We arrived at the kitchen a couple of minutes later. Bard, Finni, and Tanaka were already there.
Yes, I figured out his name is Tanaka. Still not sure how, but yes, I figured it out. If only I could do that to myself… What? You think I haven't tried already? Well, I did, and it didn't work.

Well, there was Bard, wearing the chef's attire, asleep, half standing and halfway lying on the counter, and a bunch of cooking supplies lying around him.

Mey-Rin walked up to him and poked him. "Hey, Bard. Wake up, time for breakfast."

He stood up quickly and started to talk. Although, I have no idea what he said because his words were so badly slurred. And then he simply fell down. I peered over the counter to see him on the floor groaning and clutching his head.

"A hangover, huh? Serves you right you drunk." My eyes opened wider as I realized that I was the one who said that. I quickly slapped a hand over my mouth and Mey-Rin and Finni burst out laughing. Bard, who hadn't heard me, started groaning at the loud noises and, Tanaka, well, he chuckled lightly. He seems to do that a lot. And I stood there like an idiot wondering why that was so funny.

That, of course, was the scene that Sebastian first saw when he walked into the kitchen. He saw Bard on the ground and seemed to understand the situation suddenly, except for why Mey-Rin and Finni were laughing of course, but that didn't matter at the moment.

"Finni, remove Bard from the room, please. Mey-Rin, help him. Kitt, come here, I'm going to show you how to cook a quick breakfast for everyone in case this happens again." And, by the way he said it, this seems to happen often and he probably ends up cooking breakfast for them every time. It just seems that those three- four aren't capable of very much.

Turns out, cooking breakfast is easy. Sebastian showed me how, and I did it. Easy. Well, for me it is anyway…

After breakfast, I was told that I would be helping everyone out a lot, but I was going to be called a maid just because.

...

First, Finni showed me the garden. After all, he was the gardener. It was truly a sight to see. The long passages of grass, the tall, superior trees, and the small garden shed, the rose bushes, the tulip patches, the small stone courtyard, and the rolling hills stretched across a large piece of land. The clear air, the bright sun, the fluffy clouds, and the birds' songs seemed to lift some of the fog in my head and cleared out the headaches that had been restricting me before. I never wanted to leave.

"It's so beautiful, Finni." I sighed.

"I know. I'm so grateful to the young master for this life I have now. I get to see this garden every day." He replied looking distant.

"You know, Finni, I think I might actually understand you now." I said, not once removing my eyes from the scenery.

He sighed. "Yeah. You know the me now."

Wait, what? I looked at Finni, getting ready to ask him what he meant, but I stopped mid-breath.

I looked at Finni's expression closely. He had the most content look on his face that I could imagine and I realized this was the perfect life for him. But there was sadness in his eyes, not because of his life now, but because of his life then. I understood what his last statement meant at that moment, but I also wanted to know what his past was like-

Suddenly a searing pain entered my brain. I was blinded and I collapsed onto the ground. I heard someone screaming and realized it was me. I briefly caught a glance of Finni and his expression told me he didn't know what to do. He gingerly but quickly picked me up, but that when I saw it. It was the images again; they played on my eyes again. This time it was Finni's turn. I saw it all. From the abduction, to the experiments, to the final injection, then a shadow, Sebastian, a hand, the Phantomhive estate, Ciel, the garden, the others, and then me. The pain stopped, and my body went limp. And that was it. Darkness came once again. But at least I now knew the real Finni…

...

"Stop it!" I screamed. The darkness was never-ending. The voices. Please make the voices go away.

"Outcast"

"Delinquent"

"Brat"

"Bitch"

"Trash"

The names don't bother me it's what the voices of the name-callers are saying.

"Who do you think you are?"

"You don't belong here!"

"What makes you so special?"

"Why would he choose that Thing?"

"I heard that she was born into it."

"You're a liar. That's a lie."

"Mommy, Why are her wings black?"

"Don't look, honey. She will infect you."

I don't understand. What's going on? Please! Can't anyone hear me!? Listen to me! Somebody! Anybody! Help me…

...

"Oh. It seems like her memories are trying to come back, but too fast and trying to force everything else out of her head. She needs to relax a little more, lose the tension, and not push herself to remember them." Instructed a familiar doctor's voice. I was guided back to consciousness by it and, when I saw the doctor, I smiled. She smiled back at me and stated "You heard what I said, relax. Ok?"

