Chapter 9 – Asian Branch

When I woke up I was in a bed in a grey room which had me confused since the last thing I remember was being in a bamboo forest my head snapped to the door when someone walked in.

Guy: "Ah good your awake, my name is Wong and I'm the assistant to Bak our branch head here at the Asian Branch."

Kira: "I see, I'm Kira Cross."

He nodded and saw to my wounds before I was allowed to walk around the base but when I saw Allen I immediately ran at him only to tackle him since I didn't know if he was alive or not.

Kira: "Allen!"

Allen: "Hey Kira… why do you have that?"

I looked at him confused before looking to where he was pointing to see that I know had a purple butterfly flying by my head before it landed on my head making me laugh.

Kira: "No idea he was there when I woke up, didn't realize I had him until you said something."

Allen: "The noah who almost killed me creates them."

Kira: "Oh? So it's Tyki's?"

Allen: "Yes… how do you know his name?"

Kira: "It's what I'd been trying to tell you before the akuma attack, I've run into him quite a few times but I managed to get away because of my innocence… which from the looks of things has taken a beating."

I said looking at my innocence to see the hexagonal patterns still on my skin making Allen worried since it meant that I needed a break so I sat and watched Allen battle against the Asian branches guardian Fo. I could see my innocence calming down so I knew a few days of relaxing would help but I knew I couldn't force my recovery. So I asked Wong if there was a martial arts person here who could fight with me so he lead me to another training room only to return with someone else who looked like a muscle man.

Guy: "My name is Michelangelo but you can call me Angel."

Kira: "Kira Cross."

So we started fighting each other with me landing more hits than he did which seemed to anger him but he wasn't able to fight against me really good but he was improving a great deal. It continued like that for weeks until a huge explosion happened making our match stop in the middle as I took off down the hall looking around for what happened. I found Allen being hit with a dark matter beam making his body break down but then he was placed onto Bak's back and taken away while I took off to make sure they would be safe. I started battling the three level three akuma's that had gotten into the branch and knocked them back so Bak could get those who couldn't fight protected.

Level Three: "Ah so that's the exorcist master noah said to be careful of."

Kira: "So I'm guess Tyki is the one who sent you since he's the only one who hasn't been able to kill me yet."

I said taking off for them and using my power to cut one in half making it explode which sent me into the wall, hard, but I pulled myself out before seeing the hexagonal squares show up again.

Kira: "Great just what I don't need."

I said as I took off for another one only to have it throw me into the water when I came up I shook my head seeing the butterfly and Rosa going in circles above my head making me smile. However right then it seemed like Allen had come to a decision to fight against the akuma while Bak went to Fo who had been fighting as Allen and was decaying. I was getting fed up with all this and wanted this all to end quickly I didn't want to see the akuma suffering anymore since I could hear the soul of the akuma calling out for help. It didn't want to continue killing people but the akuma I was facing now was a lot more of a pain in the ass than normal ones and he was making me mad. My body started glowing green with my anger before I attacked the akuma taking off its arm before I started getting even more mad wanting to end this.

Kira: "I need more strength this isn't enough… I have to end this quickly."

As if sensing what I wanted green number's started flying from my body which had me confused as heck while looking at it before I took off after the one I had been fighting only to destroy it. Which had me shocked as I fell into the water again before resurfacing to see Allen destroying his akuma with his new innocence which had been evolved. I was happy for him but then I noticed the other butterfly coming over to me and circling with the other one and Rosa making me sigh looking at them as Allen helped me out of the water. Then we had to have examinations to make sure we were alright I just watched as my two butterflies and Rosa flew around in front of me. Then once we were done I walked out into the hallway while Rosa laid on my head while the two butterflies were on my shoulder's I smiled seeing Allen there as well. Then Wong brought us something to drink making me happy but I was also kinda hungry now so I wanted to find the kitchen which I did shortly after. I smiled watching all three of my little pets dig into their food before we headed out to find Allen who was walking out in his new uniform which made me smile at him. Then I was handed a bag that had mine in it so I went and got changed into it only to come out glaring at them since I was now in a crop top with short shorts with my exorcist coat kinda draped over my shoulders. It was designed so I could also wear it as a coat or a cloak but what had me surprised was that the trim on my cloths was gold instead of silver like Allen's was so I knew this was going to be fun telling dad about it.

