A/N: Here comes chapter 11. I realised I did a huge time skip during the last chapter so now I will lengthen this chapter. Enjoy (and I still don't own Black Butler!)
11. His Butler, However you please…and following orders
(Emily's POV)
I walked down the stairs behind my brother and butler to the main staircase and I sighed. I couldn't understand why people didn't understand…I wasn't hungry and I didn't want to eat. Sebastian had warned me of the danger of not eating but I couldn't care. If I wasn't hungry then I had no need to eat but he still was trying to make me eat. I lowered my head and that's when Sebastian spoke up saying "My Lord tomorrow is yours and Lady Emily's birthday and it appears there are people who wish to celebrate with you." I looked at the three servants hiding behind a marble pillar and sighed. That night was the night my mother and father were killed and I couldn't simply celebrate it like normal. I went to walk away when I heard the door open and I looked around to find Lizzy and Alois entering. I groaned and turned on my heel, I didn't want to be here right now. Then I felt a kick in my stomach and I dropped to the floor. But it wasn't from the outside.
I clenched my body close and all I simply wanted was to faint. I could feel something rising in my throat so I ran to the bathroom as fast as I could. What was happening to me? I reached the bathroom and ran in. Thank god nobody was in there so I locked the door, and that's when it happened I began to be sick. After ten minutes of being sick a knock came at the door and a voice called "Lady Emily? Are you alright in there?" I turned; oh no Sebastian had followed me. I lifted up and shouted "Yes Sebastian, just a little nauseous that's all. Please don't worry I will be fine in a moment!" He sighed and said "Call if you need me, my lady." I simply shouted yes and then he left. I sighed and stood up. I couldn't possibly be pregnant…could I? But then again it could be possible because Alois and Claude…wait was this thing human? I walked out into the hallway and back to where I found our guests but Alois looked at me strange and then I looked at Claude and the kick came again. And once again I fell but this time Sebastian caught me and said "My lady? What happened? Is everything alright?" I nodded and tried to push myself up but was having some trouble. I whispered "Sebastian, I am going back to my room. I will be out later I promise." He nodded and I walked back to my room. "Wait don't you want to know what my present is?" I turned to Alois and Sebastian replied "I'm afraid the lady has suddenly taken ill but she will look later." I walked away and into my bedroom where it was quiet.
(Sebastian's POV)
I closed the door to Emily's room and sighed, what was wrong with her? I walked down the hallway to Ciel's study when I was stopped by my brother and he smiled "Well, she has all the signs of a pregnancy. You know what will happen if it is a demon baby…don't you?" I looked at my brother and pinned him to the wall. "This is your fault! If you hadn't have done…that, then she would be fine!" He looked at me and said "But it could be human." I released him. I had to find out quickly before "it" was born. But who would know what it was.
"I actually have a medical degree but decided to become a blood red reaper instead, how fun eh Bassy?"
I cringed and sighed. Grell was my only option and now I had to call a favour from him. I ran to the phone and called the Grim Reaper office. "Hello, Grim Reaper office, are you demon or angel?" I sighed "Demon, Sebastian Michaelis." The girl stuttered. I was well known and now I would get my questions answered. "May I ask who you want Prince Michaelis?" I laughed, I hadn't been called prince in years and now it was strange to hear it again. "I need to know where Grell Sutcliffe is." She mumbled a few names and then replied "Grell is in London at this present moment. Should I tell him you need him?" I laughed and said "Please, tell him it is urgent." And then I hung up. Now I would be able to help my mistress. I walked back to her room and knocked.
No reply.
I knocked again and still no reply so I walked in to find the bedroom empty but in its place was a note saying
To the demon butler of the house,
I thought to myself I would take a gift to my master so I will build her up with Silver and Gold and make her pretty. She will make the perfect doll.
Then I heard Ciel call. Not now, but I still went and when I entered he looked panicked so I questioned "Young Master? May I ask what the problem is?" He looked down and said "Elizabeth went missing from her carriage in Islington and it may connect to our current case. I need you to…Wait what is wrong with you?" I looked away and replied "Your sister is missing too and there is a danger she might not survive the night." He looked at me and I sighed and said "She might be pregnant my lord and I don't know if it is human or something else." Oh shit…did I just say that? He looked at me and said "Something else?" but as I opened my mouth he said "Question everyone who knew these girls, I have to make a trip to Islington." I bowed and looked away. I was more concerned with Emily's safety and then I thought…why hasn't she summoned me yet. Surely she knows what to do. Maybe it was already too late.
