Chapter 2: Who's There?
Kanda's POV
Tyki Mikk *ASSUMED DEAD*
Identity: Mikky
Age: Unknown
Gang: The Noah
Part: Information Collector
Habits: Stealing buttons, making fun of the BOG, causing pain to others, playing strip poker, train hopping
Reputation: Dangerous (7/8)
"Why the hell are we going after someone already dead?" Kanda asked annoyed.
It was 5 in the morning on a Monday and what Kanda did not expect was getting shoved on a train next to the stupid Usagi and shipped off to England. He did not expect it at all, so you could imagine just how pissed off he was.
"Just because they're assumed dead doesn't mean they are." Lenalee scolded him.
Oh, right. He almost forgot that Lenalee was here with her annoying, over-obsessive brother.
Kanda glared at Komui, who was saying something about how pretty Lenalee's hair was.
"Ohh, come on Yuu! It'll be fun! We haven't gone hunting in a long time!" Lavi said cheerfully before Kanda put his hand on his sword.
"What did you call me?"
Lavi waved his hands around saying, "Nothing! I called you Kanda! Kanda!"
Kanda sat back turning his gaze to Komui and Lenalee who were sitting across from him.
"We haven't gone hunting for a month. Why now?"
Komui straitened his glasses, all of a sudden serious.
I swear he's bipolar...
"There's been a drastic increase in the amount of deliveries the Noah have been making. Which means the Akuma have increased as well. And we know what that means."
Lavi interjected, "So they're letting the subordinates, the Akuma, do the dirty work of doing the deliveries."
"Right. Recently though, people have been asking for more drugs, but thankfully the other members of the Black Order Gang have been taking them into custody or killing them secretly. The real problem though is now the Noah don't trust the Akuma to do the deliveries, so I'm assuming they're going to do it themselves. It gives us the opportunity of taking down international criminals, but the Noah aren't afraid to kill us either."
"So were doing in S rank mission. It'll be easy sending those suckers to hell." Kanda stated looking out the window.
"But nii-san, why are we switching schools for this?" Lenalee looked at her brother curiously.
"Your going undercover as students. That's where the other exorcists are from this branch. I heard they are...energetic."
Oh, great. Kanda knows he's never going to find any piece of quiet there. The worst thing possible is someone like Usagi is going to be there...
A few hours later the train left the station leaving a very energetic Lavi, happy Lenalee, smiling Komui, and agitated Kanda. Kanda started walking briskly away from the others hoping to lose them in the crowd, but luck was not on his side, as a few seconds later they reappeared beside him.
Lenalee perked up from where she was walking beside him, "So, where's the school at nii-san?"
Komui replied, pointing his finger straight in front of them, "Over there!"
He sounded way to happy to Kanda's dismay.
All 3 pairs of eyes shifted to see where Komui was pointing only to gape at what they saw, except Kanda of course.
"It's HUGE!" Lavi yelled.
"Shut up baka Usagi, we can see that." Kanda growled.
True to Lavi's word, a huge brick building that looked to be 5 stories tall stood in the center of multiple gardens with swerving sidewalks. A fountain lay in the center erupting with water and behind the school looked to be a grass field with red benches scattered about with dirt on the outer edges, most likely for track. Many students were still milling about changing classes.
"It's pretty easy to see, so I'm sure you'll have no trouble finding it tomorrow. For now let's tour the area and find somewhere to eat!" The others eagerly followed him, but Kanda stayed looking up at the school.
He has a bad feeling about this.
"Is that the only school here?" Kanda asked. Komui looked over his shoulder at the dark haired samurai.
"Yes."
"That's strange." Lavi said looking at all the colorful shops they were passing by radiating delicious smells.
"What are you, a toddler?"
"Yep!" Lavi grinned his only eye sparkling.
Weird.
Kanda could not figure out what was bothering him so much. This is god damn frustrating!
Something flashed in the corner of his eye, but when he turned around nothing was there. Nothing! He's going insane.
"Hey let's go in here." Lenalee pointed to a café that said in bright and shiny letters Jerry's Buffet.
No way in hell was he going in there! The place just screamed "A DISASTER IS GOING TO HAPPEN!". And nobody was in there. Nobody.
He's officially paranoid.
Lavi dragged him inside closing the door shut with a "Bing" from the bell.
