Demonic Bet
"Goodbye Ciel." I replied as I took a step back. "Sebastian get him out of here."
I turned and walked toward Dominic. Tears clouded my vision. "Now, now Pet, don't cry." He placed a hand on my back and lead me back to the manor. "You're not going anywhere my dear." I simply nodded. "Welcome to Damnation Manor." As soon as I stepped in the doorway I looked back.
"Goodbye."
I hugged myself as the door shut and lock. I fell to my knees and cried. The only thing I could think was, 'I, Lena Rae Craven, love a human boy named Ciel Phantomhive. But I will never see him again.'

Ciel
I walked into the Undertaker's Parlor with Sebastian and the two other demons. Undertaker was in the middle of working on a coffin. He looked up with a smile but soon the smile disappeared as I assumed he looked at the scythe in the female demon's hands. "Emerald? Where's Lena?" He asked seriously.
"H-he has her. S-she s-stayed with h-him so h-he wouldn't kill us." She broke into tears, her tears were not clear but black. "She t-told me to tell you she loves you and she was s-sorry."
"Dominic." Undertaker growled as he took the scythe from her hands.
"Phantomhive." The male demon said in a low voice. "She didn't do it for us. She did it for him. She fancies him." His eyes seemed to glow in anger as he glared at me. "This is your fault!"
"Remington!" Undertaker yelled. "Calm down. It's not all his fault."
"Undertaker what can we do?" I asked. "I can't stand the thought of losing her. I...can't describe how much I want her in my life."
He started laughing like a psychopath. "Dominic is going to die for taking my daughter."
(Lena)
"Come now Pet, you have to eat something." Dominic purred as he held a spoon to my lips. "I don't want you to starve." I only stared at him and rolled my eyes. "Now, don't tell me you're mad at me." I went to talk but he shoved the spoon in my mouth. I choked slightly on the warm soup. "Was that so hard?"
"Bastard." I coughed.
"Now, now be nice." I didn't reply. "You'll grow to like it here Pet."
"I wanna go home! I will never like it here! Nor will I ever love you!"
He pulled the chain that connected me to the bed. Once I got close enough he grabbed my chin. "You will learn, even if I have to make you." I spit in his face and instantly felt a stinging sensation on my cheek. "You're asking for me to kill you!" He growled. With that he stood up and left.
I let the tears fall as soon as I couldn't his footsteps. I wanted my dad, William, and Grell. I wanted Ciel. Hell I even wanted Sebastian. "Someone, anyone help me. I want to go home."

Undertaker seemed to get more serious as we got closer. 'Of course he is, she's his daughter.' I thought.
"Undertaker how do you intend to beat him." Sebastian asked as he ran beside him with me in his arms.
"Dominic loves to bet. That's how I will win." He said sternly.
Emerald growled as the village was in sight and we stopped. "I'm going to rip his throat out."
"Emerald remember the plan."
She sighed. "Right."
"Don't worry Love, I'll rip his throat out for you." Remington said.

Dominic shoved me back onto the bed and growled. "I'm getting nowhere with you. I've done everything to show you how much I care for you, except one thing that you're to pure for yet!"
I looked down at my beaten, bloody body. "Do these bruises count as caring?" I growled.
He grabbed my face and pulled my closer to his own. "Watch your tone!"
"Does the abuse count? The verbal threats?" Skin hit skin and the force threw me backward. "Is this caring for someone? Because if it is then everything I've learned has been a lie!" He slapped me again. "My father forcing my mother to leave him because he cared for her!" He grabbed my hair and pulled me to the floor. "How Emerald cares for Remington no matter how childish he gets!" He kicked me in the stomach until I coughed up blood. "How I care about...... Ciel even though I know......his soul is going to be consumed by......Sebastian...... one day!"
He kicked me harder but I hardly felt it anymore. "Shut up!"
"How about....you....and how... you cared for Eliza!"
Suddenly he stopped and grabbed me by the neck. "Say one more word and I'll kill you."
"Word." I said.
He squeezed my neck and growled. "I've had it with you!" He squeezed harder until black spots dance across my vision. Suddenly he stopped and threw me against a wall. "I'll deal with you later, we have company."
'Father.' I thought.
He picked me up and set me back on the bed. Then he secured the chains around my ankles and wrist so I couldn't get off the bed. He chuckled. "Stay put, Pet."
I yelled out in anger as he slammed the door then closed my eyes. A single tear slipped down my pale cheek. I couldn't cry anymore. That was my last tear. Slowly I let darkness consume me as I finally felt the pain.

"What about the barrier?" Emerald ask.
"My scythe can break through it." Undertaker said as he brought his scythe over his head. When he brought it down there was a large cracking noise and then a unholy scream that caused me to cover my ears and stumble backward.
"What the hell was that!" I yelled.
"Demons that my father killed and somehow got a hold of their souls." Emerald said sternly.
"Now to let ourselves in." Undertaker stated as he swung his scythe again and broke down the door. We all slipped inside and saw him. Undertaker growled. "Where is she Dominic?"
"Whoever are you talking about, Craven?"
"Where is Lena? Tell me!"
"Oh, she's resting peacefully at the moment." He smirked. "Do you want her back? How do you plan on getting her back?" Undertaker glanced at me and nodded slightly. "The Shrimp, how do you plan to use him. He's worthless."
I cleared my throat. "We wish to make a bet." I stated.
He seemed to be interested. "I'm listening." He purred.
"Emerald and myself look for Lena, while you get to fight Undertaker, Sebastian, and Remington. If we win you let us all leave and never bother any of us ever again."
"But what if I win?"
"You get the pleasure of killing us all."
"I won't make it easy for you boy. I do have servants that follow me blindly. You'll have to face them to get to Lena."
"Is that a challenge, father?" Emerald growled.
"It's a precaution."
"We can handle it. Do we have a bet?" She asked.
"A demonic bet."
