Chapter 2

Mistaken Killer

"Stupid Tree! Let Me Go!"

Through darkness a cried could be heard from one very, very, pissed off teenager. Moonkek was right now going through a portal and was not having a joyous experience of it. You would think going through a portal would be fun and painless but noooooo, it just had to be terrible for our little Moonkek.

The world around Moonkek was dark and creepily alarming. It was like moving through water, slow yet fast if you were being pulled down quickly. There were glowing little air bubbles that went past her and she would have been interesting in watching the glowing bubbles but was distracted at the moment as the tree's vines pulled her more down at increasing speeds.

Moonkek was pretty sure she was moving through some kind of water but was able to breathe somehow. The tree's vines were glowing too and the vines kept tightening their grip on her the more she struggled. She was pretty sure she was going have some nasty bruises in the morning.

Moonkek was strangely not in a state of panic. Probably too pissed off and in absorbed in her anger to worry about anything else. Well she was until she noticed something.

As she struggled she was able to pull her arm up just in time to see her arm to disintegrate into blue diamond shape sparks and then quickly come back.

Her struggled stopped for a moment as she registered what just happening.

THAT can't be good. She thought before she resumed her struggle a little more frantic and panicked than before. Her body kept disintegrating and regenerating at on and off times; she was also starting to have her vision fade due to blood loss from the wound she received on her arm before she was "eaten" by the tree. She was seeing she was struggling in vain and felt on the verge of fainting, which she would have if she didn't felt something wet.

She shivered and snapped her head around to see a large glowing pink tongue. She assumed it belonged to the tree and she felt her second wind coming and her new found rising anger from the fact that the tree. Had. Licked. Her…

Disgusting!

She was able to turn somewhat around to attempt to fight off her new slimy foe but was left in an awkward half turn. She cursed herself for not thinking that through and was soon meet with the slimy appendage licking half of her face, leaving slime. She blinked in shock and then heard the tree purring. She blinked again and closed her eyes as she felt her anger start to steam.

"Don't tell me… You're a perverted tree aren't you!?" She yelled-asked the tree; the only reply she got was more purring. "Great I got eaten by a sick, pervert tree… Can this day get any better!?" She yelled sarcastically.

She once again pulled at her restraints and was able to lean back far enough to dodge the tongue. Imagine the Matrix when Milo backbends to dodge the bullets except in a half-turn position. Moonkek could only stay in that position for so long and she soon felt sweat go down her face as she avoided the pervert's tree tongue. The tip of the tongue almost touched her cheek but it flinched in pain and retreated quickly. Moonkek quickly snapped up and sighed in relief.

She heard a hiss coming from her shirt pocket and saw Skim hissing at the wet foe. She smiled.

"Good job Skim!" The little mouse looked up at her and squeaked. They both heard a growl and looked at the direction to where the tongue was.

It had a small cut and was bleeding from where Skim had bit it and was now glowing a dark red. The vines and bubbles were now glowing red too; the already dark dimension now seemed darker than before. The vines felt like they caught on fire and were now burning Moonkek. She closed her eyes in pain and gritted her teeth to stop herself from screaming. Skim then squeaked loudly and dived down deeper into her pocket.

Moonkek opened one eye to see the tongue go into a mouth made only of sharp teeth and was placed into a smile. She gulped in fear as she saw the mouth slowly open and made its way to her slowly. But she took in several breaths to calm down and stared straight at the mouth.

"If you think eating me is going to kill me, think again! I'll gladly take on this challenge." She pulled at the vines that were turning into ash and spread out her arms and legs with a face of determination.

"Bring it on."

With that said the mouth opened revealing a blinding white light and chomped down.

Somewhere in a forest close to London, sunlight poured through the crisp leaves of an oak tree where the sun's rays landed on the face of a high schooler. She was asleep on the ground close to the base of the tree and was bruised and battered. The sunlight landed on her eyes causing her to wince and wake her up. She slowly opened her eyes but moved her hand up to block the sunlight.

She groaned as the sun disturbed her and slowly sat up. She was in a daze and was slowly gathering her thoughts. She put her right hand to her head as she groaned and saw the gash on her arm.

"I guess that means that wasn't some nightmare." She mentally groaned as she said that. She shakily stood up but clumsily and quickly went towards the tree to support her weight. She felt light-headed due to blood loss but it was nothing she couldn't handle. She felt something in her shirt pocket move and looked down to see Skim poking out his head.

