Chapter 1

I own nothing, only my OC Yuki.

What if Madame Red was destined for something else, someone saved her. Someone new and someone who will help guide her along her new path which means aligning herself with a certain demonic butler, his ward and some other unusual characters... one of which is a certain reaper in disguise as the local undertaker.

As Grell's death scythe lowered hastily towards the unknowing Lady in Red's head a long black scythe shot down from the roof effectively stopping the chainsaw in its tracks barely saving the woman. Some of her red hair curled in the wind as it was sliced from the reapers roaring weapon.

"Now who was that?!" Grell shouted annoyed as he searched in vain for the offender.

"Sorry Grell but the Lady Dalles is not for you to hurt, and as you well know she isn't on the to-die list also." A light voice from above them all as he pinpointed the woman in question.

"Yuki?! what does it matter to you why are you here?" Grell shrieked as Yuki jumped elegantly from the roofs landing gracefully in front of the woman shivering on the floor shielding her from the other reaper while the demonic butler and young ward stood to the side all in a state of shock at her sudden appearance.

"Sorry Grell she is under my protection." She answered simply pulling her onyx scythe from the ground with ease twirling it to be shielding her should Grell attack.

Yuki was a slender woman standing at a measly 5 and a bit foot max. Her deep green coat was similar to Madame Reds only tight around the chest with gold ornate buttons decorating the breast while it flowed out at the hips to her knees at the front and shin at the back and had roses embroidered at the hems (wrist, base and collar) in detailed gold thread. The coat hid her simple black blouse, black trousers and any jewelry that may have hung from her neck. Her knee high boots concealed the bottom of her trousers and were buckled up with gold buckles and threadings. Her pale skin illuminated her almost gold hair which hung short just brushing her collar bones while she had odd braids dotted through her hair and ends of her hair a dark red which reflected like blood in the moonlight.

She of course had the double green iris and simple black glasses on the tip of her nose.

"What? Why?!" Grell exclaimed loudly, flailing his arms wildly in annoyance.

"She is being considered for a higher position, as you know I am in charge of protecting those with such .. qualities. So I am stating now Grell, leave and report back to Mr Spears I heard he was looking for you." She uttered with a light voice pointed at the red head who was puffing steam out his ears.

"No! She doesn't deserve to wear red!" Grell shouted with a pout.

"I will report you to your higher ups and defend her should you make an attempt on her life again." Yuki responded with concrete resolve.

"She will be prosecuted and put to death soon anyway once that brat throws her in the cells so with that in mind..." Grell shouted motioning to the ward of the demonic butler, before leaping at Yuki swinging his rearing scythe as she expertly swung hers in retaliation, clashing them together as sparks threw in every direction.

As Grell attempts to flip over her to get an advantage, the demon intervenes kicking the red reaper away from the Lady in red and the new reaper.

"I do believe I will step in here, would you kindly do me the honor my lady of standing back. It is unfitting of a gentleman such as myself to allow a young lady to fight such a disease ridden nuisance such as this creature." The demon stated to Yuki as she stood back in shock at his (A DEMON?!) assistance while Grell was currently trying to pick himself out the wall he was kicked into mid lunge.

"That is not necessary, however I do believe you were in the middle of a ... discussion before my arrival so should you wish to join in I shall assist you in protecting your ward as well as Lady Dalles if you should extend the same courtesy?" She replied dodging as a roaring chainsaw was launched in her direction abruptly as she moved to usher the Red shocked woman into the same area as the young boy.

"Now now it is rude to interrupt a lady!" The butler tutted towards Grell as she grabbed the long strands of the rogue reaper's hair and yanked back pulling him off balance as he made to attack the other reaper and the two under her protection. "Yes that sounds acceptable my lady. Now as for you..." The black butler turned to Grell as he acrobatically launched after his scythe as the two now battled above the city line each trying to gather the high ground.

"W-who are you? Why did you save me?" The Lady Dalles uttered her voice strengthening after the intitial shock of the attempted murder by her partner.

"Pardon me, I am Yuki Knox. From the Reaper society." Yuki responded smiling despite the stench of blood floating from the door mere meters away. "As to why I saved you, you have two paths in front of you, one that I can follow and help you with, the other is out of my control and sorely down to you your death is not part of either part at this time." Yuki continued as the woman before her exhaled a white mist as the chill and shock settled in.

"Reaper society?" The demon's ward piped up from next to the Lady in red.

"Yes." Yuki responded simply, unknowing of the child's place in this as he was not part of her care.

"Forgive me I am Ciel Phantomhive and this is my Aunt Madame Red as I'm sure you are aware and my Butler is Sebastian Michaelis." The boy - Ciel stated with a bow of which is common among nobility.

Yuki POV

"Pleasure to meet you Mr Phantomhive, it is a pleasure to meet you and your Aunt." I said courtesy best I could with my jacket making them both smile.

Ciel was a young boy about 12 at my best guess, with navy hair and common torn clothes and a bandaged eye.

"Lord Phantomhive but call me Ciel. What can you tell me of that reaper?" He asked pointing above to Grell who was flying in our direction making me leap grab the back of his jacket and fling him into the opposing wall.

"Sorry my Lord, I misjudged the distance." Sebastion landed next to us, bowing lightly to Ciel.

