/:Shinji Manor:\


~Dawn's POV~

I slipped through the forest silently, hoping to avoid any strangers along the way. My skirt was tattered and filthy. I did not complain, for there was no one to complain to. I now, have a sense of loneliness.

My large comforting home has gotten so small and far away. My stomach dropped sadly for leaving home, but it was what I needed to do. I would avoid arranged marriages at all costs. I needed to find him first.

The frigid cold, made my teeth chatter. My knees shook wearily. I had run a far distance from my house. It was safe enough to rest. Tomorrow, I would search for him.

I laid my back against a tree stump, thinking of how my parent's would react. Their precious daughter that was about to get married, has run away. I knew it would hurt their position and image, but it was needed.

Slowly, my eyes were shut together like a magnet. My thoughts drifted to a distant place, forgetting about the cold air, brushing past me.

~Johanna's POV~


"Dawn. Dawn. Dawn!" I shot up from my bed. Sticky, cold sweat ran down my forehead. I panted hard. It was just a nightmare. I sighed in relief. I made my way through the large corridors of the house to make sure she was still there. She couldn't have possibly left. I told myself reassuringly.

I lightly let the door open, a creak sliced through the silence, making me jump. My eyes darted towards the bed.

The sheets were flat. She…She's gone…

"DAWN!" I screamed, a few lights from the maids room flickered, heavy footsteps made their way to me.

"S-she's gone…" I whispered and buried my face into my hands.

"FIND HER!" I screeched, whacking away all the maids comforting arms.

~May's POV~


I was going on my normal midnight stroll. The air was crisp outside, sending me shivers down my back.

An unusual bundle of blue caught my attention. Slowly, and cautiously, I approached it, hoping that it wouldn't suddenly attack me.

As I got closer, I realized that the bundle was a woman around my age. Her navy blue hair swayed in the wind, her slim arms were wrapped around her knees.

I picked her up easily. Surprised that she was so light, I carried her back into my quaint home and set her on the extra bed. I started brewing some tea in case she woke up. It was a few minutes afterwards when she sat up, rubbing her eyes sleepily.

"Hello." I greeted with a smile, my brown hair fell to my face as I poured the tea into a cup.

"H-hello…" She stammered and rubbed her eyes again. "Where am I?" She asked in a small voice, obviously unsure of where she was.

"This is my home!" I said proudly, setting the cup of tea in front of her. I sat across from her in a small wooden chair.

"It's lovely…" She replied looking around. She traced her fingers across the table, feeling the rough wooden walls and tables.

I chuckled. "I believe it is too." I flashed a smile. "Where do you come from?" I asked, raising my brow.

"I-I-I…Don't know." She whispered and furred her brows trying to remember.

"Well, maybe you should get a job or look for someone to take you in because I can't keep you here forever…" I said solemnly. "My husband will be back tomorrow." I added with a small smile.

"It must be wonderful to live with the one you love." She whispered quietly, I almost didn't hear it.

"Is there a reason why you would say that?" I asked with true concern in my voice. "It's always fine to talk to me. I won't tell any of you're secrets." I reassured her, laying my hand on top of hers.

The girl hesitated. Her beautiful cobalt eyes shone pain. "Can I trust you?" She whispered, her voice cracked from restrain.

"Don't worry." I said warmly, trying to make her feel at ease. "Oh, by the way, my names May." I mentally smacked myself for not telling that. I grinned sheepishly.

"I'm…Dawn Hikari." She said slowly, still debating on whether or not she should tell me.

I gasped. "D-Dawn? Hikari?" I cried, jumping up from my chair. "You're Johanna's daughter. You shouldn't be here!" She shrieked.

"Shh…" I frowned. "I know, but I ran away. I thought you promised not to tell." She pleaded, her eyes were full of tears, and her head hung and stared at her hands.

I sat back down. I knew that this girl was probably going though a lot. I didn't know what it was, but I had the urge to help her.

