Introduction: Chance on fate; head first thinking last

A scorching desert stretched for miles on end; there was few signs of life none being of the normal. A scurrying lizard there a bug here few in their right mind would wander such lands; but fate was kind to strangers this day. A wandering circus was in need of some help regarding the animals it wasn't much but it granted her a life. She wasn't exceptionally talented in her own eyes but she did bother to learn what anyone would teach her. She seemed to be abnormally dexterous and very tough, a good combination for a trapeze artist it was her arm that made the ringmaster think twice about offering.

In truth she didn't blame him; her arm was hideous it was why she was in that desert to begin with. She often thought how her life would be without the limb. Her deformed arm that looked burned the ring leader tried to get her adopted by any wealthy man that stooped to glance at her. Even her exotic silver eyes didn't catch their fancy enough to overlook the limb. Always that arm was in the way; there was little she felt she could do about it.

However she was grateful when one of the local artisans in Paris gave her a set of black silk gloves to hide her arm. 'You need it more than me' he had said, she to this day didn't understand why a passing stranger would gift her with such a simple yet elegant gift. But the gloves did serve their purpose well in hiding the limb.

She didn't know who he was but apparently he was kind of infamous piano player, and after that day no one had heard of him or seen him for that matter. The strange man that stopped to give her what she needed to look somewhat normal. An idea had hit the ringmaster when that happened. If not for that strange dark hared man she wouldn't have been where she was this day.

And so here she was a small Clown; She hated clowns. Accompanied by a man named Mana, she actually liked him thou would never admit it; Doing a wearied sketch involving a scene where she chases the larger clown around in circles with a rubber chicken. The laughs brought out by the people were something she liked to hear, the more they laughed the more people came to the show the better everyone eat and she for some odd reason had always needed more then normal. But even than this small child had no idea what was about to befall her and her now adopted father.

The show had ended and everyone was packing up to leave for the next showing everyone except Mana and his 'new' doughtier; they were headed elsewhere in the world. So it was that Allen got to say farewell to a place she rather forget a circus of misfits that never wanted her to begin with so naturally there were no teary goodbye.

"Aren't you going to miss them Allen?" he asked looking at the small girl wearing her silk gloves and a long sleeved tunic with matching trousers.

"No." she said simply her honesty was brutal in this that she didn't want to see them again anymore. So she just watched the others leave tossing a star covered ball that Mana had given her up and catching it.

The caravan faded and her reaction didn't change. Mana was tempted to laugh at the girls scowling face, she was too adorable to look threatening but he would be dammed if she was trying her hardest to give them a death-glare they would not soon forget had they bothered to look back. This was one day he would not soon forget, the foundling and a clown.

As time passed Mana would teach her a secret language that his brother the 14th taught him; she took to it effortlessly. She was in every aspect but blood his child; then the day came in the horrible rain. Sudden and without warning Mana had been killed, yet as everyone thought it was caused by the horrible weather they would mealy come to her telling her he died in the carriage accident.

Fraught with grief this was the first time Allen would see the Earl; falling like so many for the temptation to see her Father again. And in doing so she would awaken a sleeping magic within her self. This time meeting a clown of a different sort, but this one promised a Destiny she had no choice but to accept if she ever wanted her revenge against the earl.

~ Inn: "on the sands of Arabia" ~

This was a frustrating situation General Cross for a change in a sudden spark of brilliance was going to 'headquarters' and dragging her with him. Well it was more like one of the other generals was going to 'escort' him. She knew better than to ask and was more worried bout the strange dress her master had insisted on her wearing. She growled at the silk trying in vain to tie the strange sash. This didn't go unnoticed by Cross as he exited the room and walked over to Fori's grouchy apprentice and gabbed the samurai by the scruff of his collar.

"Naa, what the FUCK general!" he howled angered; he had been pulled form a mission by Tiedoll and told to 'Accompany' him to 'fetch General Cross' the one famed for being a womanizing jerk. No one expected to meet Allen Walker; the small female apprentice of general; Cross and the only since of order that came into the chaotic mans normal actions.

