I do not own Kuroshitsuji or D. Grayman. They both go to the respectful owners. This is my second yaoi-ish story because my friend asked me to do this and is slowly turning me into a yaoi fan girl. I am doing this out of impulse and I updating will vary from time to time. I have a Sebastian and Allen thing going on. It would make me happy to see more of this crossover pairing. This will be a slight rewrite of the Kuroshitsuji anime with Allen Walker in it. (Since I lost my manga version and my computer is mean when reading online scans)
WARNINGS- This crossover will contain: Slight AU, mild cursing, dark romance, yaoi, angst, gore, violence, adult situations
PAIRINGS: MAIN: Allen/Sebastian
MINOR: Ciel/Sebas, Brotherly!Allen/Ciel
NOTE: There will be not a slight hint of Yullen in this story. Sorry all you Yullen fan girls, I hate that pairing with a fiery passion.
Enjoy Lords and Ladies
CHAPTER 5: That Butler and Exorcist, Competes
The Queen of England had arrived, just as the rumors said. But never, neither Allen nor Lavi thought by any chance they'd ever see Yuu Kanda again. But there he was, standing by the Queen's side, dressed in a fine white and gold uniform with a katana on his belt. Allen and Lavi stared in shock as Kanda walked along the Queen, holding the Queen's other hand.
The Queen was a small woman, all dressed in black wearing a black hat and dark veil to conceal her face. Beside her on her left was another man, a bit taller than Kanda. He looked a lot like Angela, Allen noticed, but wore a similar uniform as Kanda, who held her hand regally. Behind them were the secret police that guarded the Queen. The silver-haired man smiled calmly as Kanda held his eternal scowl.
Everyone stared as the Queen, silent and in surprise. "This is…" the announcer said, he bowed, "England's mother, our beloved Queen Victoria has graced us with her presence!" Kanda and the other man led the Queen.
"Oh! Her Majesty!"
"To actually see her…"
"She certainly has lost some weight."
Lau folded his arms, "Ah, so that's the Queen's new personal bodyguard and captain of her guard squad. A Japanese man, no less." Lavi glanced at Lau, "The rumors did say he's a brutal samurai, cold and ruthless, only loyal to the Queen it seems."
Kanda and Lavi met eyes, but Kanda looked away onward to for the path of the Queen. His eagle-like gaze searching in case of any attacks. Druitt stood and began to sing, "God save our gracious Queen. Long live our noble Queen." Soon everyone joined into singing God Save the Queen. "God save the Queen. Send her victorious," even the Phantomhive servants sang, minus American Bard, Chinese Lau and Ran-Mao, and mongrel Lavi, who just listened, "Happy and glorious, Long to reign over us," Sebastian did not also sing, since he was a demon, yet Allen sang along as Ciel did, since they both were born Englishmen, "God save the Queen."
Queen Victoria was guided to a prepared throne chair, she sat in it. Kanda and Allen locked gazes as he stood by her side, a heated glare formed. Unanswered questions for each other, with no simple answers and secrets. Kanda bowed, still glaring at Allen but took the time to glance at his Queen to sit down, listening to what she said.
The silver haired man then spoke for her, "Her Majesty declares, "We have not seen you in some time, and are sorry to have concerned you. However, our constitution has improved remarkably, and now we are even to come and sample curry. We wish everyone well and hold great expectations for this food, that my late husband loved so much.""
The crowd went into a frenzy of cheers and applause. The announcer turned and grinned, "Well then, to the cuisine!"
Soma was sitting on a fountain in the middle of the Crystal Palace the whole time. He heard the cheers from the crowd, "Has it begun?" he sighed. The words of Mina still pained his heart. He'd went to such struggles to come and find her, only to be blown off by her, being called an idiot.
My god, Prince Soma," Agni thought as he removed the bandages from his right hand. "my strength is all for you!" He grabbed number of spices and he fried and prepared the curry, throwing it on the pan.
"Incredible! That Indian man's hand has a life of its own!"
"And what a splendid fragrance!"
West boasted, "This is God's…no Kali's right hand! Today will be a piece of cake."
