Sorry once again for not updating I was reading other fanfiction, lot's and lots of fanfiction. Also this kept getting deleted. I'll try to update more often.


(Jane)

I woke up to the sounds of light footsteps outside of my door. I had gotten little sleep last night from the constant nightmares that filled my dreams but I was used to it. The person outside my door was clearly Sebastian. No one else could sound that graceful on their feet and be human. There were a few sharp raps on my door and Sebastian spoke loudly as if to wake me up. "Miss Jane it is time to wake up. You have a long day ahead of you." "Shut it Sebastian. You know that I'm already up." I growled because I was never a morning person. "Yes but I must keep up appearances as I assume you will as well. Now get dressed and meet the rest of the staff in the kitchen in 10 minutes. I believe you remember where that is. Your cat is allowed to roam around the manor freely as long as he doesn't cause any trouble." he said in a quieter tone. With that he walked calmly away and I stood up to prepare for the day.

I pulled on the black pants, the maid top that looked identical to Mey-Rin's and a apron that went to my knees, which completed my uniform. I also grabbed my black choker and a chain with a medium sized cross that would hang from my pocket not unlike a pocket-watch. I wasn't wearing the cross for religious reasons, God no, I was wearing it to remind Ciel of his ultimate blasphemy and to irk Sebastian. It also changed into a wicked dagger if I pulled out the bottom part. If I learned anything in my 17 years of danger filled life it was always good to be armed at all times. I pulled my hair into a very messy bun because I could never get my hair into any sort of order before and I wasn't going to try now. I scratched Night on his small head to wake him up and he yawned loudly before stretching. He looked at my quizzically and asked me in a baby voice. "Why are you waking my up so early? I'm sleepy." He then gave me the heart melting sleepy kitten look that had I been anyone else would have let him do whatever he wanted. Being the person who taught these tricks to him I just poked his forehead and told him in a no nonsense tone. "You put me in this mess so you are going to help me. Besides if you do what I ask some fish may be involved..." I trailed off as his eyes started to sparkle in happiness. "Fine." he mumbled in defeat as he jumped into my apron pocket.

I exited my room and walked down the still dim hallway to the kitchen. When I walked in the half asleep servants sitting at a large table bolted up as if electrocuted. Now wide awake in fright at the sight of me they started murmuring more ridiculous theories about what kind of monster I was. I heard ghoul and vampire more than once. I took this time to get a better look at who I would have to work with. I let my gaze briefly rest on the boy with large snakes resting on his shoulders. "Be wary of the snakes." I told Night through our psychic connection in a motherly tone. "I don't want you to become snake food." "Like I would let that happen. You would be completely lost with out me." He replied snidely. "Sure keep telling your self that. I'm not the one who's 5 inches tall." I almost winced when I felt his little claws scratch me in the leg though the apron. "Do that again and I'll make you in charge of watching the demon dog." I whispered almost inaudibly when I thought about the large mutt I sensed roaming around the premises. I bet the brat/young master thought it would be funny for me to discover him myself. It wasn't by the way and I was going to retaliate in my own way. I heard a soft hiss from Night at my threat and chuckled. The servants looked up at me then with wide eyes.

I decided that would be a good time to introduce them to Night. I pulled him out of my pocket much to his protest that he "didn't want to meet the group of clearly stupid humans." At the appearance of Night they started panicking and huddled together again. It would have been amusing if I wasn't so confused as to why they were. I felt Sebastian standing behind me and whispered. "This is what I have to work with? If I didn't dislike you so much I would pity you." All I got was a small chuckle from him. Suddenly the servants separated and Bard, Finny, and Mey-Rin all pointed accusing fingers at me at the same time before shouting "WITCH!" at the top of their lungs.

I could practically hear Sebastian's mental face palm. I didn't really like being called a witch so I gave them what I referred to as the Undertaker smile. They all ran past me and clutched to Sebastian except Snake who had moved to the far corner of the kitchen to avoid me. I had to admit I really liked to see the demon suffer. I had to give the humans credit where credit was due, they did a really good job of annoying Sebastian.

