Bad Boy Allen
Chapter 36
New Bad News
Allen woke up with the sun shining on his face. He cracked his eyes open, but soon regretted it. He almost went blind because of how bright the sun was. He quickly got up and closed the curtains. "That was one of the worst awakenings ever." he stated.
He turned his head around to look at the door. He could've sworn he heard a knock just a second ago. He should probably check to make sure it was someone, but he wasn't a morning person or a people person for that matter. So he just waited and another knock was heard. Allen just looked around the floor for his shirt he threw on the floor last night. When he found it he picked it up. He then got in his dresser and picked out another outfit. He also got his exorcist uniform.
The knock kept nagging him since the person wouldn't leave. He opened the door and walked right past the person. He walked towards the showers down the hall. "Hey, Allen! Komui wants to see you. Like, right now." Lavi shouted.
"Don't care. I'll go see him when I'm done. If I want to." Allen replied.
Lavi rubbed the side of his head. "At least he's in a good mood. I think."
Allen stopped in front of the washer and put his dirty clothes in it. Including the pants he was wearing. Then he took a hot shower. It took about fifteen minutes give or take. He stepped out of the shower and quickly dressed. He went in front of the mirror and put the towel on his head and began to roughly ruffle his head so he could dry his hair. When he felt satisfied he stopped and put the towel around his neck. He looked in the mirror and just stared at his reflection.
His hair was becoming whiter and whiter everyday. He moved his left hand up to his scar. A lot has changed since last year. The Order. The people. The exorcists. Even Komui has been doing more work. Shocking huh? Allen went over to the washer and put his clothes in the dryer. He waited a few minutes and then he heard a beep come from it. "The mad man messed with it again. Just great." Allen said aloud.
"I wouldn't worry too much about that Allen. Give it five minutes and it'll start up." Tobin said.
"Right." Allen said, but left.
He stopped at his room and put the towel in his room. Allen then absentmindingly walked around. Although he got lost in the end. He randomly opened doors in hopes of finding something or someone to help him. And of course, nothing and no one. Maybe karma is catching up with him. Oh well. Allen continued to stroll through the halls untill he finally got to a familiar door, but it was still different somehow. He just shrugged then opened it.
Smoke came out and the stench of beer. He heard some unpleasant noises and turned his head. Instantly he closed the door. His face felt very, very, very hot at the moment. "Damn Cross. I never wanted to see that." Allen said while walking away quickly.
At least he knows to never open that door again. Ever! So Allen continued to walk. "Marian Cross, Winters Zokolo, Froi Tiedoll, Cloud Nyne, and Allen Walker please report to Supervisor Komui's office immediately. Thank you." Reever said through the intercom.
Allen groaned. He just wanted to left alone today. Guess he's out of luck then. So Allen walked and walked and an hour had gone by. Reever had used the intercom almost twenty times just to repeat the same thing. Allen Walker report to Komui's office now. Allen walked a little more and finally spotted someone. "Beansprout." Kanda said aggravated.
"I don't have time for this." Allen said and walked off.
"Lost again?" Kanda taunted.
"NO!" Allen turned around.
"Where you going?" Kanda asked.
"None of your damn buisness." Allen said.
"Tch, Komui wants you now. Let's go." Kanda ordered.
"Why in the world would I trust you let alone go with you anywhere?" Allen questioned.
"Because you're stupid enough to do so." Kanda stated.
"No, I'm not girly samurai." Allen retorted.
"What'd you call me?" Kanda shouted.
"You heard me." Allen said dumbly as he folded his arms.
Kanda gritted his teeth and glared at Allen. "At least I'm not short." Kanda told him.
"I'm as tall as you bastard!" Allen shouted.
"No, you're almost as tall as me. You're still shorter, beansprout." Kanda stated and began walking off.
Allen glared at him as he walked off. Then he activated his Crown Clown. Kanda sensed an attack coming from behind and got Mugen out. Allen's claw landed on the blade and sparks flew off the blade. Then sparks flew out of their eyes and a fire aroused in the scenery. An all out war began between the two. . . again. Allen tried to hit him and Kanda dodged. Kanda tried to slice Allen in two and Allen dodged. Nothing new. Then again, everything has been getting old.
The battle moved from the hall to a room to the science division and then in front of Komui's office. Where all the exorcists stood outside Komui's door and the generals were inside. "Yuu, Beansprout, stop!" Lavi shouted.
They froze as their attacks collided. Slowly their heads creaked as they looked at Lavi. "You just had to open your big mouth, didn't you?" Bookman said, disappointed in his aprentice.
Suddenly Allen's claw and Kanda's Mugen appeared in front of his throat. "Don't call me that or I'll cut off your head." they said in unison.
