I was currently sitting on a balcony with my aunt, looking over hell. (This is my interpretation, k?)

Most people think hell is just fire, torcher, and the Devil. That's true, but people, or demons, live here. It's like a lost city. The sky is blood red with grey clouds. When it's night, the moon comes up, but once every century the blood moon comes out. That's when the Blood Moon Ball is.

"Your coronation will be at the beginning of the ball that's taking place in one week." Amaya said. I nod my head, never turning to look at her.

"Amaya? Am I ready for this? I mean, I'm still a maid and I just left him and my spouse." I said while looking down. Amaya laughed, her white and black hair gently swaying from the breeze. I saw her hand grab mine and I looked up at her. She had a soft smile on her face.

"You are ready. It's your time. Your mother made sure that you would become queen. You're more than ready." She replied while smiling reassuringly. I smiled back and looked back over hell.

"Maybe, but four months? Is that necessary?" I asked. She sighed.

"Unfortunately, yes it is. You need time to adjust to the palace and stay here in case of an invasion." She said, turning her head.

"Invasion? From what?" I asked while looking at her.

"Angels." She replid. My eyes widened.

"Angels? Why would they go down here?" I asked, a little shocked. Hell is probably the most impure place. And since angels are 'holier than thou' why would they come down here?

"They're trying to erase impure scum like us. And with a new queen the chances are definitely higher." She replied, her voice growing firm as well as her face.

"Eliza." I hissed in realization. She nodded.

"I'm afraid she's planning an attack sometime after the ball. I'm too weak to protect the palace and hell. You're the strongest demon here... you have to." She basically begged, looking at me with wide eyes. I thought for a moment before sighing and nodding.

"I will. I'll protect my fellow demons and family... well, you." I said while smiling.

"Your mother would be proud." She said, a soft melancholy smile on her face. My smile widened.

"Yeah, I know. Thank you." I replied.

Sebastian's POV~

"She left?!" Master asked, almost lividly.

"Unfortunately she has because she needs to fill the role of queen." I replied blankly. Even though I was upset as well, my emotions did not count to the young master.

"Queen? Of hell?" He asked, almost incredulously.

"Yes." I replied. He sighed before rubbing his forehead.

"How long will she be away?" He asked again. I could tell he was getting an oncoming headache.

"Four months." I replied. His eyes snapped open and he sharply stood up.

"Four months?!?!" He bellowed.

"Yes, however, there is another way to see her." I said, a small smirk on my face. He calmly sat back down in his chair.

"How?" He asked.

"The Blood Moon Ball." I replied, my eyes flashing a fuschia.

Your POV~ Timeskip~

A week has passed and It's almost time for the ball. Amaya and I were making sure all of the preparations were ready and done, the invitations were sent, and we knew who was attending and who was not. I was just making sure I was ready. My aunt walked in and she gasped.

"Y/n... ou look absolutely stunning." She breathed, looking at me up and down. I smiled at her from the mirror.

"Thanks." I said while pulling on my gloves.

"Come on. The ball's starting." She said while holding out her arm for me. I sighed before nodding and hooking my arm with hers.

"You'll be a wonderful queen." She said quietly while we walked through two double doors. When we got into the ballroom there was a large staircase in the middle with a large floor filled with people drinking what I assumed to be blood and eating what looked to be souls. They all stopped talking and turned in our direction when the doors opened.

"Demons of all age, size, and gender. I thank you all for coming tonight at the 50th annual Blood Moon Ball. It is an honor to host it." Amaya started while bowing. They all started clapping and cheering.

"However, before we get into it. It's about time that I crown my niece, Y/n L/n, the new queen of hell." She finished. This earned multiple murmurs and whispers.

"Why would you do that?" Someone screamed.

"Y/n is the daughter of M/n L/n. She is the real heiress to the throne. I was only a temporary queen in order for Y/n to grow strong enough." She replied. She then turned towards me and motioned me to speak. I sighed before lifting my head up high.

"My name is Y/n L/n, as you know. Tonight, I'm being crowned queen of hell because my aunt is getting too weak to maintain and protect it. I believe it's going to be a pleasure to help all of you." I called out.

"Why is the queen crowning a child like you?!" Someone shouted at me.

'Tough crowd...' I thought. Amaya then stepped up.

"Y/n is the heiress to the throne and my sister did everything in her power to make sure the crown would go to her. If you have any objections to the true queen's decision, you shall be banished!" She called out. That utterly silenced the crowd. She turned towards me and proceeded to remove her crown. I lowered my head and she put it on my head, then bowed.

