Chapter 1 (The long wait there)

Meredith POV
This carriage ride has been going on for too long. We've been stuck in this small room for over 3 horrible hours. Sure it was just me and my butler but it gets boring. "Is something wrong my lady?" I look over at my butler. She sat there with a small smile and a book. "Nothing just bored, " I say as I slump in my seat. "Why not read a book? You brought many with you." "Yes I know but I've read all of them. More than 3 times. I love reading but when you read the same thing over and over you get tired." "Hm, I see. Well, I just so happen to bring some new books you might like." She reached under her seat and pulled out a small brown bag. "Why didn't you say this earlier?" I ask with a sad and yet happen tone. "I didn't know if you wanted them or not. Please forgive me, my lady." She says as she bows her head. "Oh of course I do. You can't read minds after all." I reach and grab the bag of books. I pull each one out. They were big books to say. Each one a brow color. No pitchers at the front. No title as well. "What are these?" I ask. "They are history books." She says. "Why on earth do you have history books?" I ask as I look at her. Her brown eyes staring back at me. "Well, I want you to know about the young Earl Phantomhive. You should know some before we meet him." She says as she closes her eyes. "You are right. Hm, what can you tell me about them?" I ask. She smiled at me. "His name is Ciel Phantomhive. He is 18 years of age. He has no wife nor is he engaged. The women he was to marry ran off to marry a different man. For her parents did not like Ciel after something went down. His parents passed when he was a young boy. Right now he has a butler name, Sebastian. And 3 more servants I do not know the name of." She tells me. This boy is quite something I say. Such a hard life he has had. Sad his soon to be wife was "sold" to a new man. What a shame really. "Thank you very much. This helped quite a lot." "Of course my lady."

Time skip

Finally, I can get out and walk. After about one more hour we got to a stop. We are now in the middle of the woods. I'm not sure why we are going this way. It may be faster. "My lady please don't walk too far off." "Oh I'm fine Veronica," I say to my butler. She smiles "oh yes I know but I do worry about what might be in the woods." "You right but s-" I stop as I see someone standing over by a tree. They had a butler suite on with glasses. I could not see there face fully. I quickly walk over to Veronica. "Veronica?" "Yes, my lady?" "There is a butler over there. Can you go see if he's hurt or anything?" I ask her. She looks up and says. "There is no one over there my lady." "What?!" I turn back and no one was there. "But I.." "My lady I will go look for you. They might have run off." She walks past me. "Say here and please don't want off." She says as she runs off. "*sigh* Please be ok," I say.

Veronica POV

I walked past my young master to where she saw this person. I walk over to the tree and look behind it. No one was there. I look past the trees and the bushes. I still see no one. I walk past the tree and walk around but not too far but. I still saw no one or anything saying anyone was here. 'If she saw someone they are long gone. She might have seen a bear or something like that. Well, either way, what it was is gone.' I thought to myself. I turn to leave when I hear a trig snap. I turn my head over my shoulder and look around. I saw no one again. 'Deer?' I ask myself. I turn back and start to walk back. As I am walking I can't get the feeling that I'm being watched.

??? POV

So she has a butler huh? A female butler as well. Seems like they like changing the rules of the world. Well, the "rules".  Anyway looks like my master will be having some new information today. 

Veronica POV

I got back to my young master sitting by the carriage. "Are you ok my lady?" I ask her with a bow. She looked up at me and a small smile came to her face. "Oh yes, I'm fine. I just got worried you were hurt or something." "Oh no, my lady. I am fine and ready to get you to were you need to be." I put my hand out to her to help her up. She reached up and took my hand. I pulled her up and helped her into the carriage. Before I got in with her I look back into the woods to see if anyone was there. I saw no one but I could feel eyes on me. 

Meredith POV

I sat in my seat reading the book Veronica gave me. It was just information about Ciel and his life. Where he grew up, mom and dad, other families, and some other things. I learned that his parent's names were. Earl Vincent Phantomhive was his father and his mother's name is Rachel Dalles Phantomhive. They passed when he was young. I could not find a date in the book tho. It says "Ciel Phantomhive mother and father passed away...." And then it was marked out. His aunt named Baroness Angelina Dalles-Burnett, nicknamed Anne and known to her peers as Madam Red, is the widow of Baron Burnett, the younger sister of Rachel Phantomhive. She is still alive and well. Ciel is known as Queen's Watchdog. "Aw how cute." I giggled. I hear movent and I look up. It was my butler sleeping with her book on her lap. I smiled she looked as if she got knocked out. I sigh and sit the book down. I lay back and start to fall asleep. "How will this mission go?" I whisper as I slowly fall asleep.
