The young English Earl Ciel Phantomhive age thirteen decided to take a break, from the often hazardous situations that came with being the Queen Victoria's "guard dog". Fortunately for him, he was a noble, and could get such things freely anytime he wished. Unfortunately for his workers they had to make room for time. "Honestly young master, I've had to move Mrs. Potts history lesson and Mr. Myers meeting with you. Now, if I may suggest isn't the best time to go on a cruise on the Atlantic Ocean." Sebastian Michaelis, Ciel's faithful butler protested. "Sebastian for the thousandth time I do not go on vacation without a second motive." Ciel droned. "Oh." Ayame Ciel's tutor said. "So, the real motive is to check out something for the Queen?" "Right." The young Earl replied.
"Bocchan, why on earth do you need all these things!" complained Ciel's servants Mey-lin, Finnian, and Bard. "They are very important so I can have most of my belongings with me." Ciel badly reasoned. A while later the Phantomhive party, was on the ship near starboard, when Ayame noticed something in the waters. What looked like the offal of a dead animal, was indeed a cadaver. "Oh my lord. Ciel, Sebastian there's a body down there!" Ayame said while throwing her hands wildly. "Sebastian this is an order, go and get the body so we can have a closer look at it." Ciel commanded. "Yes milord." The butler obliged.
"Yuck, how long do you think it's been dead for?" said Bard. "By the looks of it maybe it's been dead two days." Sebastian said. "Anyways, let's bring it to the person in charge of this ship." Ciel said. So they brought the body to the captain, Grell Sutcliffe. "Oh hey, Sebby dear how's it going?" the red haired shinigami asked grinning, "Well enough, the young master and I happened upon a body recently. What could you tell us about it?" the butler said. "Just when I thought we were rid of him." Ciel whispered to himself. "Oh, a murder goody. No my dear, I know nobody on this ship who could of done it. This ship's records are immaculate." Grell explained. "We have to catch whoever did this. I'll have to report this to the Queen." Ciel said sighing. "I think I've got a plan." Ayame said with a hunch.
"You know how, the body was all clean, even though the body was festering?" asked Ayame. "Yeah?" everyone said. "Well my theory is that, whoever did this doesn't like unclean things." Ayame pointed out. "Now, who do we know that, loves purity?" she asked the group. Everyone shrugged. "Fine then." She decided. "Whoever it is I cannot allow them to sully my family's name." Ciel proudly said.
Ayame, had put the dross of a dead pig on the corpse to contaminate it. The carrion infested with maggots, was enough to drive any clean freak mad. An hour later at around five o'clock in the evening as the sun was starting to go down; a figure seemed to notice the corpse. Angela, the murderess gasped at the sight of her brilliant kill dirtied. "Who did this?" Angela demanded. "Come out wherever you are." Ciel, Sebastian, Ayame, Finny, Mey-lin, and Bard stumbled out from their cover. "So Angela, it was you who killed this innocent man!" Ciel accused. "Yes, I was only trying to purge this world of the evil in it. This man was, soliciting a prostitute on the telephone can you believe it?" Angela said outraged. "Was it any of your business, what he does? You didn't have to kill him you know." Ayame reasoned. "Angela Blanc you are under arrest for the murder of Sam Wilt, anything you say can and will be used against you in the court of law." The Scotland Yard said, when Ciel, and friends brought the murderess back to London. "I hope she squalors in her own filth." The young Earl said heartlessly. "Bocchan." His butler admonished. "What a day!" exclaimed Ayame slipping into her bed.
