First Stygian Diviner:Apocalypse

Isiah was exhausted to the point where he fell on the ground just without any notice and stayed like that, and there stood the kid he just met right next to him with a cute smile on his face saying his name 'Ciel'.

It seemed that the boy didn't have a place to go to, and the Katarina he mentioned wasn't here either.

Isiah tapped the ground with his palm then said:" Aren't you tired of walking all this distance ?"

The kid didn't set on the ground and instead he kept looking at him innocently, then said:" I am not tired but i am hungry, sir"

"Right, you told me before "

Ciel was looking around him at that moment, Isiah noticed that ciel started to walk again and for that he raised his head from the ground trying to check on him.

The kid was standing near a tree there, without his shoes. He was trying to hit an orange fruit with his shoes, but he was so small and couldn't reach it no matter what .

He didn't even show some attitude when he didn't hit it, he was not hiding any anger or despair because he was just not feeling it.

Isiah kept looking at him for half an hour while he was trying to make the orange fall on the ground.

When he was relieved a bit from his tiresomeness, Isiah sat on the ground with his legs crossed then sighed in a way that made Ciel hear his voice from afar.

Ciel left his shoes on the ground and returned to stand next to Isiah, then said:" Are you awake now, sir?"

Ciel was not talking in a normal way, he was speaking with consideration.A consideration that  a kid his age shouldn't have, it was as if he was afraid that he might annoyed Isiah, that behavior was familiar to him, and that's why Isiah said to him:"You are not annoying me, i am just tired because i walked so much"

The kid then smiled, erasing all those troubled expressions from his face, then went to that tree again and started his  own method to get one orange from it.

Isiah smiled unintentionally as he was looking at him, then stood hardly on his feet and got closer to him.

" So, you are aiming for that one?"

Ciel nodded to him then pointed at the big orange among the others, then said:"That one, sir"

Isiah headed towards that tree and started to climb it slowly, he did this numerous times so he got very used to it, he had so much strength and flexibility and that's why he got Ciel the orange he wanted, he didn't got just one, he got him a lot of them, in this world the orange trees were not that small like on earth they were bigger, and the orange fruits in them were much juicer, and there were a lot of oranges in one tree…

The kid removed his shirt immediately then started to collect the oranges when Isiah was on his way down from the tree.

Isiah looked at his naked body with much concern, even when it was dark the kid's body was filled with bruises to the point where he was just shocked because of it .

Isiah got closer to Ciel trying to check on his body closely, but the kid flinched the moment he felt him right next to him, and dropped all the oranges on the ground immediately.

Isiah raised both his hands on the air, and said with a very calm voice:" Don't worry, i was just …i saw the bruises on your body and that looked very painful"

The kid was looking at him with a scared look, yet he didn't say a thing.

Isiah retreated from him, grabbed one of the oranges that fell on the ground and started peeling it in silence, and when he ended doing it he extended his arm to give it to him.

The kid kept looking at his hand for a minute, Isiah didn't move his hand for the meanwhile, he knew exactly what the kid was going through, he was hesitant, scared, yet hopeful that Isiah would treat him right like any kid who grew up in an abusive family.

The kid finally took that orange from Isiah and started to eat it. He was sweating and breathing heavily because of the effort he made to get the orange, yet on his face there was a lovely smile.

"Without you I would have never noticed that tree, do you want another one?"

Ciel noded to him positively, he didn't even finish the first one yet he was asking for more, Isiah knew that he hadn't been eating in a while and that's why he just started to peel all the orange they gathered and gave it to him…

The kid ate a lot of oranges before he noticed that Isiah didn't have any, and once Isiah gave him a new one, Ciel just pushed his arm towards him gently then said:" You didn't eat, sir"

" Don't think about me, i will eat later, just eat until you are full"Isiah insisted while extending his arm again but Ciel just sat on the ground next to him then said:" You first, sir"

Isiah was not sure of how to treat the kid, but for that moment he just listened to him and ate the orange he peeled.

The kid kept looking at Isiah for a long time while they shared those oranges. Isiah couldn't  know what he was thinking about, so he said :" what were you doing there in the middle of the night, kid?"

The kid kept silent, so Isiah added:" Where is your family? I know that you are not from district one, so where do you live ?

Ciel bowed his head in silence, he even stopped eating the orange that was between his little fingers, his expressions were very sad and frightened .

Isiah knew that he messed the things up, he didn't want to make him upset or anything, but he ended up doing that.

" Sir, can I live with you?"
