Preface

Imagine waking up in a cold dark forest in the middle of nowhere. Your body aching for water. Stomach clenching for food. You are stiff. As if you haven't moved for a long time. You notice a figure in the distance. You want to yell for help or scream in fear. Maybe both.

You start to think. How did I end up here? Will I live? Am I already dead?

These thoughts were running through my head as I found myself in this prediciment. Many other thoughts were running through my head but they didn't seem important. The figure from before was starting to move closer. As the figure did I could make out some features. It was a guy. He was kinda short with moppy blonde hair. He had bright green eyes with a gardeners hat on his head.

"H-Hello?" The boy asked. As he got to me I heard him gasp.

I guess I did look pretty bad, considering I didn't know how long I have been here. Hell, I didnt even remember my name! My own name! I guess the guy felt bad, cause he picked me up in his arms and carried me towards a big mansion. But as he started walking I felt the pain. My ribs felt like they were on fire and my head was expolding. The pain was getting so bad that I felt like I was going to pass out. And guess what? I did.

When I woke up again, I was felt like I was on a cloud. Then I realized that I was on a bed. I shot straight up. But then regretted it because my head started pounding again. I groaned. Sitting up wasn't helping my ribs either. I tried to lay back down but found that I couldn't. My mind was elsewhere. You see, at the exact same moment a man walked into the room.

"Ah, your awake." He said, " I shall go tell, Master." He left.

Master? What the hell?! What is this? The 1800's? Was that guy a butler or something? As I was pondering these thoughts the door swung open again. There stood a boy about my age. Whatever my age was. He had an eye patch over his left eye while his right eye was a shining bright blue. He had blackish-blue hair that hung across his left eye and he was wearing a ruffled shirt with a jacket over it with capri style shorts and knee high socks with dress shoes. And his outfit was blue.

"Good. Your awake." He said in a smooth, but manly voice.

"You have some explaining to do."

"I do?" I asked him, trying to figure out what I did wrong.

"Yes. What were you doing on the Phantomhive estate?"

"Phantomhive? I don't know what you are talking about. I don't remember hearing the name Phantomhive. And even if I did remember, what would I be doing here?"

"I don't know. That is what I am trying to find out."

"I can't remember!"

The boy looked over at the man from before, who had aparently entered the room unnoticed, with concern.

"Sebastian." The boy says adressing the man.

"Yes?" Sebastian says.

"Do you have anything to help her remember?"

"I might, Master. Shall I suggest a cup of soothing Earl Gray Tea?"

"Yes, Sebastian. Bring it to the Tea Room. And have Meyrin help..." He turns to me, "What is your name?"

"I don't know."

"Well I will give you a name then. Your name shall be Lavanya, until you can remember."

He turns back to Sebastian, "Have Meyrin find something for Lavanya to wear and help her dress. When she is done have her bring her to the Tea Room. I will be waiting."

"Yes, Young Master." Sebatian says and turns and walks out the door with the boy on his heels.
