Kitty Cat! ( black butler fanfic)

chapter 8

              With a loud sigh I kicked a box full of paperwork I needed to destroy.  I swear I had around ten paper cuts on my thumb alone. As I swished around my wrist I glanced out the window for about the twentieth time. I can never get over the gardens,  they stay the same and as strange as it sounds they hold me together.  As I looked out longingly I saw something. For a few brief moments I was confused over what or who it was but as I began to stare intensely I knew who it was. I gave an exasperated sigh right then and there. He has one hell of an audacious nerve to show up on my grounds!

               

               New found energy seemed to enter my body as I stood and rang Li Hua and Li Ming's bell, alerting them that I was in need of assistance.  Almost immediately they knocked on the door. "Come in." The silently opened the door and stepped in. They both gave me a curtsy and awaited orders.  "Li Hua please get my pistol...my hunting gun might be better...ohh well get both. Li Ming come with me I need to change into more suitable clothes. " With that they stepped into action. I changed into my hunting outfit and went out back with my guns. Oh...my I do quite love my guns. So smooth and cold to the touch! Oh and the smell of the powders held with in! I shook my head back and forth. Snap out of it Alex!

         

               With a huff I pushed the doors open and stepped out. "Ohh! Alexandria!" Cried out a red headed pest. I turned quickly to my left as he ran towards me with open arms. Without much thought I punched his face and shot him. The twins gave a gasp as he fell on the ground bleeding. A frown etched my face as I walked over to him and kicked his side. "Get up. What are you doing here? I am fairly certain I'm not dieing any time soon." A loud obnoxious groan left his lips as he turned on his side.

               "What! No, "oh my love Grell how are you!" No! Just shoot me!"He complained as he slowly got up. Slowly rising my gun again I gave him a smirk. "I will do as you wish." His green eyes widened and he quickly threw himself at my feet. "Nooo! Ali we are good friends are we not! Please do not shoot me,again!Willy was mad last time I got blood on the new carpet!"I gave him a stoic face and sighed. "William does have a habit of being too harsh at times..."I allowed.  Yet another sigh left my lips, I need to stop sighing. "Come on you fugly "Lady" lets go inside." I joked as I led the way to my home. I remember the day we first met... "Hey! Who are you calling Fugly!? What does that even mean!?"...Sometimes I wish I could forget.

              I had almost died that day. Grell saved me, strangely enough. A reaper saving a human...unheard of a myth, yet it happened.  My mother and I had gone into town to find my father a gift. A harmless task, at least it should have been. I trailed behind my mother and tried to stay close I really did, but luck had not been on my side. The chattering of people made me feel small as I looked about frantically for my mother. For a six year old child to be alone in a crowd without it's mother, it was terrifying.

               As I searched for my mother in the crowd some child a little older than myself bumped into me. Before I could apologize out of habit the child got up and ran. Shocked did not cover how I felt could this person really not hold enough manners to apologize to me. A frown splashed across my face but with a sigh I let it go. Finding mom was more important.  As I turned around I saw two men make their way towards me. Instinct told me to run, and I did just that.

                Mommy! I needed to find mommy! I ran as I screamed out for her. I could sense them closing in on me and goodness was I scared. People moved aside but did not help, it was that fact that terrified me more. If they were to catch me my Parents would have no clue as to who took me and where. I was done for, my legs were becoming sore and I was slowing down. Nothing was going to save me and that fact drew desperation. Push harder! I repeated that line over and over again in vain. As I rounded the corner I tripped.  A cry of...I'm not totally sure, defeat,  helplessness,  desperation or complete and utter sadness which ever it was, I let it out as I fell. The two men were around me within seconds.  One held me down as I screamed and the other took anything of value. The one holding me down had a far away yet cruel look in his eyes as he watched me struggle. After a while my screams began to irritate him it seemed. He glared at me harshly and slapped me. Once the other man was done they began to beat me into a bloody mess.

                     I was warm for a little,  my blood was warm. Everything was silent as the men left, I could no longer scream. I began to close my eyes, mommy. All I wanted was mommy.
