The morning was very boring for the Undertaker, but when the bell on the store front door rang, Undertaker came from the back room to see who it was and great them. He was very surprised to see who it was. "William!" he said coming towards him and hugging him slightly, he let go and left an arm around him. "It's good to see you! What brings you to my shop? A friendly visit maybe?" he said laughing and smiling.
"No, it's business, strictly business." He said glumly.
"Hm? Then what business do you have here?" he said blankly his smile sliding down into a thin line.
"Do you still have that girl?"
"No."
"Why not? Where is she?"
"Dunno. Probably by this hour at her shop in the ship yard."
"Will you come with me?"
"Mmmn-yes! I'd love to!"
"Okay then. Um, let's go then?" he said oddly unsure, but the Undertaker took his wrist and lead him out of the shop, and around the corner to the main road, smiling all the way.

Same old, same old. I really liked the small holiday and all but it's good to get back to work! The shop was in frenzy with people! I was moving around like crazy! I think I will stay late to help out too. We finally got all the people out, just when the boss left me to clean up. When I heard the shop doorbell ring, "Hi, how may I he-" I stopped in mid sentence being totally aware of who I was staring at. I was shocked! It had only been one day! "I-I…umm." I began stuttering. I turn red and look to the floor, embarrassed. I felt awful!
"Hi! It's good to see you!" he said with an enormous smile. "This is William as you know!" he said nodding his head toward William.
"Kimori Ankoku is it?" He gave his hand to me; I took it gladly and nodded my head up and down dumbly. "Good! I have a job to give you since you are part Shinigami, correct?" Again I nod my head. "Well then do you accept?"
"Well, I don't know what I would do about my two other jobs if I accept. I do love my work." I said smiling, putting my hand behind my head and lightly scratching and giggling in embarrassment.
"Indeed, what are you? You have to be a blacksmith to work here unless you and just a front desk worker?" he said almost spitefully.
"I'm a doctor, pro streetfighter, blacksmith, ship builder, architect and a dead body investigator." I said making my eyes in to slits, my wings lowered and my voice a low hiss. My smile had my sharp fangs showing and pointy front teeth showing. He stepped back, he seemed intimidated. The Undertaker giggled and smiled wildly. " But yes to answer your question completely," I said turning around my hands slightly in the air. I look back and smile wildly, "I do accept."

"Grell, I do believe you will be very pleased with me." William said.
"What is that William~?"
"This." He pushed me forward. "She shall be your apprentice for a week. She just needs to learn about the process. She already knows how to fight. And show her to room 405, and teach her about what we wear as well." He said sharply. The Undertaker stood behind him.
"But, she is in all black, and she is small. And…and CUTE!" he yelled running toward me to glomp me. I quickly jump out of the way, grabbing his hand and putting it behind his head. I push up the annoying glasses on my nose that William is making me wear. They were fake lenses. "H-hey! Grrr! You're strong! I do believe I shall give you a style that suits you! And in red, because you'll look darling! And that death scythe of yours needs tweaking~!" He said happily still struggling in his student's arms.
"I'm just fine in black thank you and my scythe is fine!" I growl back at him. The Undertaker was laughing his head off and William's eye was twitching. I finally let him go and he falls flat on the ground, face first.
William cleared his throat, "Now then, here is all of your assignments for today." He said handing me a manila folder filled with pictures and profiles. Grell took it out of my hand and nodded for me to come walking away.
I just turned on my heel when Undertaker cleared his throat, I turn back around, "Good luck, Clumsy!" he said sincerely. William just looked at the both of us and shrugged, walking away. I sigh and nod, rolling my eyes as well, soon to be pulled away and dragged up the stairs by a very happy Grell. The Undertaker just watched me leave, his smile disappearing into a frown. And he walked the opposite way, back to his shop.
