"Please don't do this. I didn't mean any harm." The servant pleading on his knees in front of the poised girl made her scoff at how pathetic he was acting.
"You should have thought about that when you stole from the Queen." She then proceeds to kick the man's arm, resulting in him collapsing on his stomach.
"I get rid of the vermin who dare defy their Queen. And you are one of them." The girl clad in black places her large red heel on the man's head, and pushes down.
"I'm begging you. How will my family survive if you kill me here? Have mercy, Red Rose."
"Are you trying to make me pity you? After you stole from the Queen, not once, but multiple times, and then lied about it? People like you do not deserve pity." She raises her heel, and stomps on his head roughly, consequentially spilling his brain out of his skull, leaving a grotesque mess.
Oh how Katherine Rose hated people like this. Their own guilty desires get in the way of what really matters. If you steal, you will be punished. Of course, she thought it was simple enough, but apparently lower class had no idea of pride. No, that was an attribute saved for people who can afford it, like herself, for example.
Katherine Rose. People know the blonde beauty for her poised, cheerful, childish, and mostly clumsy actions. Although that was not who she really was. When she was still named Margret Smith, the young girl's father was an avid black market seller, and, at age 10, she was sold for 100,000 £ to a wealthy scientist. For a whole year she was tortured and cut open all for the sake of 'a scientific miracle.' That is, until she stumbled upon a rumor about recruiting a demon from hell. Katherine spent another year trying to summon the demon, and when she did, she had ordered him to kill everyone that had any ties with the science lab that made her suffer for all those years. She had then studied Systema, a type of martial arts, with her new demon which she had decided to name, Jasper. She wanted her father to die at her own hands, he needed to suffer for what he did to her, nobody should be sold to the repulsive humans she was sold to, no, human was not what they were.
Vermin.
Filthy murderers. Yes, those words suited them best.
She was recruited from the Queen one year ago, right after she had started her own business that dealt with jewelry and clothing. The Queen had recruited her as her undercover spy, to deal with unfaithful servants. And, now here she is, at age 16, a wealthy noble girl who deals with disgusting, lying humans such as the man she had just killed.
"Jasper, my shoe." The blonde lifts her foot for the demon to wipe off.
"My, my. You've made quite a mess this time, my Lady."
"Well, it's not like you can't clean it up, and dispose of his existence. It's not like he was worth anything, so this should pose as an easy task." The brown haired butler nods at this, and wipes the remainder of gore off her shoe.
"Of course, Mistress."
"Oh, and report to the Queen that we have completed our task, and he was executed. I expect you at the manor when I arrive." She turns on her heel, and walks down the alley, and inside the carriage. She signals the driver to start on his way to the manor.
It has always been this way. Ever since the faustian mark was placed on her thigh, she had demanded Jasper to act as her butler, and aid her when she needs it. And, when she completed her mission to get revenge on her father, who had disappeared a couple years ago, she would disappear from existence as well.
The carriage pulls into the long driveway that leads to her manor, and stops at the double doors. Katherine steps out, and heads toward the door, which opens instantly, revealing Jasper smiling, welcoming her home. The girl hands him her cloak as she goes up the stairs, and toward her room. It had been a long day for the girl, what with following that man around all day. Her feet hurt, and she couldn't wait to snuggle up in her bed with her Bitter Rabbit, and sleep soundly, even though it was only 8 pm. She lifts her feet up, and Jasper unlaces and slides them off her feet efficiently.
"You can leave now." The butler bows before leaving the girl alone, closing the door behind him.
The girl takes off her black and white dress, then changes into a simple white night dress that stops at her knees. The blonde unties the ribbons in her hair, resulting in the pigtailed hair to fall on her shoulders softly. She yawns softly, as her tired upper body collapses on the bed in exhaustion. A few minutes later, a knocks sounds on the door.
"I'm sorry for the intrusion Lady Katherine, but I just received word from the Queen of your next assignment." The girls head bolts up instantly.
"And?" Jasper holds the letter up in front of him.
"Queen Victoria requested that you keep a close eye on her guard dog, Ciel Phantomhive." Her blue eyes grow shocked as she snatches the paper from his hands.
The letter reported that he has been doing some activities that make the Queen doubtful of his loyalty, and needs to be watched closely while he completes his next mission from the Queen. Out of all people, he was that last person she would think that would be disobedient. Katherine had met Ciel Phantomhive on multiple occasions. Although they were not close, they were acquainted with each other, and his loyalty to the Queen was absolute.
"Seems the Guard dog wasn't trained properly, Jasper." She smirks at the letter, before setting it on the bedside table.
"You can leave now." Jasper bows before leaving his master alone in her room.
It was the least to say she was very excited to see how all the events of tomorrow would play out.

And like I said before, this character's looks are based on Marie Rose from Dead or Alive 5, and some of her quotes will appear as well. And, each chapter from now on will be 3,000 words or more.
