   You quickly jerked awake in the bed that you had been currently sleeping on and glanced around the room warily. Your gaze took in the strange room that you were currently in, growing a bit alarm at the fact that you couldn't remember where you were at. This room looked strangely unfamiliar to you and you could feel your heart begin to sped up at the fact that you were in a place that you didn't know.

It was suddenly then that the events that happened yesterday came flooding back int o your mind and you couldn't help but let out a bitter laugh at the fact that you were still being held hostage in Alois manor. As much as you wanted to use magic, you knew for a fact that it wouldn't do any good being surrounded by five demons. You knew for a fact that you weren't strong enough to take on any demon and if you couldn't take on Sebastian, you knew for a fact that five demons were definitely out of question.

'This would be the great time to know and be able to use a teleportation spell,' you couldn't help but think bitterly as your gaze glanced around the room that you were currently in. You guessed that it was at least nice enough of Alois to put you in a nice looking room, it was better than being kept in a prison cell like how most hostages were kept. Although knowing Alois, he probably still thought of you as a guest rather than a hostage which you knew you were for sure.

I mean a guest wasn't a person who was taken against their will and locked up in a place where they didn't want to be. You let out a sigh as you made your way out of the bed and stretched in place trying to wake up your tired muscles and you let out a yawn as well. You glanced toward the window seeing bright light streaming in and you could guess that it was probably the morning... well the clock on the wall clearly stated that you were correct.

As you made your way around the room, the aromatic smell of flowers hit your nostrils and you could only guess that they were obviously from the garden outside. Speaking of the garden, your mind couldn't help but wander over to think about Finny. How was he doing? He and the others must be worried sick about possibly wondering where you were currently at right now and if you were doing alright. You couldn't help but wonder if Ciel really did believe in that note or was he trying to form a plan on how to get you back.

You shook your head clearing your thoughts. You knew for a fact that Ciel would definitely come and save you from this prison and you could only desperately wish that it was sooner or later. Pausing for a moment to fully wake yourself up, you finally began to take care of your business for the morning. After washing up and getting freshened up, you puled your clothes over your figure, ready to take on the trouble for the day.

You glanced back over toward the messy bed and let out a sigh. 'I don't want to leave the room messy as it is. I know for a fact that Hannah gets enough trouble from Alois as of already.' Allowing your magic to run from your necklace you chanted out, "Messy and mucky, with nothing in place. Clean and tidy is how it should be so mote it be."

With that you watched as the bed made itself up, the pillows coming to rest perfectly on the bed as the entire room and the bathroom clean itself up and you waited for a moment until the spell had finished. 'Perfect!' you exclaimed out in your head as you turned your way back toward the door.

Remembering that last night, the door had been locked you quickly wished that it wasn't in this very second. You hadn't used a spell to unlock it the previous night in fear that a certain demon was out standing guard or the in case one of the others were patrolling the halls for invaders or in this case escaping 'hostages.'

It was then that on your way to the door, your feet shuffled against an object and you glanced down to see a small piece of paper on the ground and you reached down to pick it up. Turning it in your hands, you came to an realization that the letter was from Alois himself and you couldn't help but feel curious as to what it was about. You flipped the paper over to see writing on the back and began to read it to yourself.
