A/N: This contains a chain!Elliot and a chain!Leo. This is quite OoC and a bit AU!
His eyes were covered by a baby blue mask, masking his topaz pools.
His sword tucked in the loop of his coat belt. The taps of his shoes echoed the quiet halls. Wind gushed through the windows, throwing his beige locks into a mess. His brothers and sister were directly behind him, their eyes being covered by masks themselves.
"I wish to not see you ever in my sight again! None of you!"
He grit his teeth and clenched his hands into tight fists.
A soft hand was placed on his shoulder and the half chain looked back, meeting another pair of soft azure pools covered by an ebony mask.
He forced out a gentle smile towards his sister, "I'm all right, Nee-san…"
She gave a weak smile, knowing her little brother was lying.
"We're all here, Elliot…"
Said man nodded and felt his hair being ruffled by his older brother as a reminder.
He smiled and looked up at the other. This was his family and he was satisfied with it… His mother had gone psychotic and his father began to hate all of his children, thinking them to be weak. One day, Elliot would prove him wrong…
"You creature! Get out of my sight!"
The youngest Nightray shook his head, his left eye turning red from anger building in him.
He jumped, realizing that he needed to calm down or his identity would be caught from being a half chain. Elliot took deep breaths and sighed after he was calmed. He turned around facing his siblings.
"Are my eyes normal…?"
Everyone nodded and he smiled gently, "Okay, thanks…"
The quartet kept walking down the halls, looking for the group they were supposed to be with. Soon, the Nightrays had passed another quartet. A woman had mid-back pink hair, matching her rosy pink colored pools. A man had spiked orange hair as a black symbol was tattooed on his face with the other man who seemed to be a bit big. Then, there was a small teenager, four to five inches shorter than Elliot. He had raven hair that stopped just below the shoulders, showing his ebony pools, his pupils being surrounded by circles, making his eyes more unique. The other quartet was cloaked in a bright crimson cloak, showing people that they had belonged in some group.
When Elliot and the boy had passed, the blonde's footsteps stopped and he looked back at the quartet, sensing something from the younger.
The Nightray blinked and shook his head, seeing his siblings were looking at him worriedly.
"I'm fine… I just thought I felt something…"
"If you're sure… We should get going soon, or we'll be late."
Everyone looked back at the raven haired male, seeing his black pools being covered by an ivory mask.
"All right, Claude."*

Baskervilles prior to the Nightrays

"Leo! Come on get up!"
He blinked, staring at the ceiling, "I've been up, Charlotte…"
"Well then get changed!"
Leo huffed and sat up, the black feathered wings that adorned his back stretched out, almost covering his entire bed as some feathers fell. His tail swished as it tried getting the kinks out.
The raven got up, his wings resting on his shoulders as he got up to walk over to his closet. There wasn't much clothing, but Leo was perfectly fine with it because he didn't want very much either. He glanced up at Charlotte and raised his brows in irritation.
"Are you going to stand there like a pervert or walk out like a lady?"
The woman growled and threw the sheets she had ripped off of the boy and stomped out of his room in annoyance. Leo chuckled and caught the sheets before placing them on his bed as he dusted the fallen feathers off of the pillows.
He huffed and felt more feathers falling on his legs. Yeah, he was molting.
'Did you need to give me wings…?'
He could hear the annoyance of his chain speak to him.
"I didn't even plan on this to happen! If you were able to take care of yourself, you wouldn't have the need of wings nor a tail, nor an extra pair of canines."
Leo clamped his mouth shut, "All right, I apologize, Jabberwocky…"
The teenager never meant to get his chain angry with him, if he did, he'd either get angered himself or just feel guilty because his chain had save him.
The raven grabbed a dress shirt and slipped it over his shoulders, bringing his wings together in the process so he could hide them. His tail wrapped around his waist to also be hidden with the feathered wings. His cuffs became ruffles and went to his fingertips. The teenager began buttoning the shirt as he heard Charlotte banging at the door again. He groaned and yanked the door open, glaring at the woman as he was still in his night pants.
