Returning dreams (black butler fanfic book 2)

Chapter 29

( Lucy's pov)

We then proceed to a cave where Sebastian and Claude will battle for Ciel's soul. When we arrive at the cave Sebastian and Claude take the demon sowed out of Hannah. Once she catches her breath she stands up, takes the sword from Sebastian and says. "No human weapon is powerful enough to fatally wound a demon.".

"That said a wound caused by a demon sword will never heal. The damage done by such a blow is permanent." she continues as she throws the sword into the ceiling of the cave. "moral of the story... don't get hit with the demon sword. Trust me it hurts like w bitch." I say.

"And how exactly would you know?" Claude asks. "Hannah here ran it through me when you people were trying to brainwash me." I answer pointing to Hannah. "Then how are you still alive?" Claude asks. "Being a demon of another world really does have its perks." I answer.

"For you two who are demons of this world. There is no hope for your soul if it is pierced by a demon sword. it will be utterly obliterated." Hannah says with a smirk. "Now then..." Hannah continued. "A battle between two demons with a singular sword." Claude says. " A battle with a singular sword for a singular soul." Sebastian says.

"Ok we get it lots of things involved are singular. So can the battle start yet?" I ask not expecting an answer. "You sure want this to be over fast." Hannah says as she turns to face me. "I already know who's going to win so it's not as exciting as the first time I've watched this fight." I say. All but Sebastian look at me confused. Sebastian and I just smirk at each other.

"Back on track." Hannah says. Sebastian and Claude then get into a battle stance, Hannah raises her hand and the battle begins. "Once this is over I'm going to sink my teeth into the young master's soul." Claude says. I laugh to myself just low enough for no one to hear.

Sebastian reaches for the sword Claude then follows his actions. Claude uses his spiderwebs to get the sword. "I'll bite hard, deep, and cruel." Claude says landing with the sword. "Really? again with the pedophile comments?" I say.

Claude then lunges for Sebastian and says "his soul is mine!". Sebastian dodges all of his attacks. Sebastian then gets a hold of the sword jumps in the air and says "a space like this hinders my ability to move freely." he then plunged the sword into the ground and causes the cave to become a larger space.

"Come master." Hannah says grabbing Ciel's body and making her way out of the cave. " nice try Hannah. But guess how's tagging along." I say following her. I try to make my wings appear but they only appear for a moment not giving me enough time to even get off the ground.

That stuff still hasn't worn off? Guess I'm running. I then run off after Hannah. Once Hannah teaches the surface I'm not far behind her. I got out of that cave just in time. There is then a loud crumbling sound and I look over to see Claude and Sebastian coming out of the cave through opening Sebastian made in the cliff.

The sword gets knocked out of his hand and falls back down into the opening. The two of them then go after it. "So you believe you can predict who's going to win?" Hannah says making me turn my attention to her. "I don't 'believe', I know." I say. "And exactly how do you know?" She asks.

I hesitate to answer then say "well your going to die soon anyway so I guess there's no harm in telling you.". I explain to her every thing there is to know about me and this world.

( Sebastian's pov)

The demon sword falls from my grip. Claude and I both dive for it, for the young master's soul. it takes a moment but I soon regain the sword. Claude lands on a piece of rock that then crumbles from under him causing him to fall. I took the opportunity and struck him with the demon sword.

"It's over. your dreams of tearing the young master apart are finished." I say to a dying Claude. "The young master has such a sweet soul." Claude says. My eyes narrow at this comment. "The fight is over. the battle for his worthy soul has finally reached its conclusion." He continued.

"Even as I either away I can smell his rich fragrance." He finishes. "You think I hats the young masters soul? You got it wrong. It's Alois Trancy's soul that trifles with you. " I say. "And you'll die as he intended. Don't you see? You have been under his control this entire time." I continue.

"Alois Trancy... it was him." Claude says s he is cut short due to coughing up blood. "My spectacles." he says. "What?" I say surprised yet confused. "I have a spare in my breast pocket." he informs me. I hesitate but proceed to get his spectacles and place them on his face.

"You understand I have had a very long life as a demon. If Alois Trancy has managed to spice it up a bit... then perhaps I have underestimated his soul. I might have taken great pleasure in tearing it apart piece by piece as well. but now it's over... done." He says.

"You are remarkably talkative, considering the severity of your injury." I say. "Yes but not for long I fear. My end is indeed at hand." he replies. "Well then. Do you have any last words to speak?" I ask. "Yes." he says then adjusts his glasses.

"Passion into insincerity,that's allies into object truth, a stray dog into a boy, that's what makes..... makes a butler." he says as he takes his last breath.

I mKe my way to the top of the cliff. A butler indeed, but who's butler did you die as Claude.
