"Lavi!" I shout to him as he's knocked into a tree. "I'm fine" he rasps out, wiping the blood from his lips. "No you're not!" hes not, he's so hurt.

"Open a gate!" He shouts starting to run towards me once he's back on his feet. I oblige and quickly open a gate. The bright white of it lights up the dark gloomy forest surrounding the wrecked black order that the remaining noah attacked not one hour ago in the dead of night.

"Hurry!" I shout at Lavi with so much desperation as she see the earl start to reach out to him. He starts to pick up his pase with what little energy he has left bit it's in vain as the earl grabs him by his orange scarf and he is yanked back. A chocking sound escapes past Lavi's lips. "LAVI!!!" im about to run to help him but am reminded of the small scared toddler in my arms and take a step back with a grimmis, clutching the toddler tighter to my chest.

Lavi thrashes about in the earls grip struggling to say what little he can. "G-get out if h-he-" he is abruptly cut of when the Earl pulls his scarf tighter. "Let him go!" I shout in both anger and fear for Lavi's life. "Now why would I want to do that 3" The earl or mana says in his usual creepy voice and getup.

"A-al-len g-go" lavi trys again. "NO!" I refuse. "Go" he says with a demanding voice looking into my eyes. My eyes start tearing up as i know i dont have much of a choice, and Lavi knows it too. I stand my ground in sorrow, despair and so much regret as she feels her body lose control as It starts to move towards the ark.

Before I'm turned away completely I look at Lavi as he says "I lo-ove y-yo-u" with that stupid grin that I love so much on his face. The tears poring down my face grow heavier and faster as I lose sight of him. "No! No! Let me go Lavi! No!" I wail going into the ark not saying 'I love you' back because I refuse to believe it's the end.

The ark gate closes as soon as I enter it. Lavi looses control over my body and i continue what he started. I run into a random door of the ark and emerge in a allyway of a strange place. I look at my son crying in my arms and try to calm him down but it fails. Tears still faking from my face aswell as I look around the strange place.

"Hey! Little boy!" I call to the only person on the streets. He stops walking and turns a bit towards me as I'm to his side. "Yes?" He asks. I run up to him and observe him. He has short black hair and eyes along with pale skin. He looks to be around the age of 7.

I offer my child to him and say "please, I can't care for him, take him, help him grow" I don't give him much time to reply as I put my son in his arms and start to turn away "His name is Natsu" is the last thing I say as I run back into the alleyway and ark. And as I also run away from our son and back towards lavi.

As I step out the ark and onto the grass is notice the lack of many things. One the earl, two the Akuma and three the most important lavi. "I was too late..." I say to myself sliding to the floor as the ark crumbles behind me. The tears never stopping. I stay there for what seemed like hours before I notice something on the ground.

"Lavi's innocence..." I mumble picking it up after crawling towards it. I realise that it's suspicious that it's still in one piece but I don't care. It was Lavi's and i will protect it for as long as I can.

And so it started my search for lavi. A search that took years. All of them never gained me any progress, any closure. I still hoped that lavi would be ok and alive somewhere, no matter how slim the chances where.
