A/N: I know what you're all thinking: another story? You still have a few others to update! And that's perfectly true. However, unlike the others, this one isn't on paper, so I'm much more motivated to type. I don' t think there'll be any pairings. Just humor. I'll admit, this first chapter isn't that funny. It's more of a prologue, actually. Enjoy! And please, at least give this story a chance. It gets much better later on, this is just more of an introductory chapter. So at least read the first...2 chapters, at least. Please?

Day 1

Being how this is a new notebook, I'll explain the basics. My name is Shonan Nazo. I have a sister, Hay-Lin, but she's just a braniac. No need to learn about her now. I am the Queen of the Underworld, though I leave most of the duties to Hades, including taking care and managing the pesky souls. I take care of the beasts, but they usually just do their own thing, leaving me to explore different places. Now let me explain. This was not my choice. I am not all-powerful. I don't necessarily like this job. Which is the reason I usually leave it to the others. The only reason I'm the queen is because I just so happen to host both a demon and a monster (one of the tailed beasts, to be exact. Even better, yay.) Neither was my choice. Chi no Akuma, the demon, is quite nice. Just like me, though a bit more perverted. She's been with me since my birth 18 years ago. Kurama no Biju, the monster, has been with me since I was 2 years old, when I accidentally interfered in a sealing ritual. I got the evil half. I'm not a nice person because of them. But that's only when I'm angry. Chi has grown to be like a best friend to me, Kurama like an older brother. There are times when I forget that he's there, actually. He's always really quiet, and doesn't do anything unless I'm furious. And now another matter to be cleared up. I'm sure you've all heard of Sebastian Michaelis, haven't you? He's not a demon. All demons are female. Opposite for monsters. Think of a chicken. Chicken is a general term, like beast, hen is for females, like demon, and rooster is for males, like monster. See? Easy. Sebastian is what we call a "New Demon." A few centuries ago, under the old king, a group of beasts decided to rebel and break away from the normal beasts and underworld. They shut themselves off from us, becoming an entirely new species. As the generations passed, the normal underworld wasn't mentioned at all, until it became forgotten by them. Now, where am I going with this, you ask? Hehe, I should get to the point, shouldn't I? Chi and I are going to be going to the headquarters of the Grim Reapers, to see if we could become like them. Since they guard all the souls with astute care, hating demons for stealing them away, it has become hard for Chi to have a decent meal. She's been attracting a bit of attention from those reapers lately, and it's becoming ahrd to avoid them. We want to have easy access. I want to bug the reapers, she wants the souls. So, we're going to steal them right out from the silly little reapers' noses. On missions to get their cinematic records, Chi can just take the souls instead! We've heard that there's a test, an entrance exam of sorts, to become a reaper. So, if we get to at least be accepted to take the test and become reapers-in-training, we pretty much get an all-you-can-eat buffet. Out first task, find the Shinigami offices. However, to do that, we'll need false names to enter. We don't want our names to ring any bells, now do we? I'll be going by the name Storm Whiston, and Chi shall be called Crimson Chattoway.

I shut my new notebook. Well, that was long. Hopefully, I'll never have to write that much again!

"Chi, I'm ready to leave!" Chi, peeked through the doorway, took one look at me, and 'tsk'ed in humor, shaking her head. When she was fully in the room, I saw her outfit. "Chi! Whatever are you wearing!" I exclaimed.

"Nothing more than is to be expected. We need to blend in, remember? And I sure as hell won't wear a dress! So, this is my only option." She was wearing a dark brown suit, not too formal, but not too poor, either. She had a black shirt under the vest, and black shoes. I noticed the heels and smirked.

"Still need some feminity, though, huh?"

"I'm still taller than you, though. Here, take this. You can't very well go to London dressed like that." I frowned. I wasn't that short! Was it so strange for an 18 year old to be 5'1"? …On second thought, don't answer that. Chi handed me a navy blue version of her outfit, the only difference was that the shirt was white instead of black.

"It's so formal!" I whined.

"It is the Victorian era, what do you expect?"

