I do not own Kuroshitsuji.

Previously:

"I am you."

Lexi could imagine her devilish smile, her greyish-blue eyes filled with mystery and malicious envy, her skin as pale as sorcery and with brown hair as soft as soft can be.

Now: Lexi's POV

"AH!" I gasped sharply as I woke up. I was in cold sweat, shivering. Even though I was warm, the dream I had last night was terrible! A woman who called herself 'Envy, the Queen of The Underworld' told be that she was a part of me- a 13 year old girl!

I looked at the window. It was definitely morning, judging from how the sun is shining through the curtains.

I yawned and slithered back into my bed.

That is, until I remembered I was working as a maid.

I groaned, sitting up and shaking my head from left to right. Why did I have to be a maid working for a manly-man-man-rapist and a snob?

I got out of bed, my feet feeling numb and my hands feeling as if it were struck by lightning. I walked off to my wardrobe and opened it, being careful. To be honest, I was waiting for Rui to come through the door to give me a lecture, but after remembering everything, the want seemed to fade away.

I stared blankly at my wardrobe. My maid dress was there.
Then it hit me.
Hard.

I jumped back and stared at the clothes I was currently wearing, looking at them in pure horror.

I was wearing a soft, white button-up, long sleeved shirt and silk-like white pajamas.

Someone had changed me. Someone had seen me. Someone has seen... me..!
I shivered, hugging myself. I gasped. Maybe they saw my birthmark! And maybe-

I froze.

My necklace... Where was it?

I started grabbing at my neck, pulling down to desperately try to locate my silver beaded necklace with a pendant hanging down on it. I choked when I realized it wasn't there.

I ran to the bedside table and furiously slammed open and closed the drawers in an attempt to find my necklace, however, those attempts were vain. I had scattered all the contents of the drawers only to find piles of lame books and random papers. I growled and shoved them back in where they'd belonged.

And stood up and ran for the door, dodging my and Rui's humungous beds along the way. My feet were feeling cold against the wooden floorboards as I ran across the room.

What did that pendant have?

It had, neatly tucked inside, a picture of me and her.
A picture of me and Elyse.

I grabbed the door knob, clicked the little thumb-shaped lever and pushed.

I was greeted by the sweet smell of breakfast, however, I was far too desperate to find my necklace to care for my stomach.

I ran down the long hallways of the Phantomhive mansion, the rugs firmly placed warming my feet as I ran.

I made a sharp left and made my way upstairs to Ciel's Office.
The thumps of hard wood against my feet made me feel like an ogre. I smiled slightly at the thought of me being Shrek going upstairs in a mansion.

When I arrived to the top, I skidded and once again, ran to my left. I stared at the doors of Ciel's office, hesitating for a brief moment before mustering all my courage and charging through the white double doors.

When I opened it, I groaned.

Empty. Nobody was there. There was absolutely no Ciel to be found.
If he isn't here, then he must be in his bed room, I decided quickly before rushing away, hearing the doors close gently behind me.

"Up so early?" A yawn rang through me ears.

"Yes." I responded quietly, realizing it was Envy talking.

"Hmmm..." she hummed as I ran down the hallway.

Damn these long hallways!

"Indeed." Envy said sheepishly.

My eye twitched at her response. I sighed and looked at the door beside me.

"He's there. Wake him up. Yell at him. Scream at him. Moan his name." Envy began rambling about how I should wake him up.

I blushed at the last one thinking how messed up I thought she was, clenching my teeth before opening the door wide open. I was thankful for the well-oiled hinges of his door.

"WAKE HIM UP!"Envy yelled in excitement, ready to see his reaction.

'Shut up!' I responded telepathically.

I stepped in carefully, closing the door behind me.

I blinked. His room...
It smelt like...
Vanilla? Just like her...

I shook my head, ignoring my own thoughts.
I looked around, taking note that his room was very dark due to the curtains. Not to mention the things in there were darkly colored too... They were all black, navy blue, normal blue or grey.

He has an obsession for blue things, I judged.

My eyes glazed over to a figure on the bed. He was turned onto his side, facing the windows.

My eyes caught a familiar item as I looked over his desk placed beside his bed.
It was my necklace.