Sebastian also took a few spices sprinkling it on to the pan. Allen also worked on the ovens and other tasks, "The Funtom Company is amazing, too!"
The fragrance is just as exquisite!"
West gritted his teeth, "Damn! Those butlers!"
"Hey! What is he doing?" a man pointed out. West looked to see Allen adding chocolate to the curry. "That can't be…Chocolate?"
"What is he thinking, putting chocolate in a curry?"
"How disgusting!"
Kanda glared, "What is that Moyashi doing?" he mumbled. The Queen looked to him, Kanda nodded his head softly saying, "An old acquaintance of mine, Your Majesty."
West guffawed, "That's a sweet maker for you! His advertising puff is certainly unique!"
Ciel watched in silence. Agni however knew better, "No. They're wrong! That's a bona fide ingredient par excellence. Cacao butterfat and milk; the bitterness blended with the spice and the sugar brings out the fullness of the rich spice even more." After Allen used all the chocolate he stirred the curry for a while, passing it on to Sebastian who poured the curry into two tiny bowls to taste it. "How did you, a pair of Englishmen, ever come up with such an idea."
Allen smirked, "It was by our master's order." He remembered Ciel telling him to crush chocolate into the curry. Allen of course passed this on, saying it was said by their master, so naturally they did it. "As long as our master gives an order, we will make it happen, no matter what it may be." Sebastian adding that he was one hell of a butler. Kanda glared at Allen, which Allen met with a soft, "Ba-Kanda." Kanda growled and looked away. Sebastian looked to Allen, "Old acquaintance from my past, don't worry I don't rather like him that much." He continued working busily the curry with Sebastian.
"They have a way with words," Lau commented.
"Is that supposed to be sarcasm?" Ciel scoffed. He did not look down from watching his butler work busily. Agni gasped his focus on the butlers and their master. 'What an unbelievably humble bond.' He thought. He looked around the crowd, not seeing Soma about in it. 'Prince, you really won't forgive me, will you? No, that's why.' Agni picked up a basket of spices, 'I can't afford to lose!' Agni took out a live blue lobster from the basket.
"What's that!"
"A blue shrimp?"
"A blue lobster!" Druitt gasped. "The legendary lobster said to live only off the coast of Brittany. That deep cerulean that even compares favorably to Chartres Cathedral. Wrapped in its delicate, colorful shell, it's just like a fine lady in a blue dress. Hidden underneath that dress, is delicate sweetness of the highest quality, said to lead people to delirium." He swooned.
"As you can see, this is the highest quality ingredient for a curry!" West bragged proudly. "it is not merely some cheap little additive."
"With all my strength," Agni roared, "I shall defeat you, Sebastian and Allen!" Agni killed the lobster and sliced its shell off. He sliced the and peeled the vegetables with ease. He chopped on and on.
The third competitor, the glasses wearing chef and his tea, watched in awe as the one and two man teams work harder and better then he could ever dream of. He went into his pocket, taking out the bag Angela had given him. He poured a glittery substance into his curry.
"Time's up!" the announcer called. "Now the judging will commence. First up is the Persian Tub's Beef Curry."
The fat nobleman took a spoonful, "There are large pieces of beef generously mixed in. "This is quite splendid."
"However," the noble chef said, "this flat taste and fragrance…It's abominable for a professional cook to be using curry powder!" the head human chef team's leader gasped and groaned.
Druitt tried some of the curry himself, "This is your own home spice, isn't it, Doll Company?
"Y-Yes."
"What is it?" Druitt took another inhale of the curry's aroma. "One thing alone stands out, producing an amazing fragrance." The glasses wearing chef gasped a bit.
The noble chef was indifferent, "But the overall balance is poor, and it's overpowered by the fragrance."
Druitt shrugged, "Well, I'll give you points for trying."
"Next up is Chef Agni from the Harold West estate."
"May I present my curry," Agni revealed his own curry, "Lobster and a seven flavored sauce." He showed the blue lobster, presented with 7 different bowls of different curries.
