Lavi stared at the note in disbelief.
I'm sorry, Lavi. I just couldn't take it anymore. I'll find a way to contact you once I get settled. Don't worry, alright?
"Do you believe me now?" Cross asked from where he leaned on the door frame. Lavi nodded slowly and ripped the note into small pieces so Cross couldn't read it. He looked at Lavi curiously as he did so then took a long drag from his cigarette.
"I'll be going." Lavi stated and brushed past Cross who made not effort to move out of his way. Lavi slammed the front door closed and shoved the ripped paper into his pocket. He released a sigh and began his journey back to his apartment.
Kanda sunk his fangs into Allen's flesh. Allen yelped in pain as the fangs pierced his flesh. Kanda drank greedily. He loved Allen's blood, it was different than others, more sweet, so pure compared to the others of this world. Allen yanked his ponytail to tell Kanda to stop. Kanda understood and removed his fangs. He licked the blood from his lips and handed Allen something to stop the bleeding. He knew he couldn't keep this up for long, one day he'd lose control and drink every last drop.
"We can't keep doing this." Kanda stated and looked down at Allen with a frown.
"We've only just arrived in this town, and I'm not being driven out because you went on a mass murdering spree like you did in the city. There aren't as many people here and they'll eventually link two and two together." Allen replied throwing the bloodied rag into the trash.
"It wasn't a mass murdering spree!" Kanda defended and Allen sighed.
"Well, I'm just glad you're not the one who killed my best friend, if you did I'd kill even joking, I'd chain you to a pole during the day and watch you burst into flames. So, I hope you're not lying about it." Allen smiled
"Yeah, that wasn't me, so don't chain me to a pole. Alright?"
"You're getting really defensive about it." Allen stated, curious to why he was getting so defensive about the topic.
"I'm not getting defensive!"
"You're getting super defensive about it. Don't tell me? You did didn't you?!" Allen questioned. Kanda gave a slow nod. "I can't believe you lied to me! What the fuck? Just what the fuck."
"Allen, I'm sorry. It was after I brought you back to the apartment, and I had no idea it was someone you knew. Please, forgive me." Kanda pleaded and Allen glared at him.
"Get out!" Allen said turning to the window, and pulling the curtains to the side to look out. The dim light in the room was beginning to get on his nerves. Kanda backed away from the area as the light flowed in.
"But it's the middle of the day." Kanda retorted
"Fine! I'll go." Allen declared opening the curtains all the way, making Kanda jump to the shadows of the far wall. Allen walked past and opened the door, grabbed his money from the table and slammed the door shut behind him.
Allen walked through the lobby not even stopping to mutter a hello back to the inn keepers, he just wanted to get out of that place. This was the fourth inn. They'd been at this particular one three days, nothing was familiar yet. Allen stalked down the street, still angry. Allen turned off the main road and headed into the forest that surrounded the city.
Allen walked into the forest thicket and hummed to himself as he did. He found a clearing and looked up at the clear blue skies above. Allen sat beneath a towering tree and let his head rest against the trunk. Allen closed his eyes and wiped away the tears that slid down his cheek.
"How could I be so stupid! Heh...I just met him and I let him drink my blood, and stay at my place, and I trusted that dumb ass vampire, and he lied to me, and killed one of my best friends. Why am I always so stupid? Stupid. Stupid! STUPID!" Allen yelled at himself, more pissed at himself than warm glow that shown through Allen's eye lids was blocked, and Allen slowly opened his eyes. Before him stood a man, who smiled largely at Allen. Allen could feel his heart skip a beat as he studied the man before him. It was him, the man who kills him. Allen gulped and slowly stood.
"Can I help you?" Allen asked, trying to keep his voice from shaking as he did so. The Tyki's smile grew.
"Where is he?" He asked. Allen let his eyes widened, that was all the proof he needed. Allen took his chance and kicked Tyki's feet out. He ran, backtracking as best as he could. Allen stumbled onto the main road and rushed past the bustle. The sounds of the city were silent except for the clicking of Tyki's expensive shoes. Allen turned into an ally way and hopped the fence hoping that it would slow the vampire down. It didn't and Allen was met with a dead-end. Tyki smiled wickedly and slammed a hand onto the wall next to Allen's head.
"You want Kanda right, Tyki. If I don't give him over you'll kill me, and if I do you'll still kill me. So, might as well get a meal out of me right?" Allen stated, unzipping his hoodie and pulling down the collar of his T-shirt. Tyki made no movement, this being the first time someone told him to kill them. After a minute Allen let his collar fall back into place and brushed past Tyki. Tyki grabbed his arm and pulled him back.
"Hmm...You're smarter than you look. I thought I could confuse you with that question and then the chance to run." Allen stated with a smirk, trying to keep his composure.
"You put the offer out, no take backs." Tyki said and he ripped the collar from Allen's shirt. Allen protested as he was shoved into the brick wall. Allen went wide eyed a Tyki's hand covered his mouth. The split second Tyki admired Allen's scars felt like an eternity and Allen wished it would end soon.
Allen let out a small yelp as Tyki bit into his flesh. The blood began to flow once more and Allen beat his fists against Tyki's chest in protest. They were ignored and Allen let his arms fall limply to his sides. Tyki removed his fangs from the quickly dying boy and bit into his wrist. Opening Allen's mouth, Tyki let his blood drop in. He willed the dying boy to swallow the blood. Allen felt himself slip into unconsciousness. Tyki pushed Allen into the shade of the tall buildings.
"Another strange one to add to the collection." Tyki said to himself as he left the ally way and walked into the sunlight.
Thank god for Road's spells.
