The Night of the Ball
You got back to the mansion after you went out and found. Ciel and Sebastian pulled up to the doors in a carriage. Sebastian opened the carriage door to help you in. You smiled and politely shut the door. "I'll ride up front with you." Sebastian gave you a confused look but pushed the matter no further when you proceeded to climb up into the seat. Sebastian sat next to you and the carriage started moving. "You look lovely, by the way, lady (F/n)." He said, staring straight ahead. You snorted. "Gee, thanks. I thought that it was perfect for trying to catch a killer." His expression didn't change. You both sat in an awkward silence for a few minutes until Sebastian spoke up. "Do you know who we're looking for?" You shook your head. "We're looking for a man named Aleister Chamber. Otherwise known as the Viscount of Druitt. He is accused of capturing young women like yourself." He continued. You whined, "Does this mean that I'm the bait?" He gave you a sideways glance. "Yes." You slumped down in the wooden seat. "Great."
You arrived at the ball shortly after your conversation. You looked around at the giant mansion sitting in front of you. Sebastian helped Ciel out of the carriage and you finally saw what he was wearing. You started laughing. "What are you wearing, Ci-" he covered your mouth. "My name is Yuki for the time being. You're my cousin and Sebastian is our dance instructor. Got it?" You saluted him. "Yes sir." He glared at you but quickly put on a fake smile. He changed his voice to sound like a girl. "Come on, (F/n)! Let's go dance!"
After a few dances, Sebastian alternating between you and him, Ciel was exhausted. "There he is!" He whispered, nodding towards a blonde man in a crisp white suit. "What do you want me to do?" You asked. "You can-" Someone gasped. "That girl has the prettiest dress I've ever seen!!" You heard someone shriek. "Lizzy?!" You loudly whispered. Sebastian stood in front of you both and Ciel whispered to you, "Get him alone and get him to admit that he did it! here," He put something in your hand. "It's a microphone. Hide it somewhere on you and get him to say it!" Sebastian grabbed his hand. "On my word, hide in the crowd." Sebastian ordered. "Now." He whispered. You hurrying off into the crowd. You kept going until you hit the edge of the crowd. You looked back to make sure that Lizzie wasn't following you when you bumped into someone. You fell to the floor and held your head. "Ouch..." Your eyes widened and you looked up. "I-I'm sorry! I wasn't looking where I was going!" The man turned around. Your eyes grew even wider. "Th-The Viscount of Druitt! I-I'm so sor-" He held a hand out to you. "It is alright, butterfly. I was not injured." He helped you up and looked at your dress. "Ah. Your beautiful dress!" You were confused until you looked down. The glass in his hand had spilled on your dress. There was a giant purple stain on your dress. "I-It's okay! I'll just-" You started to walk off but he grabbed your hand. "Please, allow me to help you." He said, pulling you away from the party. He led you to a small, dark room and shut the door. "I-It's really not necessary, Viscount!" you said. The room smelled sweet. He smiled. "Please," You felt your strength leaving your body. "call me Aleister." You slid down the wall. "You...poisoned....the....a-air......" Your eyes slipped shut and your body slumped over. Aleister smirked. "I shall put a needle through my beautiful butterfly and she shall be part of my collection."