"It seems you've all met Miss Jane again. She will be managing you as well as preforming the normal duties of a maid. I assure you she is not a witch. Now if you'll kindly untangle your selves from me, I can get on with assigning today's chores." They all got off of him because he was using the "overly-perky-murderer" voice. "Mey-Rin you'll be dusting the library, sweeping the ball room, and cleaning the windows. Finny you'll be tending to the garden and trimming the hedges. Bard you'll be preparing lunch and dinner for the servants. Snake tend to the horses and clean the carriage. Tanaka just take it easy. Jane polish the stair rails, scrub every floor in the manor, wash the sheets, dust the library, take the store room's innovatory and manage the other servants. Once you finish with those you can take the remainder of the day off." He looked at me almost smugly because he knew he gave me an impossible work load. The other servants seemed to thinks so to because they were slack jawed and looked back and forth between me and Sebastian waiting for me to protest. Of course I wouldn't do something like that on my first day. I just nodded. "Good well that is all dismissed!" Sebastian ordered with a sharp clap of his hands.

"Wait." my voice rang through the room even if it was quiet. The servants stopped in their tracks. "I would like to talk to Mey-Rin for a minute please." Bard Finny and Snake gave her a worried look but ran off when I looked at them. Even Bard who belonged in the kitchen. I was going to have to deal with him in a minute. "D-do ya need something M-miss?" Mey-Rin stuttered and screeched. It was very annoying and loud. "Yes I wanted to ask you if you can see very well with those glasses. While you were eating I noticed that you missed your plate a lot when you tried to get a bite and that your glasses looked cracked." Her hands reached up and grasped her glasses tightly. "It's no problem at all! The young master gave them to me and I'm very attached to them, yes I am!" "Hm, If you gave them to me for a second I might be able to fix them." I said with a hand out stretched. She jumped back even though we were a good distance away from each other as it was. Was all this fuss was really unnecessary?

"Mey-Rin I promise that your glasses will be returned to you in a second just let me see them. They will not be harmed." I said in the most soothing tone I could manage. She hesitated for a second before handing them to me. I turned around so that I wasn't facing her and cast a clearing and fixing charm on the lenses. Once I was sure that they would work I handed them back to Mey-Rin who looked ready to explode in a panic attack. She put them back on and gasped. "I can see clearly, yes I can!" she shouted as she looked around the room. I gave a quick nod and said "Well now that you can see I hope you attend to you tasks with few mistakes." She bowed repeatedly to me than ran clumsily off while shouting "I'll do my best yes I will!" I cringed at her voice. It was worse than Night scratching on a glass window. With one servant down I had three more to go. I walked outside using the kitchen door and entered the garden where I thought Bard and Finny would be. Bard was sitting on a bench, with his back turned to me, smoking a cigaret while Finny was trimming the hedges.

"Bard you can have your kitchen back now." I informed him and he jumped tree feet in the air. "My Kitchen?" He questioned then seemed to snap out of his disbelief. "Right MY kitchen. Don't worry Jane I'll make the best meal with my newest cooking flamethrower." He said proudly. Flamethrower? I arched an eyebrow at him but he couldn't see it because of my long bangs that covered my eyes. What ever he was planing wasn't good I knew that already. "Night." I called out to him in my head. "Yes?" he asked tiredly from the spot I left him in the kitchen. "I want you to stay there and make sure Bard doesn't use any weapons or explosives. Do want you have to do but don't reveal that your not an average cat. Think you can do that?" "Of course like I said before they're all stupid. All I want in return is a bit of salmon I keep smelling." "Fine just don't get hurt." I warned. "Yeah yeah." he mumbled as he went back to sleep. "Bard." I called grabbing his attention. "My cat Night will be staying in the kitchen for the time being." "but!" I cut him off. "He is a mouser and I noticed that you have a bit of a mouse problem near the food. We can't have that can we?" he was about to protest again but I shut him up by saying "We wouldn't want the Young Lord to get sick now do we?" "No." He admitted before he walked back to the kitchen. I heard him yell "Hey Cat! You better not steal the food ya hear?" I smirked as I thought of all the complaining I would be hearing latter.

"Miss Jane?" Finny's voice tugged me out of my thoughts. "Yes Finny?" I asked as I turned to him. I almost gasped in horror. Some how the hedge had turned into a leafless shrub in a matter of minutes. "What happened?" I asked as nicely as I could but I couldn't stop the acid from seeping out of my voice. He burst into tears and hugged me. He was just a inch shorter than me so the front of my dress was the real victim of his crying. "I'm sorry I didn't mean to. Please don't curse me!" I awkwardly patted him on the back. "I won't. Just try not to do whatever you did to that plant again and leave it alone until I can replace it. Can you attempt to do the other hedges without destroying them?" I questioned softly. He nodded and seemed to bounce back to life. He than ran off without a care in the world. I really hated this job more and more. I entered the manor through the side door and set of to do my own chores.

