"You didn't say there would be this many people."

The moon danced across the sky, though out of sync to the music that loudly played. The music itself, however, was being drowned out by the many voices that spoke over it. Lillith stood by Ciel's side, her face twisted in annoyance. Personally, she didn't like social gatherings. they made her uncomfortable and tired her out rather quickly.

"Well, its not like i can predict the future. I actually didn't know this many people fancied you." Lillith smirked, ignoring the glare Ciel tossed her way. "For a 'lady', you aren't very pleasant." Lillith only smirked more at his statement, her eyes gleaming with amusement.

"Lilly..?" Lillith whipped her head around, her eyes narrowed and mouth a gap to prepare herself for the 'speech' she was about to give. Her eyes softened, noticing who it was. Edgard stood, his blonde hair pulled into a low loose ponytail, and his grey eyes shining with excitement. He was a dashing young man. But as many knew, with great rewards come a 'catch'.

"Lilly, it is you!"

Lillith hissed as Edgard threw his Arms around her neck, his hand gently petting her head. "For the last time. My name is not Lilly." she loathed that name, as much as she shouldn't. A smirk pulled as Ciel's lips, obviously finding the scene amusing. Once out of Edgard's grasp, Ciel spoke.

"care to introduce us, Lillith?" There was a certain ring in his tone, making him come off more of a smart ass then as a person who honestly cared. rolling her eyes, Lillith turned her eyes to Edgard. "My Fiance, Edgard. You may better know him as nephew to Lord Aleister Chamber." Edgard smiled, extending his hand. But Ciel was lost in thought, giving a shiver to his memories of Aleister.

"I see you know him." Edgard rubbed the back of his head, chuckling rather nervously. His uncle had a reputation that he didn't really agree with. But he was still family. recovering from his state, Ciel turned his attention back to Lillith. He found himself in a wonder.

For someone so sick, it was amazing that she even had the strength to bother with such things like throwing a party, dealing with her Fiance, as well as his odd family. suddenly, the Pasty white skin and lifeless eyes.. didn't seemed so dull.
Perhaps she was more full of life then he original assumed.

"I didn't think you'd come, considering the case, and all.." Edgard looked down, sympathy forming. Against his expectation, Lillith didn't even flinch. "Though he was my brother, i trust that the queen had a good reason for closing the case. Perhaps he'll.. turn up on his on."

There it was. That tightening in her throat that she wanted to avoid. She could feel the anger pulsing through her blood, the sadness pulling unwilling tears to the corners of her eyes. All she wanted was her little brother back. The only person she allowed to call her Lilly.

Lillith bowed her head, her bangs hiding her eyes. "I'm sorry, excuse me." She hurried past Edgard, her shoulder shoving into his for a moment. "Lillith wait-!" Edgard puffed out his bottom lip. "Damn, I knew I should had kept my mouth shut." Jezebel didn't bother going after her young mistress. In such times, she was often scolded when she witnessed her in weakness.

"What on earth came over her?" Ciel muttered, raising a brow.


Lillith stared at her reflection in the bathroom mirror, her lifeless eyes examining herself closely. Day by day, she was watching herself die. Eventually, she would be 6 feet under, a Stone with her name carved on it laying before her resting place.

The empty feeling.. It was the same emptiness that she had felt the moment her brother went missing. That was when her reality came crashing.

She focused her vision on her eyes, her familiar Emerald orbs awakening memories she had long put aside.

"Lilly~!" a high pitched voice cooed.

Turning away from her studies, the young and healthy Lillith smiled softly as her younger brother hurried towards her. His eyes were as green as the day was long, while his hair was short and dark, like a midnight sky on a new moon. His smile was bright enough to light up any day.

"Mum's getting really sick. she says its just an owie inside her." The boy sat himself on Lillith's lap, though she wasn't much bigger then him. "Shes right, though. but not all owies are the same. Some owies that are inside only hurt your heart, making you sad." Lillith pressed her hand on her brother's chest, smiling gently.

Daniel groaned softly. She had told him that many times, just as their mother told him about her owie many times. He considered it cheesy, and rather stupid.

"Lilly?" Lillith made a sound, indicating that she was listening.
"No matter what, you'll always be my flower, alright? No one else's."

