His Futuristic Kitten (( Rewritten ))

Chapter 5

Ciel and I both watched as the men in the room panicked at what they were hearing on the phone. The two men on the other line were screaming in fear and trying to drive away. I wanted to laugh, because I knew what was happening. Then I realized I would seem sadistic so I kept my laughter to myself. Normally I would, but Ciel kinda needs to think I won't kill him.

Suddenly, the screaming and crashing stopped. "H-hey... What happened?" Azzuro stammered.

Ciel gave a small laugh. "Sounds like your game of fetch failed."

Azzuro came toward Ciel again, and once again I took another beating. Every kick earned either a gasp or a scream. I was breathing heavily and almost unconscious by the time Azzuro finished. When Azzuro walked away Ciel came toward me and tried to keep me awake.

"I... I'm f-fine. Leave me be." I murmured. I slowly sat up and leaned against the wall. "You're lucky I'm here. This wouldn't be any good for you."

Azzuro picked up the phone again and spoke in clear English. "Hey, if you don't answer right now, I swear I'll kill you mongrels!"

A soothing, dark voice came from the other side on the line. "Hello. I represent the Phantomhive estate. Would my master happen to be there?"

Azzuro remained silent and glared back at Ciel and me. "Hello? What's the matter? Hello?" Ciel woofed. I almost burst into laughter.

"Very good, my lord. I'll be there to pick you up momentarily."

Azzuro stood in shock lostening to nothing. Sebastian had cut the line just after saying that final phrase. I sighed in relief. My torture was almost over.

Azzuro looked back at the men in the room. "The Phantomhive guard dog is going to bust in here. Thighten the security gate! Don't even let a singke rat through! Don't let him even step one foot inside!"

Ciel and I waited in silence. I knew it was going to be a blood bath once Sebastian got here. I wish I was down there to see it. It was going to be bad-ass.

We heard gunfire and crashing down below. Azzuro grabbed his gun, terrified. Ciel had a big ol' smirk on his face and here I am still kinda clinging to consciousness.

It went dead quiet. Suddenly, from down the hall, you could hear the clickity clack of boots. Well, they sounded like heels but that's beside the point.

Azzuro gasped as Sebastian quickly and calmly opened the door. I looked at him in shock. He looked so AMAZING. Just like he did in both the anime and manga, but not animated or drawn.

He looked at Ciel and me. He too was full of shock. Most likely to see Ciel with a bleeding almost unconscious woman at his side whom Sebastian did not recognize.

He took a few steps in and bowed. "I have come to retrieve my master."

"Ha! This is a surprise. I was imagining a brawny giant, you're just some milksop in a tailcoat... Who are you? You're not just a butler."

"No, I am merely one hell of a butler... That's all." Sebastian said.

"Oh, really? At any rate, I don't intend to fight you. Or the girl anymore." He glared back at me.

It must've been some sort of signal because one of his men released my ties and threw me toward Sebastian. I didn't make it and ended rollong to a stop in between Azzuro and Sebastian. I groaned. Azzuro walked back over to Ciel and grabbed him by the hair.

"Help me stand, please," I whispered and held my hand out to Sebastian. He took it and helped me stand. "Azzuro. Let the boy go."

"Boy? I thought you worked for the brat!" Azzuro growled.
