...
The team hurriedly went to the top floor.
Then, suddenly the clouds outside became dark. It appeared that the day had become night. Without looking at the almost-starry-sky, they continued running.
When they reached the final hall before the top floor, they saw a black robe, lying on the floor.
"That... Isn't that the Queen's black robe?" Ciel asked.
"What's it doing over there? Should we take a look?" Russia suggested.
Because they were passing it anyway, they did what Russia said.
When they lifted up the robe, it surprised them to see a pool of blood under that robe.
"Wh-what is this...?" Japan was shocked until he didn't know how to react properly.
"I don't like this..." Ciel gritted his teeth.
They put back the robe on the ground and looked at the wooden door at the end of the hall.
Sebastian had a bitter expression on his face at the moment he saw this door. Ciel soon noticed it. "So, he's in there, huh?"
"Most certainly, Young Master."
"Well, then. What are we waiting for? We shouldn't show the enemy the fear~" Russia said it with a playful tone. The weird thing is that he didn't even looked like he's scared or anything.
Without saying anything, the team ran towards the door, and opened the door to the final battle.
...
.~.~.~.~.~.~.
...
Beyond the door, was not exactly the top floor.
It is the rooftop.
Jack was standing near the end of the roof, as the winds were blowing.
"So, you're here after all..." Ciel talked to Jack.
Hearing this voice, Jack turned towards the team. He walked towards them slowly and when the moon started to appear, the moonlight revealed Jack's bloodstained hands. Not only that, there were few traces of blood too on his butler suit and face.
When Ciel saw this, he quickly looked around, and he saw a great pool of blood on the left and right side of the rooftop. The clothes that were lying on the floor were heavily stained by the bloody red. Seeing this, the team knew that it was too late.
...
"So... You've done it then..." Ciel gritted his teeth.
Jack gave an evil smile. Then, he laughed a bit. "By the way, I don't see England with you."
"You already know right?" Russia joined the conversation.
"Oh yeah. The Link had gone anyway. I thought he had committed suicide or something."
"What did you say!? The Link... had disappeared!?" Japan was surprised.
"So, that guy didn't manage to save him after all. Even an envoy could be stubborn." Ciel folded his arms.
"But this is still just the first part of my plan B."
...
Seconds later, black winds and auras started to gather around Jack. When they subsided, the team could see a pair of black, eagle-like wings emerged from Jack's back. Not only that, his hands turned into black, dragon-like claws.
Sebastian held his chin and had an evil smile. "So, I take it as your true form?"
"Close, but not quite."
...
Jack walked towards the end of the rooftop, widened his wings. Then, he turned towards the team again. A second later, someone jumped down between Jack and the team.
It was the fake Japan.
"It's you again!" Japan became angry, and readied his battle stance. The latter did the same.
"It's time. Do something for me." Jack signaled his underling to finish this.
The fake Japan nodded, and took out his katana.
"Jack! What are you going to do!?" Japan demanded Jack.
"I'm going to get my new comrade."
"New comrade?"
"'If a nation died before the homeland falls down, a new "him" or "her" will be born'. Sounds familiar?"
This statement shocked the team. They knew what this will mean.
...
When Jack was about to go, Sebastian prepared his stance. Then, a few seconds later, suddenly, a magic circle appeared under Jack's feet, trapping him.
"What the-"
Everyone looked at the left, and it revealed England. He was stretching his left hand, thus creating the magic circle.
"Everyone! Don't let him get away! He's planning to make the newly born America into his ally!"
This signaled every members, and Russia moved quickly. He suddenly appeared behind Jack and knocked him using his iron pipe. At the same time, England released his magic circle.
However, instead of knocked down, Jack used his wings to float. Since the wings had just been created, so perhaps it still needed time to be completely perfect.
Jack looked at England's direction. "So, the old America had pretty much told you everything, huh?"
"Yeah, you can say that. But, he still didn't explain about who that fake Japan really is and your motives of wanting a strong military power."
Jack scratched his head, as he kept blocking Russia's attacks.
"This accomplice of mine, is a demon created by me. He was a human, but I killed him."
The team was pretty surprised.
"You won't be able to defeat him. Even if his head is chopped off, his body have been crushed completely, he won't die."
"Why's that?" England impatiently asked Jack.
"He is bound to me. As long as you don't defeat me, he won't be defeated."
"So, in the end, everything will end after we defeated you."
"Exactly, however..."
...
Jack landed on the floor, and punched the floor hard, cracking it.
"Would you be able to do it?" He said in a heavy, monotone voice, while wearing an evil expression in his face. His sapphire-blue eyes, turned to deep, heavy crimson eyes.
...
In addition to this, Ciel also wore his sinister smile. He took out his eyepatch as he said a few words.
"In the name of my tainted family, I order you: Kill him!"
Sebastian smiled evilly, and his eyes changed to crimson for a second there.
"Yes, my lord."
...
Japan took out his katana to continue the duel between him and his doppelganger which had been suspended due to... certain circumstances.
"I still have my duty to return honor to my land."
...
Russia's eyes changed to crimson, too, like Sebastian. It seemed as he was activating his demonic powers.
"Ufu~ I'm looking forward to kill you all~"
...
England took out his sword, and prepared his magic attack.
He looked at the stained royalty clothes that was lying on the ground near his foot. He cried a bit.
"I'm terribly sorry, Your Majesty. I wasn't able to protect you..."
After he did that, he rubbed his eyes and opened a book, which contained a lot of magic incantations.
"As a nation of this land, I will judge you!"
...
Seeing the enemies in front of him getting ready and fired up to fight him, he laughed hysterically.
...
"So, then... shall we close the curtain?"
...
Author's note:
Okay, I won't waste any time. Sorry for being so short. This is chapter 24. Maybe I've been updating too fast. But honestly, I'm having a little bit of trouble in this one. Cliffhanger? YES.
Oh, and I injured my elbow and knee during today's Physical Education. I fell during a basketball sparring... (I should be more careful, I guess). It still hurts till now...
Anyway, please enjoy this chapter, and the next one will be all about battles!
Oh, before I forget, I'M TERRIBLY SORRY FOR WHAT HAPPEN TO AMERICA. ;A;
