Chapter 2: My Sister?!
Ciel's P.O.V.
I heard footsteps enter my room yet I ignored these and covered my head I felt sunlight enter my line of vision. Though, it was futile with that wretched butler, Sebastian shaking me awake. I groaned but got up either way and awoke to what I thought was going to be a normal day, Oh! How wrong was I to think such a thing. I then heard Sebastian telling me all these morning's activities. I then froze when I heard Sebastian say something in particular. "Sebastian repeat, what you've just said!" I barked the order feeling panic well within me. He looked at me shocked and did as told. "Lady Francis is coming this afternoon to see how you're doing as well as Lady Elizabeth is already here waiting downstairs." I froze and yelled. "Have you already finished the preparations?" I asked frantically telling him to hurry up with my dressing. He gave me a skeptical look and said. "No, my lord what's with the rush, Lady Francis won't be here until this afternoon, why are you so flustered?" I looked at him like he had grown two heads. "You fool, have you forgotten that when Aunt Francis says she's going to come at a specific time she arrives two hours earlier than that!" At this Sebastian finished my dressing and quickly made his way to the door and politely made his way out. I then heard him bark order outside the doors and his fast footsteps fown the hallway. "Serves him right for being to cocky!" I quickly got off the bed and made my way out of the bedroom and down the flight of stairs to greet Lizzie who was playing with May Rin. I quickly made my way down the stairs and made myself look some-what presentable and greeted Lizzie dismissing May Rin. "Elizabeth, Good morning, how are you!" I was then knocked down and hugged. "Ciel~ You look so cute today! Kyaa!~" I smiled patting Lizzie's back. "Yes, now what brings you here today Elizabeth?" She let go of me and whined "Ciel~, I told you, call me Lizzie, how many times do I have to tell you that!" I smiled and said, "Yes, you've told me about a hundred times,…Lizzie." She smiled and said "That's better, anyway Ciel, Mother's coming today aren't you excited! Oh look! There she is!" I paled, she arrived earlier than usual, But then I calmed down when Sebastian reported that he had finished all the preparations in time. I sighed loudly and nodded. "Well then let's go greet her shall we, Sebastian." He smirked at me and said. "Yes my lord." We both then made our way outside and saw Lizzie holding someone's hands and Aunt Francis standing next to the stranger rather stiffly. I looked at the young woman carefully and leaned towards Sebastian whispering. "Sebastian, do you know of that woman Lizzie is shaking hands with." Sebastian also looked at the girl but shook his head. "I'm afraid I don't know who she is, which is rather odd, because I do sense her scent to be familiar. Though I can't quite put my finger on it." I nodded and smiled when Lizzie came back. "Ciel! Can you believe this, that girl over there is our long lost cousin whom we've never met, come on, let's go introduce you to her! Her name is Hikari!" I was then dragged by an excited Lizzie and was forced to meet the new cousin. "So Lizzie tells me you're our cousin we've never met. My name is Earl Ciel Phantomhive, nice to finally you're your acquaintance." I then forced a smile and extended my hand for her to shake. She then smiled at me warmly which oddly reminded me of my mother. I quickly shook my head and heard her speak. "Not exactly, thing is I'm Lizzie cousin, but you Ciel I'm not your cousin, I'm your sister." I then looked at her like she was the one that had grown two heads. Then there began this long silence and I began to panic I felt my-self hyperventilate and grow hysterical. "You're kidding me right? You have to be, I never had a sister! My family died 2 years ago! Who set you up to this? LEAVE!" I glared at the wretched woman in-front of me like she was the one that killed my parents and left me orphaned. She then had the nerve to look hurt and smiled weakly. "I thought this would happen, anyway it's was nice to finally meet my little brother, I want you to have this before I go though." She then grabbed a medium sized box from her belongings and walked towards me to try to give it to me. I glared at her and stepped back. She looked taken aback and nodded. She then placed the box on the ground near me and slowly walked away towards Aunt Francis hugging her. She then spoke as if I wasn't there. "It was nice to see you again Aunt Francis, love you goodbye. Oh! And Lizzie please, take care of my brother, thanks." I then snapped, why won't she give up, the lies she trying to put into everyone's head. "I'm not your brother stop acting as if you know me!" She then winced before smiling at me once more. She then said her final goodbye. "You're right sorry, sorry for disturbing your peace at home, Goodbye, this is the last you'll see of me Ciel Phantomhive and family!" she then bowed before running off to the woods. I panted and sighed running my hand through my hair. I then began to take deep breathes in the short silence that drifted through the air. However that was short lived when Aunt Francis began yelling. "You insolent child, do you know what you've just done! Who, you just sent away!" I looked at her and glared. "Yes, I sent away a psychotic person who believes her-self to be my sister!" I then heard a carriage come near us. As soon as the carriage stopped Lizzie's brother, Edward Midford, stepped out of it. He then greeted his mother and sister before giving me his usual glare. He then began his story inside the carriage. "On our way here, there was this girl running away, crying, towards the deepest part of the woods. She looked like she was running away from the manor." Aunt Francis then started explaining what happened. "Actually she was running away from the Manor, Ciel was the one to make her cry." At this I saw Edward glare at me yelling. "You no good cheating Bastard! You dare go out with some else when you have Lizzie, I should cut you where you stand!" Though Edward wasn't able to get far when Aunt Francis put her hand on his shoulder. "Edward, please let me finish. That girl, wasn't going out with Ciel, she was Hikari, Ciel's older sister. You're missing Fiancée." At this Edward froze and looked towards his mother in shock. "B-but they said she was dead, they said they never found her!" and this Edward grew angry. "Hikari came back after 13 years and you sent away crying! Do you know what you've done! DO YOU!" he then grabbed my collar and shook me before dropping me and running off towards the forest. I stood there looking at the ground. I then heard a sigh in front of me. I looked up and saw Aunt Francis give me this tired look and said. "Alright, I think it's about time you learned the truth." With that she then set off towards the Manor doors. I quickly followed her and began my questions. I left Sebastian to get the gift and bring it to me.
