Belle Adams' Butler
Waking up from a nightmare several hours before dawn, Belle fetched a drink of water. She paused in front of her kitchen's window when she noticed a lit lantern in front of her mansion's garden. Her butler stood there, shovel in hand. This was no hour to be gardening. Curious, she made her way outside, but when she had gotten close enough to see a large and hollow pit next to her eternally-stoic and polite butler, she saw him pick up a rotten body. A DEAD BODY! Her eyes widened fearfully when she saw her handsome butler drop the rotting body into the fresh hole. She asked in horror, "What are you doing?!" Surprised to see his young miss awake at this hour, he stared at her with the same expression he had been keeping up for all these years. He had made sure she was asleep before coming here. "Gardening." "And the body?!" she looked at him in disbelief. "Fertilizer," he answered her before picking up the shovel that was on the ground. Belle was now certain something had possessed her butler. Who gardened dead bodies?! She then heard him ask her, "Want to help me in planting it, Miss Adams?" he gave her a sweet smile.

Catching attention- Part 3
Belle moved her shoe back on the grass as the creature came towards her while she had the umbrella placed in front of her. She didn't know what this was. She had never seen anything like this before, something so tall and lean that was covered in a blanket of old ragged cloak covering its face but its hands were visible. Skeleton hands that were murky and dirty that reminded her of something she had seen when she was a child.
"You nameless reaper get back here," Barron shouted from where he was, "Your business is with me, not her."
The death reaper stopped its footsteps, turning back to look at the stuffed toy and for a moment Belle was confused as to what was going on. The creature whispered something in the air which she didn't understand.
"We have orders to kill the ones who you are attached to. This is the one that is keeping you here."
