SPECIALS #1

(With Claude)

Claude Faustus groaned as he opened amber eyes. He looked around at what would be a dark and desolate land that he recognized as the Desert of Hell. "Damn, now where in the Nine Hells did I end up?" he questioned as he got shakily to his feet before a crippling pain shot up his backside. "Oww… Now to get back to the Human World and finish my contract and still one of those cubs," he said with a shaky breath. He focused on opening portal to the Human World when the black portal that started to form had two chains crossed over one another in an 'X' with a white sign in the middle that said 'KEEP OUT!'.

"Wha?" Claude blinked before trying to tear the chains and sign down before it glowed a bright red and burned him. He yelped and watched in shock as the portal disappeared. "What just happened?" he questioned.

Deranged laughter reached his ears, and he turned to see a dark mist forming and a woman with long red hair that fell to the sand and obsidian black eyes stepped out, wearing a blood red dress. The woman smiled at him, fangs flashing sharply and glinting. "Oh won't this be fun," she cooed.

"Excuse me my lady, but I'm afraid I have never seen you around before," Claude said with a false smile.

"Of course you haven't silly," the woman giggled, moving closer while Claude stepped back unconsciously. "You know, me and the girls are always looking for someone to entertain us," she purred.

The normally stoic Spider demon gulped in fear. "Um, I'm late for a meeting," he lied, not liking the look on the woman's face.

"Oh sweetheart, surely you could make time for me and the girls," the woman batted her eyelashes as she slipped closer.

"No really. I can't," Claude gulped nervously as the woman placed a hand on his chest.

"I really don't think you have a choice," the woman said with a smirk as she snapped the fingers of her other hand, and they both disappeared in a cloud of dark smoke.

(With Grell)

"Ah, I finally finished the paperwork," Grell said as he stepped out of his office and stretched. "Really, how can they expect a woman like me to sit behind her desk for days on end without even a bathroom break?" he muttered, looking around. "Oh William~" Grell called out as he walked down the corridor and poked his head into William's office.

"What is it Sutcliff?" William asked, frowning as he read one of Grell's reports.

"I, uh, finished all the paperwork. I was wondering if you would let me leave the building now?" Grell asked.

"Very well. You will show up for work tomorrow though as we had some more come in while you were doing the first 10 sets," William said.

Grell groaned as he left.

Grell was walking down the streets when a woman with a woman with silver hair and amethyst eyes appeared in front of him. "Ah, may I help?" he asked when the woman kept following him.

"I suppose you could. You see, me and the girls are having a party later, and I've been asked to bring some entertainment," the woman said, sliding up to him with a soft smirk.

"Sorry, but I don't bend that way," Grell said, watching her out of the corner of his eyes.

"Oh, I know deary. It is so hard to be a woman," the woman sighed.

"Exactly! And no man seems to understand that!" Grell cried, spinning to face the woman.

"Precisely," the woman sniffed. "I know, why don't you come to the party, and we will give you some tips and there will be glitter~" the woman crooned.

"Red glitter?" Grell's eyes became large and hopeful.

"Oh yes, several bags and tubs full of red glitter. Along with red fabrics, red beads and anything else you can imagine being red," the woman purred. "Plus we will be having a very special guest," the woman hummed.

"Who?" Grell asked in a deathly faint voice.

"Oh, I promised I wouldn't say," the woman said sorrowfully with a pout.

"I… is it someone I know?" Grell asked.

The woman nodded. "A certain demon," she said with a coy smile.

"Sebastian?" Grell said excitedly, clasping his hands like an excited child.

The woman's smile got bigger.

"I'm there!" Grell screeched in happiness, hugging the woman.

The woman smirked sadistically before they disappeared in a light purple haze.

(With the Phantomhive Servants)

"Is it just me or is Mr. Sebastian and Mr. Harry more exhausted now?" Bard asked as he helped Mey-Rin do the dishes while Finny scrubbed the floor.

"Yes it is very strange," Finny said as he sat back on his knees.

