Well I'll add more when the time comes! Please Review, send me a PM, ask questions, etc! Now onto the story!
When I opened my eyes I saw General Tiedoll holding off the akumas but starting to get over whelmed. My cartouche was gone but it combined with my lotus and bell. Walking over the holding out my bell yelling,
"INNOCENTS ACTIVATE!" The lotus bloomed resting on my shirt like a broach as I re- grabbed the bell as the light disappeared.
"Let's end this now!" My bell combined with my lotus making it shine as I took it off my shirt holding it up. "Time Travel Shock Wave!" My lotus shined giving off a lovely chine as all the akuma blew up upon hearing the sound. Then once they all died, the lotus was back as a pin and the bell hanging off my waist, it had a think string around it and my belt loop for easy caring.
"I have to say, your innocents is amazing," General Tiedoll commented, "It was just like a hand drawn picture of an artist and the picture they were painting."
"Thank you, but wait until you see my cousin, his is a real treat." I winked as we continued to make our way to Barcelona.
Roy, Jade, and Rose walked back where Edward was.
"I told you that I would be back."
"I know and I know." Edward commented hugging his wife.
"Atem's cartouche broke so now Midnight is starting to unlock the first stage of her power... I thanked him before he went back to the after life."
"Leon is still in his first stage but he won't be for long." Jade told them as Roy looked proud of his son.
"Well, that's good. Soon we'll have a time traveler and another that can travel between his and 'other' worlds but in this time period." Edward told everyone muttering on the last part as Rose was happily.
"Well good, you guys can drink the antidote, I still have to stay in this form. Edward I know you want to leave but-"
"I have to stay a bit longer I understand, just kick Dante's ass for me if you see her."
"You know it." Roy and Jade drank their share as they changed back to there normal selves.
"We'll be off now - it's time to meet up with our son." Roy told Rose and Edward,
"Very well - we'll meet up soon."
"Right." Then they disappeared. Rose started to hand him the antidote but she stopped went he kissed her.
"Ed," She said pulling back as he sighed and took a drink as he returned back to normal.
"Hurry up Leon! We're going to miss our train!"
"I'm right here!" He jumped on right after Lenalee, ever since their short mission they were side tracked but running and using a bit of there innocents when taking down the akuma that stood in there way.
Once in a booth Leon looked at his newly looking gloves.
"We made it." She commented.
"I know, I'm glad."
"Hey is something wrong?"
"I guess not but I'm worried about Midnight - something in me snapped like she lost her powers for a moment or something."
"Well you can lose sync with your innocents but I'm sure she's okay." Leon nodded,
"Yeah your right. She's so young, I can't help but to worry."
"I understand Midnight is your cousin and your worried. It's like me and the Black Order - I see everyone there as my family and they get hurt - I go and fight the battle as well."
"Yeah, that's good, I hope we find Allen along the way so we can protect the family right?" She smiled and laughed,
"Agreed." As they went on after the train ride they found Allen boarding a boat as they joined. It was nice reunion. "So Allen why don't you tell us about General Cross?"
"Well alright but only because you to need to know what make him tick."
Leon was suspired by Allen's story about him and General Cross's story... he would have never thought half of it was true if someone else told it. What suspired him more that the women who were listening in thought General Cross, was a Sex God, sent from heaven.
"Well you know who would stand up to General Cross and finding his charm annoying if it comes down too it?"
"Oh?" Lenalee question.
"Who?" Allen asked, raising his brow.
"Midnight, Lenalee, my mother and Midnight's mother." Allen and Lenalee fell out of their chair.
"Well," Lenalee stated, "You have a point."
"So how much longer until we reach where we're going?"
"We should be landing soon." Leon nodded, leaning back a bit drinking his order tea.
"Noise," Kanda said as him, Daisya and Marie (Noise) took a boat to Barcelona.
"I heard another Exorcist was finding General Tiedoll and we were going to meet up." Daisya explained as Kanda grunted.
"Who ever it is, he better make sure he doesn't get off track. Marie, what about the akuma in the area?"
"More then I can count and I can count pretty high."
"Then let's hurry! We don't have time to waste. They got a boat and sailed over getting ready for the akuma attack.
"General!" I called as he drew while we walked, "We need to get to Barcelona! Akuma have been attacking there-! Are you listening to me?! What are you drawing!?" I looked over to see a picture of me and Kanda, it was the picture from earlier because my hair was down. It looked like Kanda and I was a couple! OH THAT TICKED ME OFF!
It ticked me off even more even in the corner he drew a picture of us kissing.
"Well, we better go!" He ran off as I ran behind him fuming, threading to burn that drawing book.
When we got there akuma were going off the chain.
"Midnight - use you innocent to attack every akuma you can!"
"Right!" I ripped my bell off as the string wrapped around my wrist.
"Innocents Activate! Time Travel Shock Wave!" Once again raising my bloomed lotus flower high it gave off that chine that blew every akuma up in the area.
"Alright let's-"
"Midnight!" Marie called as I looked over.
"Hey! I thought three was in your group?"
"We're looking for Daisya, something happened to him."
"Let's spilt up."
"General go with Marie and Kanda!" I ran off.
"Be careful!"
"I will!" I called back to Marie as I walked into town, some times I would call out Daisya's name but it seem no use before I could turn back I ran into someone, falling back onto the ground.
"I'm sorry, here take my hand." I grabbed it softly as I stood,
"Thank you." I told him, he was a nice looking guy, 'rich' looking.
"Let me take you out, my treat..." He placed on a smile,
"But, but, but-"
"Trust me, I won't disappoint." He said winking at me, then added, "My name is Tyki - what's yours?"
"Midnight." I said dryly as we walked up to a empty restaurant that was surprisingly opened as we sat down outside.
"So, tell me - do you usually steal guys hearts to easily?"
"Not in the least." I muttered dryly as I ordered a salad as Tyki did the same. We ate in silents and after he paid. Standing, he handed me a small card with his number.
"Call me if you get lonely."
"Sure..." I said, annoyed as he walked off. Once out of sight Kanda walked up.
"Did you find him?"
"No, I was forced on going on a date." He looked annoyed then said,
"Stop messing around! And find him!"
"Alright! It wasn't like I was trying to!" I shouted as Marie called on the black golem, breaking up our small fight... chat?
"I... I found him..."
"Okay we'll be there." Kanda said, as I gave him a questionable look as we ran over to see Daisya dead.
"Oh, my..." I grabbed my shirt, pain entered my heart. "His innocents... is gone.." General Tiedoll was already sobbing a bit as I turned away.
"Let's set him down and let's go with Tiedoll... we still have a job to do." Kanda commented.
"Right." Marie and I told him.
Come back for chapter 13!
