Ladymagix: Hey guys… *phew* what a really long hiatus. So many things had happened during the months that I was away. (not to mention the projects T.T) Oh well better late than never… here's the sequel to Chained Worlds.

"Two masters of light from different sides will face the same darkness..

Their stories shall be written with the same ink...

Their battles will give victory to the war...

Their light shall tie their fates together..."

"Look for her…"

As the redheaded exorcist tried to have a better view of the scene, for he had only heard voices, he saw a little girl with a flower clip on her head and right beside her was a teenage girl in a dark silhouette. He felt somewhat nostalgic upon seeing them.

Then the little girl reached out at him as tears began to flow on her cheek.

"Please…" unable to finish, blue flame encircled the mysterious strangers.

"Goodbye Lavi" said the girl in the silhouette as they were devoured by the blue flame.

The dream was still left unanswered. He opened his eye and felt like he came back to his senses; he came back to his reality.

He turned to his side and saw Allen in the same situation as his a while ago. He shook his body as he tried to wake him up.

"Lavi? Why did you wake me up?" Allen opened his eyes and began to stretch his arms.

"We shouldn't be slacking off you know." He said with a grin on his face.

It had been four months since the incident in the Ark. They felt like nothing happened to them, like they were only inside the Ark the whole time.

"Looks who's talking." said Allen. "I go check up front. don't eat my Mitarashi Dango while I'm gone."

"What? Don't you trust me?"

"On second thought…" Allen grabbed the last of the Mitarashi Dango and ate it in one bite.

"He doesn't trust me at all" He laughed.

Alone, he tried to reminisce of the incident in the Ark. He felt something was wrong, that he needed to look back from the event. "How exactly did I get this anyway?" He said as he pulled out the bandana from his pocket. With a sigh, he put back the bandana in his pocket and he leaned back with the trunk of the tree as its support.

"Trying to remember something Big Brother?" He felt a tug on his sleeve. It was a little girl with blue eyes and black hair; she was wearing a white dress and a hat that had a pink ribbon.

"Where did you come from little girl?" he patted the girl's head.

"far…FAR away~!" she pointed at him and made a half circle using her finger as a point.

"Is that so?" he smiled. "I better get going. Take care" as he was about to leave, he felt a yank on his uniform.

"Where are you going big brother?" she asked with her innocent eyes.

"Somewhere little girls can't go." He patted her head.

"Eh? Aren't you gonna come with me?" she said as she pulled him as hard as she could. "She wants to see you!"

"Sorry kid, you have the wrong person."

"Come on already Big Brother Lavi!"

His eyes widened upon hearing his name from an unknown girl.

"Lavi, are picking on little girls now?" Allen suddenly came back from his patrol.

"What are you talking about? The girl suddenly came out of nowhere." He protested as the girl kept pulling his arm.

"Hurry!" she then averted her sight to Allen and pulled his arm as well. "Big Brother Allen! Hurry!"

"How does she know my name?" Allen was astonished.

"Come on before--" a swarm of Akuma began to move to the direction where the girl was pulling.

"oh no! Big sister!" she released her grip as she ran through the forest.

"Hey wait! It's dangerous!" they soon followed.

"You're not going anywhere Exorcists!" a level 3 suddenly appeared in front of them.

"We'll be taking her!" he grabbed the girl with his dark barriers.

"Let go of me! You big scary monsters!" she shouted as she struggled her way out.

"Bwahahaha… like that going to happen little girl!" The level 3 swung her back and forth until she passed out. It was about to make for the kill until it felt an impact.

"Let go of the girl!" Allen activated his Crown Clown and slashed the Akuma, leaving the barriers unguarded. "Lavi get the girl!"

"Extend!" Lavi's hammer extend until the girl was at his reach. As the barriers began to disappear, the girl fell into Lavi's arms. "gotcha!"

Allen exterminated the remaining Akumas, leaving them in the clear.

"Are you alright?" Lavi asked as he shook the little girl gently.

The girl blinked a few times until she was able to get a better view. She felt like she was about to cry, as her body began to shake from fright.

"Don't worry, you're safe now" Allen gently patted her head as she began to cry.

"Thank… you" she said. She stood up as she grabbed their sleeves. " Will… you come with me now please?... Please save her.." she cried as she gave a tug.

As they reached the end of the forest, they sensed a peaceful aura around it. Their eyes widened as they saw a lake with blossoming flowers around it, Like there was no Akuma had ever touched it. They rubbed their eyes as they gazed at the impossible dream.

"It's amazing how it survived…" Allen smiled as he took a breather.

"Yeah…" Lavi felt mesmerized around his surroundings. He felt like he has seen this place before. He closed his eyes as he felt the cooling breeze.

"Is anyone there?"

Lavi opened his eyes upon hearing a strange voice. He turned around and saw no one but Allen. "Where did the little girl go?"

"I don't know." Allen shrugged.

"Are you there?" They heard the voice again, but they saw nothing. They took a deep breath and started to roam around the area. Lavi went to the eastern side of the lake while Allen went to the other.

Lavi sighed as he saw no one on his side. He then turned back and went to Allen. Not long, he heard a shout coming from Allen's side.

"Lavi!" Lavi ran as fast as he could. And there, he saw Allen with an unconscious girl with long black hair, rosy cheeks and frail skin. She wore a long white dress and a jade pendant around her neck.

The girl opened her eyes and saw the Lavi and Allen in front of her. "….huh?... how..did---ugh…"

"Miss, are you okay?" the girl looked at Allen and gave him a nod "That's good."

"S-Strike! She's totally my type!" Lavi suddenly reached out her as if he was courting her. "This is a really good place for a date. Wanna be my girlfriend?" He then felt a sudden impact on his head.

"What the hell are you doing Lavi?! You're scaring her!"

"Ouch.. you know I'm just joking Allen." Lavi chuckled. He then turned to the girl. In his surprise, tears began to flow from the girl's eyes. "W-wait! I'm sorry…"

"They…."

"huh?"

"They have broken the promise…." She covered her eyes, wanting to stop herself from crying. Not long, she sensed a horrid aura towards them.

"Something's coming…" Allen's left eye suddenly reacted. "ABOVE US!"

Smoke emerged around the area as a number of Akuma began to surround them closer and closer until there was no room for the Exorcists to escape.

"Found them!' said the level 4 "We won't let you escape this time."

"This is not good…" Allen hissed. "Lavi! Get her out!"

"Get who out?" A level 3 grabbed the girl with his big claws and tighten his grip around her.

"Nngghhhh…" The girl struggled her way out the Akuma's clutches.

"Stop it!" Allen and Lavi activated their Innocence as they fought against the numerous enemies surrounding them.

"Level 3 kill her now!" the Level 4's hands transformed into guns as he fired at the two Exorcists.

"NO!"

*Badump*

"huh?"

*Badump*

"Allen! The girl!" Lavi pointed at the girl as he felt like something unbelievable was about to happen

The girl began to illuminate with white light.

"What is this" they began to close their eyes from the blinding light.

As the light faded, the Exorcists opened their eyes, and in their astonishment they saw no Akuma in their sight.

"The Akuma… Disappeared?" Lavi rubbed his eye as he was astonished of what had happened.

"No… They're…" Allen pointed out as he saw, with his left eye; all the trapped souls from the living machine were free. The souls smiled for their freedom as they began to slowly vanish. "They're free..."
