A/N: These next few chapters probably won't be that great. I'm just writing whatever pops into my head as I go, so don't judge me if you think this is the worst thing you've ever read. I would love for you guys to give me advice on how to make it better.

At the crack of dawn, I jumped from the tree and started toward London again. The hunters would be looking for me again today, so I had to get as far away from where I was as possible. I ran to the other side of London and went into a clothing store. I found a dress, tore off the tag, and ran from the store. I heard someone yell, but when they saw who I was, they quieted. 

I ran to an alley and put on the dress. It was pale blue and had lace around the sleeves and skirt. I tucked my old dress into a corner and told myself I'd come back for it tonight. I ran from the alley and back to where the hunters had almost killed me the night before, where someone had mysteriously saved my life. 

I saw my blood still stained on the concrete sidewalk. The guy who had been killed was no longer laying there. In his place was a white chalk outline of his body. The area was blocked off, and a couple police officers were talking to each other a few feet away. Everyone who walked by paid no attention to the crime scene as they went on with their lives. And on top of that, no one seemed to recognize me! I took that as a sign that my disguise was working.  

I squeezed my eyes shut, hoping that they were hazel instead of blood red. I opened them and saw that people were ignoring me. A couple people smiled at me or said hello. I smiled to them as I walked by.  

I walked out of the crowd and into a small park. I found a bench and sat, trying to tame my waist length black hair. 

I looked around the park and saw kids running around happily. Parents were sitting on nearby benches watching their children and laughing.  

"Hey," a kid said, looking at me. 

"Yeah?" 

"You look like that girl I saw on the newspaper last night. Do you have wings like she does?" 

Crap! I thought. Now the kid's parents were looking at me. They looked just like the scientists from last night! Double crap! 

Luckily though, I was a pretty good actress. "Wings? Really? Someone around here has wings? I must have missed that story." 

"Do you have wings?" the kid asked again. 

"No, I don't," I lied. 

"Are you sure?" asked a voice from behind me. 

I turned my head around to see the scientist who had yelled at his workers not to kill me.  

I kept a straight face the whole time. "Positive." 

"Then you won't mind if I check?" he asked.  

"Of course I'll mind!" I yelled at him, standing. "What gives you the right to go around feeling teenage girls' backs, you freak?" 

Just then I felt two arms go around me. "Got ya!" someone yelled.  

"Nice job!" the man said. "Peter, grab her legs." 

"Yes sir!" the little boy said, then grabbed my legs and tied them together with a rope. 

The person behind me hand cuffed me. The metal hurt when it touched my skin. Crap it! Is the metal anti-demon or anti-angel? 

I saw the other kids in the park watching us, and they looked concerned and scared. I didn't want to hurt any of them in the process of this. 

I turned and saw the person who had hand-cuffed me was a woman. She had blonde hair and looked to be in her 30's. 

I felt the man lift the back of my dress. I elbowed him hard in the head and he stumbled backward. He looked at me in shock. 

"You're stronger than I thought you'd be," he said. The woman grabbed my arms as the man tried again.  

"What gives you the right to look up my dress!?" I screamed.  

The man stopped and pulled out his I.D. It had his name, date of birth, and it also said that he worked for the police. 

"Do you have a warrant?" 

He laughed and pulled up the back of my dress. 

He touched my right wing, and I shivered. I wasn't used to anyone touching my wings, and it was an unwanted experience. 

He touched my left wing, my black demon wing, and I lost it. 

I shook my arms from the woman's grip and turned fast. I used both my hands and pushed the man away from me. I saw the children all around me, frightened.  

I broke the rope that was around my feet and ran away from the people at full speed. The hand-cuffs hurt worse while I was running and they were continuously hitting my wrists. 

I felt tears swimming in my eyes, and I shook my head as I made my way to the forest. 

Once I was there, I screamed, "Dad! Where are you?!"

Meanwhile, at the Phantomhive Estate: 

Sebastian set a tray on his master's desk and poured Ciel some tea. He bowed to his master, and then left the room.  

On the way down the hall, he stopped dead in his tracks. 

"Dad! Where are you?!" he heard his daughter scream from the woods outside of London. 

Sebastian smiled. "I'm closer than you think, Selena," he said before continuing down the hall.
