prologue:
in one of the rooms of the black order's headquarters, lavi, allen walker, lenalee li, and yuu kanda were playing a game of rock-scissors-paper.

a very intense game of rock-scissors-paper.

"all right, this is the last round." lavi told them. "it's all or nothing" allen said.
"our last chance..." lenalee mumbled.
"let's get this over with." kanda told them.

the intensity was growing, this would be the deciding round, to find out which one of them would have to suffer the excruciating process of testing one of komui's rand new experiments!
this latest one being a drug that anesthetizes you, AND removes certain memories! if it doesn't kill you first.

so, yeah, the battle was a desperate one.

rock!
paper!
scissors!

(drumroll please)
and the results!!

allen: rock lenalee:paper lavi: rock kanda:paper (there can be two losers, or even three! the more the merrier.)

"n-no way... allen slumped. lavi almost fainted. lenalee tried to comfort them, while kanda mocked them. "heh, the rabbit-brat and moyashi have the worst luck. it must be your fate to die"
allen snapped. "stop calling me moyashi! it's 'ALLEN'!" then he addded, "unless you're so stupid your brain can't even process that simple piece of information"
"what did you say, moyashi!?" kanda snapped back.

"come on... stop fighting you two!" lenalee said. "and lavi! wake up! you're not going to die now!"

labi was silent.

then he suddenly said her name. "lenalee." grabbing onto her arm. "i.. don't have much time left on this world...cough! cough"
(oh, the drama)
"lavi! it's only going to be for a little while! you'll remember everything after the mission so... don't give up yet!" lenalee tried to persuade him.

"Baka Moyashi"
"straight cut fringe"
"Old Man!" " Bakanda"
The two were still fighting shouting insults.

Lavi touched her face with his free hand and said in a weak voice, "Pr-promise me ..." " Lavi , being too dramatic you'll live. you have too." Lenalee told him but he ignored it. and repeated promise me. please... cough! hack! wheeeze! " Lenalee, alarmed,gasped," oh no... okay! okay! I promise !" anything! just hang in there!" She said ,gripping his shoulders. "... Remember... you said any...thing" his voice barely a whisper. she didn't care anymore, and just said "yes, anything!what? what do you want?" and lavi, using his last bit of strength left, said to her, "i want.. i want you to"
lavi moved closer to her so that only she could hear his last words. when he finished, lenalee turned to the deepest shade of red, and, droppnig the dramatic act, threw him straight at allen and kanda, who were very close to blind rage by now.

and they all tumbled like bowling pins.

their final word was;
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGGGGGGGGHHH"
(if that counted as a word)
prologue end.
