The case, to London

"Jack the Ripper." I purred as I read the letter; My dearest (y/n),
I write to you with another upsetting case. There has been multiple accounts of murder in London. He has been called Jack the Ripper, it is a rather peculiar nickname but perfectly suited to his style of death. It is most unfortunate and I would like you to work on this case as well as the detectives from Scotland Yard and my GuardDog, the Earl Ciel Phantomhive. It is my wish that you will work in a team with Lord Phantomhive so you may stop anymore of these dreadful happenings sooner. He has been notified of the details and has acquired a significant amount of evidence so far. And do try to be nice and go easy on the poor boy, he has led a tough and rather odd life so far.
My best wishes,
Queen Victoria
I swept a stray, (h/c) hair behind my ear and smoothed down the rest of the shoulder length hair as I stood. My (e/c) eyes glistened, "Well now, it looks as if I'm going to London."
Ciel's POV

"Young Lord?" Smiled the raven haired Demon butler with the crimson eyes.
"What?" Mumbled the bored, dark haired, 12 year old boy with the lapis left eye and eyepatched other.
"Her Majesty The Queen has sent you a letter, it appears." The butler replied, handing it over. The boy Earl opened it and read:
To my Guard dog,
There has been a series of murders, most disturbing. The killer has been nicknamed Jack the Ripper by the press and I request you work with my Black Cat to solve this case. No need for you to travel though as i have already sent her to your lovely Estate. I hope you get along and stop these awful happenings before long. Oh, I must warn you, Lord Phantomhive, my Cat is rather outgoing and I dare say she can, I have found, be a touch arrogant at times.
Sincerely,
Queen Victoria.

Your POV
I arrived at London after a few days journey. I had transformed into a beautiful black cat with sunset orange eyes and a dark grey pentagram between them. (it was hardly noticeable and was a symbol of my Kuro Neko powers.) when I had turned, a noble woman and child welcomed me into their carriage and a young girl fussed over me.

"she's simply adorable, isn't she Aunt Red?" the blonde haired girl cried in a rather annoying high pitched voice, large, emerald eyes glimmering.

"yes, I suppose it is cute. although, I have never had much regard for animals. neaten your dress, now, my Lady Elizabeth, we are nearly there! Grell, hurry it up will you?!" the red haired woman replied. a muffled, "yes, my lady!" could be heard coming from just infront of the carriage. he sounded just a touch nervous I thought.
We arrived and the girl -Elizabeth?- ran at the speed of light into the mansion screaming, "CIEEEEEEEELLLLLLLL!!!!!" And then giggling loudly. The red haired lady and the nervous person walked at a steady pace into towards it, completely calm (the butler, I think he was, was if not seemingly terrified and looked ashamed might be the right word to describe how he stared at the floor and dropped his shoulders.)
Oh, great. They're coming here too. That makes this SO much more complicated. I thought to myself -I would have to walk up the dirt path for a while before turning human again and walking back.

I arrived at the mansion and politely, knocked upon the large door, before barging in this time.
Flashback
I was in Florida, solving my latest case and I had just been to visit my American source, Samantha about places to receive info on the current mission. "You have to be nice (y/n), or else he probably won't tell you anything." She told me, sorting out her files.
"Whatever do you mean, Sammy? I'm always nice!"
"My Lady, I beg to differ on that one."
"Well that's not fair! I behave most of the time! Practically all the time! How many occasions can you name that I haven't?"She gave me one of those looks that said, 'do you really want me to answer that?' "Fine. I'll be good. If I'm not, I will obey you for 2 weeks."
***Timeskip to visiting the info supply***
I stomped into the mans house and demanded information off him and when he refused, I..well...I might of threatened him with my knife.
Let's just say; it was a painful 2 weeks.
Flashback end

I stalked around the bottom floor of the mansion -black tail tucked and curled under my skirt and ears covered by a large headband- scanning the rooms with my (e/c) eyes until I had checked everywhere on the ground floor and I shouted, "Phantomhive! Where are you?!"