"Hey pal." She placed her hand down near the mouse which swiftly climbed on and went to her shoulder sniffling her worriedly. She chuckled and patted her pet mouse. "I'm fine buddy but do you have the number for the truck that hit me?" She asked.

But she soon frowned. "Or should I say tree?"

She looked at the tree she was leaning on and instantly recognized it. She felt something click and instantly kicked the tree.

"You baka tree! Why the hell did you eat me and left Shi all alone!?" She questioned the tree. It was quiet for several long painful minutes and the tree was silent. You could only here the wind howl by. Moonkek growled and kicked the tree again.

"Answer me tree!" She only got more silence. She could feel a vein pop from her anger towards the dumb tree. "Look here I want to know why would you eat me and send me to God knows… Where?"

For the first time, Moonkek actually looked at her surroundings and she noticed how she was in much more thick part of a forest and that there were no trails around. She also noticed how the air smelt cleaner and how the plants seemed more fertile than the ones back home. She looked back at the tree and decided to give it a shot once more in questioning the tree. She put her hands on her hips and glared at the tree.

"Okay, are you going tell me where I am or I'm gonna have to find out myself?" She once again only received silence. She sweat-dropped as she questioned her mental health. She then crossed her arms. "Fine won't tell me? Then I'll figure it out myself."

With that she turned on heel and attempted to leave until she heard Skim squeak. She looked at him and saw him pointing with his tiny paw at a grey bulky bag.

Moonkek recognized it. It was the bag Shi gave her to try to pull her out when the tree got her, but her strap was cut by the tree's vines. She walked over to it and decided to look through it, to see if there was anything to help her. After she opened the bag, she face-palmed. In it was Shi's whole collection of Kuroshitsuji manga.

"Couldn't you have handed me a bag with food and supplies and not manga?" She asked her absent friend. Moonkek sighed and through the bag full of manga over her shoulder. "Well there's nothing much I can do but carry these books; at least I have something to read." She said as she started making her way through the forest. Skim squeak in reply.

"Plus I bet Shi would kill me if I lost her whole collection." She shivered at the thought of what would happen if she did see Shi again without her books. She remembered one time when Shi was reading one of her books during class and the teacher took it away. She had an evil glint in her eye during that whole period and everyone was well five feet away from her. Moonkek wasn't sure what happened but after school the teacher had come up to their little group shakily and gave Shi her book back and when Shi smiled and gave her thanks he looked like he was going into shock and quickly ran to his car and sped off.

Both Moonkek and Thrint made a mental note to take well care of Shi's manga and to never lose her books.

As Moonkek walked through the forest she noticed how the leaves were freshgreen showing that it was summer. She raised an eyebrow at her next thoughts.

Maybe the tree took me to another part of the world where the air is cleaner and where its summer time now. She brought her hand to chin as she continued her thoughts. If that's the case then all I have to go is go to the police, tell them my name and they can take me home.

That thought relieved the teenager some at the thought she would be able to get home easily. As she walked she saw the trees starting to thin out making it easier to see what was ahead. Skim was back on her head looking around and with ears and eyes alert in order to see if anything was close by that could harm his owner. His ears tilted and far away he could hear sounds of civilization; he squeaked loudly getting Moonkek's attention and jumped off her shoulder to a low branch.

Moonkek heard Skim's loud squeak and turned her head to face the small creature. She walked over to Skim and bended down to face her pet.

"Did you hear something Skim?" Skim only replied with a squeak again and started to hurry off in the direction where he could hear people. Moonkek quickly followed the mouse as he wound his way through the thick forest but stayed in sight for Moonkek so she wouldn't lose track of where he was going. He stopped at some trees and climbed up one of them to another low branch. Moonkek stopped by her pet and looked around.

"What did you hear?" She asked. Skim pointed his face to where he heard the sound; Moonkek looked at the area and she could hear loud people and some cars. Her face brightened as she realized she was near civilization. She stretched her arm out to Skim who ran on and perched himself on her shoulder. She patted her little friend.

"Good job little buddy." She smiled. She pushed her way through the bushes thinking about how relieved she would be once she saw people.

