Claire POV

Flash back

        "Darlings, go play while us adults talk business."

        "Okay Momma!" My five year old self exclaims.

        "C'mon Claire!" My ten year old brother calls.

        We go to my room, and Sam says, "Hey Claire, we always play my games, so let's play with your dolls instead."

        I grin happily and hand him my favorite doll, Catherine. He knows she is my favorite because I take her everywhere I go. All of my dolls are expensive Funtom China dolls.

        Sam inspects her face for a few moments, and then throws her to the ground. Catherine's head shatters into a million tiny shards. He repeats this process with my nine remaining dolls. Before he is done, I am little more than a sobbing heap on the floor.

        "Oi, Claire, get up!"

        I comply, still crying. Sam proceeds to call me names, hit and kick me, and pull my hair.

Back to present.

        'Oh shit, Oh shit, Oh shit...'

        "Mistress,"

        "Yeah? Oh, Kalien, you're back."

        "Yes ma'am. Also, you're scaring the other servants, mi'lady."

         I look over to see; Bard awkwardly scratching his head, Mey-Rin mumbling to herself, and Finny curled up in a ball, gently rocking back and forth.

        "Don't you all have jobs to do?"

        "Yes ma'am!"

        They all scurry off to do who knows what.

        "Kalien, why does he suddenly care?"

        "Well, mi'lady, he might feel guilty about your relationship as children, or perhaps after your parents deaths, he feels obligated to ensure your well being."

          "Perhaps... Can you tell what's going on in there?"

        "No ma'am. Sebastian is blocking it."

        "Oh my god, what if he's torturing him?!"

        "Who would be torturing who?"

        "Either way! I can see both in either position! Or what if Sam is threatening Ciel?! Or Ciel is using his position as the Queen's dog to intimidate Sam?!"

        Precisely at that moment both men exited the room smirking.

        "Do I even want to know what happened in there?"

        "Probably not, Claire." They answered simultaneously.
