I ran down the old London streets trying to get away from the guys who were trying to beat me up. I ran as fast as I could and down to an alley, "Dammit, a dead end." I turned around and standing there were 3 boys no more than maybe 2 or 3 years older than me. They walked up to me in no rush as I backed away from them till I hit the back, I looked behind me then back forward where I got a punch to the face by the oldest kid, Jim, he grabbed my shirt and threw me on the ground and started to kick me and the others joined in. After they were over he spit on me, "Stupid kid, don't come around us again."

and his friends did the same then walked off. I was surprised I could stand up but I did, *Stupid boys need to stop fighting damn strangers.* I thought dusting myself off. I walked to the end of the alley and stared out, *Good no ones coming.* and I ran out through the streets trying to keep my head low till another group of kids who hated me saw me. I began to run faster as they started to pick up but as I did I didn't notice the man in front of me caring a crate of tea I suppose. I bumped in and he dropped it and the whole thing busted and tea was everywhere, "Hey you little brat what the hell do you think your doing?!" he yelled grabbing my shirt collar and bringing me close to his face. Commence sarcasm, 3, 2, 1, "Oh well you see I thought I'd just run into someone for fun even though there were guys chasing after me, trying to see how many people I can anger here till I get killed." and I smirked. The mans frown grew if that was possible and he threw me on the ground, "That tea was for Earl Phantomhive damn brat." but as he said that I was slowly making my escape till I bumped into the kids one grabbed my wrist and punched me in the face then pushed me away and I bumped into a tall man in a black suit, *A butler?* I looked up and he looked down. I quickly rushed away from him, I mean I was laying on him, and turned back to face him but one the kids grabbed my wrist again,

"Hey were the one you should be paying attention to not some old man."

"I'm sorry Little Pim, I didn't mean to hurt your feelings." but that just got me a punch in the face.

"My name isn't Little Pim."

"Your right I guess it's not but you get angry way to fast, one day you'll punch the wrong person and pyu, your dead." I smirked again.

"Tch!" and he hit me again square in the face, "Stupid kid."

"Hey you boys stop it I can't have blood around here!" said the man who had the tea, the butler and him were talking trying to agree to something. As Little Pim went to hit me again, ignoring the man, I ducked and pushed him a side, forcing him to let go and falling face first to the ground. One of his friends was about to hit me back when the butler caught his punch, "I do believe that man had said stop." we all looked up at the tall man, even Pim whose nose was bleeding, and we all flinched at the same time, he might have been smiling but that was the most scariest smile I have ever seen. He let go of his fist and the boys ran away helping Pim up. I watched the kids run off then went to run myself when he grabbed my shirt collar, I turned back to him and looked up, he wasn't smiling this time which was even scarier if possible. I flinched normally then spoke,

"What I'd do to piss you off to? Did I steal something from you so your gonna beat me up?"

"Well not exactly but you did just pour all that tea over there that was supposed to be given to me young master. I'll have to find it else where which is going to cause I real hindrance to my work."

"Oh boo woo, go get it somewhere else I don't care, and you can tell your little master the same thing." and I pulled away from him.

"Or you can tell him yourself."

"What?"

Suddenly I was thrown into a horse-drawn carriage and the man climbed in with me,

"What the hell?! You can't just kidnap me!" I yelled though I already knew it was in vane, kidnappers don't like to hear you whine and cry like that.

"Please stop your whining," See? "Since you don't have any money to pay for all that tea I will just have to simply see what my young master would like done with you."

I rolled my eyes and looked out the window, I saw Jim out there looking at it and I stuck my tongue out at him. His face was red and angry and I laughed, ignoring the butler sitting across from me. I sat back again and then continued to look out the window boredly, resting my head on the palm of my hand.

"Your really quiet for someone who was just took'n against there own free will."

"You said stop whining so I stopped, it won't get me anywhere so why do it?" I asked.

"Oh so you've been took'n before?"

"Yeah, so what? I've angered enough people to the brink of insanity, some people may just want me gone or at least to stop."

"You're that great of a nuisance?"

"Probably, but I don't care, it's fun to see them get red-faced and angry, even if the consequence isn't so great it's still fun and worth it."

"Worth it?"

"Yeah, worth it, they piss me off I piss them off 10 times harder, beating me up is just the catch."

"So you like to get into fights and cause trouble?"

"Of course, what boy doesn't right?"

"I suppose your right." *His voice just sounded a little off, as if he was trying to make sure of a boys mind.*

"I just go a little overboard I suppose."

