The Fight at Dawn

After a while of constantly waiting, the sun went down, and Claude invited them into the living room where Alois was waiting to fight Ciel. The two nobles looked at each other across the room, their glares combining in an electric pulse of anger, while everyone else just stood on the sidelines, including Claude.

Lizzy's hands clasped together, probably praying that Ciel would win... After all, it was a fight over her.

Claude crept calmly over to Ciel, bending down on one knee, as he gave him his sword and he responded by ripping it deviously out of his hand by the hilt of course. He didn't want his blood drawn before the fight began.

Alois looked at Ciel, "It will be the same as it was before?" he played with the sharpness of his own deadly weapon.

Ciel's eyes rolled, "As you wish..."

He walked over and the two boys stood back to back. Alois looked towards the back of Ciel's head, laughing, "I hope you realize that if you lose, you won't have your butler to heal your wounds and save you."

"I don't care... I can heal myself."

The two opposites looked forward again, yelling the same words at the same time, "Allez!" They began to walk forward counting to ten.

Ciel, however hated waiting and when he got to five he turned around. Alois looked at him with a frown, lunging towards him with his sword. "Why must you always cheat!"

Ciel's sword only collided with his in a clang and Elizabeth closed her eyes tightly. She loved Ciel and couldn't bare to see him get hurt. It was also very clear that Alois has gotten faster and swifter in his moves. Ciel could barely keep up, but he trudged on with the fight.

When they made it to the staircase, Alois kicked him into the stairs, watched as Ciel grunted in pain, and laughed, "This... is... fun! I've waited for a rematch duel for a long time!"

Alois stepped on his stomach, making him choke on blood, when his shoe dug into him. Ciel's eyebrow only tightened more, ignoring the taste of his metallic blood in his mouth, "So have I!"

He grabbed Alois' expensive shoe and thrust it out of the way, by making Alois fall on his tiled, marble floor, and Ciel picked up his heavy sword that glinted off the fluorescent lights. "But, you will never win!"

The young Phantomhive walked over to the blond boy who struggled to sit up, even though, his back ached. His bones vibrating with the impact. A sword came in contact with his chest, beginning to dig into it just as much as his shoe dug into his stomach. Alois grabbed the swords sharp edge, blood slipping from his fingers.

Alois' hands tried to push the sword up, but Ciel kept trying to push it down further. His wrist cracked...The sword went upwards away from Alois' chest.

Lizzy looked away from the two, her eyes closing tightly, as her hand flew to her mouth. Her brother looked at her, putting his arm around her, tried to comfort her. If he knew anything about his sister, it was the fact that she feared seeing the blood of people she cared about. Her mind speaking of things that didn't have much hope for Ciel, while her tears continued to fall.

The young demon, who was absolutely positive would win, widened his eyes and the sword was flung out of his reach. But, Alois had dropped his sword when Ciel threw him. A thought crossed his mind, maybe he could get to Alois' sword before he could and kill him!

He leaned over Alois, tried his best to pick it up, but Alois' hand touched his. "Get your own sword!"

A tug of war fight between them and the sword broke out, "Give it!"

"No! It's mine! Get your own!"

Ciel pulled tighter, a grin displayed over his face full of rage, as he let go, quickly. The sword flew onto Alois as it scraped his chin and tried to pick it up, while Ciel rushed over to grab his, making it over to Alois just it time to almost stab him if it wasn't for Alois deflecting his shot.

"Just face it, Phantomhive, you'll never win!"

Ciel gritted his teeth, his eyes taking on a pinkish red veil, as his demon eyes finally kicked in. His rage hit a deadly high rate, something Sebastian told him to watch out for. A husky growl shot out from Ciel's vocal chords as he rushed over to Alois so fast, the taller noble with the fair hair didn't know what to do. He didn't even have time to think his next move or even blink for that matter as he screamed with such pain, nobody knew what happened at first, until he backed away with blood splattered all over his ensemble.

Lizzy ran over to him, "Ciel? Are you okay?"

He looked at her, then at Alois who was bleeding very badly from the stomach. Ciel heaved out such heavy breaths, Lizzy wasn't sure if it was out of anger or exhaustion.

Tears escaped Alois' eyes as he reached for Claude, "Claude! Help..." Blood seeped from his mouth, "Please... help me... That is an..." he choked on the many blood-cells as it splattered out of his mouth, "Order..."

Claude ran over to his master and sat by his side. He looked at Ciel and the Middlefords. "I want you all to leave... and never come back. Ever!"

Ciel nodded and led Lizzy out of Trancy's Mansion.
