|~Kuroshitsuji (Black Butler)~| 7x7 Roleplay

[Stardustblade358 806]

Alice made her way out of the stable after she made sure the horses were alright where they were. Walking over to where Veran and Aya had headed in,she was stopped by a perky character of the town. "Wait,waaaait~" Alice turned to see Sarka hurry up to her. "You shouldn't be outside at this time of hour! Have you not heard of the deaths and disappearances?...who are you?"Sarka asked as she tilted her head. Alice straightened herself up. "My name is Alice. I am here with my lady,who has been assigned to work on this case of the missing people."Alice explained. "Ah! They finally sent someone else?! What a relief! We need to find out whatever is happening so we can stop it!"Sarka said as she waved a fan over her face. "Right...I've heard rumors about the abandoned manor?"Alice asked. "Oh that would be an old wives tales,that manor has been abandoned for decades! Far more years than before I was born too! But...after so many gone missing I'm starting to worry the rumors and legends might be true. Your lady doesn't plan on going inside the manor,does she?!"Sarka asked. "Well I'm guessing she's hoping to considering it's the biggest lead..." "Oh I do hope you all manage to come out safe and alive. If you manage to find the suspect as well...we'll be ever so grateful."Sarka said. "Er,right."Alice said as Sarka turned away and started to walk. "I do hope to see you alive by the time you get back."Sarka said as she gave a wave. "Tata~ Oh yeah,I saw them walking over there already. You should hurry!" With that she entered the court building and closed the door behind her. Alice glanced over at the manor. As the sun was setting down it was...rather eerie. She hurried over to the manor,quickly arriving right next to Veran and Aya. "My pardons milady!"Alice said as she cached her breath. She glanced up. The manor seemed to be in a state of decay,yet sturdy enough to keep itself standing. Windows were broken,the front was overgrown,the wood could easily be broken with enough force of how rotten some of it was. "This is it,right?"Alice muttered as she gulped. "I'll open it."Alice said as she reached for the door and pushed it open,having the old door squeak as it revealed the dim,darkened,and dusty interior of the manor. It was covered in spider webs from corner to corner,surely there were a few rats around. Dust everywhere. As the sunlight came through the window,the half broken chandelier gleamed with clouded crystals,the other half resting on the floor beneath it in broken pieces. Two grand stairs that led to the second floor. There were statues and paintings and photos still hanging the walls. "If the manor looked like this back at home I would be having a heart attack."Alice whispered as she covered her nose lightly,taking a few steps inside. The curtains seemed torn and worn out as they gently swayed back and forth. From the shadows a figure stood watching. Visitors? Why they would need to be driven out.

"If my Lady is nervous, feel free to wait with Madame Alice while I deal with this." Veran offered, glancing down at his Lady, who was still held in his arms, "I do not wish to put unwanted stress onto you, when this mission can be just as easily done without harming you."

 

If anything, one of Veran's biggest worries was for Aya. She constantly seemed to attract danger, so keeping her out would be a load off of his mind. Sadly, if she wanted to come into the fray with him, he had no choice but to say yes.

[Lady Aleister 1,677]

Aya leapt out of Veran's arms, walking over and hiding behid Alice.

"Destroy it, Veran." She ordered.

Veran was always good with paranormal beings, he was one himself.

All she wished for is that nothing bad happens to her.

[Silvia Kuroi 1,480]

Veran nodded, and went off, alone, to deal with the matter. A few minutes later (which must have felt like hours to Aya), Veran returned with a fairly bored look on his face. He shook his head, and shrugged, "That was what all this fuss was about? That was nothing, honestly. Your problems solved, I guess."

