It was pouring rain, Annastaise was in her long slumber for 300 years. Finally her eyes opened. She stared at the rotten ceiling for a minute as her vision were still hazy. She blink her eyes and sat up.
"Sebastian?" she called out softly with her hoarse voice,but only the sound of the pouring rain was heard. "Sebastian?" she called out again, but louder. There wasn't any demon presence and she starts to feel anxious. She stood up from the bed hastily but fell as her legs were still weak. She might be recovered after long years of rest, but her body is weak as she hasn't use it in a very long hundreds of years.
"Sebastian!" she called out, tears starts to cloud her visions. Trying to stand up, but fell many times. She let herself weep. She knew then, she was abandoned. Instead of feeling heart broken, anger took over. Her eyes turn red as of a demon. Slowly she was able to stand up, she walks out through the halls. Surprised by how her home had been destroyed, her family portrait was burned terribly.
"What happened?" she asked to no one in particular or expect no answer. As she walks wobbly down the ruined carpet stairs, to her surprise the entrance was completely gone, only a big hole was replaced. Then she felt something soft under her foot, she knelt down to pick it up. It was her family head butler emblem, it was ripped and burned. She tighten her grip and decided to look for her butler whom had abandoned her, she want revenge. She was abandoned many times in her past life as a human, now she's abandoned by the only person she trust and loved. Rain poured down on her, she never hated rain before, actually she used to love it as it calms her. But now she hates it, she hates the cold, it reminds her of when she was abandoned when she was a little girl. She was all alone in the cold, until Sebastian found her. Annastaise drags herself towards the gate, but her vision became hazy. She fell down as the grounds were very slippery, she felt her body weakening, everything went pitch black.
"Good Morning, Young Master .It is time for you to wake up" Sebastian woke his young master as he walked towards the window and drew the curtains slowly. Ciel open his eyes slightly and sat up.
"today's morning tea is Jackson's Earl Grey, I also made scones,croissants and campagne" Sebastian said as he pours the tea as his master watches him in daze. Sebastian walks towards the armoire to pick clothes for his young master, at that time he felt his left hand became numb for a few seconds and it was noticeable. He took off his glove revealing his Faustian contract mark. The mark became more visible, darker as if it was overlapped with another. Even with his calm expression, inside he was feeling anxious.
"Sebastian, get me dressed" Ciel commanded, obviously wide awake. Sebastian was an expert at concealing his true emotions, he thought emotions are for humans. As Sebastian unbuttoned Ciel's clothes, in a glance he thought he saw a silhouette of a woman outside the courtyard. But he dismissed it as his imagination and no one was supposed to be near the mansion except he was done getting his young master ready, he went back to his work. He went to check every household and made sure that there's no uninvited visitor. That afternoon he was preparing lunch for his young master. As he was setting the tableware, he dropped a plate and went down to pieces as he started to feel numbness on his left arm again. Mey Rin,Bard and Finnian came rushing in to see what the commotion was about. It was a shock for them to see Sebastian like that, he never makes mistake. Sebastian kept his composure picked up the broken plates with his right hand and the other hidden behind his back.
"Forgive me to startle you, my hand slipped" he assured them, the others nodded in dazed. The talented black butler, Sebastian never made a mistake. But they weren't the type to doubt and dismissed it as a common mistake. Sebastian stared at his left hand and grip harder.
'It's not possible...Lady Annastaise is dead' he reassured himself in whisper.
