Maid From Hell

She takes the paper and bows slightly.

"And As for anything I may want to keep, that statue is all i'm interested in keeping...All of these demon pictures and such are of ancient ones...I'm not interested in them...they are a bunch of old fools...And I will see you in the morning, sir..." She stepped out of the door and headed back up to her room. She wondered if keeping the statue was the right thing to do. She knew it would only draw attention to herself and her father. And she knew how her father hated human attention on himself. But she knew, somewhere, that he wouldn't raise an issue about it. He was never the one to start a fued over something so trivial.

She walked into her room and shut her doors, getting into her new and comfortable pajamas that her master had bought her. She had to admit. For a human, he wasn't all that bad. Maybe a bit bossy, but she didn't like men who were pushovers. Demons or no. She layed on her bed, looking around her room more thoroughly now. One of the pictures in the room caught her eye. It was of a beautiful woman, sitting on a rock that overlooked the sea. She looked mournful and sad, yet at the same time, like she had no expression at all. But that wasn't what Darcy was concerned with. It was the image of the woman. She looked an awful lot like her mother. Could it be a coincidence that both her mother and her father's images were in Franklin's house? She hoped this wasn't an ominous sign that her parents would come back to get her and kill Franklin. She hoped against all hope that it wasn't that. Staring at the picture for a few more minutes, the demoness fell asleep.
 
"Allright darcy, ill see to it that the statue is placed in your room."
As darcy walks out his room he closes the door slowly and starts to think to him self again 'the old ones huh? The fools, The old fools, maybe thats what ill call them when i sell them online or at an auction. I hope that no deamons figure out that i have all these items. Maybe i should just sell them one by one, yes...thats the smartest way to get rid of every thing that was not wanted here'
Franklin pulls out a small cell phone and startts to mash buttens on the phone. He calls dozens of auction sellers to sell one of his picese each weak of there acutions. As he finished all the calls he felt a sence of weight off his shoulders. He needed to get back to his work so he decided to open his laptop and plan the next digs. Then he got call about an hour latter speaking about a meating. This was darcys first assighnment for him. They will go to a meeting and darcy will sit with him through out the whole meeting. finnaly and hour latter he finishes the project and closes the laptop. He walks the dark quite halls looking around the themes he had to replace. He reaches his room to lay down in the same cloths he was in all day. Hes been waiting to sleep in his house all week. finnaly the man slept
 
Darcy woke to the sun blaring in her face. She grabbed her pillow and moved it over her head. She hated sunlight. She was more a moon kinda gal. But she would have to get used to the sunlight that was constantly in her face. She sat up, stretching and getting out of bed to put on her maid outfit that her master had chosen for her. She grimaced. It wasn't in her style a whole lot, but at least it wasn't frilly and pink. She grabbed her brush and brushed her hair, pulling it into a ponytail.

Next she went to her restroom, brushing her teeth and putting on some makeup so she would look semi presentable. After fixing herself up to where she wanted it, she walked to her bed, making it neatly.

She looked over at the picture of her mother and sighed.

"Mom, watch over me from where you are. I'll prove to you that demons do not need to be in hell to preform just as well as others..."

With that she left her room and began to search for her master's room.
 
He had awaken early as allways and this upseted him becuase he still had 5 hours untill his meeting. He decided to continue on his work and open up his laptop typeing in the keybord to pass the time. He noticed his cloths smelled so he walked up to his dresser and looked through his cloths to figure out what to wear at his meeting. He wanted to wear the same suit he was wearing but he didint not like the idea of smelling like days old food. He got dressed finnaly and as he was about to walk out the door he sees darcy in her maid outfit. He liked the choice he made with the dress, it looked dark and elegent and he wasint saying this becuase her parents are deamons.
"I see you have found the dress to fit well? also heres a note darcy. You didint have to get dressed untill after breakfets"
He smiles and escorts her to the dinning hall. He calls the other maids to get him and his personal maid berakfast. They bow to him but give darcy a glare. Franklin notices the tention and turns to darcy when the maids leave to the kitchen.
"Im sorry for the rudness of the maids, they seem to be quite jealous of you. I think its becuase you are beeing treated like a guest and not a maid. Any way when you recive the food swich plates with me becuase they can be very rough, ill skip the meal. also, today you will be with me at all times at the meetings. any questions?"
 
Darcy heard him as he commented about her maid outfit. She nodded slowly and followed him. The maids looked at her dirty. It made her mad. Almost to the point of wanting to wring their necks. She restrained herself though.

"Yes Sir..." Did they really think poision or wierd tasting food would drive her away? They would have to do much better than that. "I will follow you where ever you go sir."

