A/N: I've had my Math/Pre-Algebra and English finals so far… Let's pray I did good xD Because I mostly used our review time in class to write chaps of this fic… lolz xD Proves how much I love you guys ^^ And you're welcome… Can I call you Jess? xD DISCLAIMER: I do not, in any way, shape, or form, own Kuroshitsuji or any of the characters. It belongs to its rightful owner(s). All I own is my OC, Thalia/Victoria… xD
Over the next few hours, I did indeed meet their 'leader'.
He wasn't at all like I expected; just a kid, really. I figured he must be somewhere around the age I was when the whole event occurred, namely, thirteen. Maylene, Finny, and Bardroy told me his parents had been killed in a house fire, which slightly interested me, but they refused to tell me any more.
Now the boy set down his teacup and focused one brilliant blue eye on me, since the other was covered by an eyepatch (which also intrigued me, but I refrained from asking about it because it might have made him angry or uncomfortable).
"So you must be Ciel Phantomhive," I commented lamely.
"That is correct; I am Ciel, Earl of Phantomhive," he retorted, raising an eyebrow slightly. "But the better question is," he continued, sitting up in his chair and looking me in the eye, "Who the devil are you?"
I laughed (although a little harshly). "That's not important; I'm just a passerby, my name is Thalia. Nothing special about me, now is there?" I tilted my head, smirking slightly.
"You have the lovliest hair," his butler (Sebastian, I assumed) interrupted, coming up behind me and stroking it softly. "Like dark waves of midnight."
I squirmed in my chair. "Erm, thank you?"
"Leave her alone, Sebastian," Ciel chimed in, rolling his eyes a bit.
The butler bowed with a hand to his chest before disappearing behind a column. "As you wish, my lord."
"So," Ciel said, taking one last sip of tea, "how did you get here?"
"Your servants, I think," I replied, shrugging. "I lost consciousness somewhere, and when I regained it, I was here and they were all standing over me."
"You lost consciousness?" the boy's eye suddenly flickered with interest. "Interesting. Thalia… Do you remember seeing my butler at all before you lost consciousness?"
I squinted, trying to remember. "Well… There were black feathers everywhere, and I heard metal boots, and I saw two glowing catlike eyes. But that's all I remember."
Ciel gave me a look of horror and shock. "I hate to tell you this… But I think you may be a demon now."
A/N: I know, short, short, short! DX But I'm sort of getting writers' block… And I had to write this one fast because my mom could be home soon and then I have to study xD But you know you love me! xD Bye for now! ^^
