Elodie stood on the top of a house, her Death Scythe held securely in her hand as she pulled out the book she would need from the little pocket inside of her blazer as the wind stirred her hair gently and the bottom of her blazer slightly as she looked at the name, her green eyes practically glowing in the dark as her lips pressed into a thin line as she read the name. Elora Hale, she had been a single mother, not much older than Elodie who had been killed in a little disagreement with her ex-husband who conveniently wasn't in town any more and she sighed gently never liking these sort of jobs. She jumped down from the roof falling to the ground almost soundless except for the soft click of her heels as she landed on the cobble stone ground then turned facing the door and pushed it open gently.

She walked inside the house only to be welcomed with the metallic scent of blood as she walked forward, blood smears along the wall and a trail leading to the kitchen which was where Elora had crawled away too only to die rather tragically. She pulled out her stamp then as she watched the cinimatic records swoosh out of the woman's body the glow was soft yet bright as she watched the memories then pressed her stamp down marking complete by her name and she finished her business then walked outside. She shut the door gently then stood there for a good couple of minutes shutting her eyes as the breeze fluttered by her again and around her bringing a sweet crisp scent with it and she let her lips pull up into a smile after the corner of her lips twitched a few times.

She opened her eyes slowly again as her eyes glow in the darkness, her glasses throwing back the light of the crescent moon, her hair black like ink and pale skin making her look like a corpse and the darkness of her clothes didn't help but with all the black her eyes really did glow. She began to walk down the street, her shoes clicking softly with her steps as her hair ghosted up and over her shoulders, her eyes down cast at the ground which caused her lashes to lower concealing her eyes as she walked and she blew out a soft breath that stirred a couple of whisp's of hair by her mouth.

She paused knowing she needed to get back to Head Quarters but it DID smell like rain and it'd take to long to get to HQ in time without getting soaked and having to listen to her "Uncle" William T. Spears lecture her about getting back in time before the rain. She looked straight ahead, a yearning to go to the Phantomhive manor was nearly consuming her and she smiled as she began to walk faster then broke out into a sprint, then a jog and a run finally. Her hair began to fly over her shoulders and in her eyes a bit but she didn't mind that.

She turned a right corner only to slam into someone which shocked her and she cried out as she fell towards the hard ground her eyes a bit wide but a hand shot out which was connected to an arm that wrapped around her waist tightly and securely as it pulled her up right. Her eyes widened as the familiar cold atmosphere of a demon made her muscles clench but even as that happened she turned her head despite her good sense telling her not too and her eyes met bright gold eyes that gleamed down at her from behind a pair of glasses. He had black hair that had a messy look to it and he had a cold expression on his face that was emotionless but her eyes widened with panic and she pulled away as her hair fell in her face slightly, her earring stud and two hoops shinning in each of her ears as she stared at the demon.

"You really should look where you're running too." The demon said speaking with a cool, almost cold way as he looked down at her but she scowled a little bit in return as she crossed her arms over her breasts.

"Even if I have to look where I'm going you should have said something!" She snapped out before stepping around him and taking off running again, her arms pumping at her sides as she ran down the street, her shoes clicking much louder against the ground.

When the dirt road leading to the manor came into view Elodie ran even faster her breath coming in little pants as she full blown ran towards the manor. She felt happiness as she ran up to the manor her hair streaming behind her like a black cape as she ran and her blazer burst open but she didn't mind it and she kept running until the familiar blonde head of Finny, the gardener came into view and she stopped placing her hands on her knees panting out softly then stood up right and walked towards the front door, her heels making crunching sounds as she walked catching her breath slowly even as her heart pounded to a jagged hard rhythm and Finny rushed to the edge of the lawn where a few bushes were as his turquoise eyes sparkled softly.

"Hello, Elodia!" He said cheerfully, his smile so bright and infectious that she couldn't help but smile back at him, her cheeks flushing just a tiny bit as she brushed her messy dark hair behind her ears.

"Hello Finny." She said in response smiling at him a bit more as she played with the ends of her hair looking at the blonde boy who smiled at her sweetly.

"How are you today, if I may ask." He said rather politely making Elodia chuckle gently in a way that honestly made her sound like Sebastian so much that even she could recognize she sounded like her father.

"I'm fine Finny, how about you? Work been to much?" She asked tilting her head smiling at him and he just shook his head, his straw hat moving a little bit around his neck as he shook his head.

"Nope! It's been nice and peachy here!" Finny said brightly making Elodia laugh a little bit then he smiled a bit softer looking at her with those eyes that honestly made some part of her melt the way they always did. "You should get in there, your father's been waiting for you I guess. Not that I know how he knew you were coming but you shouldn't keep him waiting."