"The first thing I'm going to do when we get home is buy us a nice cool, icy, frozen-" She stopped mid-sentence at the sight she saw. True she was in a city of some sort except something was way different. She wasn't in modern day Las Vegas or any modern city she visited before. She wouldn't have even mind if she was in another part of the world, it was just nothing was modern; everything she saw looked like old-style Victorian era, London.

"-yogurt."

She finished her sentence as she stepped over a large bush in order to get out of the forest. Her mouth was agape as she looked at the buildings in front of her. The buildings looked like they belonged in a history book except they were actually in color and didn't look worn down. The ground was made of cobblestone and dirt instead of concert. The lamps along the road looked like they had candles instead of light bulbs. They people were dressed in old Victorian clothing and some who passed her looked at her strangely or hurried by.

She was so focused on the buildings that she didn't see a speeding carriage moving towards her direction.

"WATCH OUT!" Moonkek turned her head to the sound of someone yelling and yelped in surprise when she quickly moved out of the way to avoid getting ran over. This caused her to trip and land on her butt. She glared at the moving carriage and shook her fist at it.

"Watch where you're going baka!" She yelled at the driver. The driver turned his head back.

"Sorry miss!" He yelled back; he almost ran into some kids and they yelled as he almost lost control. The driver shapely turned and disappeared around the corner. Moonkek sighed as she moved more to the side so she wouldn't get run over.

And I thought my Driver's Ed teacher was a bad diver. She moved more into the city staying close to the side and to try not to gather any attention. Which was epicly failing. There was more people the further she went into the city and all of them were looking at her and pointing fingers. Some kids with their mothers would sometimes walk by her and she would hear them say things like "Why's the girl dressed weird?" "Is that a rat on her shoulder?" "Why's she beat up?"

Their mothers would only say "don't get close to that poor girl" and then ushered their child away from her. She snorted at them not really caring what they were saying. Right now she was worried on where she was and when she was. She could tell it was Victorian era but wasn't quite sure in which city. Her brain was trying to register what was happening but it was in a state of denial.

She knew she was in a whole different timeline or some weird dimension but which one was hard to tell. She was hoping this was just some convention she landed in where they did historic events like the ones her Uncle brought her to when she was little. But the chances of that being true where only ooh, I don't know, negative 50 percent. She closed her eyes as she went into her thoughts and tried not to have a panic attack in the middle of the city. She finally stopped in front of a little toyshop while she was in her thoughts before she breathed in deeply and rubbed her temples.

"Look it's one of Phantom's new better rabbits!"

Huh? Moonkek opened her eyes to see three little children looking into the toyshop's window, the one she was in front of. She looked into the window and towards the direction to where the children were looking at the toys. The stuffed toy rabbits wore a top-hat, had a little earring in their ear and a little bow tied around their neck. Moonkek's brow furrowed as and she placed a finger on her chin.

Why does that name and toy seem familiar? She knew she heard it before but from where? She looked at the window again and for the first time noticed her appearance. The window reflected what she looked like and she was in pretty bad shape. Her over-shirt was in rags and her shirt underneath had cuts showing bruises the vines made and was dirty, her pants were even more ripped and the cut on her arm was crisp with dried blood. Her face was dirty and her hair had small knots.

To best describe it, she looked like she was dragged through shards of glass and mud while dodge balls and paintballs were being thrown and shot at her.

Moonkek stared, a little shocked, at her appearance for a few moments before breaking out in a grin and chuckling lightly to herself.

"Well it looks like I went through hell and back doesn't it?" She asked Skim as she smiled. Skim squeaked happily as he too was chuckling at Moonkek's appearance.

As Moonkek laughed at herself a certain butler in a black tail-coat rushed past her. The man had slick black hair and red-rose colored eyes. His skin was pale but was not sickly like. He was in a rush to complete his latest task his master had set for him which he would surely complete before his master's return to the London Townhouse. He had already completed the first part in creating a suspect list, now he just had to question every physician.

The man looked down at his clock before he smirked.

Ahhh, I am making excellent time. As soon as I am done with this I can hurry home and prepare tea and desserts for everyone. The man thought to himself.

He would continue to hurry but a strange laughter was heard which caught his attention causing him to slow down. Normally hearing laughter wouldn't cause him to stop his task but this laugh sounded different. The man with raven hair turned around to see where he had heard the laughter and saw a strange girl by one of the toy stores his master owned. The girl was truly strange in appearance, for her hair was short to her ears something most Victorian women did not have their hair like. She could easily pass as a boy with that short dark brown-blue hair.

