"I can't believe it..." I whispered as I gazed upon my previous home. It was fully restored and it looked even better than it had ever been when he was head of the mansion. It still held the same classical victorian look, but it now included several different colored banners hung outside on the walls. Most were bright blue, but there was an occasional pink banner.

"Well, we know for sure that she's here. The pink proves it."

"My lord, it's not my place to ask, but are you sure your ready to confront her? Have you even thought of her feelings in all of this? How would you feel if your missing fiancé, that lied to you no less, suddenly reappeared?" Sebastian asked me, his gaze filled with pity.

"Your right. It's not your place to ask, Sebastian, but I already know that she might think ill of me now, but I am willing to do anything to make her smile," I stated with confidence. I finally worked up the courage to start walking forward. Instead of having my butler knock on the large door, I did it myself.

"I find it amusing that you now have to knock on a door that is still technically yours, my lord."

"Oh shut up, Sebastian." I wave him off, but I soon hear a loud rumbling. I look to the door, but I am suddenly blown back by the swinging door. Sebastian, as expected, caught me in mid air. I coughed from all of the dirt and debris, and looked up, only to be greeted by a sight I thought I would never see again.

"Finny?! Mey Rin? Bard? What the bloody hell are you doing here?!" I yell, my eyes, along with Sebastian's, wide in surprise.

"Ciel?!" They all screamed at once.

"So it is true! Both of you really were demons!" Yelled Bardory, his cigarette hanging out of his smirking mouth.

"What do you mean "were"? We still are," replied Sebastian while letting his eyes glow demonic pink as proof. In response, Mey Rin fainted from her nose bleed. Finny then turned to us.

"I can't believe it! We all missed you so much," he cried as his eyes started to water. He lunged at us and trapped us in his strong hug, wailing the entire time.

"Let me go! You didn't answer my question. How are you guys still here? Last time I checked, you all were still human." Mey Rin recovered from her nose bleed and started to talk.

"Yes indeed, we were humans, but when Lady Elizabeth came upon us still living in the abandoned manor, she took us in! She let us keep our jobs and she made us demons, along with her, to help keep the mansion in tip top shape for eternity, yes she did."

"I assume you already know about Lady Elizabeth being a demon right?" Finny asked.

"Well, no I didn't. If I did, I would have come back sooner," I replied.

"Awe! So you do still have feeling for your long lost fiancé?" He questioned. All of my previous servants looked at me with big eyes, eagerly awaiting my reply.

"Of course I do, " I reply without hesitation. "I have always loved my dear Lizzie." As expected, they all squealed. I even caught the corners of Sebastian's lips curling up slightly.

"Tch. Whatever, where is she now?"

"She's away on business. A new mission I believe," answered Bard.

"Very well. I suppose we'll have to wait." The servants lead us into the newly refurbished manor to await Elizabeth's return.
