Lenalee cried out as Alice took the bullets that were intended for her. She fell, her Innocence deactivating, landing hard and leaving a decent size crater. Lenalee glared at the Akuma, rage filling her heart. She sprung then, moving faster with the help of the Dark Boots, and she managed to land a solid kick right in the Akuma's chest.
"W-What," the third head exclaimed. It bent down to cover the crack now forming.
"W-we have to get out of here," the second head panicked.
"Yes. Let the Earl fix us," the first head agreed. The Akuma took off, right as Allen and Kanda came into the clearing.
"Get back here," Kanda ordered. The Akuma, of course, would have none of it and it sped off into the forest, returning to its maker. Kanda swore and started after it.
"That's enough Kanda," Lenalee barked, "We have to get Alice to Lavi right now." Allen knelt down beside her.
"What happened?"
"She was hit several times by bullets from that Akuma. We need to get her to Lavi quickly." Alice groaned. Lenalee and Allen looked down worriedly. "Alice? Alice? Are you alright? Can you talk?" Alice managed to smile up at Lenalee before the pain finally made her succumb to darkness.
Geez Alice can't hold her pain... maybe her pain tolerance will increase if she manages to get through this ordeal and into more training as an Exorcist.
Anyway, I hope you're enjoying Corruption! I did a disclaimer a few chapters ago but here it goes again: All original D'Gray-man characters are copy righted and are the property of the manga creator. I'm just a fan borrowing them to show my overly attached fandom!
Also, any reviews are welcomed ^^ I know this chapter sucked but I really had a blank when trying to get through this scene. I hope the next chapter makes up for it though!