Her clothes were in rags and were something a women, even if they were poor, would not be wearing. Not only that but she was covered in bruises and dirt; she seemed to be petting something and after the man moved slightly closer he saw that it was a white mouse. Despite her strange appearance the strangest thing was that she was laughing and smiling despite her horrible condition.

What a strange human… The man thought. The strange girl then turned away from the store and started to walk off in a different direction. The man snapped out of his thoughts as he saw the girl depart; he shook his head and quickly turned on his heel and went off to finish his job.

Besides it was just another human, no one he would care to know later in the future.

Moonkek breathed in deeply and let out a long and content sigh.

She was sitting in London's park on one of the park's benches relaxing. After she had left the toy store she found an old newspaper confirming her suspicions that she was in Britain and was in London no less! She figured out she was in some strange alternate universe because she definitely saw a few kids with weird steampunk versions of Gameboys. As she thought of that she started to mentally pout.

Ahhhh, those weird Gameboys look so cool! I totally want one. I wonder if they have a Legend of Zelda game for it. Moonkek thought as she continued to relax. Skim was back in her pocket sleeping and Moonkek was wondering if she should take a nap. She needed her strength and she would need to figure out who could help her out; she was pretty tired anyway and she doubted anybody would disturb a strange girl like her.

She laid her head back on the bench and folded her hands on her stomach. She closed her eyes and sighed contently; true any normal person would probably be panicking right now like a chicken without a head, but Moonkek realized crazy things happened all the time and that it would be pointless to overreact.

She listened to the sound of birds and the wind that carried the comforting noises from the city.

This isn't so bad. Things could have been worse. She thought to herself. She slowly felt herself start to give into sleep but then out of nowhere a hand clapped over her mouth. Her eyes instantly shot open and she started to lash out everywhere to fend off her attackers. She didn't hit anyone thought because she was lifted into the air by two men, one behind her holding her arms and covering her mouth and one in front grabbing her legs.

The man in front of her was a man in his early twenties. He wore one of those hats you see a newspaper boys wear in movies, a brown open vest on top of a button up white shirt with his sleeves rolled up to his elbows. He had on brown trousers and on his feet was… White dress shoes? Seriously, who wore dress shoes when kidnapping someone and with casual clothes?

His hair was shaggy black and his eyes were green. He was frowning and struggling to keep the tired highschooler still. Obviously he didn't have any muscles in his arms if he couldn't control one girl.

"Jeez! Bloody hell! Can't this girl keep still?" The man complained. The man behind Moonkek laughed at the man as they moved out of the park.

"What's the matter Katmath? Can't keep even one girl?" The man teased his partner. He sounded slightly older than the man in front but seemed to be stronger since Moonkek couldn't flail her arms around as much as she would have liked. But she was able to piss off the younger man. The younger man named "Katmath" growled as she struggled.

"Shut it Mathkat!" Katmath yelled.

Katmath and Mathkat. I am getting kidnapped by two guys who basically have the same name that are just reversed. She sighed mentally.

She kept struggling as Katmath and Mathkat carried her to an old-fashion car.

"We need to get her into the car before people start coming by," said Mathkat. Moonkek started to panic.

A car?! Aren't cars during this time all black? Does that mean… These guys have a black van!? She started to struggle as they got closer to the car. Noooo! Kids are supposed to avoid big. Black. Vans! Never trust a man in a big black van! That's the number one rule!

As she panicked about going into a black van (which they didn't have back then) Mathkat tried to drag her into the car while still covering her mouth but she was tough. She was able to grab the open-sides of the car door. She also bit down hard on his hand.

"Ow!" He yelled in pain but did not remove his hand. "Nice try sweetie but It's gonna take a lot more than a bite to get me to move my hand. Katmath put some effort into pushing her into the car!" He yelled at his comrade.

Katmath grumbled at him but complied with his order. It was getting hard for Moonkek to keep up a fight but she continued to try. Then a light-bulb went off in her head and she figured out how to remove the guy's hand covering her mouth.

She mentally grinned evilly as she started to act on her plan. She collected as much saliva as she could in her mouth before grossly licking-spitting into her capture's hand. The man flinched from shock and quickly retracted his hand back. He shook it in order to get the spit off while his face was twisted with disgust.

