A Grim Reapers Daughter (Black Butlers Undertaker x oc)

25: Think of the children

Too adorable. And trigger warning ⚠️ injured children or disabled ones⚠️ don't like don't read. Featuring the last 5 lines of a song that I doubt you'll remember, here's a hint: it's from a Barbie movie.

Victoria's POV:

I was in my office when a couple of papers were stacked in front of me. "What's all this?" I asked. "It's info on the children's hospital and orphanage, we have to help out there for at least a day and they are expecting you there . . . tomorrow."
"Ronald if this weren't a child situation and you weren't like a brother to me, I'd jump over this desk and punch you." "Yeah . . . good luck tomorrow," he said.

"Hey dad, did you have to go to the children's hospital and orphanage when you became a reaper?" He ate a biscuit while thinking. ". . . Not in my day no." "Well it's expected of us now and I'm not sure I can do it," I said. "Remember what I told you to say when you doubt yourself." He held up my chin, "who are you?" He knows how to make me happy if I ever doubt myself. "Don't worry I'll be there at the orphanage waiting for you." "Why not be at both places with me?" I asked. "Let's just say I don't do good with hospitals down here, children's or not." I just took a biscuit and went to my room.
"Victoria," I turned the corner, "I'll tell you why another day."

🏥the next day at the hospital🏥

"Hello I'm Victoria, reaper of the GRDA." "Oh yes, we've been expecting you, and the children are excited," the lady at the front desk said. A nurse lead me to the room where the children play and when I got there it was really a sight to see. Children of all colors playing together. "They're just healing from becoming reapers, soon they'll go to family's or the orphanage," the nurse said. "Really, what about the ones missing arms or legs or the crippled ones?" "They get the same treatment, but once they find a home we send the family the information." The girl in the wheelchair saw me, stopped what she was doing, and wheeled herself over to me. "You're Victoria, the vampire reaper. Can I see your death scythe?" "Sure, just roll back three feet." She and a couple of other girls were mesmerized by my scythe, then one boy asked, "is it an actual guitar?"
I turned the volume up one, played one note, and when I looked back at the boy I had both my yellow-green and red eyes. "Does that answer your question."

I had a good time at the hospital, such a good time, that I left with a song called Under The Sea. Their playroom inspired it—since it was painted to look like we were under the sea. Now it was off to the orphanage.

💀🖤at the orphanage🖤💀

"The children have been wanting to see you and thank you so much for the soup," the head of the orphanage said. "I'll take you and your, father, to them."
We were in their little playground, children running up and down and all around. "It's not much but, they've got slides and monkey bars," the head said. "And they've got each other, " Undertaker said. He pointed at a group of boys playing together. "Yes and that, I'll call the kids."
We went inside and . . . "KIDS GET YOUR BUTTS OVERHERE NOW!" "No wonder they looked so happy outside," dad said. "I'll say, the inside looks like a mess." "That's because it's not clean up time yet." The voice in the corner said. When she finally decided to come out, the girl was blonde and looked my age, literally like she could have been alive 118 years. "I'm Illianna, I'm one of the girls that take care of the babies here, the others are getting groceries." "Or running for their lives hihi," my dad whispered. "Illianna get back to the babies!" "I hope I see you, again, Victoria." That poor girl is dressed like a maid and she probably hates her job. I felt someone poking me, I looked down, a little boy. "Are you the legendary vampire reaper?" "The first female reaper," a girl behind him said. "I don't know . . . Do these red eyes and fangs answer the question?" The boy ran to his bedroom screaming. "Ahhh sweet music, speaking of music kids wanna hear a song I wrote?" The ones in the front jumped up and down while the older ones nodded.

🎸time skip brought to you by Under The Sea and a couple other songs🎹

"Alright before I go I wanna give you kids a treat. Dad did you bring the jar?"
"Hihihi and guess what's inside it hihi." I don't know how he had it in him, but he kept that jar of bone biscuits with him this whole day . . . and didn't eat one. "Uh, did you make these, or did he?" this 10 year old asked. I noticed that so far the children who had one didn't eat it. "We both did little ones," Undertaker hasn't said a word in front of them since they came in from recess. "We worked as a team which is what you all will do when you join the GRDA, retrieval squad or not." ". . . *munch* Oh wow that's so good." "I want one." No I want one first." "Is it supposed to be a biscuit shaped like a bone?" That had him laughing, in the end there was one left and I knew who to give it to.

🍼the babies room🍼

"Hey, Illianna, I have to go hope I'll see you again." "You too, I'd hug you right now but I'm a little busy." She had a baby in her hands that wouldn't go to sleep. "Let me try," I said. Illianna put the baby in my hands but was still fussing. "Try this," she whispered a song in my head. "Let's hope it works," I sat down in a rocking chair.

"Constant as the stars above
Always know that you are loved
And my love shining in you
Will help you make your dreams come true
Will help your dreams come true."

The baby was sound asleep. "I'll take it from here." "Hey you've got to teach me the rest of the song," I said. "I'll send you the lyrics," Illianna said.

💀🖤at home🖤💀

"Hehe, your a natural with them," dad said. "Yeah, I guess I am." I was going to my room when his hand pulled me back. "Young lady I waited for god knows how long and didn't eat those biscuits." He whispered in my ear, "you owe me." That sent shivers down my spine. "Fine I'll bake new ones with you." He yayed like a child. I got changed quick—into a T-shirt and green sweatpants—then went to the kitchen where I saw him in an apron with a purple bone biscuit on it that says Father. "I had these made this morning," he threw me one. It said Daughter.
He put the apron on me, "what do you say dearie, let's bake as a team?"
" . . . Dad."
"Mhmmm?"
"You forgot the eggs."
He looked back but they were still there. "Gotcha, haha."

Undertaker's POV:

"Heeheehee." Now we were even. She ran past me and got started on the biscuits. "Hihi, remember dearie only two eggs and one cup of sugar." "Yeah yeah."
