I do not own Kuroshitsuji.

Elizabeth did not go to sleep when she returns home; instead she sits behind her desk and goes over everything that had happened that night as she waits. When Edward suddenly appears in front of the desk she doesn't even twitch.

"Well?" She asks calmly.

"He asked questions naturally which I did not answer. I left them with his butler and returned here."

"Good" she nods. "No doubt Ciel will return here to talk to me but I should have a couple days while they mourn Lady Red." Edward nods and smiles at her.

"Then shall we get you into pajamas your lady?" Elizabeth's eyes narrow and she shakes her head.

"No you are going to answer some questions about those two men we saw today. What were they?" There is silence for a moment and eventually she raises her eyes to Edward's. Her gaze is cold and clearly states that he will not be moving until he answers her. Edward continues to look at her for a moment perfectly composed before he lets out the smallest of sighs and nods.

"They were grim reapers. They are supernatural beings whose job it is to reap the souls of those about to die." Elizabeth's eyes remain steady on his though the demon can easily see the turmoil hidden in them.

"Do they all possess those green eyes?" Edward does not frown in confusion though Elizabeth is sure she sees it in his eyes anyways.

"All the ones I have ever seen have them my Lady." She nods thoughtfully and then remains silent for a moment.

"They reap the souls of all the dead correct?" Edward's eyebrow rises slightly as he nods. "Do they keep records of this?" Suddenly Edward sees where she is going with this and he mentally smirks, again he merely nods however.

"Then I want you to find their records. See which reaper it was that reaped my…family and find any information about that night." Edward bows low and smiles sinisterly.

"May I take whatever steps are needed to receive this information?" Elizabeth's own smile turns cold as she nods.

"Of course; however do not forget your normal butler duties as well." She is pleased to see the slightest flicker of irritation in his eyes before he bows again.

"Yes My Lady." She smiles without warmth as she slowly and leisurely gets to her feet.

"Now ready me for bed."

Sorry for the long wait for the update. Thank LasNoches92gir her review got me off my ass and writing this haha. I know this chapter is not very exciting but the next one should have more Ciel. I think Edward is going to have a lot of fun messing with the reapers haha.