"Ewwww! That's not very lady-like you know," said Mathkat; his partner snickered at him but was soon having the same face of disgust as Moonkek gathered her remaining saliva to spit it into his face before yelling at the top of her lungs.

"HEEELLLPPP! Rape, rape, two men are trying to rape me! Eiiiii! SOMEONE, Anyone, Help!" She kept yelling as she continued to struggle and more fiercely than before. Mathkat quickly shoved her into the car, slammed the door and ran to the driver's seat. He jumped in and turned on the car before pressing his foot down hard on the gas pedal before speeding away.

While Katmath was putting metal to the petal, Mathkat was having a wonderful time trying to calm down the enraged teen.

The other abductor was a man in his late 20's. His hair was a short-shaggy brown and he wore a long sleeved-black button up shirt. He had on grey trousers and black shoes. His eyes were a dark blue and he had freckles that went over the bridge of his nose.

Moonkek was using every cheap shot she had to punch the living daylights out of the other man. She was able to get his stomach and shoulder the most but she was sadly missing his face in her punching equation. Mathkat had to duck or block in order to protect his face (didn't really care about his stomach). After few minutes of the girl's onslaught of punches and curses at him, he finally found an opening where he could halt her actions.

He quickly shot both of his hands up and grabbed her hands; he then placed both of her smaller hands into one hand and used his free hand to cover her mouth to cease her screams. But she then used her trick from before and spat in his hand.

He didn't remove his hand but he did growl and gave her a hard glare.

"Look here little missy! Stop squirming so much!" He ordered. She responded with a swift kick to his shin.

"Ouch!" He yelped and removed his hand so he could rub his now sore shin. Moonkek saw this as her chance to question her capture.

"Stupid baka! Why did you and your baka friend over there kidnapped me?! I highly doubt I've been in town long enough to make enemies all ready," she yelled at the man.

Mathkat tightened his grip on her wrists before he answered.

"Look, were just following orders." Moonkek did not like that answer and so she kicked his shin again. He grunted again and he restrained the urge to strangle the bad-tempered teen.

"Look! If I let you go will you calm down?" He asked. She stopped for a moment and looked at the man with questionable eyes.

"When you mean 'let go' do you mean you will stop the car and let me go? Or do you mean 'let go' as in you won't restrain me anymore?" She questioned. The man gave her a deadpan answer.

"The second one," he said.

"Then no, I will not calm down," she answered and then continued to struggle and kick the man.

He groaned from fustration; he was now trying to use his feet to stomp on the teen's feet in order to get her to stop kicking him. She would avoid the stomps at last second and would try to stomp back. The results were both of them trying to stomp on each other's feet while growling; it soon became a continuing cycle. Mathkat looked over his shoulder to his partner.

"Please tell me were almost at the base?" He practically begged.

"Don't worry were already here."

They passed a townhouse and turned into the driveway that led to the back. He stopped the car in front of the back door and quickly got out and went to the car's back door in order to help out Mathkat control the teen.

As soon as he opened the door the girl tried to jump out but only succeed in getting half-way because Mathkat had grabbed both her legs and dragged her back in. He swiftly maneuvered around the teen as she thrashed about in the car and got out of the car and grabbed the girl's arms and placed her tightly underneath his left arm.

Her head was facing forward towards the building but she didn't bother to admire the building since she was busy with trying to push herself out of her capture's arm or just punch him in the stomach.

She could feel her rage towards her captors but dame! This guy wasn't even flinching when she punched his stomach.

"Why does your boss want anything to do with me? Why are you following this jerk? Do you know who I am? I could twist your head off right now if I wanted to!" She yelled threats and questions hoping they would both get so annoyed with her that they lose their cool causing her to have a chance to get out of the guys grip.

Both men were getting frustrated with the girl's rambling. Katmath was gripping his hand in a fist and grinding his teeth. Mathkat was counting down to one trying to not lose his cool. Moonkek just continued to yell at them and soon added curses and taunts to try to frustrate them even more.

"I bet you two are just some lackeys that no one would care about if they died. Actually you two probably are the only ones who always get low jobs don't you? Ahhhh, poor babies never get any action; you just have to settle with kidnapping young girls? Haha! You guys must be the worse at your job then! I bet they don't eve-" she was cut off by the younger abductor's yell.

"I can't take this anymore! Can't we just knock her out?" He asked as he magically pulled out a log.

