[A/N for the back and forth but the chapters 19 to 22 will indeed talk a bit more of Black Butler than what I previously expected. I will be a mix of The Infernal Devices of Cassandra Clare and Black Butler the anime]

Amelia's Townhouse, Evening

"What in God's fucking tabarnak de merde is going here!?" She loudly said drinking her cup of Guan Yin tea. She had some scones on the plate on which was a porcelain teapot. Blue patterns on it imitating lotus flowers. A true cultural micmack but she didn't care for now. She was dead. She ordered her servants to leave her alone for the evening. What a damn day had this been!

....

This Morning

"I am deeply sorry but I will have to take a few days of leave. I wish that I could have given you an earlier notice." Said Lin deeply bowing. Amelia was sipping her tea with a gentle smile.

"There is not a need for that, our relationship has always been a mutual understanding. You are free to come and go as you please."

"But still..."

"I am not my cousin, I am capable of defending myself without you. Don't worry."

"Very well, my lady." Said the maid before going to do her luggage and leave to who knows where.

Amelia finished her cup of tea and summoned Mei, her other maid.

"Could you ask for a cab, I have a few errands to make." Said the lady was putting on her deep purple hat with a veil.

....

Underground of London, unknown location

"Hey Herder..."

"Hello to you Moran, but call me Q here, don't you?" The man with masked eyes said to the sniper.

"As you wish..." said Sebastian Moran.

He didn't quite understand what he was doing here. He was tasked by Will to help MI6 with something. He looked around.

There were a handful of guns and many everyday objects which had been upgraded. He tried to take a pistol but was stopped by Q.

"Would you kindly leave this alone...?" begged him Q trying to take it back but it was useless. Moran was taller than him and far more imposing.

Then as he was about to answer back the man by a sassy line, someone arrived behind him. That person posed her hand on his shoulder.

"Oh, my gosh. I should have come sooner! This is Alibaba's cavern!" squealed the person jumping over his shoulder.

He remained stunned. He saw a corner of the underskirt of Lady Amelia d'Assy. Against good manners, she didn't care the slightest. She simply grabbed a beautiful ancient sword which was on another table surrounded by daggers of the same style. Q arrived panic beside her.

"Aaaaaaaaah! The precious jian swords of the Shang Dynasty and the legendary Excalibur!!!!" whined the man.

"Nope, it is mine to keep now. After all, Will did say that I deserved a reward for the last time and for my detailed information," said smiling the lady.

The German was pouting but couldn't refute that statement. Will didn't specify her reward. Damn... Women could be scary when they wanted.

"You wouldn't know how to properly use them or appreciate them. The path of the sword requires a complete dedication unlike your guns." She said looking at the so-called legendary sword and the Chinese ones.
