It was ten minutes till Midnight. Allen was desperate to find Kanda. The cemetery was bigger than they had originally thought. One grave stood out above all the others. But it was plain and you could barely see the name. It was the kind of grave that your eyes would glaze over. It was the type that would always go unnoticed. But Allen couldn't help but stop.
"Samuel Clemens." He muttered. Lavi noticed that Allen had stopped.
"Hey! That's Mark Twain!" Lavi smiled.
"Who?" Lenalee asked.
"He was a poet/writer."
"Then why does it say Samuel Clemens?"
"That's cuz Samuel is his real name."
"He's the poet of two names! Allen! We found the grave of the poet of two names! Just like in Road's clue!" Lenalee began to jump up and down with excitement. Allen wasn't paying attention to what the other two were saying. It was like he was in a trance. He bent down to touch the gravestone. When he did, a strange force began to pull him closer.
"Allen!" Lavi and Lenalee grabbed Allen just in time before he was sucked into the tiny grave.
Allen could feel himself slowly waking up. When he awoke, he was no longer in the cemetery and the tiny grave wasn't even visible. He was in a dark room. It reminded Allen of Road's dream world from his time in the Rewinding Town. He, Lavi, and Lenalee were chained to the wall.
"What a surprise. I didn't think that you would be able to find me." Road Kamelot. They were in her world. Kneeling on the ground was another person in chains.
Almost recognizable, Kanda had been turned into Road's dress up doll. No longer was she wearing her exorcist coat. Mugen was lying discarded along with her coat by the wall where the others where chained. She was wearing a short-skirted, cleavage revealing Gothic Lolita dress. It was as black as night. You could see a small sliver of her large tattoo. The many laces and bows were whiter than Allen's hair. Road had actually attempted to make Kanda look nice. Her hair was shiny and silky. Obliviously it had been combed recently. Her tail and ears where drooping with embarrassment and tiredness. A studded collar was around her neck. Attached was a chain that was being held by the Noah girl.
"Kanda!" Allen cried. She lifted her head in response.
"Moyashi. Took you long enough." She lightly chuckled.
"Road! Let us go so we can fight you fair and square!" Lenalee demanded.
"I don't think so. You managed to find your samurai princess. But that doesn't mean that you can save her by fighting." Road giggled. She snapped her fingers and the chains disappeared.
"You'll be fighting for her freedom in another way." She gave a sharp tug on the chain and Kanda jerked forward.
"Stop it!" Allen growled. Road threw her head backwards in a fit of creepy laughter.
"You'll have to win her back by solving my maze." With another snap of her fingers, the three exorcists stood in the middle of a very large maze. There was a tall tower with a single window looming above the walls. It was as tall as the headquarters of the Black Order.
"Your princess resides in the tallest tower!" Road's voice sang from the sky. Allen picked up Kanda's coat and Mugen and set off to rescue his one and only princess.
Whoot! Another chapter! Mazes are fun! Except when you get lost.......... Kinda tired. Chapter 7 will be released soon. Hooray for school being closed!!!!!!!!!
It was really funny. I had forgotten Mark Twain's real name. I asked my mom and she gave me an answer. Then I asked my dad. He gave me a different one. Then, we spent about 15 minutes trying to figure it out and how to spell it. So, don't blame me if Samuel Clemens isn't it or if that's not how you spell it. Oh well.
Hope you're enjoying the story so far!
