Crossdressing nightmare

[The video begins unceremoniously. Before the lens is an opulent affair complete with entertainment and ballroom dancing. Ladies and gentlemen of high society are in attendance delighting themselves with all the gala has to offer. Ciel on the other hand is here on business, in disguise as a young lady.]

I can’t see anything over this crowd….

[He mumbled more to himself than anyone else.]

Have you spotted the Viscount yet?

[ He looked up at Sebastian, who was currently posing as his tutor but before Sebastian could answer they heard a familiar voice…]

That girl is wearing the cutest outfit! I must go speak to her!

[A chill ran up the youthful earl’s spine]

Sebastian! Elizabeth can’t see me.. Like this!

[For the next few moments the two tried to get lost in the crowd but Ciel soon found himself alone. Surrounded by the other party goers. The important thing was… he also no longer could see Lizzie. Drawing in a breath he slowly exhaled. It was a narrow escape. He turned to one side….. And came face to face with his fiancee]

There you are!

[He tried to mask his absolute horror and carry on a normal conversation. His pitch a little higher than usual as he tried to maintain the façade]

You must excuse me…. I --

[Elizabeth’s eyes widened as she began to realize who she was truly speaking to..]

C-ciel?

[Her tone was soft and hesitant. Her lip quivered as she drew a hand over her mouth]

I-- I don’t understand. Why… why are you?

Elizabeth, it’s not what you think!

[Although to be honest, he had no idea what she was thinking]

C-ciel…..Ciel…. How could you!

[She flung her hand to the side, and turned on her heels to flee, tears beginning to stream down her face. Ciel reached out to stop her but it was too late,.]

[She was gone]

[That must have been what Druitt meant right? Searching Ciel's face didn't reveal any answers. It was difficult waiting to hear what would come out of Ritsuka's mouth. Ciel really didn't expect him to play along. If he was outed now... he'd be the laughing stock of the peerage. It would ruin him. Completely.]

[When Druitt leaned close, Ciel giggled slightly]

This is nothing.. [Implying he could be feistier in... other areas]

]

[If Ciel was standing close enough he might feel the disgusted shudder that runs through Ritsuka when Ciel giggles like some idiotic school girl with a crush. This was just too weird. He only continued to play along hoping that whatever Ciel planned to do to stop this man would happen soon and end this nightmare!]

E-eh?! [Ritsuka's eyes widen when his chin is lifted. Why was this creep touching him?! Isn't this supposed to be Ciel's nightmare?! NOT HIS OWN! He tires not to look the man in the eyes.]

I-I couldn't! I-it's far too embarrassing and I'm sure I couldn't keep up with you, sir. Try C- [He stops not sure if the name "Ciel" was far too masculine in western language to pass for a proper girl name.] S-sis. My sister.

[He turns his head trying to free it from the man's hold and looks to Ciel.] She's a far better dancer than I...

[Perhaps the giggle was a bit much but... he wasn't trying to impress Ritsuka dang it. As humiliating as this situation was he had to keep up the charade. He was so relieved when the other boy didn't out him right there. Good... if Druitt was dancing with Ritsuka-- he could possibly meet up with Sebastian and plan the next move. That plan gets shot to heck in 3...2...1]

Ha hah ha-- [He waved his hand a few times[ You're much too modest sister dear.

[

what's going-- [Before he can get the "on" out Ciel goes limp against the guys arm]

]

[Ritsuka shoots Ciel and annoyed look when he tries to pawn him back off on the pervert. No way, this guy was his catch, no way was Ritsuka gonna let Ciel dump his responsibility on him.]

That's i-

[He was about to but an end to this nonsense but was cut off when the lecher spoke. Take them somewhere alone? Oh, no way this was going too far. This dream needed to end now! He opens his mouth to speak but suddenly Ritsuka felt very light headed.]

I can't... Ci-- [He sees the other boy fall and just before he looses consciousness as well.]