The rest of the ride was in complete silence, just how I like it, silence. He had tried to make small talk and start a conversation but it all went down in vain when I finally just said, "Will you please just shut up? My days been pretty crapy today like always, and I would just like to sit and stair out this window." and he did. When we got there there was a huge mansion, the carriage man left and right when he was gone crazy things started to happen. I saw a boy running after some big white dog, I heard something shatter, and a big explosion sounded and I could see smoke. I finally looked up at his annoyed irritated face, "Are you guys in a circus?" I asked curiously, "'Cuz you gotta lot of circus acts it seems." He sighed and looked down at me, "We are not in a circus, these are just the servants." and as if on cue they all came out.

"Hey Sebastian who's the little kid?" asked the blonde orangish haired kid.

"He's so adorable with all that dirt over his face." a red-head stated.

"He's just some little squirt who fallowed you right?"

"I'm not some little squirt kid you mhmhmhmhmh." the butler whose name I suppose Sebastian put his hand over my mouth so I couldn't say the rest,

"He is one of are guests and will probably start working for us."

I bit his hand and he let go, "I'm not no stupid worker! I don't even know how to clean my own shoes what makes you think I can clean some stupid big house?!"

Ok so maybe that was a little overboard, so I know how to clean my shoes I just couldn't think of something up fast enough.

"Yes I relies it'll be hard for you considering you can't even clean your own face."

I rubbed some dirt off my face which must have looked adorable 'cuz red-head started to gawk.

He sighed then turned to the others, "This is Finnian or Finny are gardener, Mey-Rin are maid, and Barldroy are chef."

"Nice to meet you!" they all said at once."

"And I'm Sebastian, the butler."

Then the big dog that I saw ran back and blew some fire, "And this is Pluto!" Finny yelled giving Pluto a hug on the muzzle.

I flinched back scared for my life, "How in the world do you have such a big dog?!"

"We got him!" Finny yelled again.

"Now for your name." Sebastian said.

"My name?" I asked.

"Yes your name, we have to call you something other than boy."

"My names, uh, Ryan."

"Ok Ryan come with me then." and I fallowed him into the big mansion where I saw the broken platters and smoke surfacing from the kitchen. We walked to a big door where he knocked, I heard a child's voice telling him to come in and he opened the door, sitting there at a desk with papers everywhere was a child my age it seemed, he looked up and saw me and looked confused, "Sebastian who is the boy?" he asked.

"I can speak for myself thank you very much, I'm Ryan."

"He's the boy who dumbed all the tea we were supposed to have." Sebastian replied ignoring me.

"It's not like it was on purpose! I was running from 5 kids who wanted to beat me, I'm gonna run thank you very much, I say it was his fault you have no tea he should've been watching in front of him."

"I believe that was you who should've been watching."

"Tch!"

"I brought him here for you to decide what to do with him to repay you back for the tea."

"What can we do with some little boy? What about his parents?"

"I'm not some little boy! I bet were the same age so if I'm some little kid then so are you, and I don't have parents I'm a runaway orphan and there ain't no way in hell am I going back to that place either!" I yelled at him, he's really starting to piss me off, I just want'a punch him in the face so bad!

"We might be the same age but mind set wise," Did he just call me stupid?! "and I suppose we could use another worker if he doesn't brake anything."

"I already told your butler I don't do clean, so sorry about your luck kid."

"You'll learn. Sebastian get him in the bath and give him some new clothes, he can be your butler in training."

"What?!"

"Yes young lord." and he bowed, after I didn't he brought one of his arm up and pushed me down to bow with him. We both stood up at the same time before I could slap his hand away and fallowed him out of the room.

"Don't ever fucking touch me again. Geez, I can't believe I got into this mess."

"You might think your the only one unhappy but so am I, I have to train some kid to be a butler, when ever you screw up I screw up."

"I'm not some kid! And that'll make you angry?"

"Of course." *Another Ciel.*

"Then I will be the worst butler ever, this is gonna be fun."

"If I'm supposed to be training you then I also get to punish you, I am not such a nice person as you would think I am."

I rolled my eyes, "Yeah whatever."

Again we walked in silence and he stopped at a room, he opened it and walked inside, I fallowed and another door was opened to a bathroom with a big tub inside, "You get undressed and start the water and I'll bring some other clothes." He then left without a second thought. I started the water like he said then waited. After it was all full I made sure he wasn't there then closed the door locking it and began to undress. I stepped into the bathtub and let the warm water consume me, *When was the last time I took a bath?* I asked myself, but that didn't really matter 'cuz here I was in one felling like heaven. Suddenly the door opened and I hid under the water. Standing there was Sebastian, he must've picked the lock or something.

"How the hell can you be a girl?!" Ciel yelled at me.

"Well you see Ciel when a male and a female love each other very much they-"

"I already know that! I meant you looked so much like a guy when we first met you! And now your suddenly a girl!"

"Well you see I like to be more boyish then girlish, I hate all the make-up and hair crap, not to mention the dresses I hate most. So, do I get to go now since I'm a girl?" I asked resting my head into the to connected palms behind my head.

"No, we'll just make you a maid."

