Chapter 1

It was just a chilly fall day here in New York where I met her, Rinmaru Himaji. She was the newest transfer student at my high school, so I wanted to make a good impression. Hello, I am Ciel Phantomhive, earl of Phantomhive, and I'm just your typical freshman. I know what you're thinking, how am I going to public school in America? Well, just about everyone thought I was too young to handle the company and the estate by myself, so they shipped me off here. As for right now, Sebastian is my 'legal guardian'. Though, enough about me, this is the story of how I met one of the most interesting humans on this earth.

Now, this may be confusing to a lot of people, but she is a vampire. She has long, pure white hair and scarlet red eyes. Her skin is of the lightest tint of ivory, as well. She has the body of a senior, but she is definitely stated as a freshman. Though, all of that is when you break off the seal and release her true form. In all reality, her eye color is purple while her hair is short and jet black. When she isn't a vampire, she has the body of a sophomore.

It is stated on her permanent record that she is a male, though that is because her twin brother had applied to this school but died in a car crash when he left, along with both her mother and father. As for that tragedy, she cut off her long dark hair and currently takes on the appearance and personality of her late twin brother. Now, how do you suppose I, earl of Phantomhive, would know that this young human is indeed female? It all started at gym class. Before class had started, I was the only one there, as I had thought. I had been given the distinct task as to bring warm towels to the men's locker room, and as you may have guessed, was called a peeping tom after looking at Rinmaru with bandages over her chest area. When she said that, her voice became clear and it sounded as though it was a young miss.

I then covered my eyes with the warm towels and froze in my tracks. "I SWEAR I DIDN'T MEAN TO LOOK," I said worriedly. She blushed after she was done changing. "So…now you know…I'm sorry…It's a very long story," she said lightly. She sighed and then looked me in the eyes. "Please don't tell anyone about me being a female, alright? I'm doing this for my brother… I need to do it for him…" After telling me the full story on what had happened, she sat down on the ledge.

"I'm so sorry, for, well, you know, calling you a peeper. You aren't one, well, at the very least as far as I know," she said sweetly. It was then I knew I needed to keep the secret; I couldn't break that bond. Rinmaru trotted off to her spot in line and the guys flooded the locker room. I followed slowly afterwards to her. I looked into her eyes and said, "If you ever need a place to stay, the Phantomhive household would be happy to oblige." After school, I walked with Ms. Himaji to the new Phantomhive estate. She stared in awe of the large white house with the glorious garden in the front and back yards that Sebastian had done in the spring.

Just then, Marissa, Cecilia, Ruby, and Jasper, the children of the family, prior to myself, had run out of the house chasing after one another. Rinmaru giggled at the small children and Marissa stopped in her tracks. "Hi there, Ciel, is this your girlfriend or something?" Rinmaru tried to hold back her giggles. It was amazing how the twelve-year-old had actually seen that Rinmaru was a female just by looking at her. Raven, our governess, and Sebastian walked out of the house smiling at the twins, Ruby and Jasper, as they played leap-frog near the daisies. Surprisingly, Rinmaru caught the attention of Raven as our governess had stepped down from the hand-crafted porch.

"Well, well, well, the little brat brought home his girlfriend to meet us, eh? Well, it's very nice to have met you, Ms.-""Rinmaru Himaji. You must be the beautiful governess, Raven, is that correct?" Raven stared a tad confused, and then she looked over at me in silence. "This is my third day in America, so I'm trying to be nice to everyone I meet, Ms. Silverwolf." Raven looked back at Rinmaru in awe then gave her a tight hug. She invited Rinmaru to stay for dinner, and then asked her for her story. Rinmaru paused before saying, "Well, it's a long story. I came here from Shinjuku, Japan with my mother, father, and twin brother. The day before he was scheduled to go to the same school as Ciel and I, my mother, father, and brother died in a car accident. I cut off my long hair and dressed like a male and took the place as my brother. You see, I need to look like this in order to fulfill my brother's last wish: to get a well-balanced education. If it's all the same to all of you, would it be too much to ask for a room at this estate? I don't have anywhere else to go and I truly feel like I'm home with all of you, even though it is my first day meeting all of you."