I walked into the library and thought of my list of chores. Dust the library. That would be easy enough to accomplish. I did a quick cleaning incantation I had learned from a witch some years ago and the dust vanished. With that out of the way I started to visit all the rooms in the manor. It helped me memorize where every room was so that I would know where everything was. Useing the same spell as before I got the second chore, cleaning every floor in the manor, done. Next I went to the stair case. I ran my hand down it and a clean polish shone where ever my hand trailed. I was done with task number three. Now to do the sheets. I actually did them manually because I had nothing better to do. Once they were all in the washing machine I went back to check on the garden. It seemed that Finny was working on the front of the house now so I was able to fix the mangled hedges by using a plant healing spell. I entered the store room and quickly took the inventory. It would have taken hours but I used my great sense of smell to check off all the spices and other ingredients. The only down side to using that method was that I got into a terrible sneezing fit.

Last but not least I went to the final servant of the manor who was working (aka not Tanaka), Snake, to see how he was doing. Knowing the insane manor I all ready had a bad feeling about it. I walked in the stables and found that the place was a circus. The horses were out of their stables fearful and un-groomed and the carriage looked like a mashing machine threw up. "Snake." I sighed and I saw his cowlick behind a bail of hay. He stepped out calmly covered in soap with his snakes on his shoulders. No wonder the horses were scared with those snakes involved. I could make him leave the snakes at the manor but I had the feeling that the horses still wouldn't like him. So time for a little horse charming.

I grabbed one horse gently by his snout and made him look into my eyes. "You will not be afraid of the snakes that are with that boy or the boy himself." I told him mentally. I couldn't use that ability with beings of average intelligence but horses are not the brightest of creatures. Well not when compared to cats. The horse gave a slight nod and instantly calmed down. I did the same to the two other large animals and everything was quiet. I could tell that Snake was a person of few words and wouldn't start the conversation. "Hello snake it's nice to meet you again." I said curious to see who he would reply. "You too." says Goethe. "Sorry about the carriage the bucket slipped." says Wilde. I was not going to comment on the talking snakes. I just wasn't in the mood at all. "It's not the worst thing I've dealt with today. Just clean it up please and groom the horses. They should behave now and would you please tell all your snakes not to eat my kitten. I'm afraid I would have to cut the culprit up into itty bitty pieces to free him." I said as sweetly as I could. He paled which I hadn't thought was possible and his snakes rapped around him protectively. He nodded once and I left to the sound of his snakes hissing at me.

The laundry was done so I hung them up on the cloths line. With all my chores now done and I was sure the servants wouldn't destroy something for the next few hours I decided to take a nap. I lied down against a tree and felt the sun warm my closed eyelids. There's nothing the cat in me likes more than a midday rest.

(Sebastian's POV)

The house was unnaturally quiet and I didn't hear a single explosion or crash all day. It was slightly unnerving. I kind of hopped that they all ate some of Bard cooking and died. That would be greatly amusing but then I would have to replace all of them and that would be an even greater hassle. It was around 11:00 when I decided to check on everything. It had only been five hours since I assigned the chores and I was sure the Jane would be still working. It was my version of payback since the dog mauling incident yesterday. How did she know about that? I never told her and even the most powerful warlocks couldn't read me. Why was it so simple for a Fay to do it. This could be a problem if she told Ciel but she hates him even more than she hates me. She wouldn't help him escape once the contract is fulfilled right? I didn't know her well enough to be sure. I didn't have time to worry about such useless things.

I decided to go to the kitchen first because Bard was the one who usually caused the most damage. As I walked in I heard angry yelling coming from Bard. "Bloody hell Cat stop getting in the way! First you cut the fusses to the dynamite, then you almost get barbequed by getting in the way of my flamethrower, and then you spilled all gun powder that I wanted to use to heat up the oven. Now you won't let me use a grenade to make the mashed potatoes! I don't care if you've caught six mic so far I want you out!" Ah, so Jane put Night on disaster duty. I pitied the cat, what kind of good owner would put their beloved pet into such danger? The logical part of my brain tried to tell me that the only reason I was being so protective of the Familiar was because it was a kitten, my one true weakness. I had to agree with that but it didn't stop me from calmly walking into the room and making Bard stop mid-rant with a grenade raised in the air. "Bard what did I tell you time and time again?" I asked him in a reprimanding tone. He sighed in defeat and lowered the explosive. Night turned around and gave me a glare the didn't match his fluffy face. "Not to use weapons in the kitchen and to only use cooking materials to cook." He recited like a scolded child. Then like always he started his argument. "But you don't understand cooking is an art and art is and explosion!" I pinched the bridge of my nose as I sighed. I questioned who something this stupid could survive and then told him to get back to work.

