Chapter 16:

While William stood in utter confusion everyone else seemed know what to do and where to go. There was chaos around him, but he stood still and simply watched it all - this much he knew: he had to get  away as soon as possible. But he also had to find out what was going on and put a stop to it. Suddenly he realized that it was somehow his responsibility to get all of these reapers out of here  and back to safety, but it was also his responsibility to stop this from ever occurring again. Whatever this was. William sighed as he felt like the weight of the world was on his shoulders souly. Suddenly he noticed someone standing there with him, staring at him as if waiting for an answer. He looked back at the man only to realize it was Arthur "Aren´t you coming?" He asked, sounding like he was repeating himself. Maybe he was though, William had been too stuck in his head.

"Coming where?" he asked sheepishly.

" To help to free the others!" Arthur seemed annoyed having to point out something so clear out.

" Ohh, right! Pardon me!" William followed Arthur, to see reapers smashing open cage after cage after cage. William wasn´t the type who liked smashing things, unless he got to do it with his death scythe, he liked doing things in a neat organized manner and this certainly wasn´t it. " What are your plans after freeing all these people?" William asked, although he assumed that this wild crowd really lacked of a plan. That was the problem though. He didn´t have one either.

"What do you mean? Get the hell out of here of course!" William nodded, understanding how such a plan would be the only thinkable one after being locked up here for so long. However he helt like it was his responsibility to solve this case once and for all - and running away never solved anything and. Arthur could easily see from William´s eyes his thoughts and he seemed terrified by them: " You´re going to get the hell pout of here too!" he said, sounding like an order, like trying to make it clear to William that there was no other choice when he wanted to live.

" It is my duty, my mission that was given to me to find out what is happening here and stop it, true, It was also part of the task to save all of you if possible, but that is not all I have to do,"

" It´s a suicide mission!" Arthur cried, he was a good man and hence even without knowing William too much, seemed to treat him as a friend.

" I know.I came to accept that... Quite honestly I did think the Higher Ups wanted to get rid of me by sending me on this mission, but there might be a good change that we will live after all. And running
away never solves anything,"

Arthur was quiet for a seeming to try to think over William´s words:" Did they sent you alone?"

" No, but luckily the rest of my team  - Sutcliff, Knox, Humphries and Slingby are the the fiorest and hopefully - more or less fine. At least I hope so."

William looked at Arthur who was staring at him for some reason: " T-That´s your team?"

" Yes.I´m not sure why I listed them all like this, but they are - a good team, " William admitted, surprising even himself.

"Well, from this moment on, I´m part of your team as well. What´s the plan, sir?"

Meanwhile back in the camp Alan had seemed to have taken over Sebastian's duties as a butler, if not fully then at least partially he seemed to have started to serve or help the kid around. Right now he was tying the boys loose shoelaces by the smoking fire place. Eric walked by and frowned rather disapprovingly:" Why do you serve this ungrateful little brat like you were the one contracted with him, "

" He´s only a child, Eric, " Alan sighed, finished with the shoelaces he smiled up to Ciel, recieving a cold look, but not quite as arrogant one as Sebastian often might have get, the boy new well enough that

the reaper helped him out at his free will and could walk away any time he wished. In fact all of them could and the thought rather scared Ciel. He had not been asking for Alan´s help, but he was glad the  reaper had offered it. Ciel´s train of thoughts was interrupted by Grell´s nervous loud voice: " We have to start moving! If Sebas-chan and Will aren´t going to show up themselves and it seems they are not  
we must go and look for them!"

" Empty wondering will help no one! At least they will know where we are this way! If they are not back in a day we will go and look!" Eric ordered, he was becoming more like William, tense and easy to upset now.

" But-!" Grell began about to start rambling about how he could not leave his true love in danger, but was interrupted:" If you want to help d something with that corpse!" he pointed at fake William and with that statement he had shut Grell up for a moment.

"I´m with the redhead. Sebastian and Specs have not returned in a time long enough so we better go to look for them. Sitting here does nothing,"

" Fine," Eric sighed, "I guess we´ll pack the few things we have then and make our way into the forest.

