TWP: A little shortie that I didn't bother to write into the nineteenth chapter but then I regretted it and had to write it here.
Disclaimer: I don't own DGM.
"Can you hear me, Allen?" Komuis voice could be heard through the wireless piece in his ear. "Were you able to get inside the Ark?" Allen opened his eyes and looked around confused. The boy looked around in wonder at the city he had entered. Every building and even the ground was white.
"It's very different from what I expected." He said as he began walking, looking for the exit that would send him to Edo.
"Be careful! Don't get yourself lost!" The chief called and Allen sweatdropped as he was reminded that he had a bad habit of getting lost.
"Komui… do you think everyone's okay?" Allen asked and Komui replied calmly. "During times of anxiety, it's best to think of fun things."
"Fun things?" Allen questioned, not really understanding why Komui brought that up.
"You can't think of any? I sure can. For example, when everyone comes back, I'll first say, Welcome home, and give you guys pats on the shoulders, while Lenalee gets a great big hug!" Allen laughed at his Chief's antics and his mouth watered when he heard the next.
"I'll give you lots of food to eat, Allen. Oh, I must make sure Ava gets a lot too! And she will probably ask for alcohol, that girl is one heavy drinker! Oh, and I have to prepare cigarettes too, or she'll kill me! I imagine she has run out by now. Lavi will probably fall asleep the moment he comes back, so I'll need to stand prepared with a blanket. The adults and those that have reached the legal age to drink will toast each other with wine." Allen laughed again, picturing Ava, Krory, Kanda and Lavi drinking with the others and then a drunken Lavi making a fool of himself as usual.
"We'll throw a really huge party, and then we'll fall asleep. It'll be the best. And then, though a little late, Kanda will come in with that sour look on his face and tell us that we're being too loud." Allen nodded. It was all too true.
"You've planned this for some time, haven't you Komui?" He asked and there was laughter on the other side.
"I've planned how to welcome you home, indeed! I even built a new Komurin!" Allen hung his head. Komui's robots always did something stupid. But he grinned as he recalled all the times they had been forced to terminate them. It was funny now that he thought about it. That time when he came back from Martel. He remembered how everyone freaked out by the thought of a macho Lenalee. He also remembered that time when Krory first arrived at the Order. Komurin 4 had made a Lavi-omelet and the mini-version had put make-up on them. He remembered how Ava had almost managed to distribute the proof all over the HQ. The girl really knew how to use her Innocence. Had it not been for Lavi's hammer they probably wouldn't have been able to catch her in time.
"What are you laughing off, Allen?" Komui asked but the boy said it was nothing.
"Please, continue." He said and Komui began to tell him about the new and perfected Komurin. This one was a success no doubt.
'As long as we doesn't give it coffee, I bet.' Allen thought with a shake of his head.
"If we're very lucky, you'll be able to fast travel using the Ark." Komui said excitedly and Allen smiled before it fell. What if the Earl decided to use the Ark to attack the Asian Branch? No, he couldn't let that happen! No matter what, he would protect his friends and home, and they would all get back home in one piece too, so that they could have that party. Because right now, he was really hungry!
TWP: Wow, this was real short too! Didn't imagine that it would turn out this short… anyways, please review this chapter! Or if you find out that you wanted to give one more for the last chapter, you do that here too.