"I'm sure." Ciel replied curtly.

"Oh it seems that the fall did not kill you, maybe your wonderful tool here will do the damage." Sebastian said with a shit eating grin.

Lifting Grell's death scythe he effortlessly pulled a long strip of fabric aside and threw it to the side before activating the weapon before walking towards Grell. I couldn't let him kill a fellow reaper regardless of the misgivings between us.

"I'm afraid I can't let you destroy him no matter how ... desirable it may be. He is one of my fellow reapers and will have to step in for his protection." I said a little reluctantly and stood to protect my fallen comrade.

Surprise flitted over Sebastian's face along with Ciels.

"My dear savior Yuki! Knight in shining armor coming to save your damsel in distress!" Grell gushed behind me and sparkling - I could see them lighting up the alleyway.

I sweat dropped.

"I can't believe I'm saying this, but I have a duty to protect you not because I necessarily want to." I said pointedly with a sigh.

"Now a woman of your stature can surely understand the grief keeping that ... creature alive..." The demon stated smoothly with an alluring visage to draw in the faint hearted.

"I can see the benefit, however, I can't let you kill him. He is under our authority and that means he shall be disciplined as such to our laws, regulations and jurisdictions. Not by that of a demons." I said less than pleased at his attempt to bewitch me.

Tilting his head he looked saddened.

Before he leapt at me. He wielded Grell's weapon expertly, swinging it at my head while I ducked and swung my body around grasping his arm as I went pulling him off balance to keep him from Grell.

Following my momentum he swung the scythe at me once more as I dropped and fell to the floor twisting my body up as I rolled slightly so he missed impaling me by inches as I swung my scythe at his neck as he lowered to try and impale me.

We clashed together as he dodged my attack and I leapt away in a arch to give us more distance, running at me I stayed my ground as he pulled his arm back to drive it threw my ribcage I twirled my scythe and dug the handle into his open wound from Grells prior attack.

Grunting he withdrew enough for me to skid back along the floor under his arm and rolled on the balls of my feet and sprung up twisting to catch the scythe that was headed to my head. Kicking out I knocked his knees making them buckle for a split second, that was all I needed to retreat back a couple of feet.

"I don't wish to fight, I may be needing to work with you in the next coming weeks with Madame Red being my current assignment and I rather have no ill feelings towards one another." I said dodging another attack as he slowed slightly in thought.

"Sebastian." The simple word was a command from Ciel.

"Yes My Lord?" He responded with the bow only learnt with practice.

"Let her go, she isn't our problem at this point." Was an unexpected command.

"But what of the other reaper, surely you don't wish for me to let Jack the Ripper go?" Sebastian stated flabbergasted.

"Leave him for now, but no harm is to come to Yuki, if she will help Madame Red we will need it in the upcoming issues we are sure to have." Ciel ordered.

It was clear he had been mentally debating what to do with his Aunt.

"Yes my Lord." Sebastian conceded bowing before returning to his master.

"Well, that works. The less work the better for me, it means less overtime the better." A familiar voice said from the top of a nearby building. Looking up I saw William T. Spears, one of the most punctual and formal reapers ever to have joined the society. He stood at 6 ft with a slim form covered in the trademark black suit to retain the respect at someone's death and welcome the illusion of mourning.

"AHH WILL YOU CAME TO SAVE ME!" Grell shouted as once more sparkles flared. Until William jumped on his head crushing it into the pavement below.

With Will's sudden appearance I relaxed my stance now knowing that Ciel and Sebastian had no reason to be as hostile now an obvious member of the Reaper Society Management had arrived.

As Will read Grell's charges I swung my scythe making it more compact and slid it into one of my pockets.

"Miss Knox, I commend you for protecting a fellow reaper, even one such as this. I assume you are here on business?" Will addressed me while glancing at Madame Red and Ciel behind myself and Sebastian.

"Yes, my assignment is Miss Dalles behind me." I stated standing straight and bowed as he did me as a formal greeting - especially amongst one such a demon.

Nodding in understanding he turned to Sebastian.

"I thank you on behalf of the reaper society for helping to bring attention to Mr Sutcliff and his unsavory extra curricular activities as of late." He bowed to Sebastian who looked most amused.

"I recommend keeping a closer eye on your reapers if they find the time to be doing things such as this." Sebastian stated with that shit eating grin once more.

"I never thought the day would come where I would have to bow down to demon scum like you." Will stated under his breath before standing to his full height.

"Are you joining us back to the headquarters or are you staying to tie up loose ends?" Will asked as he grabbed the ends of Grell's hair preparing to drag him to the portal.

"Yes I will be here a little longer, thank you though." I replied with a smile.

"Goodnight Miss Knox." He said bowing and turning as he pulled Grell behind him effortlessly.

Sebastian threw the scythe at Will's head making myself gape at the fast reflexes shown as he caught the roaring weapons in between his index and middle fingers; the only disdain shown was the glare in Sebastian's direction.

"Thought you would like that too, would hate for you to forget it." Sebastion said with that grin, widening as he said it.

"Thank you." Will said shortly as he continued dropping the weapon onto Grell's stomach winding him as he did so.

They disappeared into the darkness encasing the end of the alley leaving the remaining people here in an awkward silence.