"I won't tell. I'm here to help." I said firmly.

Dawn's head snapped up. "You will?" She whimpered and her eyes thanked me happily. "Thank you." She cried and flung herself at me in a hug.

"Okay, okay." I smiled and set my hands on her shoulder. "Now, tell me what happened." I set my lips in straight line.

"Well…," She started poking nervously at her fingers. "I-I- Loved someone from my childhood. I don't recall much from it, but we promised each other an engagement," She frowned. "But, my parent's have arranged a marriage for me." I watch her as she fidgeted with the blankets.

I nodded to show her that I was listening. "I see. I believe you did what was right." She smiled. I smiled back. "It's what you want, not what your parents want." I continued, she grabbed my hands as a gesture of thanks.

"I can't thank you enough. I-I don't know how to pay you back." She stammered, her face started to flush.

"I don't need anything in return." I inhaled contently. "I'm just glad with my life, the way it is." I sighed at the thought of Drew. "The least you can do is keeping me company until Drew comes back." I told her.

She giggled and smiled at me gently. "Will do." She giggled and slumped back into her bed. "So, I should probably go searching for a job tomorrow." She sighed and stared at the ceiling.

"I suppose so." I blinked at her. "I mean, it will make you blend in more. I think you might want to make up a good story though." I added. Her eyes widened.

"You're right…how did I not think of that!" She hit her head with her palm. "Okay, here we go. I came from a different region, and am looking for a job." She said cocking her head to the side.

"Make it more believable. I don't think you want to be confused when you confront a job seeker." I raised a brow, amused at her behavior.

"Right…" She laughed sheepishly. "I'm not as good at acting then I thought…"

"Don't worry. We'll get this down!" I shouted, holding my fist in the air and puffed out my chest.


~Paul's POV~

There was a rap on the door. After no response, a door creaked open and soft footsteps thumped to the other end of the room.

Blinding light enveloped the room soon after the footsteps stopped.

I grunted and turned to the other side of my bed.

"Master, it is time to wake." Drew snorted and set a tray on the table.

I grunted again in response because propping myself up and rubbing my eyes. "Drew, what time is it?" I growled.

"Hmmm…about 6:50." He rolled his eyes. He placed a few plates on the table and looked me in the eye.

I groaned. "Why the hell am I up so early?" I looked at Drew angrily with a scowl on my face.

"Paul, you have work to do." He reminded, placing croissants, cheese and a cup of tea on the table.

I grabbed a croissant, mercilessly shoved cheese in it and munched away slowly. I waved my hand and closed my eyes. Drew got what I was saying, and left.

I dressed as usual, a casual blackish-bluish suit with a black white collar shirt underneath. I wore a silky, dark blue, tie loose around my neck.

After I finished all the croissants, I made my way down the corridors of the mansion. I took several lefts, several rights and made it down several flights of stairs.

I entered through the large cherry wood doors and inhaled the room. The smell of wood was fading as well as the smell of tea.

The large window looked over the back of the mansion, something I looked at everyday. It wasn't much to me anymore. The fountain was placed neatly in the center. The rose hedges were trimmed perfectly to make the shape of a star. The spaces in between were made as pathways to walk through the garden.

I sighed and sat down on my office chair. Dammit. It's always boring. I growled inwardly and started to sign a stack of papers.

My train of thoughts were interrupted by a light knock on the door.

"Come in." My voice rasped, I was obviously bored and tired.

"Sir Shinji, the Head Maid was been found dead last night." Drew, my butler said after he set down Earl grey tea gently in front of me.

"Get a new one." I grunted and waved my hand, indicating that he should leave.

"Yes sir. I will find a few for you to interview." The butler muttered and closed the door.

I sighed and looked out the window like I did everyday. There was nothing interesting for me to do. Everything was boring and dull; there was no unexpected things coming up.


~Dawn's POV~

I bolted straight up from a warm bed. My head was spinning, and I felt dizzy.

