Chapter 5: Those sisters, hair, and 'the day'
After lunch, Drocell left saying he had more dolls to design and create. Thus, the Phantomhive estate moved on. The Silverrose sisters were always there to help. However, things began to heat up two weeks after Drocell's visit. Sparrow was straightening up the halls when she ran into Sebastian. "Miss Sparrow, the master requests to see you," he informed.
"Ah, thank you, Sebastian," Sparrow smiled. As she walked, Sebastian walked behind her. "I'm guessing he wants to see us both?" Sparrow asked. "Yes, that is correct," he confirmed. They walked in silence.
As they entered Ciel's office, he looked up. He motioned for Sparrow to sit while Sebastian stood behind her chair. "Yes, young master, you summoned me?" she smiled. "Yes, it's about your hair," he said, a bit disgusted, his eyebrow twitched uncontrollably. "What of it, Sir?" she tilted her head to the side in question.
"Sorry but I can't have my servants basically telling the world I think it's appropriate to have their hair in such, conditions," he said slowly. Sparrow continued to smile, "In what condition, Sir?" she asked.
That was it.
Ciel stood and slammed his hands on his desk. "Good Lord women, are you blind? You have bloody twigs in your hair!" he shouted.
"Ah, that's what you meant, sorry," Sparrow sweat dropped. Her hair was in poor conditions, it was frizzy had twigs in it and was tangled.
"Why is your hair in such a poor condition?" Sebastian asked with a tilt to his head and a raise of his eyebrow. "Ah, well to tell the truth, I've never really learned or cared to learn how to take care of my hair," she admitted shamelessly. "What about how it was before… this?" Ciel asked.
"Well up to this point since I believe in, 'if it's not falling out it's fine' Clementine and Ace have been taking care of it. But since they now have their own matters to tend to, they don't have the time," she shrugged.
"Ah, I see, well this is where Sebastian comes in, you will take care of Sparrow's hair from now on, understood?" Ciel asked. Said ever loyal butler placed a hand on his chest and gave a light bow, "Of course, my lord." he said.
Ciel nodded, "Good, you two are dismissed, " he waved them off. Sparrow stood and curtsied before exiting the room. When she and Sebastian were in the hallway, Sparrow turned. "Bye," she said while walking. Before she could get far, Sebastian grabbed her by the back of her collar, stopping her. Sebastian was surprised it felt like he was grabbing a cat by the gruff of their neck. "And if you don't mind me asking, where are might you be going?" he gave a closed eyed smile.
"To tend to my duties, why?" she asked innocently. "I do believe we have some… duties to tend to, together," he smirked devilishly.
~later~
Mey-rin walked down the hallway while carrying freshly cleaned sheets. She stopped when she thought she heard something. "Oh, Sebastian ~!" It was Sparrow! A trail of blood trickled down her nose. "Yes, harder harder!" she cried.
Ms. Sparrow sounded like she was in absolute bliss. "Yes, that's the spot! More, more~!" she begged. Mey-rin now had to rewash the sheets because she had just coated them in blood. "Ms. Sparrow, do try to be more quite the water can't drown out all of your noise." stated Sebastian.
Mey-rin dashed to the kitchen where the other servants were eating.
"Mey-rin what is it? Your nose is bleeding, are you okay?" Clementine asked. "What is it? What did ya' see, hear, smell, or touch?" Bard asked. "I heard Mister Sebastian and Miss Sparrow having sexual intercourse, I did," she whispered.
That hit a bad spot on Ace and Clementine.
They stood up, eyes like stars.. They wore identical sadistic smiles. They walked out of the room, hair flowing upward in an unfelt wind and dark auras that could kill. Judging by their demeanor, that's exactly what they were intending on doing. The accident prone servants huddled together in shock and fear..
The duo went upstairs and heard Sparrow as well. Their hair flared out more. Ace was the one who opened the door. When they did, they found Sparrow sitting in a chair, her head leaned back into a large sink. Sebastian skillfully ran his hands through her hair, scratching anyplace she whined about. Sparrow released another moan. He was washing her hair. The duo at the door snapped to themselves.
"You're, washing her hair?" Clementine raised an almost perfect blue-grey eyebrow. Sebastian didn't turn around, "Yes, let me guess, you two misinterpreted her sounds?" He asked amused. "Yeah," was Ace's lazy reply. "Um, why are you washing her hair?" Clementine asked cutely tilting her head to the side. "Because the master has ordered me to take care of her hair, since the two of you were busy," he informed.
