6 Months Earlier

Chloe was running for her life through the streets of London. She had gone for a walk to clear her head after a long day and she ended up at the wrong place at the wrong time and she saw something that she shouldn't have.

Current

Ciel was seated at his desk looking at his newest order from the queen. "Sebastian, get the carriage we are going to the townhouse for a few day while I solve this case."

The butler who had been standing quietly beside him bowed. "Right away master." He walked from the room to quickly complete his orders.

Ciel stood up and walked out of his office. As he walked down the hallway to the stairs he was thinking about the unusual message his queen had left him at the bottom of his order.

There is a girl that witnessed one of the events. Her family's name is Knight make sure she tells no one of what she saw. It does not matter how you keep her from talking.

Sebastian was waiting at the bottom of the stairs when Ciel got there. The two of them walked out to the carriage and Sebastian helped him inside before climbing up front and taking the reigns.

"Sebastian we need to find a murderer. Her majesty is deeply troubled by the happenings in London. Young men and women alike have been going missing for weeks before there bodies turn up almost beyond recognition." Sebastian nodded to his master. "Yes sir, are we to go see Undertaker then?" Ciel turned to the window. "That's correct."

Ciel looked out the window of his carriage at the passing fields and trees he sighed as he watched the scenery turn into the city. He felt the carriage slow to a stop and his butler opened the door to help him out of carriage. Ciel and Sebastian walked inside the funeral parlor. Undertaker was carving on a casket. "Earl Phantomhive, finally come to be fitted for your casket?" He chuckled not looking up from his work.

"No, I'm on a case and I need information from you."

Undertaker put down his tools and grinned from ear to ear. "Very well then, if you want information then you're going to have to make me laugh."

Sebastian sighed. "Master, please step outside I will take care of this. Do not come back in until I tell you." Ciel sighed in annoyance but went outside. A few moments passed by and Undertaker's laughter could be heard from within. Sebastian opened the door. "You can come in now master." Ciel scowled. "Took you long enough." He walked past his butler and looked at the still hysterical Undertaker.

"I need to know what you know about your last 5 customers." Ciel said seriously.

Undertaker thought for a moment. "Oh yes, they all seemed to once be lovely people. The women were particularly beautiful. The odd thing is none of them were raped and their hands were left in perfect condition, save for one thing."

Ciel waited expectantly when nothing more came he began to get annoyed. "What one thing?"

Undertaker held up his ring finger on his left hand. "They're all missing this finger."

Ciel was puzzled. "Why one Earth would they be missing their ring finger?"

Undertaker looked at Ciel with a grin. "From what I've gathered all of then left their lovers standing at the alter never to be wed, and they all went missing one week after they were supposed to say 'I do'. That's all I know." He turned and went back to his carving.

Ciel nodded. "Sebastian I need you to go to all the ex-lovers and find out what they can tell you. We will start there for our list of suspects, after that I need you to go to the house of Knight and bring me their daughter." Sebastian bowed. "Yes Master."

An hour later Sebastian returned with a stack of papers and a girl. Ciel looked up from his desk and stood. "Hello, I am Ciel Phantomhive, Earl of Phantomhive." The girl curtsied. "I am Chloe Elizabeth Knight, it is a pleasure to meet you."

Ciel looked at Chloe, she had long black hair which flowed down her shoulders in gentle waves. Her eyes were a deep color which seemed to be black, but he assumed it was the bad lighting in his sitting room. Her dress was well fitted to her petite frame and a lovely shade of scarlet red which made her porcelain skin look lovely. If he had to guess he would assume the girl was between 17 to 20 years old.

"Earl Phantomhive, may I ask why it is you brought me here?" Her sing-song voice snapped Ciel out of his trance. "Call me Ciel; you saw something a while back and I need to know what exactly that was."

Chloe looked at him with cool knowing eyes. "I saw a woman being murdered, by three men in what looked like church robes. They were behind the grand Cathedral just at the edge of London. I assume the robes they wore belonged to the church, though I didn't exactly stay to ask questions." She pauses for a moment. "There is one thing though, these men had unusual eyes."

Ciel looked at her. "Unusual how?" Chloe looked up from the floor. "They were glowing a strange shade of purple. It was unlike anything I had ever seen before." Sebastian stiffed behind her and instantly Ciel knew that they had to be dealing with demons.

A/N: I know its short. Let me know what you think and I'll try to get the next chapter posted ASAP.
