Yes, My Lord

Chapter One: Tiny Master

When I first saw my new master, I was quite surprised.

I blinked, then looked at him again. He is a small, dirty, battered-looking boy with large blue eyes and bruises all over his fair skin, wearing nothing but an old nightshirt. He stared back at me, his expression one of neither fear nor relief. He just... stares.

"My my..." My morbid, demonic shape slowly shifted into something more human as I took a few steps closer to the cage. "What a tiny little master you are."

The boy just looked at me, his face emotionless. He then said, in a quite pathetic voice, "Please... Get me out..."

My smile widened. I could sense, however weak it was, that the soul inside of this boy was of the highest possible quality. Just the thing I was looking for. "If you wish for me to serve you," I said silkily, "then we must form a contract."

"A... contract..." He was so weak that he didn't even seem to be able to form a question. One of his small hands reached out of the bars, then trembled and fell on top of one of his capture's disembodied arm, making blood splat upon his face.

"Yes," I said, my glowing eyes looking down at his. "If we make this contract, then I will serve you until your wish is fulfilled. And then, after that, your soul will be mine to take." I smiled and kicked away the bloody arm, then picked up his burned, bruised hand. "I will follow you and be faithful to the very end. And all that you desire will become yours."

The boy looked at me, his blue eyes still vacant. He then opened his mouth, took in a raspy breath, and then said, "I... want to... have...revenge."

I leaned down and held out my hand to him, his head turning and staring at it. "I will make sure that those who did this to you, all of them, suffer much more than you have already. And I will personally make sure that you will be able to live to see it." I slowly raise his head to met my eyes. "Do you accept my offer?"

He stared at me, and I could tell that he was actually thinking deeply about my offer. After a minute he licked his lips, then nodded. "I... Agree. You must... Help me until... end."

I put my hand over his right eye, marking our contract. He let out no noise of pain as his eye clouded over, and he stared at me as the bloody tears poured out. "Demon... Don't just stand there... Like an idiot." He held out his arm again, a slight expression of annoyance on his face. "I order you... to me out of here."

I bowed with a smile, knowing that I was to be with this boy for a while to come. And I said the words which sealed our contract, making us bond until the end.

 "Yes, My Lord."
