"Why whatever for? Your decaying friends have all been safely disposed of." Sebastian reassured but the man denied. "No, they haven't!" "Oh?" You asked in an amused manner.
"You don't understand! We have no time! There's a giant boiler in the center of the ship that uses the newest reciprocating engine, the hold is split into two sections to accommodate the boiler room." He informed hurriedly as your brother spoke up.
"And why does that matter?" He asked, "Because it means there's an additional cargo area! A hold that's similar to this one, but carrying ten times as many subjects." He exclaimed.
"You can't be serious!" You breathed as Elizabeth held your arm for comfort. "So, what you're trying to say..." she started, "Is that right now the ship is most likely crawling with the undead." You finished as she hugged your arm.
"What do we do?" She asked in fear. You then pondered with a frown before deciding. "Sebastian, I want you to escort the marchioness and her family into a safe location." You ordered.
"And the rest of you?" Sebastian asked "We'd only slow you down. We're armed so we can manage for a while." Ciel said as he reloaded his gun. "Come straight back once you're certain they're safe." You ordered as the man nodded. "Yes, my lord."
"Now, then. It's time you give us more information." Ciel started as the man was brought to his knees by a snake and restrained. "First, how can those things be stopped?" You asked the first question as the man hesitantly answered.
"I..." "I'm not fond of repeating myself, I know you're not stupid. You wouldn't transport these things without safeguards. There's another way to stop them without destroying them is there?" You asked again.
"Well, yes, there is something. It's stored in my cabin. A special device that emits ultrasonic waves. It can be used to short circuit the patients." He answered as you then pressed the gun to his head. "Take us to it."

You had fell to your side when the ship had suddenly shifted. Stoker had lead you all to the boiler room where there were workers unaware of what was happening above.
"Damn!" You cursed as you hit your funny bone. "It seems it's steadied." Stoker confirmed as Ciel helped you up. "What was that? Did we hit something?" You asked when water suddenly started bursting inside the room.
The alarm bell ring and turned the room red as you and Elizabeth were knocked against a machine.
"The doors about to close on us!" "Hurry! You'll be trapped down here!" You held your head in pain as it hit the metal hard. You saw that everyone was running away and out the door.
"Elizabeth! Elizabeth!" You called as you shook her. She seemed to have gotten a bit lightheaded. "N/n! Lizzie!" Ciel called as you forced yourself up under the weight of your soaked clothes and helped Elizabeth up as well.
