~ Sebastian sighed. Well, it was worth a shot. He moved to be behind Ciel, almost teleporting, and slapped a membrane over his mouth that would prevent him from screaming. He grabbed the prince’s hands and pushed him towards the railing, pawing through his pockets for any sort of panic button or electronic device. He found several and tossed them over the railing.
He glanced around once more. They hadn’t attracted any attention. Good. Sebastian picked up Ciel, holding the boy to his chest, and jumped onto the railing. He paused there for a dramatic moment before jumping off again.
His feet hit the grass with a quiet thud and Sebastian began to run towards the hanger where The Raven was docked.
──♚── Ciel was just about to make a break for the door when that membrane was slapped across his lips. He tried to yell, but the special device rendered him completely silent. The boy was about to reach up and tug at it, but the next thing he knew, he was bent over the railing and all his panic sensors were dug from his pockets. The prince tried to struggle, but this man was strong. Almost inhumanly strong.
Before he knew it, he was hefted up into the man’s arms. He kept trying to scream into that membrane, yelling to be put down, hollering for the guards, but it was no use. He needed to get it off. He screamed as they fell from the railing, and closed his eyes tightly, expecting the man to be hurt from such a height. When he hit the ground gracefully and took off, the boy was as confused as he was frightened.
At that point, several of the guards had noticed Ciel’s absence from the balcony. An alert went up and several made their way out just in time to see the man disappear into the distance with their prince. That’s when the order to start shut down procedures of the ship dock. Two minutes and counting until the bay doors would seal completely. All the while, Ciel was struggling and trying his best to slow the man down.