"We'd be happy to give you a room, Rinmaru," said Sebastian and Raven. Rinmaru had tears in her eyes from what was just told to her. "We'll take your bags up to your room," said Cecilia and Marissa, grabbing Rinmaru's large bag that had clothes and necessities in it. Rinmaru wiped her tears away. "Thank you, all of you. I can't ask for more than this. I feel safe here," she said. Just then, the doors swung open and a dark figure entered the room. "Ah, the Phantomhive estate, renovation 1938, I see," said Claude, whom was carrying the annoying twit, Alois Trancy.

Alois hopped down from his butler and walked towards me with a gun in his hand. "I'll be quick about this and- my lord, you've got yourself a beautiful lady. I wonder what Ms. Elizabeth would say about this little tart here, oh, but wait a second, a killed the bloody gal at your engagement party!" His disgusting cackle could be heard a mile away. "Now, instead of what I was going to do to you, Ciel, I'm going to shoot your new girlfriend in the heart to break yours!" The blonde twerp pointed the silver pistol at Rinmaru. As he pulled the trigger, I pushed Rinmaru back from the flying bullet but took off the cross on her rosary necklace. Just then, bats flooded the entire room and over her body, bringing her up in the air, causing her hair to grow at its full length and pure white, along with her body becoming much more famine and larger than her previous body, and her eyes changed to a deep scarlet color.

"Alright, you bloody idiot, I'm not going to pull any punches on someone who shoots a bullet at me. I think it's about time you learned your place!" After what seemed to be ten minutes of Rinmaru beating the living hell out of the blonde moron, her finishing blow had been a powerful kick in the crotch and chest, leaving Alois to fall to the ground in utter pain. "Don't mess with me!" She looked at Claude with, by my observation, a death glare to the soul, before he picked up the bleeding Alois and leaving the grounds of the estate. Rinmaru looked at me. "So now you know something new about me, earl of Phantomhive. I'm a vampire, but only when I'm unsealed." She grabbed the cross from my shaking hands. "You're the only one who can bring me back out, Ciel. Remember that when we come across an enemy. Now, with that said, I bid you all a good evening," she said as she put the cross back on her rosary necklace.

She looked like she was going to fall, so I caught her. She looked like how she did before Trancy and Claude showed up fifteen minutes ago. She looked me in the eyes and said, "I'm sorry if I caused any damage. I swear, if I broke anything, I'll give you the money to repair the damages once I get a job!" She looked nervous, but I calmed her down by giving her a light peck on the cheek. "Relax, Rinmaru, you're alright. You didn't break anything except for Alois' balls and a few of his ribs," I said grinning. She smiled back. After all of that was said and done, Raven put the food away and brought Rinmaru to her room.

"We're all very lucky that you could join our family, Ms. Himaji. You really made us feel safe when you took care of Alois and Claude this evening. I really didn't know that you had all of that in you." "To be honest with you, Raven, I didn't either. This was the first time that I've ever fought using my vampire abilities." Raven tucked Rinmaru in and kissed her forehead before leaving her side. "Pleasant dreams, Rinmaru, and welcome to the family." Ms. Himaji smiled and said good night before Raven turned the lights off and closed the door behind her. "You know, little brat, you chose a good girl," said Raven. I smiled and went to bed.

Alright you guys, first ever chapter of Cross and a Contract! Yes, yes, I know what you're all thinking; this is a crossover between Rosario+Vampire and Black Butler. Well, indeed you are sort of correct. I made Rinmaru a lot like Moka Akashiya while Ruby, Raven, Cecilia, Jasper, and Marissa were all characters made up by PurpleDragon6 (one of my best friends, which you should check out her stories, they're flippin' awesome!)! Okay, I should shut up now before I do the Disclaimer so you all won't get mad at me, though I want to point out this before I do: I made up this story all on my own, so if anyone else used the name Rinmaru Himaji for their crossover of Rosario+Vampire and Black Butler (more of Black Butler, though), don't tell me that I copied off of their ideas. That happened with another story of mine, "I'm In Love with the Enemy", and I really don't want that to happen again. DISCLAIMER: I don't own or make money off of Rosario+Vampire or Black Butler.

The majority of the characters that aren't from the manga or anime series are all OC made by my friend PurpleDragon6 and I. I really hope you all look forward to the next chapter, if I don't get writers' block! I also changed the setting to modern day New York instead of London. Also, I made Ciel fourteen-fifteen years old, the same age as Rinmaru. Review, favorite, and subscribe if you enjoyed. :3
