~Unexpected Visitor~
~Minnie's P.o.V~
I groaned softly as I felt the sunlight shine into my room, pulling the blanket up and over my head to shield my eyes from the harshness of the bright morning sun "Mi'lady, it is time to wake up." I heard Julia speak, I moved a bit and peeked out from under the blanket, looking towards my maid who was pouring my morning tea, I could smell the aroma from here, "Earl Grey?" I asked quietly, and she turned towards me smiling, I smiled back weakly and sat up, raising my arms into the air, whining softly as I stretched from my nights sleep, before sighing and brushing my hair back, and away from my eyes. "Today your schedule is clear Mi'lady, other than speaking to Earl Phantomhive about your current case, I have stopped your classes for the time being." I nodded and took my cup of tea from her taking a small sip before looking towards her as she smiled, I just took another sip of my drink before placing it on the small table next to my bed and leaning back as she started to unbutton my nightgown and pull it up and off my head, soon enough I had my corset and dress on, slipping my feet into the green flats, before looking towards the window brushing my hair back as I looked at the dress before smiling slightly "Alright..lets go then, I suppose I have left Lord Phantomhive waiting long enough."
"Good Morning Lady Minni, Julia." Sebastian said as he opened the door to the dining room, I smiled at him and walked sitting down at the end of the table, Julia looked at Sebastian with a narrowed gaze before walking over to me, I tilted my head slightly, why was she glaring at him? Julia adored everyone, unless they were, irksome, or if they were a reaper who took soul's of humans..and Sebastian was no reaper, I could tell that much. I would have to speak to her about this later.. "So, Lady Minnie, how did you sleep last night?" I looked up as I heard his voice, my gaze traveling over to Ciel Phantomhive "Perfectly fine, and you may just call me Minnie, Lord." He looked at me, keeping his blank expression before nodding "Okay, Minnie, you may call me Ciel." I shook my head and nodded, before hearing someone knock at the front door..now who may that be?
Before I knew it, a lady with red hair, red eyes, in a red dress..a lot of red, was in the room hugging Ciel, my eyes widened slightly as I watched them, staying silent who was she!?
~Ciel's P.o.V~
I watched as Lady Minnie sat down at the table, She tilted her head looking towards where her maid was, zoning out some, after a while I got annoyed by the silence and spoke up "So, Lady Minnie how did you sleep last night?" I looked towards her and she spoke up, gazing over towards me. "Perfectly fine, and you may just call me Minnie, Lord." She looked at me, I kept my expression blank before nodding "Okay, Minnie, you may call me Ciel." She shook her head, before nodding, and that's when I heard someone knock at the front door, and before I knew what was happening a lady in red was hugging me "M-Madame Red!, What are you doing here?" I asked her and she smiled "I couldn't resist coming to see my nephew when I heard he was in London now could I!" I let out a sigh, looking up as I heard a cough..Minnie was staring at us, her head tilted to the side "Right..Lady M- I mean Minnie, this is Madame Red, Madame Red, this is Minnie Pond.." "You, You own that fashion line!" Madame red ran over to Minnie taking her hands as Minnie smiled nervously "Yes, My mother passed it down to me, at a young age in case something was to happen to her.." "I heard, I am sorry for your loss, but You have a nice company now, so you must be doing well for a woman in this time and age!" Minnie nodded once more, I sighed "Madame Red, we don't have time for this we should be discussing the new case.."
~Minnie's P.o.V~
I sighed as she finally let go of me and sat down, I looked over at Ciel once more before I could speak Sebastian had sat food down on the table bowing "Why don't My Lord, and Mistress Minnie eat before discussing the case?" I once again said nothing but started to silently eat, every once in a while glancing over to Ciel..
~TimeSkip, Provided by Sebastian's Singing~
I groaned glared towards the man in front of me, my arms crossed "I will say this once more, I want to see the body!" He just laughed, I sighed in slight annoyance before hearing my name "Minnie Pond..the Queen's Mouse, what are you doing here?", I smirked looking at him "Arthur, Arthur, Arthur, My guess is you know who sent me.." I pulled a letter out of my cloak and waved it in front of him, The man beside him gasped as I pulled his clipboard away and read it, Madame Red, and Ciel behind me..and some man named Lau and the female with him, I don't remember her name though..after a while Arthur got annoyed with me and snatched the clipboard away, I tsked and walked off with my little group "So what now?" Madame Red asked, and Ciel sighed "We go to him.." "You don't mean!.." Lau said…
"Where are we?" Lau looked at the shop in front of us as I face palmed, Him and Madame Red started to fight once more so I just walked inside "Undertaker! Where are you?" "My My, the Little Mouse has returned has she~?" I shivered as I felt two arms wrap around me "Are you going to let me build you a coffin today?" I sighed looking up at him with a small smile "Not today Undertaker, I'm here on official business." He chuckled and let go of me, "You know the price dear.." I let out another sigh and turned around, before I could speak Sebastian was telling us to get out, and not peak in..I stared at the shop in front of me before jumping as I heard a loud laughter coming from inside, Sebastian opened the door and smiled letting us come back in…
~Julia's P.o.V~
I stood behind my Mistress as the Undertaker explained about the victims, how their uterus had been cut out, precisely, but how the rest of the boy was torn up, almost beyond recognition, Minnie shuddered a bit at the thought "and all on public streets, isn't that..they must be quick then? That or stupid, but smart enough not to get caught as well.." She leaned back a bit sighing softly "Julia." "Yes Mistress?" "Do you think you could make a list of suspects for me?" I bowed, putting my hand over my heart "Of course Mistress, I shall meet you back at the Home." I turned and walked out of the shop before running off.., Before I could even get the first name someone, or should I say something pulled me into an alleyway, I sighed as I looked up into those red eyes, "Sebastian.." I heard him chuckle as he backed up looking at me, I crossed my arms, what was with him? So problematic… "What do you want, Michaelis?" He just smiled, that oh so innocent smile of his making me scoff "Nothing of your concern Julia, I just had a question..what is someone like you, doing here in London?" I smirked softly and looked up at him, getting close where our faces were only inches apart "Wouldn't you like to know?" I ducked under his arms and ran off..Before smiling faintly..he was interesting, and not knowing who I was, I think it was starting to drive him a bit crazy..
When the Earl and my Mistress returned I was already in the house with Sebastian, holding a couple of scrolls in my arms "Welcome home, Mi'lady." She smiled walking past me "Do you think we could have some tea?" She looked at Ciel who nodded walking after her, Madame Red gawking at how fast me and Sebastian had been, after explaining everything we decided the best plan was to go to the Viscounts party..
~Minnie's P.o.V~
"So his party is tonight? That doesn't give us long now does, we better go and get ready then.." I stood up and walked out of the room..I do hope we have the right man..