"Me to be able to use my katana…" Chi sighed. She was right. I was hopeless.

"What about your hair? Electric blue with black streaks stands out, you know."

"Leave my strange hair alone! It's not like black with red tips is any better! Besides, isn't there a weird reaper who has blood-red hair? If I wear a hat, I should be fine!"

"Okay then. Off to the center of London, then! All we have to do is wait at a place likely to have someone die!"

"A dark alley maybe? Lots of people get killed there!" I offered.

"Wonderful! Now put on your British accent, and let's go!" She cried, running ahead. I laughed, and followed her.

Luckily for us, we didn't have to wait long. After only half an hour of waiting, a man with a knife ran into our alley, chasing a frightened young girl. Well, not too young. Mid thirties, if I had to guess…Chi and I watched in utter delight as the murder unfolded. Don't judge us. Chi, seeing the mass amounts of blood, licked her lips. "not now, Chi!" I whispered. "We're here to find a Grim repaer, not have a snack! As hungry as I am…" We both sighed.

"Well, well? What do we have here? Two young girls at the scene of a murder? Oddly dressed, at that…" A tall man with short, neatly combed dark brown hair, yellowish-green eyes, rectangle-shaped glasses with four lines on each side of the frames, and a strange pruning pole loomed above us. He was dressed in a black suit, tie, black gloves, and dress shoes.

"Are you a Grim Reaper?" I asked. The man's eyes narrowed.

"How do you know that word?" he asked.

"We've come looking for you! We want to become Grim reapers, just like you, mister!" I said, smiling brightly.

"Indeed! We wish to be able to put justice in this harsh world! Justice to the dead, so they don't end up being eaten by those nasty demons!" Chi lied through her teeth, also smiling. The man sighed, using his pruning pole to push up his glasses. "This'll cost me overtime, I'm sure…Allow me to finish off this young lady and I'll take you to the Shinigami offices. Chi and I smiled.

"Thank you, Mr. Gardener!" We cried. Chi shares my liking for odd nicknames. They make the world go round! As soon as the grim reaper had completed his task, he turned to us.

"My name is William T. Spears. May I ask what you two are called?"

"I'm Crimson, and this is Storm. May I ask why you carry around that pruning pole? It seems like a big bother, if you ask me…" Chi answered.

"Well I didn't ask you. And to answer your question, it's my death scythe, not a pruning pole."

"Whatever you say, Mr. Gardener!" I smiled.

"Names?" The lady at the desk asked in a monotonous voice. I was sick of her already.

"Storm Whiston and Crimson Chattoway" I said, pointing at myself and Chi, respectively. I'll spare you the rest of the questions, as they are boring and have no meaning. All the answers were made up, anyways. The lady nodded when she was finished, stamped the large stacks of papers beside her, and handed us two pairs of identical glasses.

"Congratulations, you're now novice Grim Reapers." Joy. "Please report to this room to meet your guides and begin your tour of the facilities." She said, pointing to a location on the map. We nodded, took it, and began down the hall. I took one look at the map, decided it was a maze, and handed it to Chi.

"You're navigator!"

"Oh, all right then…"

Hooray! We've made it in! We're now official novice shingami! We've passed the first test of many. Soon, we'll meet out guides, annoy the crap out of them, get the tour, ditch them, and be on out merry way! Too bad these glasses are so hideous, though. It's an insult to someone who's vision is as perfect as mine!

~Shonan Nazo

A/N: So, how was it? Virtual cookies to anyone who can guess who their guides are! I've had this ida in my head for a while, now. Steal it and You're dead. I'm also here to help prove that a good Kuroshitsuji fanfic doesn't require Ciel or Sebastian. Especially not as main characters! Or the Trancy brat and his butler, either! I may put in some other less-noticed characters later, but I'm not sure. See you till next time! I seem to be losing readers, and I'm not sure why. If you're worried about the main characters, they're definately going to be in the story, they just won't be the major, plot-rotates-around-them characters. I like to focus on the lesser characters, like Drocell, the triplets, Snake, Ronald, Pluto, etc.
