Episode 6 Continued - Murder on the Agenda
I gazed up in the room as the boss frantically paced his office, breath shaking.
“Boss, maybe we should let her go,” one of his men said.
“No!” he yelled then, pointing to me as my cheek swelled from a recent blow. “That servant’s just going to kill us anyway! We should just continue going and try to get the money!”
He then glanced down at me, starting straight for me as he pulled a knife from his pocket. “Where is it, huh? Where’s my money?!”
I gazed up at him. “Non-existent. I’m not giving you a penny.”
He just sliced my cheek, making me grunt when the pain stuck through me. “Give it to me and I’ll let you live!”
I then gazed up at him. “Not. A. Penny.”
He just growled under his breath and brought the knife down to me.
I winced.
But I felt no pain.
I gazed up then, breaths stilling when I found Sebastian hovering behind the man, holding the boss’s wrist that clutched the knife.
“I’m sorry, sir,” Sebastian said then, and I watched the boss shake heavily as he stared at me, but not at me. “I said the playdate was over, didn’t I? Please, stop striking my master. She doesn’t like that.”
He then flipped the man backwards, and he screamed as he went flying, crashing against his desk seconds later.
Sebastian then looked down at me. “Well… they certainly haven’t been playing nice with you, have they? You look like a small little child, all bound up like that.” He smiled. “Adorable.”
“Stop your sass and just kill them.” I glared.
He stood, sighing as he adjusted his gloves over his hands correctly. “Well, let’s get this over with.”
“What are you doing?!” the boss said, getting up in the shambles from his desk. “Kill him!”
All the men in the room stood at an instant and aimed at Sebastian, shooting their guns frantically.
I winced as the sounds burst through my ear drums, closing my eyes tightly.
Sebastian just gazed up with a dark smile, eyes glowing a demonic red.
And then suddenly his hands flipped out, swinging left and right as he caught bullet after bullet in a matter of seconds…
Until all their firing stopped, and they constantly clicked their empty guns.
They all gazed up then, eyes widening when Sebastian smiled dangerously, holding eighteen bullets in between his fingers.
“You insolent humans,” he said then, pupils slitting like a cat’s. “You seriously think that a couple measly guns will kill someone like me?”
They all breathed shakily, stepping backward.
“It’s part of a butler’s job to care for their guest in the most orderly fashion,” he stated then, eyes glowing angrily. “But look what you did to my master. She’s of high nobility, and you treated her like a slave. That isn’t how you treat a guest, now is it?”
The boss just scrambled backward, breath shaking.
“But I,” Sebastian said, smile sharpening, “am excellent at being a butler. And I know very well that when someone leaves something of theirs behind. I must return it.” He lifted his fingers that held the bullets. “So here you go.”
He swung his hands to the side, flipping the bullets out of his fingers at lightning speed, and all the men screamed as it pierced their heads in almost the exact same place.
They all toppled down to the ground, collapsing onto the floors as the warm scent of blood flooded the room.
Sebastian just ignored the single man alive—the boss—and turned toward me.
He knelt down, attending to my bindings. “Master, you look all swollen now. How unfortunate.”
“Well, if you came sooner than dilly-dallying around as usual, I wouldn’t be,” I snapped, “idiot.”
He just ripped the rope, releasing the tight cord from scraping my skin, and I nearly gasped in relief.
“Poor thing,” he said then, making me glare as he picked me up and carried me over to a small ottoman pushed to a wall. “Bleeding everywhere and all. Such a pity.” He set me down. “They didn’t treat you nicely, I see.”
I glared angrily.
“And what is with you and getting kidnapped?” He sighed and shook his head. “It’s depressing how much it happens. I might as well have to keep you in a net to prevent it.”
I just rolled my eyes and sank back on the couch. “Well… at least we found the perpetrators and are killing all of them.” I glanced up at the boss who was pressed to the wall, entire form shaking. “Shouldn’t have sent them alllll to my mansioooooon,” I sang, “now your entire crew is d-e-a-d.”
He swallowed something hard.
“Speaking of elimination,” Sebastian said, standing fully as he glanced over at the boss, eyes glowing a demonic red as his pupils slit, once more. “There’s one more rat to kill.”
He gasped and shook his head. “No! No! Please, don’t!”
The lights around dimmed as Sebastian grinned, his teeth sharpening into spikes, and his tailcoat suddenly morphed into a living darkness, swarming around behind him like a black fire.
The walls covered in dark shadows, falling around the room like feathers from an angel, and Sebastian turned toward him, his reddened eyes the only part of him glowing.
“Sebastian,” I said as I set my cheek in my hand, “kill him.”