[Stardustblade358 806]

The figure breathed heavily as it hid inside a cupboard. "(What the hell...who are they?)"The figure thought as he peeked out of the cupboard,crawling out as he crawled on his fours around to the stairs. "(He even beat the ghosts! The ghosts were nice people though!)"The figure thought as he silently whimpered. Whoever these people were,they weren't from around here,and they weren't...normal. As in in-this-village normal. "(Maybe they're like me?)"The figure thought,wearing a large cloak with a hood over his head,he peeked even further to see two young ladies and a tall butler. "(Wow! Their dresses are so pretty!)"The figure thought when something happened. He slipped,his hand going over the top of the stairs as he fell face first down the stairs. "WHA!"He screamed as he ended up rolling down the stairs,hitting every corner of it. "OW,OW,OW,OW,OW,THAT'S GOING TO HURT TOMORROW,OW,OW,OW."The figure said as he ended up rolling down the stairs and landing right in front of the group,tangled within his own cloak. "Wha! Not again! I need to get something my size,this is getting annoying!"The figure muttered as he struggled getting out of his own cloak. Alice stared down miserably. "Veran. Kill this bug."Alice said as she went to kick it,only to get her hand caught by the figure. "W-Wait! Don't kick me! It hurts,you know!"The figure said. Alice stared in horror. His arm was...stitched up like a rag doll! Not only that,but it was stone cold to the touch...and he was grabbing her leg. "EW EW EW EW!"Alice screamed as she waved her leg around,having the figure let go. "Don't kick around in a dress!"The figure said as he covered his eyes and fell back,his face not visible due to the hood. But his arms...did indeed looked like a rag doll. "I-If you wanted money you could've just asked. But did you really had to kill the ghosts? They were kind of nice."The figure muttered under his breath.

[Lady Aleister 1,677]

"God only knows what happened to you." Aya said simply, looking at the Figures arms. 

She fell silent for a second, listening to what the figure had to say.

"Sadly, all of us three are not fond of ghost." she said with a small smirk, walking over to Veran and getting a bit closer to him. 

[Stardustblade358 806]

The figure rubbed his head as he stood up. "They didn't cause any trouble. They just needed a place to stay so they stayed here. Though..."The figure muttered as he blinked a few times. "You're the first people to have come visit this place without running off crying or wetting their pants!"The figure said as he walked over to Veran and 'oohed' at him. "And this one's really tough! He even made the ghosts run! What is he? What training he has? Is he inhuman? I don't see any stitches on him."The figure said as he walked around Veran,making sure that he didn't touch him,but looking around for any scars or numbers on his skin. "You weren't an experiment by Undertaker too,by any chance?"The figure asked as he took a few steps back. "Undertaker?"Alice asked curiously. "You know,that one Grim Reaper. He's the one that made me,or revived me? I don't know which would be the right term."The figure muttered. "Just what the hell are you? You look like a freak with that dispatched skin."Alice said pointing at his arms. The figure looked down at his arms. "Oh,I was torn up pretty badly I think. I think the wolf ate half of me."The figure muttered. "Enough with your confusing confessions! Tell us your name!"Alice demanded as she stomped her foot. "Oh you're right. That's rude of me isn't it. Even though it's you guys that entered into my home."The figure said. "YOUR home?"Alice asked as she looked around. "This place has been abandoned for years?" "You're right. Nothing 100% human lives here. However there's a few rats,some cats,ghosts,and then there's me."The figure said as he took off his cloak. "My name is Lorenzo Giest. I'm Giest's Town's one and only unknown bizarre doll. Though not many people know I exist."Lorenzo chuckled to himself as he posed,giving off his playful aura. Just behind him on the top of the stairs a painting of Lorenzo and his mother could be seen. From the painting to the real person,they looked identical,only varying in the stitches and that one of his eyes was now a sapphire. Alice yelped a bit as she hid behind Veran. "M-MONSTER!" "I know I know I'm not very handsome but give me a break,I do my hair every morning and bathe in the river."

Name: Lorenzo Giest

Age: 19 (Physically. In reality he would be over 50 years old.)

