    "Why the bloody hell didn't it work!?" Ciel asked angrily. Halona shook her head.

    "I. . . I don't know. I swear I did everything right!" Ciel scoffed and crossed his little arms.

    "Well apparently not! Ugh, if Sebastian were to see me like this." His eyes widened.

    "You have to change me back now I can not allow that damned butler to see me in this state!" He yelled. As if on cue, a knock was heard from the door. Halona stood in front of the chair Ciel's human body slumped in. Halona quickly hid the possessed doll behind her also. Sebastian poked his head in and smiled.

    "Ah! Miss Halona! Have you seen my young master?" He asked. The girl froze.

   "Uh. . . I think he went to the restroom. Other than that I don't know where he ran off to." She said nervously. The demon butler frowned.

    "Oh, well thank you for your help. If you seem him tell him his dancing lesson will begin in an hour." Halona quickly nodded.

    "Sure thing Bassy!"She said. The way she said his name sent shivers down his back. Once he left, the doll and the girl let out a breath they did not know they were holding.

    "That was close." Muttered the girl.

    "Too close." Agreed Ciel. Awkward silence filled the atmosphere. Suddenly Ciel remembered why he was hiding from the butler in the first place.

    "HURRY UP AND BLOODY CHANGE ME BACK!" He yelled. Halona sushed him and put a finger over his small mouth.

    "Shut up! Okay, I'll figure out a way okay! But I can't do it with you yelling at me." She told him harshly. Ciel huffed and crossed his arms.

    "Fine. Just what do you plan to do?" Halona stood back and thought for a second.

    "I probably pronounced a word wrong. I have Undertaker's book of spells in my room. If we can get to it in time I should be able to change you back." She said.

    "Great. But what are we going to do about me?" He asked, mentioning towards his soulless body. Halona face palmed.

    "Shit. Uh. . . Here, we'll hide you in the closet." She said. The girl walked over to his body, and pushed the chair swiftly into the large closet.

    "There." She said proudly. Ciel didn't like the idea of his body being shoved in the closet but they were running out of time.

"Let's go." She said. Swooping the doll into her arms.







    "Ow! You're squishing me!" Ciel complained. Halona simply shushed him and continued walking down the halls. Somehow they managed to get to her room without incident. They rushed inside and shut the door.

    "Phew." Said the girl. Gently she placed him on the floor. Suddenly he was attacked by a certain feline. Ciel screamed at a pitch she didn't know he could reach.

    "Felicia!" Halona yelled, yanking the growling cat off the doll.

    "Bad kitty! That's Ciel! Don't do that to him!" The kitten looked at its owner as if to say 'what the fuck'. Halona put down the cat and opened her bed. Ciel gave her a confused look.

    "Why did you move that wardrobe on the ground?" He asked bluntly.

    "It's similar to my coffin." She answered. Ciel shook his tiny head.

    "You really are like Undertaker. Tell me, why do you call him papa? I find it hard to believe you are really his daughter." Halona stopped and sighed.