"What amazing brightness!" The noble chef exclaimed. The judges each tried a spoonful of the curry. "D-Delicious!" The chef cried, "The tender meat spreads a delicate sweetness throughout your mouth the moment you bite into it."
The nobleman spoke next, "Moreover, with a seven flavored curry, each flavor blends harmoniously with the lobster."
Druitt swooned in ecstasy, "Ah! This is…The graceful beauty I met at the ball. Like seven jewels adorning your overwhelming elegance. A heart-shaped, golden brooch, a sapphire and pearl bracelet, a garnet necklace, a cameo cut pin, and on your fingertips a diamond and emerald ring! All of them to bring out your beauty even more! I had my heart stolen by you!" the crowd ooh'd and awed in amazement of such a speech.
"Such high class!" the announcer shouted. "Will the winner be decided just like that," West smirked, "or will we see an even better appraisal? Our final contestants is the Funtom Company!"
The two butler walked over, Allen's gray eyes meeting Kanda's once more, tearing away for a kind smile to the judges. Sebastian smiled and said, "We humbly present our curry." He removed the lid to the tray, glowing with radiance.
"Th-This is…" the chef cried in shock. It was revealed to be three pure white pieces of bread. "Are you toying with us?" Allen took a bread with prongs and began frying it. "He's frying it?"
"What are you doing Allen? Are you trying to make doughnuts or something?" Bard yelled. Ciel just stared on.
Allen took each of the fried bread up, "It is complete. This is our company's curry." He placed the bread on the judges' plates.
"And I'm saying, where is that curry?" the chef asked annoyed.
"Wait just a second. This is…" Druitt said looked at the bread. He cut the bread, only to reveal the curry was inside the bread the whole time. Druitt gasped in amazement. "From the inside, the curry is…"
Agni gasped in shock, "What?" West blurted.
Sebastian announced, "This is the curry that our company proudly presents. It is called," Allen and Sebastian announced in unison, "Curry Bread!"
"C-Curry Bread?"
The judges took a piece of the curry bread. The chef judge exclaimed, "This is…" the chef sighed, "This is delicious! The fried bread's crunchy and fluffy crust creates a superb gradation together with the thick curry, which is perfectly formed."
The noble judge agreed, "What's more impressive than anything else, is the architecture that keeps in the taste and fragrance of the curry. The moment you pierce it with a knife, it is all released!"
Druitt moaned and swooned even more in euphoria, "This is the alluring young lady I met at the dinner party. By day, she was childlike, teasing little bird, but in the evening she revealed her true face, and what was there was no less than a true lady. I want to embrace you!" the crowd ooh'd and awed in excitement from once again, Druitt's monologue. West growled, clenching his cane, Ciel shuddered uncomfortably.
"Once again, what is this high praise?" The announcer inquired excited. "Has the victor become less certain?"
Agni looked to the Phantomhive butlers, "Sebastian, Allen, you both are…"
The two butlers smirked, drawing the heated electrical storm of rivalry in the air between the demon butler and the human butler. Allen felt a bit shocked.
"Now we shall allow the judges time to deliberate on their verdict!" the announcer announced. "During that time, everyone, please help yourselves to whichever curry suits you!"
On tables, each team's curry dish had been multiplied to fit the crowd's desires. Everyone tried a sample of each curry. As they watched the servants taste the curry, Lau mentioned, "Oh yes. The Queen didn't try any. Isn't she going to judge?"
"She probably isn't judging out of consideration of her health." Ciel said looking over to the Queen and her two servants. "However, there is a possibility she will try a curry she is interested in. Depending on that, the judges' impression will change. The bestowal of the Royal Warrant is down to Her Majesty. By the by, it seems Lavi and Allen know the Her Majesty's bodyguard and captain of the guard." Ciel looked to Lavi.
