Tainted

Chapter 4!! YAAAAY! Sorry about the delay. If you check my profile you'll find out why...if its still there by then. Anyway, I promised an action packed chapter because of the dely so here it is! Kaguya's first battle. And yes, she kicks ass.

Lavi: Finally some action! I can't wait.

Allen: If the author wants you to wait, you'll wait.

Lavi: Do I have to do EVERYTHING she tells me?

Ihasnolife: Why YES Lavi. YOU DO! I HAVE THE POWER!

Lavi: :gulp: Yes o great one!

Ihasnolife: I am cool.

Disclaimer: If I owned this, I would be beyond super-special-awesome. Unfortunately, I don't own this. So I'm only awesome.

"That's a pretty necklace." Said Allen. "I didn't notice you wearing it before."

I broke my gaze from the window to stare into Allen's gray eyes. Gray…just like mine.

"That's because I just put it on." I said, rolling my eyes. "Mama gave it to me for my 18th birthday."

"Oooh! When was that?" Asked Krory.

"Today."

The car went eerily quiet.

"Oh…" Krory looked down at his hands while Allen bit his lip. Lavi gave an extra loud snore. Yes, he was sound asleep and despite the fact that he was snoring, he looked really adorable.

"Um…well…Happy Birthday." Muttered Krory.

"Thanks."

It went quiet again. The only sounds were my two brothers' and Lavi's snoring.

"Anyway, what kind of explanation did you give to the Mayor Allen?" I asked. "I saw you talking to him while we were buying the train tickets.

Allen looked relieved that the awkward silence was broken. "I told him that your father and your mother argued and…they both fell. We made two graves in your backyard so…um…" He looked at a loss for what else to say.

"Oh…well…thanks. For burying them. I don't know if I...well...you know."

Allen gave me a knowing smile.

"Ya. I know."

Allen, I-" Suddenly the train stopped moving, which sent a now awake Lavi hurtling straight towards me.

"AHHHHH!"

"Sorry."

"WATCH IT!"

"OWWWW!"

"Sorry!"

"DAMN IT!"

"OWWWW!"

"SORRY!"

Everything was in complete disarray. Suitcases had fallen from the racks and no one was sitting where they originally were.

"Sorry Kaguya-chan. Whatever happened was not my fault." Said Lavi.

"I know…and I'm sorry too. Total reflex."

Allen looked up from where he had fallen on the floor and saw one of Kaguya's boots crushing Lavi's face against the window.

"That might leave a mark." I said, rather embarrassed.

"Don't worry about it."

"What happened?" Asked Krory, clutching his head.

The door to the car flung open. Smith stood at the door looking worried.

"Akuma are attacking the train!"

We all looked at each other and got to our feet. The three boys nodded.

"Sister?"

I looked down at my brother's faces.

"I'll be alright." I said with a smile that I hope looked reassuring to them. "Smith here is going to take care of you. DON'T you dare run off, either of you, you got that? Listen to him. I'll be back before you know it."

I give each of them a kiss on the cheek then followed my fellow exorcists outside to my first battle.

"Innocence, activate!" Screamed Allen.

His arm transformed into what can only be described as a giant silver claw. He then began to slash at every Akuma that came close.

"Innocence, activate!" Screamed Krory.

His already large fangs grew sharper and his face became darker, more sinister. He jumped up onto one of the floating balloon-like Akuma and sank his teeth right into it.

Lavi looked at me reassuringly.

"Trust your instincts. You'll do fine."

I just nodded.

"It's like riding a bike." He said, taking out a small hammer. "You never really forget how to do it."

"But…I've never ridden a bike." I muttered. Now probably wasn't the best time to be chit-chatting but…

"Oh…well…remind me to teach you sometime. Ya know, after I see you kick some Akuma butt that is."

I smiled at him.

"Thanks Lavi."

"No problem. Now then, time to get smashing! Innocence, activate! Grow Grow Grow!"

His hammer grew to size of…well lets just say it was REALLY big. With one swing, he took out five Akuma.

"Later!"

He winked at me then ran off.

"Ok, trust my instincts, trust my instincts, trust my instincts, trust my instincts…"

I closed my eyes. I could feel my wings pulsating within my back, as if they sensed the Akuma and were aching to fight against them.

My eyes snapped open. "Innocence, activate!"

The shirt on my back ripped, allowing my wings to extend out. The top of my wings were white but the bottom half were black. I don't know why but they reminded me of black ink on a piece of white paper, tainting it.

My body seemed to already know what to do next. I grabbed onto one of the black feathers and pulled. As I pulled, the feather changed shape. What I held in my hand wasn't a feather, but a three pronged spear aka: a trident.

Well now, this should be interesting.

"Hey! Ugly!"

An Akuma turned toward me, a blank expression on its face.

"Ya you! What the hell is wrong with you? I'm taking a relaxing trip on a train in a fancy car and you have to go and mess that up! You are so gonna pay!"

Now, I'm no expert on Akuma but not only did its expression not change, but it turned its guns on me. Maybe that ugly comment hurt?

The Akuma began fireing its guns. I closed my eyes, jumped up into the air and for the first time, really used my wings. I opened one eye and saw the scene below me.

Yup, I'm flying. SO COOL!

There were about twenty Akuma directly below me. Each exorcist had moved away from the train and was fighting their own group of Akuma.

"I call taking out you guys, ok?"

The Akuma either didn't hear me or didn't give a shit. They just aimed their guns up and me and started shooting.

