"In the end, she is still yours." - Ciel's POV

You open your eye, look around trying to find that one person who longs for something on the other side of the wall. It was weird to you at first knowing about the wall and your ability, but at least nothing had happened so far, not anything to your knowledge. You were just that one person who could walk through those glass walls, and you were just that one person who has helped others walking through it.

~oOo~

You still remember that first time when you tried to help the elders reach to each other. It was a painful sight to watch because the wall between them was not thick at all, but they still couldn't break it. You watched them. You watched the woman cry, hurting because of the man on the other side was broken because of his fiancé's death. You watched the man. You watched him try to break the wall, but was impossible because of his past memories. You kept seeing tears from both of them. You saw him make a scratch on the wall, you saw him grit his teeth, and you saw a faint soul hug him. You saw her stick to the the wall, you saw her shed the tears along with the man, you saw her heart slowly shatter into pieces. You saw the despair in both of the humans' souls. But you still needed an encouragement to take action so a voice help you out. You heard it say, "Connect the string, they are meant to be together." So you moved, took the woman's hand and led her through the wall, because you are the only one who can do it.

"Thanks Ciel, you helped us a lot."
"Welcome, stay together. I'll support you two along with the gang."

~oOo~

The result was satisfied for you three, so you started to have some confidence. Then you moved on to the next wall, seeing some weird stuffs happen. You appeared on the boy's side, feeling the hot temperature rise after every hour. You looked through the wall, seeing an ice cave cover the girl's surrounding. It took you a while to get what exactly was happening, but when you caught their eyes, you knew exactly what was the problem. You saw her figure flash in his eyes, you saw her beauty stay in his head, and you saw his love is trying to get through the wall. You saw the same thing on the other side, but her acceptance was what missing.Their red string was there, they were meant to be together, but they just didn't accept that fact. You walked away from the boy, through the wall and reached to the girl. Ahh it was cold, so cold that your fingers were soon turned blue by sudden drop of temperature. You reached to the girl, hugged her and whispered some comforting words, telling her it's okay to love no matter who the other person is. And the you just lured the little girl to the other side.

"Well Aisha, I do not know why you came to me but I'm just gonna say, you need to accept your feelings. Everything is going to be just okay."
"I finally understand why Rena and Raven told me to ask you. Thanks Ciel."
"Glad to help. The gang will support you two so hope to see some blooming flowers~"

~oOo~

Now, it's your problem. You opened your eyes just to hear a loud cry but to see nothing. You wonder how much pain is that person holding to cry out this loud. The voice echoes from distance, and the figure is nowhere to be found. This person must has been really hurt, so you run. You don't care where are you running but you just run. You need to run before that frail heart breaks into pieces, or worst. You need to find that person. You need to see that person. You need to help that person walk through the wall before it's too late.

But... what is this? You have reached to the end of the loud cry, and that person is fascinating you with her beauty. You stand there and stare, you choose to have a distance so that person will not notice you. What should you do? You have a feeling this is your woman. You have a feeling that you should keep her for yourself. You have a feeling that you should steal her from the bastard on the side who made her cry. But if she is here, aren't you supposed to connect the string? Aren't you supposed to lead her through the wall? Aren't you supposed to support the two?

"Elesis, do you hate demons?"
"Yes, but not you and Lu. And you see, my fire can only burn demons, but it isn't affecting you. So don't worry, I don't hate you or Lu."
"You know, you are such a splendid and strong woman. I admire you for that."

~oOo~

He made her cry, he broke her heart, he destroyed her hope, so is he really the one for her? The wall is here to show that there is a string to connect. The wall is here to show you who to support. But the wall is never here to show you your woman. Yet, you feel like this is your other half. Should you really help her or steal her away from the man?

"Elesis, will you go out with me?"
"Are you sure? I would burn you to ash."
"Haha, I won't mind if it was you."
"Heh... then sure. Hope to burn you someday."
"You are sure funny Elesis."

~oOo~

You hold out your hand. Stealing her or not, you need to think twice again. The wall is here is for a reason, your doing is also for a reason, and your ability is for the same thing. So should you? The man on the other side does not deserve to have her, but what about you? You suppose to connect the two of them, and now you are thinking about stealing her against your duty.

"Elesis, as a demon, I don't have the right to ask this, but will you agree to marry me and keep my human part alive forever?"
"I..."