Moonkek raised an eyebrow.

And I thought only Link could pull out items magically. She thought.

The older man used his free hand to take away his friend's log.

"No Katmath, the boss wants her unharmed," he said as he throws the log over his shoulder. "She's gonna need to be in good condition for the mission the boss was talking about."

Both Moonkek and Katmath laughed.

"Dude, do you even notice the condition I'm in?" She asked the captor who held her.

"Yeah, she looks like trash!" Katmath laughed.

They both laughed then blinked, at realizing they were actually agreeing on something. They looked at each other and growled and gave heated glares.

"I look like trash?" She snarled. He growled in return.

"Yeah, you. Look. Like. Trash. And a slutty one at that," he stated.

"Is it my clothing? Because where I come from this is normal and way more comfortable than being suffocated! By a corset and wearing a less maneuverable dress," she stated.

She remembered when Shi got an old Victorian dress and corset and then forced Moonkek to wear it. She remembered she felt like she was going to pass out from lack of oxygen and that she could hardly even move in such a stiff dress (it had just gotten clean and they had used way too much starch). She had to rip the dress in order to be able to kick the intruder that had broken into Shi's house just to challenge Moonkek to a battle. She ended up using him as a punching bag for her pent-up aggression against the corset and dress.

"It's only proper for a lady to wear decent clothing." He looked at her up and down. "Obviously you are not one," he stated as he coughed into his hand.

She put her hands into fists even though she couldn't use them.

"I'll show you a lady! Just let me go and I'll kick some sight into your eyes so you can see me being ladylike as I send you to hell!" She thrashed about trying to get out of the man's hold and snorted with rage. Steam actually came out of her nose (if you guys haven't figured it out already she has a really bad temper).

"Like a thin-stick like you can actually hurt me!" he retorted back.

Both of them gave each other death glares and you could practically see the static lighting appearing between the two. After a little while of the two's small heated staring game Mathkat interrupted them.

"Stop it you two," he said as he looked at the two large doors. "Where here."

Moonkek broke the stare and looked at the door. She was so busy with her ranting and thrashing about that she didn't notice them walking in the building.

She gulped and looked at the man's hand as he opened the door. When the door was all the way opened Moonkek got a better look of the room. It was decorated lavishly with very expensive decor. The room was large enough to fight about 100 people; in the center was a coffee table with a vase on top filled with Baby's Breath close to the rim of the glass vase, in the center were Camellia's and at the very top were beautiful pink Roses. It had couches on either side of the table, a loveseat closest to the door she just entered and what appeared to be a chair that rotates around and was faced away from them on the other side.

They were all a rich velvet color; the carpet was a light red-brown and looked incredibly soft. The walls were dark brown with the bases being a dark red. On the left side was a fire-place which was lit with two large Chinese vases on either side. There were bookcases beside the fireplace and went halfway across the walls in the room. There were two other doors in the room, one was across her and the other was on the far wall behind the right couch.

That door was dark red and had two other Chinese vase by it on either side but had flowers and ferns in it.

"Boss, we brought the girl," said Mathkat.

"... Place her on the loveseat," said a feminine like voice coming from the spiny chair.

The kidnappers did as they told silently and placed the girl gently on the seat. As Moonkek was sat down she was surprised at the sudden change in their attitudes and she couldn't help but noticed that air in the room felt stuffier than before and it reeked with respected for the unknown voice. Moonkek didn't know why but she realized she was feeling nervous and she felt herself straighten up.

Wow, their tune changed towards me as soon as we went through the door.

"... Good job boys. Now leave us," the voice demanded.

Both silently did as they told and left the room. Moonkek looked at them as they left unable to read their faces. She watched as she saw them go through the door and hearing a click from it after it was closed showing it was locked.

Drat, I guess I can't escape now. She frowned and turned her head back to the chair where the voice was. Oh well, I rather be here to see who this "boss" and what he or she wants with me. I can always knock the shit out of those blockheads later. She smiled to herself. Besides I am rather curious in meeting this "boss".

Long minutes of silence passed and Moonkek stared straight at the back of the chair waiting for the mystery person to turn around and face her. It was a few more minutes before she heard a loud yawn and saw two armms stretching.

"I'm so tired! And I thought they would never get here! And you got here just in time too," the voice was definitely female and the "boss" finally spun the chair around and faced Moonkek.

