[Elizabeth didn't think much of the mist, so had spent the time out and about, seeing the occasional Ciel being a jerk hallucinations, which while mean and made her cry, didn't make her overly scare. She believed Ciel might not say these things himself, and given what has been going on as late she started to wonder if they might be true. Since the mist wasn't bothering her it decided to pull one over on her.]

You say you want to protect him? Don't make me laugh. You're more of a bother than a help.

[She turned her head, her sword now out and ready, she wasn't sure what was going on, but she knew the mist might be having a fault at this.]

That's not true, I can be of help.

How? It's not like anything he does he thinks about you or how you'll react. Face it he just doesn't care about you, he only cares about himself.

[Lizzie shook her head, her hand gripping the sword tighter.] You're lying!

Time to face it, he's moving forward and you're too stupid to realize. He doesn't have the time to deal with a little girl anymore.

[With that she was annoyed, the look was obvious as she gripped the sword harder.]

Shut up. Shut up. Shut up!

[Holding the sword up, she lunched forwards, aiming her sword towards the mist, but not realizing until she felt her sword hit something that she realized someone was already there. Once the mist started to move, revealing the poor unfortunate soul that was behind it. Upon the realization Lizzie's look of surprise and fear were clear upon her face as she looked on at the figure of Ciel, his chest bleeding as the sword was still embedded within. She soon pulled it out, causing the poor boy to fall to the floor.]

Ci...Ci...Ciel. [She was physically shaking, the sword dropping to the floor as tears started to stream down her face.]

I-I'm sorry. it wasn't meant to happen. [She soon started to cry as she slowly made her way over, the fear truly taking over now as she knelt by his side.]

Ciel! Please don't leave me! I don't want to be alone! [She leaned over, her crying now uncontrollable. She felt guilty and at the same time scared to be alone. It wasn't something she would have wanted at this age. Not at all.]

[ sebastian had done all that he could to reassure kaname and hotaru that he was, in fact, fine, and that all he needed was a bit of time to himself. he wasn't entirely sure they believed him, but he didn't rightly care. at least not right now. he had his orders, ...though these constant excursions into the mist that ciel had demanded were starting to wear him thin. ]

[ slipping out for what must have been the fourth, fifth, or maybe even sixth time, sebastian moved swiftly through the mist in hopes of finally coming across his master's fiancé. for what felt like hours he'd traversed the area, and just as he was about to return to the bakery he paused, ...brought to a sudden halt by the sound of what sounded like crying. cautiously he moved forward only to find elizabeth knelt by a mist made copy of his master. scowling at it, he quickly moved to her aside causing it to disperse. his arms came around her and he drew her against his chest. ]

Lady Elizabeth. [ as she shook with sobs sebastian did his best to try and comfort her or, at the very least, calm her down. ] Lady Elizabeth please calm down. My Master has not left. Ciel Phantomhive has not left you. [ he trailed off. ] ...and you're not alone. He's incredibly worried, in fact, and I've been looking everywhere for you on his behalf. [ because sebastian had insisted ciel stay inside. he couldn't let his master succumb to the mist's terrible effects. ] I assure you, Lady Elizabeth, he's not left you, ...let me bring you to him.

[Elizabeth had started to slowly drown out what was going on around her. She wasn't in the right state of mine. Scare, terrified at being left alone, but she didn't know what else to do except cry. So when Sebastian came around, she wasn't expecting it at all. Trying to stop the tears flowing down she sniffed a couple of times, searching for her tiny bag which held some handkerchiefs.]

I'm sorry. It's not very lady-like of me to cry like this.

...no. It's alright. Let it out. [ no use in keeping it bottled up. he held her close and tried to comfort her as best he could. ] It's just the mist, Lady Elizabeth, ...all of this is an awful illusion. [ draws back and offers her the handkerchief he's got tucked in his breast pocket. ] Here. [ a small smile. ] I was worried about you, Lady Elizabeth, as is my Master.

[She used the handkerchief and dab her eyes, making sure you wiped them away like any other lady would.] But how can something like a simple mist do something like this? [She always thought it was just the weather being odd.]

