William had been on his way back to the Abyss -- casually walking and jumping on the rooftops. He was avoiding the massacre that was going on down below. However, he had to stop when his book opened in his hand. It appeared suddenly in the air and began opening to the section related to his subordinates. Dispatcher Sutcliff.

And now he had to go and hunt that shinigami down. Lovely. His steps hurried as he ran in the direction to where he was sure that that fool was. And the fool did not disappoint William. It looked like he was about to be killed if he did not do anything to stop it. His hand came to adjust his glasses as he thought that perhaps he should just let it happen. The scythe instead came out to swing down and to collide with the attacker's shoulder -- meant purely to knock him off balance rather than to actually cause any real damage.

Either way, he jumped down from the rooftop -- only to grab onto a handful of Grell's hair -- before returning to his perch. William did not care if this ended up hurting his subordinate or not. It was the man's own fault that he had to result in doing such annoying things like getting involved in something that neither of them should have gotten involved in the first place. Throwing Grell off to the side of the roof, he addressed the man as he bowed low. "I apologize for the inconvenience he has caused. I doubt this means much to you, but I am sorry." He straightened a few seconds later, believing that it would be wise to leave before any more violence came his way.

"Continue as you wish to, we shall not interfere anymore." Adjusting his glasses once more, he walked over to grab Grell's hair and drag him to the transports -- considering the matter over.

Grell laughed, spluttered, coughed up a fair amount of blood as he found himself yanked upward and away from the masked figure on the street by his hair. The sudden intervention caught him by surprise, and he almost dropped his scythe back down to the street below as he was lifted up to the rooftops

"Will, darling. So nice to see you again." Grell struggled, a bit ineffectually, to get to his feet again, without success. Honestly, being dragged was so demeaning - and furthermore, the friction against the tops of the buildings was ruining his already-damaged clothes.

"As wonderful as it is to see that chivalry is not, in fact, dead, I can walk, you know." Grell chuckled again and with his free hand, pushed some errant internal organs back into place.