Moonkek's eyes widen at the women. Her face… Looked exactly like her own.

She had the same light-almond skin and dark blue-brown hair. Her hair went down to her shoulders though but it still had that wild look to it. She wore a dark brown and white dress; to the waist to her ankles it was dark brown and she wore ankle high black boots that would lace up. Around her waist it was lacy and the middle it was lacy white and went up to the collarbone with crisscrossed brown ribbon. The dress went all the way up to her neck and the sleeves were white and slightly frilly at the ends and opened wide.

Her legs were crossed and she had her head resting on her right hand while the other laid on the chair's armrest. Her eyes though were both the same color; both green-blue. She was smiling and seemed to have mischievous glint in her eyes.

"Uhhhh." Moonkek tried to form some kind of sentence towards the women in front of her but found no words coming out.

The women lightly chuckled.

"I bet you're probably confused," she stated; her voice sounded almost like hers except it had a British accent .

Moonkek just nodded still surprised that the women looked like her. The women rose from her set and made her way to Moonkek. Moonkek stayed seated in her seat, unsure whether to stand or just remained seated. The women though made her hand rise up instructing Moonkek to stand. Moonkek automatically did as what the silent commanded said; she was to confused right now to go against the commands.

"Well than lets clear some of the confusion with introductions first." She grabbed both sides of her dress and curtsy. "My name is Emily Starcrossed."

Moonkek wasn't sure if she should bow or stick out her hand to shake her greeting. So she went with an awkward half bow.

"Moonkek," she said. Emily smiled at her and took Moonkek's hand to shake it.

"Moonkek, what a cute name. It's a pleasure to meet you," she said sweetly. Moonkek nervously smiled back.

"Thank you?" She said unsure what else to say. Emily then had an evil glint in her eye and in a flash she had placed a dark blue-brown wig on Moonkek's head and a large dark cloak on her hiding her arms and chest.

Moonkek blinked and looked down and gasped at how quickly this Emily person had done that giving her no reaction time. She looked at Emily who was still smiling and then forcefully spinned Moonkek around and pushed her towards the red door.

"Now I know you have a lot of questions but I'll have to answer them later after you get a mission from the boss."

"Boss? But I thought you were the boss," Moonkek said.

"I'm only the boss over those two boys. The real boss is in there and he is the one going give you the mission." Emily explained as she continued to push the teen to the door. "Look just roll with whatever the boss says and you'll live."

"What!? I'll live? What the hell do you mean by that and who the hell are you?!" She yelled. Emily opened the door and pushed her in.

"I already introduced myself but if you mean why I look like you then I'll have to answer that at another time. So, good luck!" Emily whispered.

"Ah, Wait!" Moonkek whispered yelled; the door the already slammed on her face. As soon as the door slammed a man spoke.

"Ah, so you finally arrived."

Moonkek turned her head around to see a man in his forties reading a newspaper while having his head rest in his hand; he was sitting behind a big oak desk that had papers all over it. Moonkek realized she was in a study; there were two leather chairs in front of the desk and a small bookshelf all the way on the right wall. The other side had a fireplace which was lit and on the mantel were a few pictures except she couldn't see them at the angel she was at. There looked to be two windows in the back wall on either side of the desk but the dark green curtains were closed blocking the sunlight to come in.

The room was dark from the lack of light but you could still see what was in the room. Moonkek stopped observing once she heard the ruffles of paper and looked at the man to see him fold his newspaper.

"Please sit, we have much to discuss," the man said. Moonkek nodded and sat in one of the leather chairs; she made sure to sit up straight to show she was paying attention even though the only reason she did this though was to lower the chance she would be killed. The man wore an expensive looking cream colored suit. He had dark brown hair that was pulled back into a pony-tail and he had side burns and a slight gote. His hair was combed back giving a clear view of his face. His eyes were dark brown and he sat with his back hunched over and his hands clasped over each other with a glistening red ring in the middle of his finger.

"I'm glad you're finally here Ms. Emily," he said.

Wait… What?

Moonkek blinked before she rubbed her ears making sure she heard right.

"I'm sorry what did you say?" she asked; clearly showing her confusion. The boss smiled at her.

"Already working on your act, eh? That's good for tonight's mission," he said smiling.

