"To betray your friends without knowing…it's so painful. Knowing that they will be forced to fight you, some may even begin to believe you are Noah scum. I know that I must keep walking; I must keep going until the very end. Even if it isn't very easy I have to put in the effort for the ones I love the most Kanda, Lavi, Komui, and Lina-lee…everyone at the order. I've accepted that this Noah is part of me, but I am still me. As long as I'm still 'Allen' I will fight until the very end, because I am the destroyer of time…"

Allen clutched his head as he made his way through the crowds, he was somewhere in England. The accents were unmistakable. He fell to his knees and let his head drop forward. He felt like he had no energy he was hurting all over. "Sir, are you okay?" Allen lifted his eyes to see a young boy looking down at him. "Sir?" He repeated with a worried expression. The boy stood beside him and swung Allen's arm around his shoulder, he struggled slightly as his arm seemed lifeless putting more weight on his shoulders. "Let's get you inside sir." They were the last words he heard the small voice say before his vision blurred and faded to darkness.

"Mum, Mum!" The boy called as he dragged the stranger's body. "What is it Benjamin?" a young lady said hurrying outside. "He's not looking good, we have to help him!" She gasped before darting towards them. She took his other arm, "Let's get him inside quickly."

They had placed him on a bed and began to check his condition. She put a palm to his head and moved his bangs out of the way. She ran her hand across the strange marking on his eye. "What's that?" Benjamin said aloud in a curious manor.

Allen opened his eyes and groaned, "Where…?" the young boy from before caught his eye.

"Oh that's right…" he mumbled as his head fell back on the cushion.

"Try not to move so much." She told him placing her hand on his cheek. "It's weird this mark won't come off…" Allen covered his eye quickly. "Don't touch it!" "Oh I'm sorry…does it hurt?"

He shook his head and let out a sharp breath. "Benjamin get him a glass of water."

"Huh?"

"His life could depend on it now go!" the boy bounced into action believing it to be true. "Yes ma'am."

By now Allen had turned on his side. "Let me see, please. You could be hurt." She grasped his wrist and noticed his arm looked strange.

"So tell me, are you human, or are you just a little different?" she said pulling his hands from his face. "Please leave me alone." He said lightly pushing her away. "You wouldn't understand."

She sat there for a few seconds. "You're right I wouldn't, but that doesn't mean you have to be afraid, or I have to be afraid does it? You're still human after all, even if you do look slightly different."

She stood up, "Get some sleep; you're exhausted more than anything else." Benjamin burst through the door carrying a cup of water. "Don't worry sir, here's your water!" he said almost throwing it all over him.

"Time for bed Benjamin," she said leading him down the hallway into his small room. "You did a good deed today helping that guy." She placed her hand on his head combing her fingers through his hair. "Can you tuck me in?" he said in his sleepy voice. She pulled the blanket over him and kissed his forehead. "Goodnight."

"Mum, are the angels watching over us?" "Yeah…they are always watching over us Benjamin."

The woman stood in the kitchen cooking some food for breakfast. Allen had got up to look for the door, he didn't plan on staying. "Where do you think you are going?"

"Out to continue my journey," he simply replied. "Oh no you don't, at least eat something first." She said putting a plate with food down on the table. Allen's stomach grumbled causing him to stand there and hesitate for a short period of time. He attacked the plate it was almost as if he had swallowed everything on it whole. "Wow, wow, wow go easy on the food you could choke or get indigestion. "Well thank you for the meal and your kindness but I really must be going." He said. She took a red scarf from the coat rack beside the door, "Well then take this it's chilly outside." She threw it over him. "Are you sure you want me to have this?" "We have plenty more; now don't go abusing your body again." She scolded like a mother would. "I won't," he walked down the icy street trying to avoid sliding. "Sir, are you leaving? Sir?" he heard a small voice call after him. He turned around to see the small boy run right into him knocking them both to the ground. "I'm sorry Sir." He said as he sat up. "You should go back inside; it's too cold for you if all you are wearing is pyjamas." "I will Sir, but you won't forget me will you sir?"

Allen placed a hand on his head and messed up his hair as he stood up. "Yes, you helped me." The young boy's face lit up as he smiled. "I'm glad." Allen waved as he walked on ahead. "Good bye sir, take care of yourself!" The young boy waved back excitedly.

"Come on, we have to make it to that church before sun down." A man said dragging a young girl through the crowds of the large city. He held her wrist tightly; he was dressed in clothing that only fairly wealthy people could afford. It was harder to tell what the younger girl was wearing because her clothes were covered by a large hooded cloak. "Keep your eye out for a bell tower." She nodded in response looking up at the tall buildings.

Allen had wrapped the scarf around his face as the weather grew colder. His teeth chattered as he watched the snow fall from the sky.

Mana walked slightly ahead of Allen in the snow, and followed him into a large building with colourful windows. Many of them were pictures representing parts of the story from Noah's ark. They were beautiful but sorrowful seeming pictures, he kept his eye on them as he sat next to Mana in the front row of an empty church service, before him was a large statue representing Noah.

He stopped in his tracks when he seen the church before him, it was still large, but it still had an empty feeling surrounding it. He turned the handle on the large doors to hear an eerie creaking noise as he entered the building. He sat in the front row staring at the statue, his body still shivering from the cold. He heard the door creep open again and decided to duck down and hide in between the second row and the first. He heard footsteps, one set sounded almost silent and the other sounded louder and more forced as if they were announcing their presence.

He peered over the pew to see a tall well-dressed man with a cigar in his mouth, and then to see a cloaked figure as they knelt before the statue. They dropped their hood to their shoulders, it was revealed to be a young girl. She clasped her hands and bowed her head as if she was praying to the statue. Allen was more focused on the man who looked familiar; he tried to place the memory. "Tyki…" He mumbled. The man's eyes shot over in his direction, "Who's there?" he said loudly. The girl stood up and looked in the same direction. Tyki walked over to the end of the pew. "Well if it isn't Mr Walker himself, fancy meeting you here kid." He said placing the cigar back in his mouth. Allen stood up putting a more serious face on. "Look kid we've both even now, right? I'm not looking for a fight today." He smirked. "Or should I call you the 14th. what would you prefer?"

Allen scowled, "Well you must be up to something." He chuckled. "I guess you are right." He took his hat off and ran a hand through his hair. "I'm surrounded by kids today so I guess I'm babysitting." He noticed Allen was annoyed by his comment and let out a small laugh. "Well why are you here?" Allen snapped. "I'm welcoming family…"

Okay so I know this story is very slow to begin with, and I know I have other unfinished stories. I also know that you've assumed I am dead or no longer wish to continue these stories, but I will eventually when I'm in the right mind set. I've also been working hard not to create a Mary-Sue (If any of you read that piece of shit before I deleted it, you will know what I mean) but I've been working hard on character development (making mind maps and all that jazz) and hopefully she will turn out okay. So thank you for reading and if you have any other time left please review and tell me what you think so far.
