Immortality
Chapter one
Lilith
I am cursed with immortality, watching my loved ones die because in the end everyone does everyone but me.
I don't remember how long I have walked looking for someone like me who won't die but after this long I only have a string of hope to hold onto.
Sunset Victorian England
Outside cheap pub
"Hey you twat, Lilith you wanna get paid or not" the fat bastard yelled across the street, this man had many a time tried to buy me and I usually refused but now I need food because I have a Responsibility to keep Ink and Ashby alive. So now I a being who can never die is resorting to prostitution to feed my pets,
"I am coming sir" I uttered
"I have a room already booked" he smiled showing his disgusting piss colored teeth. When we were in the hotel room he tried to slip a pill in my drink so I pretend to drink the vile shit and it is now a little later on in the evening when he unexpectedly he pulls out a knife and lunges at me. I make the realisation that he is the man that killed Maria and all the others. That's when the window shattered.
A tall pale man with black hair, his tail coat flowing in the wind;smashes the window staring at me and his sudden appearance gave me the opportunity to disarm the bastard. In a matter of moments I got him on the floor with a beautifully sharp blade against his emerging double chins
"For fucks sake you deserve a lot worse than this after all you have done" I truly hate this despicable man
"Do you know how many, the police only have found half the victims" he snickered
"Do I really look like police, I was just trying to get some cash" I smiled pushing the blade deeper into his fat folds
"Then why do this" he was finally realising that he was going to die
"Because one of those girls was only thirteen, she had to pay back some debt so she pretended to be older and you brutally killed her, remember Maria"
I slowly cut open small gashes along his neck, his screams felt like a lullaby but before too long he was faint from blood loss so I took the dirty knife and plunged it deep into his heart then in my fit of anger I stabbed him more, faster, harder better.
The odd man stood with a sleek smile on his face
"You are an interesting specimen, but what are you"
"I don't know I kind of hoped a demon like you would know"
"How old are you"
"No idea but one thing I know is I have lived too long".
Sebastian
I was hunting a man who was murdering prostitutes and he had his victim in a hotel room, most likely drugged and close to death but that isn't what I found. What I found instead was a inhuman girl with ivory skin and long flowing ebony locks holding a knife to his neck yelling about a young girl, she was so intriguing; I have never seen such passion and hatred flowing in a women's veins.
Lilith
His master was the head of the Phantomhive estate and queens guard dog Ciel Phantomhive fifteen years old and a demon.
"You said you need money, Sebastian told me and he told me you knew he wasn't human explain" Ciel spoke with a superior tone and a elegant accent
"Money for food so I can feed Ink and Ashby, you are both demons; I can tell by your smell" I say
"Smell interesting but may I ask who Ink and Ashby are" sebastian chimes in
"Ink is my kitten and Ashby my guard dog, everyone has a smell you two smell like wilting roses"
"Well then work for me, you can be useful in my line of work" Ciel said he was staring out of the window his eyes fluttering closed
"Great I have nothing else to do but I have one request"
"What is that" Sebastian is looking directly into my eyes
"Ink and Ashby stay with me" I know that I can't leave them
"Ashby can but I am allergic to cats, the only way is if"
" I can never leave Ink or Ashby" I quietly whisper
"Just keep it away from me" He says giving in to my demands
I run as fast as I can so I can retrive my beloved pets taking them to my new home.
The maid Mey-Rin leads me to my room it is located near Sebastian's room were the overwhelming stench of cats is potent in the air. I am now sitting on a huge bed in the middle of a purple and black room decorated with white roses; I have cleaned Ashby, Ink and myself all of us trying to sleep when a knock on the door interrupts us
"Hello come in" I say and it's sebastian and he with a white cat trailing behind him
"I wanted to meet your kitten and offer it some food"
"Okay well this is Ink she is only 2 months old" I say while captive in Inks gorgeous dark turquoise eyes
"And the dog, what is his breed; I am not particularly fond of those beasts but he seems to act like a cat" said Sebastian probably not trying to be offensive
"Ashby is a mutt but he has always been around cats, he was raised by Ink's mother" I remember Ink's mother Pitch, she died around a month ago from malnourishment
"May I sit Lady... sorry I never caught your name"
"Yeah you may sit and my name is Lilith Blackwood, Mr Undertaker told me that and he knew my mother"
Sebastian
The Undertaker, even more intriguing and why the name Lilith originated from the story of the first wife of Adam kicked out of Eden or a demon in Assyrian mythology either way the Undertaker, better ask him about Lilith;
"You know the Undertaker"
"Yes, he's calls me his friend because he loved my mother" she says not understanding the depth of her words
"Do you know why you're called Lilith, it is a interesting name"
"Well my father thought I was bound to be evil so he wanted me to have an appropriate name, another thing the Mr Undertaker told me" this time she seemed weighed down
"So are you"
"Yes, I honestly enjoy killing and hurting others. I feel no remorse" I am so confused is she human
"Have you ever hurt an innocent person" I want to know more
"Yes it was a girl with no pain in her heart, she was 26 with a future but I was bitter about having none so I killed her" she stared deep into my eyes, those piercing purple eyes unnerving and unafraid.
Lilith
He left after I told him of my past, did I scare him nevermind I have a warm bed my beautiful companions and prospects for the future; this is the first night I remember sleeping comfortably.
Instead of on the side of a cold damp street,
"Lady Blackwood it's breakfast, the young lord is waiting and there are clothes in the cupboard"
Sebastian said
I walk over to the huge cupboard and open the heavy wood doors to find an array of dresses; I pick out a long black dress with white lace around the sleeves and base of the dress. This is the fanciest I have ever looked so I walk to the dining room to find Ciel, Sebastian, Mey-Rin and three other men I haven't met.
"You look stunning Lady…" Ciel starts when Sebastian whispers in his ear presumably saying something along the lines of her name is Lilith Blackwood
"Blackwood, well we have a full schedule today so eat plenty of breakfast" Ciel continues
"Miss Lilith, some tea" Sebastian offers
"Yes thank you Sebastian"
"Lilith!" the short blonde man standing next to Mey-Rin yells
"FINNY" Mey-Rin says in a harsh tone
"That's the name of a demon" Finny carries on despite Mey-Rin's warnings
"Yes, I am named after a demon from Assyrian mythology" I fake a smile to cover up the fact I despise the fact I am named after a demon
"So how old are ya" the blonde man smoking says
"You can't ask a lady that Bard" Mey-Rin is yelling again
"It's fine Mey-Rin but the thing is I don't know how long I've been alive I think the king was Edward the sixth or maybe fifth"
IN THE CARRIAGE TO THE UNDERTAKER
"How do you know the Undertaker" Ciel asks
"My mother was friends with Mr Undertaker, he gave me Ashby after one of his customers left him"
"Interesting, do you still have to make him laugh for information" said Ciel
"Yeah but his sense of humor is easy to please, I've been telling him the same story for years" I tell Ciel
"interesting , I will let you humor him this time" Sebastian chimes in winking at me.
We finally arrive at the undertaker's shop and when we walk in he wears a huge smile while running towards me
"Lilith, you came back. Where is Ashby and Ink" he says then the Undertaker looks at Ciel and Sebastian and seems utterly confused
"Yes Mr Undertaker, Ashby is right here and Ink is at my new home"
"New home, with them. Really are you now living in a house full of men"
"Yeah with them, I have a job now working for Lord Phantomhive"
"Let me guess, the mismatched bodies. You know the price" Mr Undertaker was now talking to Ciel
"Let me, Ciel and Sebastian go outside and wait for my signal" I say.