With that I walked back down the hallway and almost into Mey-Rin. Surprisingly I didn't. "I'm sorry Sebastian I almost didn't see you there, no I didn't!" She spoke. I instantly noticed that her glasses had a trace of magic like the rest of the house did ever since Jane arrived. "Mey-Rin did something happen to your glasses?" I asked suspicious. "How did you notice?" she asked all flustered like she was every time I directly addressed her. "Jane fixed them for me, yes she did! Now I can see perfectly. Isn't that amazing?" "Yes, now please return to your duties." With a clumsy bow she scurried off.

I walked out to the front of the manor to see how Finny was doing. He wasn't destroying anything. That was itself was strange. I walked over to him and commented behind him. "You've been doing a better job than usual today Finny." He spun around with the shears still in hand. If I didn't have demon reflexes I would be headless. "Sorry Sebastian!" He spoke apologetically. "No worries. Is there a reason you are doing so well?" He smiled brightly and chirped "Miss Jane asked me too. She's a really nice witch and didn't curse me even when I destroyed the hedges in the garden!" Of course he would find Jane nice. He chose to see the best in everyone even if their wasn't any. I also noted that he still called her a witch and destroyed the garden's hedges . I would have to attend to that but first... "Do you know where she is now?" "No Sebastian I haven't seen her since this morning." he replied.

I nodded and walked off. I sensed that she wasn't in the manor which meant that she was outside and I felt the silver flowery aura of her soul nearby. I let it lead me to the cloths line nearby. There obscured by the white sheets lied a napping servant with she arms crossed behind her head. How could she be sleeping when she had chores to do! I felt a vein throb on my forehead. I soundlessly walked until I was standing directly in front of her. I knew that she knew that I was there. My thoughts where confirmed when she raised one eyelid halfway up to stair at me lazily. "What are you doing out here?" I asked as nicely as I could but let my darkness flow out of me. It was met by Jane's similar darkness when she mumbled "What does it look like I'm doing?" and closed her eye once. "It looks like you are sleeping one the job which is entirely unacceptable for a Phantomhive servant." I replied dropping the happy act and allowing bits of my true form bleed through my human one. Even the bravest warrior alive would be running at this point. She only gave an angry huff and said "You can stop that now. In Purgatory demon visitors can't assume human disguises so I am used to seeing your kinds true form. It will do you no good to try and imitate me with it." She finished. The whole time she said this with her eyes closed and body relaxed. I knew that of course, most high level demons did but I had hoped still be scared. I felt my brow twitch almost undetectably in irritation but a smug grin spread across her face and I knew she noticed it.

"Is there a reason you are not doing your chores?" I asked knowing that she had been trapped and would be punished for her laziness. "I have completed all my chores and returned the inventory list onto your desk. Now if you'll excuse me I be having my fee time in peace." I wanted nothing more then to rip her to shreds but refrained. "What about your duty of watching the servants?" I asked knowing that managing the servants was a full time job. I saw her eyes flash gold behind her eyelids as she said in rapid succession "Mey-Rin is dusting the library, she is still flustered about your little run in. Bardroy is chopping potatoes and is frustrated at Night. Finny is happily trimming the hedges feeling content. Snake is grooming the horses and is puzzling at why they aren't scared of him. Ciel is currently dozing in his office. Tanaka is drinking tea in the garden, meditating. Your are very mad at me and want to kill me. The only one I can track is that stupid mutt. I can track them and their moods so if one is feeling great distress I know I have a new task to do." She said coolly. It was a pretty good idea part of my mind admitted the main part just felt anger that I couldn't to anything justifiable to her. Then a brilliant idea hit me. "If you'll excuse me I have a Young Lord to awaken." I nodded ever so slightly and once I was sure I was out of her hearing distance I said. "Pluto come." The demon hound was at my side in seconds and I said "Intruder." Instantly the mutt was rocketing toward Jane even more wild thanks to her cat like scent. I turned around and heard and very loud shriek that didn't sound unlike a shocked cat. As I entered the manor doors I looked back at Jane and Pluto and saw that she was crouching high in the tree while Pluto barked loudly below.


So there chapter 9. Once again I am so sorry so not updating. In the next chapter Ciel gets a new errand from the Queen and guess who tagging along? Sorry for and spelling or grammar errors. Tell me if I need to fix anything. Fav or Follow! Peace out.
