Author's Note:

Well, it has finally arrived! The long awaited sequel, A Cruel Demon's Fate, has finally arrived! I hope that the it was worth the wait, as I can't wait to see where this story goes!

But for those of you who haven't read the original story, Criminal, I highly recommend that you read that fanfic first before you read this one. Otherwise, you will be really confused as to what's going on. I will have a link to the first chapter at the end of this author's note, so it will be easy access for you.

Anyway, I hope you all enjoy the first two chapters and please review!

A thick fog surrounded a large, black, gloomy garden, having no light to be seen anywhere. Mimi stood in the middle of it, shivering from the cold and her green eyes wide with fear. She wildly looked around her surroundings, desperate to find any sort of sight in the blinding fog. She did not want to be here, as fear filled her mind. For if she was in the garden, then he was likely to be here.

"...Mimi..."

At the sound of her name, Mimi's eyes widened.

"...Count Bleck!" she called out. "Count, where are you?"

"...Mimi..."

Desperate to find her old count, Mimi ran in the direction of his voice. Black flowers and trees surrounded her, even tried to block her path. But Mimi used all her shape shifting abilities to doge them. Nothing could stop her.

"...Mimi...Mimi..."

"I'm coming, count!" Mimi shouted. "Hang in there, I'm almost to you!"

Finally, in the distance, a large fountain came into view. There, a man dressed in white stood in front of it, his yellow eyes on her. Mimi's eyes teared up.

"Count Bleck!"

Count Bleck smiled slightly at the sight of her, relief glowing in his eyes.

But when Mimi reached closer to the count, a large purple and yellow electric sphere appeared out of nowhere and hit him straight in the back. Count Bleck screamed, his eyes going to the back of his skull as he fell to the ground dead. Mimi gasped.

"Count Bleck, no!"

"Aha ha ha ha..."

Mimi's face turned pale as another man stepped out of the shadows. A jester dressed in black, purple, and yellow, his gray and yellow eyes shining beneath his black and white mask. Mimi's face paled as Dimentio stepped closer to her.

"Hello, my dear bellezza," he said softly. "It is so good to see you again."

He put his face dangerously close to hers, his eyes burning with blood lust.

"The damn count is dead!" Dimentio exclaimed. "Let his blood stain the land as chaos and destruction consume us all!"

He gave a demented laugh, his voice echoing in Mimi's ears. Mimi stared at him, tears filling her eyes as she couldn't believe what she saw.

"...No!"

She turned her back on Dimentio and ran, running as fast as she could. But no matter how far she ran, his smooth as silk voice would not leave her.

"You can't hide from me forever, Mimi! I told you that I would return to you. For you are, and will always, be mine!"
