((This chapter has nothing to do with any episodes its something i came up with with help from my friend))

I sat in the prison chained to a wall by my foot crying silently. I did what i had to, the second Claude was dead i felt free. I killed him I killed Claude. When i did i should have known Lazarus our council leader and head elder would know. Being the first demon to exist as well as his wife Athelia, he would have a connection to all the demons existing.

"Selcura, you have a visitor" barked the guard, i stood up glancing at the door. It opened and i saw my brother "Sebastian!" i tried to go forwards but the chain stopped me "are you alright? i got a letter saying you were imprisoned" Sebastian asked looking me over for any wounds "i am" i shakily told him trying to keep from crying "what's wrong?" he tilted his head "i'm being given a trial i killed Claude!" i started sobbing again, i noticed him look down at my hand and saw the ring was gone.

"how did you do it?" "while you were fighting Claude he was too distracted i used the demon sword to kill him from behind" i explained to him, i stared at him "i need to know, what do you think of Ayden?" i saw Sebastian's eyes glow "you two could have told me sooner instead of keeping it a secret, to me that's suspicious in itself" Sebastian turned away and glared at the wall.

"i'm sorry i kept Ayden from you brother, but i knew how you would have reacted, you'd try to kill him, you'd forbid me from seeing him i could go on forever you know" i huffed "OK times up!" i growled mentally at the guard "Lord Lazarus wants me to be beside you tomorrow, don't forget i love you sister" I nodded "i love you too brother" 

I watched as he was forced to go and suddenly my heart grew cold with regret,guilt and loneliness. The next day i was led to the council chambers where Grell was looking down being pathetic. Did he think his act would make Lazarus go easy on him? "Sebastian could you come up here please?" Lazarus asked from his throne, There was three demons each at both his sides. Lazarus quietly told something to my brother but i made out the words "do not say anything"

Lazarus from how i saw him now he had dark purple hair tied up in a leather band, his one bang off to the side reminding me of Canterbury. His eyes were crimson and he wore robes of ancient nobility. Lazarus can make a fearless demon quake in his shoes. "Selcura Michaelis please rise" i rose eyes closed like i was admitting defeat "Lady Selcura, you are hereby charged with the murder of Claude Faustus a rank 2 demon how do you plead?" i winced at Lazarus's powerful voice "i plead i'm inno.." he held up a hand interrupting me "i guess i shouldn't have asked, Selcura Michaelis you will be put to death for what you have done, as for you Grell Sutcliff, i cannot kill you due to you being  a reaper but i can have you imprisoned and tortured to a weakened state for the rest of your days" Grell started to cry like an idiot "just please don't hurt the face" he bawled out which earned him a backhand from a guard.

Two guards grabbed me as i struggled to get free "brother!" i yelled out eyes wide and tears falling from them. Sebastian was also held back as he looked away from me. I was forced down onto my knees crying loudly as everyone watched my execution. The demon sword Laevateinn was raised while the hairs on my neck was removed. Just before the sword could be brought down to behead me the doors of the council room were opened "Hold it right there!" i knew the voice it was Ayden! Ayden's come to save me "what is the meaning of this?!? you better have a good reason to interrupt this execution who are you anyway!?!" Lazarus stood up from his throne glaring at Ayden. With him was William T Spears and Ronald Knox

"I have proof that Selcura is innocent! As for who i am, my name is Ayden Delcour" Ayden glared at the ancient demon in defiance, Lazarus looked over to his left to the ginger haired demon "oh, this is your son Alexon" Lazarus sneered voice dripping with disdain "um, y-y-es" Alexon shrank back in his throne "well what is this proof you speak of?" "i have this" Ayden threw a small leather pouch at Lazarus who caught it as it flew passed his head.
