"T-The pleasure is all mine." The black haired boy said as he shook Ciel's hand. The young Earl could tell from just a glance that he did not belong here. As soon as their little chat ended as Lizzy took over talking to them once more, Ciel excused himself, motioning for Sebastian to follow.
"It appears we have a few uninvited guests my lord." His butler said and Ciel nodded.
"That Okumura boy clearly is not noble. He looks too nervous and scripted, so what is he doing here?" Ciel said, looking back out over the party guests. "And the Reapers are here." He said with distaste as he spotted the shinigami dressed in blood red standing next to the reaper Will.
"It appears that this investigation is becoming more complicated than we thought." Sebastian commented, also scanning the crowd. The party was supposed to be a set up in their current investigation. There had been another series of kidnappings and the Viscount Druitt was their main suspect again. The party was a set up to try and lure him, or the kidnapper, out as many of the victims had been taken from similar events. The arrival of these foreigners and the reapers meant that there was much more at play here.
"I want to know what they are doing here." Ciel said, turning to the demon. "Find out what they want. They may be the true kidnappers, but I suspect they are here for something else. They seem to be investigating something. Find out what it is and who they work for, this is an order." He said and Sebastian bowed down before him.
"Yes, my lord." The demon said, then stood and turned to the crowd. He paused for a moment though and Ciel was about to ask when Sebastian turned back to him. "Young master, the Viscount has left the ballroom." He informed him.
"What?!" Ciel snapped, quickly looking over the crowd for the blonde man but didn't see him anywhere.
"It also appears that Lady Elizabeth and her new friend are missing as well." Sebastian added and Ciel growled, pissed that the arrival of their uninvited guests had distracted him from his mission.
"Find them. Now." Ciel ordered, watching as his eyes flashed magenta and his pupils narrowed before he looked over the party.
"He is leaving in a carriage right now, and both of the girls are with him. They appear to be unconscious. They are headed back towards the city, likely to the Viscount's local address." He said, eyes locked on the coach that Ciel couldn't see.
"The reapers are on the move as well… come on. We have to get there before them." Ciel said, turning to Sebastian.
"Yes, my lord." He replied before lifting the young boy up. In a moment they were outside and the next they were soaring through the night air towards the city. They landed gracefully in front of the grand manor only a few minutes after the Viscount had arrived. Once he was back on the ground, Ciel turned to the house
"Let's begin."