I bit my tongue and tiptoed my way to his bed.
Envy seemed to stay silent as if she were nervous.
I froze still when I heard a groan and the sounds of shifting.

My face decolored.

Ciel was facing me, his eyes closed, sleeping peacefully.
Either way, I felt nervous.

I frowned, pursing my lips. I tiptoed to his desk and snatched my necklace.
I shrieked as I felt a warm hand grab my right arm as a snatched my necklace.

It was only a matter of moments before I was pulled down by someone strong.
"I have you now, Wolfgang." a slightly husky voice whispered into my ear as I closed my eyes shut.

I pursed my lips.
"Unhand me, Phantomhive!" I ordered him, opening my eyes.

"You can't tell me what to do!" he growled, his grip tightening. Suddenly, I visioned him as an Alpha Wolf, leading his pack.

I shut my eyes tightly, trying to gain some of my strength.

"Actually," he paused, gently taking the necklace I clutched with all my life with ease,"if you tell me who this girl is, then I will let you go." he smirked.

My eyes snapped open as I hissed in annoyance, my eyebrows furrowing. "Why should I? And if I do tell you, you'll be the first one to know... I haven't even told Rui..." I trailed off, feeling a wave of sadness come through me.

"Well, do you want to get out of this mess," he leaned forward, his face inches from mine, I guess to put up a more intimidating look,"or not?".

"I-I..." I hesitated. I could lie and tell him that's my cousin, or tell him the truth.

"Don't go so low for someone already dead, sweetie", Envy whispered darkly,"just tell him. Telling one little bird so secretive as him won't hurt, hm?".

Just like that, as if she has said some sort of spell, I began to talk.

"She's my sister-my twin, my other half." I paused, thinking if I should tell him everything about her, then I decided that a few facts wouldn't hurt.

Ciel suddenly looked curious and intrigued.

"Her name was Elysabeth Harmonia Wolfgang. She was the youngest in my family, but she was more like the big sister because of how she acted and how much taller she was than I was. I envied her looks and how mature and sweet she was." I said, completely confident.

Ciel squinted his eye, his other eye still closed.

Then I smiled. "Tell me about your eye, and I'll tell you everything."

Ciel froze for a moment, before he regained his composure. "Tell me everything first, then I shall tell you."

"Alright." I agreed.

"Gullible." Envy stated before laughing.

"Elyse has a face of an angel and she is very feminine compared to me. I was the rudest out of everyone- as you can see,"I flashed him a smile," and also, she loved our dog, Severity. She was a very sweet and gentle girl, she always tried her best and Daddy always called her "Frau Elyse" and I was always called "Klein Alise" and -" Ciel abruptly stopped me from blabbering.

"She was?" he emphasized on was.

Uh oh. Had I really?

"I-I mean-"

"Tell me the truth, Klein Alise." He smirked as he imitated my father, his grip on my arms tightening.

I clenched my teeth, feeling my face grow hot and feeling tears form. "She's dead, Phantomhive," I cried, closing my eyes and letting tears fall freely,"she's dead because..." I sobbed, not wanting to finish.

Flashback

"Elyse!" I shouted, running around the outside of our mansion, wearing a baby blue summer dress.

"Elyse! Where are you?" I shouted once more before seeing the edge of a pale, yellow dress behind the old, clean well we loved to play around. I smiled and jumped onto my sister.

"Lexi, stop that!" She giggled, her eyes shining a perfect ocean blue like our Vati.

"What are you doing here,"I laughed as her beautiful vanilla-colored hair which smelt like the color of her hair, all very soft tickled my face as I hugged her. Her hair was far more beautiful than my fallow-colored hair.

"Reading the book you gave me..." she smiled sweetly, her eyes reflecting all the love that one could give to their sister,"it's rather good, the book.".

"I'm glad you like it," I smiled. What was the title of the book again? My eyes wandered off to the thick, navy blue book with a title in gold, old-fashioned German letters.

"Schneewittchen und Die Sieben Zwerge." I read out loud, immediately taking a liking and interest at the name 'Schneewittchen'.

"It's a beautiful Märchen." She smiled as she tried out her German.

"Ich liebe den namen Schneewittchen." I giggled at my own try-hard German.

She chuckled, "Doesn't Schneewittchen mean Snow White?" she asked.

