Ch-4-Elimination Part 3
Mongolia . . .
"Are you sure Rabi will be okay?" asked Allen looking around, this was not near HQ anymore.
"He will be fine, and besides it will keep me from beating him up for a couple of days." The old man grinned.
"That's true." Allen laughed nervously,
Bookman and Allen have been traveling for hours nonstop, to save Allen from Komui's wrath. Traveling all the way to the middle of the desert was no exaggeration. Komui's wrath is like all hell breaking loose. Linali truly had a caring brother, but having her fiancé go all the way to Mongolia, because he didn't approve . . . is a bit much.
"Bookman, where are we now?" After traveling many miles, Allen finally got rid of his disguise, not even Komui could track them that far. Unless he asked some finders to help, but not all finders knew Allen; so Allen hoped.
"Mongolia Allen, come we must hurry."
"But were so far from HQ now."
"Allen . . . that man is a demon in sheep's clothing . . . " Bookman said gravely,
The history Bookman collected, almost burnt to ash thanks to Komui. The harsh reality happened when Linali was twelve. During a mission in Germany, Linali got lost in the forest. Poor Bookman, Rabi and a few finders couldn't find her . . . and it didn't end well . . . until they came back to town. Linali was safe and sound, she found her way back, but Komui did threaten Bookman's manuscripts. Even one as wise as Bookman knows that Komui doesn't bluff when it comes to Linali.
"Just a bit further, Allen."
After about a half hour more of walking, Bookman stopped. They were still in the desert, it seemed like they didn't even go anywhere. Bookman bent down and pulled a handle from within the sand, he began to pull. Opening a secret passage, hidden beneath the desert sands, the passage was a stair way leading underground. Allen was amazed, he then started going down the stairs. Unknown to Allen that the stairs were slippery due to the moisture in the underground passage, to put it simply; Allen fell down the stairs.
Bookman watched as Allen fell down all 14713 steps to the bottom of the cavern, twitching slightly as his fellow exorcist fall down the remaining 14600 steps. Twenty minutes later, Bookman heard a thud, and Allen weakly replying "I'm okay." Bookman shook his head, "I should have warned him they stairs were slippery . . . " he said to himself as he began walking down the stairs.
Allen slowly opened his eyes, after falling down the stairs he fell unconscious. He found himself in a small bed, across from him was a table where Bookman sat; drinking tea. "You're awake now Allen? How are you feeling?"
Allen tried to sit up in bed, but it hurt to move. "I'm fine, just a bit sore."
"You did fall 14713 steps and lived." Bookman reminded him, Allen laughed nervously.
"Do you think I'll be safe from Komui here?" Allen said quickly changing the subject.
Bookman nodded, according to old manuscripts passed down from previous Bookmen, this secret passage has connected Mongolia and the rest of China since ancient times. Ancient meaning when Bookman was still a child, and dinosaurs ruled the Earth. But in truth, the passages connected to, many other tunnels, some leading to Shanghai, Beijing, or the Himalayas. The Black Order wasn't highly familiar with the passages, only the Asian organization in China, had mapped it all out.
"Let us rest." Allen nodded.
---
Allen once again woke up, in a slightly different place. This time, he noticed that he couldn't feel his arms and . . . he was danging from the ceiling. Allen looked around, it was a dark damp room, one torch lit the whole room, but what Allen saw wasn't too comforting. Bloody weapons hanged up on the wall, a few bones on the floor. Two skeletons chained up to his left.
"This is very nice home decorating . . . " Allen thought sarcastically.
Suddenly there was a knock on the door, "Um, come in?" Allen called out.
Komui opened the door, "Komui-san!" Allen said, "He must be here to save me!" Allen thought,
"Actually Allen, I'm not here to save you. I'm here to punish you!" Komui said evilly, "Can Komui read my thoughts?" Allen thought naively,
"No, Allen, I can't read your thoughts." Komui finished. "Now to receive your punishment, for trying to marry Linali!"
