Robin looked around to realize he was in his own room and sighed and pulled the covers over himself to try and go back to sleep. But then he realized something. He was warm but he could feel an unnatural chill. His eyes widened as the familiarity with the chill. And it was a dreadful one.<br/><br/>The Dragon was here. In this very mansion at this very moment. "One part is true you impudent fool." Uttered a voice. "I am projecting my voice, and the very feeling of my Presence. But I am not here to speak to you. Though if it wills it, I will take care of you later...fool."<br/><br/>Robin began to shake in fear. He knew it here would only spell danger for himself and others.<br/><br/>----<br/><br/>The Dragon's voice then went into the mind of Ellie Phantomhive. "So little human, you're the one debating about the curse, aren't you?" It uttered, "You are tempted to keep him the way he is, right where I left him, unaging, and powerful. What if I told you there was a way for the immortality to be removed and the power stay?"<br/><br/>The Dragon chuckled. "All you have to do, is to find the very weapon Robin stole from me. And both desires could be met. He gets his life back, and you a powerful warrior servant. Think on it, but think fast. You only have until your next birthday." And like that, the Dragon's presence was gone.<br/><br/>----<br/><br/>The moment it was gone Robin hugged himself and rubbed his shoulders. He hated himself, he hated the dragon for tricking him. Nothing he could do would cause the Dragon to be persuaded otherwise, unless, it was here to make a wager.<br/><br/>But what could it offer Ellie if it wanted to wager with her?
