Okayyyyy so before you guys go on and read, I kind of wanna point something out.

You know that picture there? The one of the girl that shows up when you open the story? Yeah. That's what Imogen looks like. Ok, that's all.

CHAPTER 11

"Miss Imogen, time to get up, the tailor is soon to be here," Sebastian lightly shook the sleeping girl. Imogen frowned, her eyes still closed, "I don't wanna get up..." she mumbled, and Sebastian sighed, "Miss..." he said, his voice was stern, Imogen only turned her back to him, snuggling further into the pillow, "Imogen," Sebastian said.

Her eyes shot open, and she sat up quickly, the was he said her name was terrifying. Almost like a threat.

"I'm up! I'm up!" she said, and threw the sheets off herself, swinging her legs over the pillow, Sebastian handed her a tea cup, she then noticed something, "Hey Sebastian, ever since I've been staying here you've been serving me tea in the morning, why is that?" Imogen asked, it was a stupid question, no doubt, but when Imogen's curiosity is picked at in the littlest in any way, she HAS to know what, when, who, and why right away.

Sebastian tilted his head, and gave her a look that said 'why on earth are you even asking me that?' and he sighed, "Well, the Young Master has morning tea, and he has ordered me to cater to you as I would the Young Master..." he said, and Imogen nodded, she sipped her tea, it was sweet and it warmed her stomach.

Sebastian gazed at her thin form, he couldn't help but think that if a breeze blew, and if it was strong enough, she would end up being blown away with it. She was so thin, it HAD to be unhealthy, but she ate as much as everyone else in the manor... well... everyone but him...

He watched as the girl lifted the cup to her lips and saw her sigh, closing her eyes, Sebastian sucked in a breath, and held it in. Now that she was out of bed, and sitting upright, the air around them was now flooded with her human scent. He furrowed a brow, sensing something else suddenly. He narrowed his eyes, and sniffed the air again, there was definitely her human scent in the air, it was sweet and sugary, like licking a raw sugar cane. But then, there was something else hidden underneath it... something deep and drowning...

Sebastian took in another breath, he could taste it...

"Sebastian, did you say a tailor was coming?" Imogen asked, and Sebastian pulled out of his pondering thoughts to look at the girl, who was now currently blinking at him. She always seemed to do that when she's thinking, or curious... or surprised... actually, she did it often whatever it was she was feeling.

"Yes, Miss Imogen, Nina is her name I believe..." ( A/N: I think... I actually really don't remember...) Sebastian said, and took the empty tea cup from her, walking over to her closet, he pulled out a blue dress, and put it down on the bed, she got up, and looked at the dress, and then Sebastian.

"What's on you're mind, Miss Imogen?" Sebastian asked, furrowing his brows, she bit her bottom lip and swung back on her heels, sighing loudly, "Is it really necessary for you to bathe me, dress me, and all that stuff?" Imogen asked, and Sebastian smirked at her slightly, "Well, the Young Master did-"

"Never mind. I get it," Imogen said, putting a hand up to stop him, she put both her arms up and felt the fabric being quickly lifted over her head, and skirts being pulled down over her, and a corset being wrapped around her torso. Even though she had a corset on, she honestly couldn't get any thinner than what she already was.

This was rather a concern for Sebastian. Ciel was about the same size as Imogen, thin arms, and legs, small torso, and childish features on their face. Letting out a sigh, Imogen put her arms down, squirming a little in her clothes.

"I will never get used to this feeling..." she said, and frowned, Sebastian only nodded, and smiled at her.

"Right, now, if you would please..." Sebastian opened the door to her room, and she walked pass him, her scent rushing up into his nostrils once again, he had to cover his mouth and nose to stop himself from sniffing the air again.

It was intoxicating.

"Oh my, what a lovely kitten you have, such a cute little doll you have Earl Phantomhive, she's almost as pretty as you, oh look at her small frame, and her eyes... such a strange color, but contrasts so well with her innocent little face, oh she's just like a small little animal, tell me Phantomhive, where have you picked up such a cute little creature?" the lady, who was Nina squealed in delight, cooing and holding Imogen's face in her hands, cupping her cheeks, and pinching them slightly, Imogen blinked at her, trying her best to not give the lady the death glare.

She did not enjoy being touched and pinched so familiarly by a stranger...

"None of your concern Nina, please just do what I've asked of you, I want this done as quickly as possible alright?" Ciel said, avoiding Nina's crushing arms that would've pulled him into a hug, had Imogen not been there. "Tut tut, Phantomhive..." Nina pouted, but quickly grinned at Imogen, who was stiff and was biting her lip. Sebastian cleared his throat from the other side of the room, startling everyone (much to his amusement, may I add) "Miss Nina... please prepare five dresses for Miss Imogen here, and one maids dress, seeing as the Young Master and I have decided that she will be working here from now on," Sebastain said, and Nina frowned at him, "Oi, see you've come out Mr. Stiff, fine, what ever you say," Nina said, and Imogen blinked at Sebastian.