Gender: Male

Appearance:

 

 

Biography:

 

Son to a widowed woman who lived in Giest Village,owning Giest Manor. Lorenzo took care of his mother after his father passed away,leaving them the manor and fortune. Together the two of them shared a passion for gardening and flowers. One afternoon while working in the garden by himself,Lorenzo was attacked by a gigantic beast; a wolf (later to be comfirmed by Undertaker to be a werewolf). The wolf bit and scratched Lorenzo,tearing him and his flesh appart as he screamed. The attack lasted for about 10 minutes until a staff member used a gun to shoot the wolf right on the head multiple times,killing it eventually. By the time Lorenzo was brought back inside,he was disfigured with missing pieces of skin and eventually died of bloodloss,his blood bathing his bed in red. His mother locked herself in the room with the corpse where she grieved for days and nights until the man by the name of Undertaker came and offered her that he could bring Lorenzo back if he allowed him to experiment with the body. In desperation,she agreed. Undertaker experimented,fixing the body by using reminants of skin from other freshly deseased people to make him whole again (however for his right eye he used a saphire stone). Using the same technique,but with a bit of alteration,he made Lorenzo into a Bizarre Doll,adding fake records to his cinematic record along with Lorenzo's soul,which he had ended up stealing back for the experiment. It was a success,as Lorenzo awoke recognizing his mother,despite looking like a sown up doll. Pleased with his result,the mysterious Undertaker left. His mother was happy as she could be,but she knew that if anyone were to find out that her son had come back to life after days of death,they would end up killing him again for being a monster. She fired everyone from her staff as she was left to live alone with Lorenzo in isolation within the manor. However because of the cinematic records being fake,Lorenzo was to never age and live until he was killed again. So Lorenzo lived with his mother,taking care of her until the day she died of old age,where he took it upon himself to bury her in the cemetery next to her husband at night where no one would see him. Afraid how the world would perceive him,as the village was a rather superstisious place,he decided to live in solitude and peace within the manor where he wouldn't scare or affect anyone.

 

Optional Weapon: None

Anything Else:

 

 

-Due to become a Bizarre Doll,he has gained enhanced senses and inhuman strength

-He can sleep,eat,shower,and even dream,but due to the endless fake cinematic record,he cannot die of natural causes,but can die of being murdered.

-He loves sweets

[Lady Aleister 1,677]

"So...Lorenzo. We came here to investigate children turning up with no heads. Can you give us a reason for this?" Aya asked calmly, looking at the bizarre doll.

So someone like Marco is the Undertaker.

"This Undertaker guy sounds crazy..." She muttered.

[Stardustblade358 806]

Lorenzo jumped a bit back to the mention. "No heads?!"Lorenzo asked,almost in disbelief. "No heads. Half eaten too."Alice muttered. Lorenzo thought for a but. Then figuring out why they were here,he quickly shook his head. "I haven't heard of anything like that happening. The only time I step outside this house is to bathe in the river that's down the hill. But other than that I've forbidden myself from getting close to the town. I know that the moment humans see me they'll think of me as a monster and chase me down like in that one book."Lorenzo said as he played with his fingers and looked up at the three. "This is the first time I've heard of people disappearing or being found without heads or eaten. Or anything at all. But...I have nothing to do with it."Lorenzo said as he got a hand where his heart would be. "I swear to you I haven't done anything. But if you don't believe me you can smell my breath! I don't think I smell like human." "No thank you that's disgusting."Alice sneered. "How can we believe something that isn't meant to even still be alive apparently? You could be lying. All the people of the village say that you're the one responsible,atleast,whatever they think lives here is."Alice hissed. "But I promise I haven't done anything!" "Tell it to the judge!"Alice growled. Not only was she disturbed by Lorenzo's appearance,but his apparent existence seemed to tick a nerve. "I would never hurt a child,never of less eat one. They most likely taste terrible anyways."Lorenzo blehed,as it seemed he was a one of a kind bizarre doll. "Veran,kick the truth out of him."Alice said as she pushed Veran closer to Lorenzo.

[Lady Aleister 1,677]

"Don't touch my butler Alice. You can't get one as good as him." Aya demanded, pulling Alice away from her butler.

Aya stepped forwards, grabbing Lorenzo by his cloak and pulling him towards Aya's eye level.

"I am a child, so If I stay here for tonight with you, you won't eat me?" She asked, looking at Veran and Alice.

"Alone." She said rather heartlessly.

Aya however knew that Veran would definitely watch over her from another form.

