Ok so I'm trying my best to write as much as possible before any writers block hits meh XD lets hope I can do it~! Sorry this chapter took a while to get done, it's been a long week of school.
I noticed a lot of you reviewers are making death threats to Leverrier… *hushes you all* . just bear with him for a little bit longer ok? XD He'll get whats coming soon enough. :X
I'd like to thank all that review! It makes me feel warm and fuzzy inside~! X3 Kyaaa~! *hugs you all* XD!
Oh! I have a good idea for a small activity you readers can do~ If you think you've found the most Yulleny song ever, give me the songs name and the artist (spelling counts big time!) in your reviews and if I think its good, I'll use the lyrics of it at the end of one of my chapters! I'll even mention your name and stuffs~ Though I don't know if any of you guys could possibly outmatch me, I'm the master at finding meaningful Yullen songs~ So anyways, on with the story.
Oh and for those who are wondering… There shall be Allen Walker in this chapter!
I do not own D. Gray-Man.
::~Sacrifice~::
True love is laced with sacrifices.
Chapter Three: A Lonesome Clown
"Have you heard? A strange boy with white hair is staying in that deserted old building! He's as pale as a ghost too. I think he has something to do with those dissapearances!" A woman whispered to her friend.
"Nonsense! Get your facts straight, when he appeared the dissapearances stopped! I think he helped. You and your superstitious mind…" the friend lectured, they were both walking down the stone road/walkway to get some food from the market.
Allen let out a sigh.
So I've become the highlight of today's chatter, huh…
The cursed boy sat on the roof-top of one of the tall buildings, swinging his legs over the side and watching as normal people lived normal lives. The two women were walking right under his perch when they had said that.
Of course, the deserted building those two women had spoken of was an Akuma case that Allen happily embraced.
It temporarily calmed him. It reminded him of the days where Akuma were all that he had, all that he lived and fought for.
…and now they are again.
A small tingling sensation emerged in his left arm, and Allen almost hit himself for being so stupid.
No that's not true. I made a vow and I'll stick to it. Not all of me lives for Akuma. Just half.
"Sorry" Allen said quietly to his Innocence, he was interrupted by a hollow, echo-y voice that sent chills down his spine.
"You know, if people overhear you speaking to your left arm, they'll think you're crazy, boy."
Allen huffed, he really wasn't in the mood for this.
Yeah, well having a voice in my head tell me that fact kinda supports their theory, don't you think, 14th?
There was a defeated silence, and Allen would have smirked victoriously had he not just degraded himself in order to win an argument with the Noah in him.
Allen tore his gaze away from the town below him, turning it upwards at the setting sun.
I'll… I can still help the Order indirectly by taking out Akuma as I travel…I'm still fighting for them.
Just…alone.
Letting out a long sigh, Allen brought his legs back onto the roof and stood up, staring back out towards the sun as it disappeared.
"Time to move locations…" he said to himself under his breath, grabbing his small bag that lay beside him. He then walked away, disappearing along with the light of the sun.

Kanda marched into his room, giving the guard that was sent in to take away three petals quite a scare. The poor guard must have been new if he hadn't known that plucking three petals off the samurais life force would bring the exorcist running, death aura surrounding him, back his way.
The samurai slammed the door behind him and drew Mugen, successfully beating the man into a bloody pulp with the hilt and the flat of the blade. Though Kanda wanted to just slice the mans neck and murder him, he knew that if he did that he wouldn't be welcome in the Order, even worse he'd be arrested.
At the moment, all he really needed to focus on was getting the idiotic Moyashi back in the Order, having central guards chasing after him trying to lock him up wouldn't make the job any easier.
The samurai grabbed the beaten guard by his collar and opened his door again, revealing a very worried, frightened Lenalee outside. He walked all the way out and dumped the guard unceremoniously onto the ground. He walked back in, and Lenalee took small baby steps towards the now open door of Yuu Kanda's room.
"Uh…Kanda…?" she asked quietly, almost afraid to look around in his room. She knew that in all her years of knowing him, his room was his sanctuary, at least that was what she thought it was to him. She felt very rude just being able to see it.