"May?" I croaked and propped myself up on my elbow.

"Yes?" A faint voice called. I guessed that she was in the kitchen.

"Are you waiting for your husband to come back?" I asked softly.

"Yes." She replied. I couldn't see her face, but I knew that her voice was lined with excitement.

"I-I-I think I see him!" She stammered. She was silent for another brief moment then her chair scraped the floor, making a loud noise.

I sighed and got up from bed. I smiled to myself a little with the idea of May being so happy.

"Drew!" May squealed loudly. Her voice echoed through the house.

"I'm back." I deeper voice responded, his voice hid a hint of amusement.

"Drew, I need you to meet someone. She's looking for a job, and I was wondering if you could help." May gushed. Footsteps approached my room.

A tall man with chartreuse hair stepped in. His face was painted with a wide grin, revealing the cutest dimples.

I giggled to myself.

May raised a brow. "Is there anything wrong?" She asked with a voice full of curiosity.

"No, it's just that you two are so cute together." I smiled and pointed and the two.

Drew and May both turned away blushing. "Well, I have an idea for a job." He shrugged. I could tell he was trying to direct the conversation away from the fact of them being a couple.

I nodded to indicate that I was listening to him.

"You could be the new head maid for the Shinji Manor." He said flatly.

My face twisted in disgust. Shinji… I growled inwardly. God, this is a do or die situation… I smiled to Drew.

"Sure!" I laughed and pushed the couple out the door. "I have to change. I'm expecting the interview to be this evening?" I giggled.

"Yes…" Drew sighed before I shut the door in his face.

I groaned loudly after I heard footsteps to the kitchen. "WHY OF ALL PEOPLE DID IT HAVE TO BE THE SHINJI?" I hissed. I had recalled that they were arrogant and stuck-up. I violently threw on an ankle length pink dress that faded into peach with lace at the bottom. The poofy sleeves made me look more mature. I smiled to myself and brushed out my hair. I placed a crystal headband in my hair and walked out the door.

"Ready?" Drew asked leading me out the door. I was lead to a carriage. The design was quite dull, and boring. Inside was rather comfortable though I had to admit.

I simply nodded.

It took a while to get to the manor. The roads were deserted, meaning the mansion was further away from the town.

I must have been blanking out because the next thing I knew was the fact that Drew was waving his hand in my face. I blushed.

"U-uh, sorry!" I stuttered.

"It's okay. I need to give you a few ruled before we go in okay?" He sighed and helped my out.

I looked around the gardens and looked up at the large building. I had to admit it was quite impressive, but nothing like mine.

"Surprised? It must be a shocker for a commoner such as you to see such a large manor." Drew smirked.

I bit my tongue to prevent myself for spilling the fact that I was a Hikari.

"No, to be honest, it's hideous." I said flatly.

"You better not have that bitter attitude around Pau-err Sir Shinji because he'll rip you're head off and toss you in the trash." Drew hissed, a dark aura surrounded him.

"Oh…okay." I said with a cringe.

"Okay, so when I snap, just enter the room and explain why you need a job and why you are fit for the job. It's an interview, I'm sure you've been through one before." He rolled his eyes and opened the dark, looming doors.

Geez, I hope this guy doesn't end up being a vampire or something. I thought sarcastically and rolled my eyes.

Being used to walking through large halls, I quietly followed Drew without a complaint.

"Remember what I told you." He hissed. "Other applicant's will go after you, but since you're my wife's friend, I'm kind enough to put you first." Drew stated and rubbed his temples. He weakly banged the door, making the door rattle. The noise echoed through the corridors.

"Yes." A grunt replied. Drew groaned quietly and put on a cheerful face. He cleared his throat before he spoke.

"I have found several young women, who are eligible to become maids." Drew said wearily.

Where are the several…? I muttered to myself.

A snap made my jump and I entered the room. I took in the scene. A grumpy looking man sat back in his chair. His eyes were closed, but fluttered open. His dark purple hair fell down covering his eye.

