Jenna woke up and went through the same routine. Wake up, Be annoyed, be dressed, be freshened, and go to breakfast.

"Today we will see to the progression of your castle, miss." Azure said as he slid a black boot upon her leg. Her symbol did not hurt.
Jenna was led to the table with Ciel as Sebastian recited the menu. As Jenna ate, Ciel looked up at her. Upon noticing this, Jenna looked back cautiously, unable to read his beautiful blue eyes...

"As you may know we are going to your castle today but we have a problem." Ciel said handing her the morning paper. Jenna was not really into reading the newspaper, but she read the headline aloud.
"ENGLAND'S NEW DUCHESS KEEPS HIDDEN" Jenna read.

"We must keep low but the only quiet route is through the city. And we must walk through most of it." Ciel said.
After breakfast, Sebastian prepared the carriage.

Azure slid a black cloak upon the duchess. He lifted the hood and it covered her entire body, even keeping her face dark. Even if, Jenna wore a black dress with a diagonal pair of straps that showed her mark, in case Azure needed to be summoned. To cover the mark, a piece of Velcro cloth around that spot that made it look like a plain dress.
--Time skip because I care!--

Jenna, Ciel, and their butlers walked through the city. Jenna looked very mysterious.
Jenna heard a bullet and quickly pushed Ciel and herself out of the way. She quickly heard more and before Ciel could figure out what was happening, Jenna picked him up with strong arms as she ran to safety. The butlers defending them as they escaped. Jenna felt a very sharp pain as her shoulder began to throb "Jenna!" Ciel screamed. Jenna kept running. She did not want to endanger the Earl even though she wanted to toss him and cry from the pain. She had to stay strong. Except the sting from her symbol began as it glowed through her dress. She stopped in the alleyway gently sitting down the Earl. It hurt so much. She took of the Velcro and then screamed. "AZURE!" Azure and Sebastian where soon at their sides and as soon as Azure saw the duchess in the state she was in he began to panic. He held the wound to stop the blood as tears streamed down Jenna's face. Soon Azure carried her Bridal-Style as Sebastian did the same with Ciel. They quickly escaped the city and got back to the manor. The bullet was taken out and the wound was wrapped. After Jenna was taken care of, Azure stayed by her side. Darkness soon took Jenna. But not the darkness of sleep.