"Komui-san!" Allen yelled, suddenly Komui revealed a huge feather that he hid behind his back, Allen instantly shut his trap. Allen was ticklish, not your everyday type of ticklish person, but the ticklish person who has a parasite type innocence!
"Komui-san where's Bookman? And how did you find this place?!" asked Allen,
"I had some finders follow you, and Bookman is being dealt within another room."
Bookman's room . . .
"This way Mr.Bookman." The finder said directing Bookman into a passage leading to the outside.
"I prefer if you direct me, to where Allen Walker is being held." Said Bookman
"Y-yes sir Mr.Bookman!" said another finder,
"I don't know who's worse, Komui or Bookman . . . " whisper one finder to the other, the other nods.
Allen's room . . .
"Prepare yourself Allen!"
"No, anything but that Komui-san!"
The echos of screams filled the caverns, Bookman hurried as fast as he could to rescue Allen from Komui.
"Komui, stop." Allen couldn't help but laugh, the huge feather, was too overwhelming.
"I'm coming Allen."
Allen did his best to invoke, but failed. "The shackles are made of a special material that won't allow you to invoke your innocence. Face it Allen you're doomed!" Komui said through evil laughs,
"Komui-san . . . I will marry Linali, no matter . . . what!" Allen said valiantly through giggles.
Suddenly there was a knock at the door. "Come in!" Both Allen and Komui called, without bothering to just open the door, the intruder kicked the door down, even after knocking . . .
"Do you have any idea, how much it costs to rent this room!" yelled Komui,
"You rented this?" Allen said
"Just to scare you Allen." Said Komui,
"It worked well Komui-san."
"Good . . . anyways! You better be willing to pay for the damage!" Komui barked at the intruder.
"Nii-san you will pay for taking Allen-kun."
"It can't be! Linali?" called Allen,
"I'm so glad I found you Allen-kun."
"Linali! Why did you break down the door?!" cried Komui hugging his sister, Linali pushed him off.
"I wanted to add more action, anyways. Nii-san why are you torturing Allen-kun!"
"Linali you mustn't marry Allen!" cried Komui, "Your still my little sister . . . I won't give you up!" Komui said hugging his sister again.
"Nii-san . . . I'm not a little girl anymore." Komui blinked. Linali was right, she's all grown up now, she isn't the little girl who followed her older brother around anymore.
"Linali."
"Komui-san, I promise I won't hurt Linali. I won't hurt her, for anything." Allen said softly smiling,
"Allen-kun." Linali breathed blushing slightly,
"How can I trust you will take care of my sister?" questioned Komui,
"If I hurt Linali, I'll be betraying our friendship Komui."
Though hard to believe, over the years Allen and Komui became closer friends. Allen became friends with everyone at HQ, even with the Earl gone, The Black Order existed incase a threat like the Earl would arise again. Allen was also dependent, Komui learnt that, over the years. Now was his time to test Allen's trust.
"Allen . . . "
"Yes Komui-san?"
"I-I trust you. But if you hurt Linali, I will kill you." Komui said looking down at the floor,
"I, will take good care of her Komui-san." Allen said smiling, Komui unlocked Allen shackles, releasing him.
"Allen-kun!" Linali said excitedly as she hugged him, "Linali." Allen replied hugging her back, Komui looked away. "I shouldn't be seeing this." He thought as he walked out the room. Allen noticed Komui leave, he quickly peck Linali on the lips, and broke the embrace.
"Komui-san!" Allen called after Komui, whom continued to sulk, down the dark corridor. Komui turned around,
"Allen?"
"Komui-san . . . arigatou." Komui said nothing, the only thing that crossed his mind was, if he made the right choice.
"Allen!" Allen turned around, to see Bookman and Linali follow them, along with two finders.
"Bookman your okay!" cried Allen,
"Of course. But how are you Allen?" asked Bookman
"Komui-san didn't do anything too serious." Allen smiled,
"We should get going."Said Linali, "Me and Allen have a wedding to plan." Allen blushed then nodded.
