"I didn't think this is what Ana meant by Vacation." My father states as we walk towards the station.

"In her defense, she did save you." I say.

"She still got my angel in danger!" Alois says hugging Allie for the millionth time. She sighs and rolls her eyes. I laugh slightly.

"Where are we going Father?" I ask.

"We are going to get your brother." Father replies.

"Oh." I say. I can't keep my mind off Ana. She looked terrible when they returned from the battle.

"Sebastian?" I ask.

"My lady?"

"Is Ana okay? She seemed to be in a lot of pain when you got back." I say.

"I assure you Ana will be just fine. She's very strong and will recover soon." Sebastian says.

"Perhaps too strong." Claude says. We all look at him.

"What is that supposed to mean Faustus?" Sebastian says.

"It means that she is too dangerous to have around." Claude says.

"I'll have you know, you are speaking about my daughter." Sebastian says angrily.

"I'll have you know that I'm speaking for the safety of our masters." Claude replies. "I still don't understand who would be foolish enough to make a contract with her."

"Are you calling me a fool?" I snap. Claude looks at me and faces forward.

"No Lady Phantomhive. My apologies if you misunderstood." Claude apologizes.

"Be sure to keep your mouth in check when you speak of my friend." I say.

"I don't take orders from you." Claude says.

"But you take them from me. You will respect Celeste's wishes. That's an order." Allie steps in.

"Yes my lady." Claude says.

I sneak a peek behind me and notice Sebastian give Claude a dirty look.

I look down at my feet suddenly finding them interesting.

"Celeste. I want you to come inside with me." My father says.

"Yes father." I reply.

"Father! Are you well?" Jayce asks.

"I'm fine." Father says.

"That's good. Why is Celeste here?" Jayce asks.

"Because that's a long story." My father replies. He walks out with Jayce and I following him.

"Come along. I would like to check on Ana." Father states leading us and the others

back to the hotel.
