Chapter

Grelle and Soma were both very excited about going to see what the town held, though I could see the hurt on Soma's face quite obviously thinking of Agni, who as a normal human would be long dead by now. I began to ponder on my other demonic friends, or rather my one otherwordly friend, Undertaker. I expect that he may be alive but at this point I did not know.

Will was going to go anywhere that Grelle went, just to make sure he didn't wreak havoc in this century either. (Death ^.^) So soon enough we were walking into London, it was about a half an hour walk if we kept a steady pace which was easy for us, by the time we got back Sebastian would be done with the house. The first things started to pop into view, houses. They did not look like that of regular houses, they were a solid color, no wood panelling available for the eye, no finishes or Victorian style paint, it was all very weird, quite different from my time. The second thing we started to notice was people, mostly young kids, my age, teenagers, and younger.

They were all giving us a lot of stares. Most of them pointed at Soma with his princely attire and gold finishes. I noticed that Will was getting the least amount of eyes and I did notice few men (quite a bit older than him in appearance) wearing roughly the same thing. I was getting a few because I was dressed so much differently than anyone my age around, though I couldn't really tell who was my age.

I didn't recognize anything that the others were wearing, short-sleeved shirts with obscene writing on it, script with words on it that I didn't understand (Such as Numeric symbol: Yolo, Swag, and 'Newb' they were all very perplexing.) other than the shirts the girls were wearing obscene short pants, so short that I don't believe you can get away with calling them short pants, they were similar to something Miss Nina was wearing once but even shorter and their whole legs exposed, covering there feet were lace up shoes of absurd color with no heels, like that of a childs. I furrowed my brows tightly and kept walking, trying to look away from the girls, fearing just looking at their legs made me unfaithful. The boys were not much better than the girls, those whose pant line was not sagging below there undergarment line had skin tight pants on, not leaving much to the imagination, for there top most had ratty T-shirts on, most saying some sort of name and they had a number on the front and back, others were simple shirts like the girls were wearing.

"What happened to society while we were gone?" Soma exclaimed and I couldn't answer as I too hadn't the slightest idea.

Will was keeping silent behind me while Grelle was ating a bit like the viscount, not openly talking about how cute his 'pretty little robins' were but not keeping it a bit segret which one of the boys were hot and which really weren't. I turned to tell Grelle off for pulling so much attention to us (not that we weren't suspicious looking) I did just that and as I spun to turn around (without Grelle openly flirting with guys) I bumped into a guy. Sending us both to the ground, me on top of him

I sat up very quickly after that and widened my eyes, Soma quickly helped me to my feet and Grelle pulled the guy up. He was a few inches taller than me and dressed a lot better than any of the other kids I see running around. He had on slightly loose wool black pants that came down to just above his knee and a white button down shirt.

"Sorry." He apologized, he said it with a bit of an accent tha I remembered but I didn't know who to place it with. He had short grey hair, about the length and style of Sebastian's.

"No, my apologies, I should have watched where I was going." I said. not used to apologizing to people but remembering I didn't really have a high enough social class in this day and age to get away with my infamous cold look.

"Hey I don't recognize you from school, are you new around here?" He asked, with a bit of a creepy smile, but I still couldn't place just who he resembled.

"Yes, my family just moved here from another part of England." I said, lying through my teeth.

"Oh I see! It's looks like you're around my age so maybe when you transfer into my school we'll be in the same grade." He said before checking his watch. He cussed and then scurried away. with almost inhuman speed.

"He was strange, but so CUTE!" Grelle exclaimed as Sebastian came back. Most everyone was in a house now, just a people still making there way home.

"Young Master, the house is finished." Sebastian said bowing his head lightly. "None of your outfits survived over the decades so I brought some money with me so we could get you something new, I've studied the clothing closely and think I know what to get." Sebastian said, I nodded as something loud and obnoxious zipped past us on the street, blowing my hair a bit.

"What the hell was that?!" I exclaimed and Sebastian of course knew the answer.

"I did a bit of research on my way over, I believe those are automobiles, they are powered by liquid gasses and run with a motor, they offer quick and easy transportation from one place to another, I believe we may need to attain one to make it in and out-of-town easily. None of your money was touched and the banks still hold most of your fortune, in fact your money in the bank has almost quadrupled oddly enough. Some of the money in your private stashes has disintegrated but most of it remains, the value of currency has gone up so that will make up ten fold what we have lost." Sebastian explained quickly and efficiently.

"WAIT! How did you manage to fix the mansion in that amount of time, get the money, and not to mention study about this time?" Soma asked with puzzled brows.

"You mean he doesn't know?" Will inquired, pointing his death scythe at Sebastian.

"No. I'm afraid Prince Soma is one hundred percent human and has never been let in on the Phantomhive secret, though after this I believe we may just have to tell him." Sebastian said with that 'oh my' look on his face, a little pained and a little sad at the same time.

"What is this secret you are talking about? Ciel! How can my best friend keep such things from me?" Soma cried out but Sebastian quickly ushered us deeper into town.

