It happened not long after the social season. When the clouds are in its full bloom, pouring the ever-white snow to be enjoyed by children and to be dyed by the crimson liquid of the clashing amazonas. This is the Empress season, where only the Queens of an unnamed organization are allowed to take part.

This also means that (first name) (last name) have to attend... Again. That is because she is the Queen of Spade---- not like she prefer that term---- ergo she prefer the term 'War'. Spade has a knightly feeling in it, but she ain't a knight, or rather, a righteous one of its kind, but one with a dark way of raising the Flag of Justice. However, this activity is due to happen at the last day of the same week, when the sun have hidden its precious rays.

(First name) release a yawn after a few hours of travelling towards a household that is located at the outskirts of London: the Phantomhive Manor.

Her (e/l) (e/c) hair rested on her back and her head leaning on the window, watching the moving greenery and waiting for the wooden carriage of oak wood and gold linings to stop.

Then, the awaited stop arrived, with the door gently cracked open for the precious lady, clutching her ankle length victorian dress of pale (e/c), cautious of the dirt it may collect. Then, she were greeted by the famous young Earl, with his noble outfit and an eyepatch. She slightly gape at the sight of the 13 years old nobleman. But even so, she smiled with appreciation as she know the young boy waited for quite a long time.

The man beside the boy stood with grace, the black color suited him perfectly. His eyes are bloodshot red that somewhat reminded (first name) of blood. And she have to admit that that rare eye color captivated her from its depths.

"Lady (first name), it's a pleasure to meet you." (first name)'s smile grew to grin as she politely accepted the sweet gesture.

"Likewise, Earl Phantomhive." the boy nodded and started to walk. Her (E/c) orbs examined the area for the last time and upon seeing that the mansion is at peace, she started to walk, accompanied by her (e/c) haired maid, (c/n).

A day have passed since the social season end but instead of fun gatherings and joyful conversations, a bomb was dropped and the nobles mourned for the death of Madam Red, or so she heard. Funny how (first name) managed to adjust to the change after returning from a week 'vacation'. Which include warcries, blood, guns, bombs, bruises and corpses.

Her eyes landed on the boy's back. Losing his family in childhood, and losing his beloved aunt yesterday, her mind dared to imagine the pain of the young one; being alone in such age and having such heavy duty. But she cleared her mind and focused her attention at the surrounding.

After a couple of minutes walking, they arrived at what seems a study room.

"Sebastian," said the child after sitting on a couch. "Bring some tea and cakes."

"Yes, young master." the three of them followed the man walk out and soon disappeared from the door, then she set her eyes at the Earl before looking at her maid.

"(c/n), stay at the carriage and wait for me." the maid seemed reluctant to leave but still obeyed and bowed.

"As you wish, my Lady." when the maid disappeared, her attention was caught by the young earl.
