Chapter 2
Sebastian found the place his master described fairly quickly. Which isn't surprising. Soon enough he found himself walking down a very dimly lit corridor with cells on either side after quickly disposing of anyone who tried to stop him. He caught sight of a man standing guard outside of the last cell on the right side of the corridor. The guard did not hear Sebastian until he was only feet away. Before the man had time to even yell, Sebastian had already thrown a dinner knife into the man's skull.
He then peered into the small cell, his breath catching slightly when he caught sight of what looked like a woman sitting in the corner. From what he could make out, the woman was very pale with new and fading bruises here and there with dull looking black hair that looked similar to Ciel's but without life. She was sitting with her head resting against the hard, stone wall, her hair falling in front of her face. She was wrapped up in a very dirty white sheet, but Sebastian could find no clothing to speak of.
He broke the lock off the door causing it to open with a loud squeak. The sound caused the girl to stir and look in the direction of the door. He could see her face now. Her face was just as pale as the rest of her body, her eyes a dull looking blue, but Sebastian knew once she had proper nourishment and care that they would be the same bright blue as his master's. All in all, and despite her obvious signs of abuse and neglect, she was probably the most beautiful thing he'd seen in his long life, and that's saying something.
He started to walk over to her slowly, as to not scare her. Her eyes following his every move as he approached her. Once he was close enough, he kneeled down in front of her and moved a stray strand of hair out of her face to get a better look at her. She moved one of her hands out from under the sheet she was covered with and rose it up to pin of the Phantomhive insignia on Sebastian's coat jacket and said, "Phantomhive..." very quietly to herself. With that, Sebastian snapped out of whatever daze he was in and gave the women a polite smile and bowed his head.
"That's right, my lady. I am Sebastian Michaelis, head butler of the Phantomhive household. My master requested that I retrieve you and bring you back to the manor. Now, what is your name, my lady?"
"Raven...Raven Phantomhive."
"It is an honor to meet you, my lady." Sebastian said as he helped Raven to her feet. Once she was standing, she used one hand to hold up the sheet and the other to rub one of her blue eyes. He took note of her height, she only came to his chest. He took the hand that wasn't holding the sheet and brought it up to his lips. "It's very nice to meet you too, Mister Sebastian." Raven said as he placed her hand back down. Sebastian's smile grew slightly.
"Now that we have introduced ourselves, would you like to depart, my lady?"
"Okay.."
Sebastian then picked Raven up bridal-style and quickly made his way back to the Phantomhive Estate.
