chapter 21
Ok, quick note I've given myself a deadline for this book to finish and I'll try to finish it by then or just after, but I will say this by next year the first book following the anime will be posted.
Your fencing tournament was coming up so you'd been made to practice more "why is (name) practising more mother?" Elizabeth asked Francis. she looked at Elizabeth and said "a very big fencing tournament is coming up, and I want her to do well in it most believe we women are not capable of standing on the same level as a man" it was then you backflipped and hit the practice dummy. "Well let's change that, women are so much stronger give us food we make a meal, give us a house we make a home and give us nothing we make a life right" you glanced at them as you said that "exactly (name), a good way to put that" Francis said praising you.
You fixed your outfit and hair 'I don't want her fixing my hair though, I can't wait to see her do Ciel and Sebastian's hair that will be funny' you thought and went over to her. Francis checked you over and said "do your best in that tournament, remember you need rest as much as practice" you nodded "(name!) (Name!) (Name!) please teach me how to do that!" asked Elizabeth looking at you, which you looked and said "sure but if you can do a crab, like this then I will" you did a crab 'thank god I practice yoga and things in that dream world' you thought standing up.
Elizabeth tried and couldn't and pouted "keep trying, once you can I'll teach you a backflip," you told her rubbing her head. you left when you got near your room you said "ok I need a bath, better cool down first or I'll be sore for a few days with stiff muscles" when you got to your room you asked a maid to run you a bath whit some of your favourite bath oils in. while you waited you sat on the bed and said "now how will I keep up with Ciel? I've got the advantage of having those 10 wishes but now I've just realised something I didn't wish for someone like Agni or Sebastian, someone to help me I can only do so much myself Agni's human but he's got superhuman abilities, and Sebastian well is Sebastian I'll have to talk to him when I next see him about it"
You were deep in thought you didn't hear the maid until she touched your shoulder you looked "I have called you young mistress, is everything ok just you seemed deep in thought?" she asked you shook your head saying "no just thinking something over that's all and thank you" you went to your bathroom and enjoyed your nice bath. after you changed into something comfy the next day you were with Francis and Elizabeth going shopping for a new outfit to wear to the tournament, you may have to wear the same outfit when fencing but when accepting the award or going in you didn't.
"Where are we going, mother?" Elizabeth asked "we are getting (name) a new outfit for this tournament, we need to make a good impression after all you are the children of the head of the order of the garter and head knight, so your older sister needs to show she is not to be messed with" "well let's see what they have first, we might find something new also something that I can fight in if needed to, to show I can look like a lady but I can fight," you said as you opened the shop door Francis nodded.
A worker said "hello and how can I help you today?" "Hello I'm looking for an outfit for my eldest daughter, she's entering a fencing tournament and we need a new outfit for her" "please follow me and I will get someone to talk to you" Francis nodded and sat down so did you and Elizabeth. soon a man came in and said "Hello ladies, I've been informed of what you want now I'll talk about what you want in more detail and colours and such and come up with a design fitting to you, and what you envision" you nodded.
It took a few hours and there were a few designs which you liked and with a few words convinced Francis to get them all. the designer said "wonderful! I will have all these made and have them sent to the Midford manor, it won't take less than 2 weeks" "thank you for that, come on girls let's go" Francis told you and Elizabeth, so you left with her happy with what you picked. the rest of the day was shopping getting Elizabeth a few things she needed.
The time flew and it was time for the tournament you were getting ready in your room, Ran was helping you with your hair "there we go, it will be easy to put your helmet on and also won't ruin when you take it off" "thank you for helping me" you smiled at her. Ran said "it's my pleasure, now let's go and that outfit looks lovely on you very ladylike but also functional, so if you did need to fight you can" you smiled glad she got it.

Francis was waiting for you when you came down with Ran you ask "does it look ok?" Francis said "yes, very appropriate you look like a knight very appropriate" you smiled glad she liked it. Alexis had gone ahead with Elizabeth and Edward to get seats in an hour you were there with Francis. Ran said "I'll stay with her lady Midford," Francis said "thank you, (name) we will be where you can see us" you nodded she went.
Ran said "here a Japanese good luck charm" she did the charm and said "now you have good luck and no matter where you place you did your best and that is what matters, I know your family is proud for the fact you're in this tournament at all" you smiled at her. 'She always knows what to say to make things better' you thought soon it started you and the others walked out. you could see the shock on the faces the fact a girl was taking part and the youngest one there too, you looked out to see your family as well as Ciel Rachel Vincent.
After introducing each of the ones in the competition you went to change, once changed you went to the hall where it was set up. the announcer said "the lots will be drawn at random; the winner will advance until one is left it is best of three" you looked at the boys 'ok some of them are so cocky, time to wipe the floor with them and knock them down a peg or two' you thought as luck would have it you were first up against a boy about 2 years older the match started.
"Why is she letting him hit her?" Rachel asked you'd lost a point "she's testing his skill, a smart move one point lost is not the end" Francis told her and she was right. you wanted to see his skills and work a plan out now you dodged him getting used to his attack pattern. Vincent could see you were thinking as you fought 'this is a skill she is not wasting, like Francis thinking on her feet but this is more, it's a skill the next wife of the watchdog needs if she's to help him like she said' he thought everyone watched you got the two points no one knew it was the only girl yet you kept your helmet on and went to sit down and wait.
The tournament went on all your matches it was close some ended in a draw and another match to decide who won, but it was now the final 'ok a few were very close, this guy he's like 14 but looked 17 I've got to be careful with this, but still seconds good' you thought you walked over and the guy did too and the match started. it took about half an hour but you both had a point you watched their every move. Alexis said "this will be very close, I believe that young man is going to enter the knight's academy next year for lessons, he has the chance to join" Francis nodded agreeing. Elizabeth wanted to cheer but held back, Edward had a look of he better not harm my sister.
Everyone held their breath as the final point was won, they wondered who won the referee said "the winner!" they held their arm up to you. which people clapped and wondered who you were, so you stood up and bowed to the crowd and held your hand out to the guy you fought, who shook your hand and said "you did good it was close" you nodded and took your helmet off and said "you too, I almost lost if I hadn't had my mother give me special training to prepare id have lost" they were still in shock you were a girl and said "oh um, who is your mother?" you said "Francis Midford" they said, "wait! the one who beat the head of the knights!?"
You said "oh yeah, you know my parents" you walked away to change. after you were given your trophy and thanked them, most couldn't believe you won a girl who looks like she needs protecting. so sweet and innocent yet you beat them all not holding back well the first few you did but the final you didn't hold back you couldn't afford to.
After you went to your family Elizabeth ran and hugged you telling you how good you were, Edward praised you for your win you said "thanks" you smiled you then heard your name you looked to see Ciel. he said "congratulations on winning" he gave you a bouquet of your favourite flowers. you blushed a little you saw out the corner of your eye Edward growling quietly and glaring that the fact Ciel gave you flowers after you all went home which they celebrated your win with a small party.