The café looked pretty decent. On top of wooden floors were red chairs and tables and in the very corner was a booth. A booth. Seriously only 1 booth, which of course they sat in. And of course it reeked of cigarette smoke.
"Alright sweetie pies! What would you like?" A man with a tag that said Jerry came over. Is he the owner of this place? After giving our orders Lavi stated obviously, "It smells like smoke." Lenalee wrinkled her nose with distaste.
"Wait to point out the fucking obvious." Kanda said leaning as far back into the booth as possible. He wasn't taking the chances of getting his lungs damaged. He had a job to do and not even this smoke was going to stop him from getting it done. He needed to talk to one of the Noah anyway. They're the only ones who know what happened to him.
"Language Kanda! I don't want Lenalee to start spouting that horrible nonsense when we get back home!" Komui apprehended him.
Kanda tch-ed, looking out the propped window, ignoring the talking of his comrades and the food that was just set on the table.
"Ne Kanda?"
"What."
"What do you think will happen to him?"
"I don't know. I don't care."
"That's harsh even for you. You should show respect for those who might not come back!"
"It doesn't matter. They'll be dead anyway."
"That's not true...They might come back...Just like us."
"Don't cry. I'm sorry-"
Kanda shook his head trying to get rid of the painful memories. Why did they always come back at the worst times? He hated it. It was something that was best forgotten...But he could never forget...that night.
"-anda. Kanda? Kanda!"
He snapped out of his thoughts to see Lenalee hovering above him, worry sketched across her face. Wait. When did he get on the floor? Lavi and Komui were wearing identical expressions as they stood off to the side talking to the chef Jerry. More like Komui was talking to him and Lavi just kept moving his head back in forth between him and Jerry. Lavi ran over seeing as he was doing no good over there standing like an idiot. He knelt down beside Kanda seeming to say something.
Kanda couldn't hear him. He felt like a dozen needles were piercing his body and all he could feel was this intense, unbearable pain spreading from his chest to the rest of his body. What was happening? It's never done this before! Kanda couldn't even hear his own screams and he was sure he was screaming. He hadn't done anything wrong, so why was it activating? No. He was thinking about that. Shit. This was not good. His vision was blurring and all he could see were black blurs moving back in forth. God, his head felt like someone had run over him with a carriage.
This shouldn't have happened it's been years since he was taken away from there. Why the hell was it acting up. Just thinking about that night shouldn't have been enough to activate it.
Kanda felt like he'd stopped breathing. Like someone was drowning him in water and wouldn't let him out.
Was that voices...
"What the fuck are you doing, his body's not ready for this experiment."
"-wants him ready by the end of the week. By the rate your going, he won't be."
"-He's under my wing-"
"-be happy about this."
"Get out-"
Why are their voices drifting away? Come back...I don't want to be here anymore...It's too dark...I'm so lonely...
There's too much pain.
"-Yuu."
Come back. Why can't they hear me? Come back...
"Bye-"
No. Don't leave me here with this person...I'm scared...but why...
"-they all need to go."
"an 8 year old child...? It'll ruin everything."
"-too much."
"Stop."
Why are they going away...did I do something...help...where did you go...
Why is it so hot...
This warmth...
Who's there?
Are we running?
Where to...I don't remember...
Don't go...I need to see him...
Is he okay...
Why isn't he here...with us...
Help me...
A/N: Wow...Curse my imagination! It wasn't suppose to take such a dark turn. Okay, if you didn't get it, Kanda was having a flashback from when he was 8. Yep, I'm making Kanda have a really dark past in this fic. But it does say hurt/comfort is the genre.
Well next chapter it'll be back to Red's POV.
So excuse Kanda's OOCness in here, but he is 8 and going through a rough time.
On the top where it has Tyki's street reputation:
1(least trouble) - 10(kill immediately)
Identity - the BOG (Black Order Gang) usually makes up a name when they don't know their real name, in this case Mikky was Tyki's name for the Black Order when they didn't know his real name. Under certain circumstances they now do know his name.
Akuma - they're just regular humans (criminals) who take orders from the Noah (the leaders of the gang). Usually do the dirty work.
The Earl - has yet to show up.
The BOG - they deal with the Noah Family. Usually take the Akuma into custody (Noah's too, but they have yet to catch one) and under rare circumstances kill them. The "exorcists" are spread around the world, so there were exorcists in England before Kanda, Lavi, and Lenalee came.
Hope that clears some confusing stuff up.
Ask questions!
