Ciel Phantomhive watched as the car pulled up in his driveway, he turned and walked out of the study. Thinking about how this would work out. Mr Pleasant and his aquaintance Valkyrie Cain were responsible for his parents death. He had noticed that Pleasant had feelings for the girl and had decided on the best way to destroy him. By destroying the one thing he loved most. Valkyrie Cain...
Ciel and Sebastian stepped through the front doors of his manor and approached the gleaming Audi A5. Octavia was in the frontseat, and Chasity next to her. Sebastian opened the back door and Ciel got in. He closed the door and walked round the other side, getting in behind Octavia, who was smirking at him in the rear-view mirror. He smiled back as Octavia focused on the road ahead, though he did notice she kept on checking every 10 minutes or so. The whole way there was in complete silence, apart from the soft purring of the engine...
Tanith got off her bike and kicked the stand down as Ghastly and Fletcher stepped out of Ghastly's van. Fletcher was quiet from the talk him and Ghaslty had on the way there about Chasity and her saftey. 'I don't know why Skulduggery put her with them. I mean last week he almost killed her!'
'Skulduggery must have trusted Octavia enough to look after her, she'll be fine. Calm down.' Had been Ghastly's words. Fletcher didn't tell anyone else, but when he got the chance he's get rid of that butler and his obnoxious master, once and for all...
Octavia and Chasity didn't bother waiting for Ciel and Sebastian as they walked into the village of Troycaron. Octavia knew where to go and she didn't want to personally work with Sebastian, or Ciel for that matter. They were both untrusyworth people, never to be meddled with. Chasity and Octavia stopped outside a old abandomed warehouse. Sebastian and Ciel approached and stopped next to them. 'THIS is the place?' Ciel remarked 'It seems so, my lord.'
'Octavia see to the door, you have nothing to hide, I presume?' Chasity commented, sending a snide glance in Sebastian's way 'Indeed, mistress.' Octavia replied, who started walking to the followed her and before she could protest, he simply said 'if couldn't help a woman to open a barred door, then what sort of butler would I be?'
'Hm, I'm not sure, and I really don't care. I KNOW you didn't join us to help, you're after something else. I will find out what it is. And when I do, I'll stop you.' She replied befroe raising her right leg and kicking down the door. 'I am simply one hell of a butler too, you see.' She turned to Chasity, 'now, shall we proceed?'
They stepped into the warehouse, it was partially empty. There were beer cans and needles all over the floor. 'I hate druggies.' Ciel said, pulling a disgusted face at the floor. Octavia looked around some more, a broken clock on the wall, an old darts board, a couch and a smashed TV. Nothing here that can point out that the person or people who lived here could be the ones to cause the breakout. But, she still had a suspicion. She wasn't going to give up.
not yet. 'Octavia! Over here!' Shouted Chasity, who was standing near a set of old, iron stairs. 'What is it mistress?' 'I heard something, coming from up there. Go, check it out.'
Octavia bowed and said 'Yes, my baroness.' At the same time, Ciel turned to Sebastian. 'You will go with her. Do whetever needs to be done...'
Sebastian got down onto one knee, placed his hand over where his heart should be and said 'yes, my lord.'
Octavia and Sebastian walked up the stairs, quietly and carefully. They could've easily jumped up, but they wanted to be cautious. Octavia was the first to reach the top, she took a left as Sebastian took a right. They looked over at each other and nodded. Put all grudges aside, they had a job to do and when given an order by their master, they had to complete it. Octavia walked silently along the wall. Searching through every possible door and gap. You could never be too careful in a situation like this. She turned at the sound of a creaking floorboard. She noticed it was coming from the opposite side of the room so she took cautious steps around a crater. When she looked up, she saw a door. Behind that door, was the person or people that she had heard. Sebastian emerged from behind another wooden crater and nodded towards the door. Octavia nodded and in unison, they both started towards the door. Sebastian had his knives inbetween his fingers and Octavia had her sword by her side. She put three fingers up and one by one, they went down '3, 2, 1..' On one, Sebastian kicked down the door and stepped inside, followed by Octavia. They looked around the room to see three teenagers tied up, unconcious. Sebastian started checking the room whilst Octavia went to deal with the three boys. She untied them and layed them on the floor and was about to go join Sebastian when one of them twitched. 'Sebastian!' She called. 'One of them's stirring.' Sebastian turned and walked over. 'He's got a pulse, but it's weak. If we don't get them medical attention, they'll most likely die.'
Sebastian turned to Octavia 'you seen to be good with this subject. Why don't you help them?'
'Because I don't have the equipment I need. I need some ibuprofen and naloxone hydrochloride commonly known as Narcan. Where am I going to get them around here?'
'Maybe in these crates?' Sebastain answered, whilst prying open the containers. Sending paracetamol and other substances out onto the floor. Octavia smiled, 'Clever.'
Sebastian and Octavia walked down the stairs, carrying the teenagers in their arms. Chasity and Ciel were at the bottom still. They'd obviously had an argument, as they were faced away from each other and were both red in the face. 'Mistress? What happened?'
'Mr I'm so perfect over there is acting too cocky. So cocky that his stupid ego couldn't handle it.'
'Oh, so I'm the one who has the big ego, Mrs, I have the best butler ever? Sebastian could beat Octavia any day.' Ciel remarked.
Sebastian and Octavia stood there, the teenagers still on their shoulders. Shocked at their masters actions towards each other. Octavia smiled at her Mistress' remarks and simply commented 'Now, now. You both need to calm down. If anyone was to win, it would definitley be me.'
Sebastian dropped the teenages on the floor and turned to Octavia. 'Excuse me? You think you can beat me? I think your ego is getting the better of you.'
'MY ego? My dearest Sebastian. I know what your capable of and how you act in situations. Your just as bad as me!'
'Are you challenging me?'
'If the boot fits...'
Sebastian ran at Octavia, knives out, he threw them and Octavia managed to jump out of his direction. Ciel and Chasity had totally forgotten about their recent argument and were watching their butlers fight over who has the best ego. Octavia swung her sword, aiming for Sebastians chest, but at the last second, she moved the swipe towards his neck. He ducked and done a flip over her head, she immediatley turned, and deflected the knives that came her way.
She grabbed Sebastian by the troat and threw him into the wall, splintering it. He got up and sent another knife her way she jumped, rolled and came up to knee as Sebastian kicked her in the chin, she went tumbling into a wooden box, sending all the contents onto the floor. As Sebastian came up to Octavia,
she rolled behind him and this time he was too slow to deflect anything. She bought her sword up to his throat. 'I know this won't kill you, but I'm not letting you go until you admit that I'm better than you. Go on, we're waiting...'
Sebastian caved in, 'fine, Octavia your a better butler than...'
Before he could finish the sentence, the door to the warehouse opened, and in came the group that Sebastian, Ciel, Chastiy and Octavia were meant to be fighting in the first place. Octavia immedietley let go of Sebastian and they both got into fighting stance, Ciel stood back and Chasity came foward to help,
but Octavia stopped her, 'mistress, you are in no good shape to fight, thanks to a certain someone...' She turned her head towards Sebastian who smiled cheekily at her. The gang members bought out their guns at the same time that Ciel and Chasity shouted their orders.
'Sebastian, I order you to protect me! Stop them!'
'Octavia! I command you to stop them!'
Sebastian and Octavia looked over at their masters 'Yes, my lord.'
'Indeed, mistress.'