"I wonder what happened," Mey-Rin said as she put down the dishes.

"I have no idea, but I suppose we will never find out either. Mr. Sebastian is the Head-Butler, and we really can't question him," Bard said as he put the dishes up.

"That's done," Finny said as he stood up, dropping the brush into the bucket, making the water slosh slightly.

"Well, I guess we should help with the gardening or laundry next," Bard said as he lit a cigarette.

"I need to put the laundry out on the line," Mey-Rin said, adjusting her glasses.

"I can trim the trees and bushes near the side then," Finny said with a nod.

Bard sighed as he handed another piece of laundry to Mey-Rin to put up when Pluto howled.

"Plu-Plu!" Finny called.

"Pluto!" a voice called dangerously. "Get that fluffy tail of yours back here!"

"Miss Lorabelle?" Finny asked as Pluto bounded into sight and tried to hide behind him as Lorabelle approached.

"Hello Finny. I need to borrow Pluto for a bit. I promised some friends of mine that I would bring a dog," Lorabelle said, coming to a stop beside the clothes line.

"Why would ya' need a dog?" Bard asked, looking at Pluto who was whimpering.

Lorabelle shrugged. "I think they just wanted a guard dog. I can't be sure," she said.

"Well… alright, but don't let nothing bad happen to him, okay?" Finny said as he pulled out a leash and clipped it to Pluto's collar, and he handed it over to Lorabelle who quickly slipped a muzzle over his face.

"No fire-breathing," she said, clipping the two ends together. "We'll be back later," Lorabelle called as she walked away with Pluto who was looking over his shoulder at them with betrayal in his eyes.

"Bye Pluto!" Finny called, waving his hand good-bye.

The three servants were weeding the garden when they saw a pretty woman with shoulder-length white-blonde hair and dreamy blue eyes approached them.

"She is pretty, yes she is," Mey-Rin said just as the woman reached them.

"Well, thank you Miss. I was wondering if Mr. Harry was here," she said tilting her head.

"Yes, do you know him?" Finny asked, looking at her with stars shining in his eyes.

"Yes. We went to the same school before I had to leave," the woman responded with a tight smile.

"Alright, I suppose I can go and get him," Bard said as he stood and left.

It was a few minutes before Bard returned with a confused Harry, who immediately came to a pause at the sight of the woman in a glistening, silvery blue dress.

"Uh, hi," Harry said sheepishly.

"Harry. I see those Wrackspurts have finally left you alone," the woman said, a smile gracing her features.

Harry chuckled. "Yeah, I suppose they have. Um, I guess we're leaving for the night?"

"Yes, your sister will make sure you get home tomorrow sometime. A few of us have been asked to bring entertainment while others have been asked to retrieve the other guests," the woman said.

Harry nodded before looking at the three servants. "Can you three tell Sebastian and the Young Master that I will be back sometime tomorrow? Oh and tell Sebastian that I'm sorry and that Lorabelle's Riders will be helping him," Harry added the last part quickly.

"Uh, sure?" Bard said, glancing at the other two before returning his attention to Harry and the woman. "Harry?" he asked, looking around for both him and the strange woman.

"Oh where did he go?" Mey-Rin asked worriedly, looking around also.

"Turn our heads for one moment and they both disappear," Finny said with a small frown.

"Odd if you ask me. Just like how Mr. Sebastian disappeared right after he passed that pie to us and told us to clean it up," Bard said with frown while the other two nodded in agreement.

"Ho ho ho," Tanaka said from his spot on a red-and-white-checkered picnic blanket whilst sipping his tea.

Update! Well, not really as far as the story line itself goes, but hey, it is something... I know I shouldn't be cruel and leave you guys hanging, but hey, it gives me time to right the next part and you guys to send reviews.

Review for basically what you all want to happen to Claude and Grell.

Ciel's and Sebastian's reaction to Harry going missing will probably be in the next chapter... somewhere.

See you all later!
