The base of the Black Order, where Exorcists who battle Akuma to keep the peace, and if a strange item called Innocence were to go crazy, it was their job to find it and take it back to the Black Order. Allen placed his hand on his chin, his fingers covering his mouth as he started to wonder about this strange weather he'd been hearing about in the United States.
Lavi secretly began creeping up right behind Allen. Allen then looked up at the ceiling. Lavi chuckled lightly to himself and poked Allen surprisingly yelling "Prepare to die!" He couldn't help himself but to laugh at his sad little joke.
Allen jumped in surprise and turned to see his red-haired friend, Lavi. "Lavi, you idiot! You could've actually given me myocardial infarction!" he shouted.
"Myo-what now?" Lavi asked with a comical drop of sweat at the back of his head.
"You're a Bookman, you should know these things!" Allen teased, smiling at his friend. That was something he needed to clear his mind a little.
Lavi was an Exorcist and a Bookman in training. Allen's smile changed to a frown in a moment's notice, "Lavi… I was busy thinking. You know better than to surprise me when I'm deep in thought."
Lavi replied "Aww, but it's my job as your best friend to sneak up on you and disturb those deep thoughts, and bring rays of sunshine to you!"
"Too bad, you brought darkness to me. You've depressed me, I think I'll go hide in a corner now…" Allen lied with a laugh.
"Hey, don't do that! Let me clean that up for ya!" Lavi comically took out a broom, and swept the corner nice and clean. "There ya go, now it's ready for sulking!"
"You're a very dark, disturbing person, you know that, right?" Allen chuckled.
"I'm not the Earl" Lavi answered with a glare. The two stared at each other for a long while before bursting into loud laughter.
"But to get back on topic, my thoughts related to the fact that there's very strange weather going on in New York of the United States of America… I suspect there may be Innocence there…"
"Oh… You really think so?" he asked, his expression darkening. The two stared at one another again, as if thinking in sync before Lavi burst into laughter. "Oh come on, you know that Innocence would be there! It'd be practically against the laws of physics if Innocence weren't there to screw the weather!" he laughed hysterically.
"Yes… But what I'm wondering is how it even got there in the first place. And one of our Finders reported that Akumas have been sighted multiple times." Allen answered, and couldn't help but to chuckle at Lavi's earlier comment.
Like a drunk, Lavi laughed and swung his arm around Allen's neck, their cheeks in contact with one another. "You idiot, why else would there be Akuma there? There is a host there, they want him/her dead or alive, and are hunting them down! All we've gotta do is just hunt them down, and we're all good" he laughed before his thoughts drifted off someplace else. He couldn't help but to drool as he imagined the host being a young woman with a large bust. His nose began to bleed comically as hearts formed in his eyes.
Allen looked at him with a comical drop of sweat at the back of his head, muttering "Hopefully it isn't the gender you're praying the host is…"
An adolescent with black hair, black eyes, his sword in its sheath, strapped onto his back, and his right arm covered in bandages as well as his right eye walked past a large building that seemed to still be under construction and looked up what was built so far. He then turned away as it began to rain once more. "These bastards want me… Then they can kiss my ass. I won't be giving up my power to those bastards" he boldly stated before unsheathing his sword and pointed it at the moon. "Hmm… If they're attacking me, then maybe they might just be around… I guess I'll stick around 'til they find me" a smirk slowly crossed his face, as if he indeed were evil.
This adolescent was named Kesenai Tsumi.
Komui knocked on the door to Allen's room "Hey Allen! Guess what?" he said with a goofy smile on his face.
"Er… you're going to fix my Crown Clown again?" Allen swallowed nervously before backing himself away from Komui Lee, the Chief Monitor of the Black Order.
"No… but would you lik—
"NO!" Allen screamed out, covering his mouth with his hands quickly.
"Aw, oh well. You have a new mission, and I'm not taking no for an answer, so ha! You have to go to New York, United States of America and find the Innocence that's there" Komui declared, pointing a finger at him.
Allen nodded quickly with multiple drops of sweat at the back of his head, "Yes, I'll be heading there. May I take Lavi and Kanda along with me in case things get a bit rough?"
Komui nodded his head "You'll require their consent before going with them."
Lavi laughed, "Oh hell no."
"But why?" Allen got on his own two knees, sobbing. "Please, please come! You're gonna leave little old me to just die there in an unknown land where even the American Branch couldn't do anything! Some friend you are!"
Lavi sweat dropped, patting Allen on the head, "Don't worry bean sprout, you'll be—
"I'M AVERAGE HEIGHT!"
"… Fine, I'll go. Sheesh, you can be such a little kid, ya know that?" Lavi laughed at Allen, the two shaking hands firmly.
Allen began heading over to Kanda's usual hang out spot. Kanda was sitting there, watching the night sky's moon. "What do you want... bean sprout?" Kanda looked at Allen with a glare.
Allen said "I need you to go on a mission with me to New York to recover the Innocence that's there." Allen answered.
Kanda took a few minutes to think to his own leisure, relaxing and sighing again as the moon reflected against his dark eyes.
"I don't have all day, it's an easy question: you coming or not?" Allen popped the bubble of thought with a drop of sweat at the back of his head.
"If that's the case then I'll go with Lavi and you. Just don't hold me back… Got it? Even if that means that I'm going to kill that stupid rabbit's dumb ass" he looked at Allen with a silent, raging signature glare.
Allen smiled with a sweat drop "Thanks… I think." He then turned around and started to head back down to his room to pack up for their long trip.
After about 5 hours, Allen, Kanda, and Lavi arrived at New York, looking at all the city. Lavi whistled in impression "Wow, this place really looks like a good place to live in. You could play hide-and-go seek here for ages, and nobody ain't gonna find ya!"
