Chapter Two: The First Sacrifice
"Supervisor!" A stern, demanding and very threatening voice called, startling said supervisor out of his comfortable chair and onto the ground where many papers lay. Lenalee, who must have been visiting her older brother for god knows what sort of strange schedule he has, turned and gazed at Kanda with a confused look
Kanda hissed in annoyance. "What the hell happened to the bean sprout?! You will tell me. Now." he demanded.
"Ka-what happened?" Komui stuttered, fixing his hat that had fallen crooked from his little journey onto the floor. He then climbed back into his chair and looked at Kanda with a concerned expression.
"Answer my question first." Kanda ordered, his gaze intensifying each second.
Komui hesitated for a moment before finding what information would suffice for the samurai.
"...Well nothing as far as I know. Allen-kun had his weekly talk with Inspector Leverrier." he paused for a moment, tapping his right index finger on his chin thoughtfully, Kanda was already connecting the dots. Leverrier. Of course he would be behind it.
"...Now that I recall, they talked longer than usual today...and I haven't seen hide or tail of Allen-kun since this morning." Komui finished.
That was it.
Kanda whirled around and stormed out of the room, Lenalee looked over at her brother one last time before running out of the room after Kanda, easily beating his fast paced walk and coming up beside him as he glided down the halls.
"Kanda, what's going on?" Lenalee asked as she walked--well, ran with the samurai. She noticed an exorcist uniform in Kanda's arms, though she couldn't tell who it belonged to, that made her worry even more.
"The idiot left." was all that Kanda said, hissing loudly as he turned sharply down another hallway. Lenalee followed him expertly.
"Who left? Where are we going?" she asked, her heart in her throat.
"Che! The damned Moyashi left! L.E.F.T." his anger peaked. After a moment the samurai added quietly, almost to himself. "I'm going to bring his ass back here."
Kanda glanced over at Lenalee after another moment of simply rushing down the hallways.
"We're going to find that bastard dog of Central." he cursed under his breath. Kanda suddenly lunged onto a passing by finder, grabbing the young man by the collar and unsheathing Mugen in a flash, pressing the blade against the finder's neck. The finder let out a strangled cry then clenched his mouth shut, too afraid to talk now that the blade of a sword was against his neck.
"Where is Leverrier? Tell me. Now. Unless you want to lose your head." Kanda threatened, his eyes burning into the finders very soul. Lenalee slowed to a stop and protested as the event unfolded, but she made no physical move to stop Kanda.
"I-I don't…know! I'm new here!! Please don't kill me!" the man begged. Kanda released his hold on the collar of the finders shirt and scoffed in disgust. Begging to be spared always caused the samurai to hate the finders even more. They were so useless and helpless. After those thoughts passed Kanda turned swiftly, Mugen still drawn, and continued down the hallway.
Another finder was walking down the hall as well, and Kanda barely gave the man enough time to figure out what hit him, for within seconds he was pinned against the nearby wall of the hallway, the sword of an angry samurai inches away from his neck.
"Where is Leverrier?!" Kanda ordered once more, his voice on the verge of cracking. Lenalee could tell the samurai was very anxious. She was too. They simply had to figure out why Allen left and get him back as soon as possible.
The finder trembled, then suddenly went limp in Kanda's grip. The samurai made an odd sound of annoyance and released his hold on the mans shirt, causing the finder to hit the ground with a light thud.
"Damned guy fainted." Kanda said harshly, turning immediately to seek out another victim to hopefully get information from. All the while the samurai felt a strong pounding in his chest. Every second that went on without knowing what happened with Allen, every second of not knowing where he was…It was killing him. Burning his chest from the inside.
An unprepared Lavi was the next victim as Kanda brandished Mugen, managing to pin the flailing Bookman in training to a nearby wall by piercing the blade through the fabric of Lavi's shirt.
"Where is Leverrier?! Tell me. I know you know too, you idiotic rabbit." Kanda hissed out, leaning closer to Lavi in order to get his point across, Mugen holding Lavi in place.
"I-I uh… Why do you need to see Leverrier?" Lavi asked innocently, not denying that he knew.
"Don't f*ck with me damn it! You're a bookman for gods sake! You should be aware of why the hell I need to see him! He did something to the Moyashi!" Kanda yelled, not quite himself at the moment. Lenalee only watched, shocked at Kanda's rising voice.