(Emily's POV)
I woke chained to a wall with my arms stretched and I heard a humming in my ear. I turned to find a strange man dressed in what appeared to be a circus outfit and he was humming London Bridge. Why was that song so addictive? He turned his head and chimed "I see the present is awake. Sorry for this but you are perfect." I felt another kick and I clenched my eyes shut. This was murder and the fact that I was here was even worse. I went to speak but found that my voice had gone. What had happened to me? I started to cry and that's when I heard his voice saying "Oh don't cry, it won't take long I promise. Now I just need to make a small cut to pour your lovely substance into you. Once done I will leave you alone." I closed my eyes. Why wasn't Sebastian here yet? I needed him and he wasn't here. Then the man left and I sighed inwards…I wanted to go home. I looked at the pot on the fire and saw that something was bubbling. That was probably the mixture that would soon fill me. I closed my eyes as a tear drop fell. This was my end and Sebastian wasn't here to help me.
As the man entered I noticed that he held another girl in his arms and I gasped…It was Lizzy's coat and the blonde locks were distinctive. Not her, not her. I started to rattle about when the man came close to me and said "Now, Now don't you worry you will soon forget her and who she is." I looked petrified…this couldn't be the way I was going to die. I closed my eyes and I could feel everything slip away. Then the man dropped the ladle and said "The final party has arrived, I will see you soon my darling." I flinched and then he left. I looked over and saw Lizzy was unconscious and not moving, what was I to do? I could hear the song of London Bridge and something about it made me feel relieved. But I couldn't listen to it.
Iron and steel will bend and bow,
Bend and bow,
Bend and bow,
Iron and steel will bend and bow…my fair lady
I snapped my head up and smiled Sebastian was finally here, and solving the problem. I closed my eyes and hoped he would sense me;
Silver and gold will be stolen away,
Stolen away,
Stolen away,
Silver and gold will stolen away my fair lady…
I looked away and towards the window hoping to see my butler…but he never came. Then the door opened and the man form before entered and smiled "Now it's time we made you." I tried to scream but nothing crossed my lips. He grabbed a tube and began to feed it down my open mouth. This was my end. I could feel the liquid go down my throat and it burn the inside of the once delicate passage. I was going to die…
(Ciel's POV)
"Sebastian stop mocking me and help me save Lizzy and Emily!" he looked at me and said "I can only save one my lord so now you must choose…you fiancé or your twin? Which one do you love more?" I looked down. I could never answer him. I loved them both equally and could never pick. I breathed in and he sat on the window sill and said "So you lost your parents, your pride, your hope and now you stand to lose Lady Elizabeth and your own sister, maybe I shouldn't have saved you…but I was just following orders." I looked at him with pure anger in my eyes "Stop it! Take that back!" he smiled and said "Take what back?" I looked at him and knew I had to choose. "Save Lizzy…I can never find a girl like her again." He looked out of the window and said "But you would rather lose someone who has been there for you all your life?" I looked away and all of the times I have been with Emily came flooding back.
"Little brother"
"Brother come on"
"Ciel…are you coming?"
"Come on slow coach"
"Brother I never meant to hurt you."
"Please forgive me Ciel…"
"I will love you no matter what…so long as you know that I live my own life."
"Degree of relation doesn't matter to me; I will kill you if needed."
"Thank you for understanding."
Then her face flashed into my mind…Was I really prepared to let her go? I looked at Sebastian and I could see the desire in his eyes. She was born by my side and she had always stayed there. There was never a time where I was seen without her. Then I looked into Sebastian's eyes and saw that he was doing whatever he pleased but following the orders that were given to him. Why would he listen to me? Emily was the original contact holder.
I turned away from him and he said "I need a definite answer my lord." I turned and said to him "Why do you class me as your lord? Emily is the original contract holder?" He looked at me and smiled softly "I was told to treat you in the same respect I would her…she demanded that and I simply obeyed." I looked stunned…she wouldn't be in harm's way if I had simply allowed her to go away from that place without me. I closed my eyes and said…
A/N: So guys how nerve racking huh? So who will Ciel choose? Sorry I couldn't add in Alois contraption but that will come after this little bit of next chapter I promise. Thank you all for this and I will try to update soon XD I am trying!
