What Have I Become?

Chapter 38: The Crime Of The Century.

(Eva's POV)

Ciel sat his fork down in disgust. "Why is that man always getting into trouble." He said while rubbing his forehead.

Sebastian rolled the papers back up and placed them in his pocket.

"I'm not quite sure young master. But, if we are going to find out which of the three committed the crimes, then we need to leave at once."

Ciel nodded his head. "Mey-Rin!" He called.

After a moment, the clumsy maid ran into the room and curtsied. "Yes, young master?"

"I need you to clean up in here. Do you think you can manage that without damaging anything?"

She slowly nodded her head. "Alright, we will return soon. Please do not destroy the manor while we are away."

She nodded again and left the room. Ciel stood up and sat his napkin down.

"Sebastian, meet us at the front door with my coat."

"Of course, young master." He bowed and left.

We made our way to the entrance hall, where Sebastian stood with Ciels coat. He put his coat on and opened the door.

We reached the carriage and stepped inside and made our way to town.

When the carriage pulled to a stop, Ciel took out the queens letter and skimmed over it.

"The crimes have been committed on this side of London. We need to check every alley way, every corner, anywhere the culprit might be."
Sebastian and I nodded and stepped out of the carriage and helped the young master out.

Ciel pointed to the nearest alley. "Let's try there first."

We both nodded once more and followed Ciel into the darkness.

We looked around to find no signs of murder in the area.

"Why don't I look on the rooftops and see if I can find anything from an areal view?" I asked.

"Yes, that would be best I believe." Ciel replied.

I nodded and climbed up onto the nearest rooftop. I scoped around the shadows looking for anything suspicious, until I saw red. Dammit Grell.

"Young master" I sighed. "I believe I have found him."

Ciel nodded and motioned for me to jump down. I did as I was told and landed beside them.

"He's this way, follow me." They both nodded and followed me to the red headed nuisance.

When we arrived, there stood Grell hovering over a mans body. The poor mans eyes were gouged out and his heart was ripped right out from his chest and thrown to the side.

"Grell, care to explain what you are doing?" Ciel asked, annoyance dripping from his words.

Grell jumped and stood up. He brushed off his coat and fixed his hair.