"What?" Kanda asked over his shoulder as he gathered a few things. He glanced over at the hourglass that held the lotus, hissing in annoyance and some defeat at the sight of three freshly plucked petals laying on the bottom. This now left him with only three petals that were sustaining his life.
"Will you…be ok?" Lenalee questioned, eyeing the samurai as he stuffed the hourglass holding his lotus into a bag. There was no way in hell that he was going to leave this here at the mercy of Leverrier.
"Che. I'm fine. Let's go, I have an idea on how to find that idiot Moyashi faster." Kanda said, remembering a certain distressed golden golem that was moping around in the abandoned exorcists room. Lenalee only nodded and stepped back as the samurai came out of his room and closed the door, locking it behind him and placing the key in one of his uniforms many pockets.
Kanda barged into Allen's room once more. Of course, there were still remains of the boy's door in the enterance which Kanda had destroyed to see if the exorcist was inside. As expected, the golden golem dubbed Timcanpy was mourning its masters disappearance by pathetically wailing (silently since it had no voice) on Allen's pillow.
The samurai put down the boy's exorcist coat that he had been holding onto since he saw it folded up, and roughly grabbed Timcanpy by its long tail, dragging it out of the room and down the hallway, towards the waterways that secretly file out exorcists and members from the Order.
"Stop struggling, you're going to help us find the Moyashi." Kanda ordered at the flailing golem. Timcanpy immediately stopped and perked up.
Allen never said anything about not looking for him.
The golden golem nodded its body then fluttered, the samurai releasing its tail. Timcanpy shot ahead and began its job, knowing what Kanda wanted, and started trying to track Allen Walker.
Timcanpy stiffened its body in one direction, it was then that Kanda smirked.
"Ah, so he's in that direction." the samurai whispered, glancing over at Lenalee. She nodded and a small smile formed. With Timcanpy they'd find Allen in no time.

Another explosion lighted up the dark sky, illuminating the boys surroundings temporarily, revealing more orb shaped creatures all around him amongst the crumbled remains of a building. Allen's red eye glowed and zoomed in on the one behind the ambush. A level three hiding within the forest of level ones.
"Stupid boy! You actually think you can beat us!? Hah!" the human-like level three pointed a sharp index finger at Allen. "Fire! Kill him! He has Innocence!"
Allen scoffed and let Crowned Clown do its job, covering him up in its large silky white cape, blocking the rain of bullets fired from the level ones cannons. He then allowed the cape to shift and jolt out into many spikes, stabbing through all the level ones expertly. The level three barely had time to dodge, getting stabbed through one of its slender legs, causing it to curse loudly. The spike that had lodged itself in the level three's leg then wrapped around the pierced limb and pulled it downward towards Allen who readied his claw, slashing horizontally as soon as the helpless Akuma was in range.
Allen watched as the level three's soul drifted off contently, therefore dismissing his left eyes activation. Allen glanced around the darkness even though his eye no longer detected anything to make sure there were no more akuma. Once satisfied, he stored his Innocence away back into the form of a normal, well mostly normal, left arm.
Though Allen was very tired, he knew that if he waited till day to travel, he would have more chances of running into Order members, and he couldn't have that.
I wonder how everyone's doing…
Allen gazed up at the stars, sighing lightly.
Lenalee's probably still serving drinks for the entire order practically…
Lavi is most likely ducking out on his work and then getting punished by an angry Bookman.
Krory would be freaking out over small things, poor guy, I hope someone comforts him in my place. That goes for Miranda too, she'll go suicidal if she isn't watched carefully...
At that the young ex-exorcist sweat dropped and shook his head.
Hah…wow I shouldn't think such things, it's bad luck.
Allen continued his unseen path forward.
Link is probably stumped, Leverrier got rid of his need to take notes. I bet he could write a novel with all that material he has.
And Kanda…I bet he's still eating soba every day.
A small flashback graced Allen of how just before he left, Kanda had bombarded him with a good amount of mitarashi dango.
Well…never mind.
Kanda is probably…causing some poor finder that's new to the Order to have a heart attack out of fear or something.
For some cruel reason the thought of that happening made the boy chuckle.
Yeah I bet he's done that.
The small moment of happiness left Allen, and he continued the rest of his walk without another thought of the Black Order's members in order to save himself from regret
