Sebastian's POV


That Claude was indeed becoming a thorn in my side. How dare he put his disgusting fingers on my precious soul. I don't know what makes him think, I would like to share my meal. He doesn't see me trying to steal his dinner from him. Some demons were just raised without manners, I must remember. I must search high and low for young master, before my time runs out. Once I have Claude in my sights, I'll be sure to keep my promise about ripping his arms from his body. Hopefully Master will be able to hold his own for a while.

I started my search inside the manor first, before I ventured outside. I'm running at top speed, rushing in and out of rooms. I turned each room inside out looking for, young master. I would have to clean all of this later, that would be an extra limb for Claude, for creating work for me. I looked at my pocket watch. I had already lost 5 minutes, with 15 left. I must hurry, master's life depends on it. Even though I highly doubt he will kill Ciel anyway, I don't want to take the chance.

I hurried through the rest of the house trying to move as swiftly as possible. I hurried outside having 10 minutes remaining. Claude was really exercising my legs, this evening. I step outside, and stepped slightly to the side, to avoid the spear being propelled toward my head. How delightful of Claude to invite guests to make this little affair even more enjoyable. The triplets surrounded me, each armed with a different weapon. Well if nothing else at least they won't talk as much as Claude.


Alois's POV


Where the hell was Claude?! He was suppose to be just checking on Ciel and Sebastian. They were both tied up and beaten for Christ sake! The party would be ending soon, and Claude was our driver. I'll make sure to punish him thoroughly for making me wait and look bad. I will not sit here and stare like some damn orphan waiting for someone to come get me. I didn't even do that when I was an actually fucking orphan. "Alois, do want me to call one of my drivers to come get us." Elizabeth asked. "Oh, no please. I'm sure Claude is on his way, just a moment more please." I said, with a sweet little smile. I had grown so tired of putting on smiles tonight.

If I smiled one more time tonight my face would split in half. "I do hope he is alright, I hope there was no sort of accident." Ms. Paula said. Oh there will be when I get my hands on him. "Oh no I'm sure he's fine, if he isn't here in 10 minutes, I will call Hannah to come drive you all home. What kind of gentleman would I be if I didn't take you lovely ladies home?" I said. I smiled once again. Someone would be paying for all my smiling tonight. Claude had better not have let them escape either. I have more plans for Ciel and his butler. Claude better serve me without fail, like he promised.


Claude's POV


I threw the brat in the corner of the room I was hiding in. I put him under a sleep spell, so he should be out for a while. I should have did that in begin with. I wouldn't be going through this foolishness. I stared at a clock on the wall, I had been gone from the ball for about an hour and forty five minutes. Alois would be most upset at my tardiness. It's nothing I haven't seen before, that little brat was always upset about something or another. I hated children with the utmost disdain. Of all humans they were the most obnoxious. Always crying and sniveling to get their way, not wanting to wait or work for anything. After I take Alois's soul I would make sure to burn his body, and save the ashes. To remember all the suffering I endure, with this deranged child.

I would have to say, I would have preferred Alois to have been a normal child. With regular foolish and childish desires. I hated Alois's and Ciel's character, thinking they were adults. Superior to everyone, not even being eye level to the shortest of adults. Using people and saying things like they owned the world and everyone in it. When without I or Sebastian they would most definitely be dead. The souls are barely worth a torture such as this. I would make sure to contract with an adult next time around. If I would even at all. I really hated the human world, I wanted to go home more than anything.

I will admit there are some humans, that are tolerable. My thoughts suddenly flashed to . I had been thinking of her so much lately, it was sicken. As a human, a woman no less, she had nothing to offer me. Although I was less annoyed by the human world in her presents. Maybe it was her simple desires to be flattered and loved. It was nice to be able to carry out someone's will without, running around killing people and causing misery. Now don't misjudge that statement, I thoroughly enjoying causing death and pain. Especially to humans. Her wishes were just easier to fulfill. Even though she was a tad stupid and naive, she made a wonderful play thing.

She was like a new born dog, a puppy, I believe they are called. Eager to get into everything, not pondering the consequences. I had spoke and interacted with five times, and she let me fondle her and kiss her. Even if I wasn't demon, this type of behavior is quite wreck less. I don't understand the woman of this world and age. They are retarded at best. Especially that Elizabeth girl, I hate her most of all. Crying and whining about Ciel, it's no wonder Alois is easily seducing her. Ciel is a self-obsessed, narcissistic, tyrant. With hopes and ambitions that don't include running after a little blond girl. In my opinions she should cut her ties with Ciel and find someone who can mindlessly pine over her, like she wants from Ciel.

He's going to die soon anyway, I'm sure Sebastian is trying to speed up his soul eating process. What, will mourned over his death for the rest of her life? Pathetic. I hope Alois doesn't plan on keeping her, once he steals her from Ciel. I will kill them both in their sleep, regardless of any contract. One blond idiot is enough. I would keep as very obedient servant wife, however. At the end of the day, I will let Alois die a painful, slow death before I risk my life to save his.


Sebastian POV


I made quick work of the triplets and made sure to subdue them , to prevent any other surprise attacks. That damned Claude never played fair. Nevertheless I was up to any challenge. I now had six minutes and forty seconds to find Ciel, before Claude acted on his promise of killing him. I hurried and looked all over the garden and in half of the forest by the manor. I was getting very frustrated indeed. All this running and searching is unnecessary, and utterly stupid. Claude is such a spineless little weakling. He would rather hide and take hostages, than fight me face to face like a man. I'm even still slightly wounded, yet he still runs. He didn't deserve the title of being called a demon. He was no different from a human. Running and hiding, when scared.

I don't have time for his type. I'm better than him, and I will show it by beating him at his little games. I had 2 minutes left. I was starting to run out of areas that hadn't been check. I was starting to believe that Claude wasn't here. That he had given me an impossible task, that he knew I couldn't complete. Just when I was about to throw in the towel, so to speak, I had an idea. I tapped my foot three times and fell at least 7 feet into the ground. I had noticed there were multiple tunnels down here. They look like they had been here for a while. I would have to remember to have Finny dismantle them all. I followed the tunnel routes, at top speed, as I had thirty seconds left.

I had finally approached a door, I kicked it in quickly. I was greeted by the face of my good friend Claude and my master folded up in the corner. I had rose to Claude's challenge and with 5 seconds to spare I might add. I will go for 10 next time. But, I highly doubt there will be a next time for Claude, when I'm finished with him. "Claude, I hope you enjoyed that kiss from , because you won't be getting another." I said, getting in the appropriate fighting stance. "You need to be worried about your own affairs Sebastian. Once I'm finished with you, I'll have two souls to eat!" Claude said, squaring off with me. One of us would not be leaving this room.
