Annabell was bored out of her mind today. There was nothing to do today, Undertaker said he didn't need her help and nothing interesting ever happens in the shop. So, Annabell just mindlessly started to rip papers from a book, crumpled them up and tried to throw it into a coffin. When she ran out of papers, Annabell slammed her head against the table.

"I'm boooored."

Not even a few seconds later, the door opened and in came three look-a-like boys. Annabell sat up in surprised realizing that she couldn't be seen by any one at all.

"Is Undertaker here?" asked the one on the left.

"He's busy," replied Annabell tucking a piece of hair behind her ear trying to avoid eye contact.

"Well, could you tell him that Claude said to let the spider-ette out once in a while," said the one on the right. Annabell tried not to act excited that Claude is tell Undertaker to let her out every now and then. Which lets Annabell do what ever she want and go where ever she chooses.

"O-of course." Standing up a little too fast for a a human, Annabell realized her mistake. No powers in front of any one except her fathers and Undertaker. The triplets turned to look at each other before looking back at Annabell who just stood their awkwardly.

"We don't see a lot of female demons these day. Who are your parents?"

"Uhhh..."

~.~.~.~.flash back.~.~.~.~

"Never, ever tell anyone who your parents are." Annabell nodded her head before responding back, "I will never, ever, ever! Tell anyone who my daddys are." Sebastian smiled at his daughter enthusiasm as he finished tying her shoe.

"Thank you, daddy," said Annabell hopping off a chair before skipping off to find Claude with a brush in one hand.

"Dad! Dad! Dad!"

"Yes, Spider-ette?" sighed Claude as he looked at his little girl holding a brush out to him.

"I promised daddy that I won't tell a soul who my daddys are," said Annabell as she sat on top of Claude's lap aspicked up the brush and began brushing her hair. Claude smiled every so often at what his daughter was rambling about as he did her hair.

~.~.~.~.flash back.~.~.~.~

"Annabell!" The Undertaker came out of the back room and paused to see the triplets standing there who were looking at Annabell.

"Claude said to let the spider-ette out once in a while. If you understand what he is talking about," Timber spoke quickly.

"Tell Claude I got the message, but you boys need to go. We go work to do." Shooed the Undertaker. Thompson Canterbury, and Timber left the shop quickly afraid of what the shinigami would do to them.

"You aren't suppose to be seen!"

"I'm sorry, but that was an unexpected visit and I couldn't hide any where fast enough!"

"They didn't get any information about your relationship with Claude and Sebastian, did they?"

"Luckily, no."

Undertaker let out a sigh of relief before looking around the shop to see that the floor and some of his coffins were covered with paper balls. Annabell started picking up the papers as the Undertaker looked over at her shaking his head with a small grin.

"Sometimes, I wonder why they even wanted a kid."

"Hey!"

~.~.~.~.break.~.~.~.~

"Where were you three!" exclaimed Alois as he saw the triplets enter through the door. "Well?"

"I sent them on an errand," said Claude coming up behind Alois. "What did he say?" asked Claude turning to the triplets.

"He said okay, but there was this girl there."

"We thought he had gotten an apprentice."

"But she's a demon."

Claude knew who they were talking about, but acted as surprised as he could. It would have been safer if he had gone to tell Undertaker instead of sending the three however Alois wouldn't let Claude out of his sight today. He would have sent Hannah, but Alois would've noticed quickly that she wasn't in the manor.

"A demon?" Alois walked over to where the three stood.

"Her name's Annabell," said Thompson.

"Annabell? Like the Annabell that was at the ball the other day?" asked Alois with a raised eyebrow.

"We think so. But we weren't at the ball, so we wouldn't exactly know."

This was getting bad. Very bad. Alois has taken a dislike to my Annie! I need to keep a close eye on Alois and everyone else seeing that he have a plan in mind. I also need to somehow tell Sebastian that Alois might be planning something against sweet Annabell without any of the other demons noticing.

"Claude, we're going to have a guest over this weekend. Prepare a room for her." said Alois before skipping off with a smile on his face. Oh no. I turned on the triplets who were standing behind me.

"You imbeciles!" I walked away rather quickly, heading towards my room where Annabell would be staying at. Making the triplets even more confused that before. I will make sure my daughter stay as far away from Alois, even if it means not following his orders.

"What will I do with you Annabell?"
