Soma, the Prince of Bengal,only 17 years old, stood on the bow of the boat staring at the landscape of England. His tan skin looks soft and even. The long, wavy plum purple hair slightly blowing from the wind loose at his shoulders, half of his hair is in a ponytail held by a gold clip. Not to mention his golden, yet dreamy eyes shining in the sunlight, they match his gold earrings rather nicely. Around his hips was sizable scarf knotted and a off-white shawl held in place by a brooch, the color of rubies, set in a gold plate. Also a decorative bindi, white slippers, a long, heavily-embroidered sherwani with tight-fitting plain Churiders.

Agni stood behind him, watching England get closer and closer by the minute. He spoke with an indian accented voice "Welcome to England, My Prince."
Soma looked at him, he spoke with a slightly thicker Indian accent, but yet both were equally attractive. "This is wonderful! I would like to wander around for a bit before we get down to business."
Agni nodded in understanding. Within half an hour, the ship was docked and Prince Soma and Agni stood on the docks. Soma groaned "Is it just me or does it smell like urine here?" he said as he covered his nose.
Agni covered his nose soon after Soma did "indeed it does."
Prince Soma walks off the docks onto the sidewalk, Agni follows as usual. After hours of wandering through the streets and familiarizing themselves with them they ran into two new faces by yes, bumping into them on accident. Ciel Phantomhive and his butler, Sebastian Michaelis looked at them. Agni looks at Ciel and says. "I'm sorry sir, I am Agni, and this kind man is Prince Soma. The Prince of Bengal." Agni introduces himself and Prince Soma to Ciel, Sebastian introduces Ciel in return. "This is Ciel Earl Phantomhive, and I am his butler, Sebastian Michaelis."

After the introductions, Ciel smirks and decides to bring them to his estate. As soon as they reach the door, Prince Soma and Agni stare in slight awe. The manor wasn't as big as their palace, but for a young boy, it seems pretty large. Ciel and Sebastian escorts them inside, Ciel sighs and says "Sebastian, show them around and bring them to their rooms."
Sebastian puts his hand over his heart and bows slightly "Yes, my lord."
Sebastian walks down the hallway, Soma and Agni following. Simple conversation sparked until Sebastian finished the tour and brought them to their rooms. He looked at Soma "At night in the library we have a maid who studies, but tonight she will be seeing a guest. Under any circumstances do not bother her. If you want to meet her, do not expect her to bump into you when you are looking for her." Sebastian smirked. "Goodnight, Prince Soma. Goodnight Agni." he said before walking away.

After Agni fell asleep in his sepreate room and Soma had thought about what Sebastian had said, he laid in the bed. It wasn't as comfortable as he thought it would be, the sheets were slightly itchy due to not being used often and it was a bit chilly in the room. He wanted to complain but he didn't want to, since Ciel was kind enough to take him and Agni in for the night. Soma closed his eyes slowly and drifted to sleep.

((For this next part look up Yearning-Raul Ferrando, it will make more sense. Also listening to it while reading it, will increase the emotion of how Soma feels. Start the music quiet, then turn up the volume as Soma gets closer to the sound. Just a tip if you would like to try.))

Prince Soma jolted up from a nightmare, but also from the most beautiful sound was heard. Music, with actual instruments, violins, drums, symbols and chimes. He couldn't resist getting up to check where the sound was coming from, he walks to his door and slowly opens it. He pokes his head out of the room and looks to his left, then his right but within a second he turned left and walked through the candle-lit hallways. Something was pulling him towards the sound, his curiosity. As he slowly found his way through the maze of hallways, he was at the end of the hallway that lead to the Library. The door was cracked slightly so light shined through, one foot after another he slowly approached the Library door.

His breath slowed and his heart rate beating as the music grew louder and louder. He stopped and peeked through the crack, he saw only lit candles around the room, a gramophone, and a lit fire in the fireplace. He closed his eyes thinking 'please don't creak. Please don't creak'
He was able to open it enough to where he could see inside, he saw a feminine figure dancing, belly dancing to be exact, to the music. The fire giving off a shine on her soft, tan skin, she was a beautiful Bangali Indian woman. The light from the candles showed off her amber/golden eyes, and her young face. Her long black hair draped past her shoulders in a large, but loose braid. Her body moved with the music.. such grace, purity, and beauty. Prince Soma watched in awe and blushed, his heart began to pump hard and fast. The blood in his veins begun to boil and his cheeks grew hot, he couldn't take his eyes of such beauty.  He tried to hide his blush when his mind wandered, but he smiled happily anyway, 'oh my, what beauty.. My goddess I shall meet you one day!' he thought to himself.

As soon as the song slowly came to a end, she stopped dancing. Prince Soma backed away from the door and ran back to his room thinking of only her, the mysterious woman in the library.
