"Road, promise me you won't tell the Earl, or any other Noah that we met Allen today" said Matt as they returned to the ark.

"How come Matt? The Earl wants to find him" said Road, a little confused. "It would make sense to tell him."

"He will be found eventually on his own, no matter how hard he tries he will be found" said Matt with a serious tone. "And besides, I want to see how things play out."

"What are you planning" Road asked a bit suspicious of Matt.

"Nothing, I'm just curious to see how this will all turn out."

"So what are gonna do now" asked Road.

"You can do whatever you like. I am going to sleep."

"Wait, what? You're going to sleep? But you never sleep."

"That doesn't mean I can't" said Matt, "I just feel very tired for some reason." Matt then waved to Road and walked away.


Matt entered his room and got ready to sleep. Once he lay down and closed his eyes it did not take long before he fell asleep.


Matt opened his eyes to see he was outside. It was pouring rain which irritated him to no end. Then he heard a voice.

"Matt" yelled a voice, he couldn't figure out who it was, the voice yelled his name again, this time it was much clearer to understand. "Matt you need to get up now!"

Matt sat up but noticed something was wrong he looked to his left arm and saw that it was missing.

"What the hell" Matt asked to himself as he looked around. He saw that he was in the middle of a large crater. He then saw the person who was yelling at him. "Tyki what the hell is going on?"

"What are you talking about Matt? It's an all-out war here, we need you to get up and fight already" said Tyki in a calm voice, but Matt could tell that this was a serious situation.

"I don't understand why is there a battle? Why is my arm missing" asked Matt in a state of total confusion.

"You must have hit your head pretty hard" said Tyki extending his arm to help Matt up, who accepted the offer and grabbed his hand. "However, there is no time to explain as for your arm its right over there" Tyki pointed to the edge of the crater. "Now go and reattach it and get back into the battle." Tyki then jump out of the crater. Matt got up and grabbed his arm. He placed his lost limb on his arm and the wound somehow healed. Matt didn't seem to worry about. He then looked up to see several akuma jump over the crater. Matt raised himself out of the ground to see a massive battle. Fire was everywhere as well as there were bodies of finders and exorcists scattered across the ground. He then heard several explosions, Matt turned to where the explosions came from to see several exorcists fighting off akuma. Matt had absolutely no idea what he was going to do but a voice that came from behind him answered his thought.

"So, you're still alive from those attacks? I guess I'll be the one who will finish you off." Matt turned around to see Kanda standing there with two swords in his hands.

"How many times do I have to kill you" Matt said to himself and he transformed into his awakened form. "Prepare yourself exorcist, I will not hold back against you."

"So you're finally going to fight us seriously" Kanda said in a serious tone, "that's good, it would be a shame if you were to be killed so easily." He then lunged at Matt.

Kanda swung his first sword down at Matt who evaded the attack by stepping to the right. Before Matt could counter Kanda's second sword swung at him, which Matt ducked out of the way. Matt seeing a small opening in Kanda's attack thrusts his claw at Kanda but in the blink of an eye Kanda dodged and managed slash Matt's right shoulder. Matt took several jumps away from Kanda. He could feel the wound already healing, but that didn't stop Matt from feeling the pain.

If I can just touch his forehead I can end this and look for the other Noah, Matt thought to himself, and then charged at Kanda. As he charged at Kanda, Matt noticed something off about Kanda.

"Third illusion Sangenskiki" said Kanda and tattoo's formed under his eyes.

"Whatever you are planning I won't allow you to pull it off" yelled Matt as he took a swing at Kanda. Kanda vanished in a blink if an eye. Instinctively, Matt turned around to see Kanda behind him. As the sword made contact Matt vanished. Kanda, not expecting it fell over from his attack. As Kanda was standing up Matt appeared in front of him, and faster than he could react Matt grabbed his face.

"It's time I end this" said Matt, "Destroy!" Kanda's body fell limp and Matt threw the body aside.


Matt blinked and the next thing he knew he was fighting alongside Road near the edge of a cliff. This time however he did not recognize their opponent. Matt saw one of their opponents appear behind Road.

"Road watch out" yelled Matt as he rushed to intercept their foe. Road turned around when Matt yelled to see the enemy turn it's arm into a sword and thrust it at Road. Road closed her eyes, knowing she could not evade the attack. Then she felt something hit her face. She opened her eyes to see Matt standing in the way of the attack, with a blade sticking out of his back in the location of his heart.

"Matt, would you do that" Road asked in horror.

"That's stupid Road because you're my family. You're all that I have left now, and I'll be damned to see you die!" Matt then used his claws to rip the head off the person. Matt stumbled forward as the blade that pierced him fell out. Road grabbed him before he could fall.

"I'll be alright Road, but this fight isn't over." As he said that several figures that looked identical to who they just fought appeared out of the shadows.

"Road, do me a favor" Matt said quietly.

"What is it Matt" said Road preparing for battle.

"At the first chance run, I'll hold them off." Road starred at Matt perplexed.

"What are you talking about Matt? I'm not going to leave you here to die!"

"Yes you will" Matt yelled, "If you're not willing to then I'll force you to leave!" A stone hand grabbed Road and threw her past the approaching enemy. The enemy turned around as if to attack her but a giant fissure broke though the ground cutting them off.

"Sorry, but I'm your opponent not her" said Matt. They turned around and attacked Matt, every one of them turned their arms into weapons. Matt weaved in and out of their attacks taking out many of the incoming attackers. However Matt then felt several spikes pierce several parts of his chest and shoulders. Matt looked over to where Road was now standing.

"I'm sorry" said Matt to himself as he slammed his foot to the ground causing the entire cliff up to the fissure to collapse. Road read Matt's lips and watched in horror as the Matt disappeared from sight as the cliff collapsed. Road screamed and ran to the edge of the new cliff side.

Matt looked down to see where he would land. Realizing that it was the ocean he began to laugh.

"Damn it, to think I would go out like this" said Matt as he closed his eyes and embraced his fate.


Matt's eyes shot open. He was breathing heavily as he began to regain his bearings on reality. As he breathed heavily he felt a hand on his shoulder. He looked over and saw Road standing next to his bed.

"Road, what are you doing here" Matt asked after composing himself.

"I'm here to check on you" Road said with a smile.

"But why?"

"I'm the dreams of Noah, I could tell that your dreams were giving you trouble so I came here to see if I could calm them down. I had really only just arrived before you woke up."

"I see, well thanks for coming then."

"Matt do you want to talk about what you dreamt about?"

"I'd rather not Road, I don't remember any of it really" Matt lied. He remembered every bit of that dream but there was no way he was going to tell anyone. Matt feared that that dream was much more than just a normal dream.

"Are you going to go back to sleep" asked Road accepting his response.

"No, I don't think I'm going to sleep again for a while. I think I like being awake more than sleeping." Said Matt as he got out of bed and began to get ready for the day.

Thanks for reading! Please review. I've been thinking about some locations for the story to visit, I have the next location chosen but the rest is really just a blank as I write on a daily basis. If any of you have a suggestion of where I should go leave a review stating where or just leave me a PM. But enough of my ranting Chapter 21 coming soon!
