Hello Again (Undertaker x reader)

62. Track of souls

No one of the demons expected this to happen. The spider butler coughed up blood, before turning around. In disbelieve, he stared at the three demon servants, all holding a weapon in their hand.

"What is the meaning of this?"

Sebastian smiled deviously, knowing exactly what is going on, while Claude was lurking in the dark. It is not like the demons could beat Faustus in a fight, but it seem that they don't seem to mind that...or aren't capable of doing so. They were slashed into pieces before they even knew what hit them. Claude, not pleased by this waste of time, faced the butler on the wall, "having fun Michaelis?"

Sebastian chuckled with delight, "Of course, I never expected you to use them for your sick desires."

Claude didn't understand his words. It didn't take long, till a deep and crazy laughter filled the room. The spider butler followed the sound, seeing a presence in the doorway. He never thought that he would see someone like him in such a place like the Trancy manor.

"A reaper?"

Undertaker chuckled, "No, the poor old mortician from next door sir. I have come to collect my precious doll."

"Don't you mean dolls? There already in pieces!"

Sebastian, still pinned against the wall, expected an answer from the mortician, but never received one. The spider butler backed off, leaving the two on their own, for Sebastian a bad sign. He demanded the Undertaker to get him off the wall, but what he received first, came out of the blue. Undertaker's scythe went right through Sebastian's gut, revealing his cinematic record. The demon hissed at the sudden approach, "Was that necessary?"

"It's just a check up, in case you done something inappropriate with my darling wife."

Sebastian was close to comment it, till the scythe went further into his gut, "And this was just for fun."

The demon spat, "Very funny you sick old reaper."

Instead of feeling offended, he grinned creepy, "N/A loves that side of me, so no hard feelings."

Sebastian could hardly hold himself, once he was released from his misery. Slowly, he dropped to the ground, leaving a long line of blood against the wall, although, for a demon it is not a major injury. His wounds were healed in a few minutes, but the thirst remained. Undertaker warned him to stay as far away from me now, knowing how unpredictable demons are when it comes to such hunger. The demon suppressed the urge, "I got other things to think about, like my master."

"Ah yes, he is here too."

"How do you know?!"

Undertaker placed a finger against his lips, "That is a secret. So where did N/A go?"

"She went with that brat Trancy somewhere."

The reaper laughed hysterical, once Sebastian said he couldn't find me in place, "Of all creatures that could track her down, demons are experts in that department."

Sebastian glared at him, "What are you saying?"

"I am saying, that you can be quite handy just now...my little blood hound."

"I am no dog!"

Undertaker chuckled at the outburst, "Hit a vein there didn't I?"

Instead of a fight, Sebastian gave in; sniffing the air like these animals he hates so much. Indeed, he could smell it, the faint but clear smell of my soul. Tracy's soul seems to be far away, unlike his masters, his soul was near mine. The demon growled at the scent of another demon near, "This way!"

"Good doggy"

"Don't call me that!"

Undertaker suppressed his laugh, "I couldn't resist."

While they had their fun, one more than the other, I was still stuck in that stupid game from Alois.

The labyrinth has suddenly got smaller. The path got thinner, which made me panic. Running, with no plan where to, I find myself in a clear field. It was disturbing, one moment in a maze, the next on a field. The walls of the labyrinth were too far off, but still I was able to see it, as well as that it gave me nowhere to go to anymore...I was trapped.

"Hush, hush, my darling girl..."

"Who is there?!"

The voice came out of nowhere, but sounded close...too close.

"You look tired dear."

"Show yourself!"

"I shall..." said the female voice, appearing before me in a different outfit than the clothes she had on before. It was Hannah, he eyes turned back to the purple glowing color I feared back then. With a blink of an eve, she suddenly stops right before me. My mind couldn't understand this sudden move, as well as the next. She placed her hand before my eyes, blocking my sight. Suddenly, I was out cold. While this all happened, Claude got his hand s on Alois, who was wondering through the forest. Undertaker and Sebastian were already at the giant maze, but the sudden scent of my soul had moved. Sebastian announced that it was right up that tower. Naturally, for them an easy task to get there with a few jumps.

But what awaits them, was nothing they expected to see.

Undertaker saw Hannah standing nearby, while Ciel and I were leaning back to back against another on the ground, not moving an inch. Sebastian noticed that a third presence was there. The spider butler was also coming from the shadows, standing beside the female demon. But this present wasn't him that Sebastian could feel, it was a human soul. Through the light of the moon, he could see the golden ring on Ciel's finger. Now it was all clear to him. Undertaker came forward, while his aura turned to a bright green. Hannah's eyes widened, "A reaper, but why?" Claude explained it in one sentence at who are they up against. She grinned deviously, "A reaper and a human....how interesting."

"I hate to interrupt, but I want to take my master home now."

Sebastian got closer to us, as Claude blocked his way. Both demons growled at another, while Hannah stepped forward, "If you want this boy, then you have to fight for their souls, in a death match."
