Right. Hi
Chapter five: Side effect
Ayume slowly slid down to the floor panting hard. Allen ran up to her.
"Ayume, are you okay?" He asked her. Natsu and Timcanpy looking down at the exhausted girl.
"yeah." Ayume said still panting hard. "Just tired." Lavi, slowly stood up shaking his head, there was a red star on his stomach, but slowly it started to fade away.
"Whoa!" Lavi said when he saw the sight of the church.
"What I'd miss?" Lavi asked when he saw the Allen leaning over Ayume.
"Not much. Get the Innocence, it's in the middle of the cross, in the circle part." Ayume said.
"If anything, I think you'll be able to break the metal if it comes down to it." Ayume continued. Beads of sweat started to roll down her face, and her heart was pounding as if she did five marathons in a row.
"Okay." Lavi said as he entered the back room, closing the door behind him.
"Are you sure you're okay?" Allen asked Ayume again. She half heard him. She smiled. Damn it! Natsu was right, I shouldn't have tried that until I was sure that was the end of them. Now it feels as if I'm out of energy. Ayume thought.
"Don't worry, I'm fine really." She said, slowly she began to black out.
"Ayume?" Allen asked, when her body when a bit limp. She fainted.
"Ayume!" Allen yelled again.
"Stupid girl, don't worry Allen. This usually happens to her when she over uses her Innocence, since it's connected to her energy. She just getting some rest." Natsu explain.
XOXOXOXO
The sun was setting, and most of the snow had melted once Lavi toke the Innocence. Allen ended up having to give Ayume a piggyback ride back to town, since she was asleep. Lavi would have done it if Natsu didn't threaten Lavi with putting his hair on fire if he touched her. Most of people were still in their house, some were out talking about the abnormal weather before. Natsu was carrying Ayume's hat, leading the way.
"So lizard, were are we going?" Lavi asked Natsu, who was doing his best to ignore that lizard comment.
"Just to a nice little hotel room that Ayume and I are staying in right now." Natsu said. "You can put her in the bed when we get there, Allen."
"Alright." Allen said.
Lavi was laughing as hard as he could. Natsu, was desperately trying to turn the key to open the door, no luck. Several times, Allen offered to do it for him, but Natsu refused. Lavi right now was on the floor laughing, Timcanpy was flying in front of him trying to keep him from dieing from laughter.
"Stop- hahahahah- please- hahaha- I can't I can't BREATH! HAHAHAHAH!" Lavi said.
"Shut up, baka. Grr, TURN DAMN YOU!!" Natsu screamed as he tried to turn the key. Allen sigh, whether Natsu wanted him to or not, Allen grabbed the key and turned, opening the door.
"I told you I didn't need help. " Natsu said teary eye, as he floated in front of Allen's head, obviously sad that he couldn't turn it.
"Sorry, I couldn't let Lavi die from laughter, though, no offense." Allen said sounding as nice as possible.
The three if them entered the room, Natsu flew to the bed and pulled off the first sheet. The room seems pretty unoccupied, other than the white night gown that was folded up on a chair.
"So, does Ayume go around the contra carrying nothing than her weapons and a night gown?" Lavi asked.
"Yes, old stupid one. Has the thought ever run though your head that Ayume's other stuff was destroyed by the Akuma?" Natsu said.
"You can out Ayume on the bed now, Allen." Natsu said once he pulled the sheet back to his liking.
"Hai." Allen said. Gently, Allen placed her on the bed, Natsu then pulled up the thin sheet. Instantly, once the sheet covered Ayume's body, she rolled over, placing Natsu in between her shoulder and the bed. I do the best I can to take care of her and this is the thanks I get?! Natsu thought.
"Help... me.." Natsu said, pushing his right paw, pointing it the others.
"No way, this is too enjoyable." Lavi said, arms crossed having a huge grin across his face,
"May your bacon BURN!!" Natsu said to Lavi, spitting venom when he said the word burn.
"I'll help you Natsu." Allen said grabbing Natsu's little paw.
"Thank you, Allen." Natsu said, as Allen manage to pull out the little guy.
"Does she usually do this?" Allen asked the flying reptile.
"No, usually I get out of the way." Natsu said.
"I meant does she usually faint after she attacks Akuma." Allen said, as Natsu flew over to the shelf.
