Chapter 4
Black Roses
Previously :
your POV:
After awhile I sensed a familiar presence in my room. I couldn't tell what or who it was as the appeared to be using magic to hide that can't be good. I turned around and headed towards the door. It was locked. I unlock the door and run out the room towards the kitchen.
Sebastian is in the kitchen preparing for the morning and glares at me as I run into the room. "Do you not know that-" before he can finish lecturing me a man appears at the door with a woman.
"Might I ask who you two are," Sebastian asks glaring at all 3 of us.
"Well I believe y/n over there can clarify who I am can't you sweet heart." The man looks at me with a devilish smile.
I stand there in shock before quietly. My head facing the ground.
"Hello father. As much as I'd like to welcome you. I feel it would not be right to welcome trash like you."
Now:
Your POV:
Father looks at me with a devilish smirk."My darling daughter y/n is that anyway to talk to your own flesh and blood"He then holds his had up with his palm facing my face.
"I think my little darling needs to remember what happens to little girls when they step out of line. Would you not agree Elinor?" He looks towards the woman standing next to him and then puts his hand in a tight fist.
I turn to Sebastian who is watching this happen. Why is he not doing anything? All of a sudden my head becomes extremely painful. I can see father's smirk and I can hear the giggling from the woman who he has called Elinor.
Sebastian looks at me in shock before turning to my father with his normal put on smile." I am afraid I cannot allow any visitors to the Phantomehive manner at this point in time and I must kindly ask you to leave. If you wish to seek an audience with The Earl please come again in the morning"
All of a sudden Sebastian begins attacking and father in shock strengthens the pain and I pass out.
Sebastian's POV:
Miss y/n appears to have passed out. Her father must have a talent for magic. I throw my knives at the two intruders but before they hit they stop in mid air and fall. The woman at the door is holding a stick and is using it to move objects around the room. pots and knives and a flamethrower? (thought i removed all them) begin making there way to attack me. From this I conclude she is a witch.
"Look young man, I only wish to speak with my daughter who has broken a little rule." He looks towards the passed out girl before raising his hand. She floats up and into his arms. " She looks so human like this. Reminds me of when she was a child."
He carries the girl and holds out his hand. I try to move but I can't. He then walks towards me and places y/n on the table." I'll take my leave for now but I will be back." He takes a small book from his pocket and places it on the table." Tell my little black rose that daddy loves her. Also your young master appears to be coming towards this room. I'll let you tell him about me." He takes a black rose from the inside of his jacket and places it on the table before nodding to the witch and they disappear in a purple mist. I then see the Young master at the door.
This is going to be a long night.
The next morning
your POV:
I awaken in my room to find Sebastian standing beside my bed. "What are you doing hear Sebastian?" I sit up and look at the butler when the events of last night sink in.
He looks at me blankly"I was meerly checking your father had not seriously brain damaged you-"
I cut him off," Sebastian are YOU ok? My father normally kills demons easily."
He puts on his normal fake smile." I am fine miss y/n. You on the other hand passed out at the hands of your-"
"I don't believe you are entirely ok." I had cut him off again. " My father can't kill me or hurt me enough to damage me but he can and will hurt you."
He looks at me I can see the irritation in his eyes." There is no reason to worry about me miss I must assure you I am fine." He isn't going to listen to me is he? I hate doing this but it's the only way.
I hold my hand towards his face freezing his movements." I am sorry but I can't get you to tell me if you are of so I am going to destroy the curse my father has clearly put on you. Since you won't willingly let me I have restrained you."
I concentrate on the curse. It's a simple obedience spell. That if left could be troublesome for us all. I stare into the demons eyes and into his mind. I find the ugly curse. My father was never good at hiding them like me. In his mind I take form trying not to go any deeper than the first layer. I then walk over to the curse which has taken the form of a snake and smash it's head with my foot. It evaporates imidiatly. That should be all the curses my father put on him... But he appears to have quite a few from other demons. All of these are simple 'joke' curses where if he hears a sentence he will have some thought or memory. But as I dive through the curses braking each one I find the gold. A black rose curse.
It's energy tells me it was my father who cursed him trying to hide it among minor curses and spells already there. I quickly destroy the curse. My father sure wants me dead.
I remove myself from Sebastian mind and give him a serious look. " You have been cursed a grate deal of times. I have removed them all but I need to know if anyone besides you and me where up last night." I then unfreeze him.
He looks curiously at me." I had no idea you possessed such strong magical abilities miss y/n. The young master was also awake last night and was not very pleased with the sudden intruder."
" I will explain later. Also did my father leave anything?" I need to know if he may have left the book. I can sense it has been here.
" Yes he did. A small book and a black rose." I couldn't help but laugh." what is so funny miss y/n?"
"It is nothing of much importance. Burn the rose it is a cursed object ment to kill me. The book though will help me explain about the whole rose thing...but firstly I need to lift any curses the young master may have."
Later in the day
your POV:
Having removed the curses from the young master who was not happy at all, I now stood in the young masters study. He was eating his lunch and had requested I now give him answers. I take out the small book.
"This book has a spell on it. The spell is that only a black rose and those who they want to can read it. That is why mister Sebastian here could not open the book. It is also why my father has given up trying to read it." I hand it too the young master.
"I a the black rose. A 1/4 demon and 3/4 human creature. You may already know this but all humans are a red rose and inhumans are white roses. When these two breeds are crossed the child is a light pink rose unless the creature is 1/2 demon then it becomes a deep blue rose. Now if you then take the deep blue rose and combine it with the red rose you would get a 3/4 demon which is a black rose."
The lord Phantomehive looked at me as if I was crazy while the butler who most certainly already knew this looked humored. The young master then stands up." We are not plants why would a rose be so important?"
Sebastian chuckles devilishly (no pun intended)." It is just a metaphor. Roses are used to describe what we all are. Roses seem beautiful at first until you realise the thorns
which cut through you."
The Earl takes his seat. " So please explain your fathers murderous intent towards you."
I frown and look to the floor. " To be honest I don't know why he wants to kill me. When he met a witch called Rose who was obsessed with the power of roses he turned his objections from turning me into a powerful being to not caring of my existence. All Information I know is in that book. It also contains magic which I am sure both you and your butler will find useful. Might I ask where I might find a knife,rope and salt?
Sebastian glares at me. He comes over and looks into my eyes. " might i ask what you are planing?"
"I'm planning to kill my father before he kills me"I look him in the eye " Don't worry I'll clean the mess. I also need chalk and your help."
"I will help you but you know that what you are doing will not kill him completely." We then both look at the young master and grin.
The young master looks terrified. " What in gods name are you both planning?"