She sat down at the table. The angry maids gave her her food. It smelled fine, but with her demon senses, she could hint a trace of arsenic. It wouldn't hurt her much, but she didn't want to take any chances. She switched plates. She looked at Franklin.

"You aren't going to eat today, sir?" He already looked thin. He needed meat on his bones in order to survive. She would have to make him a great dinner today. That way, he wouldn't go hungry. Something fattening to get some meat on his already skinny frame.
 
He watches her Look at his body and he thinks why dose she do it. then he looks down an realizes hes like a tooth pick. The years of work had taken a toll on his body weight caseing him to dramticly drop pounds. She asks if he is going to eat and he quickly tells her no on the account of food makes him a bit lazy when he eats enough. He sits there with only water in his hands drinking it slowly.
"once you are done eating you can explore the reast of my house untill 4 oclock sharp. i think you would want to see the garden and my study hall. It would be alot easyer to conversate once you see alllll of the statues and fosslis"

He rises from his chair and walks away to his room for some more rest.
 
Darcy finishes her food and excuses herself from the table, thinking maybe she should follow him, but didn't because she knew he needed some rest. She decided exploring his manor might be a good thing for her to do. She began her exploration. First it was the first floor which consisted of the kitchen, dining room, what looked to be a meeting room of some sort, and the staircase. Going up the staircase, was the second floor which seemed to hold all the sleeping quarters. At the top of the staircase was a balcony to the back yard which was huge. On both sides of the balcony were two stair cases leading down to the grass below. She walked down the elegant staircases and explored the human's beautiful yard. All the flowers, the bushes, everything was so nice. So much nicer than it was down in Hell. Maybe they should have banished her more often. She sat at a nearby fountain which, upon the fountain sat a beautiful bird and water flowed out of it's mouth and into the fountain.

This would be a nice life to live. At least until they let her back into Hell. But when she saw all this, her thoughts started to change. She didn't want to go back to them. They were nothing but deragatory to her. She decided enough was enough. She wasn't going back to Hell. She liked it here, with her master. She blushed at the thought of her and him together, but then again, she wanted nothing more. She walked back up the staircase and walked back to her room, deciding that she needed just a little bit more sleep before 4 o'clock.

Opening her door and shutting it, she fell onto the soft bed and fell asleep.
 
Franklin couldent sleep much becuase he got calls from buyers for his collection. Most of his buyers were collecters or cult members. The cult members where the ones that would pay for an arm and a leg for a little pice of a wing. He made about 10,000 just for a fosslized wing. He had to sell to collectors and cult people becuase if he sells to all cult members he might be noticed by some one he dosent want. If he sells to all collectors hell lose money. After talking with the buyers he suddenly realizes its allmost time for him to go to the meeting. He rushes to darcys room and finds her sleeping on the bed. He puts his hand on her cheak to wake her. This affected her dreams. He whisperd loudly.
"darcy....wake up daarcy, we need to get going to the meeting now.....DArcyy wake up."
She had woken up to his hand on her face and his eyes locked onto hers. Her tells her good morning and to follow him. They walk out to a limo that is as black as the night. He lets her walk into the car first and follows in after her. They drive off and he starts to give her a quick breif on the meeting.
 
Darcy was awoken to Franklin ushering her to leave. Luckily she was already ready for the meeting. She was scooted to a huge limo and she started listening as he told her all about the meeting. He said somethings about not interrupting and waiting for him to be done. Also she heard that she wasn't to speak unless spoken to and that was hard for her to hear. She had opinions too and she voiced them when she felt the need, but she couldn't do that here. She had to be prudent. She nodded in response to each thing he told her about.

"Yes, I understand sir..." she then remembered this morning, how he had put his hand on her face. Why was she remembering that now? She blushed, nodding at his last comment and turning to look out the window. A human had never affected her as much as he did and she just barely started with him. What was going on with her? She didn't know, but all she knew was that she needed to listen to her master so that she wouldn't interrupt or distract him in such a way as that would hurt him at all. She would do everything she could to protect him. Of course, that would have to be done discreetly....
 
The meeting had gone much more smothly than expected. He used his gut feeling again to help his company out. His gut told him this dirt bag was planing to sell his company and it was bankrupt. Franklin asked a series of questions to the man and told him he would buy the comany within a month. The man was very egger to sell his company right away. Within a month we will see if his company crashed to the ground. Franklin walked out the meeting room and called darcy to come with him. His phone rings loudly and answers.
"hello?....yes....yes i have your present ready...love you two sweety....bye.....Okay darcy we need to make a quick trip to a jewlery store, my brothers daughter is going to have a birth day soon so i need to buy her a present. This is where you come in, i need you to try some jewlery out and i will need a womans touch to give me an idea what to give her."

