Sebastian's POV

A week had passed since the Master had received a letter from Baroness Lugubre. In it she wrote how she was terribly sorry for not being able to make it to the Phantomhive Manor, but would like to meet with the young Master, and thus requested us to stay at the Lugubre Villa for a week starting on the 18th of October. Thus I found myself sitting in a carriage across from an all too irritated young Earl on said day.

"I don't understand why I have to go to HER villa, when I had already invited HER to my manor." The young Master said, as he gazed out at the scenery from the carriage window.

A smirk started to form on my face as I said, "Be as it may that the young Baroness Lugubre declined your invitation to the Manor, it would be rude for a gentleman such as yourself to decline a Lady's call, young Master."

"Shut up Sebastian!" Ceil said aggressively. "The only reason I agreed to come in the first place is because HER maid might be a demon."

From there the conversation ended, as the young Master continued to scowl out the window. My mind on the other hand wandered to memories of a certain Demoness from my past.

I remember all too well what she looked like the first time I saw her. I remember she had white hair that she left to flow loose down her back. The way the moon shone off of pale skin that wasn't covered by her dress. How her voice almost sang the words she said. The twisted smile she would wear from the humans that amused her. However, the one thing I miss seeing about my pet was her beautiful eyes. They were as red as blood, and filled with enough mischief too make you wonder what exactly was going thru her mind.

Unfortunately, one day she disappeared altogether without a trace. And I have been looking for her ever since.

A moment later, and the carriage was slowing down considerably, and I knew that we were very close to the Lugubre Villa. Turning toward the young master, I said, "My Lord, I am afraid I must depart from you now."

The young master turned toward me, a puzzled expression claimed his features as he said, "And why pray tell would you need to do that?"

"Well if this woman is a demoness, and one that I know, it will give her time to flee somewhere until we are to leave if I just waltz in with you. However, if I were to approach her when she was alone, then she would not have just reason to leave the area." I said as a twisted smile graced my lips.

I watched the young Master's expression carefully as he absorbed what I had to say. Finally after a minute, he gave a curt nod, and said, "Go now. However, I expect you to be in that house by Wednesday."

"Yes, my Lord." I said, bowing my head, before swiftly opening the carriage door, and leaping through it and on to the grass a few meters away.

After that, I started running in order to find a space where I would be able to view the Lugubre grounds without being seen.

A smirk crossed my lips as I did this and I thought with a bit of malice, And so the game begins.

Ciel's POV

I can't believe that I have to go talk to some spoiled girl, while Sebastian goes off and waits to play with her maid. I thought in irritation, as I walked up the stairs to the Lugubre Villa. (For only minutes after Sebastian left, we arrived at the Lugubre Villa.) Bard happened to be by my side (since he was the one driving the carriage), and this did nothing to relieve the anger I felt.

Once we came to the door, Bard lifted his hand to knock on the ebony door, but before he could, the door opened itself, and there stood the maid from the picture.

Her hair was so blonde that it was practically white, falling to the small of her back, and was pulled back in a ponytail. Her skin was also very pale, but not enough to make her look sickly. She wore a typical maids outfit, hat and all, and wore white gloves on her hands. However, what took me a back was the fact that her eyes were so orange and filled with mischief that they resembled a cat.

An odd grin crossed her face, as she said, "Ah Earl Phantomhive, my Mistress has been expecting you. Please, do come in and I shall take you to the parlor room to see the Baroness." After that, she turned around swiftly, walking ever so gracefully into the foyer of the Villa.

I followed wordlessly as I meticulously watched the actions of the Lugubre maid. She walked fluidly in a fine posture, as she led us through a few hallways. Every so often, she would look back over her shoulder to see if Bard and myself were following her.

After a few minutes, the woman opened a door to the left, saying in her airy voice, "We're here."

Walking through the door, I saw Baroness Lugubre sitting on a plush violet couch, sipping tea out of a purple cup that had a black patter on it.

The Baroness looked much different from her picture, if that could have even been possible. Her hair hung around her in loose curls that looked as if they were naturally curled that way, and was as red as blood. Seeing as her hair was such a dark color, It made her skin look almost white, giving her a ghostly appearance. Her eyes were closed, so I was unable to see the color of them. The Baroness also wore an elegant lavender dress, that was formfitting at the top, but flowed out at the bottom. All in all, she looked like a porcelain doll, and I was for some reason in awe of her.

"Young Mistress, the Earl Phantomhive is here with a guest." The maid said, as she made her way to stand behind The Baroness Lugubre.

The girl opened her eyes, to reveal a stunning blue-green color, as she looked up at her maid, then to us.

It looked as if she was calculating something in her head the way she stared, and though it unnerved me a bit, I held my regular emotionless expression.

After a moment, a small smile crept on to the Baroness's rosy lips, as she said, "Nevermore, please show the Earl's servant to one of our guest rooms, and leave the Earl and I to talk. I will call you when you are needed."

"Yes, my Lady." The maid, Nevermore said, as she bowed to the Baroness in much the same way that Sebastian does to me. "If you would follow me this way sir." Nevermore said to Bard, and with that the two left the room, leaving me alone to speak with the Baroness.

So that's chap four...

It makes me kind of sad, because I was going to make it longer,and have Raven and Nevermore's POVs in this one, but I thought it would be too jumpy. so their POV's will be in the next chapter.

The next chapter consists of Raven and Ceil's conversation, and Nevermore being confronted by Sebastian. Also note that in future chapters this story may go up to M for there may be some more adult content in them. However, I would like to know what you the readers think about that before I finalize that decision. And if you wouldn't want it, I may end up doing it, but I would alert to when that sort of thing stops and ends.

SO anyway, please review and tell me what's good and what's bad. Sorry this chapter is kind of horrible, but what can ya do? Oh and thanks to everyone that reviewed Chap 3! I really appreciate it ^_^. One last thing before I go I'm also thinking of having a contest for to add another character into the story. It would pretty much be that you would make a character sketch for someone you would want in this story, and on the day I would say the contest would be over, I would sit down, look through the sketches, and pick the one I think would fit most. So also tell me what you would think of that.

Bye now!