Moonkek was really confused. Act? What act did she have to do tonight and why did the guy think she was Emily? Actually scratch that it made sense that he thought she was Emily since they looked alike but why would she have her meet the boss if she was the one that had to talk to him.

"Anyway to get on to business," the boss said. Moonkek was snapped out of her thoughts as he stood up and went to stand in front of the fireplace. "Tonight you will go to the Viscount of Druitt's ball where Lady Elizabeth is told to be attending to."

Lady Elizabeth. Moonkek thought as she placed her hand to her chin.

"Why does that name sound familiar?" She asked out loud. The boss looked toward her.

"Oh, forgot did we?" He asked the teen. Moonkek looked at him and blinked.

"Uhh, yeah?" She said hoping that wouldn't get the guy angry. He didn't say anything though and just sighed.

"That's alright considering you look like you just got back from a job," he said as he looked at the cuts and bruises on her face, everything else concealed by the cloak. "But it's nothing you can't handle. Right, Maddog of Venezia?"

"Yes nothing I can't handle," she said as she smiled to try seemed relaxed excepted she was anywhere neared relaxed. Actually on the inside there was a little chibi her screaming her head off and ranting. That was because out of everything that was happening she remembered that name clearly. It was the name of the assassin the Ferro family hired in one of the… Black butler OVA episodes…

Holy crap I'm in the Black Butler world! This is when Moonkek mentally started to panic. Great out of all the craziest worlds I had to be in I had to land in the world filled with demons, grim reapers, crazy cults and whatnot where the chances of surviving if you aren't any kind of crazy is negative zero! And to make matters worse they think I'm an assassin!

She kept her face plastered into a smile as she let her mind wander with the ideas of being killed at such a young age because of crazed demons and stuff.

"Then after you finish gaining the trust of the little runt's fiancée's you will surely be able to get invited into the Phantomhive manor." the boss finished. "Do you understand your instructions?"

Moonkek nodded. She actually hadn't heard a single thing that came out his mouth but pretty much figured out was going happen because of the episode she watched. She would meet Elizabeth at a ball, wait a month later to finally be invited to the Phantomhive manor and then finally meet Ciel and Sebastian.

Oh, crap.

If she remembered right from the episode, Sebastian was pretty angry when the assassin in the show tried to kill Ciel when he was asleep. She shivered at the thought of Sebastian's cruel smirk in the show and dreaded the thought of seeing it in real life. The boss noticed her shiver as he opened the door.

"You're not catching a cold now?" He asked not really concerned. Moonkek looked at him and gave him a slight smile.

"Don't worry I'll get the job done with or without a cold," she said knowing that would be exactly what he would want to hear.

"Good then good luck on tonight's ball," he said as he closed the door after she went out.

As soon as it was closed Moonkek let out a relieved sigh.

"That wasn't so bad now was it?" Moonkek zipped around to see Emily in the seat she was in before sipping on tea. Moonkek stomped over to her and pointed a finger straight at her face.

"Alright you! Why the hell did you make me go in there if you're the one he wanted?" She demanded.

Emily calmly sipped her tea as she answered.

"Because you need a way to meet young Phantomhive and this is the best way to do so," she explained.

"Why do I need meet Ciel? These guys want an assassin and girly, if you haven't noticed I'm no killer," Mookek said as she pointed at herself.

"True you are no killer like me but you are obviously fighter." She reached down and picked up a few sugar cubes to place in her tea. "Besides they're both basically the same thing."

Moonkek crossed her arms and frowned at Emily.

"No, they aren't." Emily looked at her from the corner of her eye.

"Yes they are." She blew on her tea to cool it down.

"No. They. Aren't." Emily put down her tea and gave Moonkek a look.

"Yes they are."

"No."

"Yes."

"No."

"Yes."

"NO."

"YES."

Both glared at each other. Soon afterward Emil's cheeks puffed out and she placed a fist to her mouth to muffle her laughter.

"Hahah! I thought you reminded me of myself, Moonkek," the women said as she laughed. Moonkek looked at her but couldn't help but chuckle too. Emily stood up and swung an arm over the teen's shoulders as she laughed.

"Come, I'll explain everything to you as we get you ready for tonight's ball," she continued to giggle as she led Moonkek through a door.

Moonkek though felt herself choke on her laughs. Prepare for the ball? Oh-no, that meant dresses and the dreaded corset. Moonkek felt herself start to sweat as they made their way to her doom.