A pair of arms wrapped around Lillith, Bringing a cloth to her mouth as she gasped. She tired to focus her eyes on the man that held her, but thanks to the chemical's in the old rag, her vision was blurred. In a matter of moments, her body went limp and silent.


Ciel sighed, bored with the conversation at hand. Edgard was a good guy, but unbelievably talkative and rather optimistic. It reminded him of his own Fiance. "Shes been gone a while.." Ciel rose his head to his butler's words.

She hadn't returned yet?

Edgard frowned softly, his talking coming to a total halt. "I'll go look for her."

Ciel turned his eyes over to Jezebel, who's face was twisted in concern and wonder. "surely if she was in trouble, she would have called on you." Ciel muttered. Jezebel gave him an uncertain look. Suddenly, even he was concerned. "My mistress is a stubborn one. She likes to do things on her own, rather then accept my help. But i cant do anything until her life is really in danger.. regardless of how hurt she ends up."

Ciel Narrowed his eyes, a hiss slipping his mouth. "Idiot, women. Sebastian." Sebastian bowed silently. "lets go find her."


"Lets start the Bidding!"

slowly, Lillith's eyes blinked open, confusion crossing her expression. "the bloody hell is this..?" her voice hissed. the room was stuffy, as if it had been drowned in smoke and ashes for 20 years. The looks was no better. It seemed her cage was seated beside another on an old wooden stage, which hissed and snaps with every move she made. Along the walls the wallpaper was beginning to peel while the wood frame laid with chips and missing planks. "its best you don't gather too much attention. they like a fighter, apparently." Lillith turned her head slightly as she rubbed the back of her neck. it was a girl, around 19 years old. she was smiling, regardless of the fact that she was in a cage.

"what is this? Who are you, if i may ask?"

the girl sighed softly, her expression becoming bored. "Lord Aleister Chamber has gone and done it again. I'm Cyrene Phantomhive. and you are?" Lillith blinked, her skin white with shock. well.. whiter to be exact. "I'm Lillith Rosemond. Your business partner.." With a smile, Cyrene held out her hand for Lillith to shake. a Cane smacked Lillith's hand, forcing her to pull it back. "378,791 going twice!"

how much of this action did Lillith actually miss?

"Sold-!" The doors busted open, a familiar french maid, tall dark haired man and a ocean eyed boy stood with their eyes narrowed. Ciel blinked, his eyes stopping on his older sister, who waved lightly at them. "Didn't i tell you to stay home?!" he huffed. But Cyrene only shrugged. "I couldn't let you have all the fun. And when were you planning on telling me that we made a partnership?" She crossing her arms, raising her brow.

"this isn't the time for that." Ciel huffed, making his way over to the cages. Everyone inside the action room had already scattered, leaving only them. "You shouldn't be so reckless, Young mistress." Sebastian sighed, easily breaking the bars and pulling Cyrene out. Ciel bent down, picking up the keys that the announcer had dropped. he wasn't a demon, but at least he was smart. he unlocked the door, helping Lillith to her feet.

"your not very Elegant, are you?" Ciel huffed. Lillith sighed softly. Nope. no where NEAR elegant. he sighed, letting go of her hand, which he previously used to pull her up. A light pink shade brushed across her cheeks. she turned her head away, huffing softly.

At least the ass had soft hands.

"Thank you." Lillith muttered softly, Making the young Earl snap his head over to her in shock. "The hardships I've faced may have made my stronger, but it hasn't done much for my attitude. For a lady, I'm not more pleasant then a fly in a silent room. For that, I'm sorry."

Ciel sighed softly. "Don't be a fool." Lillith blinked, her eyes snapping up to him in silent shock. "Your wounds are still fresh, aren't they?" Lillith blinked, looking down at herself. she Didn't seemed to have an injury. "No. The ones here." He pointed to her chest.

An owie inside.

"Don't let them heal. Let your hate become the fuel for your revenge. Don't change. Personally, i enjoy your company as you are." Ciel avoided her gaze, his arms crossed over his chest boldly.

Sebastian and Cyrene exchanged a look, the two smiling ever so slightly.

Ciel huffed, quickly making his way towards the door. "lets get back to the Party." he hissed. Jezebel followed her Mistress, a soft smile forming. it seemed that the Elegant Lilly had finally found herself a group of friends to call her own.

Lillith huffed, stumbling over her own feet.

Perhaps she wasn't so Elegant..
