CielxAlois a modern AU

"So you're telling me that you believe that whoever wrote this text and sent it to you, was referring to the spider as Alois?" Sebastian wide eyed.

"YES WHY DON'T YOU UNDERSTAND THIS?" I said, getting annoyed of trying to explain the same thing over and over again to a DEMON BUTLER WHO SHOULD KNOW EVERYTHING.

"Well, Alois has a demon butler, he should be protected, this doesn't make sense."

"But, if I do remember your stories correctly, Claude gave up on Alois, to come for me."

"They have a contract though."

"But, he still came for me."

"Fine. I'll consider the trueness of this situation. No matter how or who kidnapped Alois, we still need to find him." Sebastian said, standing up, brushing dust off of his coat and pushing the study chair back.

"Yes, you are not wrong Sebastian. How do we start the search-" I was soon interrupted by a very loud yell from the manor's front doors. I spun around, to face the door.

"OH SEBBBBBBYYYYYYYYY, WE STILL HAVE TO REDEEM TWO DAYS TOGETHER, NOW ISN'T THAT TRUE, MY LITTLE MYSTERIOUS CAT!" 

I don't think I have ever seen Sebastian get angry that quick before.

"WHAT IN GOD'S NAME IS HE DOING HERE?" I yelled directly to Sebastian.

Sebastian nearly shrugged and walked out of the room to greet our UNWELCOME guest.

I sighed, and sat back down in my study chair.

I heard little whispers from Sebastian and Grell.

"Young master?"

Sebastian was right there. I don't remember hearing footsteps, but it didn't matter, he was there.

"Y-Yes?" I said.

"You may want to come take a look at what the red-headed monkey dragged in..." Sebastian said, almost ashamed.

"I HEARD THAT SEBBY I'M ADDING AN EXTRA HOUR TO THE DAYS!" Grell shouted from the lobby.

I stood up, grabbed my walking stick and walked over to the main lobby.

What I saw brought me to my knees.

My heart stopped.

Everything stopped.

The world ended.

My happiness, was already gone, but it disappeared even more.

What even is happiness?

Right there, in Grell's hands. There he was. My one and only. Alois. But not moving... And certainly not clean... 

Blood.

Blood was everywhere.

I screamed.

Sebastian quickly calmed me.

"YOUNG MASTER. THAT ISN'T WHAT YOU THINK."

"Oh no, certainly not." Grell said picking at his blood stained teeth.

All I did was stand up and take a running lunge at Grell.

Grell swiftly dodged it.

Sebastian caught me and restrained me. "WHAT IS HAPPENING." That was all I could say, think.

"YOUNG MASTER. GRELL DIDN'T DO THIS. HE FOUND HIM."

I took one more look at the boy I loved so much only to notice one thing. 

"What's that, written on him? Do you see it?" I pointed, shakily to a large bunch of letters on his neck.

"That my young noble, is a contract." Sebastian said.

"A-A-Another one?"

"No, like the one you got. When you became a demon." Sebastian said emotionless.

"How? Why? Where?" I spun around. "WAIT. A DEMON CAN'T DIE. WHY IS HE DEAD." I started crying harder than I have ever cried before.

"That, young master, is a good question." Sebastian said, pretending like he didn't know.

"SEBASTIAN TELL ME NOW!" 

"That seems like a puzzler to me." Grell said slowly.

I was caught.

In a spider's web.
