Lady And The Demon (Black Butler Fanfiction)

5. Celeste Phantomhive

I swear that girl is getting on my last nerve!

I inwardly growl at the comment my father made. Amusing?! Seriously?

"Celeste. You seem quiet." My Father states.

"I'm fine." I mumble.

"My lord, perhaps it was the comment you made about Ana earlier." Sebastian says.

I didn't know being one hell of a butler meant you can read minds too.

"Is that true, Celeste?" Father asks.

"Does it matter? The reason won't be amusing enough." I say.

"Good grief."

I glare at Ana and roll my eyes as we continue to walk the town.

"Lord Phantomhive. What are we looking for?" Ana asks.

"We are looking for someone who has been creating mass disruption around London. Killing locals and what not." Father replies.

"Mass murderer?" Ana asks.

"Basically." Father replies.

"Master. Perhaps we should split up. To look for more clues." Sebastian says.

"Splitting up? Can Bassy be my partner?" Grell asks. Jayce and I roll our eyes as we ride.

"Good idea Sebastian. You will go with me. Celeste go with Jayce. Grell, you take Greyson and Ana." My father says.

"Objection. I refuse to work with them. I work alone." Ana says.

"It isn't safe to work alone." Sebastian says.

"I'll be fine. Besides, I'm used to it." Ana mumbles.

"If she wants to work alone by all means. Let her work alone." I say. Father shoots me a look.

"Fine if you can handle it." Father says. Ana nods as the carriage stops.

"Ana. Be safe." Sebastian says.

"I will." She says and starts to one side of the city.

"Independent one she is." Sebastian murmurs.

"Come along Sebastian." My father says.

"Yes my lord." Sebastian replies.

"Be safe children. Come back alive." Father says.

"Same to you father." Jayce replies. We go our separate ways.

"We'll stay safe too!" Grell yells.
