"Aaah..." I sighed and placed a stamp on the list with the info of the ordinary human soul. After I closed the book with another sigh, I placed it in my pocked and grabbed my chainsaw.

To give a brief explanation, this chainsaw is my Death Scythe - a weapon that is designed to cut the connection between the soul of the person and his or hers memories. Our small group use those kind of weapons to check if the person on the To-Die list is worth living on or can be left dead.

I pulled the chainsaw out of the man's body and swiftly cleaned it from the blood. I glanced up at the moon and fixed my glasses.

"Ah, what a lovely night! I bet Sebas-chan would love to spend a night like this with me!" Then I laughed and jumped high in the air, landing on the roof of the house which was right next to me. "Today's list is finished! Now I have quite a lot time to spend with Sebas-chan until dawn!"

After spending few more moments watching the moon, I sped up towards the Phantomhive mansion, hopping from a roof to a roof.

Now allow me to explain. I know that many of you think that I am still rarely seen by Ciel Phantomhive and his butler, Sebastian - Ah! My Sebas-chan! - Michaelis. But a lot has happened since then and now I am currently under the custody of earl Phantomhive. I have decided to start living with them and to follow Ciel and Sebas-chan's orders. Partly this have been just to be closer to my beloved Sebas-chan, but I have some other reasons too that I won't share yet.

Anyways, I was already really close to the mansion, so I started slowing down and jumped down on the road. The rest of the way to the mansion's front door I simply walked quietly and not hurrying at all.

I wanna note that the garden of the Phantomhive mansion is really a piece of artwork. Well, to be honest, I mostly love the beautiful blood red roses when they bloom in there, since they are my favourite color... Just like my hair.

Ah! My beautiful, long red hair! I stopped walking and looked at one big puddle on the road. The moon shone behind me and made my mirrored image visible.

I looked at my bright green eyes, the red glasses and fixed my bright red hair a bit. Perfection for Sebas-chan, that's what's most important! Well, our love is even more important, but whatever.

I smiled at my mirrored image, my sharp teeth showing. It looked more like a mischievous grin thought. I finally looked away from the image and continued walking to the Phantomhive manor.

Soon I reached it and without knocking on the door, I entered the building and closed it behind me quietly. I didn't really want to wake up Ciel, since he is still a child...

I slapped my forehead. What am I even thinking? I then shook my head and headed to my room. Grim reapers - yep, I am a grim reaper - need to sleep after all.

On the way to the assigned for me room I heard voices from the drawing room. Quietly, not to make them hear my footsteps, I crawled to the slightly opened door and froze in place, listening to the voices.

"Are you sure the Bradlinston Tea Company wants to make that deal? It looks quite ridiculous to offer so much money on such little thing..." the voice was a bit childish, but with a respectable dose of authority. It was Ciel's voice.

"Yes, my lord. Would you like to invite the owner of the company for dinner to discuss the deal?" At this voice my hair almost rose up with emotions. It was Sebby's voice!

I had to place hand on my mouth so I don't squeal with emotions and had to hold myself from jumping to Sebastian and (trying to) hug him. After few seconds of struggling with myself, I managed to keep quiet and continued listening.
