Oh I love you guys for reviewing! You people are awesome! But anyways...I will have Kanda appear...don’t know how yet though…^. ^;
Anyway…yes it was Grell who ended our last chapter.
There will be no pairings (as of now..who know later~) and hmm yeah, Kanda's going to appear.

Red, sweeping hair, gorgeous golden eyes, and a chainsaw fit for a Death God. Grell Sutcliffe could not figure out for the life of him why Sebastian wouldn’t love him. A sigh parted his beautiful lips as he placed a hand on his cheek, scanning the bustling city below him.

“But that’s part of the fun, isn’t it, Seba-chan?” He grinned to himself, his rows of jagged white teeth gleaming as he caught sight of the ever-faithful butler with his master. “Now where are you two heading off?” He wondered, following them amongst rows and rows of rooftops.

He paused when his lover (currently unaware of that title, mind you) and the human grouped with others. Others containing his own dear Madam Red. Grell’s grin grew wider. “Ah, she’s here too? Hm, well I’ll kill her later for the Jack the Ripper thing.” He noted to himself, still not having forgiven the woman for backing out the last minute. He scanned the rest of the crowd, extremely interested in the other two redheads, especially the tall one with the long hair…

Grell’s...observations were cut short, though, when the white haired boy (not as attractive as the others, he noticed) started to turn towards the Earl and his Sebastian. The grip on his chainsaw tightened when he noticed he looked ready to attack, but relaxed when he didn’t. It seemed that that Lau and the Madame knew the mysterious being dressed in black. Grell ‘hmphed’ quietly, still watching from the tree he was hiding in.

Then he felt the spine-tingling sensation (and not in the good way that he wanted…) and Grell shifted into his somewhat serious mode. He saw them as the white-haired boy detected them and he was more than ready to fight, but watched silently from the sidelines for a few moments until….

The boy knocked down Sebastian. His Seba-chan. The boy touched him.

With no second thoughts, he flung himself from the tree, aiming straight for the Demon Butler himself, yelling, “Seba-chan!”

The butler reacted accordingly surprisingly fast, ducking out of the red-headed Shinigami’s way before impact. Grell looked up, sniffling. “You didn’t have to be so mean to me, Seba-chan.” Though his supposed ‘disarming smile’ said otherwise.

Sebastian merely arched an eyebrow, though it was clear that he was deeply disturbed. In a split instant, though, his facial expression changed; into one full of concern. One of the creatures had made its way past them and was now heading for the Earl. Grell took this moment to act, his chainsaw roaring to life as he sprinted in front of the Demon Butler, taking off from the ground, bringing his weapon to cut the creature in half.

Behind him, Grell heard the boy shout, but promptly ignored him. He caught some of what he said though. Some nonsense about ‘souls being lost’. Grell laughed at that as he landed on the ground, the creature’s movie playing in front of him. He frowned slightly when he realized that movie was explaining a lot more than he expected.

“Lose the soul?” Grell smiled sweetly, turning to the white haired boy after watching the movie. The other creatures were gone. “Darling, I’m a Shinigami, we don’t lose souls.” He said matter-of-factly.

The boy faltered, frowning as his sword turned into his arm once again. “Shinigami?”

Grell inspected the boy over his glasses. There was something oddly familiar about him. “Death God. Now, what did you say your name was?”

“I didn’t. It’s Allen Walker.”

The parlor was more crowded than usual. Ciel wasn’t used to having such odd guests over. Besides his Aunt and Lau (neither of whom he could ever shake off) there was that annoying Grell Sutcliff fawning over Sebastian and then Cross, who was keeping too close to Madam Red. There was also Bookman and Lavi, who seemed to have started a conversation with the Opium dealer. Only the white-haired boy (Allen, Ciel corrected mentally) seemed to keep to himself, staring at Sebastian, his cursed eye (as Cross had so bluntly explained) still whirring in reaction to the Demon Butler.

“Ahem.” Ciel cleared his throat, folding his hands over his lap as the room finally dulled down to talking level. “Why are all of you here again?” He asked, the room silent save for Sebastian pouring tea. “Not you, Madame or you, Lau, you’ve been cleared. I’m talking about the others.” He looked at the ‘Exorcists’ pointedly, and then at Grell. “You too, Sutcliff.”

“I’m here for my day with Seba-chan!” The redhead Shinigami pouted, sniffling. “Or did you forget our deal, Earl?”

Ciel chose to ignore that. “I can’t quite say that I believe the whole thing about Innocence and all.” He heard Sebastian smirk audibly. The Butler knew something he didn’t.

“Of course you wouldn’t you simple minded Earl.” Cross snorted. “But we’re on a mission and your…erm…cooperation? Yeah, that’d be nice. Maybe we could kill two birds with one stone, seeing as you’ve a mission from Her Majesty.”