Kira: "Why am I in gold?"

Bak: "You've hit critical and passed it Kira so you're a general now."

Kira: "Great… it's going to be fun telling dad…"

Allen started laughing before we went to a room filled with computer's that was playing the battle over and over along with Allen's new innocence the Crown Clown which made him seem like a clown.

Allen: "Oh and Bak I don't care what Komui says I'm going through the ark."

Kira: "Yep, I have a feeling that's where dad is."

I said as we left but I kept smiling at the two butterflies flying around me and knowing I could just keep calling them that so I decided to come up with some names for them.

Kira: "How about Kuro and Violet?"

They bobbed up and down happy before going back to their normal place which made Allen laugh knowing he was happy to see me happy especially after everything that's happened recently. Then just as we were about to enter the ark Allen's new friends came and gave him back his deck of cards that they had made a new ace card for which made me happy for him. We were also wearing yellow trapezoid earing's one for each of us as we walked into the ark smiling the two butterflies were flying around my head while I looked around shocked. Rosa came out and flew around me recording everything for me as we headed further into the ark while talking to Komui from the earing's we had, well Allen was I was looking around for dad. Then the butterflies got my attention and had me go over to a door so I called out to Allen about it so he walked over and we went in nodding at each other. I wound up sitting outside a giant green crystal by myself which had me confused since we were basically in a wasteland right now, but then I saw a flash of green to my left so I turned towards it. I could see a mist of green which meant there were a lot of exorcists here but I also saw the dark matter of the noah's over there but it was only two of them. Then I felt something land in my lap so I looked down to see Lenalee in my lap shocking me before I turned around to see Allen facing off against the Earl.

Kira: "Wow, I never thought I'd see two clowns fighting."

Allen was trying not to laugh while the Earl looked mad before attacking Allen while I tried to wake up Lenalee before a white mist flew over all of us but when it was gone all the noah's were gone. I was shocked when I saw Daisya, Marie, Kanda, Lavi, Krory, a general, and a circle of clocks which confuse me since I hadn't seen an exorcist with that power before. Allen was now blocking an attack from Kanda making me laugh while I called out to them to knock it off since now wasn't the time to fight amongst ourselves.

Kira: "How about we find cover before you two start your little bawl, were sitting ducks out here."

Daisya: "Kira! Bout time you arrived!"

Kira: "Sorry I was busy saving the Asian branch with Allen."

Then we all found cover under the bridge that had once been there and laid Lenalee down on a pillow making me smile at her knowing she'd pushed herself a little too far. We talked for a bit about what happened to us before Lenalee woke up before she started crying while looking at us, however right then a dark matter pooled opened up under Lenalee before expanding to include me. When I tried to jump out dark matter wrapped around my legs making it so I couldn't do anything except fall into the dark matter.

Kira: "Shit! I can't move!"

I could hear everyone yelling around me before I landed yet again in the ark but what I noticed is that Lavi, Krory, Kanda, Allen, and someone else was with us but Allen was keeping them off of Lenalee since I was sitting near the group. Once everyone was awake and looking around we told them that we were in the ark which had everyone looking around shocked. Then my head snapped up when I saw dark matter coming our way which made me groan since I knew who it was and he walked over in his human form. Then he asked how Allen was still alive before he phased his glasses through his head allowing the other's to see his noah form as he started talking about there being no way out other than Roads door. Which would be at the top of the tower so we had to battle our way up there and that the first door wouldn't be guarded before the crumbling started before he left phasing through the rubble. I just shook my head when they hoped it would kill him but I knew better, he had done it a lot when we fought before so we started walking around looking for the door that would get us to the next stage.