Something about him seemed familiar to me, but I couldn't put my finger on it. I quickly made my way to the center of the room and smiled my trademark smile.

"My name is Dawn Berlitz." I smiled, knowing that all the practicing that I had with May was going to work like a charm.


~Paul's POV~

There was a weak knock on the door. "Yes." I grunted and twirled my chair around to look at the office door.

Drew stepped in and cleared his throat. "I have found several young women, who are eligible to become maids."

"Hn." I nodded my head as a sign to let the first one in.

Drew snapped his fingers loudly and a young woman of about the age of twenty showed up from behind the door. Her cobalt hair swayed as she stepped to the center of the room. She looked at me intently with her deep blue eyes.

"My name is Dawn Berlitz," She curtsied, "I have been looking for a job for a while and am very fortunate to have found this position." She flashed a smile and stood up straight.

"Continue." I said flatly, my onyx eyes were dull and emotionless.

"I have served for a man named Sir Damion before he left to a far country." The petite girl's eyes glimmered in the light, catching my attention.

"Sir Damion was a weak man. He had no money, and barely held his position." I snorted keeping my eyes locked with hers.

"Excuse me sir, but it is very ungentlemanly like to interrupt a lady's speech." The cobalt blue haired girl narrowed her eyes at me.

Drew looked as if he was about to say something, but I cut him off.

"Thank you. That is enough." I closed my eyes and held my hand up to stop her from speaking. "I will send you a letter if I approve of you." I grunted and gestured my hand towards the door. Before I knew it, she had slipped out of the room. Drew snapped his fingers again, but I held up my hand to stop him. "No need for the others. I have found my new maid." I smirked and sat back in the chair.

'Though, I have finally found you. I certainly didn't expect to find you like this.' I mused to myself I felt my smirk widen.


~Dawn's POV~

I smiled to myself and happily skipped back to the carriage.

"Wait Dawn, I need to talk to you." Drew said catching my shoulder.

I raised a brow and looked at him curiously.

"I think he chose you as a maid, so I should probably get your stuff for you. I mean, you can stay here. I want to go back to say good-bye to May again.

I had a sinking feeling in my stomach. "May…" I croaked. I knew I probably wasn't going to see her in a long time. Being a maid was tough, and I absolutely had to stay in the manor.

I nodded, letting Drew get to say good-bye to his wife. I felt disappointed to let the opportunity of saying bye to May slip past me, but I knew he needed it more than me.

"I'll tell her you said bye." He waved and started back to carriage.

I sighed loudly, suddenly cursing the fact that I was a maid and had to do work. I mean I used to be the princess not the maid.

I rolled my eyes and made my way back over to 'Sir Shinji's' Room. I knocked lightly, hoping that he would allow me to talk.

"Drew, stop bothering me." The voice growled. He seemed pretty frustrated.

"I-I'm not D-Drew." I stammered feeling a bit insecure of being here.

"Oh, it's that girl." The voice said dully. "Come in." He said hesitantly.

Slowly, I creaked open the door. "Um…sorry for bothering you." I bowed and looked at him. His features were shockingly familiar.

"I feel like we met before." I grumbled.

"Did you say something?" He asked raising a brow.

"Ah…n-nothing. I was just wondering what my duties are as a maid and where…my room is." I said nervously poking my index fingers together.

"That's for you to find out." He snapped and turned back to his work.

"Hey! Just because I work for you, doesn't mean that you can treat me like trash." I narrowed my eyes and snapped my fingers towards him.

He smirked. "I can do whatever I want." He mused, locking his eyes with mine.

"No you can't" I protested stubbornly. I guess the acting all went downhill from here.

"Yes." He grunted not bothering to look up at me from his work.

"No, you can't. Prove it." I growled, crossing my arms rebelliously.

"Are you sure?" He said dully, now looking directly at me.

I smirked, "You bet."

