Light To My Darkness {Black Butler Sebastian X Elizabeth Story}

Chapter 11

The rest of the night was a blur for Elizabeth. She didn't remember anything after them kissing. She didn't know if it was a dream or real. Should she ask? She was awoken by sunshine from her curtains being open by Sebastian. He had the same smile that he also greeted her with. He had a small cart, with her tea and newspaper ready for her morning to get started. She took her tea and started to sip it while looking at the newspaper. She seems there wasn't anything interesting, so she got out of bed and got ready for the day. Sebastian had his blindfold on, put on her corset, her dress was baby blue with black details. She had some black heeled shoes; her hair was naturally up in her twin drills.

She headed down to the table where her breakfast was waiting for her, steam still coming off meaning it was fresh. "Today for breakfast is scramble eggs, raspberries with blackberries, smoked maple bacon and fresh squeeze orange juice as a drink." Sebastian stated as she tastes her bacon which tasted amazing. As she ate her breakfast so many things ran through her head, was he going to act like nothing happened? After a delicious breakfast, she got up turned to Sebastian, "I'm going to head to the library to read some books, I know we recently got some new ones." She said, she escaped the kind of awkward moment, once she entered the library with the doors closing behind her, she sighed in relief.

She grabs the book of the creature she was reading about earlier; it caught her eye but anything like that would. The cover of the book was worn out, slight torn, the pages that once were white now yellow, words once were bright bold, faded to gray. Looks like the book has been through a lot and very old. She was cautious with it, afraid of mishandling it would fall apart. The spine of the book was very fragile, the brown was all dusty like it's been in an attic for years. She got the small round table and moved her chair close to it, she carefully layed the book on the table and carefully opened it.

The first page was blank, she flipped to the next page, in faded letters it said,

"THIS BOOK BELONGS TO ___S_IL___"

"Who is sil?" She whispered to herself, she flipped through the pages, each page had incredible drawings of many interesting animals. Some animals she never seen or heard of most seemed just a creature that didn't even look like anything, some were cute, some she realized what they were. One creature she didn't recognized, looked very similar to the one they call griffin, but it wasn't at the same time. Griffin looked more eagle like, this looked more dog like. She couldn't put her finger on it, it had chicken legs, but they were tall and thicker than actual chickens. Its body was long like a cat, had a tail like a cat but its whole body was covered in feathers. It also had wings; they were small, didn't look big enough to carry him. He had cat like ears, but small horns on his head as well, she the name was faded out so bad, she couldn't even make it out. There was a saying under it, the one thing she could see.

"Deep in the Leafs, a village that no one seeks,

A soul has been chosen not by choice,

Travel far and wide, you see the tower,

Where he travels to the one, 

The one who has the true power,

But beware of the many,

They lurk in the shadows."

She closed the book, trying to figure the riddle or saying out, the one who has true power? What does it mean? She takes the tattered book, as soon as she lifts the book, she small piece of paper that was in the back of the book falls the ground. She keeps the book in her hand as she crouches down to pick up the small piece of paper, she unfolds it, and to her amazement, it showed a whole map of how to get there. Her eyes light up, she folded it back up, grabbed the book, rushed out of the room looking for Sebastian. Maybe, just maybe, he can take her there and she can just see one of the creature that caught her eye.
