DISCLAIMER: I OWN NOT D. GRAY-MAN. IT'S SAD, I KNOW.
Tyki075: Hello people! How's life? So, I got all these words from a random word generator. All of them. I literally came up with none of them.
Allen: Yay! Maybe we have a chance!
Tyki075: Of course, I chose the ones I wanted to write a story to.
Allen: Fuck life.
Tyki075: And if any of you guys want to submit a word and a story idea you want to go along with that word, then I'll write it for ya.
Allen: -_- Great, you're getting them in on my pain as well.
Tyki075: Don't worry Alley-chan, there's nothing too bad… yet. I have already written three one-shots and they aren't THAT bad. Though I can't promise anything about the other ones. Actually, I already have some pretty angsty ideas for some of the words I have written down.
Allen: Yaaaay.
Tyki075: You can shut up, I have readers to talk to!
Allen: *scoffs* Yeah right, like you actually have anything to say.
Tyki075: … Fair point. Other than the whole SUBMIT WORDS AND IDEAS thing, I don't really have anything other than these won't be the longest things in the world, so just to warn you. That's really it! I hope you like it! Let us set forth!
Guard:
Allen had never had someone who was willing to step into the line of fire for him, no one who would stand in front of him. He never had anyone who would protect his life at the cost of their own.
Even now, when he's at the Order, he knows that no one will risk their lives like that. Lenalee has her brother to return to and Lavi is a Bookman. But Allen doesn't blame them. How could he? They have something to live for.
Because of this, Allen was more than shocked when Kanda protected him. They were locked in battle with a group of Level 3s and Allen let his guard down. He had turned around just in time to see the attack coming right at him, but he didn't have enough time to move, so he closed his eyes and prepared for the pain.
Allen slowly opened his eyes, however, when nothing came. He was shocked to see Kanda; Mugen raised, in front of him, his body tense and straining against the force of the attack.
"K-Kanda?" Allen stuttered.
"Baka Moyashi! Watch your back! I won't protect you next time!" Kanda yelled, shoving the Level 3 away before slicing it in half.
Allen smiled slightly, then nodded and jumped into battle.
(Since I am not in the mood to write a battle scene- laziness!- Imma just gonna insert a little time skip!)
Allen flopped onto his bed as soon as they reached the inn.
"You know Kanda, you're a liar." Allen declared suddenly, making Kanda turn towards him, a scowl on his face.
"What did you call me?" The samurai growled.
"A liar." Allen repeated, "On my first mission, you told me that you wouldn't save me if I ever got into trouble. You just did, so you're a liar."
Kanda raised an eyebrow, "Would you prefer it if I just left you to die?"
"No, no. I just find it curious, is all." Allen explained.
"We can't afford to lose you." Kanda said.
"Awwww, you do care!" Allen smiled.
"As an Exorcist." Kanda deadpanned.
"Ah, the famous excuse!" Allen sighed, resisting the urge to roll his eyes.
"What's that supposed to mean, Moyashi?" Kanda snarled.
"It means that whenever someone dares to even suggest that you might just care, you throw up your walls and make up some bullshit excuse about the Order needing Exorcists. Why can't you just admit that you care?" Allen said, sitting up and leaning back on his hands.
"Because I don't." Kanda growled.
"See? That's what I'm talking about!" Allen insisted, "Why won't you let anyone in?"
"You're an idiot, Moyashi." Kanda said, turning his back on the boy.
"Just tell me why you protected me!" Allen demanded, "Then I'll leave you alone."
Kanda sighed, "Because you're a reckless idiot. You obviously won't protect yourself and everyone else is too caught up in their own lives to do shit, so who else is there?"
Allen smiled and lay back down, waiting until he heard Kanda settle into his own bed to whisper, "Thank you, Kanda."
"Baka Moyashi. I'll always be there to guard you."
End.
Tyki075: Yep, that was pretty fucking short, I know. It's not my fault, I have limited space in my notebook and only so many ideas. It's not even 1,000 words. I want to cry right now. IT'S SO SHORT!
Allen: So?
Tyki075: Shut your face! You have no idea! I've never had such a short chapter!
Allen: Calm down! It's just a one-shot.
Tyki075: AAAAHHHHHHHH!
Allen: CALM DOWN!
Tyki075: I'M A DISAPPOINTMENT!
Allen: Dude, you have two more to type up still!
Tyki075: …Good point, good point. Well, even though it was SHORT AS FUCK, I hope you liked it. Review, fav, follow, SUGGEST WORDS/IDEAS, etc, etc. Squadala!
