I walked around not knowing what to do. I didn't really want to ask anyone else after that experience of being molested. I was still lost in thought when someone walked into me.

"Oi! Watch yourself! Don't stand in the middle of the road!" A man shouted angrily. The man that bumped into me was with three other men. They were carrying a coffin.

"Oh? I'm sorry?" I said and they took off. If they were transporting a corpse, there is a chance that they were going to the Undertaker's place I thought. Maybe I should follow them? Well it was not like I had anywhere to go so yeah that's what I'm gonna do. I followed them in secret and after about ten minutes of me dodging around corners, it turned out that I was right. They went into Undertaker's place and came out after a bit without the coffin. I waited until there were out of sight before approaching the door of the funeral parlor. I took a deep breathe, opened the door and stepped in.

"Ummm.. Hello?" I said with an uncertain voice. There was no respond so I shut the door behind me and walked further in. It was dark inside as expected but there were some candles barely illuminating the interior. Coffins of all sizes were laying around. The walls were painted black with scull decorations everywhere. At the back of the parlor were some old-looking shelves with loads of jars lined on them. Some sort of strange fluid filled the jars and stuff were suspended in the fluid. I couldn't unite make out what were the stuff floating in the liquid since it was quite dark.

"Hehehehe... Have you came to be measured for one of my special coffin?" I snapped around and there he was. The Undertaker. How did he get there? I could have sworn that there was no one beside me when I came in!? He walked up to me and hold my chin with his sleeve covered hand. He lifted my head til I was directly facing him so that he could get a better look at me. We were very close to each other.

"You would be one of the finest guest I have had. Hehehe." He said with his typical creepy laugh. I was trying so hard to hold in my fangirl scream because I knew that behind those fringe, he had those amazing green and yellow shinigami eyes. I think that he is possibly the hottest character in Kuroshitsuji. I mean have you seen him in the manga when he was in his shinigami mode!?

"No actually."

"Then why would a young maiden like you be here?"

"Ummm..." damn I totally forgot to think of why to say when I get here. But then an idea hit me. "Can I please work here, like as your helper or something?" I could tell that he was surprised by what I just said.

"You do know what I do here right?"

"Yeah, you deal with the corpses of the Underworld." I have never been scared of dead bodies or gore so I guess that I would be fine.

"Interesting! No one has ever ask to work here before but...hehehe...before that. You will have to bestow the finest laughter to me first!"

Oh no! I should have expected that! I wasn't very good at cracking jokes and I didn't know how else I would make him laugh. Then I remembered my phone. I had it in my jeans pocket from when I fell asleep on my bed last night. I took it out and looked through it to see if there was anything that could help. I found it. An internet cat video that I downloaded to my phone because I just couldn't stop laughing at it.

"Watch this." I hold my phone in front of Undertaker and pressed play. In the video an obese cat tried jumping from a table onto a sofa. But it failed horribly and went face first into a wall.

"AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!" Undertaker laughed so hard that the whole building shook. I couldn't help but laugh myself as well. "Haha....hehehe.... I have seen my Utopia."he said holding his stomach laying on top of a coffin. "Ah... That was the funniest thing I've seen in a long time. I would have liked it even more if the cat smashed his head open though. Hehe, I guess I could use some help here. So sure you can work here!"

I was honestly relieved that he didn't ask for a reason to why I wanted to work here cuz what was I gonna tell him? That I was from the 21st century in another world? I didn't want to lie to him either!

"Come with me! I'll show you how things work around here!" Undertaker jumped up and gestured me to follow him.