"Yes, it does. Oh! Mutti," I began, remembering what our part Korean and Japanese mother told us,"she told me to tell her where you are as soon as I found her. I'll be right back!".

"Hurry!" She shouted back, smiling.

But little did I know she was serious. What I didn't know was that a group of men were watching Elyse's every move, so if she were to move away from the well, they'd kill her.

When I came back, her eyes were closed, a weak smile placed on her lips with the book beside her, the red ribbon which tied her hair up gone and placed on her stomach.

"Elyse?", I beamed, "I'm back! Mutti told us to go back to the mansion though.".

Elyse opened her eyes slightly before her hoarse voice whispered, "I'm sleepy, Lexi.".

"Sleep in the house, we have to go!" I complained, pouting. I grabbed her arm and roughly pulled her up.

Her eyes widened as she screamed in pain.

I blinked and watched the ribbon fall from her stomach. My eyes also widened as I saw that there was bright red blood, staining her stomach, and what seemed to be the tip of a knife.

I tried to scream, but her bloody hand covered my mouth.

"Don't scream, or they'll find you too..." She whispered, her eyes beginning to lose it's warm light.

"What happened Elysabeth!?" I sobbed, as I fell to my knees, dragging her with me.

"Pull out the knife," she ordered me silently, her voice cracking.

I stared at her in horror as I did as I was told, her face morphing into one of pure pain. She suddenly began coughing blood out as I threw the olive handled knife away from us. Her tears mixed with the blood she coughed out as she smiled sadly, "Run, Lexi.".

"No! Please don't leave me sister, your the only who understands me! Please, Elyse-" she cut me off.

"You must!" She half shouted, her voice strong with will. "Live on for me- live on for all who have died." she smiled as she stuck her hand out, the tips of her fingers facing the sorrowful blue sky.

"Elyse..." I whispered shakily, copying her move, but as soon as I tried to intertwine our fingers, she fell.

"It's my turn to go," she whispered. "Before I go, I want to make a promise. I promise I will come back for you... I promise..." She whispered as she stuck out her pinky.

I sniffled and did the same.

Our pinkies intertwined for a good, 5 seconds until her hand fell.
She smiled once more before her eyes fluttered closed.

"NOO!" I cried, sobbing into her chest.

She wasn't breathing.

Death had came for her. Death comes and buries their victims deep, and this time, it was my dear sister...

End of Flashback

"She was murdered behind my back!" I wailed, suddenly wrapping my arms around Ciel's head, pulling him into a tight, caring hug.

I saw Ciel's eye widen as I pulled him into a hug. I didn't care about anything right now.

I silently kept sobbing, my body shaking as I remembered every detail and the disgusting stench.

"Let it out," Envy whispered with a caring tone.

"It's alright, Lexi..." I heard Ciel faintly whisper, as he patted my back.

"You wouldn't know Ciel..." I cried," you wouldn't know how it feels like- let me tell you!" I shakily said. "It felt like everything had just died! I had to take anti-depression pills and even the strongest out of the strong didn't work! It wasn't until Rui came that my world slowly began to re-form. However, the world reforming doesn't mean that everything's colored again... it's all still shades of black, Ciel... I don't care anymore..." I wailed, suddenly feeling as if I was lighter- as if all my sad feelings have gone. No! I don't want them to leave!

"It was my fault, wasn't it?" I cried, putting the blame on myself.

"No, it wasn't." He sternly said.

"Yes it was- if only I had came much faster- or even if I hadn't left, if I took her with me she would still be a-" I was cut off by Ciel.

"No, it wasn't!" He shouted, his voice suddenly filling with emotion.

I felt something wet on my neck. I pushed away, startled, staring at his face.
My eyes widened. I managed to make him cry a bit.

He bit his lip as he blushed, his arms still trapping me.

Then I smiled and laughed as I realized something.

Even the evilest out of the demons have feelings.
Even someone as stoic as him can cry.

I laughed heartily, feeling as if I had found one of the 'Seven Wonders' on Earth. Then everything went black.

Whoa, OOC.

But hey, I updated and even the Devil has some kindness in his closet.

Why did Lexi's father call her Alise? Because that's the name he wanted her to have, but her mother wanted Alexandra, thus the name Alexis was born.
