I hope this made up for the long wait, sorry I had writer's block until today I hope you like the chapter.
I walked back to my apartment that my partner and I were assigned to. I walked through the door and walked to my room. I fell onto the bed and fell asleep pretty fast. Grell, Ronald, Eric, and Alan stayed at the PUB while I came back and fell asleep. I woke up from a nightmare in the morning and I was breathing heavily. I got up from my bed and began to get dressed. I got a black lace corset and tied the strings after I zipped the zipper. I then put on some black jeans and put black ankle boots on. I looked at my face in the vanity and brushed my hair before pulling it up into a bun and putting chopsticks in it. I then walked out of my room and walked towards Dispatch. I took a deep breath as I opened the doors to Dispatch and I walked inside. I continued to walk down the hallways towards where I was going to get my death scythe and I gave a small smile.
"I finally found the place where I belong," I thought to myself as I continued to walk.
I walked into the room where they kept all of the death scythes and I walked up to the counter to see a lady that was probably three inches shorter than me. She handed my death scythes and I smiled at the Sai that I had said to be my death scythes. I picked them up and I put them on my belt before I walked away. I took a deep breath as I walked towards my office and when I entered it I saw a black book on my desk. I walked up to it and smirked before I ran out of the office. I kept running until I ran into someone and I landed on my butt. I groaned at the same time as someone else and when I looked at who I ran into I saw Grell.
"Sorry, Grell," I apologized.
Grell looked at me and he fixed his glasses before he stood up and brushed his long red coat off. I stood up also and I grabbed my black book that held my to-die list.
"So are you ready," he asked.
I looked at him slightly confused and he crossed his arms.
"We're partners, remember," he asked.
I tried to remember and then I began to wonder if he told me when I was drunk.
"Sorry, Grell I don't remember," I smiled nervously and scratched the back of my head.
"You remind me of Ronald," he laughed and started walking.
I walked next to him and I put my black book inside of my coat. We walked outside and he made a portal. When we stepped through the portal we were on one of the rooftops in London and my eyes widened in fascination.
"Wow," I muttered before we started to leap across rooftops.
I jumped down into an alley and landed on my feet. I looked around and Grell landed right next to me before we walked out of the alley and I was in the square in London. I walked towards the middle and everyone passed by me as I looked at everything. I then could smell something and I looked across the square to see someone I thought I would never see.
"Grell, we need to get out of here," I said to him only to notice that he was already across the square.
I sighed and started running towards Grell as I weaved through people I heard people complain and I muttered small apologies knowing that they probably didn't hear me. When I got next to Grell we were in an alley and I saw a tall man with a boy that was to his shoulders. I growled slightly and narrowed my eyes at the smaller man.
"What are you doing here," I growled.
"I would like to ask the same," the boy said emotionlessly.
"Amy do you know him," Grell asked me and looked slightly shocked.
"He's the one that tried to kill me," I narrowed my eyes.
"I should've asked Sebastian to use a death scythe rather than a knife," the boy said emotionlessly.
I grabbed my scythes off of my belt and I held them in my hands as I glared the boy down.
"So you're a Shinigami," he said like he was amused.
"I've been one my whole life," I said.
I saw his eyes flash a bright pink and they looked cat like.
"Sebas-chan, can you get this brat to not fight my partner," Grell asked in a pleading tone.
"Ciel, I would suggest that we not fight them," Sebastian said with a slight bow.
Ciel's eyes turned back to the normal dark blue and I glared at him.
"Now I know why my father hates demons," I said.
"Who would your father be," Ciel asked like I was entertaining him.
"William T. Spears," I growled.
Sebastian's and Ciel's eyes widened a little bit as I smirked.
"I was never the girl you thought I was, I was always strong and I was never weak. But it was just lucky that I was born a Shinigami so I could see your surprised face again," I said maniacally.
Ciel's eyes flashed pink again and he looked at Sebastian.
"Sebastian, let's go," Ciel said before he glared at me.
I continued to watch him and I looked like a maniac. I cocked my head and I smirked. Sebastian nodded and then they jumped into the air before they disappeared. I looked at Grell and I had my calm demeanor again.
"Shall we get this reaping done," I asked.
Grell smiled and showed his shark like teeth before we both ran out of the alleyway towards where we needed to reap the souls we had on our to-die list.
Thirty Minutes Later
I looked at the flaming building before Grell and I entered to hear screams of agony. I ran towards where my reaping was supposed to be and he ran towards his. I began to stab all of the dying people in the building and then I saw a small child. The child looked at me frightened and I looked at it with sympathy. I had always loved children and when I saw this child I felt a twinge in my heart. I kneeled down next to the child and I looked at the child in the eyes.
"What is your name," I asked.
"T-Thomas," he answered clearly scared.
I looked at my to-die list and I saw his name. I looked at him with sadness in my eyes and he looked at me frightened.
