Welcome back! I have less and less to say, I have a day off school to go to the doctors so I will try and post twice, but I don't know... thank you for reviews/follows/favourites, you guys are awesome. ENJOY!
Annalise's POV
Ciel stared at me confused.
"What do you mean?" I sighed.
"What do you think I mean? Can I trust you?"
"Of course you can! No-one will know!" I nodded.
"Once upon a time, there was a girl. But this girl was different. She was a princess. True she had no title, but in her parent's eyes, she was the most royal princess. Her kingdom extended to the walls around the house nd into the forest at the back of her house. This girl shared the forest of her kingdom with another girl. These two girls were neighbouring princesses. This girl is Gemma." Gemma grabbed my hand and squeezed it. I turned my head to her and smiled. "They met in the forest about 14 years ago. They've been close ever since. But... when this girl was merely six, the kingdom lost their Queen... murder. The princess and the Queen were home alone. A group just waltz in. Thought to set the place ablaze, kill anyone inside. My mother begged for my life. SHE GOT DOWN ON HER FUCKING KNEES AND PLEADED WITH THEM! BUT THEY DIDN'T CARE THEY JUST PULLED OUT THEIR FUCKING GUNS AND SHOT HER IN PLACES THAT WOULD KILL HER STRAIGHT AWAY. THEN THEY FUCKING WATCHED HER DIE. RIGHT IN FRONT OF ME." My whole body was shaking. Gemma had pushed back the chair.
"Get Ciel away from her!" Sebastian stared at her, greatly confused. I stared at my nails and watched them go black. I looked at my arms as they turned pale. I saw as my hair turned black. I smiled.
"Ahhh, she finally let me out." I heard them gasp. "This is gonna be fun..."
Sebastian's POV
I stared at this girl and picked up the young master, bringing him to behind her friend. Her body transformed and seemed to turn... perfect? Her hair became matted. Her skin got paler, but the most extraordinary thin were her eyes, they went from a blue to a deep shade of red. She smiled creepily at us, I was going to ask but Gemma beat me to it.
"PUT HER BACK IN CONTROL!" The girl smiled.
"ahh, but she is no fun!" The girl pouted. "And I am hungry!"
"Don't touch him." Gemma turned and faced me. "This is not a person you want to mess with." I smiled but she only shook her head. "This is her demon form. She... we are all not what we seem. But, the younger two, even they have grasped and merged their demon for with their human form, but... Annalise... she can't seem to grasp it..." I heard the young master gasp.
"So, you're all half demons?"
"I'm getting bored!" The girl in front of me turned her attention back to the other girl. She raised her skirt to just before her hip, revealing her mark. It was a deep red against the paleness of her leg. The girl sighed and pulled down her left sock, revealing her own mark.
"LET HER BACK IN CHARGE!"
"Fine, but I'll be back!" She closed her eyes and her body slowly returned to normal. Her body wavered for a moment, before dropping. I caught her at just the right time. Her eyes slowly opened, they returned to a pale blue. She blinked her eyes a few times.
"I have a shit ton of explaining to do, don't I?" The door smashed open and a man stood at the now open door. His green eyes scanning the room before turning back around. Music played in the background.
"Fuck this shit I'm out!" He turned the corner only to be dragged back in by Gemma.
"If I have to deal with this bullshit, then so do you!"
Annalise's POV
I stared up into Sebastian's eyes. They were quite breathtaking. But I would never tell him that. His ego was already big enough as it is. But damn... He is beautiful. His jawline could cut someone. I smiled to myself, thinking about his beauty before snapping back into reality.
"Could you maybe let me go?" He smiled and leaned close to my ear.
"Am I making you uncomfortable? Do you need me to make you comfortable?" My face flustered red in anger. I pulled my face close to his ear, my lips grazing his skin.
"I am not a harlot, so don't treat me like one, k?" He dropped me to the ground, but I broke my fall and landed with a quiet thud.
"How did you do that?"
"Do what?" I asked standing up. Ciel looked at me.
"You floated in the air for a moment before you fell." I giggled.
"Oh, just something that runs in my family!" Ciel sorta nodded though he still looked confused.
"So, where t begin?" I filled them in on all eight of us being half demon but left out the whole La Mademoiselle part of things. "So, yeah, that's it." Ciel nodded.
"You certainly some girl for one girl." The three of us remained silent for a moment before bursting into laughter, tears actually poured down our faces. Sebastian and Ciel looked as though we were mad. The clock struck five and Sebastian.
"You two need to help me with dinner if the young master allows." Cie nodded his head, I turned to Chris.
"Why are you here?" He shrugged.
"Just checking on ya."
"Well, we are fine, so, bye..." He waved and disappeared. I giggled. "He is so awkward around people."
