Lullay, Black Butler (sebastian michaelis love story) Chapter 11 - His Lady, Tested
Luna's POV
"Lily? *knocks*" Eli. Come home soon.
Elianna's POV (Day 90)
Well...this is it. I just need to survive this night. Then, I'll go home to you. I'm dressed in a long black dress and a black corset and my cloak. I leave my hair down. The moon is high at its peak. I walk out, with Claudia and Katherine, but no sign of Matilda. Madam May is all set, waiting.
"It is time. It is time to crown Supreme."
Luna's POV
"*knocks* Please, I know you're in there. Ciel wonders where you are. He says have courage and fight your fears. I'm right here to help you. Come down stairs and help me celebrate Ciel's birthday. Ciel would appreciate it. Everyone loves you." No answer. I drop to my knees and cried. "LILY! WHY ARE YOU ANGRY! WAH! AHH WAHH!"
"Luna?"
"Huh?" I stop crying and I see the door opening.
Elianna's POV
Madam May placed the last candle on the table top outside. She's on one side of the table while the rest of us on the other side.
"You all are very talented witches. But, for me to see your levels, we are starting from the simplest to the extreme. These first two are the easiest; Telekinesis and Pyrokinesis. Use your mind to bring the candle to you and when you grab it, the candle should light up immediately. Katherine." We watch Katherine as she looks at the candle. She struggled, but the candle responded to her and it slid towards her. She grabs the candle and ten seconds later, it lit. "Claudia." She looks and the candle shook and it went towards her, but it stopped midway.
"UH! What!"
"Claudia?" She focused again and it flew at her and she caught it. And it lit. "You need to work on that Claudia. Elianna." I move my eyes to the candle and it slid to me and when it touched my palm, before I grab the candle, it lit up. "Very good, Elianna." We have made it. Two down; Five to go.
"Concilium...also known as Mind Control. One's will onto another. Claudia and Katherine." They face each other and Claudia's eyes turned blue and Katherine's right hand moves to her hair and pulls it hard.
"Ow! Ow! Ow!" Katherine breaks free and her eyes turn blue and Claudia's left hand moves and pulls her hair.
"Ow! Ow! Ow!"
"~sighs~ Eli?" My eyes turn blue and Claudia and Katherine run to each other and pinch each other's cheeks, both screaming,
"Ow! Ow!"
"Ow! Ow!"
"Ooh. Two for one." Madam May waves her hand and the girls break free from my trance. "Next."
Sebastian's POV
"Happy birthday, Ciel!" says Lizzie. Everyone was celebrating my young Master's birthday. Luna was standing next to me. I turn and see another little girl hiding behind the wall.
"Lady Lily?" My Lord turns and his eyes widen. He smiles and holds his hand out.
"Come here, Lily. This isn't a birthday party without you." She steps forward, wearing a light blue dress that had a white bow in the back. And she runs to my Lord and he hugs her. "There, there. It'll be okay." I smile, knowing Lily has finally left her room. But why is it that she's so mad at Eli? Eli.
Elianna's POV
We walk inside for our next task,
"We have gotten through the easy spells. Now, it's time to put your true strengths to the test. Divination. Extra-sensory awareness." She places small pebbles in a metal cup. "You use your extra senses to find items left behind from past Supremes. Elianna." As she stirs the pebbles in the cup. The house was over 200 years old, so I wouldn't be surprised if there's items left behind. It's just getting the correct ones. Madam May's eyes turn green, "Where is the Victorian Fair Pin that belongs to Supreme Sarah Merrick?" as she pours the pebbles on the table. I place my hands over the pebbles and they feel like they are on fire. I move my hands and they feel cooler, but hot. Oh, I get it. I move my hands over, and about two minutes later, my hands cool down and I'm getting fast flashes, yet blurred, of the room and the exact location.
"Drawing room...right in a secret compartment behind the dress closet."
We go up to the Drawing room, which is old and abandoned. Mold and cracks are on the wall, along with spiderwebs. I move the dresser and I see a small opening. I open up the compartment and there it was. I pull the pin out, which was Opal and had four small dangling hearts. I hand it to Madam May, but she raised her hand.
"No. Keep it. Sarah would appreciate that you found it." I placed it on my buttoned shirt, right over my right breast. "Well done, Elianna." I'm so glad I went first.
It was Claudia's turn and her object was to find a small wooden jewelry box belonging to Rebecca Dike. She took quite some time, but she was able to get the right answer; an old guest room and it was sitting on top of a small bed dresser.
Last, Katherine; she was to find a wired brush belonging to Judith Varleth. The pebbles were spilled. Many moments passed, and Katherine started to hesitate.
"It's...it's right there! In the vase." Madam May went over to the vase,
"I'm sorry, Katherine." She puts her head down into shame. "There's nothing to be ashamed of, Katherine. You tried your best. And your will power wouldn't let you go farther. In the end, you are still are a Witch of Herbs." She nods her head. It's now Claudia and I. I need to stay on top of this. Their lives are on my shoulders.
Sebastian's POV
The party has ended; Lizzie and her maid, Paula, went home and everyone was asleep. I open the door to Elianna's room, hoping she would be in there. But, as expected, she's not. Times I wished she would at least sit on her chair by her dresser, this way I knew she was alive. Tonight is the night she will be tested to be Ultimate Supreme. Elianna, I may not express human emotions of love to you. But, if you want me to treat you as to care for you as you are a fragile heart, than I shall. I have times I just want to leave here and watch you study, but I cannot afford you to be distracted. And me losing control.
Elianna's POV
Three to go. Hold on, babies. I'm almost there. Madam May says, holding a bow and arrow,
"Well done. We have three more tests left. May God watch over you and guide you. Next test is a strength of control of your speed. Transmutation, also known as Teleportation. I will shoot this arrow and once it lands, you two use that power to head to the deep part of the woods to find the arrow. And I will give you the word to take off." She aims her arrow to the sky and few moments later, she shoots her arrow and it goes to the air and it starts to fall.
"Now?"
"Not yet, Claudia." After it falls and it disappears in the trees, "Now."
We both take off at the speed of light, avoiding any dangerous obstacles in my path. My body feels so light, I could be distracted by the feeling of no gravity. But, I must find this arrow! I use my Vision Path; which will allow me to follow the path made by the arrow. After what seems like a minute, I was able to find the arrow lodged in the tree...pinned to the tree by the heart...CLAUDIA!