Nn... [He slowly opens his eyes, but the view is blurry at first. It takes awhile, but eventually he's able to make out that pink mass laying next to him.]

Ciel? [He reaches out and shoves his shoulder to see if he gets a reaction.]

[The other boy didn't respond at first. When Ritsuka shoved him he started to come to, his mind swimming. The first thing he noticed was the bars. In his tired state he was prone to panic.. the cage hearkening back to his tragic past. His eye widened and he stood up... way too fast]

N-o...not this... not.....let me out of here!

[He falls back down in a heap of skirts, then he really starts to remember where they were..... thankful that the Viscount is no where nearby just now]

.........

[He sat up, huffed and pretended like he didn't just have a mini freak out]

Are you alright..............

[Ritsuka had sat up while Ciel came to. His rubbed his head and was about to check on Ciel again, but then the boy was suddenly on his feet and... panicking? Ritsuka watched with stunned silence. Not this again?]

... [When he fell to the floor Ritsuka watched quietly not sure if he should ask or...]

Huh? Oh, um, yeah I think so... ... ... Are you?

[Don't think it wasn't appreciated when Ritsuka didn't inquire about his behavior. Not so directly anyway]

I'm fine...

[Ciel crawled backwards in the cage and as far away as he could get from the newcomer.. as if it would do any good]

This-- this isn't possible! You're- you're dead!... I was there! I was the one that pulled the trigger...! [He didn't even care that he was revealing such details haphazardly to Ritsuka. The fear was overriding rational thought]

Sebastian! Sebastian, I'm here!

[But he could call all day and the demon wouldn't be coming. In the meantime other members of the crowd were beginning to walk closer]

[Ciel clamped his hands over his ears and stood up. This couldn't be happening could it... The noise was growing louder and more deafening as even more voices spoke up out of the shadows. ]

[Ritsuka stood up when he heard another man's voice. It was deeper than the lecher's voice.]

Ciel? Who is that?

[He looks over when the other boy starts to shout. Pulled the trigger? ...Ciel was a killer? But ...he was so young. Ritsuka watches him worriedly, normally the boy was so composed aside from the few outburst of anger. Who were these people ...and who was Sebastian? Though the way Ciel called for him reminded him of how he calls for Soubi.] Soubi...

[He was about to call for him, but then another voice appears, this one was higher than either of the men but that was all drowned out by the sound of a chain saw revving. They had chainsaws back then?! Wait, not the point... He realizes this might be too dangerous for Soubi. Who knew just how many dangerous things Ciel would conjure in his currently frantic state, he need to calm him down. Looking back to Ciel, he makes his way over to him, paying no mind to the third voice.

They were all just dreams, and figments of Ciel's twisted mind, but just like they could on his world in this world even figments can hurt you. Ciel needed to wake up now!]

Ciel, get up! Ciel!

[The voices and chainsaw were starting to drown out Ritsuka's voice, but that wasn't enough to stop him. He walks over and kneels in front of the fallen child.]

CIEL! [He takes hold of his hands and tries to uncover his ears. His own hands trembling as they pulled, but Ritsuka did his best to keep from panicking. It was a sacrifice's job to keep it together even in the face horror and to keep their fighter grounded. Ciel may not have been his fighter, but the boy was still in dire need of some grounding.] CIEL! Listen to me! Don't listen to them. This is your world and you need to take control of it!

[His breathing grew rapid, as he started to shrink more within himself. If he only had his gun, he'd kill that bastard again. Make sure he stayed dead this time. Weaponless, humiliated, and trapped in a cage he felt completely vulnerable. Even Ritsuka, though he was in the same cage seemed miles away. As if the Earl was trapped all by himself.]

[The cage bars seemed to keep the boys in but not the others out. They could easily pass through the cage as if it wasn't there. It wasn't until Ritsuka touched him, that Ciel remembered he was still here. Finally managing to pull Ciel's hands away from his ears Ritsuka starts getting through]

Dream... a dream.. why does everyone keep calling this a dream?!