"Preach!" Gemma and I followed Sebastian downstairs. We walked into the kitchen and started to prepare dinner. There was a loud creak from the front door and Sebastian went up to check it out. Gemma and I put the dinner on the stove and began to clean up. The door burst open and we both whipped stood a tall caramel coloured man, bandages ran up his right arm. He wore traditional Indian attire, mostly greens. His white hair mostly tied up, a few plaits around his face,his grey eyes stared from Gemma to me.
"New maids?" Sebastian appeared behind him, looking quite pissed off at him. I walked up to this new person and extended my arm.
"Hi! My name is Annalise, but please, Anna or Ann will insist." He shook my head and looked over and Gemma. "That's Gemma, she is not really good with new people. She doesn't mind what you call her."
"Hello, I am Agni, the butler to Prince Soma of India, he is my God!" My eyes widened. I heard a ding and Gemma walked over and took the bubbling pot off the stove and I removed the pie from the oven. I placed an extra plate on the work area.
"I presume your prince will be staying for dinner?" I heard Sebastian sigh.
"Yes, my prince would love that."
"If the young master doesn't kill the boy." I held back a giggle. Sebastian looked at me surprised. I smiled ad placed the food on the plate before handing them to Sebastian. He walked up to the dining room with Angi as Gemma and I tackled the pots. We heard footsteps and Sebastian poked his head through the door. "The prince request to meet the new Phantomhive staff." I sighed and put back the clean pots and followed Sebastian up the stairs, Gemma not far behind me. We walked into the dining room and Gemma and I bowed before standing to the left of Ciel.
"I am Annalise, but please call me Anna or Ann. I'm not one for formalities." I took a step back and Gemma took a step forward.
"I am Gemma, you can't really shorten my name, but please refrain from calling me Gem." She turned and smiled at me, and I smiled back. "That's this one nickname for me." The prince nodded.
"I am prince Soma of India."
"Pleasure to meet you."
"Pleasure is all mine." Ciel sighed.
"Are you both done?" I had to refrain from sticking his fork into his neck.
"Yes, young master." Empathies on the young! Ciel's good eye twitched. The prince and Ciel talked about everything and everything. To be honest, it bored the shite out of me, but Gemma looked quite amused.
"They're like fish!" I looked over at her confused. "The say something then a minute later asks practically the same thing!" She pondered her comment for a moment. "They are like you!" I had to resist the urge to burst out laughing. Dinner finished and Gemma and I collected the plates and cups ad brought them downstairs. The idiot trio sat around the small table, eating their own dinner that we had left out for them. We smiled and cleaned up. Afterwards, we sat and had a pretty god conversation with them.
"Did the young master save you two as well?"
"Sorta, he took us in, but we had a home, it just was... different." The clock struck twelve and I heard Gemma sequel. I slowly looked over at her. "No!" Her smiled grew bigger with happiness. "No! NO!" She opened her mouth only to have it covered by me. I led her out of the room, saying goodnight to the others. I rushed her up the staircase to our room, my hand still firmly over her mouth. I closed the door behind me and turned to face Gemma. She looked as though she was going to explode.
"HAPPY BIRTHDAY!"
"Shhh!" The door creaked open and Sebastian and Ciel stood there.
"It's your birthday?" I groaned and flopped on the bed.
"She hates her birthdays."
"Why?"
"I just do!" The room was greeted with a silence before Sebastian spoke.
"We are going on a request for the queen, would you like to come?" I nodded and practically ran to the wardrobe, I pulled on a pair of black shorts and a black open vest with a white top underneath. I pulled on a white scarf and tied my hair into a messy bun. Gemma walked over and pulled on a pair of white three-quarter lengths and a light blue top with a cream cardigan. We both pulled on our comfy shoes and walked over to the two.
"What, the uniforms are uncomfortable! So, shall we go?"
We walked along the streets of London until we reached the outskirts. We followed through the forest until we reached a large house, well what used to be a large house. Ciel opened his mouth to speak but I beat him to it.
"The Heart family manor. The Heart family, or The Queen's Doves, used to live here till the family disappeared about threes years ago." Ciel looked gobsmacked.
"How did you know..?"
"Because... you are looking at one of the last two remaining heiress' of the heart family. Lady Annalise Ruby Heart." Ciel gasped.
"That means..."
"yes, I was the young girl ho came to your manor to play with you and Lizzie. That was me." I looked down t the ground. I looked back over at the wreck of what was my family home, all the memories that lived in this house, had burned with it. My sister and I were the only two to survive. The last remaining Hearts. "But... that girl is dead. The girl that stands before you is not Lady Annalise. Nor is the one beside known as Lady Gemma Grace Locks. We are not those girls anymore. They died alongside their family's."
So? Watcha think? Lemme know? As always, love you guys ver much!
Goodbye Pixies,
Fairy OUT
