I opened the door, entering quietly. "Dawn!" Alice cried. I winced. Now I would be caught. Alice ran towards me, but a man that looked like a butler blocked her. What was she doing here in the first place? "May I ask what are you doing with my sister?" I asked angrily, trying to hide every bit of anxiety I had. "May I ask what are you doing here?" a boy with dark blue hair, wearing an eye patch, said. I just glared. "I was actually here to ask you to help me look for my sister as she was kidnapped, but oh look. I think I foud her. And her kidnappers," The butler chuckled. "We were, ah, just interrogating her. She was a witness of a crime that took place about two hours ago." My sister? At a crime scene? I know she can be stupid, but not that stupid. I always warn her not to get into trouble. I looked at Alice to see what response she gave. Alice didn't say anything, but her eyes told me that they were lying. "But I think she has given you enough information by now? Besides, I heard lots of screaming. That sounded like you two were torturing her," I said pointedly. "She probably didn't even see anything. Just was at the wrong place at the wrong time," I said, grabbing Alice's arm. "No. She stays," the boy said, yanking Alice's arm. "Stop it. I will call the police," I said, anger rising in my voice. Then I realized that he was the police. My cheeks grew hot as I had just sounded like a complete fool.The boy was about to continue, but the butler cut him off. "My apologizes. We thought that she had seen something important. But you were right, she had seen nothing, at lest that is what the grl told us. We will release her. My name is Sebastian," the older man said politely. "Oh ok. Thank you, but we must leave now. Good bye," I said, trying to get out. "Please have some cake first, You will enjoy it. It is the Phantomhive hospitality. Plus, I make the best cake in all of England," I rolled my eyes. Bribing me wasn't going to work. Alice, however, really wanted some cake.
"Can we stay for the cake? Please? I really want some! He makes it sound like heaven! Please, please, please?!" Alice begged quietly in my ear. "Are you crazy? These people kidnapped you! You want to stay? They could kill you!" I hissed in her ear. "Well, I introduced myself, and I know the younger girl is named Alice, but what is your name?" the butler asked. "Sorry, but I don't give out personal information to strangers," I said. Alice whined in my ear "Please? A little bit? I just want cake! I haven't eaten since lunch which was at 11 today! In the morning!" Alice whined. I sighed. "Fine, but we can't say too long," I said loudly. Then I whispered "We will stay near the door in front of the manor, just in case they do anything crazy," Alice seemed fine with the idea and agreed "Ok," she whispered back. "Come downstairs, I will be preparing the cake," Sebastian said. We both went downstairs, and stayed very close to the door.I talked to the red haired lady and found out her name was Mey-rin. She was very nice, but a bit clumsy. She definitely didn't belong here, she is too nice, I thought to myself. Alice kept talking to a boy with blonde hair and a straw hat. His name was Finnian. They seemed to laugh and yell a lot. I tried to distance myself from the two, and continued talking to Mey-rin. We talked about many things, like hair, fashion, life, and jobs. Soon enough, it was time for dinner. I wanted to sit next to Mey-rin, but Alice was really wanting next to Finnian. I think she liked him, but I am not sure. Unfortunately, the boy was sitting next to Finnian, with an empty seat in the middle. Alice was not willing to sit there because she was scared of him, and ran to the other seat next to Finnian. That left one seat left in the room. Which was suppose to be my seat. Mey-rin saved me a seat, but an old man named Tanaka took the seat. I was left with the seat next to the boy, which I had grown to dislike intensely, and Finnian. I walked slowly, dreading the next few minutes and couldn't wait to go come.
