'The Phantomhive manor, huh wonder if he will elaborate on where exactly that is?'
Before you could ask you noticed the young man you had met earlier staring at you as if a third leg had appeared, or boob for that matt...'HOLY SHIT I AM IN MY UNDERWEAR!'
Looking down you realized just how you must appear, the undergarments for which lined your kimono had long been forgotten. And the little trip through the trees did not seem to help with their current state, having now left many little rips and tears along the delicate fabrics.
"Oh now that just will not do, Miss if I may?" Fabric whooshing. "Now that is much better!"
Looking down you realized the butler had put his tail coat around you, hiding your new found shame. 'Hell of a first impression -first name-.' "Thank you, I do apologize I seem to have found myself in a predicament." You said in slightly broken English, 'Great what can I tell them, OH I CAME THROUGH THAT WELL DOWN OVER THE HILL AND I AM FROM SO AND SO MANY YEARS IN THE PAST, ALSO I AM TECHNICALLY FROM THE FUTURE TO, well it did work once before?'
"Sebastian. Who is it?" A voice called behind the only half-opened doors. "It appears to be a woman, young master. And given her state of undress, I am guessing she is here requiring your assistance." The butler replied seemingly annoyed, but his eyes had never left yours.
"Send her away." "But young maste.." "Send her away Sebastian, I have no interest in helping anyone." Your heart started racing, you still had no clue of your exact location or the time period. And the well is probably located on his property, that has to be the only way back.
'I HAVE TO FIND A WAY TO STAY!'
"Sir if I may, I am able to give payment but the only money I have I am sure is outdated and foreign, but I do have many great skill sets, along with a very strong work ethic! I will surely repay you with my time if I may!" You said in a haste. "I have enough servants, any more will not be worth the trouble." The young boy replied, your heart started to sink.
"But sir, I did notice the weeds growing slightly over your walkways, and the windows appear to need to a good cleaning, not to mention the dust!" You said, hating calling out the servants that already work here, especially the sweet boy beside you, but you had to find a way.
"Young Master, she does hold a valid point in the matter. We do not have the best amount of help. 'Sebastian thinking back to this morning when Mey-Rin broke yet another priceless set of porcelain.' and it will help our current staff greatly to have such a highly aware individual around to help." The butler told his master, you could not help the strange feeling he knew more about you than you were willing to tell.
"Bring her to me." was all the boy said, and before you knew it the tall man was practically dragging you into the spacious room and up to a desk where a young boy, a REALLY young boy. 'Is he fucking ten? What the hell, okay this has to be a dream.'
"Hello sir, it is nice to now see the person behind the voic..." You began to say before being cut off. "Silence, if you're to work here I will need to know more of your 'skill set' before allowing you to take the name of a Phantomhive servant." The young boy said, his eyes or well his eye was cold, and seemed to be very disinterested in anything that happened at the moment. You took the time to study the boy while he was talking noticing he only came up to about 5ft. His hair had a slight blue hue to it, almost matching his eyes had they been darker. His skin was pale, even rivaling as pale as Sesshomaru's. He wore an eyepatch over his right eye, you assumed it had to be from him getting hurt by someone. No one, definitely not someone as young as he appeared could be this cold without reason.
"Ask any questions you would like, and I will answer to the best of my abilities sir." You told him, 'I just need to play my cards right and I should be in".
"First off how good are you at hand to hand combat, or with weapons?" 'WHAT THE HELL KIND OF A QUESTION IS THAT, I AM APPLYING FOR A MAID POSITION NOT A BODYGUARD.' Your mind was racing why in the world would he ask that?
With your internal walls now slammed as high as they go, you answered him a little fearfully but full of truth.
"I have many years of experience in a very war torn area, I have fought many that are much stronger than me and came out the champion. I do have a lot of training with a sword and bow, but I have not used a gun for many years, though I still know how my first time using one again may be spotty. If I may, why do you require such sir?"
"As you can tell I have a large property, there are always looters, and sometimes idiots think they can kidnap me for ransom. All of my servants must be able to protect me, with their lives if necessary." The boy said, one hand propping up his head as if he was entirely bored with the conversation. "And given your 'experience' I will give you a short trial period and see how you do if I decide afterward that we do not require you I will send you away, and you shall never return, do we have a deal?"
'Wow, he sure is curt isn't he?' "Yes sir, I am positive you will be happy with the results I bring." You said with a smile and a slight bow of your head. 'I sure am glad I worked in a palace for a year.'
"Alright, Sebastian take her to a room and get her some decent clothes. I am growing tired of a naked woman being in my home." The boy said as he looked back down at what he was doing on his desk.
'HOLY CRAP I forgot I was only in my underwear and the man's tailcoat!, wow I cannot even impress a 12 that's one for the self-esteem.'
"Come with me my lady," The man now known as Sebastian asked extending a hand for you to take. "Thank you," You say taking his hand and following him.
Ciel Phantomhive's POV
'That girl seemed very strange, and the way Sebastian reacted to her. Something has to be up for him.' "Or maybe the damn demon has just lost his mind." Ciel said aloud. Looking down he looked at the paper that desperately required his attention about his companies in India. But with all the entertainment he just received he cannot get his mind to focus. Her manner of dress, or at least lack thereof, but what about the clothing she was wearing, aside from Sebastian's tailcoat appeared to be very outdated and explicitly Japanese. She did not appear to be Japanese at least not fully if any.
'Why did Sebastian take her hand? Why not just have her follow behind as he does all the others? This girl is different, and he is going to tell me just how." With that Ciel decided he had spent enough time thinking into all that had just transpired, it should be saved for a later note. He has work to do.
Your POV
"And here you are!" Sebastian told you, opening the door to a rather quaint room. "Now we are in the servants quarters, and it does tend to get drafty during certain months, so we have a large blanket supply in the closet down the hall if you should ever need one."
"Breakfast will be served at 8 am sharp, the midday meal at 12 pm, and dinner is served at 4 pm we must never be late. Our cook is Baldroy, our gardener the boy you met earlier is Finnian, our head maid is Mey-Rin, and finally, Tanaka is our house steward.
"Thank you very much, If I may when will I learn about my duties?"
"That will begin tomorrow, as for today we will allow you to just get used to the manor. Fresh clothing is located in the wardrobe, and the bathroom is down the hall to the left. If you have any questions feel free to find me. Have a good day - Oh I have seemed to have forgotten your name, miss?" Sebastian said, looking at you for your reply. "My name is _First_ _Last_."
"Thank you miss _Last_, have a good evening." And with that, he was gone.
"I have to get back to Japan." You said aloud, with a groan you collapsed onto the bed you now assume to be yours. "Hey, at least the bed is comfy."