"A maid?! I just told you I don't like dresses! Are you gonna torture me or something?!"

"Maids wear dresses, and no we don't intend to torture you or anything."

"If I was a boy before why can't I be a boy now?" I began to whine childishly, "I hate dresses." I said bringing out the word 'hate' longer then all the other.

"Because I can't have a girl running around like a guy, now get out of those clothes and get into a more appropriate outfit."

"Ugh, I already hate this, will I have to be trained by the other maid Mey-Rin?"

"Of course not."

"So what's your real name?"

"It's Lily."

"Now go then miss Lily."

I groaned again and walked out of the room, "Someone shoot me now." I said aloud. I walked back to my room and there on the bed was a stupid dress.

"Gah I hate dresses!" I had been trying to get this damn corset on and it wasn't working at all. I threw the maids dress on the ground and sat on the bed with the corset loosely around me, "I don't know why I couldn't just stay a boy, what difference did it make?" I laid on my bed and decided I would stay there. The door opened and standing there was Sebastian, he saw me laying there and sighed, "You can't even dress yourself." I got up and threw the maid dress at him this time, "Shut up! These things are stupid and hard!" He began to walk forward and I stood up making sure the forest top wouldn't fall, "What are you doing?"

"Turn around."

"Why?"

"Just do it."

I did as told and suddenly I began to feel it tighten, "Hey not to tight!" he tightened it more though and I squeaked, "I said not so tight you-" another pull.

"Lesson 1 in being a lady; they don't curse."

"Bull if I'm gonna suddenly stop cursing!" yet another squeeze and then the dress was over me and that was also fixed. I turned around and looked at myself in the mirror, "Wow this is strange, a dress? It won't last I can tell you that much."

"If it doesn't last we just get another one."

I groaned, "Uuugh, I hate them though."

"Yes we know."

"Then why the hell am I in one then hm?"

"Because maids wear dresses."

"Yeah, they also clean, another thing I don't like."

"You'll learn."

"Yeah, yeah, yeah, I know, I know, sheesh."

"If you know then stop complaining."

"I can complain as much as I fu- Ow! Why'd you do that for?!" as I was about to drop an f-bomb he whacked me in the head.

"Because I told you ladies don't curse."

"And I told you no where in he- Ow! Quit it!"

He smiled and I glared, *I already hate this job.*

We walked out of the room and down the stairs, when we reached the bottom he turned to me, "No clean these stairs with this feather duster." he said handing me one.

"What?! You want me to clean these stairs with that small thing?"

"Yes I do, what kind of maid would you be if you couldn't something as simple as that?"

I sighed in defeat and took from him and started to dust.

"I expect you to be done by dinner."

"'K."

"Finally I'm done." I stood on the top of the stairs looking at the dust free stairs, "Now there's only one thing to do." Annoy the hell out of Sebastian. I sat sideways on the stairs and slid down them, giggling about how fun it was. When I got to the bottom I jumped off and ran into the kitchen to see Sebastian making a cake and Barldroy walking out with an afro and smut all over his face. I chuckled a little and walked in, sneaking quietly behind him I was ready to scare him, "...I'M DONE SEBASTIAN!" I yelled. I saw a slight flinch but when he turned around cake mix was on his face. I snickered, "You sure your not in a circus and secretly a clown? 'Cuz let me give you some advice that's a lot of makeup."

He wiped it off with a rag, "Yes I am sure were not in a circus."

"Oh well, you'd be great, hey can I help!" I saw him making cake so I ran around him to look, "I want'a help please?" I asked eagerly.

"No, you'll mess it up somehow."

"No I won't I swear, pleeeaaase?" he looked like he was getting annoyed and that meant I was getting my way.

"No."

"Please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, ple-"

"Fine."

"Yay~!" Bingo I win!

"Just do the mixing though, nothing else."

"I can do that, and next time I get to make the icing."

"I never agreed to that."

"I get to make the icing, I get to make the icing."

He was getting ready to testify but I was already running around the kitchen finding things to make the batter. I heard him sigh and continue his own work, since I was now doing the batter I suppose he was working on the icing... lucky. As I worked I began to get tired but I didn't want to sleep, I wanted to help with something fun but I did almost fall head first into the batter, I quickly caught myself though! I worked for about 4 more minutes till I swear my body just said screw it and almost went to sleep, I was lucky Sebastian noticed though, he caught me before I ruined everything.

"Miss Lily if your that tired please go to bed."

Half-asleep I spoke, "But I don't want'a go to sleep, I want'a help with something fun."

"So you can't, wash yourself, dress yourself, and now even take care of yourself? Are you a child?"

I yawned, "I'm not a child."

"Then go to bed."

"No."

He sighed, "Fine but if fall asleep again you are going to bed."

"Ok."

