Lady And The Demon (Black Butler Fanfiction)

"I can't believe we're in France."

Allie says.

"Yeah, I know." I say. Celeste sits quietly by the railing. She's been like that ever since she's officially met Hunter.

I guess I should've gave her the heads up about the whole Hunter being Ciel's wife and all. Then again that wasn't my information to share.

"I've never seen the Eiffel Tower up close before." Greyson says.

As the others are marveling over France, I walk over to Celeste and sit next to her.

"Are you alright?" I ask.

"Yeah. Just confused I guess." Celeste says.

"What's bothering you?" I ask.

"Do you think Father and Jayce ought to know about Hunter?" She asks quietly. I shrug.

"It would be nice for them to know. But Hunter faked her death for a reason. No human can know. You and Allie aren't even supposed to know." I explain.

"Is that why she's always a dog?" Celeste asks. I laugh quietly.

"Yeah." I say.

"Come on, let's go discuss our plans." I say. Celeste nods and stands with me. We walk over to the others who are still chattering excitedly.

"Alright, here's what's going to go down." I say. Everyone stops talking and looks at me.

"First I have to locate our dads so I can scout for an angel. Celeste, you, Allie, and Hunter go to this hotel, give the manager this and he'll give you a room." I hand Celeste an envelope. She looks down and reads it.

"This is the hotel that father is staying at." She says.

"I know. Hunter, whatever you do, don't change into you human form." I say. The wolf whines but snorts with agreement.

"The rest of us are going to make sure the others don't get sacked by evil angel thingys." I say.

"Thingys?" Colton chuckles.

"Shut up." I smile.

"Ew. Love." Jake says. Greyson frowns at him but quickly smirks when he realizes I'm looking at him questioningly. I raise an eyebrow but shake my head. I clap my hands together to get others' attention.

"All right troops. Let's do this."

"So you know where they are?" Greyson asks.

"No clue. But it should be easy to find them." I say.

"How do you know?" Ashley asks.

"Simple. We listen for Grell's fawning over Dad, a sound of impact followed by Alois's obnoxious laughter." I say cooly. Ashley, Colton, and Greyson laugh. Jake cracks a smirk and we continue to walk. Then we hear a very annoying but surprisingly reassuring voice.

"Oh Bassy! You're so mean to me!"

Whack!

Que the obnoxious laughter. I smirk in victory and hide behind a wall with the others in tow. I peek around the corner and sure enough, Ciel and Alois are leading the way, followed by Dad and Claude, Grell walking close to Dad rubbing a bump on his head with Will behind him.

"Told they hadn't been captured yet." I whisper to Jake. He makes a face at me before we continue to spy.

"Ana. Look." Colton says. I follow his gaze and see figures lurking around the group.