I nodded my head in agreement. The terror left over from my dream still not allowing me to speak.

"Ok. Well I'm going to go continue my business with Ciel, then." She stood up gave a parting wave to me and walked out, leaving me in the room by myself. I crawled out of the bed and walked to the door and opened it. There stood all the servants, except for Sebastian. I was flattered that they all were worried about me. Even Bard, who looked like he was still a bit ill, but not enough to prevent him from work.

"You alright?" one of them asked.

"Yeah. Just my memories trying to shove their way back into my head. I'm not allowed to think of my past anymore." I answered, even though, in my head, some different thoughts were coursing through. 'More like I can't think of your past or anybody else's for that matter'. But there is no way I was going to say that.

We walked around and everyone showed and explained everything to me.

The first stop was the main kitchen where I was shown where everything was and what to be careful of. They pointed to a door in the back of the main kitchen. "That is Sebastian's private kitchen. We are not allowed in there." They all said monotonously. Sebastian must have really drilled that into their heads.

Then everyone returned back to work, except for Mey-Rin who decided she was going to show me the rest of the house.

Before I could see the rest of the house, however, there was an explosion that shook the floor. Mey-Rin took off running towards the kitchen. "Stay there, I will be right back!" she yelled, stumbling over the edge of the carpet.

I glanced around at the room I was in. There were designs everywhere, nice carpets, multiple doors leading out of it, two tall windows, some chairs, a table, and a piano. I sat down on the piano bench, not wanting to mess up the chairs' cushion, and suddenly I felt drawn to it. The cover had been left open, and I turned around to face it. I could tell something was up. I lifted my hands, and held them above the keys. Suddenly, a spark connected my fingers to different keys and I played the key with the thickest spark. I then did the next and so on. I played faster and faster until my fingers were a blur. "Too fast again." I muttered, noticing how my movements weren't at normal speed anymore.

About a minute later I noticed that there was someone watching me. I stopped playing, removed my hands from the keys, stood up, and slowly turned my head to the bystander. It was a little girl, ok, she was my size but younger. She wore a really frilly dress and had two blonde, curly pigtails. Her bright green eyes were filled with curiosity and awe, as she ran up to me.

"You're so cute! That was such a beautiful piece! You looked so happy playing the piano! I wish I could do that! I love your outfit! Wait. That's my old outfit! I'm glad it could be of use. So are you the new maid that Madame Red told me about? Your name is… Kitt! You're just as pretty as she told me!" She talked fast, but, lucky for me, I listened carefully.

"So you must be Lady Elizabeth. You're not how I imagined you. You're cuter!" I squealed.

She smiled and slightly blushed. "Thank you! Nobody ever calls me cute like that! Oh. And, call me Lizzy." She said, flustered.

"So what's the occasion for your visit?" I asked, seriously curious.

"You see Ciel is my fiancé. And I'm here to visit him!" she stated all chipper-like. But I noticed how her movements said she was hiding something.

"Do your parents know you're here?" I asked defiantly. She looked at me guiltily and I knew I was right. She turned around and took off running while yelling Ciel's name.

I sighed, staying where I was because who knows where she was going and I didn't want to become anymore lost.

...

A while later Mey-Rin came back covered in a black dust. She told me that she was going to the room to change clothes and that all the servants were to meet in the front hall in a couple of minutes.

I started for the front hall, since, it was one of the few rooms that I knew the location of. When I got there… Umm. Let me describe.

Finni and Bard were wearing cute, but still ridiculous, outfits. Tanaka, the same. There was another man there in a butlers' attire but he was also wearing some cute accessories. Madame Red was sitting on a chair off to the side. Ciel had Lizzy hanging from his neck. And Sebastian… Well, he looked totally ridiculous in that pink bonnet.

I slapped a hand over my mouth before I could burst out laughing, but I couldn't help the small noises that leaked out.

Mey-Rin walked in the door behind Finni and Bard and burst out in a fit of chuckles. Bard glared at her and scanned the room. Then he stopped, whispered to the other two, pointed at Sebastian, and they all burst out laughing not even trying to smother it. Sebastian turned around and hit them all upside the head. That only made this whole situation even funnier and I fell down from so much laughter.

