Cards vs Chess (Ciel x OC)

{Chapter 9}

Lord Phantomhive has requested to stay at my manor so I ordered Dane to prepare a room. It was the morning when Dane walked into my study with a letter from the queen.

"Dear Colligor and Phantomhive,

There has been cases of Englishmen being hung. Arthur Randall can inform you of more information. I want you both to find out who's hanging the men and put a stop to this act.

Queen Victoria

"Dane, please fetch Phantomhive." He bowed and walked off. The earl then walked in a little later. I handed him the letter. "Looks like our mission starts now. He gave a nod.

We arrived at where Randall and the bodies were. I saw the inspector known as Abberline talking about me and earl Phantomhive. I placed a hand on his shoulder. "Abberline, do you have the right to sully me and lord Phantomhive's title?" He turned around and gasped. "L-lady Colligor?" I smirked. "What's the matter, cat got your tongue?" He gulped and backed off. Randall then came into my full view. "What does the stray want?" I showed him the letter. "I thank you for the compliment." I said. He narrowed his eyes and moved aside. Me and Ciel walked closer to the bodies. "Hm... a funny sign they have on." I pointed to the piece of paper taped onto the body with a tongue sticking out. "With this, they are mocking us Englishmen. It's the Indians, I'm sure!" Randall said. I raised a brow. "The Indians have a little area to themselves a little out from here." Phantomhive said. I gave a nod and we ventured there.

We were walking through the filthy streets when Ciel bumped into a man. He started howling in pain saying something about a hurt rib. I raised a skeptic eyebrow. A crowd started forming. They insisted that we did a cruel deed to "hurt" the man. "Leave all your goods for us if you know what's best!" They said. "I can't deal with this right now." I complained. Then, I heard a voice. "I'm looking for this woman. Have you seen her?" Everyone turned to the person who asked the question. An Indian that looked like royalty was the person who asked. He had an Indian butler with a bandage on his right hand. I saw Dane crinkle his nose. "What is this, a duel? Well then, I shall side with my people. Agni!"
