Master of the Manor

"I'm Ciel Phantomhive and the master of this mansion," the boy looks to his butler, "that is Sebastian Michaelis, my butler," Ciel looks back to the girls.

"Do we have the pleasure to stay here?" Ainslie asked.

Ciel looks at his butler then back at the girl's, "Ainslie you should look at it my way, two random people enter my mansion without my consent and now they want me to let them stay at my said mansion. Would you let said person stay; I think not, so my answer is you can stay but you will need to help my butler at keeping it kept."

Ainslie looks at Ciel in bewilderment, gasping at what Ciel implied she do. She does not clean for anyone, how could he think that she would clean. Scarlet looks at her lady, "My lady i'll clean for you if you wish"

Ainslie looks at Scarlet, "No no, if Master Ciel wants me to clean I will clean. I can't let him get the best of me."

Ainslie humphs and looks away from Ciel. "Sebastian take Lady Ainslie and her maid to a spare room"

Scarlet looks at her mistress and says, "miss will we be having separate rooms?"

"How am I to know Scarlet, I've become a maid. Ladies are not maids ever," Ainslie sighs softly.

Sebastian turns to Ainslie, "If you will please follow me"

Ainslie looks at Sebastian and nods. Walking to the door Sebastian opens it and lets the ladies out first. "I will take my leave now master," he bows to Ciel.

"Yes, yes. Do make sure they understand what they are to do."

Sebastian nods and closes the office door. Turning to Ainslie, "You will be sleeping in the maid's quarters, I will introduce you to some of our staff."

With a huff, Ainslie follows Sebastian down the hall back to the foyer of the mansion. There stood three servants lined up at the bottom of the stairs. Ainslie came to the conclusion that these were the young masters other servants, what they did was a mystery to her.

Ainslie couldn't believe what she had gotten herself into, she was downgraded to the likes of a servant, she was going to be sleeping with these..., she didn't have a word to describe these people. It was too great a task for her, she never had to really think about the servants, they were never present when she was near. But now that she, herself, was a maid she was going to learn how to interact with the staff. Once at the bottom of the stairs, she was stopped in front of the three other servants. "These are the other staff of the house, although they deem to be unhelpful with simple tasks."

Sebastian gestures to the tall blond man with a toothpick in his mouth, "This is our cook, Baldroy."

She nods her head to Baldroy. Sebastian then moves on to the redhead girl next to the cook, "This here is our only maid," with a twinkle in his eye, "well not anymore at least, this here is Mey-rin."

Ainslie glares at Sebastian, nonetheless she nods her head to Mey-rin. "It's such an honor to be working with you," Mey-rin said with her heavy accent. Ainslie didn't know what to say so she turned her attention to the last servant, the blonde in the plaid shirt. "Finally we come to Finland."

Finland bows to the girls, "You can call me Finny and i'm the gardener in this household."

Ainslie nods her head to the fellow and then looks back to Sebastian, silently telling him to take her to her room. Sebastian got the silent message, "Well I will now be taking Lady Ainslie to her quarters, back to work and try not to break anything."

With that Sebastian commenced his tour of the mansion. He made it a point to show Ainslie what she would be taking care of. Everytime he showed her another room in her care she stared at him in disbelief. She hoped they knew that she herself would be unable to finish all this cleaning in one day. To be honest, it would take her about 5 days.

By the end of the tour, both Sebastian and Ainslie stopped at the servant's quarters. Once Sebastian departed Ainslie sighed and leaned against the door. "I think that went very well M'lady," Ainslie looks at Scarlet, mildly surprised.

"I believe what you think doesn't matter. Scarlet if you had done your job correctly I wouldn't be downgraded to a maid!" Ainslie glares at Scarlet.

With a swish of her tail, Scarlet curtsies. "My apologies M'lady."

Ainslie waves her hand, dismissing the cat demon. Without another word Ainslie was left to her room. Walking to her new bed, Ainslie drops her body onto the covers of the bed. This all could of been avoided if only she had a smarter servant.

She shakes her head, that wasn't true. Ainslie's bad luck would catch up to her anyways.

Glaring up at the ceiling, Ainslie sits up and jumps off the bed. She slips her gloves off and places them on the nightstand. Holding up her hand in the air, she looked at the symbol branded onto her hand.

This mark was the beginning of Ainslie's misfortune. She glares at the angry scar, cursing it's very existence. She'll get revenge, this is just another one of those mishaps. Another place where she'll run away from.

Bringing her hand down, she starts to undress. The soggy dress finally making her skin cold. Grabbing the discarded dress, she hangs it near the empty fireplace.

Bringing her hands to her arms, she rubs them. The chill giving her goosebumps. Without second thought, Ainslie grabs the key to the fireplace and lights it up. Right away the warmth of the fire wrapping her in a soothing blanket.

She then takes ahold of her underdress, it also was drenched in the rain water. Pulling it off, she was left in only her rappings. Again with the underdress, she places it next to the fireplace. She nods to herself. Turning around, she makes her way to the bed. Unknowingly to Ciel, upon opening the door to Ainslie's door was a very exposed Ainslie.

Bewildered Ciel stands there, dumbfounded for the first time. Ainslie on the other hand knew what to do. With a swing of her hand a pillow came herling at the young Earl, further looking postponed for a short moment.

Grabbing onto the cover of the bed, Ainslie pulls the cover over her body. The humiliation she is facing is so grave. Her face alight she glares at the Earl, "How dare you enter a lady's room without knocking!"

Flabbergast, Ciel opens and closes his mouth, having forgotten the very reason he had come. He just stood there, not knowing what to do. Ainslie grab a hold of the lamp on the nightstand and hurls it towards the Earl. Before it could hit Ciel Sebastian grabs the handle of the lamp, "That isn't very lady like Lady Ainslie."

Ainslie glare at both master and butler. Who did they think they are? She is the master of the Griffin manor and owner of the prized company. All these two have been doing is show her disrespect and downgrade her. She would not have it any longer, with a swipe of her hand she moves her hair away from the curse mark on her collarbone, it glows with the power it has. "Scarlet get me away from here," with that said Scarlet is summoned.

She takes Ainslie in the sheets and grabs the dress by the fire hearth. Within a matter of seconds Ainslie and Scarlet are out of the manor and are back out into the rain. As Scarlet ran with her lady in her arms Ainslie couldn't help but feel regret in the pit of her stomach. As if she has made a grave mistake by leaving that manor.
