Forbidden Act
"Arnold Trancy will be arriving today for dinner and your sister will be arriving after breakfast" Claude said. Alois looked panicked "He will know something's wrong happened, he will notice that the old man's decorations have been changed" Alois as he stood up and placed both of his hands on the desk "Don't worry, I will work on that. My lord, what preparations shall I do for the arrival of your sister?" Claude questioned. Immediately Alois's worries vanished and his whole face brightens in happiness. "Fix her old room, make sure everything's clean" Alois ordered. Claude kneeled down on one knee and he placed his hand over his heart "Yes, your highness".
Alois walked out his office and went to the dining room. In the room stood Timber, Thompson, Canterbury, and Hannah. On the dining table there was two plates, one big one and a small one, there was also a cup of red wine. The table cloth was white and the utensils were on top of a rectangular purple cloth. On the big plate, there was two sunny side up eggs and on the small plate there was toast. Alois sat down on his chair, and the first utensil he grabbed was the butter knife. He placed the butter knife on the yolk of the egg but not putting presser on it. "Hannah, don't you a think sunny-side-up egg is pitiable? Its shell is broken then it's forced to show an indecorous appearance, then it becomes an eyeball, internal organs, or a plume. And I rob it of all possibilities." Alois said as he pierced the yolk with his butter knife.
Alois sighed and then placed his knife on the purple cloth. Alois grabbed the knife again and he pushed the glass of wine on the table cloth with the knife. Hannah went straight into action by trying to clean the table cloth, "Ahhh!" Alois yelled. Hannah looked at him in the eye to see what was wrong, but that was a BIG mistake. "Ha, ha didn't Claude teach you not to look directly in the eyes of your master? Well if I don't punish, Claude would be very mad and upset" Alois said.
Alois raised his index and middle finger and traveled his fingers to Hannah's eye. Without any hesitation he pushed his fingers in Hannah's eye socket. Hannah gasped in pain and the triplets silently gasped. Alois yanked his fingers out of Hannah's eye socket and Hannah collapsed on the floor. The dining room doors suddenly open and entered Claude. Claude walked over to Alois and took out a handkerchief, with the handkerchief Claude cleaned Alois's bloody fingers.
"You three, clean up here" Claude ordered to the twins, the triplets nodded. Two of the triplets went to help Hannah get up and the other one went to clean the blood.
"Stop here Karen, pick up my suitcases. We are not far from my little brother's estate" AnnaBeth-Victoria Trancy said. "Yes, my lady" Karen said, Karen picked up AnnaBeth's 4 suitcases and she dropped them in front of the Trancy estate. "Karen are those all my suitcases?" questioned the silver-head women. "Yes it is my lady, should I knock now" Karen questioned. "Yes" Anna Beth said, Karen was about to knock but a purple head triplet beat her to it. "May I help you" a purple head demon asked. "Yes, I'm Alois's sister, May I come in?" asked AnnaBeth. "Yes, you may" the demon answered, AnnaBeth walked in with Karen following behind, carrying 4 suitcases that belonged to her mistress. "Can you not tell anybody that I'm here? I want to surprise them" AnnaBeth said to the purple haired demon. "Alright, my lady, shall I take you to your assigned room" questioned the demon. "escort my maid; I'm going to look around. Karen unpack my things" AnnaBeth said "Yes, My lady" said the demon and the human.
The demon and the human left, leaving AnnaBeth behind, AnnaBeth started walking a familiar path, when she reached the dining room she saw Claude Faustus, her brother's butler and her friend. Claude was standing on a white banister "1, 2, 3"; Claude suddenly began to tap dance on the banister. He stopped and threw his glasses in the air; he jumped of the banister and swung himself on the chandelier. Claude jumped off the chandelier and lifted the rug in the air. Claude jumped in the air and started throwing utensil on the table, and then red plates. He painted the walls red and the window edges gold, then he replaced the white cloth with a red one. Claude landed on the floor with his head looking up at the ceiling; his glasses fell and landed on his eyes.
"Day into night, sugar into salt, living to dead, dark blue into gold" Claude said "That's what makes a Trancy butler" AnnaBeth finished for Claude. Claude looked up and saw AnnaBeth leaning on the door, "AnnaBeth-Victoria Trancy" Claude breathed out as he looked at her from top to bottom. AnnaBeth was a gorgeous human. AnnaBeth has silver hair that reached her rear, it was straight as paper. She had blue eyes that looked like the ocean itself; she had a body that left you breathless. She was a divine creature.
