A/N: Hey! This is my second story. I'm not sure if I'll continue it. I will if people like it. I'm writing this because an evil plot bunny got into my head and wont let me work on my other story until i wrote this XD Anywho Enjoy!
Hei: You're forgetting something
Avi:...can someone else do it please?
November 11th: Oh for petes sake. Thankfully Avi doesn't own DGM or Darker than Black. If she did we'd all be screwed.
Avi: ...Thanks for that.
"Allen...I CURSE YOU"..."Do you want to be an Excorsist?"..."I want to become a doctor!"..."Aren't you really unlucky?"..."Save me..."..."Cheater Boy A"..."ALLEN!"
"AHH!" Allen screamed as he fell out of his bed. Allen, a 15 year old contractor woke up from yet another nightmare. Per usual, he could only remember a few words and faces from his nightmares. His hands were involuntarily shaking. He felt as if something was missing. Something important. That feeling and dread washed over him in waves. He stood up on shakey legs and lead himself to the bathroom. He looked at his paler-than-usual complexion in disdain.
"This is irrational. I am a contractor. There is no need for me to have these fears. Contractors do not dream. Contractors do not have irrational fears." He quoted some of his favorite quips from Hei.
Allen washed his face and ran his metallic hand through his stark white hair and over his scar. Something about it seems important but nothing he can remember.
Allen can only remember up to 6 months ago, when he had apparently fallen "right out of the sky" and onto Hei and Mao.
"So what would you have wanted me to do, Mao?" A young dark haired Chinese man asked, irritated. Now, if anyone was around to hear this man, they would have thought he was talking to himself, or he was crazy. Mao, a chubby black cat with bright green eyes sat down on the swing of a playground and watched him as he continued, "I got lead into a trap, but we found the Contractors behind the doll."
This black cat said, to no surprise to the man, "Hei, it was an unnessasary risk. The rational thing to do would have been to kill her and wait for the contractors to be lured out. The syndicate probably had the info on them anyhow. I swear there are days that you seem more human than a contractor!"
Hei shrugged off Mao's obvious insult, and sat with the cat in silence, watching the stars. In the distance he saw three stars shine bright and then fall. Hei sighed at the knowledge that three contractors died.
A few moments later, something caught their eyes. The three stars that had fallen weren't going out as they fell, but were becoming brighter and brighter. One was headed in their direction. On instinct and pure common sense, the two contractors fled from their spot. A large explosion came from the star smashing into the ground.
Hei looked closer to the impact zone. A smallish amorphous light floated around the impact zone. In the center of the crater was a badly beaten looking 15 year old child in a ripped up uniform. Floating next to him was a small golden mechanical ball with wings and a tail. Strange enough the thing had teeth! It tried nudging the boy, as if trying to wake him up. When that didn't work it flew up to Hei and bit his shirt, pulling him to the hid.
The kid had a fading blue glow around him, similar to that of a contractor. "What should we do, Mao?" Mao was inspecting the kid for any life threatening wounds. "Things always seem to get interesting around you, don't they. There are a few choices. We can either dispose of him, leave him here, or turn him into the syndicate."
Hei's rational side told him that disposing of the child was probably the best option, but he reasoned against it, wanting to gather information about this kid who fell from the sky.
"Mao. You were never here, do you understand? You never saw this kid." Hei said giving Mao a very pointed look. Mao began to walk away saying "I never even saw you, I was here chasing some bird or something."
Hei picked up the young contractor and brought him to his apartment. He told the landlady that Allen was his cousin who was visiting him and fell asleep on the plane ride into the city.
Allen had woken up in that room under a blanket when Hei arrived later that day. Hei asked him a battery of questions which Allen didn't have the answer to. All he knew was that his name was Allen Walker and that he had something very important to do.
Since then he became Allen Walker, aka Crowned Clown assassin working with the Black Reaper's team in the syndicate.
