Chapter 1
'What am I doing?', 'Why am I here?' The questions come to my mind like a record player and I can't stop it. I always feel sick and I can't ignore it. I always feel sad because of my mother's lost and I never met my father I don't remember anything about myself I don't even remember my name. I do know that I have blackish brown hair that goes to my legs; I have tan skin, red eyes, and a personality that said "shyness".
I ask myself 'Why was I even born in this world?' I don't even know myself. The only thing I love is Earth. I love the Earth because it accepts me to live in the field; to sleep in the grass. I survive by the fruits that grow on trees and bushes I drink water from the river itself. I feel like mother earth is my home I love its colors and I mostly love the season of fall because that means a new beginning.
I had been living in the forest for 15 years and I had a normal life. My mother died by an unknown illness I don't know my father my mother told me that father left my mother before I was born. But I put the past behind me I had the Earth as my home. I would go to London town from time to time to meet the people that were my friends like the Undertaker. I would go into his shop, tell each other jokes, eat bone cookies and tea, and leave to greet more people.
It's like a routine every day. The one thing I hate about everyday life is when the men who live in the alleyways try to use me for their own entertainment or abuse me. But they fail at those attempts because of my red eyes at least that is what I think it is. They would say that I'm a monster, a beast. To tell you the truth I admit that I feel like a monster because every time that I see a dead person with blood covered on it my taste buds have a craving and I would feel so hungry. When I tasted the person's blood it tasted so good it made me want to have more.
I wouldn't say I'm a vampire because if I was I would be burning in the sunlight and I would be so pale. But since I'm not a vampire then what am I?
One day when I was in the town of London walking to the Undertakers shop I found a boy that was selling newspapers for free. I thanked the boy for the newspaper and read what it said. Nothing was new except something caught my eye. In the newspaper is said that the Earl Alois Trancy is looking for a new butler I looked at the boy in the picture he had blond hair, sky blue eyes, a purple waistcoat, booty shorts, and high knee boots. Behind the boy was a butler behind him he looked scary he had golden eyes, glasses, and a black tailcoat with a suit.
Something about the man in the picture looked different. I decided to ask the Undertaker maybe he could help me. I walked at the Undertakers and when I got there he already had company he told me not to disturb him when he has company so I decided to wait on the front porch. It took 10 minutes when he was done because two people came out it was a boy and a man.
The boy had midnight hair, an eye patch on his right eye, dark blue eyes, and his clothing looked like the nobles would wear. Behind him was a man in black he had a tailcoat, black silky hair, and his eyes were red like mine. I was shocked when I saw his eyes he just smirked and left me behind. 'Who was that?' I thought to myself I walked in the Undertakers shop. "Undertaker I need to speak with you" I said as he was hiding somewhere. "Hehehehe~ what do you need to talk about Miss grave~" he said with that chuckle of his and once again it send me shivers down my spine. The reason he called me grave is because that is my nickname to him.
"I need to talk to you about- well you see I found this newspaper and when I read it said that the Trancy manor needs a new butler. When I looked at the guy in the picture he looked different and when the two people walked out of your shop the man in black looked different as well and he had my red eyes. I need your help" I said "Well~ I would help you if you tell me what you need help with~" he said as he appeared next to me with a wide smile. I was used to it because he does it to me every day. "Oh well I was thinking if you could help me figure out who those two men are because they had the same aura in them and I also sensed that they felt like me". "Well~ which one you want to research on first~ Miss grave" he said as he went behind his counter to grab a jar filled with bone cookies. "Well I guess I could research on the man that was in the newspaper" I said with a guess look.
"They said that they need a new butler so I was hoping if you could dress me up as a butler" I said. "Well I think I just know what to do~" he said with delight he then grabbed my arm and led me to the back room. He pointed at a chair so I could sit down I did as I was told and sat down. "What are you doing undertaker?" I said with curiosity "Well~ if you want to be a butler~ I'm going to have to cut your hair~" he said as he took out a pair of siccors. "WHAT?" I yelled "No way you're are not going to cut my hair besides you're a guy and you have long hair!" I yelled once again.
"Yes~ but I am the Undertaker~ butler's don't have long hair" he said I just sighed with defeat. "Fine cut away" I said with a little irritation. The Undertaker was standing behind me with a creepy smile and started to cut away.
After he was finished I stood up and looked at myself in the mirror. My hair was way short I barley even recognized myself my hair was to my neck and I felt so light. "Now~ since we have your hair done~ it's time for your outfit" he said I agreed he then took out a bag of coins out of his sleeve and handed it to me. He told me to buy a butler suit I nodded and walked out of the Undertakers shop.
After I got my suit and all I went back to the Undertakers shop. I went through the door "Undertaker I'm back with my suit" I said "Good~ now what we need to work on is your breast~" he said with a creepy smile. I shuddered a bit but I had to admit my boobs were big. The Undertaker gave me a roll of duct tape so I can tape my breast. He led me to the back room so I can change into my suit.
After I was done changing Undertaker took a look at me and said that I look like a girl with man looking features. I smiled with relief my chest was soft but it actually look like I had a man's chest. "Now~ since were done with everything~ you should go to the place your going~" the Undertaker said I nodded and took my leave.
The newspaper had the address to the Trancy manor and I kept it in my head. It took at least 3 hours of the walk but I finally made it. It was a huge mansion it had light blue roses in the garden and everything was perfect. Somehow I had a bad feeling something was in that mansion and somehow it smelled like me and I wanted to find out.
I walked up to the mansion doors when I was on the porch I saw a spiders web in the corner of my eyes. I almost freaked out because spiders are very creepy I mean I know there part of the woods and all but they are very creepy. I decided just to ignore it I knocked on the big wooden doors then came out a butler he was the same guy in the newspaper. He still had that tailcoat and those scary golden eyes actually when you look a little closer there actually kind of sexy at the same time.
"May I help you" he said as I snapped out of my thoughts "Oh yes I am here for a job as a butler" I said in my deep voice and it actually worked. Then a little boy about my age came out behind the butler and looked really happy he was the same boy that was in the newspaper as well "Finally someone finally came!" the boy said with excitement "Claude lead this man to his room" the boy said the butler just looked a little mad but he obeyed with a bow and said "Yes your highness".
