Kim: I don't need tissues! *glomps*
Lavi & Kanda: O.O
Kim: I love you guys so I made this chapter more than twice as long as the last one!
Allen: *being squeezed to death* but...the last one...was really...short!
Kim: I know but it's hard to write long chapters sometimes. Plus I really wanna try to do cliffhangers!
Kanda: Trying new things on your first story...baka
Kim: *shrugs* Allen-kun! Do the disclaimer!
Allen: *sighs* InvaderKimofExorcismandAlchemy doesn't own D. Gray-Man.
Kim: YAY *glomps again*
"Lavi, get over here!" Allen said, panicking.
"What's up? What's wrong with her?" He saw the blood that was now dripping onto the street. "We gotta get her out of here" Lavi grabbed the trembling girl and told Allen to hang onto the handle of his hammer. "Big hammer, little hammer, extend, extend, EXTEND!"
They found an old house that seemed abandoned. Allen knocked on the door but it opened by itself.
"Lavi, let's bring her in here!"
Lavi carried her inside and laid her on a dusty couch. He had laid her on her side so that they could try to find out what was wrong with her.
"Let's take off her coat. Maybe we could see what's happening to her," Allen said.
The girl whimpered as they tried to pull her coat. Allen noticed how her hair was covered in blood. It would have reached her lower back if it wasn't up in a ponytail. He wished that he could see what color it was, but the blood made it difficult. Stop thinking about how she looks and find a way to stop the bleeding! He mentally slapped himself for getting distracted.
"Allen, you'd better get a look at this,"
Allen turned his head and saw two bloody bumps sticking out of her back. He ran through the house to find some rags. He needed to clean up the blood and see what those bumps were.
He ran back and threw a few rags to Lavi.
"Clean up the blood!" Allen demanded. He was cleaning the bumps when he saw a bloody, black feather fall to the floor. He dropped the rags.
"She's growing wings," Lavi whispered.
"Lavi, keep an eye on her."
"Go on. Take a walk and clear your head."
Allen only nodded as he walked out the door. He started walking down the street, but stopped when he saw an empty yard without the home that was obviously there years before. He looked to the house next to it-the one Lavi was currently in-and saw scorch marks on the side. There had been a fire. He saw a cross, flat on the ground, made of stones. He walked over to it and saw a tablet in the ground.
Here lies Calvin Rich
Brother, son, friend
R.I.P
Why has he seen so much death? Why must he be tortured in this way? He was about to scold himself for asking such a dumb question when he heard the girl scream again. He ran back into the house to see what was wrong. Allen knelt beside the couch, watching helplessly as the blood flowed from her back and her wings pushed themselves out. She was screaming in agony for an hour before one final scream ripped its way through her raw throat and her wings had grown in completely.
"Let's just let her rest," Lavi told Allen when he tried to clean up the blood. They put a blanket on her and slept on the floor.
The next day, Allen woke to find the girl had gone. He walked outside to look for her and found her by the stone cross.
"Do you know Calvin?" He asked, startling her.
"Cal was my brother. He fell ill many times and couldn't leave home. I was out with my father, getting medicine for him, when someone set fire to our house. I came home to find ashes. I was too late," she said, tears in her eyes.
"What happened to your father?"
"Those monsters came on that day and killed o third of the town. My father included," her tears stared falling when she said this.
"Let's go inside," Allen didn't want to see her cry anymore. They walked into the abandoned house to find Lavi still asleep. "Lavi, wake up!"
"Hmm…? Oh good morning beautiful! I don't think we properly introduced ourselves. I'm Lavi, and this is Allen. How do you do?"
"I'm Sylvia. Call me Syl. It's nice to meet you both. May I ask why you brought me here? I remember you saving me, an intense pain in my back, and then I woke up here."
"You were screaming and drawing a crowd. Plus it would be best to have shelter and some way to help you in case you needed medical attention," Allen said.
"Do you know why I was in so much pain?"
"Uh, Syl, you may want to sit down," Allen said. When she did, he told her, "Last night we witnessed wings grow from your back." Sylvia looked as if she didn't believe him, until she saw herself in a broken mirror across the room. She tried moving them and, to her surprise, they smacked Lavi in the face.
"Hey, watch it!"
"Sorry, Lavi."
"Where do you live now, Syl?" Allen asked
"When my home burned down, my dad's best friend took me in. He owns the inn with his family."
"Can we go see him? We could call Komui when we get there," Allen said.
"Sure. Hand me my coat and we'll leave."
Kim: We finally know the mystery girl's name!
Syl: It's about time.
Kim: Meh :) I like smiles!
Lavi: I think they know that .
Kim: Whatever. I hope you enjoyed this! This took forever because my sister kicked me off the computer and my keyboard kept messing up.
Allen: Can I leave?
Kim: NO! Please leave a review to tell me how I'm doing :) Just curious, but is anyone else tired of seeing all of the Yullen on this site? I'm not trying to offend anyone, but it really bugs me. Thanks and see you (hopefully) soon!