I swerved around the Akuma's bullets, which according to Krory are poisonous, and dove straight down, landing softly on one of the Akuma. I twirled the weapon in my hand before holding it above my head, the blades pointing up toward the sky.

"Divine Punishment!"

The white clouds above my head darkened and clustered above me. Even the sky itself had turned black. Moments later, lightning bolts struck every Akuma in the vicinity. One lightning bolt struck my trident. The current passed through my body harmlessly before it reached the Akuma I was standing on, who was not as lightning proof as I was.

And just as quickly as it had come, the clouds regained their white color and dispersed. The sky returned to its original pale blue.

The Akuma that were hit were charred black. After a moments pause, they exploded. Before the charred remains of the Akuma I was standing on exploded, I jumped safely onto the ground.

"Consider yourselves smited." Yes, I had to say something cool. Hey, after an attack like that, I AM cool.

"KAGUYA-CHAAAAN!!" I looked over my shoulder and saw my friends running toward me. Lavi was, of course, in-front and was running at me with open arms. When he reached me, he picked me up and began twirling me around.

"Ahhh! Lavi!?"

"You are so COOL Kaguya-chan! I knew you could do it! I told you, right?"

"Yes Lavi, you told me." I said between laughs. "Now put me down!"

Reluctantly, he placed me on the ground.

"Allen?"

He was sitting on a nearby rock, cradling his right arm.

"I-Its fine. There was a l-level two. It bit me is all."

We all crowded around him. I pulled the sleeve up and saw a very deep gash that already looked infected.

"That looks like it hurts." Said Krory.

"Don't you even say it doesn't Allen. Even Yu would cringe with that wound."

"K-Kanda really hates it when you call him that Lavi." Stammered Allen.

"Let him." Replied Lavi with a smile. "It makes life interesting."

"We need to get him to a hospital or at least get him medical attention." Said Krory.

"Don't bother." I said. Why? I don't know, I just knew it wasn't necessary.

"Don't bother?" Repeated Lavi. "Why? What can-"

"Allen, I need you to hold still." I said.

I took one of the white feathers from my wings and placed it on the wound. It began to glow and then was absorbed into his arm.

"What are you doing?" Asked Allen.

I smiled at him.

"Fixing you. Isn't that what friends do?"

He smiled back at me.

"Ya…"

The group just stared at Allen's arm. Then, right before their eyes, it started to repair itself. Muscle and tissue began reforming and reconnecting, fixing the wound. The infection began to dissipate as well. It only took a few seconds before Allen's arm was completely restored.

Allen flexed his arm.

"Well Allen, how does it feel?" Asked Lavi.

"Lets see." Allen ran forward and did a one hand cart-wheel with his fixed arm.

"It's good as new!" Exclaimed Allen. "I've never seen anything like your ability Kaguya."

"Most exorcists are either fighters or defenders, never both." Added Lavi.

"Is that ability a defense?" I asked.

"Well, I mean abilities that don't attack the enemy. Like shielding and healing are defense based. You get my meaning?"

"I think so…"

"Uh…guys." Muttered Krory.

"What?" Replied Allen.

"The train's gone."

"WHAT?!" We all screamed

"Looks like we'll have to catch the next one." Muttered Lavi

"DAMN IT!" Screamed Lavi.

"Um…Kaguya?"

"What Allen?"

"You mind doing one more miracle?"

"What do you mean by t-…OH NO! HELL NO! Not in a MILLION YEARS!"

This birthday...officially sucks!

"Um…Kaguya?" Mumbled Allen. "You alright?"

"I'm flying across the country side, carrying a grown man. Take a guess genius."

Allen's brilliant idea was that if we fly and I carry one or two people, we can meet up with the train at the town where The Order's headquarters resides, Paris.

"Allen isn't grown Kaguya." Laughed Lavi. "He's still a bean-sprout."

"Stop calling me that Lavi!"

"Yu calls you that."

"You're not Yu! Why do you always call people by nicknames they don't even like?"

"Because its fun!"

"Fun for who?"

"Me of course!"

"A lot of good that does."

"Shut up! Will you all SHUT UP!" I screamed.

"Children, please." Said Krory. "Lets try to just calm down."

"NO!" The three of us screamed.

Krory looked dejected. I felt bad but I was just having a really tiring day.

"Look, there it is!" Exclaimed Lavi.

I looked up and saw the Eifel Tower. Thank goodness! Black Order, here I come!

Wow! She really IS COOL! Please review as usual and let me know how I'm doing. Reviews really make me feel good about this fanfic.

Lavi: Don't I make you feel good about this fanfic?

Ihasnolife: Sweetie, you as the main romantic interest MAKE this fanfic. If you weren't amazing, I wouldn't write a fanfic with you as the main focus.

Lavi: True, True. I really am amazing.

Allen: Your inflating his ego again.

Lavi: Can one 'inflate' and ego.

Allen: Don't know, don't care.

Ihasnolife: I think Allen wants more love! Well don't worry cutie, Lenalee is in the next chapter!

Allen: Oh...:blushes: She is?

Lavi: I think Allen is happier now, eh?

Ihasnolife: I agree Lavi. Next time, Kaguya meets everyone.

Lavi: Will she meet Yu?

Ihasnolife: Oh ya. Sparks will fly...

Lavi: S-Sparks?

Ihasnolife: ...from drawn blades of anger.

Lavi: EH? WHAT?

Ihasnolife: All will be made clear...later. Hope you enjoyed it!