(Kinda like how Sebastian turned into a cat in the first season of the anime)

[Stardustblade358 806]

Both Lorenzo and Alice's eyes widened. "EH?!"The two complained in union. "B-But milady! He could be a pedophile for all we know!"Alice said. "Hey! I'm not a pedophile! I was engaged once!"Lorenzo said waving his arm as he looked down at Aya. "Wait...so...you're staying?"Lorenzo asked as he felt blood go up his cheeks. "Gaw! I haven't had guests in a while though! I should go ahead and prepare a bed for you,and I hope you like fruits because I usually eat whatever the backyard trees end up giving me."Lorenzo said with a slight blush as he looked up at Veran. Seeing how he had defeated the ghosts of the manor,Veran to Lorenzo was a terrifying warrior of the underworld like in those novels that his father used to read for him before he went to bed. Like one of the many demons of Dante's inferno. A wolf in sheep's skin  maybe? He would have to guess later. Regardless,he felt nervous as he chuckled nervously. "I agree to the terms. I'll demonstrate that I don't eat any children! By tomorrow morning Aya will be safe and sound and ready to go!"Lorenzo said with a nervous laughter. Alice gritted her teeth. "If we see a single scratch on lady Aya I will rip your skins one by one!"Alice hissed. "B-But they're attached!" "Who cares?!" "Fine fine do what you want. But I assure you that you two can stay also if you want and not a single bad thing will happen!"Lorenzo promised as he held out his pinky finger. "Hm?"Lorenzo muttered as he saw something sitting on Alice's head. "Jellal. Get down from there."Lorenzo said. Alice followed Lorenzo's gaze as she felt her head. It was hairy. She felt legs. A spider. She screamed as she flailed her arms around. "KILL IT KILL IT!"Alice yelled freaking out. How she detested spiders. The spider freaked out before jumping off Alice's head and running up to Lorenzo,who quickly scooped it up in his hands. "Don't hurt him. He just wanted to say hello. This little guy is the reason we don't have that many insects in the house despite its state."Lorenzo said smiling. "This one's Jellal."Lorenzo smiled as the spider crawled around its pal,only having Alice squirm in disgust. "OH MY GOSH KILL IT." "No!" Lorenzo quickly went on the defensive. "No one hurts Jellal,nor Aiko,nor Alejandro,nor Hime,even though she's a Venezuelan Poodle Moth!" This would be an interesting night.

Beware spiders and a poodle moth ahoy:

 

 

Jellal (Male)

Hime (Female)

 

Alejandro (Male)

[Lady Aleister 1,677]

"A moth?" Aya asked, looking at Lorenzo with a sparkle in her eyes.

"I used to collect dead ones when I was a kid." she said with a smile, looking at the spider.

Aya was not fond of spiders, but she could deal with the moths. She just hopped the cats that were at this mansion didn't find her in the night. 

[Silvia Kuroi 1,480]

Veran smiled, and bowed to his Lady. Leave it to Aya to always have a plan. If anything, she was often more ready for anything than even Veran was. His smile never wavered as he stood straight, an arm clasped over his chest, "I shall allow this. But know this, I am always watching m'lady. Never once do I not know of her well-being. If anyone does so much as touch her, you will find your fingers missing before your brain can even send the impulse telling your arm to move."

[Stardustblade358 806]

