The Deathperation of one Hell of a Butler

Chapter 1: To a New World

A/N: I literally watched Kuroshitsuji in two days - one day's night and morning the next. Forgive any possible OOC-ness.

"But Sebas-chan, where will you go?" Grell asked, unusually serious for a change. Sebastian sighed, holding the black gemstone necklace that contained his late master's soul in the palm of his hand.

"I don't know for sure. Once I leave this dimension... I wish to go to another world, and live in Japan. I'm quite fond of their traditions."

"When are you leaving...?"

"... In a few minutes."

"Sebas-chan, um...," Grell drifted off, his cheeks starting to darken. "May I... tag along?"

"Hmm?" Sebastian hummed, his eyes glimmering with suprise. "Are you aware that if you cross dimensions, your powers as a reaper will vanish? That disgraceful chainsaw of yours will probably lose a lot of strength." Grell frowned, looking at the weapon in consideration.

"You know...," he murmured. "Going to another dimension, another country... it could be a completely new experience. Romantics... language... fashion... Oh, Sebby, you're headed for a whole new world! Please, take me with you!"

"I could abandon you in the new world and let you suffer as you struggle to learn its ways," Sebastian whispered back.

"Or, you might be as scared as I, and you might cling to me~," Grell replied, breaking into a wide grin as his nose began to bleed.

Sebastian sighed. "I suppose it couldn't hurt too much, but I do have a request," he said, looking seriously at the red-haired male and smirking. "Hold on to me tight." Grell didn't hesitate to cling to the demon tightly, and he squealed with what seemed to be a mixture of pain and pure pleasure as he felt the air begin to suffocate him. He nuzzled tightly into Sebastian's chest, and shuddered when he felt the demon's hand against his back. "Say goodbye to this world, Grell," he rasped in that voice that completely tormented the reaper.

"F...farewell, life as I know it," the reaper murmured. Sebastian frowned.

It seemed as though Grell was more determined than he thought.

Moments later, Grell and Sebastian found themselves in a dark street, exhausted from their traveling. "Sebas-chan...," Grell panted, his lower lip trembling as he looked up at the demon. "Sebas-chan, I held on..." He smiled as he saw the demon again, when he tensed. "Sebas-chan?" The other's deep, blood-red eyes at last opened, and Grell was almost petrified. "Wow, Sebby, I'm seeing you in a new light. You're... truly... beautiful..." Sebastian sighed, and pushed the red-haired male off of him, then tensed slightly. He was feeling things more intensely. He no longer had the dulled nerves of a full demon. He was... a human. And it seemed as though Grell was now, as well.

Sebastian quickly looked down to the necklace he wore, and frowned when he saw it was transformed into a ring with an indigo stone. "My Lord's soul...," he whispered. He leaned in, and pressed his soft lips against the stone. "I lost it...," he whispered. "This dimension... we cannot take souls in this dimension... I've lost the master... Damn."

"Ne, ne, Sebby, you don't suppose the people here don't have souls, do you?" Grell questioned, picking up what he believed to be his chainsaw. He frowned when he saw that instead, he didn't have his chainsaw. He had scissors.

"That figures," he muttered.

"All humans have souls, Grell," Sebastian sighed, standing up. "But in this dimension, we can't steal them."

"Who are you people? Clearly foreigners," snickered a deep voice. Sebastian and Grell turned to see a man with raven-black hair, and a pair of unusual weapons that apparently turned Grell on.

"Ooh-hoo-hoo, what are those?!" he squealed, dashing forward and taking a hold of one of them. "They look so kinky! How can you wield such a thing without an ounce of shame? Tell me now, cute little asian kid, what are these delicious tools of yours?" The 'cute little asian kid' quickly took his weapons back, and frowned, his steely, gray eyes blazing with anger.

"I don't know what you mean," he snarled, "but if you call me cute one more time, I will bite you to death." Grell sighed dreamily, and brought the ravenette into a tight embrace.

"Oh, Sebastian, I think I've found a new love intrest," he cooed with happiness.

"Let him go, Grell," Sebastian sighed, walking over and pulling the red-haired male off of the other. "I apologize for my partner's ignorance," he murmured, bowing to the ravenette.

"P-p-p-p-partner?" Grell stuttered, getting another nosebleed.

"Anyway, Grell, those weapon are known as tonfas. Judging by this young man's stance, he is quite familiar with them. I would be careful."

"Oh?" purred the raven-haired male, suddenly looking more intrested and less annoyed. "So you aren't merely a couple of ignorant fools. Splendid. I was raring to go for a good fight. If you win against me... I might just tell you more about that ring you've got. But if I win... ... heh. Let's just say I won't go easy on you either way." With that, the Japanese man rushed at Sebastian, but the former demon was ready for him. He caught the impending strike with ease, and dodged the next one. But the other was fast. With ease, the Japanese man threw several more strikes, until he at last hit a tonfa right into the side of Sebastian's head. The red-eyed male gasped as his body hit the ground, and it wasn't long before the other was on him, beating him mercilessly. Grell watched, both intruiged and stunned as he watched his love groan in what had to have been some of the first pain he'd ever felt. The Japanese sighed boredly, placing the tonfa against Sebastian's throat, and he muttered, "You weren't nearly as fun as your demeanor implied," he muttered. Sebastian smirked at him.