"He's Yuu Kanda," Lavi explained. "A Japanese man, he used to be in the Order with me and Lavi. We fought together, argued with each other, cried together. He's a very cold, distant, grumpy person, but he's got a good heart. During the final battle between us and our enemy, Kanda and I teamed up to fight a formidable foe. He was injured badly, and he couldn't hold up another sword. So, he was taken to Edo for R&R. We never heard from him again, it's just…impossible…a miracle he's here, full healed and walking, and sword in hand. Working for the Queen of England no less! Yuu-chan…" he mumbled. He stared to the Japanese samurai, who had his attention on the Queen.
West chuckled confidently, "The popularity of our curry is overwhelming," he saw the crowd trying out Agni's seven flavored curry.
"Overconfidence is dangerous," Agni advised. "Sebastian and Allen's Curry Bread is also…" many people, mostly women, were eating the curry bread happily.
"There's no need to worry, right?" a girlish voice chimed. "my dear husband?" Mina smiled.
"Mina! Why are you here?" West asked his Indian wife.
"If by chance the prince saw you, it would-" Agni looked around worriedly.
"He already did," Mina piped up.
"You met him? You can't mean…"
Mina hugged West, smiling like a cat that got it's bird.
Soma stared at a statue of Goddess Kali. His thoughts on one person, "Agni." He bowed his head, "You knew, and were purposely trying to prevent Mina and me from meeting.
"What are you doing?" Ciel asked him, coming from behind him. Soma looked back to the little earl. "Your retainer is fighting on your behalf. Are you going to simply leave him like that?"
"No. I'm just reflecting on things. I didn't know anything. No. I didn't even try to find out. Mina's thoughts and Agni's feelings.
"If you know that, why are you standing out here like a statue?" Ciel turned around, "You've thought about it, right? What a master should do for a retainer who fights on his behalf?"
"Ciel…"
"Oh, he's there! Prince!" Finnie cried, waving at him, Bard and Maylene with him.
Maylene was holding a plate with curry bread on it. "The tasting has already started!"
"If you don't hurry, it'll all be gobbled up!" Bard grinned.
"Here. Have some of this." Maylene offered the plat with the curry bread on it.
Soma took the bread and took a bite out of it. "This is delicious!" Soma praised. "Your butlers' Curry Bread has an incredibly kind taste to it."
Agni was crying tears of blood again. "Why did you do that?" Agni asked Mina angrily. "You know how much the prince felt for you. You always seemed to have such fun!"
Mina strutted to the fallen retainer, "Someone like you would never understand. You were a Brahmin, and yet you threw it away. Now you're just a butler. How would you know?"
"Then, for what reason did I…"
"Don't ask me." Mina sneered, then she walked off. 'That's right! I'll climb higher and higher, using as many men as I can on the way!' Mina thought as she examined which curry she'd try first. The something caught her eye; it was the curry the human team made. It called to her, so she took a spoonful of it and tasted it. Then she felt something inside pulsate.
The Queen's silver-haired servant then spoke to Sebastian and Allen, "Chefs Sebastian and Moyashi of the Funtom Company."
"It's Chefs Sebastian and Allen of the Funtom Company," Allen corrected him.
"Ah, but according to our Captain of the Guard who seems you are already acquainted with, calls you Moyashi. I thought it was your name, or at least a nickname you preferred to be called." Kanda smirked, amused.
Allen growled, glaring at Kanda, "Believe me, call me Allen," he sneered, "Right? Ba-Kanda?" Kanda growled and was about to curse him out, but was halted by the Queen, so Kanda just growled and snorted, "Che." The two locked glares, the familiar flames of rage and hatred burnt as the two glared at each other, Sebastian breaking it by pulling the white-haired boy away.
The butler in white smiled, "Anyway, Her Majesty wishes to partake of a Curry Bread. Could I please ask you to bring one over here?" Sebastian smiled and nodded. The crowd gasped when they overheard the silver-haired butler Sebastian took a bread and presented it to the Queen.
"Please enjoy it, Your Majesty," He bowed, Allen following suite. Kanda first took the plate; he looked over it in case it was contaminated. He then presented it to the Queen. The Queen removed her black glove and took the bread, lifting her veil and taking a bite of it. Everyone watched in silence and anticipation. She then gave her quite answer to the silver haired butler and Kanda.
