Authors note: This will be my second story so, be nice with your comments

When I woke up my circadian rhythm within my bones had changed I could feel it,

My chest throbbed water came down around me, dancing on my forehead it stung my arms, my head and my eyelids were like bricks, I tried to keep my eyes open but they kept closing.

Before everything blurred I saw a boy my age, blonde hair that stood out against his bright green eyes.

XXXXX

Pounding

Throbbing

I could hear the blood rushing through my ears, above me a girl stood,

"Oz whose this!"

" You're my manservant!" she said walking away

I lifted my head slightly to see what had been going on, the boy…..The one I had seen earlier was sitting in a chair a man with golden eyes and black hair stood behind him, without thinking I stood up and tried for the door but I couldn't walk I had been off my feet to long,

"Please don't , your too unfit to be walking around," he blonde smiled as he grabbed me

I felt awkward, without thinking I blushed as he moved the hair out of my eyes with a gentle touch, I daintily placed my hand on his shoulder I stood up, slowly, once more I took a look at my surroundings everything was weird nothing was familiar, he was a stranger, I hate strangers tears filled my eyes everything was blurred, weeping I laid my head on his shoulder.

"Gomennasai,"

"Gomennasai," I whispered through tears

"There's no need to be sorry, I'm Oz,"

"What is your name?" he whispered

"R….Rena." I shuddered

At that moment the girl walked up to us she grabbed Oz by the shirt collar and yanked him away from me

"Alice.?"

"You have a contract with me!"

"Anyways she not a chain."

I looked around once again

"Is there something I can change into?" I asked starring down at a most likely barrowed night gown

"Gilbert," Oz said motioning for the man to talk

"Over there, th…the wardrobe." He blushed

I got up using the bed for support, I walked to the large wardrobe opening it I found there were dresses and petticoats, something in me was triggered, but I didn't notice reaching up I clutched the hanger of a cream dress with blue lace lining the arms the bottom and where it cut into a squared neckline, on the bottom of the wardrobe there were shoes,

I went with a pair of white flats I wasn't ready for the high heels

We headed down to breakfast after I finished changing, when I sat down I sat next to Oz, with Gilbert on my left and Alice eyeing my every move from across the table while she chomped on a piece of meat

Oz on the other hand was looking at a girl at the end of the table, who was quietly sipping tea, a man with white hair sat on the table next to her, kicking his legs like a little kid

"Oz who is this young girl next to you?" the girl asked quietly setting down her tea

"Her name is Rena," he said looking at the girl

I blushed looking down at scraped arms,

"Is the brat an illegal contractor?"

I twirled around to see the white haired man and a doll

"Now, now Emily."

"Break!" "Don't do that!"

"Miss Sharon it was Emily."

Break whispered holding his oversized sleeve in front of his face and pouting amazingly Sharon clamed on the spot a vain in her face bulged as she eyed break, I not caring took a piece of bread and started to nibble on it, then took a sip of water

"Too bad she'll have to be taken in"

Cough, cough, cough

I choked on the water spilling a little on my dress

"Just kidding!"

Wham

Break was hit square across the head with a paper fan "ouch" I thought

"Oz you need to complete this mission."

"People have been found dead on the streets, the work of a loose chain break has the details."

He turned to me

"Would you like to join?"

I grinned back "s-sure."

Alice stared from across the table not happy

I don't know exactly how it happened but Alice got "lost" me and Oz stood by a barrel, Oz obviously was tired from sitting he jumped up on the barrel and sat down with his own form of grace, he moved over a bit and patted the spot next to him motioning me to sit down, it was a fairly large barrel so I could possibly sit with him.

We sat I starred at my hands,
"Master, would you like a flower?"

"Sure" Oz said a large grin across his face
"what is master doing here, I've never seen him?"
"First time here, a friend got lost"
"Papa is looking for her, while I stay with my sister,"

He said pointing at me

"As a commemoration of the city, please accept this!"
"It's beautiful but if I put it here…"
"If I hold it. I would be ruined.."
"But Like this, you and that flower will live on inside me"

"Who did you steal that pick up line from?" asked gil
"Papa!"
"Who are you callin Papa?"

Alice stared at the ground blankly chomping on meat

"Looks like we found her. Bye!"

He said jumping me down, without warning he picked me off the barrel and placed me on the path way

XXXX

"I want to find my memories as soon as possible!"

"Hey gil,"
"why do illegal contracters kill people?"
"Actually, whats's the merit of exchanging contracts with a chain in the first place?"
"With Alice, we both wanted the same thing."
"They aren't just clinging to them for no reason, right?"
"To be able to change the past, that's what they offer."
"Change the past, what do you mean?"

Then it went into a large conversation but something struck me, it must of ment something to Oz he had the same reaction,

"Until the seal makes a full turn, they will do it again….and again."

Seal?

"it appears on the chest of a illegal contracter,"

Authour POV:

Oz started to unbutton his shirt, Rena, sitting in a corner behind the bed and out of site did the same,

Thump

Rena had fainted
