The world of Black Butler / Kuroshitsuji

Blood Red Jack the Ripper

When me, Ciel and Sebastian arrived at the town house, we went straight to Ciel's office to discuss the matter of Jack the Ripper. We sat down and Sebastian brought us some tea.

"Sebastian can anyone else in this house hear what we say here?" I asked.

"No, milady, no one is listening to us."

"Good, I don't want anyone, not even people in this house, to know what we are going to talk about right now."

"Why can't Lau and Madam Red know?" Ciel asked.

"You'll see why." I answered. "As I was saying before, I think that one of the criteria we based the investigation on is wrong. Remember how we said the suspect should have no alibi, I don't think it applies to Jack the Ripper in this case."

"That is the basic criteria that applies to all of the cases I've worked on before. It is impossible that it is wrong." Ciel said.

"I didn't think you would believe me any way, so in order for you to believe me, I have to tell you something."

"What is it?"

I took a breathe and said, "I know about know about demons and stuff like that." I said. Ciel looked at me with a surprised expression, and glanced over at Sebastian. "And, yes. I do know that Sebastian is a demon in contract with you."

Ciel stood up abruptly, knocking his chair over, "Who are you? Why do you know about the contract?"

"Calm down! I am not your enemy! Please will you just sit down and let me explain!?"

Sebastian picked the chair up and Ciel sat back down on it, looking at me distrustfully. I hate it when people look at me like that. All I was doing was trying to help him, why does he have to look at me that way!?

I felt annoyance stirred up in me, but I suppressed it, "Okay, first of all, I'm not from this world."

"Ha, not from this world? What proof do you have?"

"I have been told by a Death God that I have no soul. Sebastian, you should be able to tell."

Sebastian nodded, "That explain why I sense that you are different. You are human, but it feels almost as if you are soulless. I wasn't too sure because I have never sensed something like this before. Turned out I was correct."

"And I'm not dead, am I?"

"You are very much alive." Sebastian answered.

"See, Ciel, no one from this world can be soulless and alive."

"And how do you explain why you know about demons and me being contracted to one?"

"In my world there is a thing called anime, one of them..... made me able to tell." I totally wasn't going to tell them that I knew all about them and what was going to happen to them. It would be no fun!

"So you are saying that this 'anime' thing can tell the difference between demon and human." Ciel asked.

"Something like that." I mean, its half true, I was able to tell because of the anime.

"And you are expecting me to believe a story as unbelievable as that?" Ciel said.

"Well, believe it or not, I am telling the truth." Making Ciel believe was so much harder than make Undertaker believe. "Sebastian, what do you think?"

"The story was very hard to believe. However, somehow I don't sense lies in it." Sebastian said.

"See Ciel, even your demon butler thinks that I'm telling the truth. I don't know how or why I got here in this world. That's all I can say."
