The next day undertaker had to go back to his shop due to more clients showing up in need of his assistance. He said he could just stay with me but I said it was alright, I don't need to be in the way of his professional life. So he reluctantly left but told me to come to the shop if anything happens

I was currently in my room, I put my staff around my side and put my jacket over, I leave my phone by the window along with the solar charger with a sad smile, this was probably going to be the last time I would see this room. I felt a tear drip down my cheek but quickly wiped it away, if I was going to do this I needed to be at the top of my game

I knew what I had to do, and it scared me but it had to be done. I had to protect them, I had to repay them for everything they have done for me

I was planning on going to Haroldson co. ,I had to talk to him, I had to keep everyone safe, even if it meant dying. The thought brought a feeling of dread but I push it away and walk to the window and jump out while extending my wings and head to town. I knew that Sebastian would soon realise I was gone but brushed it off, I just had to get this over with, it was the afternoon so I spent my morning writing a series of letters to everyone. Ciel, Sebastian, Grell even the servants and of course undertaker. His one was a lot harder to write cause I kept crying but I did it. It hurt a lot but it had to be done, I would protect them no matter the cost and that was a promise

I land on a building and jump to the ground before walking to the warehouse, each step I took made me feel nauseous to no end. I wish there was more I could do but this is probably it, I saw a run down sign saying 'Haroldson co. ' and scowl. I make my way over and pushed the doors open, revealing workers who sat behind tables making random shit, I didn't care, I see a big office on the top floor and begin walking up the stairs

"Excuse me! You can't go up there!" I heard a women yell from behind me, I turn around and glare at her, making her shrink back

"Shut the hell up before I make you" I say through gritted teeth, she held a horrified expression as I turned around and continued on my journey, I see the office door and push the door open revealing Haroldson, he snaps his head up and smirks once he sees me. Two men stood beside him with blank looks on their faces. They were demons, I could tell, how the hell did he get the help of not one but two demons

"Ah Shelby, not who I expected, please, have a seat" He says, I just sit while looking at him in pure anger, god I could so just cut his head off right now

I was still on guard around those demons, they could kill me in a second without a second thought. His eyes held a certain look I couldn't recognize, it wasn't positive and it made me uneasy

"To what do I owe the pleasure?" He smiles vilely while intertwining his fingers with a sick smile

"You know damn well why I'm here, just tell me what needs to be done" I sigh, he simply chuckled before leaning back in his chair smoothly, I roll my eyes at him making him laugh

"I'm sorry to have to do this , I would have been delighted to be able to have a proper chat with you but time is of the essence. Though I thank you for making it a bit easier for me. Silas, if you would do the honours" He smiles, I quickly get up from the seat but it's too late. A sharp pain shot through my back and stomach, my eyes widen in realisation and I look down to notice my abdomen had been impaled with a sword. I saw how my blood stained the end and dripped to the floor, creating a puddle, I felt myself grow weak and my legs gave out from under me but the sword held me in place. I felt instant regret, I should have said something to everyone in person, I stood helplessly as Haroldson chuckles to himself, images of all my friends came to mind, their smiles, their voices, but the one who stood out most to me was undertaker. I would never see his smile nor hear his beautiful laugh or look him in the eyes again
