        Of course it was Sebastian. I didn't know how he had taken care of the body that quickly but it didn't matter to me, I didn't care what he did with him.

        "I had something to speak with you about, m'lord," I sat down in the seat across from Ciel as he motioned to it.

        "Yes, I believe you mentioned something about a clue as to where you came from?" Sebastian stood at Ciel's side.

        "Yes, that's right. I finished cleaning the library and wanted to do some reading. There was a book about nobles but a lot of the words were worn out, I couldn't really read much of it. There was a picture in it though, that I could see. It... It was of my necklace," I held the necklace I was wearing up, "It was there, it looked just like this! I don't know what that could mean though..."

        Ciel sat forward in his seat, suddenly more invested in the conversation, even Sebastian seemed to have his eyes glued on me.

        "My, so you're saying that if we can find out which family this necklace came from, it could lead us to your past?" Sebastian read between the lines.

        "Interesting indeed, unless it was stolen, but the odds of that are unlikely. It looks very expensive and I doubt it would be given away or taken lightly," Ciel started, "Sadly I have never seen it before but I'm sure we could find a place where-" Ciel was cut off by a figure in red running through the window. I gasped, startled and stood from my seat, ready to fight if needed.

        "OH, BASSY~!" It jumped up, trying to grab onto Sebastian, who just stuck out his hand and shoved the person away, "Oh, c'mon now, is that anyway to treat a lady?" 

        Lady? I titled my head. 

        "You know her, my lord?" I asked, still confused.

        "Sadly, yes. What do you want Grell? We are trying to discuss something important," Sebastian rubbed the bridge of his nose, like the presence of this person annoyed him.

        "I was just in the area to harvest some souls and couldn't resist stopping by to see my love~!" I arched my brow, not quite following. Both Sebastian and Ciel snapped their heads towards me, as if to see how I reacted to this.

        Souls? Is he a demon like Alastair? Why are they looking at me like that? Do they know demons exist and don't want me to know?

        "Are you a demon, perhaps? Why would you need souls?" I tried to learn more on the situation.

        "Don't be so rude! I'm a deadly efficient reaper!" She pulled out... scissors? 

        "I see, well it's a pleasure to meet you Grell. You must mean a grim reaper? I had no idea they existed, next thing I find out will be that Sebastian is a demon" I laughed, scratching the back of my head awkwardly.

        "Why aren't you just the nicest! I guess the earl hasn't told you about Bassy~ Oooo, and your eyes are such a gorgeous shade of red, oh my~!" She seemed to fawn over my eyes.

        "If that will be all Grell," Ciel started but was interrupted again. 

        "Hold on just a moment. You look familiar dear," Grell leaned closer to me, studying me, but I was still reeling from what she said about Sebastian.

        "So... Sebastian really is a demon, huh?" I placed my finger on my chin,"Well it makes sense! He's way too talented for a human," I giggled.