William stared at Arthur for a moment, not willing to admit that he didn´t in fact have one.He looked around himself once more to see the chaos of reapers breaking free, however that happy chaos,

overjoyed with feeling of victory and freedom was soon to begone and replaced with terror as many men in white coats became from the doors starting to silence and capture the reapers one more, there weren´t that many, but the reapers weren't quite at their best when it came to strength. Despite that their newly found adrenaline rush from breaking free seemed to help them enough. Still William wasn´t going to stand and risk being captured again, their best change was to run and try to find a safer place within the facility so thy could come out wiith a better plan: " Run!" he ordered.

"Hey that was my plan!" Arthur cried, but he was not dissapproving, in fact he sounded far more cheerful that the situation called, his free attitude reminded William of Ronald's almost and suddenly William was glad to be there with him, but he was not going to voice the thought.

" We need allies! A bigger team!" Arthur cried as they ran though the mayhem surrounding them." Someone we could trust!"

" Yes, I wonder if we could return to my team and come back then,"

"Yes, but for that we need to get OUT of here first and I hear that´s quite impossible with all the security at the doors. There isn´t anyone strong and powerful on the inside you know is there?"

" There is, but we can hardly trust him!" Arthur and William noticed one of the interrogation rooms and slipped their way inside. There on a table sat a demon with a girl in whom William recognized the woman from before, AX-3 if he remembered correctly:" Michaelis, what are you doing here!? And why do you got that poor woman here with you?"

" Well I´m still looking for a way to get out of here. The guards here are ridiculously well-trained even for me I managed to set some chaos off, but sadly escape became difficult. I needed a better plan and you were no help, so I figured I´d get one of the staff members so they´d help me their way out if here!"

" I didn´t know there were demons out here too..." Arthur interrupted the two.

" There are and all sorts of other creatures too, they are performing some sort of experiments with us to create a hybrid that would be with all the good qualities of humans, demons, reapers, angels and possibly a few more,"  Sebastian smiled realizing that William yet knew none of that.

"And you know all of this  how?"

" Oh I am simply better  at socializing than you are, " Sebastian said, casually running his fingers along the woman´s thigh, she was blushing and William noticed how her coat buttons were falsly put together as  when in rush of getting dressed. William shuddered.

" And now this lovely lady will help us our way out of here, won´t she?" But Sebastian´s eyes widened when the woman shook her head and replied in complete terror:" I can not help you with that, sir" it was evident she was terrified of her bosses so much that even a demon couldn't change her mind about this.

" Fine then," Sebastian sighed  " Then I ask that you remove your clothes once more,"

" Good Lord, Michaelis we are in the room!"

" I only want her to take off her coat so I can wear it to get my way out of here, unnoticed,"

" And it has to be a womans coat, doesn't it?" the reaper said dryly.

" I think It´s a nice plan really, We could all work together to get out of here safely!" Arthur commented, William stared at him in disbelief.

***
It was getting darker and darker in the forest, but there was no place to rest in either as woods just kept getting thicker and thicker:" Great! Now we are lost in a dead end forest! Happy?" Eric commented.

"We need to find some place to rest," Alan thought, he was carrying the Young Earl, simply because all else refused to do so.

" You don´t have to carry him, you know," Eric commented.

" He´s asleep what am I to do? Leave him here?"

Grell looked at the two: " Here Alan, let me." He sounded tired and sad so Alan equalled his pace with Grell´s to have a chat with him:" You okay?" he asked.
"You mean besides the fact that William is gone and possibly dead, we are lost in the woods and these freaking branches are hurting and cutting my legs and getting stuck into my hair?! Oh yes  - life is a peach!" Grell had to keep himself from throwing Ciel somewhere into the forest in his frustration.

" Yeah, I´m sorry,"

" Its not your fault," Grell sighed, suddenly he saw a big rock next to them and decided to sit and lean his back against it…. Only to discover that it was really a cave:" Hey, take a look at this!" he pushed away some of the branches and walked inside the cave.

"Nice, we could rest here!"  Ronald said stepping inside, but Grell wasn't listening, he was walking down deeper into the cave, after a while the others followed him:" This isn´t a normal cave,"  Grell muttered as the ground below him turned into a real floor:" What the…" Grell walked on until he and the others reached a large metal door. "Great! Now how do we get inside?"
This is unacceptably short considering the time I have done to write. Please don´t think I´m tired of writing it!! I love it it´s just that somehow writing here doesn´t come as easily as in home. This....is terrible and not well written at all!! I´m so sorry!!! Its all... weird, but i still hope it can be read
