004 - [VIDEO]

So it seems that a new curse have fallen. Specific are not known, yet.

Regardless, do be careful. I should be careful as well with Jezebel still inside my soul.

[Her eyes widen a little, before a slight frown fall on her face.]

I apologise for that. Especially once Jezebel devours me and take over.

...Please excuse me. [Clicks.]

[If she heard it, she show no sign of it.]

...The name your master gave you will do.

[There's a small snicker from Katsu's end. He might not be a demon from his world, but... oh, it would be funny if he ever found out what he was.]

[ Oh, he hears that snicker which is returned with a raised eyebrow and the coolest smirk.

But back to the matter at hand. ]

Sebastian Michaelis, in servitude to the Earl Ciel Phantomhive who was here in this city but a mere few days ago.

May I have the courtesy of learning both your names as well, since we seem to be becoming so... shall I say... intimately acquainted?

[Sebastian Michaelis. She already knows it's not his real name, but for now, it will do.] Amane Kuzuryu. I am a priestess.

[Oh, are we giving titles now?]

Katsu Aoki. The Messiah and King of Bel.

[Almost there...]

King of Bel... Can't say I'm all too familiar with the title.

[ Small smug smirk here. ]

A pleasure to meet the two of you. Of course, I'd have hoped we met under far more pleasant circumstances.

Still, I will admit that it is a welcome thought to think there are others such as myself here.

It would normally be better under more ideal circumstances.

No longer thinking you're the only demon here?

Essentially, it's the king of demons in my world.

[He stops outside the doors to the dorm, waiting and watching.]

Impressive, considering the city manages to pull anyone in regardless of rank.

[ Still not batting an eyelash at that. Actually, that smile looks amused. ]

Perhaps, Miss.. Amane, am I correct? But more rather that like is to like and all that.

[ A beat. ]

I assure you, I have no motive to do any harm to anyone within this city, if this so concerns you.

I would hope so.

[Harm anyone in this city, she will step in without hesitation.

On the other screen, Amane noticed that Katsu stopped. He must be nearby, if she assume correctly.]

That's good. I like this city, and the people in it. I wouldn't want anything to happen to them.

[It's said lightly, but he pretty clearly means it.]

[ He senses the sincerity in those words. Gives him a pause for thought. ]

Then I suppose we're all on the same page then. My master did hold residence here for a time and I'd like for him to have a city to return to should the situation arise.

...You would like him to be here again?

[The city have its moments, but it's nice at times.]

Fair enough. It's not like we're going to let anything bad happen to people here.

[Oh Amane. :( Maybe he misses him. :| Did you think of that?]

[ Like a man misses his meal. ]

Suffice to say I'd rather be returned to my master's side as quick as possible. Whether it be that he returns here or I return home is another matter entirely.

[ A pause as he considers this. ]

We are in agreement then. Now, if I may be so bold as to press further about Jezebel...

[Possibly.

A pause. With this curse, she might tell more than she intended.]

...You may.

[Amusement from the demon. Silent watching from the angel.]

[Well Katsu's heading inside, but he's still listening. He's not sure this is a good idea, but he'll be here to help you. Or clarify. Or anything. ;;]

[ A pause to consider this. ]

I must admit to be rather curious as to just what exactly a human such as yourself has to offer Jezebel. You are familiar with the intricacies of a contract, after all.

Her master placed her within me to have a minion in the human world. In return for drawing on her powers, she would gain more strength and devour me. By then, she would be outside and free to move.

[In her body or Jezebel materialising outside. Either way, that would be what happen if she's left alone.]

By my time, she's been defeated... but Amane is here from a time before that.

[Which causes a really weird paradox or something, but if he thinks about it too much it gives him a headache.]

[ Okay, now this was kind of interesting. ]

So this city doesn't discriminate as to when we've been taken from? One man's past may be another's future then.

Interesting.

[ Another pause for consideration. ]

And being able to pull in one such as yourself, Mister Aoki and another who carries Jezebel.

Curiouser and curiouser indeed.

[A time when Jezebel's defeated... It's been so long, Amane almost forgot what it feels like before the demon was place within her.]

It seem rather...random. If there is a criteria to the selection, I do not know what they are yet.

[Does she appreciate being here? For most part, yes, if she don't think about her duty.]

I don't know either. I could check through any notes Naoya had, or Atsuro's, but I don't know if there'll be anything about that.

[He looked them over before and most of it was kind of gibberish to him, okay? He doesn't speak computer. ;w; ]

You'll have to pardon my sudden inquisition. I've been told most investigations into the mystery of this city were... scattered to say the very least.

[ A beat. ]

I would appreciate any assistance in the matter. The sooner we find out more, the sooner we can return home, perhaps.

[ The furrow of concentration is all but wiped from his brow as he manages the same cordial smile he presented before. ]

Do keep in touch though, if it isn't too much trouble, Miss Kuzuryu, Mister Aoki.

It won't be too much trouble, Mister Michaelis.

[Barring, of course, sudden events and other things that demand her attention.]

If I find any information that can aid us...I will share it.
