It was the late Victorian age. All of the nobles in this age were either very young or very old. I was one of the young and beautiful ones. The queen was at the process of grieving for her husband's death and her guard dog was at the newest crime. I was there myself and witnessed the whole crime, and almost died myself. This young boy walked up to me and began to ask me questions with a straight face. "Did you see who did this crime?" all I could do was look at him and begin to cry "Yes, it was my father; he killed my mother and himself."

~*~*~ Time Skip 1 year~*~*~

I was walking through my mansion and I remembered it was the one year anniversary of my parent's death. So I wandered around the house; silently, calmly, and with so much sadness. I walked into my room and took a look at myself in my mirror. I was wearing my mother's old dress; she loved this one so much. ( victorian/new-victorian-clothing/ go here and scroll down till you see the green and white dress.) Just then I heard a knock on the door. I went down to the main stair case and looked towards the door and seen a man wearing a white and black tailcoat suit. He looked towards me and smiled.

"You must be the woman of the home." He walked in the door and up the stairs to me. He took a knee and then took my hand in his as he kissed the back of my hand. I looked down to him and smiled. I could tell he was not human from the moment I looked at him. We walked to my living area of my large home and we sat on one of my many couches and we talked. "So, what are you?" I asked him and he looked at me with a very strange look that I so enjoyed. "You can tell, my lady?" I looked him up and down. "You don't look like a normal human." He smiled "Well, my lady, you are correct. I am a Grim Reaper and I have come to either take your soul or serve you till you die. It is your pick, my lady. Earn your spot in the heavens with your parents or live until you die with me serving you, protecting you, and making sure you don't die of anything other than by natural causes."

I nodded my head "I wish to live." We shook on it and then we became master and butler. Human and Reaper. We became one.
