Author's note: Finally decided to get started on some new projects and I had to right a fanfic involving the reader. So; here is Lavi X Tsundere OC! I tried writing OC X Kanda, but I can only ship Kanda with myself, so it wasn't working out so well. Just a reminder, I do not own D. Gray-Man characters, but I do happen to own the plot. I sort of used the Black Rock Shooter OVA OST, One Day, as inspiration. The "red rose" being Lavi, I guess… it will come in later on in the story. Info on the character:
Name: Layla
Last Name: Unknown
Age: 17
Hair Colour/ Eye Colour: Dark Brown, Honey Brown
The rest, such as her personality and weapon, will come up in the story. Enjoy!
Chapter 1: No reason
Walking around the busy streets of London, I was humming an old lullaby, one that I had known since I was a baby. In one hand, I was twirling the green stem of a daisy, while the other was swaying to the melody. I was wearing a crisp, brand new black coat that I had gotten from the Black Order, for I was their newest edition; Layla [Last Name]. The anti-Akuma weapon was a leather whip, which grows longer and stronger upon being activate. The whip was nothing special; it used to be a leather jacket that I've had since I was a kid, and unknowingly was hiding Innocence. After that, Chief Komui Lee turned it into a weapon to fight. I didn't really know how to use a whip, but this mission should help I get the hand of it.
All of a sudden, I stopped right in I r tracks, right in the middle of the crowded path, went quiet and dropped the flower. The Finder that had come with I, Toma, frowned at I from behind. He was a man with lots of experience, which is why Komui asked him to come with me. I refused the help of anyone else, wanting to try things on I r own. It was just the way I was: Stubborn, and strong-willed. "Where's the police station around here?" I asked him, and he replied with a gesture to I r left, "Around there, but [Last Name]-dono." He didn't question I, but I could tell that he was wondering why I was looking for the police. "I don't want to start this mission without any information. If they are that many Akuma in this city, there must be a lot of murders happening as well. And inspecting murders is the duties of a police officer." I walked towards the station with long strides, trying not to run there. Even if I was young, I did not want to be treated like a little girl, which happened quite often.
Toma followed me, and I impatiently stood at the door. Just then, a woman who was passing my by earlier, transformed into a hideous creature: a level-1 Akuma! I pulled out I mu whip, this would be the first time using it on an Akuma, and struck. It immediately died, leaving nothing but a pile of ashes. Before I knew it, nearly half the citizens around me became those life-stealing monsters. Those who didn't began screaming and ran as fast as they could, away from them. I gulped, not thinking I would have to deal with this many at once, but then I r gazed grew serious. "You chose to wrong girl to mess with." I raised an arm, which held the whip, moved like lighting, striking all Akuma within reach of my deadly weapon. They fired their shots, and I avoided them with incomparable grace.
The Akuma was numerous, but they were still only level-1. After having defeating the majority of them, I was still unsatisfied by the lack of effort it took me. I felt liked turning away, but I had a duty to fulfill and I really wanted to return to the order. I still had so many people to meet, since I've only met Komui, Toma and Lenalee when I arrived. Everyone else was out on a mission. As I raised me my whip for a final attack, I heard, "Big Hammer, Little Hammer, Grow, Grow, Grow!" a giant hammer wiped out the remaining Akuma and I starred in amazement. A handsome, red-head boy smiled at me, "Hello there, miss. Need a hand?"
He winked at I, and I looked at him and cleared I r throat, "Thank-I, but that was not needed." I turned around, hiding the lightest blush from I r cheeks. He was pretty darn good-looking! He scratched the back of his head, "You're welcome. I'm Lavi, by the way." I shook my head, hoping the blush would go away, turned to him, "Layla." He stuck out his hand and I shook it, keeping my brown gaze cold. His emerald green eyes checked I out, "You're new, right?" I gave a curt nod, and he smirked, "Nice to meet you, then. Hope to be working with me soon. If you'll excuse me, I have some work to be doing." He glanced over his shoulder, and mouthed, "Strike!" to no one in particular. I immediately began walking away, "I need to go back to the Order now. Perhaps I will see you later, Lavi." I turned around, not wanting to be near him.
~Time Skip, I am now at the order~
I stormed in through the main gate, and went to the cafeteria and ordered a chocolate cake. I loved chocolate, even though I was in a foul mood. I wasn't sure why, but I hated that Lavi. He just seemed so carefree and laid-back! Of course, I had pretty good reasons to hate guys like that. One being that I worked hard to get to me r goals, and those not just guys, but people like that, seem to do fine in life, without showing any effort! I ate I r high-calorie snack; my pissed off aura repelling everyone from approaching I. I grumbled; my plans for meeting new people were crushed. Suddenly, another exorcist approached me, his dark eyes glaring right at me. I had a feeling that he didn't come here to sit next to I, so I asked him, "Can I help you?" Everyone else in the room's eyes widened and whispered, staring at me. "You're new here, huh? Layla, I've heard of you, as for helping me… don't even think of it. That," He gestured to the chair I was sitting in, "Is my seat."
I didn't know why, but I burst out laughing. "You sound like a child." And then I immediately regretted saying so. Sometimes, being honest wasn't the best idea. I spent the next quarter of an hour running from a really long haired boy with a scarily sharp blade. It only stopped when I bumped into Lenalee, who apologized for I , even though I had said sorry many times as I was running. I learned that his name was Yu Kanda and that he was always in a foul mood.
I already got a tour of the place, but I r bad sense of orientation got I confused while I was running from Mister Grumpy-Pants. Lenalee lead I to I r room, and I thanked her and invited her over to talk for a bit. I definitely wanted to be good friends with her; she seemed to be the only female around. She agreed to stay for a bit and I was overjoyed. I asked her to talk about the people from the Order, especially the exorcists. She nodded and said, "Let's see, so far, you met Kanda, and I… so there's still so many others to talk about. Like Allen, or Krory or Miss Miranda and Lavi!" I sighed, "I met Lavi while I was out earlier." Lenalee was pleased to hear about it, but I was definitely not pleased to talk about it. She began talking of the other exorcists and I listened intently.
After a nice hour of chatting away with Lenalee, Komui came in to check on his sister. He smiled, and I was relieved. Even though it has only been a few days since I've been here, I've heard rumors of what Komui does to any male who gets too friendly with Lenalee. Even if I wasn't a male, I was still afraid of him, from the stories I've heard. Lenalee then left and I realized it was past seven o'clock, a time which I would usually be taking a bath. I decided to just sleep, and I would take a bath early tomorrow. At least, I tried just to sleep, but I was unable to sleep, I r thoughts filled with a certain carefree red-head man. "I won't make the same mistake twice." I whispered to myself reassuringly, before falling into a nice slumber.
