Ember's POV

I sighed once more and lazily glanced out the window. We had been in the carriage for over an hour and I was becoming restless, I was never good with staying in one place for to long. Darcy glanced at me with a questioning look in her eyes.

I reached up my hand and scratched the back on my ear with my fingers. Darcy nodded, getting my message, that was the sign for ' I am bored. She repeated the action and we went on. I ballad up one hand in a fist, then clicked my eyes to Ciel, who was staring out the window, not noticing us. She nodded, then Darcy clicked the tip of her two thumb nails nogether and glanced at Sebastian, who was staring strait ahead, not noticing or not caring about what we where doing. I had called Ciel annoying and she called Sebastian weird.

I resited the urge to smile, I didn't like smiling, it made me feel uncomfortable, like there was something wrong with how my face appeared to others, I hated it. The carriage came to a stop, lurching my body forward at the sudden halt.

Sebastian stood from his seat and made his way over the the door, gripping the handle with he gloves hand. He pushed it open and stepped out, waiting patiently for Ciel who stood up from he seat not but a moment later. He took his sweet time exiting the carriage.

Darcy stood up from her seat, stepping onto the gravel quickly and I stood up after her. She waited at the side of the stairs, her arms crodssed behind the silk of her dress. I stepped on the small stair the hung just below the carriage door, then hopped slightly onto the ground.

Ciel and Sebastian where ahead of us, heading down a cobbke stone path that went through an old rested gate and lead to an eerie building. It was tall, made completely out of metal, with a crimson, wooden sign that was handing my only one nail was above the door that was made of tightly packed bricks and was stained the color of red. The night wind howled and rustled the leaves of the one tree just past the large, rested gates.

Darcy and I started forward, walking side by side. We stopped behind Ciel, who was standing a few feet away from the door.

Sebastian left his side and walked up to the door, raising his left foot he brought it towards the door and his black shoes slammed into the brick, knocking the door down so that in fell in one piece, inside on the building.

Sebastian stepped to the side and let Ciel pass him, then went to walk slightly behind him on his right. I made my way inside the building, Darcy walking next to me, we stepped over the door and began to look around. Inside it was a stifening silence, not a single sound was made other than the footsteps of Ciel, Sebastian, Darcy and I. Metal machines muttered the inside, some I reconized a bit but some that were foreign to me. They where all covered in rust, obviously they had not been used in a long time.

A loud bang of something hitting one of the many metal machines made us all look over to the scourse of the noise. Just when I turned a pice of white fabic caught my eyes as it quickly disappeared behind a large cylinder shaped container that reached the ceiling.

"Darcy!" I yelled and within a second she ran off, me following just behind her. She was still faster than me but with my inhuman speed I could keep up just fine. We both skidded to a stop once we rounded the corner, Sebastian and Ciel just now running up behind us.

A man in a white cloak stood at the entrance of something I could recognize, a meat grinder. I could not get any more deatails on him before he jumped into the machine and was gone. Just a second later I realized it was off and that he was making his escape.

Ciel realized this as well and was about to tell Sebastian to go after him before I beat him to the punch.

"Darcy, run aroud and cut him off, NOW!" I roared in frustration, angry that i let him even get past me. She dashed off, jumping over a few crates and running behind another large container, identical to the other one I had seen.

A few second later a heard grunting and the soud of a body hitting a solid object.

I smirked and readjusted my hood. This otta be fun.
