Chapter 1

Five Years Later...

"My Lord" Ciel's eyes widened as he woke up from his daydreams to see Sebastian looking at him. Ciel wasn't sure if it was concern or anger that showed in Sebastian blood-red eyes.

"What is it, Sebastian?" He asked him regaining himself once again.

"You've forgotten you're in the middle of a violin lesson, My Lord." He informed him as his eyes changed to amusement as Ciel's cheeks turned pink slightly from embarrassment. "I know it's not your most enjoyable lessons but please pay attention"

Ciel looked away annoyed at Sebastian, how dare he have the nerve to treat him like a child still. He was a man now or at least in two months he would be.

"Why don't we leave it at that for day" His butler said as he made his way to the door. "Do you wish to have some tea?"

"Yes" Ciel said as he looked down at the violin and when Sebastian finally left the room he allow out a large sigh.

Ciel placed the violin on the side of his desk and sat in his chair while looking down at the garden with thoughts surfacing once again.

For the past year or so, he had been losing himself in daydreams. Not being able to keep focus on what was going on around him.

He still hadn't got any closer to uncovering his parent's murderers or taking his revenge. But that wasn't the biggest thing on his mind, weirdly enough.

The door of the study opened once again, the young master turned around to see Sebastian with a tray with his tea and with something else which he noticed when Sebastian placed the tray on the desk.

"What is that?" He asked as Sebastian placed two sugar cubes carefully into the drink.

"A letter from Mr. Gladstone" He informed his master, for Ciel's eyes to widen showing his shock. He looked down at the letter which urgency but tried to stop himself as Sebastian handed over the cup to him which he took a tiny sip of.

"What does the letter say?" Ciel asked him.

Sebastian opened up the letter with a letter opener and read out the following.

Dear, Lord Phantomhive

We have reserved your letter about the concern of the Midford Family. Unfortunately, we have no evidences or information about their whereabouts and can sadly not help you with your requested. We will inform you if we find anything out which we believe will concern you or that may help.

Your Sincerely, Mr. Gladstone, Head Officer of Scotland Yards

Ciel gripped tightly on his chair as he looked out his window not wanting to face Sebastian as he tried to shallow in his anger. Though it was very obvious to him that his young master was anger. It had been four or so years since he had heard a word from the Midford Family. Absolutely nothing.

He couldn't understand. Weren't they suppose to be gone for a year and yet it had been half a decade already, since he had last saw them. Since he had see Lizzie's smile or her cry. Ciel banged his fist against the desk out of frustration.

How can they not find anything?! He thought to himself as he covered his eye with his other hand as Sebastian looked as at his hand as it began to swell up slightly and was bright red.

"Calm yourself, Lord" Sebastian told him but how could he. It had been four years and nothing. They found nothing.

He didn't want to give up. He didn't want to believe the thought that the last remains of his family was gone. Gone for good.

She ran through the streets breathless, not wanting to move her legs anymore but knew she couldn't stop, not now. Not after everything she had been through.

The girl pushed through the passengers by ignoring the look of disgust she was given; it didn't really concern her, what others thought of her. Her life was more important at the moment. She looked behind her to see they weren't far behind her. She speeded up her running but it was only using up the little energy she had left.

She looked around trying to find a place or something that could help her out.

Think, Mary, think, she thought to herself, shivering slightly as she turned the corner. To find herself at a dead-end. She could hear a cold laugh behind her. Mary turned around to see it was them. Slowly making their way towards her.

"Nowhere to escape now, Mary" The one of them told her as she pushed herself against the wall, trying to keep out of his reach as he tried to touch her chestnut hair, "Come back home, Mary. Your papa is worried sick about you and the rest of your siblings-"

Before he could even finish his sentence, he was hit around the head with a brick. Mary could hear the sound of the man's skull as the brick hit the back of his head.

One by one each of them were taken down until they were none left. Mary was still glued to the wall and allows her body to breathe as she realized she was safe.

"Mary" She looked up from the bodies to see him and the others looking at her with great concern. She finally released herself from the wall and ran with arms open and hugged them as they did the same to her. "Mary, where's Alice?"

For her eyes to widened with fear as she just remembered "I-I-I-I-" She burst into tears. The tallest girl of the group picked Mary up from the floor and comforted her. They all turned to the boy's face showed clear sign of anger but he couldn't take it out on Mary.

"Mary, what happened to Alice?" The boy said keeping his anger in control.

"They found out while we will at the market, Alice had to grab a hold of me and we ran but they were catching up on us. So, Alice told me to run for it as she distracted them" She explained as she tried to tell them clearly. "Some of them saw me and catch me to a dead-end and that's when you found me..." She finished and began to cry all over again, the tall girl tried to calm it girl.

"What do we do now?" She asked the boy but he was as unsure as they were. What could they do? Risk going out there and find her or leave her... He couldn't just leave her. "You know what she would want us to do-"

"I know!" He shouted, his anger finally exploding. He looked at the others and could see the fear flinging in their eyes. "I'm sorry..." He apologized but he couldn't help it. He looked back at the girl and Mary in her arms. He stoked her hair and tried to give her a realistic smile. "Don't worry, we'll find her"

I'll make sure of it...
