Black Butler: Dangling From The Web

~Deep In The Case~

"remember you have a fiance... " he grins but does wonder why there's a kid here too.

The master ignores Sebastian and runs after the girl "HEY! YOU WAIT!"

Seb chases after his master...."young master!...."

Ciel just keeps running and stops when he's far enough from the crime...he looks around for the girl.

"honestly my lord... over a child...."

Ciel ignores Sebastian and hears someone behind them he turns around and sees her there.

Shes takes a crochet needle and crochets... She smiles and giggles "hello there. I felt someone behind me so I decided to play chase me game. You have me now, caught like a butterfly!.... What are you going to do now........"

He glares "how did you get into the crime scene?!,and why did you look at me the way you did"

"Crime scene?... what do you mean? I was just playing with this... " holds up something that looks like evidence..."... its pretty, Its mine now.. I think ill burn it."

"WAIT A MINUTE!" Ciel reaches for it.

She pulls it away "mine mine mine! You can't have it...." She smiles more and starts to skip away.... Seb stands in her way... "excuse me my lady.. but that piece is very important to our game....." her eyes sparkle "what kind of game....."

"Thats not of your business! now hand it over!" growls a bit and glares as he stepped closer to her.

Seb stops his master "my lord..your manners.. afterall this is a young lady and you are an earl.... please, it would mean a lot to us to have it...." He kneels in front of her, then woman screams about her missing son...distracting the two...enough for the girl to disappear.. Seb sighs and stands up "she should be careful... my lord?are you alright?"

Ciel growls angry "I'm fine, let's just go... We have a case to attend to..." He walked off back to the crime scene to the screaming woman.

The woman was crying as she looks at ciel and hugs him close "my boy!.. this is my son!...." she holds him tight as ciel is struggling, Sebastian tries to grab ciel but the police hold him away. Maybe this woman, she's the key to all this.. if ciel plays the part...he could get a closer look "master!" The guards block him as the woman drags Ciel to a carriage.

He looks back and nods at Sebastian cleverly...taking after a plan to go deep in this case.

Seb stays behind as ciel gets shoved into the carriage. Someone from inside holds him down and puts a cloth over his mouth and he passes out as for the butler the guards hold him for questioning.

Ciel wakes up a few hours later in a bed... he was wearing a nightshirt and holding a toy bear with him. A woman in a rocking chair smils at him "my son.. your awake!... are you hungry?"

He looks at her...'hmm...she must be the one responsible for the kidnappings...well that make sense, maybe she lost her child by death and made herself believe she lost the child out somewhere but alive...so she takes peoples children to make herself feel like she's found her child...' he thinks quietly.

"what's wrong?... I made your favorite.... Giles, what's wrong with my son?.." She asks. Giles?,... a stronger looking man comes into the light, he looked as if he was her husband.

"i don't know my love.. he's probably still scared. He was missing for so long he doesn't know how to act around us..." The comment was a threat... in order to stay alive..... Ciel has to play the part..what happened to the other children that were taken?... "hello son... I'm sure you are starving... we made pot pie... your favorite...."

He looks at them and fakes a smile "I am rather hungry...may you please..." he needs more information and what happened to make sure that his thoughts were correct.

The woman smiles and helps feed Ciel as she thought of him as her son, Giles stays by the door. Ciel looks around, the windows were boarded up and pictures of a small young child had its face scratched away.... "Emma, don't over feed him..." The husband laughed, seeing his wife this happy was all he wanted...Emma just fed kept feeding him "don't listen to him Drew, I'm just happy to have you back...." She smiles " i baked you a cake too...finish the pie, ill bring it.... I'm so happy your home...." She smiles and leaves to get the pie.. leaving Ciel alone with Giles.

Ciel looked at Giles and his eyes later trailed back to the pictures.

...why was the face scratched?

...what happened to the child?...

"let me help you...." Giles sits by Ciel and starts to whistle a tune.... "You remember this tune? It makes your mother so happy if you whistle it for her.... we searched for you for months.... I went alone.. but she insisted and her first look, found you...."

"So he's the true kidnapper...he did this? all for her?.... for his...wife?...but the others?... where are they?...'
