DISCLAIMER: i do NOT own D. Gray-Man


Tap, tap--rain splatters against the window as I sit in my cold room and watch it run down the glass, a warm blanket resting on my lap. I wore a green sweatshirt with faded blue jeans. My soft, long, dark hair lay against my shoulders. The gloomy day was peaceful. A knock on my door brought me back to reality.

I open my eyes and look to. I see my teacher, Mrs. Moore. I am a junior in high school, who had just fallen asleep in English.

"Good morning, Miss. Desire. How was your nap?" she snorted. I rubbed my tired eyes and looked around the classroom. Everyone had left for home. I yawned and looked back at Mrs. Moore.

"I'm sorry. I just rested my head on the desk. I didn't realize I had been that tired," I explained. The teacher excused me. I ran out of the class with my school bag on my arm. I searched the schoolyard and found my friends. I ran to them.

"Sorry I'm late. I fell asleep in class." I apologized.

"Again?" Miranda asked. She had shoulder length brown hair with dark eyes. She was taller then me by six inches. "That's like the fourth time this week. Tomorrow you better not fall asleep. It's Friday and we're leaving right after school. If you fall asleep again, you won't be able to make the plane." She complained.

I nodded. "I won't fall asleep in class tomorrow," I promised. She smiled and laughed. Then, Lena stepped in.

"Hey, where are you guys going?" she asked. Miranda smiled.

"We're going to London. Since tomorrow is our last day of school for the summer, my family is taking me and a guest to an abandon town. In that town, me and Ai are going to look for an old tower," Miranda explained excitedly. She looked at me. "We're still going to look for it, right Ai?" I laughed.

"Of course we are," I responded. Miranda smiled more excitedly now. She hugged me.

"Yay." she exclaimed. We all laughed except LuLu. I looked at her. She's always the quiet one. She had beautiful long blond hair, always tied up. She looked at us and smiled.

We all walked to Miranda's house. I felt more at home then at my house. We stayed at her house that night. We watched movies and regular T.V. At about midnight, Miranda and Lena fell asleep. LuLu and I were watching T.V. I looked at her.

"I'm kind of scared of going on a plane," I said. She looked at my.

"Why?" she asked in her sweet, soft voice. LuLu mainly talked to me. To her, I was like a big sister.

I shrugged, "I'm afraid what might be on the other side when the plane lands." I looked at the T.V.

LuLu watched my movement then stood up. She walked over to Miranda's open window and walked out onto the balcony. Her house was a big two-story and each room had a balcony. I got up and walked to her. "Is there something wrong?" I asked.

She looked at me. "Do you remember Yuu?" she asked. I hadn't heard that name in years. I looked down then up to the sky and closed my eyes. This helped me not get that upset. After a few moments, I looked at her.

"Yes, I do. What about him?" I asked. She shrugged then looked up slightly and stared at the moon.

"Nothing. I just feel like when you and Miranda go to London, I think you're going to see him." she replied. I stared at her. Whenever she says things like that, it always comes out true. I looked away and down. Me and LuLu we're the only ones that were allowed to call Yuu by his first name. I hadn't seen him since I was 9-years-old. And he was 10-years-old. I thought about the last time I had seen him.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

I was walking home from school after having detention from starting a food fight. It was starting to get a little dark. As I walked, I was looking down and thinking on how much trouble I would be in.

"Ai!" a voice yelled. I looked up and turned around. A boy with shoulder length, dark blue hair running towards me. He was waving one hand and smiling. I stopped walking and waited for him to catch up. Once he did, he was out of breath. I smiled.

"Sorry, Yuu. I didn't see you coming." I apologized. He looked up at me with his dark eyes but sweet smile. He straightened up and had to look down to me. He smiled.

"It's okay. I just saw you walking. This is my last night in this town," he said happily. My smile went away. My best friend was about to leave.

"Why?" I asked sadly. His smile went away as well.

