Crimson Mistress of Reapers

My Fair Lady

Despite what Abberline and Ciel believed when the ring sank into the river, Grelle had a feeling it wouldn't vanish that easily. As she thought, news from head quarters was that there was trouble again up at an abandoned castle and Grelle had to take care of it. But this time, she had to bring an underclassman for part of his training.

And once again, she had to encounter Ciel.

"Fancy meeting you here Phantomhive. I can assume you're here about the missing girls too, am I right?"

"Sutcliff. Is Lizzie...?"

"No Miss Elizabeth isn't dead. Not yet at least, but she is in danger if you want to know." Grelle said as she and her trainee came down. "Oh, and this is my underclassman; Johnathan Blackstav. He's going to be in the field with me for a while, so you'll see him every now and then." Grelle said gesturing to a man with chartreuse eyes, round glasses and a wavy mop of short black hair.

"So you're the famous Phantomhive Earl. Like Senior Sutcliff said, I'm going to be under her wing for a while." John said cheeringly. Then he saw Pluto, who was with Ciel. "Hey wait, is that a demon hound?!"

"Yes, that it is John." Grelle confirmed.

Then Pluto suddenly went into the house, finding a doll. One that looked like Lizzy. 

The group went through another door that led to a mansion in the woods, which was beyond Grelle.

----------

Grelle instructed John to stay with Pluto, for this mission would be more dangerous than usual while she assisted Ciel. They also found that there were dolls walking around, which looked like the missing girls.

"Wait a minute. This was one of the missing girls. But something was done to her. She's been made into an actual doll." Grelle said inspecting the fallen doll she took down.

"What?" Ciel said.

"How disappointing." A new voice popped as a pair of doors opened up.

"What a useless doll. She was an utter failure. Then I thought to myself; 'I have to make them stronger than this.'" 

Then another 'doll' came and tried to attack only for Grell to intervene with a fire spell, burning it to cinders.

Then the two ran to find the strange man singing 'My Fair Lady'.

"Ciel Phantomhive. And Grelle Sutcliff. You two really are indeed unique specimens. What kind of dolls could I make out of you two. Clay would wash away, and iron is too low-class. Especially for you Sutcliff, for whom you used to be."

Ciel looked a little confused at that, but shook his head as he and Grelle continued on, and although they lost that strange man, they found Sebastian.

-------------------------

After the run in with 'Drossel' and Sebastian taking down the 'dolls', they had to get out of the mansion. 

"Well, now things make sense. Remember how Abberline said he was investagating the missing girls? Well, the boys back at headquarters found an interesting piece of info. Prior to their deaths, the girls were all in possession of a 'Hope Piece', making them pre-selected targets if you may." Grelle told the two. "Ciel was probably already targeted for a while."

While Sebastian and Ciel were talking about his safety and his life, Grelle discreetly looked at her father's map and found Lizzie was in the tower.

And she found John and Pluto were at the door of the place.

"John, i think you and Pluto found where Miss Elizabeth is." Grelle said as she approached the two. 

In the background, Sebastian seemed to be glaring at the new reaper recruit. 

-----------------

In the process of retriving Lizzy, Grelle and John were able to cut off the strings on her while Sebastian dealt with Drossel.

"Good news, she's alright. She'll live, Phantomhive." John said as he checked on the young girl, easing the young Earl's worries.

"Although, i'm remembering who this guy was." Grelle said gaining the attention of the others. "His name was Drossel Kines. The odd thing is that his soul was collected 5 years ago when he died in an accident, but lately headquarters detected signs of his existance which confused us. Even William was puzzled. Though, he won't be happy when I tell him why." 

----Fastforword-----

After the fiasco settled, Grelle turned to leave with John, when Sebastian spoke up. 

"Miss Sutcliff. I expect to see you soon. Especially since this may not be the last we see of that man."

"...I suppose you're right. And if worse comes to worse, I'll need to talk William into an alliance of sorts. But the question is if he'll do it." Grelle said before departing with John.