"Oh, not usually, only for level three, cause that last attack is the only way she knows of that she can defeat them. But other than that, she's fine." Natsu explain as he tried to make the shelf as comfortable as possible.
"How long have you been with her, rodent?" Lavi asked.
"Rodent?! That's a new one." Natsu said as he looked at a while. "The answer is as long as I have been with her."
"That's not an answer, rodent." Lavi said.
"I know." Natsu said smiling evilly.
Allen sent Lavi to their hotel room, which was only a few doors down. As he stayed with Natsu, trying to help the guy as much as he can, and get some answers.
"Natsu?" Allen said as he tried to fold the sheets that Natsu knocked down (the sheets that came down with him when he jumped from the intensity of the light). Natsu was up on a shelve, watching Allen, who he asked if he can help Allen in any way. Allen said that it was okay, so Natsu just watched.
"Yeah? " Natsu said.
"Ayume said that you were part-golem, so does that mean you have the same life expectance or what?" Allen asked.
"Actually, I've been alive a lot longer then the sciencetist expected."
"Really? Interesting, so when were you born?"
"When was the last time the Earl was here?"
"About 7000 years ago. Why?"
"I was created a little after the Earl was defeated."
"REALLY?!"
"Yeah, I was supposedly made to destroy Akuma, but their plane back fired since I can only do shields."
"Wow. So what did you do the last 7000 years?"
"Actually 6500, I was with Ayume's family for the last 500 years. But in my spare time, I saw the world. DAMN ACTARTICA'S COLD!"
"Oh."
"Allen, I have a question for you."
"Yeah?"
"Lavi and his stupidity, is it a recent thing or was he born that way?" Allen tried so hard not burst out laughing, trying to be polite.
"So how long is she going to be asleep?" Allen asked Natsu.
"She'll probably wake up in a few hours." Natsu said, yawning as he readied himself into a nap.
"What was Ayume like as a kid?"
"Hm... Ayume as a kid... Well I remember that she like flowers, and running in the fields and she fall asleep in the fields when she was tired. She was defiantly a real sweetie."
"What happen? "
"What else? Her mother died, then her father. Akuma attacked the village, and a general realized that she had an Innocence inside of her."
"That's so sad."
"Poor skater-chan." Lavi said, appearing out of nowhere blowing his nose on a tissue.
"Lavi!" Allen yelled.
"WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING, BANDANA!! STEP AWAY FROM AYUME-CHAN!! AND WHO THE HELL IS SKATER-CHAN?!" Natsu yelled.
"Ayume is Skater-chan, since I saw that board in the corner." Lavi explain.
"GET AWAY FROM AYUME-CHAN!!" Natsu said as he got ready to blow fire on his hair.
XOXOX
The morning sun rose, Ayume stretched her arms to the ceiling. She looked down realizing she was wearing the clothes from the other day.
"What happen again?" She asked herself scratching the top of her head. She looked to the side of the bed, her shoes were there. She closed her eyes tryng to remember.
"Oh yeah! I was fighting Akuma with Allen-kun and Lavi-kun. There was a level three, and I used my Innocence for too long. Opise!" Ayume said aloud to herself.
"How'd I get back in my room though?"
"GOOD MORNING!! SLEEPING BEAUTY!!" Lavi yelled as he pounced on Ayume, waking Natsu in the process. All of a sudden, Lavi felt something very cold against his cheek, he looked down, to see Ayume holding a gun hitting his check.
"You have five seconds to get off me and take ten steps back." Ayume said, a sly look in her eye convinces Lavi she was serious about pulling the trigger.
"Alright. Lets not do any thing rash." Lavi said as he slowly back away hands up in the air.
"Wha-? You actually thought it was real? I must be getting good." Ayume said, her carefree smile returned. As she let go of the gun, it exploded sending tiny bits of glittery light all around the room. Allen came in as the light slowly fell to the ground.
"Feeling better, Ayume-chan?" Allen asked, as he entered.
"Hai. Thank you Allen-kun." Ayume said.
"No offense, but why are you still here? Don't you exorcist go back to the Black Order with the Innocence, that you do have, right?" Ayume said, somehow sliding in the question about the Innocence.
"Hai. But Allen and I wanted to ask you a question." Lavi said smiling. Allen smiled, as they told her what the question was.
"NANI?!" Ayume said.
Cliffy! Sorry if you hate me for it. Review please!
