" He stopped when he saw the brunette passed out and covered in blood.
