"Wolf!" Sullivan called out to the man who was currently bleeding out on the train. "La...dy...? I.. I am-" He tried speaking but was cut off by her. "Don't talk!" "Mr. Wolfram. A butler isn't allowed to die before their master. This is what my senior told me." Sebastian repeated as your brother began issuing orders. "Sebastian, heat a knife until it becomes red. Mey-Rin! Get all the cloth and water you can!" Just as he said that they set out to grab the supplies as you gathered as much cloth as you could.

You then placed it in his mouth so he wouldn't bite his tongue and everyone started getting ready. "Hold him down." You ordered as Sebastian grabbed the mans shoulders firmly. "No.. no Wolf.. don't die!" Sullivan cried as she held the mans hand, you grit your teeth and frowned before grabbing the girl by her jaw. "Get a hold of yourself!" You shouted as everyone looked at you surprised. "You said it yourself, that your duty as the green witch was to protect your villagers, didn't you?! He's the only one left! In the external world there are no magic or miracles. You have to save him with your own hands!" You told her as Ciel placed the heated up knife in her hands.

She then gripped it tightly before turning to the man. "Wolf. If you die now, I will never forgive you!" She shouted as the man's eyes widened before accepting what was to come as the sound of skin hissing went through the air.

"He stopped bleeding. If he can get proper care he will probably be fine." Sebastian reassured before placing a hand on Sullivan's back. "You carried out your job perfectly, lady." He praised her as she was panting and dropped the knife with blood soaking her hands, she then doubled over the man crying her eyes out as the servants comforted her. "No, we can't take him to a hospital. Mr. Diedrich, give us a place to hide." You ordered the man who frowned. "You act just like your father! I bet saying 'no' will serve nothing." He retorted as you smiled at the man with a wave. "Thank you~." You sung out before stepping over to your brother.

"I was surprised that you ordered me to pick him up, master, mistress." Sebastian pointed out as he placed a cloak on you and your brother. "In the external world there are monsters worse than werewolves. She'll need someone to look after her." Your brother replied after snacking his teeth. "Plus, she's our insurance. So we don't get targeted for knowing too much." You added as the man chuckled. "I see. However, why have insurance when you have me? You're worriers master, mistress." He commented as your brother huffed out a small laugh. "Don't kid me. You're the one we can trust the least."

"Welcome home, lord Diedrich. Oh dear... You must've caused some mischief." Heinrich, Diedrich's butler commented after seeing how battered everyone was. "Heinrich, call a doctor. And prepare baths." The man immediately ordered as the butler bowed. "Yes sir." "It's been a long time." Tanaka said as he greeted the butler with a smile. "Oh! This feels nostalgic! Then I suppose they must be..." Heinrich smiled before turning to the two of you. "He's Phantomhive's son and little girl." Diedrich informed as the man bowed with a hand on his chest.

"I'm honored to meet you, Earl Phantomhive, countess Phantomhive." Heinrich greeted properly as you smiled and placed a had on your brothers arm. "Thank you very much for your hard work. We appreciate it greatly." You said in a sugarcoated tone as the man lightly laughed. "You do remind me of your predecessor." The man told your brother as he tried covering the dress we was still wearing. "Awkward to hear that when I'm wearing this..." He trailed off as the man turned his head to you. "It's so good to know that you've grown into such a graceful and strong young lady. Lord Diedrich was almost thrilled when he received a letter that the mistress had you, he had us immediately get as much gifts as he could fit in the carriage!" He revealed as the man simply huffed out.

"Everyone came with gifts when she had the lady, I had to act accordingly." He excused as you smiled. "What a kind man, Mr. Diedrich! I never knew that!" You teased the man as he turned his head. "You two go take your baths! The servants already took the man to a separate room to get looked at by a doctor, you two better be off." He ordered as you and your brother two shared smirks before walking off.

"Lady Y/n! We're here to bathe you!" A handful of maids informed as they were already inside the bathroom waiting for you. "Goodness! All of you... Bathe me?" You asked as they nodded. "Up and at 'em, my lady! You can't wash up in your clothes, now can you?" A maid asked as she tugged at your top. "Right, but before we begin, I have a wound on my back that isn't all that much healed, could you possibly avoid that area?" You asked as you remembered the mark on your back. "Oh no! You poor thing! Absolutely, we'll leave it to the doctor to take care of that, but for now, just relax!" Another reassured as they began to help you out of your clothes and into the water.

They scrubbed and washed at different part of your body as there was dirt all over. They eventually finished as they began to dry you. "Such healthy skin! There's no scar in sight!" A maid pointed out as they were tightening a corset on you. "They really clean you well, huh? There was hardly any dead skin to scrub off! Just dirt!" Another commented as they put a full button up dress on you. "Please, you're too kind! I just wasn't allowed to play rough when I was little, the quickest way for me to avoid any scratches or injuries of the sort. It was also a good way for me to practice etiquette early." You explained with a smile as they began to brush your hair and mess with it as they saw fit.

"Really?! They really must have paid attention then!" One commented as they simply brushed your hair back and tied a scarf behind your ears to hold back any stray hairs and left the rest of your hair down. "Well then, we're all done here, lady Y/n. Do as you wish, call any of us if you need anything!" A maid smiled as they all lined up and bowed while you smiled. "Thank you all very much for your work, I'll see you guys soon." You said with a wave before leaving the bathroom and heading to where Diedrich and your brother were. "I should've just had Mey-Rin wash me." You muttered with gritted teeth as you rolled up your sleeves and wiped your arms using the shawl placed at your elbows.

"The undertaker? He came here a while ago." Diedrich informed as he took a bite of a sandwich. "Huh?! What was he here for?!" You exclaimed as your brother and Sebastian shared the same look of surprise. "He said he had something to do in France and then stopped by. I didn't know he was involved in the sinking of that transatlantic." Diedrich confirmed as Sebastian raised a brow. "France?" You and your brother looked back at the man before your brother asked Diedrich another question. "Do you know where he is now?" He asked as the man placed a hand on his chin. "I have no idea. However... He said 'The Earl of Phantomhive is still with us, after all'." He repeated as you all stayed silent. "'Still with us?'" Sebastian repeated in a questioning tone.

Diedrich huffed and seemed to not pay any mind to how deep the undertakers words were. "He's always talking nonsense. So I didn't really pay any attention to what he said." He replied as you looked down at the ground with a wide gaze and your hands shaking as they gripped onto your dress tightly, you grew tense immediately as your brother looked down at the ring on his thumb and the one on your middle finger. "Does he mean us...? Or..."
