I do not own Kuroshitsuji.

Elizabeth's eyes skim over all the people in the room as she accepts a drink from a butler. She loathes these kinds of events; however this one is the quickest way to unearth Aleister's secrets. Ah speak of the idiot and he will appear. Sliding on her smile Elizabeth turns to greet Aleister and notices with amusement how his eyes immediately slide over her body. This time she is wearing a light turquoise dress; once again sleeveless.

"You look stunning my little robin"

"Why thank you Lord Aleister, you look very handsome today." In the freedom of her mind Elizabeth snorts; he looks like an idiot dressed all in white but telling the truth never helps.

"Ah ah my dear, didn't I tell you to call me Aleister?" With barely a thought Elizabeth switches her smile for a more bashful, shy expression.

"So you did, my apologises...Aleister." As she watches Aleister smiles at her again and nods.

"Good; now would you like to dance Elizabeth?" She of course accepts and lets him twirl her around; all the while aware of Edward's eyes on them from across the room. Once the song ends she smiles up at him and then lets out a small sigh. "What's the matter my beautiful bird?" Once again Elizabeth looks up to catch his eyes and smiles again.

"Nothing Aleister, I am just a little bored of dancing." Aleistor smirks and nods.

"Of course Elizabeth; hmm I have something interesting to show you then if you are interested?" She immediately widens her eyes to look delighted and nods pleased. She follows after him; knowing that soon she will know whether the rumors about the man are true.

"Well that wasn't a complete waste of my time." She stretches as they walk down the street and smiles. "You made a list of everyone that was at that stupid auction correct?"

"Of course my lady" Edward replies and she nods pleased.

"Good; the chances of one of them being connected to what happened to my family may not be likely but I still want to investigate them. You have tonight to get all their addresses; tomorrow we start."

"Yes My Lady"

XXXXXXXXXX

"Shall we move onto the next one my lady?" Elizabeth's eyes flicker up towards Edward and she nods.

"Of course Edward, I have already gotten quite a bit of blackmail and it never hurts to have more." He merely nods at that and they walk in silence. For the purpose of tonight she is wearing a dress that has slits in the sides to make it easier for her to move. From the corner of her eye she sees Edwards head move to the side and she stops to wait. Something has caught his attention and she wishes to know what it is.

"The young master Ciel is in trouble my lady." Elizabeth lets out an annoyed groan and nods.

"Of course he is, god forbid he stay out of trouble."There is silence for a moment as Edward waits and then she growls.

"Oh fine; take me to him." There is barely a second after she says that before she is in Edward's arms and he is moving incredibly fast over the rooftops. After a moment he pauses on the edge of a rooftop and lets her down. Already Elizabeth can hear voices and she shifts to the edge of the building to see what's happening. Three people she notices immediately; Ciel, his aunt and a man with long red hair. Ciel is obviously arguing with his aunt and he looks shocked. Even while noticing this Elizabeth is taking note of the chainsaw in the redhead's hands and the knife in Angelina's. Ciel is holding a gun but Elizabeth knows he won't have the guts to shoot his aunt. Her hand falls to the sword she always carries with her as she hears the chainsaw start up and she draws it immediately.

"Get Ciel out of the way Edward" She is already moving off the edge of the roof to intercept the chainsaw with her sword as the redhead moves for Ciel.

"Oooh, what's this? Are you going to fight me girl? Well at least you will be more fun than my last victims." Elizabeth doesn't bother responding to that and then just slides to the side to slice at the idiot's side. To her surprise he manages to block her easily and she shifts her eyes up to watch his eyes and hers widen in shock and horror. Unearthly green eyes...green eyes. Her sword drops to the ground as she feels the heat and blood on her skin again. Sebastian barely manages to get to her in time to save her from the chainsaw but she doesn't even notice as she collapses to the ground; her traitorous mind replaying memories she wishes she could forget.

