"Y-Yeah, I was just-! But he-!" Tanner stuttered, at a loss for words. Sebastian pushed Tanner aside, kneeling down beside Ciel. Ciel stood up, staring at Tanner. He then turned away and ran off, as fast as he could.

"Ciel…" Sebastian stood up, frowning at Tanner. "You just love causing trouble, don't you?"

"Well, he's your master! You should at least be able to take care of him!" Tanner yelled. Unfortunately for Sebastian, the principal just happened to walk by at the time. The principal said nothing, only giving Sebastian a conference slip. Sebastian stuffed it in his pocket, not caring to look at it. His eyes began to glow red.

"If you cause any more trouble, I swear on my life, you will regret it. Or you may not even have the life to feel regret," Sebastian followed Ciel's path, on a steady walk.

Anna and Taylor stared out of their bus window, seeing the fight that just went on. Taylor felt tears run down her face.

"Oh, my god… Is he okay?" Taylor whimpered. Anna handed Taylor a small towel, frowning.

"I'll go check…" Anna stood up, leaving the bus, and glanced at Tanner. "You should be ashamed of yourself." She ran after Sebastian, following him all the way back to an apartment building.

"Hey, Mr. Michaelis?" Anna asked from a few feet behind him. Sebastian turned around, a worried look on his face.

"Anna? If you'd like to see Ciel, then just come right up," Sebastian's voice was filled with worry and anger at the same time.

"Really? Um… Alright, thanks…" Anna followed Sebastian into the apartment and saw Ciel sitting on the couch, holding an ice pack to his cheek. "Ciel? You alright?" Anna sat next to him on the couch, looking around. After Ciel's non-responsive behavior, Anna decided to talk to Sebastian.

Anna picked a small, fragile vase off of the table. "This entire apartment is so… Victorian."

Sebastian nodded, still not smiling. "Is it to your liking?"

"It's beautiful…"

"My young master is very fond of things from the era."

"So, you really are his butler, huh? I thought he was just joking around, but…"

"I know, it's… strange."

"Also, I noticed your accents. They're… British, right?"

"I suppose."

"The last Phantomhive generation I heard of was in the Victorian era, and they had a son named Ciel, too. But, it's just some ridiculous claim that Ciel would actually be that child… He'd be a few hundred years old."

"… I see…"

Soon, Ciel dozed off to sleep.

"You know, Taylor really likes him," Anna smiled at Sebastian.

"Really, now?" Sebastian looked back at Ciel.

"Yeah… Do you mind… giving her private lessons here? I mean, she really wants to get closer to Ciel and all, and… I just wanna help her," Anna's face flushed.

"Well, that depends… Can you put down some standards as to whether or not you deserve this favor?" Sebastian smirked.

"Alright… If I can beat you at… ice dancing, you give Taylor the lessons, kay?" Anna held her hand out. Sebastian nodded, shaking her hand. "Also, I hear you're in big trouble with the principal?"

"Oh, it's nothing. Well, nothing I can't shake off," Sebastian brushed a piece of Ciel's hair out of his eye, smiling.

"Wow. You must be pretty tough, then. Our principal is tough. She'll break you," Anna breathed.

"I think I'll manage, Anna. So, how are your studies? I see you're doing rough in history," Sebastian frowned at Anna.

"Eh, I guess I'm just not that into it. History isn't my thing," Anna frowned back. She stood up, followed by Sebastian. "So how about that ice dancing competition?"

So, the two went off to the rink and got their skates on. A few people gave them dirty looks for no apparent reason, but they dismissed it. The manager managed to get the ice cleared for them, and as soon as possible, Anna stepped out on the ice. She was in a beautiful black dress that ended near her knees in a glowing flow design. There was a swirling red design going up her waist and wrapping around her stomach. Sebastian followed after her, bowing.

"My, my, Annabelle. You look stunning," he smiled.

"I could say the same to you, Mr. Michaelis," Anna replied, twirling around once to give her dress the full effect. Sebastian's outfit was a plain black tuxedo with a red rose in his breast pocket. It was simple, really, but it had its perks.

"Please… Call me Sebastian."

Anna froze. They were on a first name basis, now!? Listen up, in the 21st century, most students aren't allowed to be on a first name basis with their teachers!

"S-Sebastian? Okay… Let's just get on with the skating, then!" Anna smiled as Sebastian backed up to the boards. Beethoven's Fur Elise began to play as Anna did brilliant spins, turns, and jumps… when suddenly…

"AH!" she screamed. "I think… I… I think I b-broke my leg!"

OOOOH! CLIFF HANGER! Not really ;) Anyways, I'm always a chapter ahead of you, so don't worry! I'll be updating later today, then tonight, then tomorrow again! X3 I have a biiiiiiiig surprise in store for you, including the principal... and Taylor's... BUTLER!? O.O" Oh, my... What will come of this ball of timey-whimey-spacey-wacey-wibbly-wobbly STUFF?

The Doctor: This is my timey-whimey detector! It goes "DING!" when there's stuff! =D

Yeaaaaaaah... I don't care, Doctor. Go back to whatever TARDIS you crawled out of. (Not hating! C'mon, guys! We all love the Doctor! xD )
