Lady Shade was sitting in the small café, waiting for the call. She had a short meeting with Lord Phantomhive then she was off on another case. Bane, her wolf demon partner, was laying on the floor next to her, pretending to sleep. But he was her alarm system today. She looked around, watching the busy London street and tapped her fingers on the tea cup sitting before her. "His late...think anything went wrong?" Bane opened one eye and said "You know the time of day, the traffic is going to be a nightmare." She nodded, checking her watch again. She had a few hours before she was to be in Japan, not that the way she traveled would make it hard to get there. This new case she had was putting her on edge and she wanted the Lords comments on it before she left. He was the only one apart from her who had seen his share of the odd. Of course she had never met him in person. It had all been thru the post so she had no idea what him or his butler as the lord called him were like. But she would soon find out as her watch went off signaling that it was noon.