"Alright, alright! Don't get so impatient, Yuu~!" Lavi said with a grin, this caused Kanda to tense even more and turn the blade of Mugen to an angle where he could slice through Lavi easier.
"Don't call me by my first name damn it. Now hurry up."
After Lavi managed to squeak out the whereabouts of Leverrier Kanda did not hesitate to march off towards that direction. Lavi stayed behind, savoring his life that had been spared.
Kanda ran swiftly down the halls, hugging the wall and skidding slightly as he swung around turns, reaching the destination in a matter of seconds.
Lavi: "Leverrier should be heading towards the Ark Room any minute now. If you go down the hall that leads to Hevalaska's chamber you'll probably run into him."
Kanda noticed that just down the current hall he was running through stood a huddle of black cloaked central guards, along with a man standing within the huddle.
Leverrier.
Wasting no time, Kanda leapt forward once he was at a good distance and pushed his way through the guards 'barrier', grabbing Leverrier by his collar and placing Mugen's tip at the mans throat.
"What the HELL did you do to Allen Walker?!" Kanda demanded, a pained look in his sapphire eyes. Lenalee caught up to Kanda and glared at Leverrier as well, not only because of what the man had done to Allen, but for her own experiences with the man.
Leverrier's eyes reflected only a fraction of fear before a smirk formed, washing it away. Kanda began to feel uneasy, and pressed the tip of Mugen against the mans neck dangerously, causing a trail of blood to form. At that moment all the guards that had been surrounding the central officer had their own weapons drawn and pointed at the samurais neck. Reinforcements came and also surrounded Lenalee, who was about to activate her innocence to assist Kanda.
"Why, all I did was give him two choices. Apparently he made his choice."
Kanda narrowed his eyes, completely un-phased by the weapons pointed at his own throat, and only focused on Leverrier.
"Now, if you would be so kind as to release me, exorcist, I have a new ark to explore." Leverrier said with a smug look. Kanda had the strong urge to punch the man senseless, but he held that back for later, at least till after he found out what exactly he made Allen chose to cause the boy to flee the Order…and…
Why he was so…right before he left.
It was as if he was condemning himself to loneliness.
…bastard. Kanda glared at the man with all of his might.
"I demand to know what poison you gave him as options and if you don't f*cking tell me now, I swear I'll slit your goddamned throat open and I don't give a shit what your guard do to me afterwards." Kanda declared, completely prepared to see it through, and do even more to Leverrier if he didn't get answers right away.
"Oh? We created you, Yuu Kanda. We can easily destroy you." Leverrier hissed out, then suddenly looked over at one of the guards.
"You. Go into Kanda's room and locate his life force." the guard nodded and left, then Leverrier turned to look at another guard, all the while ignoring the tip of Mugen temporarily, which pissed Kanda off even more.
"You. If anything happens to me contact the guard that has Kanda's life force via golem and tell him to take off three petals." the guard nodded and proceeded in readying a golem. Kanda flinched but then regained his composure.
That doesn't matter anymore…
An image of Allen flashed through the samurais mind. The boy, out somewhere in the world, alone and confused. Broken. It made Kanda's heart ache. Nothing else mattered anymore.
Just stay alive until I find you, Baka Moyashi…
"You think...something as trivial as THAT would stop me?!" Kanda asked, activating Mugen without the usually needed finger-swipe down the blade. The metal glowed a brilliant blue, being surrounded by a sharp flowing aura.
"Just. Tell. Me. Now." the samurai ordered darkly, then added in a dangerously mocking tone. "Do you realize? By the time those guards could kill me I'd already have you cut to mere ribbons. Where would your power be then?"
Leverrier raised an eyebrow. Kanda clenched his teeth together.
"If you insist. Since we were getting nowhere with simple questions, and that it was becoming obvious that the boy would break soon, I simply told him he had two choices."
Leverrier paused for a moment, obviously savoring the moment.
"One was to be locked up and wait for him to lose against the Noah in him, with the possibility of us not being able to contain it. Or the second choice, which was to hand over his powers to me, and leave the order and never come back in order to keep the Black Order safe for when he turns into a Noah." A grin formed on the central officers face, Kanda already knew what was coming but it made his blood boil all the same.
"He chose the second one." was all that Leverrier said, a large triumphant grin on his face.
There was a long silence, Kanda simply stared at the man, like an awkward bomb that everyone knows is about to go off, but they don't bother trying to do anything, for its futile. It'll explode.
And Kanda Yuu did just that.
