Chapter 7
"This arrow will make you see differently." Ms. Henderson said. "You see, this arrow will make you hate the first person you see. Which will be Sebastian." she aimed at me.
"SEBASTIAN!"
A split second later, the door burst opened, and Sebastian and Grell ran throught. But they were too late.
I was already shot.
I closed my eyes, not wanting to put the arrow in effect.
"Sebastian," I said.
"Yes, my Lady?" he said, standing in front of me.
"I can't see you." I said.
"Of course you can, just open your eyes." he said.
I shook my head. "No, the arrow she shot me with. If I open my eyes, I will hate the first person I see." I explained.
"I wonder why she would do something like that?" Grell wondered aloud.
"Because she was in love with that demon." Ms. Henderson said. "We cupids absolutely despise demons, so I shot her with a Hate Arrow."
"Mistress, what is she talking about?" Sebastian asked me.
I felt my cheeks getting warm.
"Umm, you see, I used your name in order to get an appointment with her." I said.
"Wait, so you aren't in love with him?" Henderson asked.
I hesitated.
Should I lie or tell the truth?
"Well?" Grell impatiently asked.
"It doesn't matter!" I said. "The whole point of this was to report to Ms. Henderson that one of her cupids kidnapped Prince Richard."
There was silence.
"What are you talking about, Ciel?" she asked.
I sighed. "One of your cupids kidnapped Prince Richard and took him from his wife and child." I explained.
"Where did that clerk go?" Grell noticed.
"She's right here. What are you? Bli-" Ms. Henderson gasped when she turned to see her parnter not next to her.
"I knew there was something fishy about her." Sebastian said.
"Hannah isn't a cupid, though." she said.
"Then she must've stolen another cupid's arrows and bow and used it." I concluded.
"That explains the off-target arrows." Sebastian said.
"That also explains Jenny's missing equipment." she muttered to herself. I heard her walk around her desk and speak into an intercom.
"Red Alert, Red Alert. We have a code Red. Seal all the doors and make sure Hannah does not exit the building!" An alarm sounded and I heard stomping throughout the halls.
"Finally, some action around her." Grell muttered.
If I didn't have the Hate Arrows spell on me, I would've glared at him. Not even Grell deserved my hatred.
Instead I settled on yelling, "What are we standing around for?! We need to go after her!"
I heard everyone leave the room, and I stood there.
"Hello?" I asked. I couldn't hear anyone in the room.
"Great, they left me in a futuristic room all by myself." I said.
"I wouldn't say you were all by yourself," I heard Sebastian say. I shrieked and jumped back.
"Sebastian! You should know better than to startle me like that." I said, squeezing my eyes shut. "I could've opened my eyes."
"And what's the problem with that?" he asked. "I thought you already hated me."
"I don't." I admitted. "You're the only person who has stood by my side since that day. Not that you had a choice." I added.
"I'm curious then. Why did you use my name instead of your fiance's?" he asked. "It's obvious you didn't know she hated demons."
I blushed. "I don't know." I said. It wasn't the whole truth, but it was part of it.
"I think I do." he said. I heard his heavy footsteps move towards me.
I backed up and fell over the couch. I was blushing madly now that my legs were in the air.
I kept my eyes shut as I pulled my skirt down and maneuvered around to stand up.
"What are you doing, Sebastian?" I asked.
There was no answer.
Suddenly, I was spun around and Sebastian lips crashed into mine.
Out of shock, I opened my eyes.
Wrong move.
The tingling sensation in my stomach lingered for a moment, then turned sour.
He pulled away and saw, much to his disappointment, that I was glaring at him.
He realized what he had done.
"Mistress," he said.
I slapped him. Well, I didn't, but it seemed that my hatred had pushed my control down. I felt myself watching my body act on it's own.
What am I doing?! I screamed to myself. There was no reason for that!
Sebastian looked in shock at me, a bright red hand mark fading away. My hatred must not have been satisfied, because it hit him again.
STOP IT! I cried. My hatred was controlling my body, and I didn't like it.
My body clutched it's head in pain.
Huh. If I put up a fight, I might be able to win my body back. I said.
Recovering quickly, my hatred approached Sebastian again.
NO! I shouted, my anger temporarily gaining the use of my body. I threw myself into the floor.
Sebastian looked at me in confusion, and I sat up, looking at him.
"Help." I said, before my hatred kicked in again. He must've understood, because in a second, he had me pinned to the floor.
I saw myself under him, trying to get away.
"GET OFF ME!" it commanded.
Sebastian looked hesitant, seeing it was an order, but didn't budge.
I saw my chance to gain control.
I will not let my hatred win. I said. I never have, and I never will.
"SHUT UP!" My hatred yelled.
NO! I will keep fighting! I said.
Once again, I gained control of my body.
"Sebastian," I pleaded.
"Mistress?" he asked.
"Kiss me." I ordered. He looked at me in surprise.
My hatred took over again, and I was pushed down.
"Don't!" it said. But Sebastian had already heard my order, and kissed me.
I felt my hatred melting. He pulled away.
"Sebastian?" I asked.
"Yes, my Mistress?" he asked.
"Don't call me that. When we are alone, you call me Ciel." I ordered.
"As you wish my-" he stopped. "Ciel." he said.
I smiled. "Now, lets go get that cupid."
