You and Ciel were in his office. You were helping him organize and throw out letters and mail. Sebastian and Laura were also helping by taking the junk mail out.

"What about this one?" You said as you held up an old letter.

"Throw it out." He said.

You placed it on the throw out pile.

Suddenly, the door was kicked down. Two men came in. They wore white suits much like Sebastian's and had swords and had fully white hair. Their eyes where grey. One of them was tall and the other was shorter than him. The tall one's hair was short but the shorter guy had short hair by the front and long hair at the back.

"My door!" Ciel yelled.

The shorter guy gave an evil look at Sebastian. "Hello, Sebastian."

"Hello, Earl Grey." Sebastian said.

"What are you two doing here?" Ciel asked.

"Relax, Phantomhive. We are here because the queen wants to talk to you about something." The short one said.

"Why didn't she send a letter like she always does?"

"She will explain everything once we leave. Now." He said.

"Now?" Ciel asked.

They both nodded.

"I'm sorry, but who are you two?" You asked.

The short guy smiled. "I'm Charles Grey."

"And I'm Charles Phipps." The tall one said.

"We're known as the 'Double Charles' and Her Majesty's private Secretarial officers and butlers." Charles Grey said. "And whom are you?"

You curtsied. "I am (F/N) (L/N). Pleased to meet you."

"We should all leave, now." Charles Phipps said.

"Fine. Lets go, everyone." Ciel said.

Everyone walked in to the Queen's grand home. You were astonished by everything in it.

"Welcome, Ciel and his companions." The Queen said.

"Good afternoon, Queen Victoria." Ciel said as he bowed. "I believe you have something to talk about."

"Indeed I do. Who are these two girls accompanying you? Are they to be trusted?" She said.

"This is (Y/N), my girlfriend, and this is Laura, Sebastian's girlfriend. I met (Y/N) at your ball. They are very trustworthy." Ciel said.

You and Laura bowed to the Queen. "It's an honor meeting you." You both said.

The Queen looked at you and Laura. "I see my ball for you worked, how lovely. Very well then. Phipps, prepare the tea and Grey, escort everyone to the Grand Hall."

"Yes, my Queen." Both Charles said as they bowed.

Everyone was settled down and seated, drinking tea while discussing.

"Why have we been gathered here and not within an explanation of a letter? Ciel asked.

The Queen sipped her tea. "Well, I suppose you all are aware of the resent murders and break-ins that have been occurring in this area?"

"Yes we have." Laura said.

"The casualties that have been murdered were all noble men in or around their late 20's or early 30's. When murdered, their homes were trashed as if looking for something but nothing was reported stolen from every home we have investigated. The only problem is, we don't know how they were murdered." The Queen explained. "We have an idea of possible heart attacks, but we are not sure."

"Who would kill someone and just trash their homes for no reason?" You said.

The Queen shook her head. "I believe there is a reason for everyone's actions. Earlier this week, my butlers have captured a drug smuggler. He has been questioned and he says that there is a rumor of an ancient murder and torture book that a noble man is hiding. The murderer might be looking for that book and I need you to investigate this and find out who the murderer is."

"I swear on my family's name, that I will find this person." Ciel said. "Anymore information we need?"

"Not at the moment. If I ever do find more, I am sure to send you a letter." The Queen said.