AnnaBeth stood up straighter and walked over to Claude. Claude stared at her and she stared back, "Those five star cooks food was nothing compared to yours" AnnaBeth said. Claude laughed a little "You flatter me" Claude said. "Claude why hasn't my –"Alois didn't finish his sentence. There in front of him was his 19 year old sister; Alois's face broke into a huge smile "Anna!" Alois yelled in excitement. He ran to his sister and hugged her.
AnnaBeth wrapped her arms around Alois and stroked his blond hair "I missed you so much" Alois said. AnnaBeth looked at him "I missed you as well, little brother" AnnaBeth said. Alois hugged her tighter "Promise me that you won't leave again" Alois said. AnnaBeth looked at Alois "I Promise".
"Uncle Arnold!" Alois yelled as he ran to hug his uncle. Other than Arnold there was a priest and the Viscount Druitt. Claude and AnnaBeth stepped out "Is that young Maiden betrothed"" questioned the Viscount. Alois looked afraid to answer "Noo..." Alois said. "I'll betroth her" Viscount Druitt said. Claude growled quietly "I'm fine" AnnaBeth said. The Viscount walked up to her and pulled her body against his body. "Viscount Druitt" the priest yelled appalled.
Even the priest was stunned with her beauty, but that's not a way to treat a lady. AnnaBeth smiled at the Viscount and untangled herself from him. "Shall we go in" Claude said through clenched teeth. The guest looked wearily at them "Don't be scared, we won't eat you" AnnaBeth said. They all laughed and entered the estate. While Claude gave the tour of the house the Viscount clinged onto AnnaBeth.
The priest and the Viscount finally left but Arnold was still there. Alois, Claude and AnnaBeth were on the balcony and Alois threw money at Arnold. AnnaBeth looked up at the sky and saw the dark clouds "There's going to be a storm" AnnaBeth stated. Alois and Claude noticed as well. AnnaBeth turned around and walked to her room.
AnnaBeth changed into her night gown and went to travel the mansion. AnnaBeth accidently dropped something but with a raise of her hand she stopped it in mid-air with her index finger she put it back in place. Then there was a knock, AnnaBeth opened the door and there stood a man with a black trench coat and a black top hat. "A storm has come" the stranger said, AnnaBeth felt as if she knew this man but she couldn't exactly tell "What brings you here at this time" Claude asked as he came to the door. "I was caught outside in the storm, might I trouble you for nights' lodgings" Asked the stranger. Then Alois came, "wow! He's so filthy he's like a drowned rat" Alois said. AnnaBeth and the stranger frowned.
"Alois, be nice" AnnaBeth warned, Alois ignored her, "but you smell nice. We'll let him stay with us, got that Claude" Alois said. Claude nodded; AnnaBeth clenched her hands and walked away.
AnnaBeth continued her traveling around the house, but when she walked around a certain guest room she saw Hannah running off somewhere drenched in water. AnnaBeth shook her head in disapproval and walked to the kitchen.
AnnaBeth was in the kitchen eating with the triplets by her side when, a young man around the age of 20 ran by the kitchen. He had black hair and red eyes and he was slender but muscular. AnnaBeth's eyes widen, she has seen this man before.
Knives started to fly through the room and AnnaBeth was thrown over someone's shoulder and took somewhere. AnnaBeth looked up and saw purple hair and she sighed in relief. AnnaBeth was finally put down and she looked around and noticed that she was at the staircase.
AnnaBeth blinked and all of a sudden she had a flash back, 'mom where's Declan?' 9 year old AnnaBeth asked, 'he left' AnnaBeth's mother replied. AnnaBeth gasped and stepped back, AnnaBeth slowly started to fall back but she was grabbed by the intruded and placed on the solid ground.
AnnaBeth looked up and was met with a pair of red eyes; the intruder winked at AnnaBeth and then kicked the chandelier. The lights went off and Alois screamed, Claude clapped his hands and the lights came on. Then there was a crashed and the intruder left.
AnnaBeth narrowed her eyes, he'll be back.
