Sebastian's POV:

I ran outside and around the corner of the Okamo Manor, I felt something I haven't felt before, my hand symbol tingled and glowed light purple as I rounded the corner.

I slowed to a halt and my eyes widened at the sight before me. Claude disappeared as I turned the corner but I saw Ciel, my Ciel, on the ground, blood covered his clothing and he was struggling to breath, I quickly kneeled beside him.

"Ciel, can you hear me?"

He didn't answer.

"Ciel. Come on, wake up, you'll be okay."

No answer, I picked him up and stood, stroking his blue hair. His eyes opened slightly and he wheezed, "Sebastian, I-I love you..." Before his eyes closed and his body went completely limp, for the first time in a long time, tears formed in my eyes. I stood up and held him close to my chest.

"No, no, no, Ciel, don't die, stay alive. You need to be alive, I need you to be alive. Please...you are the only one I fight for...you are my life...I'm sorry I let you die...this violates our contract...and we were supposed to get married, Ciel...please...wake up...come back to me. Don't die...don't say goodbye...I love you with all my heart...with all my life...with everything..." Tears slid down my face and I glowed my eyes fuchsia as I teleported back to the manor. Laying Ciel down on the bed, I walked to the phone and called the servants-who were on vacation, Finny picked up.

"Hello?"

"Yes, Finny I'm sorry to wake you at this hour, but I need you all to come back to the manor at once, I'm afraid there is bad news," I stated clearly, not showing my weakness.,

"Yes Mister Sebastian, we will be there by morning."

I hung up and wiped my face, I knew how those three idiots would react, but, maybe they really are my friends, they never betrayed me once, they always kept me busy yes, but they never let me down completely. I walked back to Ciel and placed the blankets over him, I sat in a chair next to his bed, I swore I could see his small chest rise and fall once or twice, but I didn't get my hopes up, I sat back and closed my eyes; remembering all the times we had together.

Ciel's POV (well, dead Ciel I guess):

I felt limp, life-less, tired. But I kept my eyes opened in the blackness for as long as I could. I felt someone lift me in their arms before I died, I saw Sebastian. Did he hear me? I could barely talk when I said it, I was wheezing and I couldn't see clearly, my abdomen hurt greatly, along with my arm and leg.

I tried moving my arm and failed, I moved my head up and saw my hand chained to a wall. Then, someone opened the door to the dark room, turning on a dim light before closing the door. I heard a deep chuckle, someone's that I recognized instantly.

"Look who it is, Raum. My favorite demon," the voice sounded.

"Eric," I was able to say weakly, before coughing and tasting blood in my mouth.

"Why did you kill Alan? Why did you make me do all this?"

"Make you do this? I didn't make you do anything, I killed Alan because he tried to kill me."

"Alan wouldn't do that."

"Well he did." I coughed again.

"I could end you forever right here, I could take you to Lucifer instead. He won't go as easy on you."

"I. Don't. Care. Let me go," I whimpered softly, as Eric cut my arm with a knife, causing my ears and tail to come out from my demon form. It was a demon weak spot he cut, if it's cut I remember Sebastian saying that it would weaken my powers.

"Tail and Ears? Your demon form is a fucking cat? How pathetic, you brat." Eric cut placed his hand roughly over my abdomen where Claude stabbed me, I gasped at the pain and bit my lip to keep from screaming in pain.

"L-Let G-Go..." I was about to black out again, but something stopped me.

"No. You want to struggle, you'll be going to Lucifer, you can work it out with him. Bratty Bitch of a Demon." Eric mumbled those last five words, though I heard him I let him get away with it. I was too tired, and weak to argue, let alone lift my arm to fight back.

For now, I have to play it safe, but if I'm dead, how Is Eric here? I accidentally said that aloud. "Because a shinigami can go between realms and we can see someone after they die if a demon killed a demon of if they're in Hell, but Alan isn't in Hell, he's in Reaper realm's graveyard. Way more difficult to get into."

I only closed my eyes, and stayed quiet, before blacking out again.