The butler then said aloud, "Her Majesty declares, "A food that is easy for even children to eat, requiring neither knife nor fork, fulfilling both the rich and the poor, is commensurate with my goal of creating a kind and pure country." Treasuring children and the future, this kind stance moves Her Majesty greatly."
"Don't make me sick!" a woman jeered loudly, obnoxiously.
Kanda roared, grabbing the hilt of his katana, "Who dares scoff at Her Majesty's kind review?"
It was Mina, who radiated a dark aura, "That's too sugary. Equality? The future?" her eyes glowed a demonic red. "For this bountiful country, where there are no hardships, what a pretentious queen!" she slapped the curry off the table furiously.
"You bitch! How dare you insult Her Majesty?" Kanda barked.
"Mina, stop at once!" West cried, trying to stop his raging wife. "You're in Her Majesty presence!"
"Get lost!" Mina hissed, upper cutting West, sending her husband flying.
Kanda ordered his soldiers, "Restrain her!" the officers charged to Mina.
"Shut up! Curry is," using Hindu fighting techniques she shrieked, "rough and spicy!"
Druitt swooned as Mina went on her rampage, "With her flowing legs carrying her and her inviting hip pose…She is truly like the Kali statue!" An officer fell onto the poor perverted Viscount.
Pretty soon, more and more other people started radiating a dark aura. Ciel looked to the Queen, "Your Majesty!" the Queen was sitting calmly and still, her butler by her side, Kanda was standing with her, his hand on the hilt of his sword, growling and sending warning looks to anyone who dare attack his queen, protecting her like a dutiful dog. Ciel tried to run over there, but was blocked by two possessed men.
"It smells!" a man hissed, "It smells of hatred and desire!" soon other possessed people turned their attention to the young Phantomhive, surrounding him. "The stench of filth!"
Sebastian and Allen then appeared, beating the ones who dare threaten their master. Sebastian used kitchen utensils while Allen used his fists and martial arts. "Are you trying to become like Asura, the one who faced Kali?" Sebastian asked his master.
"It's the demon's job to become the head that Kali holds, right?" Ciel said looking to his very own demon. Sebastian smirked, "Sebastian, Allen, kindly rewrite the legend. Stop that Kali."
"Yes, my Lord."
As frightened bystanders ran to the exit, Soma stopped one asking, "What happened?"
"An Indian woman went on a rampage!" the man yelped.
"What?" The possessed few were fighting of the officers. Causing chaos and destruction upon the festival. Some looked around, "This is…" he saw Mina fighting off Sebastian in front of the Queen.
"You are quite skilled," Sebastian commended the woman, "That is a demon-hunting goddess for you."
"Mina…" Soma mumbled. Agni ran to his god. "Prince!" Soma looked to his servant, "Agni."
"I am…I am a French chef," the glasses wearing chef from the human team growled, rising from he ground, glowing that dark ominous aura. "I hate spicy things!"
"Pardon me," Agni hit the French chef away.
"Agni, what is this?" Soma asked as more possessed people circled them.
"I do not know. After eating the curry, all of a sudden Mina and a portion of the audience have…"
"Have gone crazy!" Lavi then said; appearing behind the Indian duo, knocking away the possessed ones with his enlarged hammer.
Soma saw the fallen beef curry and took a taste of it. "Curryma!" he said."Father told me of it once. It reacts to the darkness, desire, and impurities in people's hearts and them into demonic madness. It is a forbidden spice." Mina kept on kicking and trying to strike Sebastian. Ciel managed to get to the Queen's side, Kanda in front of him and the Queen by a few steps, protecting the earl and Majesty. Allen fending off any other possessed person who dared come close to the Queen. "Mina…" Soma mumbled. "You were bearing that great a burden in your heart?
"It is not your fault, your highness," Lavi tried to comfort him. "If she has succumbed to the effect of the evil spice, then…"
"I know that. You don't have to tell me, Lavi." Soma sighed, "Up to now, I blamed my loneliness and Mina's situation on other people. No one should care for a brat like that, " Soma looked to Agni and Lavi, "Agni, you have always stayed by my side, and you Lavi, you have loyally guided me through every obstacle. You shall be rewarded greatly."