There was only one person who could have told him that. Ciel decided to sort the matter out later. “I’ll consider it.” He said simply.

“Wait.” Lavi frowned, fixing his one jade eye on Ciel. “Earl of Phantomhive…ah! Now I remember! You guys are supposed to be the Queen’s Dog or something like that. It’s been in your family line for generations!” He snapped his fingers. “Jiji said-”

What Jiji said no one would actually know, because Bookman delivered a rather painful looking blow to Lavi’s head. The redhead winced, grumbling under his breath.

“Sebastian. Prepare them rooms. It seems that we have more partners for this particular task.” Ciel sighed, rubbing the temples of his head.

Sometimes these things weren’t worth it.

After everyone had settled in and the Exorcists decided to look around the town some more, Ciel had retired to his study. Grell had left, following the Exorcists. Ciel had noticed his mood and M.O had changed slightly after finding out about the Walker boy. No matter, as long as the Shinigami didn’t annoy him. Madame Red had dragged Lau to go shopping and Ciel almost felt sorry for the man. Almost.

There was a large crash outside his door and a flurry of voices that caused the young boy to wince. Lavi had decided to stay behind after talking it over with Bookman, and unfortunately enough, the one-eyed redhead became fast friends with Prince Soma and Agni. Ciel didn’t know if he could last that long and as a result, his concentration was slowly slipping.

“Is something the matter, Young Master?” Sebastian asked, all to knowing. He smiled as the Earl glared at him, ducking to avoid the pen he had chucked at him in anger.

“You know something about this Millennium Earl of theirs.” Ciel accused. “What is going on?”

Sebastian returned the pen to Ciel’s desk, his blood-red eyes looking slightly more demonic than usual. “Exactly like they said. The Earl and I used to talk some, what with me being a Demon and all. He has very interesting plans, might I say. Haven’t talked to him in a while.” He chuckled at Ciel’s expression.

“And the boy, Allen?”

“I don’t know. His eye is rather odd, though.” He smirked as Ciel brushed over his eye patch. “Do you want anything else, Young Master?”

Another crash. “Go do something about them.”

“Yes, my Lord.”

Xx

“He’s still following us.” Allen grumbled to his Master. The Shinigami was starting to creep him out for more than one reason.

“And? Long as he doesn’t try and act gay around us, I’m fine with it. Besides, it seems he has a thing for that Sebastian guy.” Cross replied.

Allen raised a hand to his cursed eye at the mention of the butler. There was something wrong about him. His eye could only detect Akuma, but it had reacted to the butler. And he knew that Sebastian wasn’t an Akuma. Or at least, he hoped not.

“Idiot apprentice. Bookman and I have to go investigate something.” Cross said, blowing out a cloud of smoke. “Don’t get killed.” And with that, he and Bookman disappeared into the crowd, leaving Allen to his lonesome. Well, sort of. Grell was still tailing him. Allen stood in place for a second and then bolted, avoiding the people he would have knocked down.

Enough was enough with being followed. He hated the feeling. A quick glance showed that Grell was keeping pace with him, and it looked like the Shinigami was enjoying it. Allen picked up the pace and stopped abruptly. His eye was whirring like crazy. He was surrounded and the Akuma began to morph, circling him. Allen activated the Crown Clown, taking a fighting stance. Level 3s. He was going to have to fight hard.

Or maybe, not at all.

“Kaichu: Ichigen!”

Allen gasped. “What are you doing here?”

Kanda sliced through another Akuma, glaring at Allen. “Does it matter, baka moyashi?” He growled, blocking an attack. “Well?” He barked. “What are you doing, just standing there?”

That snapped Allen back to his senses and he and Kanda took care of the Akuma easily, breathing heavily. “So, what are you doing here?” Allen tired again, reverting his arm back as Kanda sheathed a somewhat bloody Mugen in its scabbard.

“What a stupid question. I’m here the same reason you are.” He scoffed. “Still stupid, I see. Where’s Usagi?”

Allen didn’t have time to answer as something red flung itself at Kanda. Grell was babbling about how scary Kanda was and a lot of other things that Allen found himself twitching in response to. Kanda kicked Grell off, looking more than ready to kill.

“Who are you?” Kanda snarled, holding the tip of Mugen to Grell’s throat, which made the Shinigami squeal in pure delight.

“I’ll explain later.” Allen sighed. “Just don’t kill him. He’s a Shinigami.” Allen explained. “Let’s go.”

“Don’t order me around.” Kanda snapped.

“Don’t be so hasty and stupid.” He countered.

“What did you say?”

“You heard me, Ba-kanda.”

And that was pretty much how it sounded like the whole way back to Ciel’s place.
