'NNN!' Allen screamed into the hand that was blocking his mouth. He kicked and struggled, unable to believe this could happen again.
'Stay still and be quiet!' The man hissed, a sadistic smile on his face. 'Ah, to imagine my luck that the school I was going to start teaching at would be the same one that you went. You know….' His voice dropped to a whisper, 'You're one of my favorites. '
Allen made a sobbing noise, his face wet from uncontrollable tears. Then man sighed.
'Anyway, you told the police about me. That's very bad, so of course, you need to be punished. True, they don't even suspect me, but still… And…. If you tell anyone, I'll make sure that redheaded boy you seem to be fond of will have the worse punishment of all.'
Allen's eyes widened in fear and he stopped struggling. The man grinned, and took his hand from Allen's face. He made no noise, so he reached to unbutton the boys shirt. Allen shut his eyes, trembling with fear. He wanted to curl up and die, he didn't want this to happen again, but he couldn't scream, he couldn't let Lavi get hurt because of him...
CRACK!
Allen felt the man's grip slip away after the loud sound, and there was a thump as he hit the floor. Shaking against the wall, he opened his eyes to see him unconscious on the bathroom tiling. Kanda was standing over him, panting angrily and holding a wooden broom that had snapped in half, the two pieces holding together by a few splinters.
'Fucking psycho... ' Kanda dropped the broom on the ground. Allen stared at him, unable to say anything. Suddenly, his energy drained and he slid to the floor. He couldn't stop trembling.
'Oi Beansprout! Are you ok?' Kanda's voice sounded hollow and far-off. 'Beansprout?'
Allen's vision was fading...
'BEANSPROUT!'

'He's ok, I think he just passed out from the shock of it. Poor little thing...'
'H-have you been able to get onto his parents?'
'No, there has been no answer...'
'Wha-what's going on...?' Allen opened his eyes. He was in the dimly lit sick bay of the school.
'Allen!' Lavi was at his side, 'Oh my god, I'm so sorry this happened! I shouldn't have left you alone! I-'
Allen wasn't listening. He just lay there, vaguely aware of Lavi talking hysterically. Then, without warning, tears leaked from the corner of his eyes. He sat up and pulled Lavi into a hug, the redhead's school blazer getting wet as he did.
'Allen...' Lavi touched his hair.
'I wanna go home Lavi, I just really wanna go home...'
'Well we haven't been able to get onto your parent's yet.'
'Then call a taxi, I don't care. Just get me out of here.'
Lavi was silent for a minute, and then sighed heavily.
'Let me go talk to the teachers, I'll see if they'll let you go.'
Allen nodded and Lavi laid him back on the bed. He gazed blankly up at the cool-coloured ceiling. It was warm in this room, but still, Allen couldn't help but shiver.
'Allen' Lavi came back in after an immeasurable amount of time, 'I'm taking you home, Taxi's outside.'
'Y-you don't need to look after me...' Allen's voice was weak.
'Come on...' Lavi grabbed his hand and helped him off the bed. He had to keep his arm around Allen's waist as they walked. Allen stared down, watching their feet move. He was aware of them stopping at the front desk, next to which the sick bay was located. He heard teachers talking, and nodded as though he knew what they were saying. And then there was the crunch of gravel, and they were sitting in the back of the taxi. Lavi told the driver Allen's address, and the white haired boy felt the taxi moving.
'You don't need to look after me.' Allen repeated in a stronger voice.
'I want to.'
'Well maybe I don't want you to. I can be at home by myself. You should go back to school.'
'Allen, you know I can't leave you at home by yourself-'
'Why?!' Allen snapped angrily, 'Cos you don't trust me?! You think I'm crazy. You think I'm going to go psycho and cut myself open!'
'Allen it's got nothing to do with what I think or whether I trust you! Please, calm down and-'
'I'm NOT going to calm down! I DON'T NEED TO FUCKING CALM DOWN!'
'All-' Lavi tried to place a hand on his shoulder, but Allen slapped him away.
'GET YOUR HANDS OFF ME YOU BASTARD!'
'Is your friend alright back there?' The taxi driver was looking at them through the mirror in confusion.
'I think we might need to go to the hospital, could-'
'I'M FINE!' Allen's voice was high. He raised his fist to hit Lavi, and struggled when Lavi caught it. 'I don't need a doctor!'
'H-Hospital please!' Lavi tried to make himself heard over Allen.
'I'M TELLING YOU I DON'T WANT TO GO!'
Allen unbuckled his seat belt, and threw open the car door. The cab screeched to a halt as Allen jumped out and took off into the trees they were driving past.
'SHIT!' Lavi swore. He unbuckled his own belt, hopped out the open door, and took out his wallet and dropped it in the driver's open window to pay for the taxi, then ran after the younger boy.
'Allen wait!'
He called out to Allen as he pushed his way through bushes and trees as quickly as possible. He could hear Allen up ahead, but the sound was fading.
'ALLEN PLEASE!'
'GET LOST! I WANT TO BE ALONE!'
Then the sounds of Allen disappeared all together. Lavi swore again and pushed his way through, not stopping when the branches tore at his skin and scratched his face and ripped his clothes. Somewhere in this wooded area was a lake, and Allen was heading right for it.
'Allen! Allen! ALLEN!' Lavi kept calling as he struggled through. Allen was smaller; he'd be able to get through quicker. He had to find him, he had to stop him. He couldn't risk losing him. He felt a rain drop hit his nose as it started sprinkling from the sky.
'DAMMIT! ALLEEEEEEN!'
