When we reached the metal door, we saw that both Ciel and Sebastian were already there. "Well that was fast. Are you sure you secured every window and door?" I said seriously. "Why yes of course Ms. (F/n)." Sebastian said with a fake smile. "Don't call me Ms. Just call me by my name." I said as I walked over to my backpack. "Alright Lady (F/n)." He said with another fake smile. "Don't call me that either." I said as I dug through my bag and pulled out the food I've gotten from Lizzy's and I's Supply Hunt.

"Lizzy, check your backpack and take out the food supply you got from our Hunt." I said counting all the energy bars and other foods I had dug out my bag. I pulled out four water bottles I had in my bag. Elizabeth pulled out an energy drink along with four water bottles, some gronla bars, and some bags of dried fruit. We have eight water bottles, an energy drink, five granola/energy bars, three small bags of dried fruit, a small PB&J jar, unsalted crackers, and two small packs of trail mix.

"Hmm... This will be enough to last us about three and a half days if rationed out equally." I said going over the food. "What about Jack and Mark?" Ciel said making my eyes go wide in realization. "Fuck!!" I yelled as I punched the wall leaving a small crack in it. "We never got to go out to get food for Jack and Mark!" I yelled. I stood up and paced in a circle around the room with a hand on my chin. "(F/n) calm down. We'll think of something." Elizabeth said as I calmed down a little. "Alright.. Umm... Jack can have the PB&J jar. I'll have to go out and find water and some oats for Mark." I said taking a nervous glance at Lizzy.

"How long has Mark gone without food or water?" I asked Lizzy. "He's gone without food for three hours and water for only two and a half." Lizzy answered scratching her head. "Alright..." I said as I went over to my bag and got out a water bottle for Mark. I went over to Mark who was sitting down on his knees. I opened the water bottle and fed it to him as if he were a calf. He finished drinking it in about three minutes. I rubbed his head and gave him a kiss on his muzzle. I then sighed to myself as I spoke aloud, mostly to Lizzy.

"I'll have to go out and find food for Mark." I heard Lizzy shout out no which broke my heart a little. "Elizabeth I have to. Mark can't go without food or water for more than eight hours. I have to... I don't want him to starve and I know you don't either." I said as I held Mark close to me. "Then take me with you." Lizzy said stubbornly. "Elizabeth you know I can't do that-" "I'm not weak. I can go with you. You don't have to protect me all the time." Elizabeth said desperately. "But I-" I got cut off by Ciel.

"That's Enough!" Ciel shouted not too loudly. "I want Elizabeth to be safe too. You can take Sebastian with you to get food for your pets." Ciel offered. "Master I can't possibly-" Ciel cut him off by raising his hand. "That's an order. Go with her and bring her back unharmed. Plus," Ciel took out a gun which shocked me. Here I thought he was a little weakling. "I know how to shoot a gun." Ciel said with a smirk at my shocked face. I thought about it long and hard, as much as I don't want to be with the damn demon I'll have to take his offer even though it was more of a command than an offer.

I sighed and agreed. "Fine, we'll leave in a few minutes. Ciel, make sure to give Mark a water bottle every two hours. We shouldn't be gone that long." I said as I went over to the pile of food on the ground and picked up an energy drink and three granola bars. "What about the Horde??" Lizzy said in a bit of disbelief. "We'll be fine. I promise." I said as I held her hands in my own. "Now," I began as I grabbed my backpack once I had emptied most of its unnecessary contents before I put my drink and granola bars inside. "Shall we get going?" I asked as I also got a bit of ammo with me. I paused and turned to Ciel. "What type?" I asked him bluntly, confusing him.

"What type of what?" I sighed irritated by his confusion. "Your gun moron. What type is it?" I asked again. "Oh uhh, its a Correo hostage with a Colt 1903." He answered. "Alright. There is some ammo for that gun in my satchel since I have that same gun." I said as I patted my right thigh where the same gun is. "Alright." He said with a nod of his head. "Make sure not to make much of any noise and check the barriers downstairs every few hours to make sure there are no Lurkers trying to get through. Alright?" I said suddenly getting hit by a wave of anxiety about leaving them here alone.

"Alright, we understand, (F/n)." Lizzy said with a soft smile giving me more anxiety. "O-ok... Umm.. Take care of Mark and Jack for me... Don't let Jack eat all the PB&J." I said looking at Jack and Mark. "We got it, you can leave now." Ciel said irritated by my presence. I sighed and began to walk out the door with Sebastian when I suddenly stopped, turned around, and spat out what I really wanted to say before grabbing Sebastian's arm and running out the door making Ciel and Lizzy both blush hard in embarrassment. "Don't make Lizzy pregnant!" I stopped running once I reached the top of the roof panting.

"Was that the reason you looked so nervous with anxiety?" Sebastian questioned with a smile of amusement. I sighed answering him as I laid myself on the ground covering my face. "Yes... I just... I really don't want her to get pregnant. And you never know what teenagers are doing these days... Yeah that's stupid." I said as I stood back on my feet. "I don't think my master would do something so ungentlemanly like." Sebastian said with a chuckle of amusement. "Yeah, you're right..." I said with a blush at my stupidity. I looked over at the edge of the building looking at all the Lurkers. 'This is going to be a long day...' I thought to myself with a sigh.