"Are you going to hurt me," he asked before he coughed violently.
I continued to watch him as a tear rolled down my face.
"I'm sorry," I whispered.
"Will I get to see mommy and daddy," he asked as he sniffled.
I looked at him and nodded.
"Yes, you'll get to see them," I smiled a sad smile.
He coughed violently again and he held onto me. My eyes widened as my death scythes dropped out of my hands and another tear ran down my face.
"Will it hurt," he coughed.
I looked at him and tried to keep the tears from coming out.
"No, it will just be like falling asleep," I muttered.
The little boy nodded and then I felt his breathing stop. I tried to keep the tears from falling and I grabbed one of my Sai before I stabbed it through his back and his cinematic records flew out. I closed my eyes and took deep breaths as I tried to keep the tears from falling. When his cinematic records stopped I laid him down on his back and I closed his eyes before I put one hand on top of the other on his torso. I then grabbed my other Sai and put my black book inside of my soot covered coat and put my Sai on my belt. I turned around and walked towards the exit. I saw Grell outside and the building collapsed right when I exited it. Grell looked at me with an arched eyebrow and I walked towards him.
"Are you okay," he asked.
I shook my head and I buried my face in his chest as I gripped his shirt.
"I can't believe I had to do that," I cried.
"What do you mean," he asked.
"I had to reap a little boy," I continued to cry.
I felt Grell tense up and then he hugged me back.
"It's okay," he cooed to try to calm me down but I continued to cry.
One Hour Later
I walked back to Dispatch with Grell and I dropped my to-die list off at my father's office before I walked into my office to begin doing all of the paperwork I had to do. I kept scribbling stuff down for my paperwork and I continued to think of the child that I had to reap.
Grell's POV
I stayed in William's office and I watched him do paperwork.
"Why are you still in my office, Sutcliff," William asked coldly.
"Why did you have a child on your daughter's to-die list," I asked.
He looked at me and arched an eyebrow.
"Because I know that you can't handle reaping children, did something happen," he asked.
"She cried, she has a soft spot for children. Just like me," I explained.
William sighed and looked at me with sadness in his eyes. I was shocked since I had never seen him without his stoic expression and he rubbed the bridge of his nose.
"Can you talk to her," he asked.
My eyes widened and I looked at him in complete shock.
"What do you mean," I asked.
"Can you explain to her why I gave her that reaping," he asked.
"I still don't know why you did it," I said.
"I barely know her, I didn't even know I had a daughter until yesterday," he explained as he looked at me.
I nodded and I stood up.
"Okay, Will," I smiled but I didn't show my teeth so he knew I was serious.
He nodded and then started getting back to work. I walked out of his office and I walked towards Amy's office. I knocked on it lightly with my gloved hand and I entered the room to see that Amy wasn't there. I saw a note on her desk and I picked it up. I read it and I re-read it.
Dear Father (If you're reading this),
I decided to take my paperwork back to my apartment and work on it there so I could have time to myself. I will still come in and turn it in on time but I just need to be alone right now.
Sincerely,
Amy
I walked out of her office and left the note on her desk as I continued to walk towards our house that we shared. I walked into the house and it was still completely red. I walked towards the living room and I saw her sleeping on the couch with all of her paperwork done. She looked so cute in her sleep and I smiled another small smile before I walked towards her. I put my arms under her knees and her back as I lifted her and I walked up the stairs to take her to her room. I pushed her door open with my foot and I saw that her room was entirely red and black. I walked over to her black bed and I laid her down on top of the blankets before I grabbed a folded red blanket from the chair. I unfolded the blanket and covered her before I walked towards the door. When I was at the door I saw a photo frame on her desk and I walked towards it. I saw that there were several pictures beside the photo frame that were stacked on top of each other and I looked at the photos. The first photo was of Amy and it was a school picture. The next picture was of her at a college and I saw that it was at Oxford University. My eyes slightly widened at the next picture because it was a picture of Amy and Ciel Phantomhive. All of the pictures of her were when she was in disguise and I looked at her sleeping. She looked almost like she was sad and then I looked at the last picture. The picture was of William, Ronald, Cassandra, and I, my eyes slightly widened and I looked at Amy again. I took a deep breath and set the pictures back down on her desk before I walked out of her room. I closed the door lightly and I walked back to the living room where I saw her completed paperwork. I got a piece of paper off of the desk and wrote in red pen that I took her paperwork to the office so she could sleep and then I grabbed the paperwork before I walked out of the house. I walked back towards Dispatch and I dropped off her paperwork at William's office. When I left he looked at me but I didn't pay any attention and I walked back to my office. I walked towards my desk and I opened the top drawer to see the exact same picture that Amy had. I took it out and I set it up on my desk in its dark brown frame.
"She really is your Daughter, Cassandra and she acts just like all of us," I said to myself before I leaned back in my chair and closed my eyes to fall into a deep sleep.