Kanda Yu's mood was about to get worse as he was forcibly thrown into the room with Allen who Screeched at Cross for the action and went to hiding behind the dressing screen in the hotel room leaving the sash on the floor in the process.

Kanga growled again and went to leave the room but found the door slammed in his face. "Help my idiot apprentice with her dress." Said Cross making it clear Kanda had been requited for some nasty plot the womanizer had stored in his mind. The Japanese man turned to the semi shy female in the room noticing her trying to adjust an ironically oversized kimono on her small frame.

He was tempted to laugh at the poor thing who looked completely lost and as if she didn't want anything to do with the difficult garment. He sighed in defeat walking over to pick up the sash and came closer to her. "Stand still bean sprout!" he said.

"My names Allen," she retorted backing off only to be cough by Kanda who in an effortless motion folded the Japanese gown so she could walk in it and tied the Obi. Once he was done he walked over to the door growling about weird generals and opened it to be greeted by his master.

"Now, now Yu-chan Moyshi is not a proper thing to be calling a young lady my son." Tiedoll said Allen rolled her eyes at the men and walked by them with a pillow in hand. Daisya who was watching from the sidelines burst out laughing as Cross' 'Adorable' apprentice clad in a kimono Smacked the snickering general upside the head with said pillow.

"Don't say it." Kanda warned as he sat next to his fined who was laughing outright at the image before them. Tiedoll just shock his head in disapproval as Cross tempted to defend himself form his enraged apprentice to no avail.

The carriage ride to the order was no better he had been stuck next to 'the bean sprout' and his hormones were not playing fair with him specially given her current attire. Seeing the small exotic girl in the dress from his culture was torture, he silently wished he hadn't helped her with it and suggested she simply wear a different dress. This in it's own right was useless.

He had no doubt that it would probably be even more tempting in some other garment. He had to admit thou seeing cross 'cower' form a pillow wielding Allen was priceless, and thou he forbid Daisya form saying it he did like the way she looked in the dress Cross had picked out.

Kanda wanted to grind the old man into the ground for what he was doing. But he had as much say in the general's actions as Allen did and they both knew it. On the plus side that scar gave her a nasty death glare that would probably get Cross shaking in his boots if he bothered to actually notice the look. Out of nowhere he snickered at the scene that was before him, it was just too much.

"My god; hell has frozen over!" Exclaimed Daisya;

"Hay shut up," complained Kanda "you were the one in stitches when she was pummeling General Cross with a pillow." Allen's attention was drawn form glaring at her master to watching the argument unfold. General Cross on the other hand was hiding a grin under his hand, it was perfection perhaps the chaos between his apprentice and Fori's would give enough for him to escape the dramatics.

"You do know Kanda that you're my apprentices Escort tonight right." Said Cross eager to get the chaos started.

"WHAT!" Allen and Kanda said in unison; glaring at each other than back at the general.

"That's why I have her wearing a Kimono to begin with." The General grinned watching the exchange.

"Master how could you expect me to go to a 'fancy outing' as you put it warring a dress form foreign country; accompanied by a antisocial Swordsman that glares remind me more of a demon than a rabid wolf, again as you put it." Said Allen in a flawlessly kindly manner that was very unfitting of the words coming form her mouth.

Kanda would have been offended if he hadn't seen the reaction Fori had to this; "Care to let me in on you're little plain Cross."

"Kanda needs a girlfriend and Allen needs someone who doesn't give a shit about her arm, what better candidates for the other. You're apprentice that doesn't care for relationships can merely act as an 'host' to my idiot apprentice who needs an 'escort' for this little get together." Explained Cross to everyone's shock. "YES; I read my missions. Gives me something to whine to the corporate bureaucrats about."

"Oh great I get to baby-sit Moyashi because central wants to throw a party where women are required to being a date."

"What a womanizing asshole, my names Allen, not Bean sprout or Moyashi, and I'm aware they are the same thing Ba-Kanda." She glares at her 'escort' with that same intimidating glare.

His inner self smiled, she was very cute, and he wasn't going to squander this so he just let out a keh and turned away letting her 'win' this round.
