A Box Of Kittens

Chapter 13

Hey guys, so I'm bored and I've got nothing else to do so I've written the next chapter, as you can see, so I hope you enjoy the early update. The video up there is my favourite scene from the Black Butler Hamlet special, the best one after Ciel in Wonderland.

"Eh?! Is that right? You saw a figure in all white kidnapping Master Ciel?!" Finny exclaimed. Their witness, Isabella Vance, nodded slowly before she added: "He had the young Phantomhive hung over his shoulders and another, a blonde boy wearing purple, over his other. I assume he managed to get to the butlers before the Earls were taken."

"Ciel!" Elizabeth sobbed, tears leaking from her eyes in rivers that ran down her face in streams, and dropped off her chin. Soma hugged Elizabeth before wailing out loud himself, tears bursting forth from his eyes. "My Prince, my Lady, you must calm down. We will find Ciel and Sebastian, as well as the others that were taken," Agni said, pulling out a handkerchief, on which Soma blew his nose before turning to Elizabeth and hugging her, soothing her.

"Don't worry, Lady Lizzy, we'll find Master Ciel in no time!" Finny cheered.

"We still have little to no evidence..." Bard and Mey-Rin muttered under their breaths, although the others didn't seem to hear them. Just then, Tanaka came in through the door to the room they were in with a tray full of tea and other refreshments.

"I thought I heard crying," he said, pouring out the tea into the cups and handing them out. Before giving a cup to Mey-Rin however, he warned her not to break it like the last set of fine China they had. Mey-Rin's face flushed red, and she stuttered that she wouldn't make a mess. Tanaka handered her a cup.

"So, tell us, what does this man look like?" Agni presses on, gazing intently at Isabella.

"AAAAAAH! Save me, Bassy!" Grell wailed, hanging from a chandelier in one of the exhibits of the museum, clawing frantically at the glass to ensure he won't fall. He slipped and fell, screeching, and landing in Sebastian's arms. "My hero~" Grell gazed into his eyes, batting his eyelashes at him. Sebastian dropped him, and Grell landed on his tail with a loud thump.

"Bassy, that hurt! You could at least warm me if you want to be rough!" Sebastian sighed but ultimately ignored this.

"How?! How did you even get up there?!" (your name) exclaimed, laughing so hard that tears leaked out of the corners of her eyes; Undertaker too was crying from laughter.

"I don't know, it just happened," Grell sulked.

"Okay, all of you, back in my bag, I need to be doing schoolwork!" (your name) held her bag out unfeiner of her and the cats, one by one, climbed back into it. 

"Sebastian, your tail is in my mouth!" Ciel complained.

"I apologise, my Lord."

Later that afternoon, (your name) and her fellow classmates were allowed to go home early due to the fact that it was nearly the end of the school day. She sighed in relief as she clambered into her car, plopping her bag into the passenger seat to the left, and unzipping it. The cats spilled out of it like a wave, and some, Grell and Alois, fell off of the seat and hit there heads on the bottom of the car underneath them.

"I hate this metal contraption," Alois grumbled, jumping back up to Claude. 

"Well, you wouldn't be in it if you guys stayed at home," (your name) reminded them as she started the ignition, and the car roared into life. The cats next to her stumbled a bit as the car started to move, towards the direction of home.

As soon as they arrived into the living room, they saw an unfamiliar face sitting on the sofa: another cat. He was grey with a perculiar patch of slightly linger, blond fur on his head. He had the same chartreuse coloured eyes as Grell did.

"Ronald!" Grell kept up to him, hugging him the best a cat can.

"Grell!" Ronald gasped, Grell had his paws placed around his neck Ansbach didn't realise he was strangling him. "Senpai, I c-can't breathe!"

"Senpai?" Ciel muttered, confused, as Grell released Ronald hastily.

"I'm guessing you're Ronald Knox?" (your name) asked, looking at his eyes, which were a shade only Grim Reapers could possess.

"Yes indeed, Miss, do I know you? Am I meant to kill you?" Ronald titled his head to the side in confusion.

"I don't know anything about me dying, but I'm sure the others can explain it better than I can," (your name) said, casting a look at Grell. He jumped at the opportunity and explained dramatically how he was captured and turned into a cat, and explained extra carefully to Ronald that they might be in a completely different dimension altogether.

"A different dimension?" Ronald asked. "Cool."

"Are you not even surprised?" Ciel asked, slightly shocked at how laid back and easily he was taking it.

"Well, to tell you the truth, I did have a look around and most of the things in this place I've never seen before, both alive and dead," he yawned and stretched.

"What shall we do now, Miss (your name)?" Sebastian asked, turning towards her.

"Well, I think we should gather what evidence we have and try to find out why and who did this to you," she responded, not even bothering to reprimand Sebastian for call her 'Miss'.

"Well, what are we waiting for? Get a move on!" Alois commanded, sticking his tongue out to show his contract mark.