After a few hours of driveing in the heart of the city they reach a large jewlery store. He walks her into the store and it was a bight colored walls but the cases where black with the silver shineing off the cases. Some cases had gold with dimonds, others had just gold, but most had silver with dimonds built into it. The shop owners knew franklin so they let him open the cases with his own hands. He grabed a heart shape pendant and slowly put it around darcys neck. His hands where rubing the back of her neck and they stayed in one spot becuase franklin had trouble puting it on her. Once he got it on her, he inspected her walking around her. He pulled her to a miorror to let her see how it looked. His hands where still neer her neck and he said

"so how dose this look?"
 
Darcy blushed a little as he suggested he would be good to try jewelery on. She wasn't one for wearing that stuff, but if he needed a model, she would do it. Not that she had to like it at all. She was dragged to a jewlery store. She was suprised when they trusted him enough to let him reach in and grab whatever jewlery he thought would work. She cringed at his choice. As he fumbled to put it on, it made her a bit uncomfortable, but she endured until he finally fumbled it onto her neck successfully. She then got really paranoid when he started to walk around her, wondering if he really was looking at the necklace or elsewhere.

He pulled her to a mirror to show her how the necklace looked. She cringed. It was so girly that she couldn't stand it, but for a girl it would be a beautiful gift. As long as she was human that is. She could feel his hand on her neck, her face flushing. Why was he being so touchy feely towards her? This wasn't at all like what her fiance did to her. Psh, he hadn't done anything intimate with her at all. In fact, she knew that he hated her. A lot...She shook the thought out of her mind as she commented on the necklace.

"I am sure she would love this necklace Sir...It is beautiful" She knew a human girl would love this necklace, but try giving it to a demoness like her and she would probably pummell the said person into the ground. She knew, because all of the female demons hated jewelry.
 
He studied the necklace on her and finally he put his hands on her neck again and funbled again with lock to take it off her. He finnaly got it off her and he had left a warm spot on her neck. He grabed a few bracelets and bought the necklas with two braceletss. He had paid in straight cash wich was normal when he went into that jewlery store. Thats why they liked him so much. He handed darcy the bags which were extremly small to be holding on some ones wrists. He signals for darcy to get in the car first and follows her in. When they get in the driver speeds off to the large house again. Franklin takes out his phone and calls his brothers wife
"hello, yes i have her present now. yes. yes she will love it. i had my personal maid to test it out....no, yes i have a new one and she is better than the last one. ive also got one for your new baby when she gets older give it to her ok? ok, bye then. Allright darcy, we are going to go home and ill tell the maids to cook for dinner for a small party, they wount posin it so there will be enough for the both of us."
 
She sighed as she got back into the car. As Franklin pulled out his phone, Darcy looked out the window, a smile creeping onto her face. She knew that this life would be ten times better than what Hell ever had offered her. She would have fun up here and no one was going to stop her from doing so. She looked over at him as he finished up and he told her that they would be having dinner and that the maids wouldn't poison it. Not like that mattered to her whether it was poisoned or not. That poison wasn't strong enough to kill a demon like her. Of course....she smirked...they didn't know she was a demon.

"Yes Sir"

The car pulled up to the big mansion and they hurried inside as the maids ran around everywhere to prepare dinner for her and Franklin. She turned to Franklin as they walked up the stairs. It was in a hushed voice in which she spoke to him. She was concerned about the maids trying to poison him all the time.

"Sir, have the maids been trying to poison you ever since you hired them on? Or is it only when I arrived? IF they have a habit of doing that, then I might have to get rid of them...especially if they are a threat to you..." She couldn't let anything happen to her savior of the street life. If it wasn't for him, then she wouldn't have a place to stay, not a place to eat, and no place to sleep. She was grateful for his kindness and so she had to pay him back.Whatever she could do, she vowed she would do. She placed her hand on her neck where he had touched her. It was still warm. She smiled as she waited for dinner to be prepared.
 
He walked out the car with her and as they walked up the stairs she whisperd to him. He knew what to say allredy he had planed this also. He turned to her and whipers back
"They only posin people who are going to work for me and i treat them as guests. Also ive made up a plan if they ever try to posin me, if i die in home and they find out i was posined every member of my work force will hunt down every maid and butler. Ive also warned every butler and maid that i have this plan ready, i aslo have many other plans if they try something funny."
He likes how his new personal maid likes to protect him from things. He tells darcy to get some nice clothing on and that he had left it on her bed to see if she likes any of them. He walked into his room to change his suit and he had let her change in her room.
 
