Ciel's Pov

I was flipping through the documents i had to sign when i heard the loud crash from the library . My heat raced as i got up and ran towards the room . Cecilia was in front of the door , her face was pale and her lips were trembling .

Both Sebastian and Princeton put their hands on their chest and bowed to me . I could see fear in Cecilia's eyes and her hand trembled as she reached for the handle of the door .

I stopped her hand and look into her eyes. It was no doubt that her eyes is the same as mine , except mine has lo it's light and her haven't .

''What is wrong?'' I asked her and she looked at me but she did not reply .

''Bocchan . Lady Scarlett is in there.. Lady Cecilia must be worried that something might happen to her,'' Sebastian said with no emotion in his voice.

Upon hearing that, i opened the door as quickly as i could.

The entire library was a mess. Books scattered everywhere , shelves collapsed on the floor and there was no sight of Scarlett.

Cecilia walked in slowly and looked around. She looked paler than before . She walked into the centre of the room where the oak table was.

She picked up a book that was open and read it outloud.

''Once, long ago , there was a princess who was as fair as snow and her eyes shone like the moon,'' She began .

I walked over towards her and could see her face regain its colour .

''Her beauty was so great that a dragon took her as its greatest treasure and kept her locked in the castle . Her only companion was the moon as the animals was scared of the dragon that was guarding her . Many princes from far and wide heard about the princess with the incredible beauty . The king said that those who is able to defeat the dragon will be able to ask for the princess's hand in marriage.

So many brave and gallant princes fought the dragon but not a single one managed to defeat the magnificent beast. So the princess remain locked in the tower until a prince that was exiled by his own brother, the king because the people favoured the prince more was riding in the forest that was not too far from where the princess was.

He looked up in the sky and there was a paper floating. He managed to catch it and read what it says.

'Can you find the key that unlocks the princess fair?

Untangle the thorns that binds her still

Open the chest and free her heart

Defeat the mighty beast to claim her

Break her wretched curse and she will be yours

But be warned those who seek the maiden

For every hero there is bound to be a villain

A dashing prince wants her for himself

He does not plan on letting go

He who cast the mighty beast

Is the person you must defeat

So settle your heart and choose the path

Because once you enter the labyrinth

You may never find the hidden ravishing jewel

Or even the light of day again '

The prince was curious about who was it that wrote the poem . He rode on his horse until he came across the tower where the princess was,'' Cecilia stopped reading .

I came closer to her and looked at the book she was reading . the last page was thorn out and a note lay there instead.

''Will the prince save the princess in the end or the villain will keep the princess to himself and forever keep her locked up , refusing to let go?

Your first clue : The flower veins that binds are beautiful but deadly''

After reading that , Cecilia felt weak in her knees and she knelt down on the floor. She covered her hands with her ears and her tears fell like pearls on to her skirt.

''Scar... She is not by my side .. Someone took her away from me ,'' She said, her voice broken

''Do not fear , Lady Scarlett is strong . i am sure that she is able to overcome any circumstances ,'' Sebastian comforted her.

''Don't ya worry . I will find her, flat-chest,''Princeton said assuring her. Well, i am sure that calling her flat chest will make her feel so much better .

I held Cecilia's hand and looked at her face which was drenched in tears.

''I will find her. After all , she is my sister too. Remember that the Phantomhive is a family that is cursed and blessed. Trouble will always find us but we will exterminate any pest who dares who do that,'' I said .

Cecilia nodded her head and smiled slightly.

Princeton took her to the room and I called Sebastian to the study.

''The flower veins that binds are beautiful and deadly. It have to be roses,'' I said looking at the note left by the person who took Scarlett.

''Roses are too cliché, don't you think so? Bocchan?'' Sebastian said

''Since when are kidnapping cases cliché? Most of the fairytales explains that roses are the symbol of beauty. They are beautiful but dangerous as well . Roses after all, reflects the Phantomhive. Alluring yet perilous ,'' I said looking out of the window.

''Bocchan, there seems to be a Rose Garden party held by the Sefead family tomorrow afternoon . You have receive a letter of invitation this morning . There might be a possible connection to the kidnapping of Lady Scarlett?'' Sebastian said

''The Sefead family? Their Garden parties has been the talk of the town every summer. I bet Lizzy is going to their party ... Then it is decided then. We the Phantomhive family will go to the party and find any clue about Scarlett!'' I said out loud

Sebastian put his hand on his chest and said ''Yes , my Lord,''

Cece's Pov

I followed Prince to my room . All the images of Scar being slaughtered in my nightmares came rushing to my head at once, making it seem that the walls around me are spinning.

Next thing i knew was that i lay against something hard and cold and someone kept calling out my name .Then everything was dark . I stood alone in pitch black room.

I could not see anything in front of me . I was alone in the tranquil darkness. I kept crying and tried to call out Scar's name . Someone pulled my hand . His/her hand was warm and gentle like the moonlight's rays.

It called out my name softly and whispered ,''Its okay... I promised you didn't I?''

I woke up to see a familiar face . However , it was not the face that I wanted to see.

''Are you alright now? You gave me a fright , flat-chest,'' Prince said while scratching his head.

I look at him and then looked around me . I was in my bed . Could Prince have carried me to my room?

''You don'hav to worry about your sista . I am sure she will be safe . After all , she is better at keeping calm and she looks like she can handle herself. You on the other hand, are a mere weakling ,'' Prince said harshly to me .

''I know... I know that she is better than me . I want to hate her because she is everything i could not be . She is prettier , taller and even more developed in the chest area. I wanted to hate her . Just a little. I was jealous of her . But how could I hate her when she always loved me? She stood by me with all her heart ,'' I said, tears swells up in my eyes

''She is my sister and she would do anything to save me . I was always the weaker one . Without Scar , i feel empty and scared. I feel like the whole world changed into something scary,'' I said, trying to hold back the tears , but i couldn't stop it. By the next second, i was crying .

''Uaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhh,'' I wailed as the tears drenched my face.

''Shhh... No no no.. Please do not cry ... Shhhh... Flat-chest, do not cry !,'' Prince started to stop me from crying but i did not stop.

''No no no... Err... I promise I will not call you flat-chest anymore!,'' He tried again but it was in vain too .

I tried to stop crying but I failed miserably . I was crying like a hysterical person and i knew it . Even though i was embarrassed at myself for crying in front of Prince.

Prince patted my head like i was some kind of kitten . He look away from my face as he spoke .

''Being weak is what makes someone persevere . When your sister is not around I will protect you ,'' Prince said shyly .

I stopped wailing and smiled at him .

''I-I-Itss be-because I am your butler ! Nothing more! So wipe your tears !'' He said to me and stormed out of the room , covering his face with his hand.

It was then , I decided that Prince was not really a bad person after all.

Prince decided to show his good side ! *Ciel calls his sisters by their full names . Only Cece and Scar calls each other (and Prince) by their nicknames*

Hope you enjoyed it !
