The watch dog and lap cat

WARNING

There is a joke that might make a lot of people offended or hurt. Please do not take it to heart, I myself found the joke horrible and disgusting but I thought it would only make sense for this part. I apologize in advance to anyone who was insulted and but I couldn't find any other fitting joke. A apology from all my heart. 👷🏻I'll probably go to hell because of this stupid joke.

Sincerely,

ACACIA P.O.V.

The pen made a light scratchy noise as I finished signing the last document on the work desk.

"Good work, my lady. Would you like to have the cake and tea that you skipped now?"

My amethyst eyes landed on Ciar who enter my office.

"Yes please, that would be delightful," I smile at my butler as I organize the table carefully.

The browned haired man soon came back, in his gloved hand was a tray with my afternoon snack.

I eyed the strawberry sponge cake in delight and quickly prepared space on my desk.

Ciar chuckled at my behavior and elegantly placed the tray in front of me.

"Thank you Ciar, I do have to admit, your strawberry sponge cake is my absolute favorite," with a happy tone I complement the demon butler, eagerly taking the first bite of the dessert.

I hummed as the whip cream mixed with the slightly sour but sweet strawberry in my mouth.

The sponge was soft and sweet, the fragrant of vanilla beans spreads in my mouth.

I placed a hand on my cheek and smiled with my eyes closed.

My eyes opened once again when I head Ciar chuckle in amusement.

The male was easily pouring the tea into my China tea cup.

Placing my silver fork down, I gently brought the cup to my nose, taking in the fragrance.

"Rose tea, I assume," I state and take a small sip out of the cup.

Ciar smiled and placed the teapot back on the table and stood straight, "Correct once again, Mistress."

I hummed and looked at Ciar, "With this fragment, I believe you'll be able to make wonderful sweets..."

Gently placing the cup down, I grabbed paper and a pen, quickly scrambling onto it.

"Please take this to Mr. Sweit when you have time, he'll probably be delighted by my new idea...." I imagine the plump man who works for me. Recently not only have I been making new tea but opened up a sweets shop.

Neatly writing the words of rose sponge cake and cookies on the paper, I hand it to Ciar who took it and tucked it in his suit.

I take another bite of my cake and look at Ciar, "Have you gotten any information of Jack the Ripper?" I questioned as I chewed slowly.

The male in front of me gave me a closed eyed smile and placed a hand on his chests.

"Of course my lady, what kind of butler would I be if I did not?"

I chuckled slightly as I take another bite, "Well when will this murder strike next?"

"Tonight."

I nodded and swallowed my last bite before sipping my tea.

"Alright, we will stop them today... But before that, I would like to get some training, will you accompany me Ciar?" I questioned as I brushed my curled violet hair back.

The brown haired male smiled and bowed, "It would be my pleasure."

THIRD PERSON P.O.V.

The tall male's icy blue eyes followed the small female's movement as she jumped over his head, aiming the gun at him.

Multiple bullets echoed through the enclosed room as Acacia pulled the trigger of the gun, perfectly aiming at the butler below her.

"Tsk," she clicked her tongue in annoyance as she realized Ciar caught all six bullets with his bare hands.

Still soaring in air, Acacia noticed the smirk her butler was aiming at her.

As the violet haired female landed on the floor, her foot not making a single noise, she shot multiple bullets aiming at Ciar's head and chest.

Though without waiting to see what has happen to the bullets, she ran towards the butler, her katana sheathed.

The long distance combat quickly turned to a close combat as the small female fiercely strikes at the caramel haired male.

Ciar seemed to enjoy this battle, a smile was permanently stuck to his face as he dodge and avoided his mistresses attack.

The violet haired female's lips twitch upward slightly as the Katana nicked Ciar on his cheek drawing blood.

Both of them jumped back breathing slightly uneven.

Ciar chuckled as he wiped the blood that trickled down his cheek with the back of his hand. He then brought the crimson liquid to his lips, his tongue slowly licking it.