The two nodded before leaving to report to the other servants. "See, I told you if you continued to be loud the staff would get the wrong idea." Sebastian smirked. "Indeed, but you owe me 13 pound, I told you they wouldn't attack as soon as they opened the door." Sparrow smiled. Sebastian sighed.
"Yes it seems I underestimated, humans especially the females," he said the last part in a low whisper. "What do you mean human?" Sparrow's sharp sense of hearing picked up his words. Sebastian only shook his head. There was a long silence.
"I don't mean to be rude but it's been quite a bother not saying it. Are you truly human, I've never encountered anyone of the sorts who has eyes the color of yours or a presence like yours," she said.
Sebastian chuckled, "And I suppose silver eyes with flecks of another color is normal Miss Sparrow?" he challenged. "Touché," was the Silverrose sister's only response.
*three days later*
The Silverrose sisters were teeming with energy. They were getting everything done faster than usual. All the trees Finni knocked down? Taken care of in 4o min. flat. The dishes Mey-rin dropped? Saved by all the Silverrose sisters, who again missed Mey-rin herself. When the kitchen was blown to bits? Completely rebuilt.
And some of then longer tasks went by as faster, too. Like when Clementine had to chase Ciel down for a booster shot. (I don't care if they don't exist in this time) He was cherry red the rest of the day. Or when Sparrow had to chase off a large dog that was setting everything on fire. (Yes it's Pluto but if you don't want him in here then say so) And when that company carriage that was pulling an exstintion carriage that held huge logs tipped over in the front lawn and Ace had to pick them up and put them back.
Yeah, a busy day. Then while Sebastian was in the hallway on his way to escort Ciel to the garden, where lunch was, he heard them coming. Sparrow, being the fastest, was coming first. He grabbed the back of her collar, "Miss Sparrow, why on earth are you so hyper?" he asked. "I don't know," she quickly shrugged before zipping off.
Next was Clementine, he grabbed her collar, "Why on earth are you three so hyper?" he asked. She shrugged. "I don't know," she answered before dashing after her older sister. Ace was his last hope..
He grabbed the dog's collar, "Why are you so hyper?" he asked. She raised an eyebrow, "The hell if I know" came her always different reply before she zoomed off too. He sighed.
'One question, three sisters, all clueless' he shook his head.
*At lunch*
Clementine bounced up and down as if about to take flight. Ace tapped her foot like a dog. And Sparrow combed through her silky hair like a cat grooming themselves. Ciel's eyebrow twitched and he pulled his fork away from his mouth. "Why in hell are you three
So frantic?" though he cursed, Ciel sounded pretty calm.
In perfect unison, they shrugged. Ciel sighed. Ace then snapped her fingers and everyone turned to her. "I think I have a clue, Sebastian, what is today's date?" she asked. Said devilish butler raised a pitch black eyebrow, "June 24," he said.
Once again using Silverrose telepathy, their eyes widened in unison. "Tomorrow's the day!" Clementine looked shocked. "Already?" was Sparrow's prospective. "I knew it was near buy, tomorrow, are we ready?" Ace asked. They locked hands together. "No wonder we're excited! Tomorrow's the day!" Sparrow smiled.
They giggled and jumped up and down. They constantly chanted, "Tomorrow tomorrow," They then skipped in a circle, still holding hands. "Now I'm really excited!" Clementine exclaimed. Everyone looked on with confusion and idiot hairs sticking out of their heads.
"Just what exactly is tomorrow?" Sebastian asked the question that was on everyone's mind. The girls looked at him and giggled again. "Oh, sorry," Said Clementine. "But it is none other than the annual all out Silverrose battle brawl!" Sparrow exclaimed.
~X~
"So let me get this straight, once a year on June 25, all of the Silverrose family between the ages of 9 and 89 fight to near death in a 'hold nothing back' battle?" Ciel summed up. The girls nodded looking almost love struck. "That's insane!" Ciel yelled. "If I may ask, who will be participating?" Sebastian asked.
At this, the girls drooped in depression. "Unfortunately it'll only be uas and a few cousins this year," They perked up again. "But it'll still be a thrashing!" Ace said.
"Now if you'd"
"Excuse us we"
"Must get sleep,"
They finished t6heir sentence starting with Sparrow and ending with Clementine. They left to bed.
