Chapter 3
Crash!
I gave an annoyed sigh, flattening my ears as I heard a loud crashing noise. They were at it again...
I had quickly learned that life in this manor wasn't always perfect, and 'accidents' happened often. The Phantomhive servants had some pretty bad habits, leaving Sebastian to clean up after their mess.
Mey-Rin was extremely far-sighted, and had problems with her eyesight... so of course, she broke everything.
Finny was extremely strong, so he 'accidentally' destroyed stuff all the time...
And Bard? He was obsessed with weapons and hadn't yet realized that flamethrowers are not for cooking.
Snake and Sebastian were the only two who did their job correctly.
Though, two good things: Sebastian didn't fawn over me nearly as much as he did at first. I had just become a regular household member, not a little cuddly kitty to snuggle all the time, and Ciel had grown to like me, and no longer wanted to throw me across the room all the time, which we covered in the last chapter...
I fluffed out my fur, growling lightly.
"When will they ever learn not to ruin everything?" I huffed, tail flicking with aggravation. Sebastian, who had been sitting beside me, stood up with a growl and pinched the bridge of his nose, leaving to investigate.
I sat and waited to hear Sebastian scolding them, and I then heard the high-pitched shriek of Mey-Rin. What the...?
I stood and leaped off of the couch, making my way towards the source of the noise, and when I saw it, I facepawed.
There were Mey-Rin, Finny, and Bard, all up on top of a table and smashing things... with a bunch of little mice running around them.
"You've got to be kidding me," I hissed, unsheathing my claws. "You three, get down from there and stop breaking stuff! Let me handle this."
I then sprang at the little creatures, easily dispatching them one by one until all of the little mice were in a nice little pile, dead. When I was finished, I sat down and calmly licked one paw, bringing it over my ear.
"That, my friends, is how you get rid of mice," I stated, while they just stared at me in awe.
"Thank you, miss Raven!" Finny exclaimed, coming down from the table and reaching down like he was about to hug me..
"Finny, no!" Bard and Mey-Rin suddenly exclaimed. Finny stopped in his tracks, sheepishly scratching the back of his head.
"Heh... sorry! I forgot," he said with an embarrassed smile. "That woulda been bad if I had crushed you!"
"Damn right it would've," Bard huffed. "I swear, Finny, you're so careless at times!"
"Yeah... that's nice and such, but uh.. do you guys plan on cleaning up this mess anytime soon?" I said with a blank expression. "Sebastian is gonna be pissed if he has to clean up after your messes again."
All three of the servants then put a hand to their heads and saluted me.
"Yes ma'am!" Finny chirped.
"Will do, miss Raven, yes I will!" Mey-Rin saluted.
"Aye, miss Raven, we'll get right on it!" Bard stated, and the three servants then began getting to work. I gave a slightly annoyed sigh and made my way back to the living room, where Sebastian was sitting on the couch.
"Why weren't you in there?" I asked him as I jumped onto the couch beside him. Sebastian flashed a light smile and petted me on the head.
"You seemed to have everything under control. There was no need for me to intervene," he stated calmly. I just rolled my eyes and curled up, draping my tail over my nose and drifting off to sleep.
Nyeh, sorry for the shortness! I'll try and include some actual PLOT soon, but at the moment I have writer's block, so I'm mainly just writing little filler chapters. Anyway, thanks to "Just a guest" for the mouse idea! I am still open for plot ideas, so if you have any, hit me with 'em~!
I also love reviews. They give me a reason to keep writing and inspire me to keep writing, so if you like the story, please drop a review. :3 if you review, you get a free cookie.
