Chap 6

Carmela dove under the bed. Dust and years of abandonment filling her nose. In her arms she was holding a doll from her childhood, the headpiece her nanny used to wear, and a winter scarf. Carmela knew it was trivial to have such silly and materialistic attachments. The footsteps outside the door got closer.

"This wing is so dank, hopefully his highness lets me clean it up. I just can't stand the stupidity in this building." The voice was crisp and comforting. Even though the intruder was right outside the door. Carmela noticed a spider crawling across the thick blue carpet. Fascinated by her cat instincts she started to torment the poor creature. She pushed on its abdomen and pulled on its legs. The creature's sanity snapped and the eight-legged beast tried to bite her finger. Carmela killed the spider and went back to focusing on the man, at least she assumed it was a man, outside the door.

The old door opened for the second time in a long time and a pair of shiny, perfectly fitting dress shoes became visible. Carmelas sharp cat eyes followed the shoes every move throughout the room. The young woman wasn't sure, but she hoped to the last breath that demons couldn't sense her. Carmela knew that she was somewhat cloaked to their tracking skills and battle attacks, but for all she knew the demon in her childhood bedroom was simply waiting for her to react.

"Whoever or whatever is under this bed, I have a message for you, make yourself shown or face the consequences." Carmela didn't move. "Your choice." The voice crooned and a face appeared. Gold eyes hidden behind shining spectacles stared at Carmelas naked, frightened form under the bed and his face instantly softened. "I am terribly sorry mademoiselle, but could you please come out from under the bed. I apologize for the hostility, I thought you were a burglar."

"Demon!" Carmela hissed shrinking back away from the man.

"We can play that way." A long black sleeved arm extended under the bed and grabbed Carmela's arm. The woman was yanked out from under the bed and lifted several inches off the ground. Whimpering she clutched her precious items closer to her chest. "A cat burglar I see."

Carmela gave the weakest of smiles at the joke and let her body go slack. The demon ste her on the bed and cleared his throat. Wide eyed Carmela was astonished. The demon was letting her go? Swiftly changing into her cat form Carmela grabbed her dusty treasures between her teeth and dashed for the door.

"Not so fast." The demon pinched the scruff of the cats neck and gingerly carried the limp cat to the window in the corridor. "I am going to let you go and not say anything of this meeting, but I want you to only only return to this manor at midnight on sunday. If I see you before then, I will kill you."

Carmela ran as fast as she could back to the phantomhive manor. When she finally returned to her chambers she felt as if she could pull off having been sick all day. Or at least having the "woman problems" that her master believed she had. She didn't know what was waiting for her in the morning.

Again I apologize for the delay. Maybe another chap. tomorrow. Among other stuff. review if you have an idea of where the story should go. My plot goes only so far. Thx a bunch- KG
