The Reapers new Master: a Black Butler Fan Fiction

Forgotten property

"Any who... I'll go pack our thing's so we can get you nice and settled in our new home, my lady." Said Grell as he walked away smiling. "Guess this makes us neighbors now, huh Bassey?" Said Grell as he walked passed Sebastian.

"Oh dear..." Said Sebastian as he sulked a bit. 

"Yeah, well I should go take a bath now. After I'm ready you can take us to the property." Said Mercy as she began to walk up the stairs.

"I wonder what else you've forgotten." Said Ceil as he crossed his arm's and pouted.

"Hmmmm.... Come to think of it, Grell did we turn the stove off before we left last month?" Asked Mercy as she stopped at the top of the stairs.

"Uhhh... I thought you turned it off." Said Grell as he gulped. "Oh dear." Just at that moment a knock was heard at the front door, it was man with a telegram for Mercy.

"How may I help you good sir?" Asked Sebastian as he let the man in. 

"Yes I have a telegram for a Ms. Jaclyn Martinez." He said as he pulled out a letter. "Dearest sister, I am sure this letter won't reach you until after you've arrived in London. I have some sad news, your home burned to the ground a few hours after you left. The fire department said that the cause of the fire was the stove being left on. They figured it was the cause because when they got to the area that looked like the kitchen they claimed to have seen what looked like a stove still burning. Sorry for your loss at least you have property in England, you still have a home somewhere. When you do come back, if you choose to. Stephine and I will have bed's for you and Grell. Sincerely your older brother Pastor James Martinez." Read the man allowed as he waited for a tip.

"Well that answers that question." Said Ceil with a sigh. "I do hope your insured."

"I don't need to be. I brought most of my valuables and all my money with me." She said as Ceil looked at her with surprise. "Yeah why do you think I have so much luggage? It's certainly not shoes and ball gowns." Said Mercy with a giggle. Grell then packed their things after Mercy had a bath, they then said their goodbye's to the Phantomhive manor and were on their merry way to the new Martinez Estate. But all the while a man with golden eye's lurked in the tree's and shrubbery, like a spider. He was ordered to send an invitation to Jaclyn, for a private dinner party at the Trancy Manor. He then followed them and waited, then knocked on the door.

"Hello..." Said Grell as he opened the door. "Huh? Hello? Is there anyone out there? Huh what's this?" Said Grell as he picked up an envelope. "Hmmm.... For Ms. Martinez..... My lady! You've been invited to a dinner party!" Shouted Grell with excitement.

"Oh really? At whose house?" Asked Mercy as Grell walked into the sitting room.

"It say's at the Trancy manor." Said Grell as he handed Mercy the invitation, who was sitting one the floor next to the fire place. "Sounds like fun, are we going to go?" Said Grell as he sat down next to her. 

"Hmmmm.... I think it would be rude to decline. It might also give us a bad name amongst these rich British types if we say no." Said Mercy as she inspected the broken wax seal. "Hmmm... That's a neat coat of arms, look Grell a spider. Do you know what's up with that?" She asked as she cuddled up against Grell with a glass of wine in her hand.

"No, no idea. So when's the party?" Asked Grell as he wrapped his arm around her and cuddled her.

"In two day's. Hmmmm.... It say's I can bring a servant, but I have to come alone in general. So I guess this mean's you can't be my date." Said Mercy as she clicked her tounge.

"Hmph... Oh well at least I'm your only servant. So you don't have choose." Said Grell as he kissed her head as Mercy giggled and blushed. 

"I should pick the dress I want to wear tomorrow. What do you think I should wear?" Asked Mercy while Grell started to think. 

"Hmmmm.... I'm not sure my lady." Said Grell. "But shouldn't you be more concern on how you got invited to a party so quickly. I mean you were in the paper's this morning and someone has already invited you to a party. It's strange to me." Said Grell.

"I bet it's someone who want's someone dead." Said Mercy as she tossed the invite aside. "I don't really care to be honest, as long as I get to enjoy my wine in my own home with you." Said Mercy as she got Grell to lie on his back. 

"You and your wine... I wish you wouldn't drink so much." Said Grell as he wrapped his arms around her hips.

"Whatever, at least I'm not a drunk." She said as she kissed Grell on his lips. They enjoyed each others touch, little did they know they were being watched from a distance. 

"That's right, enjoy yourselves for now. My highness will be testing you soon enough." Said the man with golden eye's, as he watched them play. "I'll see you both soon enough." He said before leaving to return to his master, when he came back his master Aloise Trancy had been waiting for him in his office.

"Did she get the invitation Claude?" Asked Aloise as he turned to face his loyal servant.

"Yes your highness, I stayed until I made sure she was going to come." Said Claude as he got on his knee and bowed his head.

"And...." Said Aloise.  "Is she going to come or not?" 

  "Yes your highness, she will be attending. Along with her servant Grell Sutcliff." Said Claude as he stood to his feet. 

"Good... Do you think she'll accept the job? I mean he was her host all this week, what if she declines and goes to warn him?" Asked Aloise as he panicked lightly. 

"Not worry your highness, if she declines I'll take care of it. After all what kind of butler would I be if I couldn't tie loose end's." Said Claude as Aloise began to giggle. 

"And that's what makes a Trancy butler." Said Aloise as he began to dance around Claude."Óle!"