Lorenzo squeaked out of fear as he bowed at Veran's feet. "She will not be hurt,sir!"Lorenzo squeaked in fear. Hime the poodle moth started to fly around Aya and landed on her head. Lorenzo stood back up. "Hime likes you,as long as you don't kill her to add her to your collection,everything should be great,haha..."Lorenzo laughed nervously. It would be the first time he would have a human guest. "Ah are you hungry Aya! We should be able to have dinner. Fruits and fruits and fruits~"Lorenzo squealed. While Alejandro,Aiko and Jellal crawled around their friend Lorenzo,he looked over at Alice who was glaring. "I'm going to check on the horses then."Alice said puffing her chest before turning around with a 'hmph!'. "Horses?! I haven't rode a horse in years! Not since the incident. After that mother forbid me from exiting the manor. I think it's for the best too. You guys are reacting nicely. But I think anyone else would be screaming and trying to kill me."Lorenzo smiled as he gave a bow to Veran and Alice. "She's in good hands."Lorenzo assured. He noticed the sun started to set. "I better get candles going. I only use candles in certain rooms,too much light will attract unwanted attention from the town."Lorenzo smiled. Alice looked over at Aya and then back Veran. "I'll go check on the horses and so on. Goodbye,Veran,lady Aya." With that Alice walked away. Lorenzo puffed his cheeks. "How rude she is."Lorenzo hissed as he turned. "Make yourself at home Aya."Lorenzo said as he quickly got a candle and turned it on,handing it to Aya. "Lead your way around. Dinner will be in the dinning hall right through that door."Lorenzo said as he pointed at a pair of double doors between the staircases on the bottom. "I'm going to get us food and food for the cats. If I give them food they won't meow at night."Lorenzo smiled as the spiders ran off. "Check your webs for food! And no messing up each other's webs!"Lorenzo called as he started to walk,Hime leaving Aya's head as it started to fly around her instead. This was the daily life for over 50 years for Lorenzo. Talking to spiders,a poodle moth,ghosts,and a few cats.

[Lady Aleister 1,677]

"This guy is crazy." Aya whispered to herself.

She then looked over at Veran who still hasn't left.

"Hey Veran, you won't mind following me, right? You know I hate to be alone, plus this place is rather spooky." she said seriously.

Aya looked at the candles in her hand, hoping wax didn't end up landing on her somehow. This manor was huge, and if Lorenzo was lying, the kids would be somewhere in this place. 

[Silvia Kuroi 1,480]

As Veran had done before to tease her, he leaned down to kiss her forehead. He ruffled her hair with a sly grin.

"As I have already said, I am always aware of your well-being. I shall be nearby, in a different form, my lady. Do not fret, for I will be close in the event some harm comes to you." Veran said, giving a proper bow this time.

[Stardustblade358 806]

Lorenzo hadn't had guests over in over a few decades,but he still remembered his manners of when he was younger. Not having servants he had learned everything there was to do himself and how to it properly and easy. Using a pocket knife he quickly went to the backyard of the manor and cut up a few of the colorful flowers he had kept growing over the past years. Gardening was one of the few things that truly kept him busy. He couldn't decide on a specific color so he ended up picking up different colored flowers and wrapping them up together. He walked back inside and cleaned up one of the flower vases,throwing away the old flowers before settling the new flowers in the vase and settling the vase in the middle of the dinning table,making it a nice centerpiece. Besides the dinning room through two pairs of doors rested the kitchen. It wasn't the highest end kitchen but it was kept clean by both Lorenzo and the spiders,who were nice enough to eat up any flies and insects that tried to get into the food. Along with eating insects that would try to get into the trees outside,which was an advantage. He walked outside again with a large basket as he picked up from his eatable garden. Apples, pears, cherries, blueberries, rasberries, strawberries, blackcurrants, gooseberries, plums, damsons, rhubarb, peach, grapes, blackberries, redcurrants; learning to depend on himself he learned quick. Walking back inside he washed the fruits gently to get any dirt off them with some clean water from the river down the hill. He gathered up different plates and settled them all around the table. A large plate filled with blackcurrants mixed with blueberries,strawberries,rasberries,gooseberries,damsons,blackberries,redcurrants,and cherries. Making it a guess of what kind of delicious flavor would they taste once they took a bite out of it. He served up a basket of plums. A large platter with sliced up apples,pears,and peaches and organized in a symmetrical fashion. With a plate filled with redcurrant jelly he had multiple plates surround it filled with sliced up rhubarb to dip in the redcurrant jelly. He set up large spoons by each of the plates which surrounded the center of the table and then settled more delicate plates on the edges of the tables along with polished silverwear and a few mismatched tea cups. Over the years he had broken a few,but he wasn't one to go out and buy a new set just because it mismatched. Settling some old fashioned candle sticks around the table for light he lighted them up,giving a dim yet earie atmosphere with the old manor. He smiled and clapped his hands. "Dinner is served!" There was no meat in this dinner. But hopefully it would be enough to fill a stomach.

