we pull up to a giant mansion. i recognize it very well. it can only be one place:

The Phantomhive Manor.

my eyes widen and my jaw drops. i stare at the amazing place in awe as we continue up to the manor with the horse. we come to a stop and Adrien helps me off the carriage type thing so that i dont trip over the clothing im wearing. we then walk up to the door. Adrien gives a slight knock, keeping his smile on his face the entire time. the next thing i know, a tall man dressed in black opens the door. i almost faint.

Sebastian Michaelis opens the door. i feel my knees start to give out. i feel an arm reach around me and hold me steady. i slowly turn my head down and see a sleeve covered hand around me. Adrien had caught me before i could fall. "why hello there Undertaker. is this young lady alright?" Sebastian asks in his seductive voice. i could tell my eyes are wide and my mouth is open and that i have a strange look on my face because Sebastian is staring at me. "i...i...im f-fine...th-thank you..." i studder in disbelief. "please do come in you two, the young master has been waiting for you" Sebastian says, motioning for us to walk inside.

Adrien's arm around me stays in place. i look up at him while we walk. i see the scar around his neck and across his face. i want so badly to jump up and kiss his cheek, well...more than that, on the lips. we reach a door and Sebastian opens it, revealing what must be Ciel's study. Ciel is sitting in his chair behind his desk. my legs weaken again and suddenly, my feet arent even on the ground anymore. in such a swift single movement, i realize im in Adrien's arms. he had picked me up. i look up into his face, and he is looking down at me. he then looks up and faces Ciel and sits down on a chair, keeping me held in his arms.

"who is this girl? is she alright?" Ciel asks. "ahh my lord, this is McKenzie Brunswick. she isnt from around here at all. just feeling a little woozy she it, hehehehe" Adrien replies. Ciel gets up and walks towards me and Adrien. Ciel looks into my eyes and reaches a hand to me. "hello there, McKenzie Brunswick. i am Ciel Phantomhive." he says, shaking my hand. "Sebastian, take Undertaker's guest and give her something to eat and something to drink." Ciel orders. "ahh yes, she seems to be a little hungry, hehehehe" Adrien says, letting Sebastian take my hand and carefully walking me out of the room, allowing Adrien and Ciel to talk.

i keep an arm around the young lady, keeping her steady on her feet as i walk her to the dining room. i pull out a chair for her and she sits down. she stares at me. "what would you like to drink, Lady McKenzie?" i ask her. "oh...i...im a big fan of milk...may i please have a glass?" she asks, sounding somewhat afraid yet not too afraid. more in disbelief. i get out a fine china tea glass and saucer and pour some fresh milk into the cup. i set the cup down in front of her and she slowly picks it up and takes a drink.

"may i ask you some questions, Lady McKenzie?" i ask, hoping she accepts my request. "s-sure" she says, taking a small sip of milk. "where are you from?" she looks at me then quickly back down at the table and glass of milk in front of her. "not from here...im from the year 2016...what year is it here?" she says. "the year is 1890." i tell her. "i was right...im far far far from home." she says quietly. "indeed you are. may i ask how you got here and why youre with Undertaker?" she takes another sip and says "well...i heard an oddly familiar laugh...i was watching a show...it was this...but only...it happened a while ago in your time...anyway, i hear Undertaker's laugh and run outside to investigate...well...i found that the large pine tree near my garage was shaking with laughter coming from it...i look inside and there sitting on the ground, was Undertaker...i fainted and he took me here...i am sure i arrived about 5 hours ago...since how i fainted so many times." i study her. the young lady is wearing Undertaker's clothes. i dont fully understand her story, but i trust her. i dont know why, but i just have a strong feeling of trust in her.

We pull up to a giant mansion. I recognize it very well. It can only be one place.

The Phantomhive Manor.

My eyes widen and my jaw drops and I stare at the amazing place in awe as we continue up to the manor with the horse. We come to a stop and Adrien helps me off the carriage type thing so that I don't trip over the clothing I'm wearing. We then walk up to the door and Adrien gives a slight knock, keeping his smile on his face the entire time. The next thing I know, a tall man dressed in black opens the door. I almost faint.

OH. MY. GOWD. Sebastian Michaelis opens the door, and I feel my knees start to give out, though I feel an arm reach around me and hold me steady. I slowly turn my head and look down a bit to see a sleeve covered hand resting on my hip. Adrien had caught me before I could fall or anything. "Why, hello there, Undertaker. Is this young lady all right?" Sebastian asks in his naturally seductive voice. I just knew my eyes were wide and my mouth was slack jawed, me having that strange look on my face because Sebastian is there and staring at me. "I-I-I'm f-fine... Th-thank you..." I stutter in shock and disbelief. "Please do come in, you two. The young master has been waiting for you, Mr. Undertaker," Sebastian says, motioning for us to come inside the manor.

Adrien's arm around me on my hip stays in place, and I look up at him while we walk. I see the scar around his neck and across his face. I want to so badly jump up and kiss his cheek. Well... more than that: on the lips.. We reach a door and Sebastian opens it, revealing what must be Ciel's study. Said boy is sitting in his chair behind his desk. My legs weaken again and suddenly, my feet aren't even on the ground anymore. In such a swift, single movement, I realize I'm in Adrien's arms. He had picked me up. I look up into his face, and he is looking down at me. He then looks up and faces Ciel, sitting down on a chair and keeping me held in his arms.

"Who is this girl? Is she all right?" Ciel asks. "Ahh my lord, this is McKenzie Brunswick. She isn't from around here at all. Just feeling a little woozy she is, hehehe," Adrien replies. Ciel gets up and walks towards Adrien and me. Ciel looks into my eyes and reaches a hand to me. "Hello there, McKenzie Brunswick. I am Ciel Phantomhive," he says, shaking my hand. "Sebastian, take Undertaker's gues and give her something to eat and drink," Ciel orders. "Ahh yes, she seems to be a little hungry, hehehe," Adrien says, letting Sebastian take my hand and carefully walking me out of the room, allowing Adrien and Ciel to talk their business.

====SEBASTIAN====

I keep an arm around the young lady, keeping her steady on her feet as I walk her to the dining room. I pull out a chair for her and she sits down, then stares at me. "What would you like to drink, Lady McKenzie?" I ask her. "Oh... I'm, um... I'm a big fan of milk... If you have any..." She says, sounding somewhat afraid, yet not too afraid. More in disbelief of something. I get out a fine china tea glass and saucer and pour some fresh milk into the cup. I set the cup down in front of her and the blonde haired girl slowly picks it up and takes a drink.

"May I ask you some questions, Lady McKenzie?" I ask, hoping she allows me to. What? Can a butler not be curious? "S-sure," she says, taking a small sip of milk. She looks like she'd rather gulp it all down, though. "Where are you from?" She looks at me, then quickly back down at the table and glass of milk in front of her. "Not from here... I'm from the year 2017 and the United States of America... What year is it here?" She asks. "The year is 1890," I tell her. "I was right... I'm far from home..." She says quietly. "Indeed you are. May I ask how you got here and why you're with Undertaker?" She takes another sip, "Well... I heard an oddly familiar laugh... I was watching a show... It was this... but only... it happened a while ago in your time... anyway, I hear Undertaker's laugh and run outside to investigate... Well, I found that the large
