"Explain yourself," Ciel growled as he sat in the coach opposite Sebastian.

"You don't want to know," Sebastian answered.

"I order you to tell me," Ciel demanded.

"Well, if you insist," Sebastian grinned, "That pie was filled with human flesh."

Ciel's face turned and he looked like he was going to be sick.

He composed himself before saying to Sebastian, "You're not serious."

"I am serious. Why would I lie to you, Master Ciel?" Sebastian smirked, "Human beings can be such wonderfully grotesque and horrific beings. Serving up one of your own in a pie, can't say I'm shocked, though."

Ciel shivered with horror and looked back at Sebastian, who still seemed to be sitting looking rather smug.

"Couldn't you have said anything sooner? I nearly took a bite from it," Ciel said, disgusted.

"I didn't really notice before," Sebastian smiled.

"So there is something going on," Ciel gathered himself together once again, "I suppose we have to investigate now."

"Should we not tell Scotland Yard?" Sebastian asked him.

"No, they'd only send Aberlain, or some other idiot. We investigate ourselves, only if an arrest is required do we call them," Ciel answered.

"Whatever you say, Master Ciel," Sebastian said, "So what's the plan of action?"

"I think that Todd person is probably responsible, he seems like a dark character to me. I have an eye for these kind things," Ciel sighed.

With that Sebastian seemed to giggle, if even for the slightest moment.

"Did I say something amusing?" Ciel asked, his face deathly serious.

"It's just.." Sebastian started, "Nevermind, it's not the time for laughing."

"No, it's not," Ciel said, almost in a scolding manner.

"So how do you plan to deal with Todd?" Sebastian asked.

"Not me. You," Ciel stated, "This guy could be some kind of murderer. Do you really want me to endanger my life? You know what'll happen if I die prematurely," he stated this last part with what appeared to be a slight grin.

"Of course. I'll see about this Todd character then," Sebastian grinned, "I'll be off then."

Sebastian hopped back out of the carriage and made his way up the rickety metal steps to Sweeney Todd's Barber Shop.

"Just stay in the coach," Sebastian ordered, before he opened the door to Todd's shop.

"I'm supposed to be the one giving orders," Ciel mumbled to himself.


There's not really much in this chapter, so it's very short, but meh.

I don't know if it's made obvious why Seb laughs, but the clue is in Ciels "have an eye" line. It's just a stupid joke based on the fact Ciel has an eyepatch.

Anyway since it is a very short chapter I don't have much else to say.

Bye~!