"I'm sorry."

Grell finally snapped out of his gaze, and he took up his scissors, then ran at the tonfa-wielding Japanese, but was sent back to the ground with ease. "Don't mock me with those lame little weapons," the ravenette hissed, standing up. "You two ought to remember me if you plan on staying. My name is Hibari Kyoya. If I catch you disturbing my Namimori again tomorrow night, I won't show any mercy."

Grell rushed over to Sebastian, and looked down, ashamed, as he helped the former butler up. "I... I'm so sorry, Sebas-chan," he sighed. "I'm quite weak in this realm, it would seem."

"You're weak either way, so I don't really mind," Sebastian replied. "Grell, I hate to say this, but... while we're here together... let's team up." Grell looked deeply into the other's eyes, his own shining brightly with sheer gratefulness.
"Oh, Sebby, thank you...," the red-haired male murmured, his face slowly flushing. "I knew you were a great guy, I just knew it~."

"Shut up. I'm human now, that's all," Sebastian muttered. With that, he began to walk off in a seemingly random direction. "Come. Let's find a place to spend the rest of our night." Grell paused, his mind racing.

'Place to spend the night.'

Oh, the many different meanings.

Meanwhile...

"Huh? Foreigners?" Tsunayoshi repeated.

"Yes. I'm telling you because you're the kind of herbivore who would foolishly decide to take them into your home," Hibari answered from his place on the window frame. "There is one with long red hair and a stupid voice, and one who has a strong aura, but isn't much in a real fight. I wouldn't know for sure, but judging by their clothes, they are from Europe. Possibly England?"

"Hah?! All the way from England?!" Tsuna repeated. "And they attacked you?"

"... Well..."

Tsuna sighed. "Oh, of course, I'm sorry," he sighed. "You must've been patrolling."

"That's right," Hibari said. "... I merely wished to inform you of this, so I will be taking my leave now." With that, the ravenette leapt through the window, and was soon gone from sight.

"Wow, from England," Tsuna sighed, flopping down on his bed. "I kinda want to meet them."

"It's only eight o'clock," Reborn answered. "I would permit you going out to try and find them."

"Heh? Really?" Tsuna answered. "... Okay, uh... just let me text Gokudera."

Suddenly, the brown-haired male heard his doorbell ring, and he sighed, getting off of his bed and going up to the door. He opened it, and gaped. "G-Gokudera-kun? What's... behind you?"

The silver-haired male bowed deeply, before giving his boss a cheerful grin.

"I felt you mentally calling me, so I swiftly interpreted what you wanted me to carry out and took care of the random foreigners I found," Gokudera explained. "It's only natural that the right-hand man of the Vongola be able to do this~."

"Actually, he was drinking a soda when he stumbled upon us," Grell muttered, folding his arms. "He threw a stick of dynamite at us, then when he found out he couldn't beat Sebas-chan, he dragged us here."

"Good evening," Sebastian sighed. "We're just looking for a place to stay. My name is Sebastian, and this is an acquaintance of mine, Grell."

Remembering what Hibari had told him, Tsuna started to try and turn them away, when Nana, his mother, took notice and ran right over. "Oh? Tsuna's friends? Come right in~."

"... Excuse me, boss," Gokudera said, happily walking inside. Tsuna looked at the two who continued to stare blankly at the house, before sighing, and stepping aside.

"Come on in," he muttered. The black-haired male came in first, giving Tsuna a deep bow before he walked inside. Grell chased after the other, his expression hinting at nervousness. The two reluctantly trailed after the brown-haired male into the kitchen, and followed his example by sitting down at the table. "Well... uh, Hibari-san stopped by to let me know there were a couple of foreigners about. I suppose these two are who he was talking about. But really, as far as a place to stay, we-"

"Oh, Tsuna-kun, of course they can stay!" Nana said after getting her first good look at Sebastian. "They can room with you!"

"WHAT?!" shouted Tsuna, Gokudera, and Grell all at once as Sebastian calmly drank from a glass of water he'd been given.

"These two suspicious characters, room with the boss?!" Gokudera shouted. "I'll have to spend the night over tonight to make sure they don't try anything."

"Why my room?" Tsuna protested. "They kind of creep me out, too!"

"I'm sorry for my rudeness, but Sebas-chan and I sleeping together in the same room? That would be... oh, my~," Grell said, before leaning back far in his chair and fainting. Sebastian gave everyone in the room his charming smile.

"We would be delighted," he said smoothly. "Thank you for your hospitality. We both sincerely promise to repay you."

And so, with a whole lot of suspicion flying around, Sebastian and Grell were permitted to stay at the Sawada household.

-End Chapter

*w* I just fell in love with Kuroshitsuji during vacation, so...

Do tell me what pairings we would like to see, crossover or otherwise. Only thing I'd like to be clear on is Xanxus-Squalo, Belphegor-Fran, and just a touch of Belphegor Squalo for a little something we'll see soon.

KHR people, this is five years in the future, mm'kay?

Please Review!

Note: This was kind of a vacation fic for me. Updates on it are probably going to be really uneven, because I can only write it in my spare, spare time.
