I run through the hallway, gripping my phone tightly in my hands. I didn't quite expect THAT reaction to it. I could almost hear the "clink" of the chains and the stilettos hitting the ground. I took a turn around the corner, and stopped running, holding myself against the wall. Sebastian had snapped when I said that. His whole demeanor and attitude... turned from calm, into a storm of evil fury. Sucking in deep breaths, and looked to the side, over the corner, to see if he was still chasing me. I let out a breath to see the hallways empty.

"Looking for me?"

I screamed, my skin suddenly craving with spiders at the chill and sharpness of his voice. "S-Sebastian..." I stuttered, to see the black clad butler now glaring at me. His eyes a now angry pink. "How can you see my true form, hmm?" He asked now, his whole aura screamed evil intent. I pressed myself to the wall, and frowned. If he got too close, I would have to use desperate measures.

"When I tasted your blood. I was trying to see if the same thing that happened to you would happen to me... I thought it would reject me." I answered, thankful for the calmness in my voice. "And then what?" He asked, he leaned in, his arm over my head, and his forehead almost touching mine. "Sebastian, I wouldn't do that..." I said, and he frowned. "Are you sure you should be giving me orders? After all, I had just fed this morning... I'm at the height of my power at the moment." Again with that surgery voice. So deceiving he was... "As much as I would hate to, I can kill you, remember?" I said, this time, I leaned in and touched our foreheads. Using the power I had, with Kasaii I rose my temperature to boiling. It wouldn't do anything to me, but it was hot enough where I could burn him. And I did. He jerked back quickly, touching his forehead with his gloved fingers. A red mark was left there. I then ripped myself away from the wall, and walked forward. "My whole body... it was made to fight, to rule, to judge. I'm half of an Ancient, Sebastian. Remember that." I said, and he let out a silent "tch", his eyes narrowing and his scowl evident.

I hated pulling this whole "I'm above you" card... but this time... I just felt it to be necessary. The man was pissed that I saw his true form! That's hardly anything to be mad about. Let alone chase me down the hall...

"Would you really, Miss Annie?" He asked suddenly, and I paused. Would I? Could I kill him? I caught myself quickly before the shock at his sudden question wouldn't be shown on my face. "Maybe. If need be, but I doubt you would do anything to get me to go that far..." I said nonchalantly.

And its true.

No matter how much I liked Sebastian... if it came to the point where it was necessary for us to fight... for us to go against each other... I would kill him.