~oOo~

Her hand is really close to yours now, you could just grab it and get her away from this wall, so no more pain would stay in her heart. But would it really be ok? You need an answer before everything goes wrong. This is just too hard for you.

"Yes."

~oOo~

You feel her hand on yours, you feel the warm of the person you love. It seems like she accepted you, so you pull her up and give her a tight embrace to calm her painful heart down. "No more," you said. "No more." You comforted. "No more." You decided.

"Ciel, will you accept this woman to be your one and only soulmate for eternity?"
"I... will... not."
"C-Ciel?"
"I'm here to celebrate the big day for Elesis, not to marry her. Add will kill me if I do haha."

It's a painful decision, but it's a right thing to do. Sometimes, you just have to hurt yourself to do the right thing. And plus, when you looked to the other side, you saw the reason why they should be together. And so, you walk through the wall with the person you love, enjoying your tiny moment before handing her away.

"Hey Add, come up here. She is your bride right? And don't worry Elesis, I did enjoy all the moments we were together. But it seems like Add would fit the role of being your husband than me."
"I... I... Thank you so much Ciel. Thank you so much."
"You are very welcome Elesis. Hope you two will stay together. And take care of her you Albino. She is a true goddess."
"Kek, I don't need your advice. But thanks, bro."

~oOo~

And you walk away, leaving them together happily behind. Time to move on.

"Even when there is a wall separating you two,
Even when you didn't look back,
Even when you broke her heart,
Even when there is me in front of her,
Even when there is me looking at her,
She still only wants you to look back.

Your red string is just too strong to be cut,
And it's too weak to be separated.

In the end, she is still yours."

~=~=~=~=~=~~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=

Omake:

"Hey servant, where are you going? You supposed to go this way!" You turn you head to the voice of your master. Now you think about it, where was she all the time? And why is she here at this time anyway?

"Huh? Lu?" You met her wide grind. Then she leads you to some where you don't know, but you still follow because you believe you should. It feels like she is leading you to a bright future.

"You know Ciel, I had been following you all the time waiting for a day that you would need my help." She said, finger moves to make curves on the air. You just listen and follow her around. You didn't know how to answer back because you have never pay attention to what behind you, just only the things that were in front you. "And today is the day that you would be thankful of me. See this wall right here? It's yours."

You look at the blurry wall in front of you. This is yours? Why is it so different? You cannot even see the other side of it.

"Your wall is different because you never pay attention to what was around you. Your other half is on the other side, and you had walked passed her at least 10 times without noticing. She has been waiting here for a long time." Your master knocked on the wall showing you how hard it is. It must have been your fault for hardness to be here. But hey, with your ability, you can still walk through it right? So you try and hit your face hard on the glass surface.

"No use. It's your wall, you have to break it in order to get through it. But don't worry, I'm here to help." And you see her punch the wall, breaking it like a piece of cakes.

"Hey Ciel, is it really ok to let her go?"
"Yes, I'm totally fine."
"If you said so. Well I have some business need to handle, you stay here  and wait to keep me some food, I'll be right back as soon as possible."

Then you see her, you see your beautiful half patiently waiting for you.

"Hey Ciel, can I sit here?"
"Ah sure, Lu won't be back until the ceremony end for food so yeah, feel free to sit Ara."

The end~

Jk~

You stare at her in disbelief, but she just grins in return and pushes you to your smiling half. Then she explained. "Well, I broke my own wall without you and thus, I gained this ability! Then we started to go and look for you to help you break the wall, but only managed to meet Ara so we kept going until we saw you lead Rena through the wall. It was surprising to see you walk through walls, but we still followed you. Though I had to clean up after your mess because the wall might leave some problems on later in their relationship."

You thanks her, then laugh at your own doing. Oh how silly of you to ignore the wall like that.

"Oh and here, meet my half." A figure steps out and you almost fall to the ground.

"Ciel!!"
"Yes?"
"I'm getting married."
"PFFT. WHAT?! WHO?! HOW?! WHEN?!"
"I'm getting married. It's Ran the demon in Hamel. He proposed to me. And next week. So hope to see you!"

~oOo~

I was thinking about the whole thing to choose a good direction to go with this last piece.  So it took more time to update this. Also because I gave Ciel too much spotlight than I supposed to. And there you go, feel the twist up to your spine!!! (Does that even make sense?) See you later in other future stories!!
