This is a mix of different ideas I've had in mind for a long time that I've finally decided to write down to share with you all. It will have different mixtures and interpretations of things involving the Supernatural (Demons, ghosts, witches, ETC) with my own twists to the story. Things that will be in this story include: Supernatural (as stated above), Time Travel, and The Slayer (as stated below.)
I give credit to Joss Whedon for the idea of the Slayer in BTVS. I will be giving my own twist to it for this story.

Summer Blake: The Demon Slayer
Kuroshitsuji/Black Butler Fanfiction
Introduction Chapter
Summer Blake looks like any ordinary girl in the 21st century, but she isn't. Oh no, Summer is actually what they, the hunter's council, call "the Chosen one" or more commonly known by the name that strikes fear into demon's is "The Slayer."
A girl with brown hair and green eyes is walking through a graveyard at night. Summer is on a mission hunting for vampires, another type of demon that only comes out at night. The Slayer is a one girl chosen by random to be gifted with supernatural powers like Supernatural strength to match a demon, dream like visions of things to come, and super healing. They are meant to be like police for demons and make sure they follow the rules according to the contract. If they break the rules and eat souls willy nilly without making contracts to do so, the Slayer steps in and ends them. This goes for all types of demons.
Summer didn't want this at all, but she realized no matter how much she tried to run from it or ignore it, it would always follow her. It was her destiny and she couldn't stop it.
The Slayer walks out to the graveyard and looks around at all the graves. Uhhh, she didn't like it at all. Graveyards always gave her the chills. Its just how Death was with everyone.
Summer began to feel her slayer senses tingling, telling her to be on the lookout as something was going to jump out soon. She quickly turned around to see a Shinigami staring at her.
She jumped back a little, surprised by it. Ever since she was little, she has been able to see the grim reapers with their yellow-green eyes and glasses walking around and collecting people's cinematic records of their souls. They could only be visable to humans if they wanted to be or a person was close to death. She could see them all the time. She figured they either wanted to be seen by her or it was because of her destiny as the slayer.
The Shinigami gave her a blank, emotionless stare. It was pretty typical of them, though some of them showed emotions at times.
Summer put her hand on her hip "Hello. Look, I'm very busy trying to wait for this vamp to rise from it's grave. Once I kill it, then we can talk."
He gave a sigh "I understand, but I'm here on a mission right now. There is something I need you to do."
She raised her eyebrow "And what is that?"
"I'm only allowed to bend the rules this one time and one time only! You are suppose to go back in time. That is all I am allowed to tell you. You will be sent to the place you are needed to do your mission and you will go from there."
Summer shook her head at him "Wait. You want me to go back in time. Won't that cause a terrible effect to now?"
The shinigami pushed his glasses up to his face "You will realize the answer in time. Now, we will keep watch for the filthy demons here while you are away. I will touch your head and you will be sent to the time and place you are needed."
She looked to him with her wide green eyes "Whoa, hold on. Why me? Why do I have to do this?"
"It is your destiny."
Summer gave a sarcastic laugh "Oh great. I knew you were going to say that."
"Let's begin now." Summer stood still as he put his finger to her head. She felt a little zap as everything became black around her.
"Am I dead? Did he seriously just con me out of my life?" Summer looked around the dark place but didn't see anything. "Might as well start walking and find an exit...if there is one."
She began to raise her foot forward as her shoe tapped against something.
"Who's there?" A young boy called out.
"Uhh...Summer. My name is Summer. I'm not quite sure where I am."
"Claude!"
She heard someone else's voice as they talked to the boy. It was then when she had her slayer senses tingling big time. The boy was in danger!
"Hey boy! You're in danger. That man is a-" Suddenly there was light as the door opened and their was a butler with glasses holding a candle and he looked at her. "Demon."
Claude's eyes flashed quickly as Summer went into a defense stance.
The young boy, who got up off the bed, walked up to her. He had blond short hair and blue eyes. He was wearing his nightgown. "You know about demons?"
Summer nodded "Well...you could actually say I'm like the police for them. Are you in a contract with him?"
Claude's eyes widened a bit, realizing who she was. He had only heard stories about the demon slayer but had never actually met her. She wasn't what he imagined.
The blonde boy raised an eyebrow at her "Yes I am." He walked over to his demon butler, softly petting him like you would a dog. "This here is my Claude." He then stuck out his tongue which showed the mark of his contact to him. "He is loyal to me and only me if that is your concern." He laughed looking to Claude, "I didn't know demon's had police!"
Claude pushed his glasses up to his face, keeping his calm demenaor. "Yes we do. What do you wish me to do with this girl your Highness?" He wanted to get rid of her. Having the demon slayer here was already annoying. He had his plans and didn't want her interfering with them.
The boy gave a smirk and thoughtful look to Summer. "Hmmm? Nothing! She will stay here as our guest." He ran up to her with a bright smile, taking her hands in his. "I wish to know more about you and your life policing demons."
Summer looked to him shocked, blinking her eyes. She was taken by surprise at the whole thing. "Uhh...ok then. Do you mind telling me where I am exactly and your name?"
"I'm Alois Trancy and this is the Trancy manor! I thought you would've known that since you snuck into my closet."
Summer scratched her head giving a nervous laugh "Yeah...that's a whole other story."
"And why are you dressed that way? Only whore's dress that way."
She looked to Alois with her eyes glared. "Excuse me? That's very rude!"
