Moonlight: I DON"T OWN ANYTHING BUT MOONLIGHT.

Chapter 18: His Butler, Death

Moonlight's POV

I wake up, being carried by someone, not sure. I blink a couple of times to see Sebastian carrying me. I yawn and snuggle up next to him, not really caring what he was doing. I then open my eyes, thinking that I need to get up. I stretch, and Sebastian put me down. I realized that he had just entered my room. I sigh, yawning.

"So what we doing today?" I ask. I transform into a green Victorian gothic dress, and slipped on some black flats, along with my sapphire necklace, it turning emerald. "Not much, just that somebody is coming today for business trip." Sebastian says. "Oh." Is all I say. I clap my hands together. "Well, then! I guess I'd better go outside then! See ya, Sebastian!" I yell over my shoulder, sprinting down the hallway.

I jump over the railing and sprinted outside, wanting to play with the hellhounds. I sprint outside, to see that none of them came to greet me. "Hmm." I mumble, walking around the mansion to the back. I see them and I call them. They were in a circle. Tempete raised his head and whined.

I quickly ran over. I got into the circle to see Minuit laying on her side, not moving. "Minuit?" I call out. She doesn't move. I get down and touch her. She was cold. "Minuit!" I yell. She still didn't move. I began to shake her. She still didn't move. I sigh, tears in my eyes. I take a deep breath and yelled "FINNY!"

I could feel the ground vibrate as Finny came running. "Yes what is i…." He saw Minuit. "Help me bury her somewhere." I commanded. "She… she's dead?" Finny ask. I nod. "She probably died, because she was a runt." I explained. Tears streamed down his face. I hug him, and cried too.

After a while we got over it, and I carried the huge wolf to the forest where Sebastian wouldn't mind us digging around back there. Finny dug a deep hole, and I tossed her in, along with her favorite blanket that she would always steal from me. Finny covered the whole and I shiver. I place a tombstone for her so we knew where she was buried.

I sigh, saddened by her sudden death. I then grab Finny and raced back to the mansion. "We can't let this bother us, a guest is coming! We need to prepare!" I exclaimed. "Right!" and he finally started running along with too.

We finally made it back to the mansion to see a carriage pull up. "Oh, they're here!" I yelled. I ran to the door, panting. The carriage door opens and a lady comes out. "Hello, madam!" I greet warmly to her. She was very kind looking. "Why hello dear. How are you?" She asks kindly. "Good, may I lead you inside?" I offer. She lets me and I lead her to the door. Sebastian opens the door, and leads her inside. "Welcome, my lady. My master has been waiting for you." Sebastian welcomes her and takes her coat, and leads her upstairs. I sigh, wanting to go along with, but that would be rude.

I turn around and went outside. I call for the hellhounds to come back. They came slowly, sadden that their sister was dead. I jumped onto Tempete, and I lied down on his back. Suddenly, Kuroro was in my face. "ASHIFIFISBIDLE!" I freak out. It had been a very long time since I saw Kuroro. Almost two months since I last seen him. "Kuroro!" I yell, hugging him. He mews in response. I look behind him, to see a white tailed demon cat with yellow eyes, with blood red markings on her.

A her. That could only mean one thing. Three baby twinned tailed demon cats came out from behind their mother. One looked exactly like it's mother, only a black background fur color instead of white, and with green eyes. Another one had white fur, with sky blue markings, and with icy blue eyes. The last was creamed colored with black stripes speckling it, and had red eyes.

Kuroro has children. "Wait a minute! How is that even possible!" I thought out loud. I don't ever remember demon cats running around the place. I sigh. "Well, I'm going to have to name all of you then!" I pick up the mother cat. "You will be Kirere." I look at the green eyed kitten. "You will be…" I check to see what it was. "Kurara." I look to the white furred one. I check to see what it was.

"You will be Kiyuyu." I then turn to the last and check. "And you will be Kuhoho." I sigh. Sebastian was going to be excited. "Well then, come on Tempete! We need to go back to the mansion!" I commanded, realizing that we were back in the woods.

Tempete turns around and runs back to the mansion. I jump off to see it getting cloudy, the clouds getting darker. "Come on Tempete, Ombre, Pluto! It's going to storm!" I call. They immediately came running, not wanting to be in the rain.

I lead them to the back of the mansion, were they are safer than in the front. I pet them and went inside, the band of mini Kuroro's following. I sneak up to my room, not really sure why I was sneaking, and shut the door.

I sigh, relaxing on my bed. The mini Kuroros jumped up onto the bed, and curl up next to me. I yawn, and fell asleep.

I stretched to find it very late. "BOO!" I hear my sister say in my face. "Hmm? Sorry but it's too dark to see you." I say. "Aww, I wanted to scare you…" She whines. "What are you doing here? Don't you have to go back to where ever you go when you leave?" I question. "Yes, but Lord Aizen said that I can come here, whenever I want. Come to think of it, I can pretty much stay here." She said. "Really? That's great!" I say, jumping up, hugging her. She hugs back, and we jumped up and down. I pick her up and ran outside of my room.

I stopped, realizing that its nighttime. I start walk down hall quietly, not sure if anybody was still awake. I jump over the railing, and see the dining room lit. I quietly snuck over to the or way and peered inside. Ciel was eating dinner. "Oh, I guess it's not that early…" I thought out loud.

Sebastian looked up at me. I walk in quickly, like I just walked in. Ciel looks up from eating. "Yes, Moonlight? What is it?" Ciel asks. "Oh, uh… I was wondering-"No." Ciel interrupted. "Uh, what? But you don't know what I was going to say…" I started.

Ciel "chuckles". "I was kidding." He stated. "Oh…." I mumble, embarrassed. "A-anyways. I was wondering if you would allow my younger sister to stay." I ask, bowing lowly. I didn't hear anything. I was beginning to worry that he'd say no.

"It's fine with me." Ciel said. "Oh, thank you, Ciel!" I say, running up to him, and hugging him. "Hey! Get off of me!" He yelled. I release and took my sister's hands and ran up the stairs to my room.

"Oh, this is great, Crystal! You can stay!" I yell. "Yay!" She yells along. I stopped abruptly. "Well now…" The door opens, revealing Sebastian. "Oh, Sebastian!" I say. "Sebby!" Crystal yells, running to Sebastian. I held back a laugh. Sebastian gave me a death glare. I sucked in air. Sebastian places a hand on Crystal's head and gets leveled with her.

"I've come to lead you to your room, young miss." Sebastian says kindly. Crystal looked uncertain. "Go on, Crystal. You'll be fine. I'm sure your room is nearby. Here, take Kuroro with you, he'll keep you company." I said, handing her Kuroro. I wanted to take one of the kittens to her, but they were still young yet, so I couldn't.

Sebastian leaves with Crystal and I go over to the window. Pain begins to fill my head. 'It must be the beginning of the side effects of the "war" going through my head.' I thought. I sigh, and sat down in front of the window, staring up at the moon.

A very long time later…

I realized that Sebastian had not come up onto the roof yet, like he normally does every night. I stand up and jumped off, checking the mansion. I go inside, and began searching. I searched the entrance hall, dining room, kitchen, too many hallways, when I was left to check the room with the fire place to keep the mansion warm. Sebastian never told me what it was really called so I just called it the room with the fire place.

I walk to the room and opened it.

To my utter horror, Sebastian was lying dead on the ground, his head separate from his body.
