White Maid (Rewrite)

White Maid, Supremely Talented & Competing

Aurora didn't sleep well that night. But she got up the next day, tired and to the smell of curry. She brightened a bit. Her father would sometimes bring home curry when she was younger. She could recall the days where she would wait for him to return to their home in the Lord District of the Silver City. 

She'd been a cherub then- a baby angel. Once she was a teenager- by angel standards- they had moved from the Lord District to the Heaven District, the highest of all the districts. Her father had always been an arch angel, but he did become the King of sorts after the Creator went on to make a new world, leaving this one in his Arch Angel's hands. 

Aurora had been what one could call a princess of Heaven- but that didn't mean everyone loved their new leadership. Aurora hadn't been blind to the fact other angels opposed her father's rule, she didn't agree with him all the time either- but it gave them no reason to murder him and proceed to frame her for the deed. 

Aurora held back the tears at the memory of home, and dressed before making her way down to the kitchen to find Soma eating what was probably his thousandth bowl of curry as Sebastian waited patiently for an opinion. "No- not like Agni's." The prince said sadly. Aurora cocked her head to the side in confusion, "What's going on?" She asked walking into the room. 

Soma burst into tears and collapsed into her arms. "Agni!!!! Wahhhhh!!!!!!!" Aurora's eyes widened in surprise and she looked at Sebastian with a raised brow. The butler sighed, "I apologize for his behavior, my lady, but Agni abandoned Prince Soma last night and now the young master has ordered me to top Agni's curry so to receive the Royal Warrant." He explained.

 Aurora nodded, "Perhaps I can help," She offered. "My father used to bring home curry quite often. And it was the best of the best, I assure you of that." Sebastian smirked, "If you'd like to help I wouldn't object, Lady Aurora." Aurora grinned and began tasting. She paused at one, "This is quite similar to my father's secret recipe." She said surprised, "I don't know how one would be able to acquire the ingredients here..." Sebastian chuckled, "Thank you my lady, but after all- I am simply one hell of a butler."

In the Afternoon...

Later on at the curry competition- Aurora stood alongside Ciel and the other servants. Mey Rin had lent her a cloak which was draped over her shoulders and a pair of shoes fit for the occasion. Aurora glanced over at Soma only to spot him running off. With a sigh she started to follow only to stop and watch the scene. Meena- as it turned out, had run away with a wealthy man to escape her servitude and become the wife to a rich man.

 Aurora could feel Soma's pain and followed the young prince as he ran off. She frowned when she turned a corner and saw he wasn't there. Strange, Aurora thought. I could've sworn I saw him run this way... The angel walked around the area a little more before she found herself lost. She sighed and settled to walk back to the carriage.
