Ciel's P.O.V.
(Y/n) only shows up on occasions and only in my dreams. She's been doing this for months now and it's driving me mad. Lady Elizabeth is dying slowly and doctors don't know what they can do. Sebastian is searching and seems to be coming up with ideas. When I go to Lizzy's room I usually find (y/n) watching her. The contract symbol Lizzy had is gone since she died, the demon part of her. The soul I believe to be the witch in her and human side. In my room one night, I laid wide awake and suddenly (y/n) came from her usual corner.
"Ciel I have news!" She said cheerfully.
"I have questions for you! Why have you been watching over Lizzy so closely? Are you the reason why she's dying?! Are you trying to posse her body so you can save your soul? Clearly you're growing weak." She said nothing but just looked at me in shock. "Answer me you floating ball of light!" I screamed at her.
"I've been slowing it down! She would have been dead months ago if it weren't for me! When I come back you'll be sorry for ever thinking this. Good luck saving her Phantomhive. Her time is slimming down faster and faster." She said before flying through the doors she opened.

Sebastian came running in, "Lady Elizabeth is complaining of a lot of pain in her head. She is also so in and out of a form of coma. We need to find a cure soon, or Lady Elizabeth will die." Just like (y/n) said...
"Find a cure because you can use these symptoms to help! Go quickly! I order you to save her." I said rushing him.
"Yes sir." He said running out the doors.
That night I slept with a heavy heart. Why do I always ruin things for myself?

*year later*

We luckily saved Elizabeth but she still tried to get me back to her. My heart and love was never with her so I tried to avoid showing affection for her. Everyday I'd sit hours on end at (y/n) grave trying to finally end my grief but somehow I still felt her soul in the manor even after I enraged her.
"Young master, it's not healthy to be grieving like this and for so long." Sebastian said as he poured my afternoon cup of tea, as well as handing me on of my lunch cakes.
"I don't know any other way than this... I'll keep coming here until I am finally past this lose in my life. If you wouldn't mind leaving, please do so." I said to him without even looking up at him.
"As you wish, but I'd like to make you aware of the storm to come. I've heard it's going to have terrible winds and lightening." Sebastian said before leaving.
All I did was look up at the tree that kept this area shaded along with the single headstone. I looked around at the clear skies and saw nothing be worried about. "What storm is he talking about?" The birds continue to sing, the butterflies all sunned themselves on the flowers that I had planted. It was just another one of England's beautiful days, until I saw a huge sea of black clouds coming closer but slowly.
