"Here we are Ciel, you'll finally be mine" Alois stated as he sat on top of Ciel. He held his sword to Ciel's neck. "Sebastian wants so very badly to devour your soul, but he won't get to" Alois said. "Because you see, I'm going to tear your soul to shreds and feed it to the spiders of my mansion" He explained. "Poor thing, I know it's going to irritate him terribly" He finished saying. Alois then started chuckling. "This is going to be a lot of fun" He added.
"The soul of the Queen's guard dog isn't so cheap that a trifling little spider can afford a taste" Ciel stated. "But if you don't mind having your legs ripped off, then by all means go ahead and try" He said. "I see you've still got the energy to be cheeky" Alois stated. He took his sword away from Ciel's neck and pointed it towards his heart as he held it with one hand. "It's useless struggling, just give up and submit to me" Alois said.
Ryoba stood behind Alois as Ciel held onto the blade with his hand. "That should be enough master" She said. "Submit? I'm the one who has you" Ciel stated. Blood started quickly pouring out of his hand. The Head Maid grabbed onto the blade stopping it from piercing Ciel further. The boy gave up and let go of the sword in pain. Ryoba's blood dripped onto Ciel's clothes. She grabbed the sword throwing it across the room.
Ciel took advantage of the situation grabbing onto his sword to stab Alois, he ended up being successful. Ryoba didn't have time to react fast enough causing the blade to sink into Alois' flesh. The double doors then opened up behind Alois. "Master!" Sebastian yelled out. Alois shook realizing the sword stabbed him. He got up causing the sword to come out from his side, his wound started bleeding. "It hurts!" Alois yelled out.
"Please help me! Help me Claude! Help me I'm dying!" Alois yelled out. "Ryoba is useless.. she couldn't protect me Claude!" He added. She let go of the sword, blood dripped from both of her hands onto the floor. "Yes your high-" Claude said. "Stay back Sebastian!" Ciel yelled. "Until I've killed him, stay back!" Ciel demanded. "Very good, my young lord" Sebastian said. He looked over at the maid. He took a cloth from his uniform pocket and helped her wipe her hands. "Die Alois trancy" Ciel said while pointing his sword at Alois.
"Wait please, I don't want to die!" Alois exclaimed.
"It hurts... spare me, Ciel!" He pleaded. "You are truly pathetic Alois, you killed my parents and you want me to spare you?!" Ciel exclaimed angered by the audacity Alois had. "Wait no, listen to me you don't understand. You're being tricked by a demon. I'm telling you, believe me" Alois stated while tears formed on his face. "Demon?" Ciel questioned. "My parents were killed too, you know" Alois said.
"My family was burned to death along with the whole village!" Alois explained. "Someone stole them from me!" He exclaimed. "Can't you see that we're basically the same?" He asked. "I promise I won't bother you anymore, I apologize for everything! So... So... please spare my life!" Alois said. "Hm" Ciel laughed. "You have two demons by your side and you're still pathetic" He added. "Alois.. you have damaged my pride, and now you'll atone with your death" Ciel said while aiming to kill Alois.
"Please hurry Claude, help me!" Alois called out. Claude grabbed onto the sword right before it made contact with his master. "You saved me.." Alois said with a smile. "Let go, bastard!" Ciel demanded. "Young master!" Sebastian exclaimed. Ciel then smacked Claude on the face with his bloodied hand. Sebastian dashed towards Ciel and grabbed him. He turned back to look at Claude. Some of Ciel's blood dripped down towards Claude's lips. He licked it taking in it's unique flavor. Claude's eyes flashed fuchsia as he seemed to be in a daze.
"It's not over" Ciel exclaimed.
"I'll kill you!" Ciel yelled. "Given the current circumstances, I cannot allow this dance to continue" Sebastian stated. "I'm terribly sorry but I believe we must excuse ourselves for today" Sebastian said. Ryoba bowed at Sebastian and Ciel while still holding onto the cloth Sebastian gave her. "Do you hear me, Claude?" Sebastian asked. "Oh yes, of course" Claude responded. "I understand, another time then" He said. "My lord if I may be of assistance" She said. "Follow me". Ryoba led Lord Phantomhive and his butler towards the entrance.
She grabbed bandages from the nearby storage room that had all the medical supplies among other things. "Put me down, Sebastian" She heard Ciel demand from the entrance. Ryoba came back out and approached the young earl. She kneeled down in front of him gently holding his hand and tending to his wound. She wiped his hand clean of blood. "My master is most likely upset. It was very nice tending to you again my lord" She smiled. "I hope to see you once more but for now I wish you a safe trip back to your estate" She stood up and bowed.
"Master I suggest we'd be on our way" Sebastian said.
"It was a pleasure Sebastian" Ryoba added with a weak smile. "Likewise" He said. "Keep in mind what I said earlier Ryoba" Ciel said. "First you run off on your own, then get yourself hurt. I'm positively at my wits with you" Sebastian said to Ciel as the pair turned towards the door and left. She sighed. She reached into her pocket feeling the bloodied cloth. How long has it been since she has experienced kindness or have been told she has a choice. She chuckled shaking her head. "What an interesting pair" She mumbled.
