"That colour suits you well~" An unknown voice cooed from beside you. You looked up and wiped away your tears.
"W-Who's there?" You said through cracks in your voice. You stood up and straightened your dress, leaning against the marble entrance. You heard footsteps behind you. You turned to see a flamboyantly dressed... male? Their extremely long red hair was matched in colour by their long red coat. A loose bow around their neck was messily, but still tidily at the same time, was done up. The brown waistcoat, black trousers and white shirt were literally the only things not red.
"Well, brat, I thought you'd remember me! Oh wait," The (wo)man tied their now-brown hair up in a flash and put on their glasses on. "you'd have seen me like this!"
"G-Grell?" You took a step back. They took a step towards you and untied their hair, flicking it, rather fabulously, to the side. You chuckled to yourself. "I guess no one took you as a Butler? Considering you can't even make tea..."
"See! This is what I hated about those Lords! That's why I cut out their tongues, now they can't even spea-"
"It was you?" You put a hand on your hip and looked at him, hiding your fear.
"Of course, darling. But you see, twelve people aren't enough to finish my message with notes... I need... just... one... more." They grinned evilly. He was now directly in front of your face. You gulped and remembered the information from Undertaker. He picked up your hand with the blood and squealed. "Isn't this colour just the best~! And to die in a place like this..."
He spun around with his arms outstretched. You looked down to the floor, suddenly becoming dizzy...
Your anemia.
Sebastian's POV
As the music changed, you noticed something wrong. There was a person without a partner. You smiled and paired him up with the lady you were dancing with. You looked around, remembering he faces of each person who walked through the door, only to find that everyone was there.
"Sebastian!" Your Master called from behind you. You turned and saw his running towards you. "I can't see (F/N)." He told you. You looked around and held your breath... he was right.
"I'll go and see if she's in her room or my office. You and Damien go and check around the Manor." Ciel ordered. You could tell something was wrong. You saw Damien dancing unhappily with a girl with blonde hair. You walked over and bowed to the Lady.
"I'm sorry to interrupt this dance, My Lady." You dragged Damien out of the Manor.
"What's going on?" Damien asked, a little irritated.
"Mistress (F/N) has gone missing." You told him as you looked him in the eyes. They widened slightly and he ran to the side of the building.
"Where and when was she last seen?" He asked you when you caught up with him.
"I believe it was during the third switch in partners." You told him. You both began walking, but Damien suddenly stopped, hitting his forehead.
"That was when I was with her!"
Damien's POV
You had made her run away, and you didn't even know it. Sebastian put a hand on your shoulder.
"She's still on the Manor grounds, you can smell her soul." He told you. You exhaled and focused on your sense of smell. He was right, you could smell her from miles away.
"The scent is stronger in this direction." You pointed down a pathway covered in roses.
As you walked down the path, you could hear a voice.
"Hey... why are you sleeping? Hello~"
Sebastian put a hand in front of you, telling you to stop. You both looked around a rose bush and gasped. There, stood a man fully dressed in red, holding an unconscious Lady Grimm limply in his arms. He was shaking her and trying to wake her up.
Sebastian sighed and walked out of the hedge, you following him. "Grell, would you put Mistress (F/N) down?" He looked at Grell.
"Grell? Oh, now I remember, the fail of a Butler." You smirked.
Grell threw (F/N) into the air excitedly and jumped on Sebastian. You ran as fast as you could and stopped her from hitting the ground. You sighed and turned to Grell. Sebastian ducked and Grell went straight over him, landing on his face.
"Don't touch my Master again."