"I'm about to go with Master Tiedoll to train to be an exorcist. It sounds nice. Especially because I get to take my father's sword he gave me. According to Master, it has something called innocence inside it. It works well for me." He explained. I looked down. He stared at me then gave me a hug. "I'll come back. I promise. And I'll show you everything I learned. Please don't be sad." he rubbed my back.

Tears starting streaming down my face as I clung onto him. I didn't want him to leave. "Yuu… Please don't leave me…" I sobbed.

He looked at me and smiled.

"I promise I will come back. I might even find someone for you to be with. Please be patient." He kissed my forehead and hugged me tighter. "Tell LuLu and everyone else I said goodbye please." He whispered. And with that, he let me go then turned around and ran into the darkness. I sobbed uncontrollably all the way home. Since then, all I really cared about was the friends I have now.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

LuLu tapped my shoulder. I was crying, but making no sound. I looked at her with tears on my face.

"What's wrong?" she asked worried. I hugged her tightly.

"I miss him." I whispered. She hugged me back. We went inside a few minutes after I stopped sleeping and fell asleep on the bed while the other two were on the floor.

The next day went by fast. I didn't fall asleep in class but I was about to. I ran right when the bell rung for school over. Miranda and I were picked up by her mom. I gave Lena and LuLu and big hug. "I'm going to miss you guys," she cried, playfully. Lena laughed and LuLu smiled.

"Just be careful and don't talk to strangers!" Lena called as we were leaving. Miranda and I laughed. We got to the airport and fell asleep on the plane. Once I woke up, Miranda was still sleeping. The room of many passengers was quiet. I looked out the window. All I saw were clouds. I rested my head against the windshield and watched the clouds until Miranda woke up. We listened to music until the plane landed. One of Miranda's aunts picked us up and we went to their HUGE house. Miranda and I shared a room. We didn't mind. We unpacked then ran outside. It was about dark. We started searching to the abandon had our cell phones, so we stayed out past midnight. We didn't go home yet. We made it to the edge of the town. That's what we saw it. A huge tower, isolated from the world. We found a boat near the bottom and went to the building. We were amazed at the sight. When we got there, we stepped out of the boat and walked in the gold grass up hill. I started at shiver. It was really cold out. I looked at Miranda.

"Should we go back?" I asked. She was smiling and shook her head.

"I want to touch it." she said dementedly. I laugh. She was such a little girl. We walked until we had to climb. She climbed real well while I almost fell a few times. Once we made it up, we saw little black bats with what looked like an eye in the middle. There were a lot. I started to get a little scared. Miranda ignored then though. She helped me up and she started to run.

"What are you doing?" I yelled. She looked back and started to run backwards.

"I'm going to go touch it." she exclaimed back. I ran after her and she turned around and ran normal now. I caught up with her and we stopped at a huge face. We looked up at it. We were in the bushes and trees so it didn't see' us. We walked around the wall and tried to find a new place for Miranda to 'touch.' As we ran, I heard something. I stopped running. Miranda didn't notice and kept going. I walked towards the noise. A tree fell down and I heard something like a sword. My heart raced. I was hiding behind a tree. Dust was everywhere so I couldn't see anything. Then, something touched my shoulder. I jumped slightly and turned around quickly. It was Miranda.

"What are you doing?" she tilted her head. I looked towards the dust and saw it went away. And no one was there. I looked back at Miranda.

"Sorry. I thought I heard something." I looked down. Then I heard a stomached growl. I looked at Miranda. She was hugging her stomached. She looked at me and laughed.

"Sorry, I'm a bit hungry." she said. I smiled and hugged her.

"Let's go touch the building and go home." I told her. She nodded.

As we started to head towards the building away, we were walking. I heard another noise. This time, so did Miranda. We started to run. I fell. I hit something and it was on me. I had my eyes closed. I was terrified. It got off me and started to speak.

"Oh my gosh! I am so sorry! Are you okay Miss?" It was a boy's voice. I opened my eyes. Right above me was a boy with snow white hair and gray eyes. He has a bad scar from his forehead to his cheek. I was just lying there, looking right up at the strange boy.
