Elizabeth Ethel Cordelia Midford sits in the library as it faces the gardens behind the mansion that once belonged to Ciel phantomhive. The chill of fall arrives giving it a swift breeze that lingers within the open space of books and scattered letters on the desk. Her golden curls linger onto her fair skinned chest, her eyes gleaming as the morning light reflects their emotion and deep colors of green. Elizabeth warps tightly around her a silk covering around her shoulders.
After their final dance together Elizabeth had no idea he was intending to disappear and die, along with his ever so loyal butler Sebastian Michaelis who has as well disappeared along with Ciel.
The investigation to search for him was long gone, once she turned 16 and everyone else moved on expect her. As the years went by she became his substitute, which now Elizabeth is taking over as the new "watchdog" of the underworld of the United Kingdom and taking Ciel's place.
Now having control over The Funtom her family dis approves and wishes for her to start and rise a family, she refuses wishing to continue on his legacy alone. As she sighs and closes her eyes briefly, the door to the library opens and her eyes moves quickly to the door, but it is only her maid Paula with afternoon tea. "hello Lady Midford, how is todays work coming along?" Elizabeth turns herself in her chair her face changing its expression seriously, "fine, perfectly fine. Hopefully the mansion is well in order I do have some quests that will be joining me in the tea room." She nods, "yes all is in order Lady Midford ill be setting Darjeeling tea your favorite and Apple and Raisin deep pie." Elizabeth smiles lightly, "good, now go, tell me when they arrive if so." She bows quickly gathering herself and leaving quickly.
Elizabeth sighs and sits up from her desk, gathering all the signed paperwork and letters leaving them in a neat pile and slowly moving towards the door. ~I miss you ciel….. I hope you know how hard it is to be in this mansion. we shared memories together so please… I hope you're watching over me~
She puffs herself up as she opens the door gathering herself up into the hall way. Suddenly Paula hurries to her side, her breath heavy with urgency. Elizabeth turned to face her, glaring at her," what is it?!" Paula collects herself and pushes her hair back standing straight up, "your guests are here, waiting for you."
Elizabeth face palms and throws her silk covering at Paula "well you could have it least come to me faster! I want to make a good impression!" Paula bows and apologizes, "I apologize for my stupidity Lady Midford."
Elizabeth puffs up her chest hurrying past her going through each hall as a maze as she spots the stairs and glides down them. As she approaches the double doors, she fixes her hair into place as well as her dress. ~Ciel… I hope your listening because...i realize… this is my life know... I don't think... I could ever be without you. Yet this mansion... and its memories are all here. So. I hope your listening... Because I don't know how much more I can take of living…~ Elizabeth opens the doors to unfamiliar men drinking tea and she smiles closing the doors behind her knowing this is the road. She'll never stop going through.