Lavi shook his head up and down furiously. They removed their weapons from his throat and continued their battle. Then something came from the ground and held the two in place. They both struggled to get free, but it was all in vain. Allen stopped and looked at the stuff that held them. He reconized it. "Neah." he said aloud.
Neah appeared out of no where and had a frown. "Allen, I'm your father. You could at least call me Dad or Pa. Something!" Neah told him.
"Not a chance." Allen rejoindered.
Komui opened his office door. A strange smile on his face. Allen looked at him and his eyebrow quirked up curiously. He seemed happy. Too happy. "Allen, please come in." Komui said.
Neah released his son. Allen deactivated his innocence. He kept an eye on him, but walked into the office. When he walked in Komui let out an evil laugh just like a mad scientist would. Allen just continued to walk in the office and sat down in a chair. He looked around and saw the four other generals. There was also Bak, Yuza, Leverrier, and Link. While Allen was looking around Lau Jamine came over and pounded him in the head over and over.
Allen tried to grab the monkey, but it kept moving out of his reach. "Lau Jamine, knock it off." Cloud ordered.
Lau Jamine did as told and jumped over on her shoulder. "Damn monkey." Allen muttered.
"How'd you like it?" Cross asked.
"What are you talking about?" Allen questioned.
"My room." Cross simply said.
Allen turned his head away and a very, very small shade of pink was on his face. "That was an accident." Allen stated.
"So you were lost again?" Cross asked while puffing out smoke from his mouth.
The smoke got in Allen's face and he began coughing. "No, I wasn't lost." Allen said.
"Then you knew that was my room. Which means you-" Cross was interrupted by a whack on the head from Cloud.
"Leave the kid alone. He didn't mean to intrude on us." Cloud said.
Allen just looked at them with lazy eyes. He didn't care about their relationship if they had one. He just wanted to get this over with. Zokolo sighed obviously bored. Tiedoll smiled like an idiot. Komui coughed into his hands. "We have reported sightings of Noahs. Apparently they have a plan and are attacking towns and important people. We have counted many dead and that includes our finder, Crow members, and we think they are after you generals as well as the heads of the branches." Komui said, serious.
Allen looked at him and his lips formed a firm line. "We are losing supporters and people in our orginization. And we all fear they might come after you five. We know you are all very strong, but we aren't going to be taking risks. Not this time. Not after what happened last time. We'll be sending you all off to somewhere where no one will find you. You will have at least two to four exorcists accompanying each of you. As well as two finders. We have fixed the golems to do something new and you'll all have one. And that includes you General Cross. You won't just take Timcampy." Komui informed.
"Why do we need other exorcists lower ranked with us?" Cloud asked.
"For protection. They have all grown stronger and will do you some good, but there's another condition for each of you." Komui informed.
"What's the condition?" Tiedoll inquired.
"No invoking your innocence unless you're in an absolute need to emergency situation. Also, fakes names. As for Cross, no more debts and absolutely no s-" Komui was cut off.
"Hell no!" Cross shouted.
"General this is a very important situation! We have already lost enough exorcists and we do not need to lose you as well! Any of you. You're all vital and will be of assitance." Komui countered.
Cross looked at Komui. He was hiding something from everyone. Something very important. "Anything else Supervisor?" Cross asked.
"Try not to make too much contact with anyone. We'll contact you with whatever necessary information. You each have three days until you leave. You pick your own supplies and exorcists. Rest and try not to get stressed. You may all leave now, but Allen, please stay a little longer." Komui said.
Allen lifted his head to look at Komui's face. The four other generals left. "Allen, you are in the most danger. I want to take extra precautions with you." Komui informed.
Allen kept a blank expression on his face and stared at him. "This is your first time with something like this. The other generals have gone through this before. Not exactly the same situation, but similiar. So you'll be doing something a little different. You'll be going to the Asian Branch with Bak. You'll practice training for a few days and then rest. After so much time you'll go to China and meet someone named Anita." Komui told him.
"Anita?" Allen asked.
"Yes, you most likely have heard of her. She almost died a few years ago while helping us. She is actually Cross' lover. Even though he does some things he shouldn't since he is her lover, but anyways, Chaoji used to work for her before he became an exorcist. She is a supporter. She'll be of great service for us. Especially you." Komui said.
"I'm going to China?" Allen queried
"For a certain amount of time. You'll be heading to Japan." Komui informed.
"Are you crazy?" Allen shouted.
"I know what you're thinking, but we have a special branch there. You'll be staying there. You'll be the last person to get to their hideout." Komui told him.
"The Noahs have a hideout there too. You think they wouldnt find me?" Allen responded.
"It's miles away from them. If I didn't think it was safe do you really think I would be sending you there?" Komui replied.
Allen looked into his eyes. "Alright." Allen said.
Allen got up out of the chair and was about to leave when, "Wait another moment Allen." Yuza stopped Allen.
