Sister Phantomhive

The Servants

The day to follow didn't have any particular plans, just a day to relax after the unexoected events of the previous day. Sebastian woke Ciel up at usual, preparing his breakfast as the servants got to work. Mey Rin was ordered to tend to Lily, but she insisted to get dressed by herself, after that she was also served breakfast at the table along with Ciel. It was quite awkward and silent but they both didn't seem to care, all that mattered was the food. Lily ate her food with anything but manners, when she finished a thought had occured to her.

"So are we going to keep this whole sister thing a secret ooor..." Ciel nodded

"Seeing as we have no solid evidence, such as documents, it may seem suspicious if some girl had suddenly been identified as the Phantomhive sister." Lily listened carefully

"I see your point, so what shall my cover be?" Ciel thought for a moment

"A maid" Lily smirked

"Oh how nice for your sister to be your maid" Lily joked, then considered something.

"Wait, does that mean I have to wear a dress?" She was digusted at the fact, she had tried to hide how much she disliked wearing a dress for Lizzie's sake, but wearing one everyday would not be possible.

"I guess not, what do you suppose you will wear then?" Ciel asked

"I don't know, just nothing girly" Ciel sighed and nodded,

"Sebastian, find something for her to wear, but make sure she would still look like a servant, we don't want anyone who visits on business to be suspicious." Sebastian bowed and walked off to find an outfit

"Yes, my lord" Lily flashed a sarcastic smile as Ciel rolled his eyes.  Sebastian came back into the room.

"I have set out your clothes on your bed, Lady Lily" he said bowing. Lily nodded and headed for her room after she ate, to check out on her new clothes.

"Thank you" she adressed to Sebastian before she left. She returned to her room and checked out the clothes, which were basically a butler's uniform in her size. She was happy with this, she prefered to dress more boyish anyways. She returned to the dining table where evryone had already left, she saw Mey Rin cleaning up breakfast and walked over to her.

"Oh! Hello, Miss Lily! I have heard from the young master that you will be covering as a maid, but you don't need to clean my lady, no not at all!" Lily giggled slightly and took the plates that nearly fell out of Mey Rin's hands. Mey Rin gasped and began apologizing

"Oh I'm so sorry! I-" Lily stopped her

"It's really okay, besides i'm used to cleaning all my life, and I orefer to work instead of be pampered anyway. Whatever I get from life I should deserve it through hard work." Mey Rin nodded and stood up

"That is quite a good motto to live by, yes it is!" Lily smiled and walked off with the dishes and cleaned them while Mey Rin continued with other chores. It really did get much more work done with two maids.

Ciel sat in his study contemplating a thought he had from when he first kbew for sure Lily was his sister. Sebastian noticed and asked what he was thinking

"Something on your mind, young master?" Ciel sighed and nodded

"It's about Lily, should she know about the servants? She is after all a permanent part of the manor I suppose..." Sebastian stood next to the young lord.

"Well she did indeed do a great deal of damage on that man, he was just barley alive, she may be able to be trained to protect you as well with her strength, not to mention intelligence." Ciel nodded, still thinking it all through.

"Who would train her?"

"Well all my time is spent on you my lord," he said smirking, "So I suppose...Mey Rin could train her, is that alright my lord?" Ciel nodded, and began to get back to the work in front of him

"Good, ell her about the servants, gather them all together and come get me when they are all present."he bowed in response, along with the usual

"Yes, my lord" Sebastian then left the roomamd went to fetch the servants, and Lily. They all reported to the foyer with no questions in their mind, exept for Lily, who wondered why they were all to be gathered. Sebastian returned with Ciel who had a serious expression, as usual, on his face.

"Lily," Ciel announced, "Seeing as you are now part of the Phantomhive manor we have information you must know."she nodded, slightly worried. The servants looked as if they already knew what was to be said, for Ciel had looked at them at the emd of his sentance.

"The servants of this manor arn't like any other servants, " Lily began to look confused

"They are trained soldiers, you may say, here to protect me" Lily's eyes widened, more in amazement than anything else.

"Finny," Ciel again announced, "his specialty is his strength, Mey Rin, sniper, and Bard, former soldier. Quite fond of his flamethrower" he said flamethrower with slight annoyance as Bard laughed nervously.

"That's, well...awesome!" The servants smiled as Ciel kept a straight face

"That isn't all I have to say Lily, based on what Sebastian has told me about the condition that man, Cedric, was found, it seems you are quite the fighter." Lily simply nodded in response, wondering where he was goung with this statement.

"That is why I want you to be trained to protect me as a servant of the Phantomhive Manor." Ciel stated loud and clear for all to hear. The servants were suprised, but not at all in the negative way. Lily was suprised as well, not to mention honored, but before she could speak, Ciel said one last thing

"Also,I would like Mey Rin to train you" Mey Rin looked even more suprised

"Me?! I-i'm honored, yes I am, thank you young master, this i-" Ciel cut her off

"Don't make me change my mind." Mey Rin immediately apologized and was once again quiet.

"Me? Trained to protect you?" Ciel looked at Lily

"Is that not what you want?" He said semi-sarcastically 

"No, I'm just sayi-"

"I understand, your training is to start first thing tommorow while we are away, don't wreck the manor, and you two, " he said now looking at Finny and Bard.

"Keep this manor in top shape while we are away" they all nodded

"Yes, sir!" all the servants said in unison.

Lily was overwhelmed with this sudden news, but so exited to start training. She wouldn't dissapoint, she knew how strong she could be, and she would prove it. She is prepared no matter how hard the training will be. She would never give up.
