I have no excuse for this... Also it's really old and unbeta'd so.


"Oh crap," Lenalee muttered.

Dozens of level one Akuma had just appeared, surrounding her, Allen, Lavi, and Kanda. Kanda growled and pulled out Mugen, while Lenalee activated her Dark Boots. Lavi yelled "big hammer, little hammer, grow grow grow!" and his mallet extended in size. But behind them, Allen was cracking up. Lenalee spun around.

"Allen, what are you doing? Attack!" she screamed at him.

The white-haired boy just smirked. "Oh Lenalee, don't you see?" And out of nowhere, music began to play.

And Allen sang along.

"When I was a little boy and the sun was going down..."

Kanda gave a death glare. "Tell me he's not."

"The darkness and the shadows, they would always make me frown..."

In response, Lenalee sweatdropped. "He is."

"I'd hide under my pillows from what I thought I saw
But Mana said that wasn't the way to deal with things at all..."

"Then what is?" Lavi demanded, exasperated.

"He said 'Allen, you've got to stand up tall
Learn to face your fears
You'll see that they can't hurt you
Just laugh to make them disappear!'"

Allen faced a group of the Akuma, and let out a loud "ha ha ha!" All at once, the Akuma evaporated. The other exorcists gasped.

"So...
Giggle at the Akuma
Guffaw at the Noahs
Crack up with the creepy
Whoop it up with the weepy
Chortle at the kooky
Snortle at the spooky"

Allen took a deep breath, and spoke normally:

"And tell that big dumb scary face to take a hike and leave you alone and if he thinks he can scare you then he's got another thing coming and the very idea of such a thing just makes you wanna... hahahaha... heh..."

A dramatic pause.

"LAUGH!"

All the Akuma were gone.

All the other Exorcists paused. "Seriously?"