Acacia scrunched her nose slightly before cracking her neck while rolling her shoulders.

"Impressive my lady, it's been a while since you have landed a hit on me." Ciar smiled as he brought his hand back to the cut, though he frowned as he realized it had already healed.

The man pouted slightly but quickly stopped as he thought about the time.

Swiftly he pulled out a pocket watch looking at the time.

"My lady, it is currently 5:30, please go take a shower while I prepare for your meal."

Acacia nodded slowly, sheathing the katana in her hand with a click.

"I will get ready quickly, what time do we leave Ciar?" The violet haired female questioned as she wiped her sweat with a small hanker chief.

Ciar once again pulled out his pocket watch, a calculating look appearing in his eye.

He closed the vintage clock before smiling at his mistress who watched him carefully with her sharp eyes.

"I assume they will strike around around ten at night... Though it may be a wise idea if we gather a bit of information about our dear Earl..." Ciar smile an mischievous suddenly appearing on his face.

Acacia's eyes brightened significantly as she clapped her hands, "Brilliant idea my dear butler! I just know where to go!" The teen excitedly exclaimed as she scrambled up the elegant stairs.

Ciar watched his mistress disappear off in a hurry with a smile.

'It is indeed a while since we have visited him, I would love to have a nice chat with him again...' Ciar thought as he chuckled.

>>TIME SKIPS>>

Acacia lightly jumped out of the carriage, a sugar candy sticking out of her mouth.

Her violet eyes happily eyed the store in front of her.

"Ciar, hurry!" She enthusiastically exclaimed as she opened the door of the store.

The bell at the top of the door rang as she entered, her butler quickly following her with a basket in hand.

Acacia's amethyst eyes wandered around the dark, dusty shop for a moment before landing on a stray coffin at the corner of the room.

Her heals clicked on the stone floor as she walked. For a moment she stared at the beautifully crafted coffin before knocking on it with a fist.

"Dear, Undertaker, please wake up! I've come to visit you!" Acacia called as her knuckles rattled the coffin.

Familiar, haunting giggles reached both Acacia and Ciar's ears before the coffin opened revealing a long gray haired man with a top hat.

"Welcome, my Mistress! Have you come to get yourself measured for your coffin?"

A small smile made it to the young female's face as she looked at the taller man, "Sadly no, I don't believe I have any plans of going to the other side yet and it seems that I'm still growing. It would be such a waste as shame to get myself a coffin now and then when I die, for it to be too small, no?" Acacia chuckled as she covered her mouth with her gloved hand.

The undertaker joined in with her chucking while Ciar stood in the back, eyeing the male with narrowed blue eyes.

Acacia clapped her hands as if she remembered something, "Oh, I almost forgot, I had Ciar bake you those bone cookies you love, I thought the last batch I brought was almost gone," the violet haired female smiled as she made her butler hand the basket filled with cookies to the undertaker.

Undertaker grinned happily and immediately grabbed a cookie, crunching on it. He chewed for a
moment before swallowing turning his attention back to his guest.

"I've been getting a lot of guest these days, what can I do for you Countess Vandenberg?" Undertaker chuckled.

Acacia's teeth smashed the remainder sugar candy she was eating before pulling the stick out of her mouth, placing it into Ciar's waiting hand.

"I would like some information of the Earl."

"Kukukuku.... Why how interesting, the young countess is interested in the young lord?"

Acacia waved her hand in slight annoyance, "What is the price Undertaker? I have a job to do tonight and I'm rather impatient with the information, if you aren't able to provide me with it, I will just take me leave," the young female's tone suddenly became colder making the Undertaker chuckle in amusement.

"Why, the usual Mistress, my usual... Give me first rate laugh!!!!" The silver haired man cackled.

The lavender haired female sighed and flipped her long hair over her shoulders, "Again with this Undertaker? I've told you so many jokes when we were out for tea last month, you will drain me out of all my jokes," Acacia showed a rare pout.

