Chapter 34:

I regained consciousness and slowly blinked my eyes open.

The room was back, like it had been, but there was no Noah. I tried to get up, but the burning sensation in my arms, legs, torso and back convinced me that it was a bad idea. I laid back down in something warm and moist.

It was blood.

I'd been cut up pretty good. Good enough to need stitches in all the places I was cut. I could feel myself loosing body heat as I lost more blood. Not only that, but the blinding white pain from broken bones didn't help much with keeping conscious.

I needed to do something fast.

I sat up, ignoring the pain, took off my coat and my shirt, I activated my innocence and tore my shirt several times.

I wrapped one piece around my arm to stop the bleeding and to put the bone in a more stable position. Thankfully she decided to cut the arm she broke.

I then wrapped my leg and used the final piece to wrap a stick around the broken leg.

I heard a door open.

"And I thought I looked bad." I heard Kanda say from behind me. I turned to look at him. It looked like his shirt and jacket had been burned off. I frowned. As usual, he supported no wounds, due to the fact that he healed quickly.

"Have I ever said that I hate you?"

"A few times." He frowned "Now are you getting up?"

"A little help would be nice. We don't all heal as fast as you." I snapped back at him.

"Che." He walked over and pulled me up roughly. Too roughly, I felt my head get light both from blood loss and blinding white pain in my arm, legs, torso and back. "You look horrible."

"Really?" I whispered sarcastically. "I feel great." I regained my balance and started walking toward the next door. Kanda fell into stride next to me.

We walked through the door and down a long corridor.

We were both silent.

Kanda- well, he's Kanda, he doesn't talk much. And me, well, I was both not a huge talker and I was concentrating on not falling over.

I could feel the blood running down my back. I could feel the blood staining my pants both from the wound on my back and the one on my leg. I was leaving a bloody shoe print I was bleeding so much. On the other side my arm had bled through the cloth and blood was dripping from my fingers.

Not only was there loss of blood to compromise my stability, but the broken leg didn't help much either.

"You should not have fought on your own." Kanda finally stated.

"Like you're one to talk." I growled at him. Couldn't he see I was concentrating?! How long was this corridor anyway?! And damn it- I was hungry!

"I heal quickly. You don't. I'll kill Lavi for letting you fight on your own."

"And I'd have killed him if he did try to fight with me. It was my choice to fight alone. So shut up."

"You don't have to prove yourself. Just because I fight on my own doesn't mean you have to too."

"Yeah," I scoffed, "like you're the reason why I fought alone." Well, he was partly.

We had finally gotten to the end of the corridor and all I wanted was to open the door and drop the conversation. I reached out to grab the door handle, but Kanda smacked it with his sword. I turned and glared at him.

"Then why did you fight the Noah alone?" He demanded.

"Because she killed Gwen, Sol and Tina. Happy?" I shot at him. His eyes narrowed at my attack.

"Che. Stubborn gaki." He spat, sheathing his sword and turning to the door.

"Yeah, I'm the brat." I spat back and opened the door.

What met my eyes made me stop dead in my tracks.

There was a coffin in the middle of the floor with an arm reaching out of it. There was blood everywhere. It looked like whoever had fought, had it worse than me.

Kanda and I made our way to the coffin. I activated my innocence and pulled it open, falling to the ground when I was done. My whole body ached and I felt dizzy. But my mind cleared as I saw what this exorcist looked like.

It was Krory. He was cut up and smashed and pierced in so many places I was shocked that he was still alive. The coffin must have done a hell of a lot of damage too because it was filled with stakes made to pierce the person placed inside it.

Whichever Noah he fought, it had been a cruel one. I got up slowly and went to look at him. He was breathing shallowly. Kanda picked him up and put him on his shoulder and turned to the next door that was in the monument.

"Did you win?"

"Huh?" I said confused.

"Did you beat your Noah?" Kanda repeated, staring at the door.

"No." I blushed. How can you blush when you have blood loss? Kanda smirked.

"I beat mine." He said smugly turning to me. "You're still two steps behind me." I glared.

"I'll beat you, just you wait."

"Oh, but if I wait then you will and I won't let that happen."

"Shut up." I snapped and him. I hated it when he smirked like that. His smirk became smugger as he stepped through the door.

What I wouldn't give to smack him.