Both Agni and Lavi began to cry tears, "D-Don't worry your highness, y-you don't have to." He smiled. "BUT IT'S GREATLY APPREICITAED!"
Soma smiled crookedly, "I'm sorry for not noticing it until now. Please, Agni," he put a hand on Agni's shoulder, "will you keep being my butler?"
"Prince…" Agni smiled and nodded. Lavi wiped his tears, smiling. Soma nodded, "Stop Mina, Agni and Lavi."
"Jo anja!" Agni roared, removing his bandages, revealing his right hand of god. 'Has there ever been a time when my spirits have soared this high? Now I have become one with my god!' Agni charged forward.
Lavi smirked, taking his hammer and making it grow. "Big hammer, little hammer….Grow! Grow! Smash!' he started smashing and whacking away the possessed men, as Agni stroked them away. The two others stood back to back with the Phantomhive butlers, "We shall support you, Allen, and Mr. Sebastian!" he looked to Kanda and waved, "Yo, Yuu-chan!"
"Shut the hell up Baka-Usagi!" Kanda barked. "And get focused!"
The silver haired butler chuckled, "Yuu-chan?"
Kanda hissed, "Ignore the Baka-Usagi," he shot to the butler.
"You have become even more potent Agni. Has something happened?" Allen asked.
"Yes! Right now, I am invincible!" Agni grinned confidently. Sebastian smirked, Allen smiled as Lavi chuckled.
Sebastian then said, "Then, I shall leave the two on the right for you both."
"Right!"
"Too easy!"
Lavi and Agni knocked away the two possessed men. Sebastian and Allen assaulted the other attackers.
The silver-haired butler bowed his head, "You have a most splendid pair of butlers, do you not? It seems there will be no need for me or Captain Kanda to make an appearance." Ciel looked back as Kanda relaxed a bit, standing tall and straight beside his queen.
Kanda then asked, "But do you now think this peculiar? If that was the power of the spice, then why it is that just one group of people was affected?" he looked as he saw his underlings fight off the crazed people.
The servant nodded, "If that were the case, there should be many more going out of control. After all, there is no one in this world who is truly at peace with themselves."
Ciel looked to see the fallen curry bread on the floor. The he looked to the judges, everyone one person who tried the curry bread were happy and peaceful. Mina charged passed Sebastian, coming straight to the Queen. Kanda put his hand to the hilt of his katana, draw it a little bit, but Soma got in front of the aristocrats, "Wait, Mina!" He shouted, stopper her. The Queen put a hand on Kanda's katana hand, making the samurai relax a bit.
"That idiot!" Ciel cried.
Soma pictured himself as Asura, Mina as Kali standing over him holding the devil's head. 'This is the only way to calm Kali!'"Now come, Mina!" he yelled at the stampeding crazy woman. The woman slipped on a luckily placed blue lobster, falling on the floor.
"Prince Soma!" Agni and Lavi cried.
Soma ran over to Mina, raising his foot, "Forgive me, Mina!" he stomped on her back. He would be Kali, Mina his Asura!
"Sebastian, Allen! The Curry Bread!" Ciel called to his butlers. "make them eat your Curry Bread!"
"Understood!" the two butler took out a plate of curry breads.
Ciel thought as Allen and Sebastian thought curry bread into the mouths of the possessed citizens, 'A kind curry created by a demon and his pet. How absolutely like him. A completely ironic joke. However, if he decided to imbue it with kindness, even using some of what is his kindness, then its power if perfect.' Ciel nodded his head.
"Take this!" Allen yelled as he threw more bread into struggling Mina's mouth. The kind taste, fought the horrid spice, making that glow die down. Clueless civilians, now calmed, looked around.
"Just what is happening?" an officer asked.
Even the aura in Mina died down, she wheezed. Soma got off her, "M-Mina?"
Mina looked at the prince, "Soma? You really are the worst." She then fainted from exhaustion.
