******Thanks to everyone who is sticking with this story! I'm so happy you like it so far! I really don't know what I'm going to write when I sit down and stare at my screen. Things are only gonna get visceral from here. As always I don't own Kuroshitsuji/Black Butler. ******

Some nights after the lovers meeting atop a certain Undertakers shop, the young man Alex Turnbell walked the lonely streets of London looking for something. He knew if he walked long enough, looked hard enough he was sure to find it. The answers he has sought since childhood. The feeling of not belonging to this world. The feeling that he had been here before. Of course he knew it was because of his dreams. More like memories really. Demons he has wrestled his whole life.

Now he walked looking everywhere for a shock of red. For the familiar face from his dreams. If he could just find that man he would finally be at peace. Now at this late hour, after wandering the streets for days he was loosing hope. He felt there was a purpose to his being here, and the red head man would answer it.

Elsewhere in London two demons watched the city, Ciel Phantomhive was looking for blood, his servant Sebastian, looking for freedom.

"Sebastian, It's time to set my plans in motion. I want you to secure information on all the major players. Its time to take my place as the head of London's underworld one more. Find them and kill them. Make sure their followers know that I am in charge now." The blue haired demon instructed with a glint of malice in his cold eyes. The butler placed an arm over his chest and bowed slightly.

"Yes, my lord," he said with out the hint of affection.

"Oh and should you run into any Reapers along the way, dispose of them as well. Might as well rid the city of all its vermin," Ciel added coldly smiling into the night sky. "That's an order," he said turning and facing the older demon. The seal imbedded in his eye glowed faintly as the binding order was issued. The seal on Sebastian's hand glowed in response. Inwardly he cringed and prayed his beloved Grell was not out and about tonight.

Bowing again, Sebastian said "Yes, my lord. And should you have need of me this night my Lord, where can you be found?" he queried, attempting nonchalance but Ciel pricked an eyebrow.

"Whats this, concern for me Sebastian? Have you come to care for me after all these years?" the little Lord needled his older companion.

"Not at all, My Lord. I was simply ascertaining where I would need to clean up the mess you leave. You can be such a rambunctious little boy." The raven haired man said bowing slightly to hide his smirk. Nothing irked the boy demon worse than the mention of his height or age. Ciel frowned and punched Sebastian in the stomach with enough force to knock him off the building the were perched upon.

"Humph, I go where I go Sebastian," the vicious little scoundrel called down to the battered demon before turning and heading south.

Sebastian groaned as he picked himself out of the rubbish he had landed in, not in pain but in irritation. He smirked again as he went to accomplish the task set before him. He prayed the Reapers had enough sense to stay out of his sight until his task was completed.

The plan to recruit the reincarnated Alois Trancy had now been relayed to William Spears who sent it to Senior Management. In turn Grell's relationship with the demon Sebastian had also been revealed. Management decided to reserve judgment on that matter until Phantomhive had been dispatched. Permission was granted to release the memories of Alois Trancy to his new self, named Alex Turnbell. It seemed that Senior Management was as anxious about ridding London of Ciel Phantomhive as those in the Dispatch office. They saw the murder of Ronald Knox as a declaration of war by the demon boy and intended to return the favor in kind. It was ordered to recruit the boy as a sort of deputy reaper, granting him the temporary powers of a death god so the task could be accomplished. The trick was now to find Alois/Alex and set the plan in motion.

In his office, William sighed heavily as he told the plan to the few members of Dispatch in on it. Gathered in the small tidy room were Grell, Alan, Eric and Undertaker. The operation was to be small. Grell and Undertaker would seek out Alois/Alex while Eric and Alan would keep surveillance on the demon lord. No one was to go near the demon until Alois was in position to eradicate him. As for Sebastian Michaelis, he was not a target but would be considered collateral damage should he interfere. Grell had emphatically opposed that decision. William honestly didn't care a wit about either demon and would have liked to wipe them both from the face of the earth. However to preserve his colleges sanity he stated that Michaelis was to be restrained and deadly force used as a last resort. This quieted the red heads contention, though he fumed resentfully. William dismissed the team to their appointed tasks, wishing them good luck and bidding them to stay safe and out of sight of the demons. William set out after they had left, determined that he himself would confront Sebastian. As William partially blamed Grell for the loss of Ronald, he would in turn take away the scarlet irritations object of affection.

As they left, Alan and Eric grumbled audibly about babysitting duty. They wanted blood for their fallen friend and colleague. Undertaker turned to them and grinned maniacally at them. "Rest assured, chaps, very soon the streets will run with the blood of demons. Ronald Knox will be avenged most brutally," he cackled out then giggled viciously. The sight nearly ran the pairs blood cold but satisfied their grumbling. Each pair of men left the dispatch then to accomplish their assignments.

Eric and Alan came upon their query quickly. The little demon spawn had been found behind a seedy den of drink and debauchery. He was currently feasting on a hapless street walker who had been ballsy enough to offer her wares to the childlike monster. The sight was enough to cause both men's stomachs to vacate its contents. Blood and sinew covered the alleyway. The hookers pimp was now engaged with Ciel, attempting to kill him for destroying his property. Ciel was laughing and toying with the man. Alan and Eric watched from above as the scene played out. The little Earl grew bored of the scummy man quickly and devoured him messily. He then moved away from the alley and into the crowded streets. The two reapers followed now at a very cautions distance. Both men equally frightened of this terror with a child's face.

Elsewhere, Undertaker and Grell searched for Alois/Alex. They had tried his apartment first but found it empty. Now they searched the surrounding area. After an hours searching they gave up and perched themselves atop the young mans building. They would catch him upon his return. After a few hours they were rewarded for their patience when the man finally returned home. They allowed him time to enter the apartment before slipping in via a portal. Alex had just entered the apartment and removed his coat when into his living room, popped the very creature he had been searching for. He exclaimed in simultaneous joy and fright. "IT'S YOU!" He shouted as Undertaker pooped in right next to the crimson reaper.

"You know us boy," Undertaker snickered out, suddenly amused by the boys expression.

"Yes, no, I mean I recognize you," Alex exclaimed. "I've dreamed of you all my life!"

"Really? Hows that, Undy dear," queried Grell, sizing up the young man before him. "You look quite a bit like him. But your older than the last time."

"Hmm I suppose its not uncommon for the reincarnated to have some memories bleed into the new life," mused Undertaker. He looked from Grell to the young blonde. "How about some tea, deary," pasting a big grin on his face. "We have a great tale to tell you and an even greater boon to ask. Might as well get comfortable."
