Its been three weeks since i was trapped in the Trancy Manor, time appeared to go fast it seemed. As for Ciel and Sebastian, i was accompanying them on a case yet again. "You must be patient dear sister, i promise both of us will go home" was Sebastian's promise. It pains me that we were still here protecting a boy earl who clearly lost his memories. I knew from the second Ciel didn't know who Grell was i knew he didn't remember anything that had happened.

The only ones he did remember was me, Sebastian, and the four servants back at the mansion plus his long dead parents and the Queen everyone else was a stranger to him "well how long will that be?" i asked Sebastian for that he didn't have an answer. Ciel's next case was on a train. Finny was jumping around with joy at the trains bumping into loaders carrying a long box.

Inside revealed to be a mummy all the way from Egypt after the owner barked at Mey-Rin, Bard and Finny for touching it "that is a priceless antique". A priest with tattoos on his hands prayed over the mummy and prayed again when the mummy was moved into the train. We boarded the train with farewells from the servants. I had a feeling this train ride would be interesting indeed.

When we were in the private compartment, i was reading a book while Ciel and Sebastian was talking. I took off my pale green hat that matched the long sleeved pale green corset dress with mary janes my long white hair in a bun. They closed the blinds "that's Lord Akroyd he received a note to bring the ransom for his son on this train the amount was 5000 pounds" Ciel informed us "is that the going rate for a boys soul nowadays?, you humans have a funny way to price these things" i rolled my eyes "nice joke brother" as i continued to read. 

We made our way to the passanger car where that explorer was boasting that he found the Pharaoh Smenkhkare in the valley of kings "i was fortunate enough to met the pharaoh during his lifetime but its odd the mummy doesn't look a thing like him" Sebastian remarked "then its a fake then"  there was also a man who was obsessed with times tables and a grumpy Japanese man with a wife who kept offering rice balls to the passengers while a priest when an argument broke out Ciel was contemplating that any of these people could be the kidnapper.

A man dressed in a hat and long coat came into the passenger car and began dancing around "please calm yourselves i know your uneasy because we are transporting an assassin on this train but fear not he is kept in tight confinement" i shook my head that should of been kept a secret which made everyone stop and stare in horror he was run over by people running away i bent down and smiled at him in a cheeky way "you should have kept that to yourself or do you like being a carpet?" i grinned

He hugged Ciel when he recognized him. In the dining car the man was enjoying his food. It struck me, this was Abberline's twin brother! i happened to look when Ciel did and saw a pair of familiar gold eyes gaze at us while he was eating a dessert with tea i gripped Sebastian's hand and looked at him in horror. Sebastian looked at Claude as well in a glare. We stood up while Abberline's twin was pigging out. My brother made sure i was in the front when we left so Claude couldn't catch me.

The man who was the porter snuck passed us but Ciel knew who he was, we chased him all the way down to the last lounge car well Ciel and Sebastian did i was caught. "Claude let me go!" i tried to slap him but he caught my wrist "tsk, tsk, tsk is that anyway to treat your future husband?" i glared "i will never be yours, no matter what happens i'll never be by your side" Claude grinned at my remark, i had no one to help me Sebastian went after the kidnapper then Ciel was in the goods car. Claude forced me to transform into a bat caged me and took off "SEBASTIAN!!!!!!!!!!" I yelled out but by the time he would have heard me, i would be long gone.

Well, that's what i thought, Claude was knocked away and pinned with silver cutlery "i should kill you now for touching my younger sister" i was set free and i slapped Claude hard in the face leaving a bloody hand print i knew would heal when i was in  my human form again. Claude disappeared like a coward.

Well i cannot tell you much of what happened in the passenger car, only the assassin was set free, the priest was also an assassin and the one that was in prison was holding Ciel at knife point "Selcura stay here" my brother followed the assassin to the roof. Before he left, Sebastian explained there was a bomb on the train that would go off if the train stopped, he changed the course of the train and it was headed towards a broken bridge. Even Abberline's twin was suffering of cholera after eating a rice ball from the Japanese lady.

I screamed out from the pain from my shoulders up which made everyone look at me, Sebastian went through a stone bridge from how the pain felt, i ran towards a private area and fell down while my felt sebastian's pain from the feet and one hand while the train slowed "next time i get you alone I'm gonna hit you brother!" i growled out did he forget i felt the pain he would have?

I got off the train with everyone else, i saw Ciel being carried by Sebastian and he noticed i was angry by my eyes i could tell Claude was still in the train but i didn't care Sebastian cured Abberline insisting his so called Cholera was merely a mixture of the eel then the rice ball which gave him a stomach ache. Claude approached us come sundown i glared at him from what he had just pulled with me "what do you want?" "to give you this" he brandished an envelope and gave it to Sebastian "i expect your sister to accompany you as well, and refusal isn't an option" i knew something was up but i stayed with Ciel while we were boarding another train. I wondered what Claude gave my brother and i knew it wasn't good