[He shouted getting frustrated that everyone else refused to see what was truly happening ~~Least in his mind~~]

I can't die here..... I haven't-- [Made those killers pay yet. Trying to compose himself wasn't easy]

Tch, can it, pervert. [Ritsuka doesn't look at Grell when he's addressed, his gaze remaining on Ciel since it helped to keep composure when you had something to focus on.]

They keep calling it a dream because it is one, stupid! And stop talking like that! No one is dyin--

[His eyes widen when one of the creatures appears inside of the cage with them. His hold on Ciel's hands tighten in both fear and to try and keep the other boy focused on him.]

Shut up, you're already laughing. That's all you've done since you got here.

[He hisses.] Look at me, Ciel. Would I be here if this wasn't a dream? I'm not even supposed to be born for another 200 years!

[Then he thinks of something else. He reaches up and removes his hat.] Look! Remember these? Remember how they make you sneeze whenever I get too close? Ciel, you haven't sneeze at all since I got here! This isn't real!

[

[ Ciel does start to focus more on Ritsuka and less on the noise around them.]

[

L-look at you? [He stared at the other boy-- in a dress-- Why was this git touching him. AGAIN?] Everyone could have been drug here with us... at any point in time.. Don't you understand..

[He tried to draw away from Ritsuka when he finally made a point that struck pay dirt]

That's right........I haven't. [Which made absolutely no sense given how close they were to each other right now.] What's going on... what's causing this? [He finally pulled away from Ritsuka and straightened his skirt, looking around the dream... the figures seemed to fade away leaving the two surrounded by nothing but darkness.]

Lady? [Ugh, Ciel knew some real weirdos. The sooner this freak woke up, the better.]

Finally!

[He lets out an annoyed but relieved sigh when all the noise starts to die and the people went away.]

People are saying it's Hades throwing a tantrum or something... he sent these ducks out all over the worlds and they're trapping people in their own heads... and apparently can drag people into the dreams with you... [When he stands up his dress is replaced by his own normal clothing.]

Pants! [He says, patting the legs of his trousers contently.]

[And you've only seen a taste of them Ritsuka... ~~Of course you know plenty of weird people yourself~~]

[This was .. awkward. Pressing a hand to his head, Ciel tried not to recall everything he might have just revealed to this cat boy. He shook his head and took a deep breath]

Hades.. [Repeats the name a little robotically. There's someone he'd also like to get revenge on. He stood up himself and reverted to some normal clothing.]

I heard about the ducks before.. I just didn't realize how disorienting or strong their illusions could be.

[The happy yellow nemesis can't hide any longer. It's standing betwixt them]

[~~As far as you know, they're all perfectly normal... yes... normal.~~ It was very awkward and Ritsuka is no longer sure if saving this boy's life twice was the best move. He was a murderer...but if that man was anything like that dirty old lecher they met before... perhaps Ciel had a reason for doing it. Still, Seimei might of had a good reason at first, before he started to make a habit out of killing...]

The ones that tap into fear are always the worst... [Ritsuka says knowingly and looks down at the rubber fiend.]

...Anyway... you should ...[kill?] destroy it before it takes over again...

[~~True enough~~. To be honest, Ciel wasn't sure why the boy was helping him again-- the most obvious reason being so he could leave the dream himself. That was logical enough. Everyone had a reason for their actions. Still he might unconsciously act a little nicer to the cat for a duration of time. MAYBE. ]

Mm. [The duck has to pay for all this humiliation. There's no reason to hide his weapon now. Drawing out his gun, he takes aim at the duck and pulls the trigger. No more ducky..]

[Ritsuka visibly tenses when he sees the gun then closes his eyes when the trigger is pulled and the duck blows apart with a pathetic sounding squeak. When he opens his eyes again the darkness is gone and he stares down at the spot the duck had been just moments ago.]

...That guy you shot... was he a pervert to?

... That was just part of the dream.

[Denial, denial, denial....... and yes he was]