Darcy walked to her room. On the bed she saw beautiful outfits. One struck her in particular. It was a royal blue color and it was a beautiful victorian style dress. She wouldn't mind wearing this. Besides, she had a lot of experience wearing these. She carefully slipped on the dress and prettied up her hair, putting some light makeup on. When was dinner going to be ready for the two of them? She hoped it was soon, because she didn't want to keep her dress on for too long. Sitting in one made her extremely uncomfortable, no matter how comfortable the cloth it was made out of. It was just that wearing dresses made her more self concious then she already was.

She strolled her way down to the dining room, slowly, as to not trip down the stairs. She didn't want to look like she had never worn one of these before. She safely made it down the stairs and took a seat in a room next to the dining room. It was a comfy room and it had comfy chairs. Darcy hoped he didn't mind her sitting here as she waited for dinner to be ready.
 
franklin walks into the room where darcy was he signals her to walk into the room with him. They both walk into the dinning hall and it had a cupple, two old men, and a young laddy stitting at the table. Franklin has darcy sit bettwen him and the cupple and franklin sat bettwen darcy and the young girl. As they sat there and conversate bettewn each other Franklin stod up and anoounce's
"wellcome my most trusted people of the company, you all know each other but you need to know who my new maid is. Her name is Darcy and she is from Californa, that is al you need to know, she is very trusted with me. Now lets eat!"
All the food was brought on the table from food ranging to american to asin. He allowed darcy to grab anything she wants. He whispers to her
"do you have any questions so far?"
 
Darcy waited. Soon enough though, Franklin came in and showed her where to go. He looked dashing in his spruced up outfit. He led her to a giant room where some people sat in chairs and the table was set for dinner. She looked at all the different people there. The young lady seemed to sneer at her which she glared at her menacingly. The couple didn't seem all that concerned about her. The two old men stared in approval, their eyes wandering places she didn't want them to wander. If one of them even tried something towards her, she would have to kill them, or at least seriously injure them.

Franklin introduced her and she, begrudgingly, sat next to the young girl. She hoped she wouldn't be glaring at her like that all day or that would make things rather annoying and unpleasant. Instead she turned and said Hello to the girl, catching her off guard. Franklin asked her if she had any questions. She shook her head, taking a few dinner items and setting them on her plate and beginning to eat.

"I'm ok thanks. I will ask if I have any questions. Thank you sir"
 
"allright then, dont be afrid to ask me any qeustion when you get a thought."
They contuine eating food and now was the time for franklin to start eating to gain his weight back. He couldent decide wich food to eat so he started to the ffod that was closest to him, indian food. He grabed some fat triangle shaped food that looked like an egg role. It was suppose to be eaten with some liquid that didint look same for his digestive track. He eat the triangle and it tasted dry, spicy, but well prepared. He finnaly tryed the dark liquid and as it ran down the tringle looking food he bit into it. It was perfect mixture but he knew he would be punished in his insides, he didint care. He kept eating untill the woman spoke to franklin with a flirty body movement.
"well franklin, hows the bussnes going along. and how did you meet this Personal maid of yours?"
Franklin was unaware of the body movement and the tone change about darcy.
 
Darcy watched Franklin try all the odd looking food. She sneered at the thought, still not quite accustomed to Human food. Darcy kept quiet though. She would not speak unless otherwise told. She picked at the food she had already taken, eating it begrudgingly. The female next to her kept looking over at her from time to time, a dark glare on her face. What had she done to upset that woman? Maybe she was envious. It wasn't her fault that the master thought she was beautiful. It just came naturally to her. Her looks were the only thing she could really not have to try to hide. She listened to the men and women around her talking. One opened up a comment to Franklin about Darcy. She just sat there, not yet having permission to speak. She waited as they awaited Franklin's reply.
 
Franklin looks at the young girl thinking what to say. He wanted to think about something quickly and suddenly he got it. He knew it wouuld most likely sound dumb but it will have to do. He places a hand on darcys shoulder with a smile and says.
"well to be honnest about this i placed an add on the papper and this papper went every one who wasint my enemy or my enemys friend. I got many people trying out to do this part and ive got down to my last 5. it was silly of me to act like one of thoses tv shows on televison nowadays. Once i got down to a nice young woman and eleganct darcy here. ive decided to pick the hardest working one. That is how i met darcy."
He removes his hand and hopfully darcy would mind the white lie he had just told to the young laddy.

"I see them." the young laddy says and takes a sip of wine. she glares at darcy even more for the story.