He gave her an innocent look. "It's true though. Ladies in this time don't dress like that at all unless they are whores. Are you one of them as well?"
"No! This is how people in my time dress! Wearing a skirt and tank top is not a bad thing!"
Alois' face brightened in excitement "Are you from a different time?"
Claude's eyes narrowed a bit. So that's why this girl seemed a bit off, besides being the slayer. She was from a different time.
Summer debated about telling him. Was she even allowed to tell him? She would have to since she kinda blabbed about it already. "Uh yes. In the future. What year is this exactly?"
"1889, London."
"EEEEP! I'm in Victorian London!" He sent me here of all places?
"How did you end up here anyway? Do you always travel to different times?"
Oh boy, how was she going to get out of this one? She couldn't tell him who sent her so she would have to lie about it. "Oh yes! I just used a magic spell to get here. I'm surprised I ended up here though, especially in your closet."
She looked over to the demon who gave her a knowing look that told he knew she was lying. She gave a look back telling him she had a good reason and would explain later.
Alois gave an amused laugh "That sounds like so much fun! I'm happy you ended up here!"
Summer looked to him with wide eyes as she saw saw the sadness in his eyes, his soul, that he had hidden behind that happy mask he wore. She didn't like it when she ended up seeing glimpses of people's souls. She could feel all the pain or happiness they went through during the moment of that glimpse and it affected her. People would think of her as being a freak for suddenly crying or laughing when it happened, so she learned to keep it bottled up but still help them.
"Is it just you and your butler here or do you have others that live with you?"
His expression turned sad, now expressing the feelings in his soul. "Yes, but they are just my servants. I don't have any family, they all died. It was very tragic."
"It must be lonely..."
"Yes, it is." A smile than came to his face. "But I have my dear Claude here with me so I'm not alone!"
A sad smile came to her lips. "It's good that you have him then." She gave the demon butler a small smile and her eyes narrowed, telling him that he better not hurt the boy in anyway. Her eyes then returned to Alois. "I know how it feels to be lonely. My family died when I was little and well...I've been in the foster care system ever since."
"Foster care?"
Summer gave a small smile "It's pretty much like an orphanage. You do have orphanage's here, right?"
Alois' eyes widened and so did Claude's at her asking that question. He knew it was a sensitive subject for his master. "Yes, I've been in one before...before my now dear deceased father took me in here."
The slayer looked to him with sadness in her eyes. "I'm sorry for bringing it up Alois."
The young boy gave a bright smile again. "It's alright, you didn't know any better."
Claude looked to his master "Highness, it is time you went back to sleep."
Alois looked to his butler and sighed. "Fine. Claude show...it was Autumn wasn't it?"
"No, Summer."
"Show Summer to her room she will be staying in for now." As the two of them began leaving the room, the young boy gave Summer one last look with a grin. "Also get her some appropriate clothes if you can."
The Slayer looked to the butler demon with a glare, both walking in the dark hallway lit by the candle Claude held. "Let's get one thing straight, as long as you behave, I'll behave. And no way am I wearing one of those death traps for internal organs that you call a corset!"
Claude looked to her, amused. She was very bold talking to him in that way. He was finding this girl entertaining by the minute, but he would have to keep a close eye on her. He didn't want her ruining his plans for his master.
They had both finally arrived to the room. He opened to door for her as she entered. It was a beautiful, big room, just like the ones you see in pictures of the Victorian houses. The room was painted white with some purple and gold to the outlings. The bed looked super comfy as Summer found herself yawning.
"I will send Hannah, the maid up to help you prepare for bed." The demon butler told her.
"Is Hannah another demon as well?" Summer asked bitterly.
Claude looked to her nonchalant. "Yes my lady."
"Are there any other demons here as well?" The Slayer's senses were going off big time. It felt like at least 4 or more demons.
"Yes. All of the staff are demons."
The brunette girl looked to him with wide eyes than narrowed them. "Talk about a house of hell."
Claude left to go get Hannah to help Summer get to bed. As Summer waited in her room, she began to lay on her bed. She was deep in thought, trying to figure out why the Shinigami sent her here of all places.
"So this is the place where I'm suppose to do my mission? But what am I suppose to do?" She mumbled to herself as she looked outside. Summer didn't want to keep doing this. She greatly disliked this stupid destiny crap and would wonder why God chose her to be the next one called. They say God has a plan for all of us and is trying to help us no matter. Maybe, in someway, this was his way of doing so for her. Maybe she was meant to do something spectaculiar.
Didn't mean she had to like it though.
She began to feel her eyes drooping as she fell asleep.
Outside the room, the 5 demons of Trancy manor watched her sleep. They were all taking in the sight of their enemy, The Slayer. Hannah looked to her with a glare "I've met the Slayer before. How could she be here again?"
"She is not from our time. She is from the future."
The triplets let out a whisper of an awe.
"So she's here on a mission, but doesn't know what to do?" A devious smirk came to the demon butler's face along with a plan in mind. "I have one for her."
They all looked to him with a questionable look, wondering what it was.
"She can help us with taking out Sebastian Michaelis."
The triplets let out another whisper of an awe over his clever plan.
Then while she is distracted by him, I can put the second part of my plan into action. Claude thought to himself. The Slayer could actually come in handy. Besides this girl didn't seem like anything special, unlike the other slayers. She was just a girl bestowed with a power she didn't know how to use.
Oh boy, they were about to find out how wrong they were.
