You and Ciel stood up. Hope fell over to her side while she was rubbing up against your back. Sebastian laid his hand on your shoulder as your cried. Ciel glared at his butler. Sebastian simply gives him a kind, closed-eye smile. You shake off his hand and walk inside of your manor. Ciel watches you walk away with a frown.

Hope went to go follow you, but Sebastian picks her up before she does. He sits down with her and explores the cat (A/N: In my head I think that Hope is kinda lucky, but I kinda feel bad for her because that cat will not be left alone. At least Pluto isn't there to rip her out of Sebastian's hands and throw her across the garden. Hehe).

Sebastian helps Ciel into the carriage. You and your brother wave to him as soon as the door is closed. You notice that Sebastian has a big lump in his suit as he gets to the front of the carriage. "Put the cat back Sebastian," you hear Ciel say. Sebastian sighs deeply as your black cat hops away from the butler.

Hope runs over to you and lays down, wrapping herself around your ankle. Ciel's carriage leaves. You pick up Hope and walk inside of your manor. Cole follows you. You and your brother go separate ways when you enter the study. You set Hope down when sit in your favorite chair.

Jerrod walks in and lights the fire for you. He hands you a cup of tea. You sip it and then set it down on the table next to your chair. Hope jumps up into your lap and lays down. You stroke her soft fur. Jerrod leaves you and Hope alone in the warm room.

*time skip*

You lay in bed with Hope laying at your feet. You close your eyes and listen to Jerrod singing your mother's lullaby.

You looked around the empty room. You felt something around your neck. You tried to remove it, but it would come off. You hear the lady sing her song.

'This necklace that you've got wrapped around my neck will choke me slowly to my death and I'm into that. Woah-oh-oh-oh. This necklace that you've got wrapped around my neck will choke me slowly to my death and I'm into that. Woah-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh'

The necklace tightens around your neck. You can still breathe. You hear the lady speaking to you, but you can't see her, "I've still got that necklace on you. I can kill you anytime I'd like to. Especially since I am with you often. Be careful about what you pull princess."

You dart your eyes around, but you can see no one. You become aggravated. Why are they after you and your family? The woman appears in front of you. She is wearing a mask and a black cloak. She smirks as she brings a gun to your head. She pulls the trigger. The gun goes off.

You wake up in fear. Hope is rubbing up against your back, purring. You rub her head and look around your room, calming down. You look down at your neck and see the gold necklace around your neck. It is as tight as it was in your nightmare.
