If anyone had trouble figuring out who was talking in the last chapter I added the names in ~~ under each line.

Walker's Apprentice

Chapter 7

"Um…Other people!" I heard Danielle yell.

"Looks like there ready." I said.

Jim, the other finder, Leeanlee, and Lavi nodded, and walked over to the space where Kevin and Danielle were. Kevin's head was on Danielle's legs, and Kevin was resting peacefully.

"Why didn't you heal him?" I asked Danielle.

"He wouldn't let me." She said, as if she were going to break into tears.

We all paused for a moment then Leeanlee said, "We would really love to have you as an exorcist, at the order."

"Leeanlee," I said fiercely.

"The order," Danielle asked almost happily.

"Yes, do you know it?" Leeanlee asked.

"No, but I want to go there." Danielle said.

"Allen," Leeanlee said proudly.

"Of course," I said as a spear of pain erupted my thoughts.

"Ah, what was I going to do again?" I asked, scratching the back of my head confused.

"Um…Call Komui." Lavi said.

"Are you alright?" Leeanlee asked.

"Ya, I'm good." I said, "Komui, we need a doctor, and we have a new recruit."

"Ah that's terrific!" Komui yelled.

"Don't forget the doctor now." I said.

"Oh? Who's hurt?" Komui asked, "Is it serious?"

"Kevin, um…to tell you the truth I have no idea." I said.

"Alright I'll send someone over." Komui said, as the ark appeared.

"This is the order?" Danielle asked.

"No, this is just the ark." I said, "It's a short-cut to get to the order."

"Oh," Danielle said, "What about Kevin?"

"Komui's sending a doctor." I said.

"I get to heal him right?" Danielle asked me.

"I don't know," I said, "Wasn't he against you healing him?"

She paused then a doctor came rushing out of the ark.

Danielle was stunned, she didn't move at all.

"General Walker?" The brown-haired doctor asked looking at all the blood on me.

"Yes," I said.

"Are you hurt?" the doctor asked, as another spear stabbed my back.

I winced but said, "No, It's that boy over there."

Danielle clung to Kevin with every fiber in her body. She was covered in Kevin's and my blood.

The doctor looked to where I was pointing and he stopped, and winced.

"Danielle, they want to help Kevin." Leeanlee said to Danielle soothingly.

When Danielle did not back down Leeanlee walked over to her, Leeanlee cut her finger, and crouched near Danielle.

"Danielle can you heal this for me?" Leeanlee asked Danielle.

Danielle nodded and released her grip from Kevin. She placed Kevin fragile head on the ground softly and walked over to Leeanlee.

The doctors moved over to Kevin and put him on the stretcher that they had brought.

A green glow filled Leeanlee's finger. The wound healed quickly. Danielle looked over to where Kevin was. When she saw that he was on the stretcher, she turned to Leeanlee and said, "Kevin's going to be alright, right?"

"Of course, why wouldn't he be?" Leeanlee asked.

Danielle was like a child, even though she looked as old as Kevin did.

Danielle closed her eyes and touched Leeanlee's finger, sighed, then asked, "Why haven't you gone to see a doctor yet?"

"Hm," Leeanlee asked.

"The wound on your lower back," Danielle said.

"Oh, um…that one," Leeanlee said, nervously.

"Can I heal it for you?" Danielle asked.

Kevin was about to enter the ark so Leeanlee said, "Sure."

"Since when did you have a wound?" I demanded.

"It's just a little bruise-ish thing." Leeanlee said.

"Really," Lavi said like he knew something.

Danielle clasped her hands together and the green glow formed in her hands and then reached out to Leeanlee.

Kevin was gone and so I said, "I'd better get back."

"Yes," Lavi said and started to walk with me.

I turned around and said, "Stay here."

Lavi pouted for a moment and then said, "Fine."

I then quickly rushed over into the ark.

I saw the doctors walking out of the ark so I ran up to them.

Kevin was asleep. He looked so calm, like all the pain wasn't there at all.

Kevin's eyes fluttered open and at that moment he started to cry, silently.