"I know. Thank you for talking with me." Elodia said sounding very grateful and sweet towards Finny who smiled brightly once again.

"Any time!" He said and she grinned then turned walking to the front doors pulling it open gently, then walked in to see Mey-Rin being scolded by her father and Bard standing in the door way with dark ashy skin and an afro, which were signs he blew the kitchen up. Again.

"And again I specifically told you how to wash the young masters sheets and you're not to use thirty cups of detergent but three cups of it! It's this mistake you keep on making over and over again and I'm honestly-" Sebastian sid sounding angry and Mey-rin's eyes grew watery making Elodie feel bad since the maid did help her on more than one occasion so she decided it was time to make her entrance.

"Hey!" She shouted loudly cutting off Sebastian's words and his heae snapped his head to the left to look at his daughter who let the door shut with a soft thud. She flashed a look at Mey-Rin and Bard who disappeared quickly as Sebastian walked towards Elodie sighing.

"You know better than to do that." Sebastian said in t he same scolding tone but much softer and gentler strange as it was coming from a demon but she didn't care. Sebastian was the one demon that Elodia wasn't scared of so she just stepped forward throwing her arms around him hugging him tight as her head rested against his chest.

"And it's nice to see you too, Papa." She said gently using the term of endearment she used to call her father who sighed as though he'd decided not to even scold her for that and he stroked her long dark hair softly as he wrapped an arm around her.

Signs of affection such as this were very strange to see a demon do but there wasn't anything Sebastian could really do to resist do anything, she was his daughter! Technically half of him and that meant she wa shalf demon, which meant he was always going to feel a pull towards her to protect and even love her the way he did. Though it made him shudder to think this lovely little thing was created on a night he'd been more out of his mind than usual and that she was half of him but also half GRELL he was. . kind of happy he had a child strange as that was for a demon to think but she was perfect in every sense of the word and Sebastian found himself becoming proud of whatever she did.

"Did you check in with William?" Sebastian asked as he pulled back slightly though his arm was still around her, his hand still mid stroke of her hair as she looked up at him with her green eyes and a sheepish smile.

"No I didn't. It was going to rain which it's beginning too and I didn't want to go and get scolded by him and would rather spend the night with you and Ciel." She said in a slight squeakish tone as though he would just push her out which he'd done before but he just sighed shaking his head then thumped the back of her head softly or at least he thought it was soft and she winced.

"Come on then, I'll get your room prepared while you go and talk to Ciel then." Sebastian sighed out as he walked forward towards the stairs his footsteps muted and Elodia followed after the demon smiling secretly to herself that she could stay and she was honestly happy her father showed her that rare moment of affection. They climbed up the stairs together slowly without talking and when he went to the right she went to the left going up the small stars quickly then down the hall, her blazer blowing open gently along with her hair blowing off her shoulders lightly like it did when she walked and she reached Ciel's study knocking softly.

"Come in!" Ciel called out sounding a bit snappish and irritated but when Elodia pushed open the door he seemed rather pleased instead quickly as she walked in then shut the door gently. "Hello Elodia."

"Hello, Ciel." She replied sitting in a chair which had been placed in front of the desk, her back straight and her eyes were cool but she couldn't help smiling at him crookedly.

"So, I mean to ask you though you are half Shinigami and half demon you would like to stay here?" He asked, getting straight to the point his right eye staring a hole into her and she felt nervous but she nodded gently.

"I would. I don't like sleeping at Head Quarters where the rooms have zero privacy and plus it's more. . fun to be here." Elodia said a bit slowly trying to keep the surprise out of her tone, after all she didn't think it would be straight to the point but then again Ciel Phantomhive always was straight to the point.

"I see. Well let me think it over and I'll let you have an answer in the morning." Ciel said tapping his finger tips together and Elodia smiled. You could say she really loved Ciel a lot but she knew he was in love with her father not that she was judging in any way shape or form, after all her mother was a male.

"Alright, thank you Ciel." She said giving a little bow then turned walking to the door pulling it open to see Sebastian standing there and she moved to the side letting him in and she dashed out knowing exactly where her room was and she smiled to herself.

She couldn't help but feel happy at the idea of living in the Phantomhive manor. However in the back of her mind the encounter she'd shoved back there was stirring and she felt a strange pang in her heart at the thought of those cold emotionless gold eyes and she frowned gently then walked to her bedroom door and shut it behind her wondering why it was that demon was sticking to her mind when it was just one little run in they'd had.

She frowned then shook her head pulling her blazer off then loosened her tie and kicked off her shoes then climbed on the bed resting her head on the pillow taking her glasses off resting them on the little table by the bed and she blew out the candle that was flickering there and she closed her eyes but even as she drifted to sleep the demon flickered across her mind and she allowed sleep to take her.