"What it God's name do you want woman?"
"Can you hurry up?!"
Leo glared, "I'm working on it…"
"Well hurry up!"
The younger just rolled his eyes and slammed the door shut, grabbing his pants, making sure he went even slower to annoy the woman.
~o~o~o~o~o~o~
After getting changed, Leo walked out into the main room and saw Charlotte looking completely irritated with the boy.
The chain harmlessly chuckled and sat down on the couch next to Lily.
"Lotti's been really impatient with you today Leo~"
Said man smirked and pet the blonde's hair, "So I've noticed, what's wrong, Charlotte?"
This time, the woman nearly thrashed at the younger until she saw his scythe glow in dark purple flames.
Leo shook his head, "Easy, Jabberwocky."
Soon the scythe when back to being normally black with the blades shining an iridescent purple and Leo took grasp of his weapon, holding it to his chest.
"You know how Jabberwocky gets if you threaten, Charlotte, calm down. Why do you need me?"
~o~o~o~o~o~o~
Leo sighed as he crossed his arms, "Just why am I dressed as a woman?"
Charlotte giggled while Fang and Doug looked at the male in complete pity.
"One, payback, two because I said there would be two women and two men. We didn't plan on you coming until Lily got sick."
Leo rolled his eyes and looked out the window, luckily his cloak covered his body structure. The brunette sighed and looked out the window, throwing his black ruffled skirt over his knees more properly.
'Jabberwocky, please kill her.'
~o~o~o~o~o~o~
"Ah~ who is this lovely lady~?"
Leo's brow twitched as he pat his skirt down so it was properly on. He blushed while he had to curtsy towards the odd man.
"This is our baby sister, Leonara~ she's in for Lily since she had gotten sick."
Leo growled and pushed the woman's hands off his shoulder. It was hot when you were in a suit under the suffocation of a corset and dress being placed on you. Luckily the cloak placed over his shoulders his arms that were covered by his tail coat.
"Good afternoon, Sir."
Sometimes, Leo was grateful his voice was pitched.
"She's adorable~"
The brunette blushed until his face was grabbed and his cheeks were pulled upon by a woman, obviously his wife.
"Aw~ She's so cute~ If only you were my daughter~"
"M-ma'am. P-please drop me."
'Jabberwocky! Are you just going to let this happen?!'
The teenager could hear his chain laughing at him.
'You good for nothing bird!'
The woman finally dropped the boy and he fell to his knees, rubbing his cheeks as he felt tears in his eyes from how hard that woman pinched.
"Ow…"
Leo got to his feet again and dusted off his skirt, feeling an icepack being placed gently on his cheek. The chain looked over and saw a male smiling gently towards him.
"Mother is just very excited to have two ladies over, especially one your age. She was never able to have daughters so in turn she had three boys and father."
The younger smiled, taking hold of the plastic wrap, "Ah, that explains a lot, thank you."
He nodded and allowed Leo to step into the house first.
~o~o~o~o~o~o~
Being taken down the halls, the boy couldn't seem to leave Leo alone.
He was at his side twenty-four seven. Sometimes he'd try to touch him, only to have Fang and Doug glare at him, earning a chuckle out of the younger male.
Soon enough, there was a room that everyone was pushed in and the mother and father were smirking.
"So, was it Glen who had sent you here, Baskervilles?"
Charlotte merely blinked and shrugged, "Ah, looks like we've been caught~"
Fang gripped his sword and Charlotte whistled, sending her chain, Leon, in front of her.
Leo's cloak was caught and he yelped, feeling himself being choked.
"Now, now, would you like your precious sister to be destroyed?"
Leo sighed and shook his head, seeing the boy that was hitting on him earlier.
"Honestly, you're good with the ladies."