Paul got up from his table and glared at me. His face was full of anger.

I narrowed my eyes. "BIPOLAR!" I called out with a snort.

He twitched. That did it. He looked like he wanted to strangle me.

I laughed airily and dashed out of the room. "Nana nana booboo, you can't catch me!" I giggled, watching him turn red from rage.

To my surprise, he started to dash after me. I picked up my skirt and ran faster.

"Wait up Dammit." He snarled and continued to pursuit me.

I was to the point to crying. I was laughing as hard as possible. Of course, this action was limited because of the corset I was currently wearing.

"Guys?" A familiar voice called out.

"Drew!" We both exclaimed, collapsing from all the running.

"You guys seriously need to get you're act together. Running around the corridors like five-year olds is unacceptable." He scolded, sounding like a mom. "Dawn, you're room is down the hall, it's next to Paul's." He sighed, not bothering to use titles.

"Would you be a gentleman and kindly take her there?" Paul grumbled, brushing the dust off his pants. "I still have work to do." With that note, he turned around and headed back to the office.

"I can't believe you actually got him to chase you." Drew grumbled, hiding the surprised tone in his voice.

I snorted, but it turned into a giggle. "I can't believe it either!" I shouted while we started walking towards the doors.

"Here's you're room." Drew bowed and gestured to the room.

I smiled. "Thanks."

"No problem. May would kill me if I were mean to you." He smirked, flipped his chartreuse hair and walked off in the other direction.

I slowly opened the door to my room. It was rather plain, but something about it fascinated me. I smiled happily and jumped on the bed. It was soft and plush.

There was a large window parallel to the door. Dark blue satin curtains hung from the ceiling, cascading down to the floor.

Something was frightening familiar about this place. I couldn't figure it out. It felt like something was stabbing at my side.

Wait...I mentally smacked myself. No duh! I was sitting on my maid outfit. That's why there was that feeling. I smirked.

Maid outfits are so kinky. I laughed and changed into them slowly. The white frilly apron tied around my waist made my figure stand out. The poof of the dress put emphasis on my hips. To finish it all off, there was the headband. I gently replaced my crystal headband to the maid one.

I heard a band on the door and a familiar voice. "Dawn, I know it's you're first day and all, and you really start tomorrow, but you're going to have to have to watch him eat dinner." The voice dragged on.

"Okay." I rolled my eyes and smoothed out my dress. I slipped on the white knee socks and black slippers.

I slipped outside my room and greeted Drew.

"You're already in you're maid outfit?" He tilted his head to the side.

I rolled my eyes, "Yes, is it now apparent enough?" I sighed and followed Drew slowly to the dining room.

The table was large enough to fit twenty people. I almost burst out laughing at the thought of one person sitting at the table alone.

"Stop snorting, I know what you're thinking. Paul...er...Sir Shinji has guests today." Drew snapped.

"Oh really?" I raised my brow. "Just one person?" I put my hand over my lips to suppress a giggle.

Drew just rolled his eyes, not bothering to answer the question I asked him.

I had guessed that all the preparations were complete since the table was already set for three and the candles were burning brightly.

I voice boomed from down the hall. "Paul! Let's eat already. I'm hungry!"

There was incoherent mumbling and come chattering got closer.

Three men entered the room all happy...well except for Paul.

My eyes widened at recognition. I gasped and slapped my hand over my mouth.

Drew bowed, and so did I. I tried to hide my face as best as I could.

"I am Drew, and this is Dawn. We are here to oblige to all you're needs." He stood up. I lingered in the bow a moment longer before standing up straight.

"This is Ashton Ketchum, he runs a fairly large company." Paul grunted and pointed at the raven haired man. He was the one complaining about food. "This is Kenny Valsair, he runs a fairly large business also." Paul gestured to the tall, reddish-brownish haired man. He smiled at the both of us. Luckily, I hid my face well enough for him not to notice...that I was his fiancée.