"Queen Y/n, it is with great honor to hand you this crown that was worn for generations. May you pass this crown down for more generations to come." She said while going on one knee.

"Thank you very much." I said while smiling. She stood up and nodded.

"Please, give a hand for the new queen of hell!" Amaya called out. Everyone started clapping and sometimes whistling.

"There is one thing that Queen M/n wanted me to do." I called out which silenced the crowd.

"That thing is to crown someone Prince of hell, to rule second in command with me." I added. Some of the guys' eyes lit up.

"However, I have already decided who, and I will not be announcing who it is until I leave after four months." I finished. I then smiled.

"Until then, let's get this ball started!" I called out while running down the stairs. Music swelled up and people started dancing in pairs. People came up to congratulate me, and some thanked me for being a new queen.

"Your majesty?" A familiar voice called out. I smiled and turned around.

"Well hello there Sebastian Michealis. What can I do for you?" I asked with a smirk. He held out his hand towards me with a smirk on his handsome face.

"Shall we dance?" He asked. I smiled and put my hand in his.

"Yes we shall." I said while he pulled me onto the floor. People cleared away on the floor and let us dance.

"Why are you here? Where's Ciel?" I asked. He chuckled.

"Fear not love, he's alright." He replied while twirling me around.

"You didn't answer my question though." I deadpanned.

"Can I not see my girlfriend?" He asked. I smiled.

"I don't know." I replied teasingly. When the song was over, he kissed my forehead then bowed on one knee.

"Stand up, idiot." I rolled my eyes. He stood up and smiled down at me. I grabbed his wrist and dragged him over to Amaya. When I climbed the stairs I stopped in front of her.

"Auntie, this is Sebastian." I introduced. He bowed.

"It's an honor to meet you." He said. Amaya looked at him with a satisfied expression.

"So you're my nieces boyfriend. I can see why you fell for him Y/n." She said.

"Well, it was really the other way around, buuuuut I guess you could say that." I said while chuckling.

"Well, Sebastian make sure you take care of her. And Y/n, don't have kids too soon." She said. I chuckled nervously.

"Um, you won't have to worry about that..." I awkwardly said. She laughed.

"Besides, you're only 15!" She exclaimed.

"I'm 16..." I said while sweat dropping.

"Oh well." She shrugged.

"Well, I'll see you later auntie. I want to take Sebastian some place." I said while grabbing his wrist and walking away, not waiting for a response. When I got to the top floor of the castle I opened two glass French doors that led to a balcony overlooking hell.

"It's gorgeous, right?" I asked once we stopped right behind the railing.

"Yes, but you're even more gorgeous." He said while kissing my cheek. I smiled and tugged on his tie to make his lips meet mine. When we pulled away I looked up at then moon.

"This is the first Blood Moon Ball I've been to, so I had no idea how to act." I confessed. He rose a brow.

"Really? You would of never noticed it." He said with a smirk. I playfully smacked his arm.

"Shut up! I'm not that old!" I exclaimed while smiling, which he returned.

"You should probably go back to Ciel." I said after a moment of silence. He looked at me and sighed.

"Yeah." He agreed. I smiled while pulling out a necklace. It was diamond shaped with a crimson red gem in the middle.

"Here." I said while hooking it around his neck.

"If you ever need my help say my name and the gem will glow while telepathically connecting you to me." I said. He touched it before nodding.

"Thank you." He said while hugging me. I returned the hug by wrapping my arms around his waist.

"Anytime." I replied.

To say the ball was successful is an understatement. It went great. Not only did I see Sebastian, but we actually did a proper 'see you later'. I was in my room, which was huge. There was a king sized bed with a f/c canopy with silk f/c sheets and pillows. The walls were a soft f/c color, along with two huge windows. Two night tables, a bathroom, and a walk-in closet. Needless to say it was huge.

"Keita." I called out. In a flash, a girl with long purple hair with grey eyes appeared.

"Yes, your majesty?" She replied. I turned towards her.

"After the four months are over and I leave hell, I want you to take my place in my absence. Give this to the council." I said while handing her a piece of paper. Shock crossed her features as she stared up at me in shock.

"But your highness...! I'm not worthy enough to take your place!" She exclaimed while dropping down onto her knee. I smiled.

"Nonsense. You're strong enough to rival my aunt at full power. You'll be alright." I said while patting her head. She smiled while nodding.

"Thank you very much your highness!" She said while disappearing in Sakura petals. I sighed.

"Tomorrow is going to be a loooong day." I muttered before crawling into bed.

'Wait... I forgot, I unsealed my powers... I won't be able to sleep....' I thought.

"UGHHHHH!!!"

Ja ne!
