Chapter 1: A Holy Woman is Murdered
"Master, it is time for you to wake up." Said the black clad man opening the curtains
A boy with disheveled blue-black hair in a white night shirt sat up with a groan. "For today`s breakfast we have a assortment of toast and Earl Grey tea from Jackson`s. I can also offer scones." The man said
"Scone." The boy said shielding his eyes from the light. As the boy drank his tea the butler dressed him.
"Today we shall leave to investigate the serial murders in London. I shall wait for you in the dining hall, Young Master." He bowed and exited the room
-London Street, Sight of the Murder-
"Why would someone target a mother and her child?" Aberline said. He walked over to the sobbing four to five year old little girl she had hair identical to her mother`s brown locks. Her eyes were different though, they were a crimson brown color. "What is your name sweetie?" he asked the girl getting down on one knee to look her in the eye.
"G-grace…" she stammered in tears still
"That`s a beautiful name, Grace. I`ll take you where someone can take care of you soon, okay?" Aberline said standing. He noticed a noble looking boy with a butler dressed in black. The butler`s posture straitened when he saw them, more her though.
"Ciel, why are you here?" Aberline asked
"To clean up your mess." He held up a letter with the queen`s stamp
"Go ahead." He started leading Grace away from the scene. She still had tears in her eyes and choked on sobs. As she passed you could see a single strand of raven midnight black hair
The man in black stopped Aberline before he could usher the child away. "Who is this?" he asked with an all too familiar closed eyed grin.
"This is Grace. She is the daughter of the victim." He explained
"She could be of some significance in my investigation. Until we find her father or relative she shall stay at the manor." The boy, Ciel, said "Sebastian is acting odd… Interesting…" Ciel thought
"Of course." Aberline said. He crouched down to her level again and said "This is the Earl of Phantomhive, Lord Ciel Phantomhive. He is going to be taking care of you for awhile okay, Grace?" she nodded "Here you go Sebastian." She pushed the girl towards the butler, Sebastian. He held her shoulder. She looked at him and he smiled down at her. "Why do I feel pulled to this child?" Sebastian thought "Demons only feel this way about their mates, their next meal and their offspring… I don't have a mate and she is most certainly not the young master`s soul… And I don't have a child…"
-Phantomhive Manor-
"Miss Grace, I recommended that you bathe once we are at the estate. You are coated in blood." Sebastian said to the child.
"Y-yes sir…" she stammered
They pulled up to a rather large home. "Welcome to the Phantomhive Estate Miss Grace." The butler said "Now let`s go get you cleaned up." He led her inside the manor and through many halls until they arrived at the bathroom. "Do you require any assistance bathing?" he asked her
"N-no… Thank you…" she stammered "I can`t allow him to see my hair, or the mark on my back. They will know that I am the Unholy Child with a Holy Name!"
"I will bring you some clothes soon then." He bowed and left her alone.
She entered the bathroom and slid into the large tub. "This is certainly better than the street Mommy and I lived on for all this time…" she thought. She began to run her fingers through her short hair and it slowly turned to raven black. "I`ve hidden it all this time…" she thought lifting a strand up.
Sebastian hid in the shadows of the room and watched, even if it was improper he was extremely curious of this girl, as her hair turned to raven black. He also saw on her back a birthmark in the shape of raven. "Hmm… So she`s a little Halfling of my clan… maybe she is one of their children, maybe even Brother`s…" he thought "I should take her to Historian to be marked by her demon parent…" he went outside in silence and knocked on the door. "Miss Grace, I have brought you some clothes. You will have to borrow the young master`s dress shirt for now until we can get you fitted for proper attire."
"Alright, just a moment!" she called and began to wrap her pre-mature body in a towel and began to make her hair it`s caramel color again "Come in!"
The raven haired man opened the door and saw her standing in the bathroom wrapped in a fluffy white towel, effectively hiding her birth-marked back. "Here is a shirt and a pair of socks. Unfortunately we have nothing that would fit you, so this will have to do until Miss Nina arrives tomorrow." He said bowing. "After you are dressed the young master would like to speak with you."
"Alright…" she said. "I have no intention of speaking with him!" she thought fiercely. As he left with a bow, she got dressed and bolted through the window and darted away. A little blond was there and he called out to her
"Ah! Miss Guest! Kah Sebastian!" he ran to get the black clad butler but the little girl was already gone.
It had been a year since Grace had disappeared from the manor when a call came from Mei-Rin. "MISTER SEBASTIAAANNNN!" she called
He pinched the bridge of his nose "What is it Mei-Rin?" he asked
"There are two strange men asking for you outside, yes there is! Should I alert Finny and Bard?" she asked franticly
"No, I`ll deal with it." He said "An easy fix…" he thought
"Okay!" Mei-Rin ran off and Sebastian went off to see to these pests.
"Ah! There he is! Mr. Sebastian Michaelis, Demon Number 1256 you are wanted by Master Historian." The one with brown hair said
"Why?" he asked
"Ugg! Just come on!" the other said
"Just wait for a moment…" Sebastian walked into the home again "Young Master I am going out for a moment." He bowed to the earl
"Just be home before dinner, I don't trust Baldroy`s cooking." He said
"Of course." He smiled and left for Hell.
"You called Master Historian?" Sebastian asked the large demon perched in a throne-like chair with Grace on his lap.
"Yes. Do you know this girl?" he pointed to the child. She turned to Sebastian with a scowl. Her burgundy eyes narrowed, her brows furrowed and her lips up in a silent growl.
"Her hair wasn't black before." He said
"She hid it." The large demon said "Tell him why…" he said to the girl
"I am the Unholy Child with the Holy Name… Black hair is impure." She said
"Why would you say that?" Sebastian asked
"Because the angel told me so…"
And cue fail at cliff hanger! I will try harder! I promise! R&R? –g-chi
