"So you propose we ask the reapers?" Ciel questioned your advice. "Yeah. I mean, think about it. They know just about everything. Don't you think they would know at least a thing or two about these fallen angels?" You've been trying to convince Ciel to go to the reapers all morning. It was a bit hard to do so, considering they're not really a good acquaintance to each other. Or at least the reapers and the butler. "I admit that it's not a bad idea, but either way they wouldn't cooperate with us that easily" Ciel stated. You knew he was right. "Well, what about Grell? I mean he does everything Sebastian ask him to do, for something in return of course" you said, making Ciel consider your suggestion. "I suppose you're right. But in the meantime, we should just focus on the case and hope that fallen angel doesn't show up" said Ciel. You only nodded in respond.

~~~~~~~~~~later on that day~~~~~~~~

At the circus

"Wow... This place is amazing!" You said as your eyes sparkled with joy. The circus looked more lively in person rather than from what you remember. You looked around the place and saw a lot of performers doing tricks and entertaining people. "Stay close, Y/N. We don't want you running into the wrong people" said Ciel. "Psh. Don't you remember I basically know everybody? I'm pretty sure I know who to avoid" you said, underestimating the crowd of people around you. Ciel rolled his eyes and all of you went into the tent.

In the crowd, outside of the tent, there was a dark figure. He was wearing a perfectly normal Victorian era outfit and a coat with a hood covering his head, hiding his features. "So, at last. I have finally found you, my little angel" the figure said with a dark and sinister smirk. He pulled down the hood off of his head, revealing a jet white hair, blood red piercing orbs, porcelain skin, and sharp fangs. And with that, he made his way into the tent, joining the crowd.

*inside the tent*

Y/N's POV

The tent was really crowded, but thankfully we managed to find us a spot. I was starting to get excited when I see, who it appears to be, joker. "Welcome ladies and gentlemen to Noah's Ark Circus! My name is joker, nice to meet ya!" He said while juggling balls before throwing it up high, making it all land on top of his head. The crowds laughed. I was enjoying the show, but couldn't shake off the feeling of someone watching me. I tried to ignore it and just watch the acts. "Now, introducing, Peter and Wendy!" Just then, the two of them started to swing up high in the air. I was scared for their life by watching them. Trully fascinating. I glanced toward Ciel and Sebastian who just seemed to be unamused, or they're just analyzing and doing their job. "See anything suspicious yet?" Asked Ciel towards the butler. "No, nothing suspicious here" suddenly Sebastian looks over at me with a questioning face "Y/N, I do believe you know where the children are" I quickly raised my hands up and say "Oh no, Sebby boi. You're not getting any shortcuts from me. I might give you a hint or two, but not an answer" Ciel sighed as he remembers "Right... the timeline" I nodded and said "exactly! You wouldn't want to ruin the space time continuum, now would you?".

"Now for this next act, we will need a volunteer. Step up, don't be shy!" Called out joker. Sebastian stood up and started to approach them. "Great idea, Sebastian. Observe the-" I interrupted Ciel and said "No, no, no. Not 'great idea, Sebastian'" Ciel looked at me with a confused face and asked "Why not?" I pointed my finger at Sebastian who was admiring the tiger and having everybody in shock.

"What the bloody hell does he thinks he's doing?!" Ciel distressfully tryied to comprehend the situation

"What the bloody hell does he thinks he's doing?!" Ciel distressfully tryied to comprehend the situation. "Oh come on, tigers are cats. Don't tell me you didn't see THAT coming"

"BETTY, SPIT HIM OUT!" Beast slashed her whip at betty, only to be stopped by Sebastian's hand. "I do greatly prefer if you don't use violence with her" Beast's face only seemed to grew red by his remark. "HOW DARE YOU TELL ME HOW TO DO MY SHOW" steam was practically visible at this point. Luckily joker stepped up before things got out of hand. "Now, now, Beast. It's your fault for not restraining Betty. After all, it is your responsibility" Beast just scoffed and walked away.

~~After the show~~

"A-aachoo!" Ciel sneezed from his allergy. "Damn you. You know I was allergic to cats" Sebastian was still smiling from the show "my apologies, young master. But I've lived so many years and never have I been so intrigued by anything other than cats" Ciel sneezed again and again. "Just stay far away from me!" and with that, he walked away.

"Guess you should've think about it twice before stepping up and causing a riot" you joked. Sebastian didn't seem to care. He just kept being dazzled by it. "Oi! Lad with the tailcoat" we heard Joker yelled for Sebastian and made him stop abruptly. "That was quite something, aye?" Joker jokingly said. "I do apologize for causing any worries" said Sebastian. I rolled my eyes and said "No, you're not" they just ignored you and continued to talk.

"Don't worry about it, lad. Although you really should go to the infirmary" Joker suggested

"No, that wouldnt be necessary"

"But if I let ya lad get injured, I will be in quite the trouble" Joker joked, insisting Sebastian to go with him, which he eventually do.

You were left alone. Deciding to make yourself useful, you investigate the tents. Carefully walking through the first stringers tent, you came across a snake. Scared by it, you started to back away from the snake. The snake sprung upwards to your face. You quickly cover your face with your arm, bracing yourself for the attack. But there was none.

"My, my, you should really be more careful, little angel" said an unfamiliar voice. You moved your arms away from your face and saw a tall figure. He was holding the snake in a tight grip.

"What did you just call me....?"

"I've been waiting for the perfect moment to meet you"

"Whoa whoa whoa. Who are you? And why are you calling me angel?"

"My, how rude of me. I apologize. I am Alexander. Your guardian angel. I've been looking over you this entire time"

Your eyes grew wide. "So you're the one..."

"Indeed"

He started to walk closer to you.

"I want you to form a contract with me"

"W-what?"

"I will do everything you say. I will be your servant, your guardian, your loyal butler"

"Do you want to eat my soul too?"

"On the contrary, I want to protect it from those demons" his eyes turned blue. Not sky or ocean blue. But bright flame blue.

You were confused. Why would this angel want to protect your soul? Is he even trust worthy?

"Why?"

"Your soul is one of a kind. It's so rare that every demon wants a taste"

You were starting to give in. Maybe you should form a contract with him. But before you could say anything else...

"Y/N! Get away from him!!!"

Cutleries were being thrown at the angel. He dodge them swiftly.

"Ah, so you were the one who had been trespassing the manor. I don't believe we've met. But I do appreciate it if you would step away from her" said Sebastian.

Alexander smirked at him.

Both butler got their weapons ready.

"Make me"
