AN:Hello again, my fellow readers! I hope you enjoy my second story! ^^
Disclaimer: I do not own Black Butler, only my character!
"Young Master, it is time for you to wake up." The butler said as he drew back the curtains of the room, letting in the sunlight that was
now shining outside. The young boy in the bed groaned softly before opening his eyes halfway and looking over at the butler. "What is my
schedule for the day..?"
"You have dancing lessons with Mrs. Bright at 1, and a meeting with Lady Elizabeth at 3 to plan the ball she wishes to throw later this
week. Quite an uneventful day, compared to the others we've had recently." The butler replied whilst dressing the boy for the day.
The boy sighed and stood up once the butler had finished. "Honestly, I don't understand why she feels to need to always throw a stupid
ball here. I have too much work to do to have to worry about all of them." At this, the butler merely chuckled slightly while pouring a cup
of Earl Grey tea. "She is your fiance, Young Master, you must do what you can to ensure her happiness, no matter what she may ask."
The boy glared at the older man, obviously implying that this wasn't the first time the butler had told him this. "Why you always decide to
try and school me when I already know these things, Sebastian, I will never know.", the boy said before walking out of the room with his
cup of tea and going towards his study.
Sebastian simply smiled then proceeded to follow his master out of the room before heading to the kitchen to get breakfast started.
oOo
It was just another day of collecting souls for the young Reaper girl. She's only been doing this for a few months now, but it seems to have
already become quite natural to her. She was just turning in her report for the day when another young Reaper, this one being a boy, ran up
to her, out of breath. She looked over at him and raised an eyebrow. "Knox, what on earth is wrong with you now?"
Seeming to catch his breath, Ronald Knox looked up at the young lady and grinned. "Remember that thing you told me about the other
day? About how you were looking for someone?" Without giving the girl time to answer, he went on, "Well, I found some information on
his whereabouts for you!" The girl merely stared at him blankly for a moment before replying. "You have? I'm guessing you wish to drag
me off and show me this information you found, then?" Knowing this was going to be ask, Knox grinned again and dragged the girl off by
the wrist. "H-hey! I can follow you quite easily on my own, ya know!", she yelled, but this only seemed to make his grin widen and make
him run even faster, still dragging the brunette after him.
oOo
The young boy was standing out on the front steps of his estate with his butler, patiently waiting for the arrival of his fiance, Elizabeth. He
was currently turned away from the road speaking with Sebastian so he didn't notice or hear the carriage pull up or someone getting out of
it until he was suddenly being hugged by a squealing girl. "Ciel~! Oh, I missed you so much~!", the blonde squealed while hugging the
Phantomhive, who had a slight scowl on his face. "Hello, Elizabeth..."
Hearing this, Lizzy pouted. "Ciel, I keep telling you, it's just Lizzy!" He merely sighed inwardly before offering his hand to the pouting girl.
"Shall we head inside to discuss what needs to be done for this ball you are so intent on having..?"
"Oh, of course!" Forgetting about being momentarily upset, she happily took his hand and followed him inside.
oOo
"Where are you dragging me off to, anyways, Knox?", the girl asked, already getting fairly bored with being dragged to what seemed to be
nowhere in particular.
Knox simply rolled his eyes. "Already becoming short on patience, are you newbie?" At this remark, he received a glare from the girl and
quickly went on before he got hurt, "We're going to the library, I found the cinematic record of the person you've been trying to find since
you got here." Blinking up at the boy, the girl took a moment to speak again. "So.. His cinematic record is in the library... But on the wide
of the living, or the side of the dead..?"
Grinning down at the slight worried expression on the girl's face, Knox merely replied with, "You will just have to see when we get there."
oOo
Ciel Phantomhive was sitting at his desk in his study, rubbing at his temples while Sebastian was pouring tea and cutting a cake. "Ugh, my
head is pounding... At least we were able to get all of the planning finished for the ball..." With a sigh, he glanced over some of the paper
work on his desk while sipping at his tea.
Carefully watching the young boy, Sebastian set the piece of cake in front of him. "If I may, Young Master.. You seem fairly.. Distant..
Today... Is everything alright?" Setting down his paper work, the boy looked out the window silently, refusing to look at the butler. "...
Today was the day that someone I knew and cared about disappeared without a trace, not long before the mansion had burned down..."
"I see... Forgive me for I did not realize that today was that day." Ciel dismissed this with a slight wave of his hand. "It doesn't matter now,
anyways, they've probably been dead not long after they were taken..." Standing up from his chair, he looked to Sebastian. "I wish to retire
now."
"Of course, Young Master.."
oOo
The brunette sat on one of the little couches in the library, silently waiting on the boy to find the cinematic record he was looking for. "I
still don't see why you're making me stay over here when I could easily help you look for it."
"No! That ruins the fun in making you wonder if this person is alive or dead!" The girl rolled her eyes, a deep blue color, very unusual for
a Reaper, and just stared blankly at a wall while she waited. Finally, with a small cry of victory, Knox hurried over to her and held out the
book. "Took a while, but here it is, just as promised.~" Silently taking it from him with a slight nod of thanks, the girl slowly opened the
book and looked at the page that words were still being written on.
"So it shows that he is still alive... I've finally found you again, Ciel Phantomhive..."
Finally finished this, and am pretty happy with how it turned out! I hope you enjoyed this first chapter! :) Please don't forget to rate and
review to let me know how I did, please! Have a good day everyone! ^^~
