Ash gingerly wraps a tape measure around all parts of my body. The whole ordeal makes me blush.
"How about I send the measurements to your company, dear ________? And I'll send a little clue for your demon," Ash sneers. "Come, I'll show you to your quarters."
I follow him upstairs and down a hall. The whole building seemed elegant. He opens the last door on the left. A small room with a single bed and a chest. A mirror hung on the door.
"I have taken the liberty of getting you new clothes as well. In the chest. I expect you at real dinner in an hour."
I just now notice the darkness outside. Ash closes the door. I open the creaking chest. A simple yellow and white lace dress and white heels are in the chest. I peel off my ripped and bloody clothes. The dress feels heavenly on my skin. The shoes are the perfect size. I wonder how long he's had these measurements and shiver. I walk out into the hall and go from door to door looking for the bathroom. I find two more servant bedrooms, one of which looks occupied. Then, I open the door two down from mine. A lavish bed takes up most of the room. A vanity is against the opposite wall. The whole room smells faintly of Ash. It seems I was there at the wrong moment because the bathroom door opens. I dash out the room and continue looking for another bathroom at a faster rate. I finally find one and I brush my hair. It isn't very clean, but at least it's brushed.

After, I continue down the hall and I finally find the dining room.
Ash is seated already. His white/silver hair is all pulled back. He has on a pearly white suit and tie. He stands at the sight of me. He smiles flirtatiously. If he wasn't trying to seduce me, I would have smiled back. He pulls out the chair next to him. I walk over and sit next to him. He sits down.
"I thought you might like to hear my rough draft of the note? My favorite queen so far has been Elizabeth. Signed, with your name, dear _________. Do you think that is a good clue? It will be addressed with Ciel's name."
"How is that a clue?" I ask. "And why...Ciel?"
"Oh, we are staying in Lady Elizabeth's town house of course! I have been building that underground area for a year now. I even tested it a couple times while waiting for you. I decided what a wonderful game this would be and I thought Ciel would bring more drama to the current situation. By the way, the dress gives you a hypnotic hourglass figure," he says. My face burns. "I see your wrists are better? The bandage isn't seeping with blood anymore. I also added a new player for the occasion." He has a mischievous smile. "Grell? Come in please."

(Sebastian's POV)

No, I can't find her. She's... gone. Ash's scent is gone and with that all chance of finding her. I fall off the horse and onto the ground. Panic soon fills my everything. Ash probably started torturing her. Her screams muffled. She is waiting for me knowing that I will save her. Demons never ever, ever cry, but a single tear drops. I struggle to stand. I will hunt them down. I swear it on my immortal life.

I jump back on the horse and race back to the town house. Ciel sees my distressed face.
"Sebastian? Where is ______?" He asks.
"I...don't know. She was taken, by... Ash."
"No, your lying. I order you to tell me, where is she?"
"With Ash."
Several emotions cross his face. Anger, sadness, worry, guilt, and then collapse.
"__________," he repeats over and over as he slumps to the floor.
A pounding knock echoes through the hall, snapping Ciel out of it. I open the door. A small servant boy stands with a letter in his hands.
"It's a bit late for telegrams," I say.
"Sorry sir, dis just came urgent to the dressmaker with your 'aster's name on it." He explains.
I take the note. It's very plain. Earl Ciel Phantomhive is scrawled on it.
"Why did the dressmaker have this?"
"It was delivered with measurements, it was!"
"Thank you," I say and pull out a small coin for him. He thanks me and runs off. I close the door. The grandfather clock chimes twice. I walk past it into the study where Ciel sit. I hear him talking to someone.
"I don't care about past experiences. This is important..... Keep him on a leash please when you look.... Thanks, you will be repayed."
I knock.
"Enter." Ciel calls.
"This arrived urgently at ______'s dress shop. It has your name on it."
"Give it here!" Ciel jumps up and snatches the letter.
"It's her handwriting," he mutters as he opens the letter.
"'My dearest Ciel,
I need you to save me. Ash has me. I don't want that Sebastian to have me. Only you. Ash allowed me to give you one clue. My favorite queen is Queen Elizabeth.
Love,
Your dearest ______'"
"What is this?" Ciel asks.
"I have no idea, my lord," I say. "I think it's the beginning of a game. Ash has made the first move."