Allen looked around as well "Yeah… This place looks nice I guess." His focus lied more on where the host was, looking around cautiously.
Kanda remained silent, analyzing his surroundings. "This place is too quiet… It seems too suspicious." They began to walk off toward a tall building that read "Still under Construction". Kanda sniffed the air and quietly said "Blood…"
Lavi sniffed the air as well "Yeah… Smells like blood here." He stiffened as his eyes darkened at the seriousness of the moment, which would usually be a lot to say since he is usually the joker type of person.
Kanda looked at a specific direction and began charging in that direction, beginning to unsheath his Mugen. He was attacking a figure that was hiding from them.
The figure reacted and took out a sword, blocking Mugen's attack with just a simple clash. The figure chuckled "So you figured me out."
Kanda growled, "Who are you and why do I sense something from you?".
The figure chuckled, "I won't tell you shit… You can kiss my ass!" The figure pushed his sword forward, pushing Kanda away easily. Kanda caught himself, and stood his ground as he readied his sword.
"Fine then, I'll force the answer out of you!" he ran at the figure again, slicing at it while it side stepped and parried all his strokes and slices.
"You're a worthy opponent." he smirked.
"You're utterly horrible at this, and should die in a hole full of Akuma blood. Death by drowning" Kanda smirked. "But aside from that, I'm still better at this than you!" he sliced at an opening that was left by his opponent. The opponent cursed in frustration as he backed away, muttering a little bit. His features were now seen under a street lamp, revealing a teenager who couldn't be any more than 17 years old. He had black hair, as well as deep black eyes that showed determination. He wore a scowl that matched Kanda's perfectly! It was as if the two were built for one another.
"I guess I'll tell you my name… The name's Kesenai, and kicking your ass…" he said, watching his left hand bleed from holding the blade, "is my game."
Allen looked at Kesenai to see a blue scar that matched his red scar, but this one was on Kesenai's right, not on the left. Kesenai push-kicked Kanda's rib, sending Kanda backward by at least 10 feet, "I may not be as good at sword-fighting as you are, but I'm sure as hell better than you at fighting with my other body parts!"
Kanda took his stance, showing he was ready for more "Then I'll cut off every damn limb on your body and feed them to stray animals!"
"I didn't think Kanda had such a sweet side to him" chimed Lavi.
"Shut it, stupid rabbit, or you're next on my list!" Kanda hissed.
Kesenai sighed "I don't feel like fighting now… It's getting boring. Maybe some other—
Kanda cut him off by slicing his left arm, leaving a large gash there even deeper than the previous one.
Kesenai's eyes sprung open as he coughed blood "Bastard… Looks like you got me… Ugh." he coughed.
"If you hadn't spent your time telling me how boring I am like the ass you are, then you would've seen that coming" Kanda said coldly.
"Silly bastard… I'm not finished off just yet…" he ran at him, sword ready again. Quickly, he slashed at Kanda, who parried the attack and then launched his blade forward to pierce him. Kesenai spun around, avoiding the blade with beautiful movement, and then brought his sword up towards his enemy's face!
Kanda blocked Kesenai's upward slice and tripped him with a sweep kick. "Want more of an ass-kicking, or did your sorry ass have enough?" Kanda asked coldly. He slowly placed the blade closer to Kesenai's neck mercilessly.
Kesenai's eyes revealed that he wasn't going to just let this happen, "Hell yeah! This fight's getting good!" He jumped up onto his feet, knocking Kanda off and nicking Kesenai's shoulder slightly. A bold move that was. Next, ran around in circles around Kanda at a speed that seemed almost inhuman. Kanda's eyes glared as he kept a watch on Kesenai, waiting for his attack.
Kanda watched carefully for his opponent, not even taking his eyes off Kesenai for a second! This brat. I'll break every fucking bone in his body if I have to now.
Kesenai shouted "Take this!" when he stopped in front of Kanda and sweep kicked him. Kanda fell onto the ground like a dead body, seeing the fighting spirit in Kesenai that matched his own will to battle. Then, Kesenai punctured Kanda's right arm, holding him down almost as mercilessly as Kanda had done earlier. "And now it ends. Checkmate…" he smirked.
Kanda twitched, his punctured arm tightening. "You little bastard, you haven't gotten the best of me! I still have one working arm!" he flung his fist at Kesenai's face. He avoided it, and then flexed himself in a position where his foot forcefully held Kanda's arm towards the opposite direction, painfully stretching it enough to nearly break!
"Either give up, or lose an arm, pick your poison" Kesenai said coldly.
"… I'll get you later for this, you little brat" Kanda menacingly glared at him.
Kesenai got up, sheathed his blade back to where it belonged and stretched his arm toward Kanda, offering to help him back up. "For a person that I don't even know, I think we might end up being good friends if we try to get to know each other."
Kanda slapped Kesenai's hand away and got up on his own, "I don't need your pity..." he grunted.
Kesenai shrugged his shoulders and burped loudly enough for the earth to feel like it was shaking.
"Nice one!" Lavi fell to the ground while laughing.
Allen looked upset and said "Excuse you…"
Kesenai looked at Allen, examining him "You look like one of that gentlemen-type of people… I don't like being gentlemanly. So don't try to tell me things such as "Excuse you", got it? I plan on returning with you guys since you came such a long way to come and retrieve me." Kesenai began walking ahead of them. Lavi laughed and followed along with Kesenai as well as Allen, who was a bit angered by Kesenai's remarks, and Kanda, who was still angered by his defeat against Kesenai.
That is my sad attempt at making the first chapter look better. Tell me what you think. Peace out.