She had no idea that she will be working here... as a maid of all things. She didn't really mind though, so she only nodded at Sebastian, who bent his chin down in acknowledgment. "Now, time for measurements, Mr. Stiff, Phantomhive, out!" she said, waving her arms, and pushing them out the door, she turned to Imogen, grinning, almost evilly.

'oh god... HAVE MERCY ON MY POOR HELPLESS SOUL'

Imogen felt as if she was asking for mercy all too often lately...

"NO!" Imogen yelled, Nina gripping on her corset tightly, trying to yank it off her.

'I already had one person see me naked, I don't need another on the list' Imogen thought bitterly in her head.

"B-But I need measurements," Nina retaliated, whipping her around to face her, her super human strength allowed her to rip the corset in two. "AHHH!" Imogen squealed, "I'm naked!" she yelped, and covered her chest with her hands, "Tut Tut, child, there's no reason for you to be so ridgid, I think Mr. Stiff is getting to you, say why don't you come and live with me at my store, I'll dress you up, and make you look pretty!" Nina said, and wrapped the tape around Imogen's chest, somehow managing prying off her hands, "B-But I-I-I don't wanna-" "HUSH!" Nina said.

Once she was done measuring Imogen's body, she was allowed to get dressed again, she put everything on (except the corset) and stepped out, her hair disheveled, and her eyes were slightly glazed over.

"I-Imogen?" Ciel stuttered, seeing the disheveled girl.

"Ciel! She's a monster, an absolute inhuman being, she has the strength of... of..." she looked around untill her eyes landed on Sebastian, who was staring at her, his eyebrows up and his face blank, blinked when she pointed at him, "YOU!" she said, Sebastian smirked, "Ahh, well, we'll have to see about that, Miss Imogen," he said, smiling.

Imogen cocked an eyebrow in the air and then smirked, she looked at Ciel, "Hey, wanna play a game to pass the time, Ciel?" Imogen asked, she ran over to a table, and patted the seat next to her, Ciel followed, a bored expression on his face, but his interest was quite piqued not that this girl mentioned a game...

"What are we playing?" Ciel asked, sitting down, she held out her hand to him, her thumb up, "Thumb War!" she grinned, and Ciel furrowed his brows, "What?" he said, and Imogen blinked at him, "Ahh, I forgot, okay... you don't know what an arm wresting contest is either, do you?" Imogen asked, Ciel shook his head, and Imogen sighed, "Okay, well just do what I tell you to," Imogen said, she stuck out her hand like how she did before, her fingers curved a bit to cup Ciel's own fingers, "Okay, put your hand in mine the same way," she said, their hands held together, she gripped his tighter, "Okay, now what you do is try to get my thumb down with yours..." she said, Ciel nodded, quickly catching Imogen's thumb and holding it down, "Great, now since you know how to play, I wont go easy on you," she said, an evil glint in her eyes, she smiled and Ciel's eyes widened, "I'm not so sure ab-"

"One two three four, I declare thumb war!" Imogen had already started aiming for Ciel's thumb who darted out of the way, their thumbs were moving about randomly, one trying to get away, while the other was diving in mercilessly.

Sebastian had to turn around to keep from them seeing him laughing, he let out a snort before turning around, seeing Imogen and Ciel both standing up, a determined look on their faces, their heads butting together.

"I'm not letting you win," Ciel muttered, and Imogen snickered, "Nor I, you," she said, finally catching Ciel's thumb, and pressing it down between them, "Wha- how did that-"

"TIME FOR FITTING!" Nina's voice shouted from inside the room, Imogen jumped up, and let go of Ciel's hand, scurrying along quickly, and disappearing into the room.

"Looks like a perfect little porcelain doll don't she?" Nina cooed. Imogen looked at herself in the mirror, and smiled slightly. She wasn't fond of many dresses, but she had to admit, she enjoyed how the maid's uniform looked on her thin frame.

The uniform was like Mey Rin's, but it was looser, and the apron wrapped around, covering her chest and was tied in a big bow in the back, the actual dress itself was long sleeved, the cuffs were big and loose, and the Phantomhive crest were used at cufflinks, the collar of the dress was big enough to over her neck, and went down to the middle, where the front was tied with a loose, red ribbon. The dress was a dark grey color, a little bit dark and a sad color, but then again, she was now working for a twelve year old boy who's last name was "Phantomhive"...

'Not many bright things ahead I'm sure' Imogen thought, and giggled to herself. She looked down at her feet, where white knee high lace up boots were on her feet. The heels on them making her taller by a few inches. "It looks good," Sebastian said, admiring the girl, watching her twirl around, making the dress sway. Despite it being rather loose, it accented her waist, making her look more curvy, but it still made her look like a little girl (which she is) it made her look much more innocent, which to what Sebastian assumed, she wasn't.