"What now?" Allen said, agitated.
"The Noahs destroyed a few towns. One of which was in Britain. The town was where you, Larae, and her brothers grew up in at the same orphanage. Everyone in town died. That inclued all the kids that were in the Orphanage with you. That means Deontae. Also, Larae, Tobin's, and Derick's parents as well." Yuza said to him.
Allen stared at her disbelievingly. "Who else knows about this?" Allen asked.
"The head generals and all of the Supervisors and everyone in this room. No one else has been informed." Bak answered.
Allen stared at them and stood in the same spot. Komui looked at him with much sympathy. "I'm very sorry Allen." Komui said
Allen left the room. Shadows were formed above his eyes as he tipped his head down. Everyone looked at him when he exited Komui's office. "Allen?" Lenalee asked as she walked towards him.
Just as she touched his shoulder he walked off. Lenalee called after him, but he ignored her. He walked throughout the entire building. He was searching for someone. Three to be exact. He couldn't find them though. He searched every room twice. He stopped to think for a minute. Outside on the beach. Allen turned around and ran down the hall. He pushed some people out of his way or they moved on their own. Some just stood there and he dodged them, but he bumped into a few people.
Allen ran until he found the three on the beach playing with Mulan, Mei Ling, and Timothy. Even Leo and Jean. "Beat it twits." Allen said.
They all looked at him. They all saw how serious he was and were about to ask what was wrong, but Mei Ling's innocence glowed green. She already saw what he was about to say so she grabbed the other kids and pushed them away. Allen watched them until they were completely gone. "Allen, what's going on?" Larae questioned.
Allen looked at her with a sad frown. He looked around and found a gigantic rock. "Come on. You might want to sit down for this. All of you." He said.
The three siblings looked at each other, but did as told. When they all sat down Allen looked at them glumly. "Bracney was destroyed by the Noahs. Everyone died. The villagers, the people at the Orphanage, all the kids that went there. Deontae and your parents." Allen said, oddly his voice soft and gentle.
Larae looked at Tobin and Derick then back at Allen. "Please tell me this is one of your sick jokes." Larae said.
"It's not." Allen responded.
The boys began to cry, but Larae jumped off the rock and ran to the Order. The three boys watched her run off for a second before they chased her. Eventurally they all passed the five kids. "Larae! Larae stop!" they shouted.
Larae didn't listen. She just ran and ran. She pushed many people aside and didn't look back at them to apologize. "Larae!" Allen shouted.
Everone besides Larae looked at Allen. It had been a long time since he called Larae, Larae instead of girlie. Lenalee heard the ruckus and looked at them over the railing. She saw everyone frozen in place except four people. Larae ran into her room and locked the door. Tobin and Derick got there first because Allen stopped. They pounded on her door, but she refused to say anything or open the door.
Everyone watched them as they tried to get Larae to open the door. Allen stood a few feet away from the two brothers and watched them. Then he walked over and the boys looked at him. Allen gently pushed them away from the door and pounded on the door. "Larae open this damn door now." he ordered.
She didn't respond. He pounded one more time then put his head on her door, face down. "Larae, you're not the only one upset. Tobin and Derick feel the same. Even I feel the same. I met you there and I grew up with you. We may have had bad times there, but we have so many good memories. I know how close you were to everyone. Deontae, Sarah, Sarahbeth, Diana, Martin, all of them. But you still have your brothers. You still have the Order and you have me. I'm not the best person for comfort or opinions and stuff like that, but I know when to be serious. I know when you need help." Allen paused.
"I'll miss them as much as you and the others. And I know you were the closest to all of them and that you'll suffer the most, but you're not the only one. I just figured out about it and I came to tell you guys. I know how you were gonna feel, but I wasn't going to keep it from you. I may not be the first person to help you or for you to come to for comfort, but you can at least talk to us. At least let you brothers help you. Larae. . . . . you're not alone." Allen tried reasoning.
Tobin and Derick stared at him. He really has changed. He really cares. They heard a click and the door slowly creaked open. She looked at him with wet eyes. Then she hugged him and cried in his chest. Allen froze for a second, but wrapped his arms around her frail body. "This is the second time Allen. I don't want to lose you or Derick or Tobin. I love all of you. You're all family. Even the Order is my family now, but losing Bracney, I. . " Larae tried to find words, but found none.
Allen looked down at her with soft eyes. He wiped her eyes gently. "Not here. Let's go in your room." Allen whispered.
She nodded and pulled him in. Derick entered after them and Tobin followed. The people on the sidelines stared at the door where they disappered. Allen was getting soft again, but for him to act like that something big had to happen. Lenalee looked at the door with angst and went to look for Komui. He could give her the answers.
The End! Hope you enjoyed it. Please leave a review. Any opinions or advice is welcomed and appreciated. Thanks!