"The change of scenery was crazy.

It was hard to take in the towering buildings and crazy dress of everyone around me. In the distance I could see huge building that almost seemed to touch the sky, though I knew tha was a childish thought. Sebastian finally stopped our little group and I glanced to my side to see a shop, the outside windows littered with pictures of mens clothing.

I pursed my lips as we walked inside, trying to not really pa attention to any of the things that Sebastian grabbed.

After we exited the building we were all dressed very differently. The sales clerk (A clumsy girl who blushed every time Sebastian even looked her way) had let us walk out in the clothes we had changed into. To quickly describe everything I could say we blended in, but since this is a diary and you probably want to know every detail I do not mind getting into what they are actually wearing. Will was wearing a black shirt (that was referred to as a T-shirt) with black 'jeans' (Long pants made of thick material.) Grelle was wearing the same thing as Will with his red coat still on, I of course doubted that he would be taking it kept his black slacks but traded out his white button down shirt for a black T-shirt, then Soma and I were dressed the same, faded jeans with white T-shirts.

I would not stop fiddling with the hem of the pants. I wasn't used to the feel of clothes like this on your body, I felt oddly light, probably because I usually had at least two layers on at all times.

"Sebastian what do we need to do next?" I asked him, brushing my hair out of one eyes and instead in front of the eye patch, a thing that I had to do quite often.

"Well let's see, I have already purchased one of those cars I was telling you about, as well as stalk up on food and purchase several different things for you to wear."

"Again, how can you do this all Sebastian!" Soma cried out. We all ignored Soma and Sebastian led us, I'm guessing back to the manor.

"I think Grelle and I should take our leave. It seems that you will get along just fine without us, and I'd rather not be in the presence of a demon." will said as Soma pursed his lips and watched us all closely, not quite understanding what was going on.

Sebastian looked to me and I started to speak "It's up to you, but know that once you leave we will not be going out of our way to find you, even if we find a way back. You will be left here." I said with a straight face. I knew they would leave as Will could not stand Sebastian but I didn't know they would be leaving this early.

Then it hit me.

Will and Grelle are Reapers all of there colleagues might still be alive, and it would sure as hell be better to see Grelle collecting souls rather than fawning over Sebastian.

"We will be making our way back to Reaper Head quarters as soon as possible, unlike you three we may still have our jobs intact, I'll get Grelle to do some research on what happened to us but in the meantime you must blend in, it would be quite a nuisance if people knew where we were from. As soon as we know how to get back we will head back to your manor Ciel. I do not expect Grelle and I to go back. We have nothing worth going back for." Will said, pushing up his glasses for what seemed like the millionth time.

"Buuuuuut Wiiiiiiiil!" Grelle cried out, trying to attach himself to both Sebastian and Will at the same time, Sebastian peeled Grelle off of him and rolled his eyes. He mumbled good riddance but you could only hear it if you were listening very closely. Will bowed a bit, it was an awkward bow that was directed towards me as a goodbye, and then he disappeared.

It took Grelle a little longer to disappear as he had to talk about his undying love for Sabas-chan before finally leaving.

I sighed and Soma looked at me expectantly, waiting for a story. I told him everything on the way home.

Sebastian really had fixed up the mansion, it was exactly as it was in the 1800's when we got back. Now I was lying awake in bed, Sebastian had also bought me something to sleep in though it wasn't what I was used to, I had never slept in soft pants and a shirt before but I guess this is what people did now.

I sighed, rolling over to face the windows. It was a beautiful night tonight, the moon was high in the sky, a full moon. I bit my lip and for the first time in about three years I felt a tear roll down my cheek. I wiped it away immediately and another one never fell.

It's hard to recall just what I was thinking at the time but I think it was everyone. Lizzie, Agni, Edward... Hell I even missed Mey-Rin and the rest of them. My eyes drooped, I hadn't realized how tired I was.

I fell asleep immediately after.

The morning felt so normal. Sebastian waking me up, getting me dressed and serving me tea. I almost felt like things were normal... Until Soma barged in.

Don't get me wrong, sometimes this was normal but it was only really normal when Agni Accompanied him. This time it was almost like a slap in the face, Agni wasn't here.

"I stood up to face Soma, my tea finished. "CIEL! So this wasn't a dream?!" He yelled and I shook my head.

"But if you could keep it down." I mumbled. Soma didn't hear and Sebastian continued with

"I have set out breakfast on the dining table and instead of having private tutors come to the manor would you be okay with me enrolling you into a public school with Prince Soma?" I sighed and nodded in agreement.

"That seems like it would be the best way to learn how to fit in given the circumstances, we don't even know if Will will actually find how to get us back." I didn't say Grelle's name for a reason, I only really said that bastards name when I was trying to make Sebastian mad.

"I'm glad you agree because I have already signed you up. Tomorrow will be your first day, so today your schedule is open."

Soma got an evil look in his eyes "If your free then I challenge your to... ONE HUNDRED CHESS MATCHES!"

Haha, Ciel in a public school...