"Her Majesty declares," the silver-haired servant said, Kanda who finally out of of his battle stance, ""The kind Curry Bread is able to subdue evil spice and appease the souls of those in the grip of evil. The Royal Warrant's destination is clear""
Twilight finally came, after a long traumatizing day. Many people were being unconscious and injured people were being cared for as the employees cleaned up the mess. The noble group watched Mina being carried away by the police on a stretcher to the hospital, "What will happen to them?" Allen asked.
"They will not be mistreated," The Queen's servant said. Kanda by his side, arms folded scowling horribly. Allen frowned as Lavi smiled like a moron waving. "Master Ciel, you did a sterling job today. Also for obtaining the Royal Warrant. I congratulate you sincerely."
Kanda just snorted. "Good job…brat." Ciel glared at the Queen's bodyguard and captain of the guard.
The silver-haired man smiled, looking back to the Queen was had the officers behind her, "I have a word of appreciation from Her Majesty. Her Majesty declares, "I have put you through a great deal of trouble. I am ever watching your work." Kanda and I are the light and Master Ciel is the shadow." The butler bowed, "Our position may be different, but I believe our wishes are the same. Please continue to use your strength for Her Majesty's benefit in the future."
"I shall." Ciel replied simply.
The butler smiled, "Well then, we shall take our leave. Come Kanda," he said turning. Kanda followed.
"Later Yuu-chan!" Lavi called.
"Goodbye Kanda," Allen said stiffly, giving a polite nod at his old comrade. Kanda growled at Lavi, and gave a curt nod to Allen, continuing onwards to the Queen. Allen knew this would not be the last time he'd see Kanda, he was also a player in this game.
Soma smiled, looking to Ciel, "Thank you, Ciel. If I hadn't met you, I would have remained an ignorant, selfish child." Ciel said nothing. "From now on, I'll learn lots more, and travel all over England…No the world, and become a fine enough man not to lose face to anyone!"
Lavi smirked, "I guess I can still hang around Soma-sama, even after my pay check. His highness, Soma-sama is entertaining to stay with, and travelling the world will help me record a bit more history. It'll be fun, if I can still have Agni's curry! Just for a little while longer!" Allen chuckled at Lavi's blissfully childishness.
Soma looked to Sebastian, "Mister Sebastian," he bowed, "the prince and I have gained so much from you all. I could not begin to thank you."
Sebastian kneeled to Agni, "Please raise you head. I merely fought on my own behalf. I have done nothing to be thanked for. Just as the gods you believe in, Kali and Shiva could take the pain they held and see their mistakes, so it is with you both."
Allen smiled to Ciel, "Also, I doubt a bounding experience without pain would be a fruitful one." Sebastian and Agni rose together.
"To be taught my own country's teachings by a pair of Englishmen…" Agni smiled sheepishly, "I am truly humbled."
Allen beamed, "Nationality does not matter. Wherever and whenever you are, there are always similarities."
Sebastian pulled the boy into an embrace, "Between humans, that is.' The light of the twilight dusk illuminating them.
"That's true," Lavi agreed, "Just as the sunset by the bank of the Ganges and the sunet of the England are both beautiful."
Soma stared in awe at the lovely scene of sunset. He pulled Ciel in a hug, which was mimicked by Lavi with Allen, pulling him out of Sebastian's arms. Both began sobbing loudly and obnoxiously, strangely about Mina. Allen and Ciel struggled to get free. Sebastian, bothered, slammed his fist on Lavi's head, making him let go of Allen and securely wrap his own arms around the boy. Lavi ended up clinging to Ciel with Soma.
Agni smiled softly, "I am so glad we came to England. Not only did Lavi reunite with his long lost friend, but the prince and I, as well as he, have made the best of friends."
Sebastian was a bit startled, "Friends, you say?" He looked down to Allen and kissed his head. "This is the first time someone has called me that."
"Stop it! You're getting me wet!"
Thus ends the Agni ark? Better than expected? Lavi AND Kanda are there. Lavi hanging around Soma and Kanda serving Victoria as her guard. Happy New Year Everyone! Let's make it a good one!
