His fox, Showtime

His Fox, Drowsy

"What is it?" Ashi was stony and cold as he addressed a man before him. "Well... I want you to join the circus. And work for me." "Work for you? Ha." Ashi gave a sinister chuckle, "You expect me, a powerful demon, to help you and join a boring circus? You really are pitiful."

Ashi was in the arms of Joker who sat there as the pain continued to dull his senses, "Are you alright?" Ashi seemed to be relaxing, the pain only easing off enough for him to move around. Joker watched as Ashi slowly stood up, getting his cloak, "I think so... for now. Why are we going to your fathers?" Joker seemed quiet as he gently told the male walking with him, "He should be able to ease whatever is happening, besides... I want you to go." Ashi nodded his head, as he felt Joker tighten the clasp on the cloak, "Okay..."

"You can bring something if you want, maybe the book and some photos. " Ashi walked over to the small trunk he was given before gathering some clothes. Ashi walked towards the nightstand near his bed and gently lifted the books and placed it into his bag. Ashi then walked to the photos and sat down to look at them.

(This is when you, Lovely reader, get to choose if Yoshi will place the photos with him! It might affect this story! Please leave a comment on if you have chosen to place them or not.)

A little bit later:

"Fox!" Ashi looked surprised at the young girl entering his room, "What are you doing up so late?" Doll looked at him with tears, "Y... You said no." Ashi sighed before gently pulling the girl to his chest, "I promise... I will always look after you. Even if I don't join your 'circus'." Beast looked at the two from a small distance as Joker looked upset.

End of memory:

Ashi had finished packing and was following Joker outside, "Joker. Fox." Joker paused and turned around, Ashi turned as well seeing Beast in a rather tight jacket.

"What's wrong? Can't 'ee sleep?" Ashi was out of it drawing his cloak around him and the bag he was carrying. Joker grew quiet as Beast looked down, "Let's stop this. We have the circus. I know we can make a living! So let's wash our hands of this and run someplace where Father can't touch us!" Beast walked towards the two as Joker sighed, "'Over the hills and far away,' eh? We can't. And I ain't got no time to talk about it. Come on Fox." Ashi nodded his head as he made a grimace of pain, "Mm." Ashi started to walk with him before Beast hugged Joker, "Wait!" Joker froze before sighing, "'Ee alright? This ain't like 'ee. Didn't we decide together?" Beast tightened her hold on him before Ashi only stayed quiet as he only barely listened, the throbbing starting again, "We said we'd do whatever it takes to protect what's dear to us." Beast sounded like she was crying, "But... I can't stand to watch you suffer anymore! Because I-!"

"Hast 'ee forgotten?! We can't go back now." Joker had grabbed her arms before she was silent trying not to cry. Joker looked at her before softly smiling and placing his scarf around her, "The night air's bad for 'ee." Beast looked upset as she looked at them, "Joker..." Ashi walked over and kissed her head gently while Beast looked guilty, "Take care." Joker nodded as he lightly grabbed Ashi's hand, "Good night. Come on, Fox."

"Right." Ashi walked off with him as Beast held the scarf and her head crying.

Memory:

"You're really getting on my nerves, Human." Ashi growled distastefully at one of the male's servants.

"I-I a-apo-pologize!" Ashi smirked at his expression of fear, "Mm? Do you really?" The coward of a servant nodded as he shivered, "Y-Yes sir!" Ashi snarled his claws showing with his threats, "Refer to me as I am you insolent being!" The servant was picked up bu the collar as he shouted terrified, "Y-Yes Demon!"

"Fox?" Ashi was about to attack the servant before Freckles walked over, "Hmm? Why are you in here little Freckles?" Beast was hiding in the hall, as she was shocked at how he suddenly calmed down and knelt down to Freckles. Ashi was actually letting the terrified and lucky servant enough space to flee, "I wanted to see you!"

"Did you now?" Ashi gave a smile as he chuckled and picked her up causing her to laugh, "Come on little miss Beast, you can join."

End of memory:

Joker was riding a horse as Ashi was sitting behind him, "We'll be there soon." Joker could feel Ashi's grip tighten some around his waist as he hummed, "Alright, Joker." Ashi's head was rested against Joker's back, as Joker road through the town. Ashi just quietly hugged onto Joker as he felt his eyes drifting close. Joker sighed softly as he rode off to the house of their father.

Ciel in the morning:

"Where is Ashi?"

"I'm afraid I do not know Young Master. I believed they have drugged him before forcing him to go somewhere." Ciel frowned before giving a small cough, "Well... We will get him later then. Sebastian, let us go." Sebastian looked angry at the fact of someone stealing Ashi away, as he bowed towards Ciel, "Yes, my lord"

Joker carried the sleeping demon in his arms, inside the large mansion. "Tom, he was a peiper's son, He learned to play when he was young." A young child opened the door for Joker as they entered a room. "And all the songs he knew to play..." Ashi yawned opening his eyes as he looked at Joker. "Joker? Why are... you so... sad?"
