*I knotched up the raiting to Teen for the upcoming fighting that will take place. It will not be exactly gory but what must be done must*

(Remember: The person is holding a hand to Ciels' mouth and another to his eyes. The only way he's managing to keep Ciel from easily getting out is by strongly holding him in place)

~ Ciel's POV ~

My heart pumped faster as I found it harder to breathe as the time went on. What passed as seconds seemed as hours as the struggle to pull me backward discreetly grew painfully laborious. Failing in such a pathetic manner wasn't something I was intending on doing, so desperately, I raked my mind for anything that would give me the advantage of loosening out of my captors hard grip. Only one thing was on my mind at that moment: I had to escape. That very instant I realized an open opportunity as the golden pocket watch ticked endlessly in my pocket.

Reaching for the only chance I had, I swiftly plunged my hand into my pocket searching for the golden watch. It didn't take long before my finger gently made contact with the cold metal. Gripping the watch now in my hand I retrieved it out of my pocket and blindly threw it behind me aiming for where the persons' head should be, hoping it would hit my target dazing the murderer just the slightest. And to my luck it had. With a small thud and a small surprisingly girly yelp I was aware that the watch had hit the person due to the slight eased grip of their hands, giving me the advantage of breaking through the prison that restrained me.

My eyes glanced back catching a flash of bright red freezing me in my tracks. Now clutching their forehead tightly wobbled Grell, wailing one of his arms crazily as he ranted on about me hitting him. He began to stumble back and un-fortunately the pause I had taken cost me the escape I had earned. At the last minute he tightly grabbed the back of the long black coat I was wearing and pulled me back as we stumbled on the floor underneath a table which to Grell's advantage had a long white table cloth that conceived us from wondering eyes.

I began to crawl out before Grell caught my attention with a harsh whisper.

"Listen Ciel, I came to warn you"

Slowly I peered back at the reaper over my shoulder, cautiously scanning his face to see if that were a lie.

Roughly I whispered back quietly "If you wanted to warn me then why did you hold me captive? What was that about?"

"I had no other way. If I were to approach you then you would've alerted Sebastian, either that or my beautifully handsome man would've seen me coming anyways and stop me before I had a chance to speak, so I just put up a distraction I knew you would obviously fall for. Knowing you, you would've ordered Sebastian to go check or something leaving you vulnerable enough for me to get you"

A distraction?

An image of the suspicious looking silhouette I had pointed out earlier to Sebastian flashed briefly in my mind as I recalled what happened earlier.

Oh, so that was the distraction. Irritated at myself for falling for such a pathetic diversion I face palmed my forehead as I replied quickly.

"Whatever. What was it you supposedly came to warn me about?" I snapped.

His face grew serious and a shader pale than he already was, which quite stunned me as I withdrew my hand from my head. He slowly knitted his eyebrows as he hesitated to tell me.

"You see... it's the murderer. He's grown quite the evil person. He's going to attempt to kill you tonight, around the time the party ends to throw you off guard for he's tired of having a pest on his trail is what he said. The reason I came to tell you was because if that brat even dares to lay a single finger on my man. I sear I'll-"

Interrupting the flustered reaper I asked him, or more likely insisted, that Grell would tell me more but the man simply shook his head repeating he had said to much already. It had only been four or five minutes since I was captivated and warned but time had passed quite slowly due to the stress that lied deeply within me.

Breaking the silent tension that had occurred for not nearly a second Grell spoke as he glanced at the table cloth next to him. The shadows of peoples feet reflected upon the white cloth giving an eerie light under the table as they danced across Grell's face and probably mine as well. "I know we didn't get much time to talk but you must get out there before Sebastian finds me talking to you and makes things worse than they already are. Besides," with a slight ease of his shoulders he looked straight at me "Duty calls! Farewell now and tell my precious hunk of a man that Grell-petutie says Hi!" He gave a small wink as I crawled out shuddering at the disturbing sentence unfortunately coming face to face with a rather upset butler. The problem was, he was mine.

Sebastian's brow was creased worried but he obviously wore a stern frown while he stood a couple feet back. For a moment I feared he would've heard the conversation but with the loud noise of the crowd I doubted Sebastian had over heard anything even though he was a demon over all.

Laughing awkwardly I stood up brushing the dirty palms of my hands against my pants. I needed an excuse. An excuse for crawling around on the ground. I suppose for anyone at this moment would have a hard time thinking of one but being the quick thinker I was I spotted the goldne pocket watch I threw earlier and walked towards it. Bending only a few inches infront of Sebastian I picked it up and slipped it into my pocket smiling whispering a quick "Found it"

Unfortunately he wasn't quite the one to be fooled at such a lame excuse. The butler narrowed his eyes but resumed his monotone expression as he examined my pants which picked up the dirt and little peices of junk from the floor unapprovebly.

"I checked the suspicious figure. So happens it was just a coat hanger with a hat and coat hung on top of it. I would've noticed it's true identity sooner if I hadn't tooken the proper precautions of not making a scene, my lord."

Irritated I felt a vein beginning to pop as I recalled Grell saying he used a diversion I out of all people would obviously fall for. Was I that pathetic that I let a coat hanger decieve me? Attempting to control my temper I sighed a deep breath. "Very well Sebastian"

Unconciously I took the watch out from my pocket again and flipped it open. My thumb rubbed against the little dent on the outer lid caused by Grell's head. The minute hand moved forward slowly.

By far this was going to be a long wait. But either way, if it meant I would finally stop this murderer by all means I will stay and be patient. For no one ever would dare to make a fool of me. I was going to punish this "Phantom" killer if it even cost my own comfort. I would stop this once and for all.
