"Jack the reaper, strikes again"Lau reads off the newspaper
" what!"ciel asks as i pour in his tea.
"there was also 10 dead bodies but there was no wounds or marks."Lau reads off.i close my eyes, damn s/n.
"my lady, is there something wrong?" Sebastian asks as i roll my eyes
"don't call me that"i mumbled, ciel looks at me.his eyes on the patch on my cheek and neck.since sebastian was the one who dressed him, ciel didn't see it.sebastian questioned it too, but i choose to ignore
" what happened to your cheek...and neck?"he says pointing at my cheek.i gave a soft smile
"nothing young lord.just ran into an wild animal"i say, feeling sebastian eyeing me.i turn my head towards him and gave him a blank stare
"i guess viscount wasn't our man" madam red says.i excused myself and walked out of the room.as i walked down the hall i felt someone behind me."yes Sebastian"i ask turning around.
" my lady, what really happened?it worries me-"he asks.i cross my arms and scoffed
"i went for a walk"i say suddenly i was pinned to the wall.
"then who was that lady last night"he whispers in my ear.
"no one important.now give me space"i say in annoyance.
" no one important?it seems like you both have a deep hatred for each other"he says.his face was really close to my face.
"instead of stalking other servants why don't you let me make something sweet for the young lord"i say as i pushed him away from me.i walked away but he followed along
" would you like to explain to me who caused the other 10 dead bodies?"he asks as my eye twitches.
"i don't need to explain to you"i say as i walked to the kitchen
-
i sat next to Sebastian in ciel's studies while we pretended to look through the papers for the case.my eyes scanning over the paper repeatly as madam red played chess with ciel.they were both comparing life and chess.
eventually madam red lost, i followed behind her as she lade her way to the front door.i grab madam's coat and handed to her."i got it dear, thank you"she says with a smile as she puts on her coat.
i smiled and bowed "y/n"i tilt my head up towards her"promise me that you won't leave Ciel's side, the world is dangerous and i don't want him to be a bad person when he grows.he is already taking a big responsiblity for a child, pleas try to help him enojy being a child while he is one"she says with a troubled face
i smiled "that is the only reason i am here.and i promise with my life to never leave ciel's side.i myself is surprised to see how ciel is all mature at his age, surely he still has a child side to it"i say, she smiles, but still her troubled face still laced inside her expression.she took a step towards me, hugging me
"thank you dear"she says before letting go.she waves before going in her carriage , i watched her go to her carriage.steping inside, the door closed and she left.
"i still can't believe you are the criminal we are looking for, damn grell, leaving me out on the fun"i sigh before closing the door.
-
"well?"ciel asks.he pushed his covers down to sit up as i entered inside.sebastian hands ciel the papers we were looking through.
"no matter how many time we go through them, the results remain the same"i say watching ciel reading the papers.
"but viscount can't be it and we have another murder we have to deal with.10 body found dead"ciel complains.it annoyed me how i have to clean up my sister's mess, my older sister's.it's just annoys me because i don't want others- especally ciel to know about my sister's existance.just by a certain grim reaper, he keeps comparing me and s/n, she is the one killing not me and yet i am to blame.
"master, i know the other murder for the 10 bodies"i say, my eyes on him, ignoring the stare of sebastian on me.ciel turns his head from the papers to me
"who?"he questions, my jaw clenched, already a honest-lie ready to be said.i took a breath, i bow
"i am deeply sorry for my actions. my uncontrolable anger got the best of me, i have no excuse for what happened, i am very sorry my lord"i say, my eyes glued to the ground.i could hear s/n's laugh echoing in my ear, laughing that i am 'defending' her
"it was you?"ciel questions, unsure if i'm lying or not."but don't you need to need to make a contract with the person to take their soul?"ciel asks.i lift my body up, i stare at ciel, i smiled.
" there are demons are powerful enough to take souls with or without making a contract-i am surprised that y/n is that strong,my lord"Sebastian says, ignoring my glare
"i'm simply one hell of a demon" i mocked.

i leaned against a wall, watching water driptlets fall from the sky to the ground with soft sounds.i held out my hand, the rain soaking my glove, "if i am correct the next victim should be here"sebastian states.
my eyes moved to ciel who wearing unformal clothing, sorta strange to see him in clothing besides his dress clothing"but i still don't understand why he would kill them-"ciel was intruppted by a female scream nearby."how could have someone came pass us!"ciel questioned as we ran to the house where the scream was heard.
ciel ran to the door and slammed it open without a second thought.the door revealed a gruesome scene of a dead women.her blood dripping down the floor to the steps, her dull eyes staring at the outside, outside where she wasn't able to escape her killer.i running over to him, my hand covered his eye and pulled him back, away from the house.depsite this being his job, it wasn't 'out of place' when he saw blood or dead bodies.but yet it made me gulity that i couldn't hide that sight from him, he saw a glimp sight
"you made quite the mess, jack the reaper..."sebastian says, we both watched as a figure slowly made it's way out of the house "or should i say grell sutcliff"sebastian finishes, the sight of a bloody grell stood before us.
"now you got it wrong.i came to h-help,but-"he stuttered
"drop the act grell, you may be a good actor for a butler but you can't fool me" i narrowed my eyes
"your actually the first person, i met someone like your kind in the human world"sebastian contuines
"such role, you actually played along, not too bad of a job.but i wonder, what was it in for you? "i ask, watching grell pulls ribbon that held his hair, his finger pulling off his round glasses
"you think so?such praise from you, i shall cherish it until i die"grell asks, a nasty smirk grew on his face, blood and water dripped down his face."how kind of you, my little yang.you knew and yet you didn't treat me differently"he says.i watched as he pulls out a comb from his jacket, sliding in his hair, turning his hair from shit brown to a bright red color.i now realized that ciel already got out of my coverage.
" of course i couldn't, my master didn't order me to tell him who it was so i had to play along as a fooled servant, also if you don't to go blind until you get another pair, don't call me that" he eyes move towards me.
"why?you used to be a fawn of the name, now it's a bitter reminder isn'tthat what you told me?but i just wanted to see how you'll react"Grell smiles."you both are playing 'faithful' dogs, aren't you?"grell asks as he pulls out red rectangle glasses with red beaded string."well sebastian, you are handsome enough to get away with it.y/n you're my best friend so i won't a big deal out of it either"he slips on his glasses
"then grell if you knew any better you won't be doing anything that'll get me mad" i smiled, but of course my words went deaf to him
"wait no, i call you sebastian, bassy"grell says flipping his hair to the side."bassy, my dearest y/n, let me show you my real self"grell says before posing "the burnett butler, grell sutcliff"grell declares in a way people would call 'kawaii'. "i hope we can get along"he blows a kiss to sebastian, who shuddered in disgust."it is so nice to talk to you in my normal form.i admit i was surprised when i met you two demons playing maid and butler.mostly you little yang, i thought u would be like little yin,"he smirks.
i sigh, "we don't speak of her, your very much aware of it, who are you planning on telling?" i questioned, rubbing my eyes.my eyes noticed the face of confusion on ciel and Sebastian's faces.
"y/n what is this man talking about"ciel asks finally wanting answers but i didn't answer
"what about you?a grim reaper playing as a stupid butler, aren't you supposed to be harvesting the dead in slience?"i glared at him.
"well...i did it out of love for a women"Grell says catching ciel's attention.
"who would that be?"Sebastian ask.
"yes i'm curious on who wanted to date with someone who also acted like a suidical person?" i questioned
"you don't really need to ask, do?"another voice came from the inside of the house.slow footsteps making her way to the front, ciel's eye widen as he saw madam red.