"I'm sorry Countess, your jokes are too amazing, I must," a wicked grin appeared on Undertakers face as he looked at the small girl from under his bangs.

Acacia looked at Ciar from the corner of her eyes before looking back at the Undertaker. She placed a hand on her hip for a moment, thinking.

"Although, I don't find this funny but offensive..." She muttered under her breath, "And horrible...."

'But when was the last time I cared...?' She questioned herself before she opened her mouth.

"What is a foot long, blue, and makes women scream in the morning?" The female questioned with a stoic look.

Undertaker grinned and cocked his head the the side, "What?"

"Crib death."

The room fell silent. Though Ciar quietly walked up to his Mistress, placing his hands on her ears.

"AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!"

Ciar winced but kept his hands on the smaller girl's ears, making sure the laughter wouldn't deafen his mistress.

The Undertaker giggled as he slumped on the table near by, holding his stomach as he laughed.

"Ah... Countess, your death jokes are always so lovely, kukuku....."

Acacia rolled her amethyst eyes but patiently waited for the Undertaker to compose himself.

For a moment the male's body shook but when he finally calmed himself down, he coughed before grinning widely.

"The young Earl came to me about a week ago with his Aunt and friend for some information of Jack the Ripper."

A small amused smile made it to both, Ciar and Acacia's face before they looked at each other.

"How heart breaking, yet funny," Acacia giggled before she twirled around, "Well, Undertaker, I will come to visit you again with some cookies, next time I hope we could have a longer chat, perhaps about your previous occupation..." A mischievous ghost smile appeared on the female's lips as she looked over her shoulder, "Until next time~"

Undertaker's mouth tugged down for a moment before he grinned widely, "Remember Kitten~ that is a secret between the three of us, only we shall know," Undertaker green eyes flashed out for a moment before his bangs covered them once again, "Goodbye Countess!"

>>TIME SKIPS>>

"ACHOO!" A small sneeze escaped the lips of navy blue haired boy who was leaned against the wall.

Ciel rubbed his nose with his hands glaring at his butler who was smiling down at him.

"SEBASTIAN?! How long has it been again? And get that THING away from me!" Ciel yelled as he glared at Sebastian who was cooing at a cat.

Sebastian childishly pouted before releasing the meowing cat

As Ciel grumbled to himself, extremely annoyed that he needed to dress in peasant clothes while waiting outside of a prostitute's room.

Sebastian was ignoring his master's grumbling, staring at the stray cats that were huddled together.

"Such perfect ears and tail. Piercing eyes.... How wonderful...." Sebastian spoke out loud, his hands shaking because he wanted to pet them.

A melodic laughter is lightly heard through the quiet ally.

The young Phantomhive Earl tensed at the familiar voice. His butler swiftly reaches into his jacket preparing to grab the multiple knives he had hidden, completely forgetting about the cats.

"My, my... Isn't it such a coincidence to meet the Queen's watchdog at such place, Ciar?" The smooth and young, yet wise voice chuckled.

"It does seem like such a coincidence my lady." Another voice was heard. Though compared to the first, it was much deeper and filled with malice.

The Earl grimaced in distaste his nose scrunching, "Sebastian, it looks like the lap cats have decide to show up...."

Acacia emerged out of the shadow, her loyal demon butler standing behind her.

"How mean, I would have thought we were friends by now Earl Phantomhive," Acacia chuckled as she walked closer to them, her heals clicking on the cement street.

A scowl made it to Ciel's face as he glared at the female in anger, "From what I remember, the first and last time I got acquaintance with you, you had insulted me before you had suddenly left."

An amused look appeared on Acacia'd face as she curtsied elegantly, "I must apologize for my action then, I had not meant to insult you, I just thought you would have like me to leave when you were dressed as a female," a sly smile made it to the female's face as she eyed Ciel with her amethyst eyes.

Ciel's face grew red in anger as he glared at the female.

He opened his mouth for a snarky comment but before anything could be spoken the silent night was suddenly disturbed.

"AHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!"
