~ The Funtom Space Colony had been rather easy to get into. When people celebrate, they certainly let their guard down. That knowledge made Sebastian Michaelis laugh as he stepped out of his starship, changing from a black flightsuit to a suit with a press of a button. He grinned as he slid a black feathered mask over his face, the material adhering to his skin. This would be fun.
His target was Ciel Phantomhive, a young prince and soon to be king. Or not, as Sebastian was going to kidnap him before that could happen. He had his orders, and he must adhere to them. Sebastian pressed another button, a beep echoing through the hanger as his starship The Raven was securely locked.
Now, it was time to party.
──♚── Ꭲhe festivities seemed to go so slowly, and when they did, Ciel found himself face to face with greedy nobles who wanted the future King to pick their daughters’ hands in marriage. To be honest, Ciel wasn’t interested in it. He wanted to take care of business in the colony, not worry about wives or children at the moment. For Christ’s sake, he only just turned 20. Regardless, the prince had to keep up appearances! With a charming smile, he asked one of the girls to dance with him. It was good to give the nobles a little hope. A jolly rhythm played from the band and the many different advanced instruments they played. Several of them were similar to the instruments of the olden days, but then there were the strange new ones that could sound like an entire orchestra just by itself. It was really lovely.
Ꮃith young maiden in hand, the soon to be king twirled over the dance floor. There wasn’t a lot of domestic things he could do, but at least his mother had invested in teaching him to dance. The beat picked up and soon the dance floor was a flurry of spinning dresses and fancy masquerade masks. It was hard to keep track of your original partner.