 

...

 

Alice headed back into the town,checking up on the horses. They were fine. Rather calm and eating happily some carrots and feed. "Oi,you're the one with the detective right?" Alice turned to see Sarka,the mayor of the town. "Yes?"Alice asked. "Oh,you shouldn't stay outside. Not only is it dangerous. You could catch a cold. Come on,follow me to the inn and I'll offer you up some food and drinks. My treat."Sarka offered. Alice stared and then heard her rumbling stomach. "...I guess it wouldn't hurt."Alice smiled a bit at the young looking Sarka. "Wonderful,come along dear."Sarka said as he took Alice's hand and the two headed inside the inn.

[Lady Aleister 1,677]

Aya about hit Veran as soon as he kissed her forehead again.

"Well see you later, I guess." she muttered, beginning to walk off. Aya wondered around the manor for a while, then hearing stirring and Lorenzo say "Dinner is Served".

Aya found the dining hall and walked in, sitting down at a seat and placing the candles at a table. She didn't mind the lack of meat, everything looked good.

"Thank you Lorenzo for sharing your garden with me." she said with a smile.

The only things she would really eat out of this dinner were: blueberries, strawberries, raspberries, gooseberries, maybe some damsons just because of the color, black berries, and maybe some cherries. 

Of course Aya would be eating the apples and pears, but she hated peaches. 

[Stardustblade358 806]

Lorenzo smiled as he served himself up a plate of all of the types of fruits and ate. Settling one little piece of rasberry on the table apart from the rest for Hime to nom on as a moth. He loved fruits. After eating only fruits for over 50 years who wouldn't. He especially loved the rassberies. Those were his favorites. But he loved them all equally. He licked his lips. "How sweet."He muttered under his breath. "Meow." It was time. Lorezo shoved the rest of the plate into his mouth and ate it all up before standing up and getting a glove on. "Coming,coming."He said casually as he walked over to a box filled with ice and opened it,taking out a fish he had fished out of the river this morning. Without any utenciles to cook it the only one who could eat this fish would be the cats since they ate it raw. Using an isolated knife he chopped up the fish into bits and pieces and taking out any bones,letting the blood go down the drain,which would explain why the drain was bloody in the first place. Fishy blood. Serving it up on a already blood stained plate he threw away the glove and washed the knife. He picked up the plate and opened a window from the kitchen and bent over,settling a plate down right outside the kitchen window. A few cats already in waiting. "Here you go. I even left the eyes for you this time."Lorenzo said casually as he stood back up and closed the window,the cats resuming to eat up. "I'll go get your bedroom ready."Lorenzo said with a smile as he wondered off to the second floor and went ahead to prepare the bedroom. He decided to let Aya sleep in the bedroom he used more frequently because it wasn't as dusty as the rest,and was the one bedroom he cleaned constantly. He changed the bedsheets and pillows into fresh ones as he opened the usually closed curtains to leave some moonlight in. He could see Jellal walking across the wall. "Jellal. A guest is sleeping here. No waking them up how you do to me ok?"Lorenzo chuckled as the spider crawled to his arm and tickled him in delight.

 

...

 

"Thank you very much for the food and drink."Alice said with a smile as she ate and drank. "No problem. We need all the help we can get. Having detectives around investigating. This is the least we can do."Sarka smiled as she chuckled. "Your master must be a very intelligent young man."Sarka though. Alice glanced up. "Oh you must've been confused for Veran. That's her butler."Alice explained. "So that means,that cute little girl I saw earlier was the detective?!" "I guess so. She's my lady." "How astonishing! So young and so impressive!"Sarka seemed to clap in delight and excitement. Alice took another sip of her drink and suddenly felt a pain shoot up her back and straight to her head. She groaned and suddenly gripped her head. "Are you alright my dear?"Sarka asked. "Y-Yes,just a sudden headache."Alice assured as she looked around as the pain then moved to her abdomen. "So your lady and this Veran butler went to the manor?"Sarka asked. "Yeah..."Alice muttered,feeling dizzy. "Maybe you ate too much?"Sarka asked. "Could be..."Alice muttered as she suddenly felt all energy in her body leave her,only being able to lay down against the bar. "Ah you must be tired. Don't worry I'll have someone take you to your room."Sarka assured as she clapped her hands and someone picked up Alice before throwing her over the shoulder. Sarka seemed to smile as she held a radiant pink flower by her side. An Azalea plant,who's poison could cause sypmtoms varying from running nose to vomiting. "Don't worry Alice,everything will be alright. You and your lady and Butler will simply be stored up...we need all the meat we can get our hands on." And so Alice blacked out.

