I'm still so glad that people are reading this! I realize my writing style is a bit different from other fan fic writers and I hope that doesn't bother anyone. Also I suck at chess in case you Toboso owns Kuroshitsuji, I'm not Yana Toboso. I only own Lorena.
The records flowed out of her and suddenly I was literally watching her life play before me. Her name was Angelina Dulles and she was born into a noble family. She had an older sister, Rachel who turned out to be the small boy's mom (so she's his aunt). Rachel married the man that she Angelina loved. Angelina was happy for her. She worked at the hospital. Then her own husband died in an accident that left her unable to give birth. Then followed the deaths of her sister and brother in law. Blinded by her bitterness she decided to kill prostitutes because she was angry that they had what she wanted but was taking it for granted. That's when she met the Grim Reaper (Grell Sutcliff was his name). Together they murdered more prostitutes. Then due to an unfortunate twist of fate he killed her.
By the time it was reaching the end I had already flown off. The demon seemed to be contracted therefore it would be problematic to fight him now. Besides I'd feel bad for the little boy that he's currently bound to. The little boy. I had followed them a for quite a ways when they went home. To my surprise they arrived at the Phantomhive Manor. That name. I've heard of it many times before.
Years ago the mansion had burned down killing all of its inhabitants as shown in Angelina's records. Then one day it was discovered that the boy had miraculously made it through. I knew that, of course, he had cheated death and contracted a demon. His name was Ciel Phantomhive, the child owner of the Funtom Toy Company, the Queen's Guard Dog, and The Villainous Noble. Yet he was such a small person after all, I doubt he could have managed without the help of a demon. I had to figure out more about him.
Naturally I sent him a telegram requesting an audience with the little master himself. A day later I received his reply...his permission. I decided to play the head of a medical supply company and the duchess of a small part of Germany. I was very persuasive.
Two-o-clock sharp I arrived at the door of his mansion. I had on an expensive gown in order to look the part that I was playing. I smoothed my long black hair and petted my hat. Suddenly the door opened.
"Welcome, Lady Farrell" said a silky smooth voice. Just as expected, it was the demon. Not only him but a group of other servants. A quick glance told me that none of them were also demons.
Flashing my best smile I replied, "Thank you for having me." I entered the door and handed him my hat. I looked up to see Ciel Phantomhive himself coming down the stairs.
"Lady Farrell," he said with a firm and even voice, "what business do you have with me today?"
I noticed his eye-patch. Of course, the seal must be there. The more noticeable the seal the stronger the contract. I cracked a small smile: "Let's play a game of chess shall we?"
It was his turn to smile, though it was more of a sneer. "Chess?" he asked, "You've traveled all the way here to challenge me to a game of chess?"
"If it's no trouble to you Earl." I answered, smiling brightly, "you are the head of a toy company after all. I expect that you'd be great at games."
"In that case, I accept. Sebastian, set up the game board." he ordered. Then he gave me another icy smile.
I followed him to the game room and kept track of all the hallways and twists and turns. Then he turned towards the door.
The room was well-furnished. There was a ceiling to floor window on one side. Fresh flowers furnished the room. The chair I sat in was also extremely plush.
"Would you like some tea, my lord?" asked Sebastian.
"Of course" replied Ciel, I gave a small nod in agreement.
"Shall we begin?" I asked as pleasantly as I could muster.
"Indeed we shall." He replied and made his first move.
Two hours later we were still playing chess. Sebastian had arrived with the tea ten minutes after we started the game. I must admit, the kid was good, but he hasn't had more than a hundred years of experience. He had a knight and a bishop left. I had my queen and a rook.
"It's such a shame that the queen is so under appreciated. She's literally the most powerful piece on the game board yet, the useless king is the one that must be protected." I said staring evenly at him.
"The goal of the game is to be the last one standing," he answered pointedly; "I will use what I must in order to reach that goal."
Interesting. I move my rook. All this time I noticed Sebastian subtly studying me. I had managed to hide my angel presence as best as I could so he wouldn't detect anything nonhuman about me. But he seemed to be having his doubts. Maybe he's amazed at my amazing chess abilities.
"Check mate." I announced, sliding my queen two spaces to the right. I watched as Ciel's eye grow wide.
"Nobody has beaten me at this game in years!" he hissed, glaring accusingly at me.
"Funny how I was about to say the same thing." I retorted, "oh and I never win without my queen."
A look of shock overcame his face. He quickly suppressed it.
"I must say I'm highly impressed by your skill Lady Farrell, you're the first to beat me in quite a while. How did you do it?" he said folding his arms over his chest. Then he shoots me another icy smile.
"It was a delight playing with you Earl Phantomhive," I replied getting out of my chair, "And I've had years of practice."
"Ah, excuse me if I say so, but you do look so young." interjected Sebastian. I threw a glance towards him.
"Such flattery," I said casually, "if you only knew the miracles of medicine these days."
He gave me an expressionless look then replied, "Oh trust me, I know."