Leverrier found himself being thrown into the ground by the hand that had been holding his collar to keep him still. The impact of the floor with his head dazed him for a moment, and Kanda took that opportunity to stab downwards with his sword at the inspectors head. The samurai missed it purposely by the width of a pin, the blue aura of Mugen slicing through the skin on Leverrier's cheek. The sword was now lodged in the ground right beside Leverrier's head.
"Che…" Kanda hissed out and leaned forward slightly on the hilt of his sword, looming over Leverrier.
"You…bastard!! You mentally ruined innocent boy and forced him to choose between two choices that…Aren't even real!! He has other options then that damn it!" Kanda huffed heavily. "Be thankful I didn't kill you, you foul rat."
At that, the samurai easily pulled Mugen from out of the ground and deactivated it, sheathing the blade and straightening up fully, then added quietly, threateningly.
"…I'll let Allen do that himself."
After having most…well…half of his anger turned into words, Kanda turned swiftly and brushed aside the blades of the guards weapons which had been pointed at his neck the entire time. They most likely didn't do anything to stop Kanda once he activated his innocence because normal weapons wouldn't stand a chance against Mugen. Kanda understood that. He then walked away from the scene, hissing out to Lenalee as he passes her.
"Che. We're leaving."
Lenalee only nodded, a worried look in her eyes as she followed Kanda down the hallway. She spared a glance behind her in time to catch Leverrier standing up slowly and holding the small wound on his cheek with a gloved hand carefully, glaring back at the two. Their eyes met and Lenalee felt a sudden chill run down her spine.
He was smiling.
Lenalee returned her gaze forward, even more worried now. "So how will we find Allen? He could be anywhere…" Lenalee asked, finding her voice.
"Che. Simple. We start looking." Kanda said over his shoulder. Lenalee couldn't help but let a small smile of determination form.
"Right."
Without warning Kanda jolted to a stop, gasping in a short breath, one hand coming up to grasp his chest where his tattoo resided. The samurai instantly knew what was happening.
"Sh-Shit.…"
Kanda felt his heart beat heavily once and his widened in shock and pain, pupils turning to dots and veins appearing around his eyes.
Another heavy heart beat caused the burning hot feeling to leave his veins, turning them ice cold.
A final painfully heavy heart beat sounded through the samurai's body, Kanda did all he could to hold back a groan of pain, holding onto the nearest wall for support. By now the tattoo that resided beneath Kanda's uniform would be visible slightly, having snaked up his neck and partially down his left arm. Lenalee rushed over to him, grabbing one of his arms in a worried act, trying to help him bear whatever was happening to him.
"D-damn it…"
So they plucked off three petals anyways…eh?
Kanda let out a long breath, trying to regain his composure, however the aching and weakness did not leave, after all, three petals were equivalent to three lives. Kanda felt as if all his energy was just drained.
No…no time to be weak… I need to find Allen…
With that mindset, Kanda shrugged Lenalee off him the best he could, gently of course, then returned to running off towards his room, determined to set out immediately and look for Allen.

Use me as you will,
Pull my strings just for a thrill,
And I know I'll be ok,
Though my skies are turning gray…
I will never let you fall,
I'll stand up with you forever.
I'll be there for you through it all,
Even if saving you sends me to heaven.

I feel bad for Kanda, poor guy, got three petals plucked and is having some strong separation anxiety going on XD
And the Allen hunt begins! Kyaaa mah BaKanda is so romantically heroic! XD 3 anyways, this is so fun to covert from rp to a story, I hope I'm making you as epic as you were in the rp, mah BaKanda, though its truly hard to capture your greatness ~fan girls~ X3
I hope I can keep up this sort of pace, an update each week or two, that'll be great. I hope you guys can bear with me whenever I don't update when I should, I promise you I will never abandon this story!
Oh and by the way, the song lyrics at the end of each chapter are supposed to convey the feeling of a certain person in said chapter. So for instance, last chapter the song Broken by Seether with Amy Lee was supposed to show how Kanda felt incomplete without Allen. This chapter, well, you figure it out, I'll give you a hint, tis Kanda's POV again. X3
(Ps: all the songs I post at the end of each chapter are really epic and full of Yullen greatness! Check them out if you're bored or anything. They're what I listen to as I write this story)
~Ulqy-chan ish OUT, oh and DUN KILL ME FOR HURTING KANDA D: if you are mad at me now...oh boy...wait till you see what happens to Allen *epic sweatdrop/fear* ....