I didn't last long though, I tried to stay awake but it all failed when I was still mixing, I wonder why he makes such big cakes though that it takes this long, whatever, anyway I tried to stay up but I eventually fell in defeat, or a deep-sleep maybe. Luckily again Sebastian was there to catch me and he brought me up to bed with a sigh. He got me into a night gown then laid me under the covers and tucked me in then left the room closing the door behind.

Sebastian rolled a little cart in with a cake and tea and sat it in front of him on the desk. "What took so long?" Ciel asked.

"I had to get miss Lily into bed, she fell asleep while working."

"Somethings strange about the girl." he said then took a bite of the cake and a sip of tea then went back to working.

When I woke up it was still dark but lights seemed to keep coming from outside. I walked over to the window and looked out to see the 4 or 5, counting Pluto, fighting random people. I heard gun shot and knew where the light was coming from. I walked out the room and down the stairs, *How strange for this to happen so late at night.* I thought. As I walked I came to the front door and stood there staring out the window, there's no way in hell am I walking out there. As soon as I awakened and noticed what had happened it all stopped. The 4 people began to walk to the mansion and I quickly hid under the stair case. When they walked in it seemed no one noticed me science they all left to there own room I suppose. I sighed in relief as they were all gone till I heard an annoying voice and the word, "Boo." I flinched and held in my screech of fright and turned around to see Sebastian snickering. "Pay backs a bitch huh?" I said aloud, speaking the words he would never actually say.

"Indeed young miss."

"So what do you want?"

"I was curious why such a young and tired child was awake."

"I couldn't sleep with all that noise."

"Well it's over now, back to bed."

I stood there a second till he finally spoke, "Don't tell me your afraid to go back alone."

"Of course not!" I screamed-whispered at him, "What type of person would be afraid."

"I don't know, you tell me you are the person afraid."

"I am not, it's just, I, well, you see, I'm just, uh," I continued to stutter and stuff till he finally stopped me,

"I suppose there's no helping it since you won't go to bed other wise, come with me." he said with an outstretched hand.

"You sure your not the one afraid?" but I took his hand anyway and fallowed him up the stairs to my room. We walked in and I fell back to sleep quite fast. Sebastian sighed then walked out to leave me to rest.

I woke up to knocks and grumbled then stood up and walked the bed, "Yeah?" I asked tiredly, I didn't even know it was till they replied.

"You need to get ready for work."

I yawned and looked up at him, "I don't wanna." and I walked back over and crawled in bed tiredly.

He sighed, "I'll be back in 10 minutes with a cup of water if your not ready I'll dump it on you."

I just yawned and waved him off.

*Splash!* water was everywhere. I jumped up and glared at him,

"What the hell you fucking little bitch."

He smirked, "I told you I would soak you."

"I didn't think you fucking meant it!"

"What did I tell you about cursing."

"That I can do it when ever I want."

"Yes I said you can- wait, I didn't say that I said-"

"Yay! I can cuss whenever I want now!"

He sighed, "Just get dressed and ready to work."

This time I sighed, "Fine, can you help me with my corset again?"

"Mey-Rin will."

"K."

Mey-Rin had helped me in my corset and even dried my short boyish hair off to, thanks a lot Sebastian. And she was done she left the room and I fallowed her but she told me to find , he's no mister to me if you ask. Anyway though right now I was looking for him, well, till I found the front door and began to run to it. I opened it and you know who was in front of me with that scary fake smile? Well I'm sure I don't really have to tell you.

"And what may you be doing miss Lily?" Sebastian asked.

"Um, I-I was looking for you."

"Sure you weren't trying to leave?"

"Of course not... I think."

"Were having a guest over today so don't cause any trouble or mess anything up."

"Sorry, I don't promise a thing." I smiled.

Suddenly his smile was gone and replaced with a scary stern face, "If you do you'll be punished."

"Eh! Uh, I never said I'd actually do something, it was just a joke."

And fake smile, "Good, when he comes over I'd like you to stay in your room, for now I suppose you can go outside and find Finny, see if you can somehow help him."

I nodded and walked around him outside to find Finny.

"Ahhhhh!" I screamed running away from Pluto, "Finny! Help me!" I ran behind him and gripped his shirt.

"Alright miss Lily." and as Pluto ran towards us he grabbed his muzzle and lifted him into the air. I screamed and hid behind him more as he then threw Pluto.

I gasped, "Woah! That was so cool!" I ran back in front of him looking astonished, "That is the most coolest thing I've ever seen!"

"It's nothing get crazy about." he chuckled rubbing the back of his head.

"But that was so cool and crazy, you must be like a super hero or something!"

"Nah I'm just the gardener." but I could tell he was beginning to get a little embarrassed by all the compliments I was giving,

I just giggled, "Your not really good at gardening though." that seemed to upset him a little.

"Yeah I know," he sighed, "But I get to be outside and that's good enough." he boomed at his new re-found of energy.