All the servants turned their head to look at the ruckus I was making and I saw Sebastian and Bard coming at me even before they started moving. I jumped up and moved behind Mey-Rin, continuing with my laughter while the two men lunged at the now empty spot. Bard looked confused and Sebastian was… Wait, where was Sebastian? I peeked over Mey-Rin's shoulder. He wasn't anywhere in the room. I suddenly realized there was a source of warmth behind me and quickly understood how much trouble I was in. I tried to run away, only to feel an arm wrap around my waist and hoist me over a shoulder like a sack of potatoes. I struggled but it didn't work. I was stuck.

Sebastian had dragged me out of the room and now was carrying me on his shoulder to who-knows-where. A couple of minutes later, I was sat down on the kitchen counter. One of his hands each on my shoulders pinning me to the counter. Ok, I was now officially scared. Maybe mentally I was scared but my body took over and pushed him off me roughly and for some reason my heart wasn't beating fast. Next thing I knew my mouth was open and I said rudely "What do you want? And did you have carry me hear? You could have just asked me to follow you. And why am I on the counter!? I'm not a meal." I started to climb off when suddenly his hand snapped out pinning my leg to the table. And the look on his face was emotionless. Well, almost. He had a very slight blush on his face, very slight. "Awwww. We blushin' now?" I mocked. Man! I need to shut up. He's a Demon for goodness sakes! But I noticed his face stiffen and then his eyes softened slightly as he said, with such a gentle yet commanding and persistent tone, "I need your help." I paled, shocked. He, a Demon, one that never pays any attention to me and just rudely carried me here, was asking for my help?

"With what?" I asked cautiously.

He stood up, composed himself, smiled, and answered my question.

"Lady Elizabeth wants to have a ball tonight. I am certain Young Master doesn't know how to dance. Snacks are going to be needed. Music is going to be needed. Cleaning is absolutely necessary. And the other servants are completely useless, and are probably going to make a mess of things. Also clothing, Lady Elizabeth can do that but she is going to need help."

"Ok. I'll help in return you are going to answer three of my questions truthfully and easy to understand. Deal?" I bargained.

"Only three, and deal." He agreed. And we sealed the deal with a handshake.

When I tried to pull my hand away from Sebastian, he pulled me towards his private kitchen. Once we were in, I asked "Why do you have your own private kitchen?"

"Is that one of your questions?" He asked, grinning.

"No!" I quickly snapped. "I want all my questions to benefit me. But, I was just curious."

"Curiosity killed the cat." He said in a playful way, yet, with a tint of serious hostility. He pulled out some baking supplies.

"Hmp!" I pouted. I took a cautious step away from him, grabbed some mixing bowls from one counter, and transferred them to the one he was working on.

He sighed as he mixed some ingredients together. "Haven't you noticed yet that those three are destructive? Finni's extreme strength tears trees right out of the ground, Mey-Rin is a clumsy ditz, and Bard likes to cook with bombs and flame throwers."

"Yeah. I guess I got a hint of all that." I said, smiling, as I washed a bowl he had just finished using.

...

As I worked I noticed that we were actually having an entertaining conversation. And I don't mean entertaining as funny, but entertaining as interesting. Kitt is definitely the most interesting person I have ever met. I don't know what she is. I don't want to ask. And when I'm around her I'm not as good at things that I normally do perfectly. In fact, I seem to get flustered around her and I can't do much right, something always goes wrong, but that's not her doing or her fault, it's mine.

For once, God, Help me.

...

"I also have to train that suicidal butler as a favor that Ciel owes Madame Red." Sebastian stated.

"Really? Oh yeah. I saw him, Lizzy dressed him up too. What's his name?"

"Grell Sutcliff."

"What a weird name…"

Sebastian looked at her. Her voice and expression had changed. This made him realize how human she actually was. Her expressions changed unconsciously and uncontrolled, and they gave away what she was thinking. But, if she wasn't human, just what was she?

...

There you go! Longest Chappie yet!

Kitt(Mumbling): Suck up.

Sebastian: She just wants some reviews. Is that so wrong?

Me: Shut it you two!

*Kitt and Sebastian stare at me*

Me: What? Anyways, review!