[Lady Aleister 1,677]

Aya sneezed as soon as Lorenzo fed the cats. She truly hated animals. Most of them at least.

She began to eat her proportion of food, leaving half the plate left. Aya shook...this place was frightening alone, and freezing. It was only September, why was it getting so cold?!

Aya stood, walking out of the dining hall and starting to try and find her room for the night.

[Stardustblade358 806]

Lorenzo quickly waved Aya down the hallway. "Over here,Aya! I set up a bedroom for you!"Lorenzo said as he opened the door and showed her in. It was a normal looking room. Dust was cleaned off. The windows seemed a bit tinted due to the old age,but let the moonlight in regardless. "Hopefully this will be comfortable enough for the night. Sorry the sheets aren't the prettiest either. They're very old fashioned but they still work in warming up at night."Lorenzo chuckled at himself as he scratched his cheek. "If you need anything just give a call. If you're going to explore around watch your step. Some wooden steps are rather old and might end up giving in at any moment."Lorenzo explained as Jellal rested on his head. Lorenzo gave a small bow. "I'll leave you to rest,milady. I'm going to put away the food and plates."Lorenzo said as he walked back downstairs,being followed by his fellow spiders and poodle moth. For being a bizarre doll he was the most bizarre of them all. Almost being 100% human if it weren't for the fact that he looked like a living rag doll.

 

...

 

Sarka glanced over at the group of farmers. "Alright you guys. You heard Alice. The girl is at the abandoned manor with her butler. Bring those two alive if possible. If you have to kill one of them do make sure to not make much of a mess. We need to prepare the body for the meal afterwards."Sarka ordered as the men took out their guns and pitchforks along with lanterns. Sarka smiled. "We will finally have our food for the year."Sarka hissed as she pointed at the manor outside the window. "Now go! Bring me those two!"Sarka ordered as the group of around 30 men made their way to the manor to bring Aya and Veran,thinking that they were mere mortals. Much to their surprise when they find out who exactly they were dealing with.

[Lady Aleister 1,677]

Aya climbed into her bed and lay in silence, the bed was extremely uncomfortable and it was oddly quiet in the manor.

"Veran, show yourself." Aya demanded, still staying silent.

[Silvia Kuroi 1,480]

A deep sigh was heard from some corner, as a raven fluttered from the shadows. It landed, and amongst the landing the raven shifted from an avian form to the familiar butler. "Yes, my lady?" He asked, hand on his chest as he bowed, "What is it that you require of me?"

He glanced up at her. She seemed bored, and very uncomfortable. Already he got an idea of what her request would be.

[Lady Aleister 1,677]

"I want to go home." Aya said simply, looking at Veran, a cold look in her eyes.

"Also why a raven? You could have been a rat or something to blend in with this cursed house." she asked rather bluntly.

She sat up, not even in any night clothes.

"Also turn around, I am taking this stupid dress off and keeping this jacket on."

 

Aya got out of the bed, facing away from Veran and taking off the jacket, keeping her underclothes on, and buttoning her jacket back on as her night clothes. She took of her eye-patch, then laying splat down on the bed.

Veran let out a sigh and turned around, then he began to explain:

"It is easy to hide in a small form. I debated being a feline, but I am aware m'lady is allergic to them. Rats are disgusting, and not fit for myself. So a raven it was. Nevermore, as they say."

When he felt Aya was finished, he turned his head back with a sinister smile, "Anyways, are you positive you wish to leave? I mean, this place is just so great!"
