Fangurl Phantomhive was sitting in the living room alone and watching TV. It was a Saturday night and Ciel and Sebastian were out visiting Lizzie in London for a few days, so it was really just her in the Phantomhive Manor for the weekend. She thought about asking Ronald to come over, since she'd been hanging out with him a lot lately. Fangurl liked Ronald a lot, and he treated her like a queen, but there was something about him that made Fangurl not see him as a potential boyfriend. Maybe it was just the fact that they were so close, she didn't want to make their friendship down spiral.
Suddenly, there was a loud bang on the front door. Fangurl got on her feet and slowly answered it. There she found Ronald, Eric, William, Grell, and a lump wrapped in a bed sheet that Eric was holding. "What's up guys? What happened?" she asked.
"Alan's been hurt Fangurl," Grell said lowly as she looked at the lump in Eric's arms.
"What?" Fangurl asked again. Alan was one of her closest Shinigami friends, so this got her concerned a lot more than she was a few seconds ago.
"He never came back to the apartment last night, or turned up to work today, so after the shift we went out looking for him," Eric explained. The girl could tell he was trying his hardest to hold back tears.
"Judging by the marks we found all over him, he was attacked by a demon, or even worse, a group of demons," William added.
"How does he look?" Fangurl questioned, dreading to discover the answer.
"Why don't we let you see," William suggested.
"Alright, Eric bring him inside and lay him on the couch," Fangurl instructed as she let her Shinigami friends inside, despite Ciel's constant warnings about letting Shinigamis inside the Phantomhive Manor.
Eric lay the wrapped up Alan down on the couch as gently as he could and then stepped back. Fangurl then unwrapped the bed sheet from around Alan's torso and was horrified at what she found.
Alan's body was covered in both fresh and dry blood. There were dark bruises on his face, arms, and torso. She saw vicious claw marks all over his body, and what looked like dust all over him. The worst part was his lack of clothing. Alan was wearing nothing at all, and that concerned Fangurl. "What happened to his clothes?" she eventually asked when she found her voice again.
"We don't know; we found him just like this. My guess is that the demons that did this to him took his belongings as well," Ronald said.
"Luckily I have his spare glasses," Eric added as he removed the pair from inside his work jacket and set them on the coffee table.
"He looks so damaged," Fangurl whispered as she lightly ran the back of her hand over his forehead. "Have you guys taken him to a hospital yet?"
"No, we wanted him to wake up and stay in an environment where he is comfortable and recognizes, and this is the first place we thought of," Eric explained.
"Could you maybe take care of him while we go out and find the bastards responsible for this?" Grell asked. Fangurl looked up and saw the four were serious.
"Guys, as much as I want to help him, I don't have the medical training necessary to take care of Alan," she reminded.
"Just at least watch him until he wakes up, and try to stop the bleeding if you could. Please Fangurl, we know you're capable of pulling surprising things," William pleaded.
Fangurl sighed, looked at Alan, and then back at the Shinigamis before saying "Alright, but I want three hour updates on you guys."
"Okay, we'll be back in the morning to check on him," Eric informed as the others summoned their death scythes. The Shinigamis walked out of the Phantomhive Manor and disappeared to the Shinigami Realm.
