Kanda ran into the waiting room again. He saw Tiedoll and Marie and went straight to them.

"How?" Kanda asked worried.

"We had gone back to the precinct and went in. Daisaya said he forgot something outside. So I started to take the stuff to evidence and suddenly heard a gun shot. Everyone dropped what they were doing and ran outside," Marie explained. Kanda sat in the closest chair near him.

"No one was near him when we got outside. It was most likely a sniper that shot him," Tiedoll said. Kanda seemed to stare off into space. He couldn't believe that someone he really did care for was possibly going to die. He knew he never really showed that he cared for Daisaya. Those that actually did know him, knew he cared.

Miranda slowly walked closer to him and patted him on the back. Kanda looked up at her and she could tell that all this was too much for him. She rubbed his back to try and help calm him down.

"Everything will be okay," she said softly. Kanda looked back down.

"Thanks," he said softly.


Lavi had a bad feeling about Daisaya being shot. He looked over to the chair where Kanda had been sitting and noticed that the notepad was laying in the chair. Lavi figured that it must have fallen out of Kanda's pocket when he stood up. Lavi leaned over and grabbed it. He was glad the pen was with it. He pulled it out off the spiral and flipped open the notepad. Lavi quickly wrote a note to Kanda.

He knew he was going to get in more trouble with what he was about to do, but he didn't care. Lavi swung his legs over the side of the bed and ripped off all the wires that were attached to him. He stood up on shaky legs and took off running out of the room and straight to a staircase.

"Sorry Yuu," Lavi whispered to himself as he ran down the stairs and finally outside.


A nurse ran over to Kanda holding the notepad.

"Officer!" Kanda looked up at her while the others turned to her.

"Yes?" She held out the notepad to Kanda. Kanda took it and realized that he hand left it up in Lavi's room. Kanda looked down at it to see a note quickly written on it.

Sorry, but I can't stay and wait to be arrested. I do confess to everything I have done. I'm sorry that I put you in a spot where you had to choose your duty over me. What I was trying to say was, I really do love you with all my heart Kanda. I hope you'll forgive me one day.

-Lavi

Kanda cussed and held out the notepad to Tiedoll. Tiedoll took it and read the note. He lowered the notepad and looked at Kanda.

"I'll let you make the call this time," said Tiedoll. Kanda sighed and ran a hand through his hair. He looked back at the doors that led to the operating rooms and back to Tiedoll.

"Let him go for now. I'll pursue him another day," Kanda answered. Marie smiled slightly. Already knowing the real reason he wasn't going after him now. A doctor came out and slowly walked over to them. They all looked at him waiting to hear what he would say.

"Officer Daisaya was shot in the chest and we tried everything we could to save him. But he didn't make it. I'm sorry," said the doctor before slowly leaving. Everyone was silent. Not daring to say anything until Miranda broke out crying. Marie stepped closer to her and hugged her.


Lavi had run all the way to the Black Order. Glad that it was in this town.

"Lavi!" yelled a female voice. Lavi looked up and saw Lenalee.

"How did you get free? What happened to your hair?" Lavi asked as he leaned against her for support when she got next to him.

"Allen let me go when Tyki took you to Kanda's apartment. The Earl cut my hair after I helped you to try and escape," she answered helping Lavi to the infirmary. Lavi frowned at that.

"I'm sorry about your hair Lenalee. Why did Allen let you go?"

"I'll tell you later. You need to rest and get better," she said. Lavi nodded as Lenalee got him to the infirmary and laid him on a bed. The head nurse came out of her office and noticed how bad Lavi was. She frowned coming over and checking him out. Lavi looked at Lenalee.

"You're going to be mad at me."

"Why?" asked Lenalee.

"I escaped from the hospital…" Lavi said sheepishly. Lenalee placed both hands on her hips and frowned at him.

"Lavi…" He gave her a small smile.

"Sorry Lenalee." She sighed and shook her head and left. The head nurse patted him on the arm and went back into her office. Lavi sighed and closed his eye and fell asleep.
