Black Butler: Undertakers daughter

Home again

"Finally!" Flare says and she says "And nothing changed at all" she adds earning a chuckle from Ciel "Hey Isa, why did your other master fire you?" she asks earning a sigh "Found out I'm a vampire with a weird family" she says, Lizzy runs over and hugs Ciel "I was worried" she says and she sees Flare as well "Before you open your mouth, you should know I'm a fellow noble" Flare says and Ciel says "We stayed with her grandmother" "That creepy lady that never seems to age?" Lizzy asks earning a sweatdrop "She's not creepy" Isabella says and Lizzy facepalms "A lady shouldn't act like that, I see Sebastian already left to prepare some tea" Isabel says ushering the three to the lounge "Also young miss, are you still talented with ice skates?" she asks and Flare says "Of course I am, I practice every winter" "Wasn't there a contest each three years where nobles compete?" Lizzy asks, but Ciel says "They stopped since less and less joined and normal people weren't allowed". "Why didn't you stay with your grandmother?" Sebastian asks earning a shrug "Guess I'm used to the everyday chaos here" Flare says with a smile "Wait, does that mean I can't do anymore things to help out? I liked cooking" she says, Ciel thinks for a while "You can do cooking and gardening, nothing else" he says.

They have tea in the garden and Lizzy says "What's your gardener doing?" "Destroying the flowers Flare planted" Ciel says calmly when they hear someone fall on the ground "Don't worry about it" Flare says watching vines shoot out of the ground to put Finny away from them "Magic flowers, all they need is rainwater" she adds "Wanted to plant them in the entire garden, but I didn't since Finny would lose his job", Ciel looks at Finny who walks over and he says "You have a point there" "Young master, why didn't Flare tell me about the flowers?" he asks, but he's handed a book named 'gardening for beginners' "Go and read that" Flare says with a sigh "They were just protecting themselves from you anti weed stuff" she mumbles. "They look like it" Finny counters so the group looks at the bright colored flowers, so Flare gives Finny another book names 'Magical flowers for beginners' and Finny looks at her "Those are flowers" Lizzy says tilting her head "Odd ones, but still, saw them planted all around the mansion walls" "Because by planting them like that the flowers will defend the manor and the grounds belonging to the Phantomhives, also planted them at the edge of the garden" Flare says "But they take several days to bloom, the vines become more deadly the older the plant it, and they're angel sensors, when one is trying to get in the flowers will trap him/her before tossing them far away. Same with a certain pesky spider I might add".

Life sort of returned to normal in the manor, besides that Isabel and Sebastian were getting along great and that Flare more often then not lazied around like no one's business "Ah it seems our supernatural sensing guest is back" Sebastian says and Flare sighs sitting up from her laying position ob the couch in the library "Liliana Knight" the man says looking unimpressed "Lord Phantomhive demanded I apologized to you for last time" he adds so Flare rolls her eyes "Okay, just give Isa the gun" she says, but it's obvious he's uncomfortable as he doesn't make any attempts to hand ot over "Isabel, please take all his weapons" Flare says and within seconds the guy is weaponless "Now it appears we can finally do some business" Ciel says walking in "Business, right" Flare mumbles and she goes back to reading her book "I'm here on request of the queen, she thinks you might know something about the missing people" the man says, Sebastian opens a file and says "Actually, the only person who might know something is the Undertaker" "How did you get that file?" the man asks, Flare sighs and says "Let's go and visit my dad then", she stands up and she leaves saying "Back in 10 mimutes".

Exactly 10 minutes later she walks back in and she says "Beheaded after being killed, if they're found anyway, according to my dad they're middle class people, occasionaly there's a poor guy, but it seems it only happens when someone gets too close to the underground secrets. The killer is a vampire who had been hired by the queen to keep the undergrounds things save, but a noble was killed, one who was on a business trip and part of my information network, the queen fired the vampire three weeks ago, but the killings haven't stopped yet". Ciel and the man look at her confused and Sebastian asks "Where did you go in those 10 minutes?" "First to the Undertaker for about 4 minutes, ran into Aberline who gave me some quick summary of what they have, that took around 2 minutes, spend 3 minutes talking to the queen and then came back here" Flare says, this time the two non human servants are surprised as well. "You just walked in to talk to the queen?" the guest asks earning a nod "Simply put, we're looking for this guy" she says showing a picture "And you dear guest are not part of the underground network, considering it's crawling with vampires, he's after you, I passed him on the streets" she says as she sits back down "He looked at me, gave me a nod of greeting and continued on his way. Underground business is solved by either Ciel or by my family, not by you" she adds crossing her arms "And technically you led him right to the guy he wants to kill" Ciel comments, but Flare shakes her head "Full vampires aren't immune to the gas of my flowers, their sense of smell will be almost gone". So after deciding to let the guy handle himself Ciel looks at Flare "You really did that in 10 minutes?" he asks earning a nod "Almost didn't make it back within those minutes though" she says rubbing the back of her head "And I just read the file at my dad's place, so I was done pretty quickly there" she says "Can I go back to lazying around now?" "Just don't fall asleep in the library" Sebastian says, but he simply earns a "No promises".