Pain; her whole body is in agony and she can feel the man behind her, breathing on her, playing with the blood that coats her body. Within arm's reach lie her parents and brother; if only she could move her arms but she has no strength left in her body. She feels the man on top of her chuckle and she turns her eyes back to her family and frowns. There is someone there who was not there before but she is so tired physically, emotionally and mentally that all she can see are strange green eyes staring at her. Green eyes that almost seem to glow and she shakes her head confused; maybe she is just going insane, after all the bastard on top of her hasn't said anything about it. She shuts her eyes for a moment just wanting to kill the thing touching her but when she opens her eyes she finds them drawn immediately to the green ones that are still by her family. They stare at her for a moment longer before they turn down and then a glowing white light starts pouring from her family and her eyes widen. She calls out to them and the eerie green eyes go back to hers. She finds herself mesmerized by them for a moment before her body spasms in pain and her vision fades away.

XXXXX

She can hear the sounds of battle before she can see again and as her vision clears she remembers; Ciel, his aunt and the strange man with the chainsaw who blocked her sword so easily. No one has ever done that except for Edward.

"You are magnificent demon; I would love to see your beautiful blood everywhere." Elizabeth gets to her feet with her sword at the ready. Within moments she takes in what has happened in the short time that she had been trapped in her memories. Angelina is dead with Ciel beside her and Edward is fighting the redhead.

"Kill him Edward"

"Yes My Lady" Elizabeth moves to Ciel's side keeping the red haired man in her sights as she moves.

"What happened?" Ciel glances up at her and Elizabeth takes in the wide eyes and trembling. It takes him a moment but then he swallows and stands.

"I had an idea about Jack the Ripper so I came to investigate; I discovered my aunt and her butler Grell here. They were working together and..." he shudders and bends down beside Angelina again to touch her face. "Grell killed her because she wouldn't kill me" Elizabeth glances at Ciel again and sighs quietly before she turns to see how the fight is going. Her eyebrow goes up and she shifts; sheathing her sword, though she keeps her hand on the hilt just in case. She is rather grateful that her fight with Grell hadn't lasted any longer than it did. She can tell he is nearly as strong as Edward which means she wouldn't have stood a chance; that pisses her off to no end. The end of the fight arrives though and while Edward has a terrible wound down his chest he is the one that ends up with the weapon in the end. Elizabeth allows herself a cruel smile as she watches him move to kill; her eyebrow goes up though when it is blocked by a tall man.

*"Please pardon the interruption. I am William T. Spears from the Management Division of the Grim Reaper Dispatch. I have come to claim that reaper."* A calm, bored voice states and the man jumps to join them causing Elizabeth's mouth to twitch up amused as he lands on Grell's head painfully. Her heart stalls though as he glances over at her and she meets his odd green eyes with her own. She forces the memories away and just watches the exchange between Edward and William. Finally he leaves with the idiot Grell and Elizabeth turns away.

"Let them go Edward" She moves to Ciel's side again and studies him; wondering what the hell she is going to do about this. Ciel is watching them closely and Elizabeth frowns displeased.

"I knew there was something wrong with your butler. I want an explanation Lizzie" Elizabeth's eyes narrow slightly and she shakes her head.

"Not now Ciel" She turns to Edward again and meets his eyes. "Take me back to my place and then bring the carriage here; you will bring Ciel and his aunt to his father." Edward bows and nods.

"Of course my lady" He moves to her side and Elizabeth glances back at Ciel.

"Wait here; Edward will be back quickly for you." Now it is time for Ciel's eyes to narrow as he studies her and he eventually nods.

"Very well but I expect an explanation later Elizabeth" Elizabeth sees no reason to reply to that; she is far past the point where she can be intimidated by Ciel after all. She merely gives him a nod and then lets Edward take her home.

There is something about this chapter that I do not like but I can't figure out what it is. If you notice something let me know. Now I am wondering whether I should have a romance or not in this. I would appreciate your opinions on the matter. Leave me a review with what you think; if yes please put the name of a character you want her to be with.

Thanks to all my reviewers. You make me so happy.
