I do not own -Man in any way, but i do look forward to the upcoming update.
Run.
There was nothing else Allen could really do in this situation, but run. The mission itself was straight forward, but nothing ever seems to go as planned, because this one took a sharp turn for the worst.
He slowed down and came to stop, using the wall as a support to keep himself upright. Silver eyes glanced around his surroundings, checking for any signs of the Akuma that are hunting him. Poking his head around the corner to check the corridors, he found them to be dark, quiet and empty. He slid down the wall to give his legs a break, after having to fight and then retreat due to the amount of Akuma's appearing, and to make matters worse for him, two level fours.
Running a hand through his snowy white hair, he tried to collect his thoughts together. 'Getting to the Innocence first is one thing, but the amount of Akuma that are here, is the main problem.'He sighed. 'This mission... Nothing is as easy when it comes to the Innocence, and having this many Akuma to deal with won't let me finish it quickly-' He hissed in pain, grasping the wound with his left hand for a moment. 'Right...' It was dark, but he glared at the injury that had been inflicted on him. While he had been making his 'great escape', one of the level two's had slashed him pretty badly along his stomach, and left arm. His arm was mostly fine, the injury wasn't all that bad in Allen's case, at most it was a light stinging pain.
After the pain subsided, he once again glanced around the dark hall he was sitting in. To say the mansion; he was sent to find the innocence in, was large, was a slight understatement. It was huge, the corridors and the rooms in the place had high ceilings, and the corridors were vast in size, filled with dusty statues and other paraphernalia. The wall paper is torn and dirty, showing the old wood and stone behind it, and the floor was covered in holes and cracks. The place had been uninhabited for the past 250 odd years, or so he was told. The mansion was at least three stories high, and the length of the building almost made him think it was a school. The building was surrounded by a large, dense forest, the grass out the front while not as high as it could be, but still came up to his knees, making it difficult to avoid any holes in the ground.
From the report he was given, the Finders had a lot of trouble trying to find where the Innocence was located. They had been unsuccessful in finding any, as the place had been crawling with Akuma, so getting past the first room had been a problem. But from what Allen was aware of; if there are this many Akuma in one place, there is bound to be at least the Innocence around here somewhere.
This brings him to his third problem. Upon entering the building, he and the Finders that were with him, were attacked. Unfortunately for the Finders, they were killed in a matter of seconds, leaving him with no real way to contact headquarters. Well, he could use Timcanpy... But, he doesn't know where the small golem has gone off to. As such Allen found himself in quite the tight situation.
Heaving a sigh, he pushed himself to his feet; deciding to move away from this spot, before the Akuma find him. In order to move effectively, he had to grip his injury, allowing him to cross the unstable terrain, and hopefully get to a more isolated location.
"...hehehe...
...hehehe...
...hehehe... "
Allen felt the hair on the back of his neck raise in corresponds to the laughter, and no doubt about it, it belonged to one of the level 4's. He looked around wildly, hoping it wasn't too close to him. And without his eye activating since he arrived, he had a feeling there was a spell in effect, stopping his eye from even activating, even if the said Akuma were standing in front of him.
"Damn it all!" He hissed. It was still laughing in its said creepy manner, and with the halls being as large as they are, the laughter seems to bounce off the surrounding area, confusing his ability to pick up where the sounds could be coming from. Plus there is the darkness, though Allen has some ability to see well enough in the dim lighting, it still adds to the eerie atmosphere

It was the only warning he got, and he knew it was behind him. Where else was it going to come from? Without missing a beat, he threw himself to the right, avoiding being filled with bullets, but the floorboards he landed were weakened, meaning when he hit the ground it collapsed, with Allen falling through the flooring with a startled yelp.
When he hit the ground underneath, he became aware of two things. One being he was losing consciousness, and two being that one of the broken boards has been impaled into his leg. What annoyed him was more-so that he was buried underneath planks of wood and what-not.
While still conscious, he chose to curse the beret wearing freak, aka: Komui. After all, he did send him on his own, to place that should have Innocence, and if it didn't... Well, let's just say that he will feel Allen's wrath. With heavy eyelids threatening him, he only hoped he could get out his current situation alive. And with that, everything went dark.
AN: Thanks for reading, it would help if you point out mistakes and such.
Again, thanks.
