This story will be told in both third person and first person, since I tend to get writers block and switching helps. I warn in advance that the characters might be a little OOC; I've just recently stared reading the manga and the story will be a mix between anime and manga

I do not own Black Butler.


It was a warm nigh; the sky was full of bright, twinkling stars, and a perfectly full moon. According to the moon light, which lit up the area in its dull glow, it was around eleven thirty. Not many humans would be awake during this time and those that were are normally indoors. That made it easier for me to sneak around without being seen. However I have taught myself to say out of sight for the occasional night person so it really didn't matter either way to me. All that really mattered to me was to stay out of sight and surviving to live another day.

For the past two years I have traveled across the globe, never staying anywhere longer than I need to. Recently I've been living in London, in an abandon warehouse near the harbor. There are plenty of creates to hide in, all of which probably held fish at one time, and is isolated enough to my liking. Being near the harbor also makes it easy for me to fish for food. However, when I am unable to catch my food I am left with no choice but to steal it. I do not like people so I refuse to beg for food or apply for a job to earn money for food. Besides, who would even want to hire someone like me?

It was now nearing three months since my arrival in London and I was preparing to leave soon. My thievery has gotten attention from the city and, even though no one has seen my face yet, I know people will start looking for me. It's easy enough to avoid attracting attention towards who I really was, since I always wore my cloak. However, just because I know how to stay hidden, that doesn't mean I am a reckless idiot. That was why, tonight, I am hunting for food outside the city rather than inside it.

My stomach growls hungrily at the thought of food as I finally neared my destination. I had been walking for what felt a few hours and my feet were numb from the coolness of the grass I had walked. Flexing my toes I jumped into the nearest tree and climbed until I had a better few of my target. The wood against my feet scraped and poked into my skin but, far used to the feeling, it was easy to ignore. Instead I focused my attention on the building that was my target.

The large mansion was dark; causing me to believe everyone inside was asleep. I haven't bothered to learn who lived here but I honestly couldn't care less. All I really care about is snatching myself some food from the garden; I doubt the owner would notice a couple messily missing carrots and tomatoes. Anyways, even if someone was awake, it wasn't like they'd be able to stop me; no one has been able to do so yet.

'Well, I might as well get this over with; it will be a long walk home.' I think to myself, smiling as my long, black tail swishes behind me. Hearing myself start to purr I jumped from the tree branch, land with ease on my feet and venture to where I could smell the fresh growing vegetables.

Sebastian's P.O.V

I push my hand through my dark hair as I walk down one of the many darkened hall of the Phantomhive mansion. The new servants my young master had me recruit were more trouble than they were worth. Mey-Rin had broken yet another tea set, Finnian use too much weed killer around one of my master's favorite rose bushes and Baldroy blew up the kitchen; again. If it wasn't for the fact the three were hired to protect my young master and the mansion from danger they'd be long fired. Perhaps I'd even kill them if I was given permission to.

Mey-Rin was absolutely horrid as a maid. She messed up the simplest of things and is extremely clumsy. In the past few months she has been here that woman has broken nearly four dozen plates, five tea sets and two dozen glasses. No matter how much I tell her not to run in the mansion she is always doing so. Though she blames most of her problems on being farsighted I believe it is her intelligence that gets her in trouble. However, while an absolutely horrid maid, she is acceptable sniper and the true reason she is here.

Baldroy couldn't even cook soup if it would save his life. Everything he attempts to make either ends up as charcoal or blown up. He was the one that insisted on becoming the cook because it took patients, something he apparently wasn't used to. However he continues to rush things and I am the one that usually cooks the young master's food. If it weren't for his battle skills I would have left him in the ditch I found him in.

There is nothing even close to nice that I can say about Finnian. He is even clumsier than Mey-Rin and destroys everything he touches. He has destroyed the gardens many times since his arrival at the Phantomhive mansion; causing me even more work than before he arrived. He is a dense idiot and he is only here because of his impressive inhuman strength. The only reason I tolerate him, as well as the others is because the young master orders me to and they use their own lives to protect his.

However, I suppose worrying about those three idiots could wait for another time. For now I have an intruder to take care of. I could sense a person pretty close to the mansion's vegetable garden. It's curious that I wasn't able to sense her until a moment ago or why someone was here so late but that's beside the point. According to my master's orders all intruders will either be captured or killed. Capturing the person will be easy but I'm afraid I'll have to wait until my master awakens before I find out if I can kill her or not.

No matter, an order is an order and I cannot disobey my young master. Besides I'm curious to who could have entered the property without my knowing. Hmm~ this could prove to be an entertaining night yet.


So this is my first Black Butler story :3 I just want to quickly say this isn't another Neko story. The OC, who's name will be revealed later, isn't a Neko. What she is will be revealed later as well. This takes place a few months before the series events