I am afraid I do not know. ...there's something about this mist. I get the feeling that it's only the beginning. [ and he draws back just a bit to allow her some space to do so. ] But as you noticed it's able to manipulate us, and so it would be in our best interest to go inside. ...won't you let me bring you to Ciel?

[Lizzie continues to dry her eyes slightly before nodding.] I think it would be best to just go inside now. [She doesn't want to deal with that hallucination again for a long time.]

[ and he could not blame her. from what he'd seen it had been rather intense... ] Lady Elizabeth, [ a pause as he rises to his feet. ] I mean no disrespect and I realize that I may be overstepping my boundaries, ...but I think you should let me carry you to safety.

[There was tings she would never expect Sebastian to say, that was kind of one of them. So with a slight flail, she has completely forgotten what being a lady is a good idea right now.] But it's not very lady like, what if my skirt... [She blushes at the though of showing off her legs. That would be considered rude.]

[ and he is aware of this but it's in both their best interests now to get inside as soon as possible. he didn't want to her to have to face another illusion. ] ...on my honor, Lady Elizabeth, I swear I will not look. I will keep my eyes forward and on the path ahead.

[She looked down for a moment before looking behind, checking to see if the illusion was still there. But for now it had vanished from view.] Let's go, before it comes back.

[ nodding in affirmation sebastian takes off. it shouldn't take all that long to get there, ...assuming no more illusions interfered... ]

[Lizzie kept quiet the whole time, her thoughts spinning around in her head. She knew for now she needed to get them all sorted and in the right places.]

[ during the duration of the trip sebastian is just as silent. he's still musing over a few thoughts himself. slows to a stop as they near the shop. ] ...almost there, Lady Elizabeth.

That's good... [She just wanted to get out of the mist as soon as possible. Sure she had been dealing with odd things like this during her time here, but this she feels like was the worst of them all.]

[ sebastian shares the same sentiment. it's starting wear on him too, and he'd just like to get out of it and go inside. he hears something from behind, however, and as he slows to a stop by the door he spares a glance over his shoulder. his mist made master is back, it seems, and he's kept the injuries sustained by lady elizabeth. his eyes narrow at the thing, and he mumbles something under his breath before addressing elizabeth. ] Keep your eyes on the door Lady Elizabeth. Please do not look anywhere but the door, ... [ sebastian fumbled for his keys, unable to reach them with his master's fiance in his arms and so gently he set her down. he pressed close, trying to shield her from the abomination that had starting encroaching on them. ]

[Elizabeth nodded, making sure to keep her eyes on the door, her mind focusing or at least trying to focus of little bits and pieces that the door, the details that were on it. But within with this, she always felt like looking over her shoulder, feeling that if she did, she might be able to see something or someone standing there, watching. But, she knew what she would see. She'd see him once again, with the injuries he had gotten before her her and the thought alone made her upset. Her eyes had started to switch from the door to the side before finally she turned her head slightly for a moment before closing her eyes and turning it back.]

[ as his mist master drew to a stop sebastian spared it a glance. he shuddered as it seemed to bleed fog from all its orifices. such a disgrace. he'd love to put that thing in its place... but he'd not abandon his elizabeth in favor of doing so. she was his priority right now. he pulled out his keys and all but shoved them into the lock as he pushed the door in. slipping inside he set her down and turned to seal it before more of the mist could leak inside. sebastian fell against the door and let out a side before moving over to elizabeth. ] Lady Elizabeth, are you alright ...?

[It would take her a while to at least stop shaking, but for the meantime she felt as if her head was that tiny bit clearer than it was before.]

I'm fine for the moment, thank you.

[ sebastian let out a small sigh of relief as she relayed that information over. he gave her a smile and motioned for her to follow. ] ...my Master will be happy to hear that, and I'm sure he'd love to see for himself. Would you mind, Lady Elizabeth?

[She nodded, following quietly for a minute.]

I... would like that, but... it's nothing, I guess it's still getting to me.

[ slows to a stop. ] If it's bothering you then it's certainly not nothing. [ frowns. ]