Fang and Doug snickered as ebony wings ripped through the cloth of the cloak, dress, coat, and shirt. Leo sighed, knowing he'd have to tailor his clothing again. He had grown used to it over the years of being bound to the soul with Jabberwocky. He shook his head and stepped on the boy's toe with the edge of his heel, earning a yelp and for him to be dropped. Leo pushed off the ground and flipped over to everyone with the help of his wings.
"Jabberwocky."
Purple and black flames sparked to life in Leo's hands as his scythe was placed into his hands. He sighed and ripped off the dress, his tail coat flaring from the force of the teen's ripping.
"Sorry to disappoint you. However, we were never looking for a fight and Glen had not sent us."
He shook his head and took off his glasses, revealing his ebony pools and everyone gasped. Leo rolled his eyes and placed the lenses in the pocket of his coat.
"Y-you're-"
"Leo Baskerville? The boy who was bound to the soul by his chain, Jabberwocky? Correct ma'am."
The brunette shook his head, "However, if it's a duel you're looking for. I'm ready to play a bit with Jabberwocky."
Leo pushed himself off the ground so he was in the air, missing the man charging at him. He shook his head and held Jabberwocky tightly in his arms.
He smirked, charging at the man with his scythe held high, he threw his arm down, hearing the woman scream for her husband to look behind him.
"Oh, but it's too late~"
Ebony eyes flashed red as his pupils went slit and the raven sliced the man in the stomach, slicing him into two. Blood gushed everywhere on Leo and he chuckled, looking at the pool of crimson, matching his cloak. Leo looked at the woman, seeing her eyes wide as he husband's blood was on her cheek a little. He chuckled, stepping up to the woman.
"Do you wish to forget, ma'am?"
The woman was completely paralyzed at Leo's act and his eyes widened. He looked at the woman's face, seeing her smirking as her eyes looked crazed.
He chuckled, startling the woman, "Ah, I was fooled~"
Soon the brunette's chuckle became more maniacal and he raised the scythe, hitting the woman in the skull, splitting it and slicing her into two as well.
"Just die!"
Soon the fast taps of more people started and Leo ran out seeing guards run at him. The brunette laughed maniacally raising his sword, hitting and slicing every man.
"Die, die, die!"
Blood was everywhere and Leo was no longer in control of his body. His mind and Jabberwocky's were gone, what was left was only Leo's chain side as his skin was a coal color and his painted nails turned into talons, ripping his gloves.
"Leo! Leo!"
Soon scarlet eyes turned back to the raven's normal ebony pools, glazed in exhaustion. The teen dropped to his knees, collapsing in the pool of carcasses.
~o~o~o~o~o~o~
Leo sighed, knowing that Fang, Doug, and Charlotte were keeping a good eye on him from the incident not too long ago.
He couldn't fly for an hour or two from his wings being watered down by a bucket of cold water. The brunette shivered, the ice water soaking his back
Soon enough, the quartet had passed another quartet masked. There was a tall male with sleek black hair with raven pools, another man with long blonde hair, pulled up into a pony tail with blue eyes, a girl with short, raven hair that curled in the front also blue pools. Then there was a boy with short beige hair, similar to the woman next to him. He had a baby blue mask covering his topaz pools while he carried a sword in the back of his coat. The groups passed and Leo turned the corner, only to look back as if he felt something. He watched the quartet fade and his eyes narrowed.
"Charlotte, you're going to have doing this probably. Don't you dare hurt them, but get that boy soon."
The woman looked at the brunette and smirked, "Will do~"
"Not now… But soon. That boy is special, Jabberwocky and I can tell."
She smirked, "Yes sir~"
The brunette held his arm out to Fang, asking for his cloak, "I'm getting cold thanks for the cold water."
The man frowned and held the cloak to the brunette, "It won't help much because of the holes but here."
Leo shrugged and wrapped the cloak around his shoulders and kept walking, his eyes straight.
'That boy's special… But what is he? I feel like we have a connection and he's smells like something familiar…'