"OF COURSE IT LOOKS GOOD!" Nina yelled, and slapped Sebastian's back. Hard. So hard he actually coughed, "Aha, yes of course, how could I doubt, how much will that be, Miss Ni-" "Nothing! This precious little girl could not be put a price on!" Nina said, hugging Imogen from behind, her eyes widened when Nina's hands lifted part of the dress, revealing a garter and buckle holding up her socks, Imogen whimpered, "Ehh?" "Please, do let me know when this strap in particular... comes in handy," Nina said, looping her fingers around the garter, Imogen's eyes widened, and death glared at Nina, who in turn ignored the warning. Ciel paled, and Sebastian sweat dropped, quickly grabbing Imogen, and holding the girl by the shoulders, she shivered at the feeling of someone's hands on her thigh.

"Please, keep your hands to yourselves..." Sebastian said, smiling a closed eyed smile.

Nina frowned, "Oi, Mr. Stiff, you have your own hands on her don't you?" Nina said, and Sebastian smiled wider, "Yes, but this is different," Sebastian said, "How so?" Nina challenged, "I've seen her-"

"ENOUGH!" Imogen clasped a hand over Sebastian's mouth, giving him another death glare, his eyes widened at the terrifying look. He took her hand off his mouth, and nodded slightly, "Anyway, all that aside, I can't really agree with a red bow in front..." Sebastian said, picking at the little red sting that was tied to the collar, Nina huffed, "Oh? Why's that?" Nina said, crossing her arms, "Like my Young Master, red seems to be a little gaudy on children, she's short as it is, the color will only make her seem more childish..." "WHATS SO WRONG WITH BEING SHORT?!" Imogen stammered, crossing her arms and pouting. Sebastian promptly ignored her, "I would think that a blue ribbon would suit her much better," Sebastian said, Nina glared at the butler, "And? Youths under 15 are my only interest!" Nina said, hugging Imogen. Imogen stiffened, still not used to being touched by anyone other than Sebastian, and even when changing his hands made little contact to her skin.

"I do not care what you're hobbies are in your free time..." Sebastian said, deadpanning.

Imogen glanced at Nina, who was hugging her furiously. Imogen sighed and pried Nina's arms from around her, Imogen nodded, "Well, I guess it would be a bit different if the whole dress itself was red... but I guess this ribbon doesn't bother me... but it's just this one red ribbon that seems a little out of place, why don't we put some red bows somewhere to even it out?" she said, glancing at Ciel who shrugged, not caring, and then looked at Sebastian who seemed thoughtful, he then put a hand in his pocket, and pulled it out, "How a bout we tie your hair with these, Miss Imogen?" Sebastian said, taking out two small little hair ribbons, both a startling bright red. Imogen nodded, she had two braids hanging in front of her shoulders, and they weren't tied at the ends. Sebastian took one of the braids in his hands, and started to tie the ribbons expertly into a bow. He glanced at her, seeing her eyes were watching his hands, her scent rushed to his nose again, and he could hear her loud, but steady heart beat.

He leaned back when he was done, Nina rolled her eyes, and turned the girl around, examining her, "Ohhhh she's just adorable no matter what," Nina said, smiling brightly.

Ciel sighed, and motioned for his butler to follow him, they stepped out of the room unnoticed. Ciel sat down in the chair he was sitting in before, a fist on his cheek, he looked at Sebastian, with little interest, "Well, Sebastian?"

Sebastian sighed, and closed his eyes, "She's human." he said, and looked down at Ciel, his eyes glowing pink this time when he opened them, "For the most part, at least..." he said, and Ciel furrowed a brow, "Elaborate," he said.

"Well, her scent is rather strong, much stronger than that of a regular human's, but that could have to do with a number of things, but she also smells... rather... different, like there is a scent underneath the scent..." Sebastian said, furrowing his own brow, his eyes no longer pink, but changed back to red, "From what I've observed... she has had trauma, she wont disclose what exactly however... but yesterday morning her behavior was rather strange... and also last night, when I went to go prepare her for bed..." Sebastian said, sighing. Ciel straightened up, eyeing his butler carefully, "And?" he pressed, Sebastian shook his head, "She seems to be battling with herself, physically and mentally, her body... it seems that it is rejecting her, almost... in a way it's really quite fascinating, such a 'human' can press themselves to such lengths." Sebastian said. "What? That makes no sense..." Ciel said, frowning, Sebastian shook his head again, "It seems she has had a nightmare the day before, when she woke up she had welts and bruises all over her body, this was obviously not her doing, and I did not sense another presence in the house last night either... her room was completely empty except for her and myself as well." Sebastian stated. Ciel's eyes widened slightly, and he frowned some more.

"She's battling with herself?" Ciel sighed, and ran a hand through his hair, "So, I suppose her coming from another time wasn't a lie..." he said, and closed his eyes, "But her possibly being mentally impaired... Sebastian?" Ciel looked at his butler, who shook his head, "No, there is no possibility, she is perfectly fine," he said, Ciel nodded. "Fine then. My orders remain, continue to observe her behavior for one month, while she is working here, you will no longer have to cater to here either, since she is now a maid. Oh, and Sebastian, tomorrow, we will be paying a visit to the London house, so bring her along..." Ciel said, and got up when the door opened, Imogen walking out, disheveled again, back in her old dress, Nina following, a mischievous smirk on her face. Sebastian nodded, and bowed.

"Yes, my Lord."
