Chapter sixteen: Noah
"Are you sure you're okay?" Ayume asked Allen as they got on the train. It's been three days since they ran into the Noah, Hayate. They been spending there free time recuperating, Ayume did her best to help Allen heal, and his wound was almost gone. A real doctor would have to see Ayume's shoulder.
"ME?! What about you? You're the one who had a branch pillowed though her shoulder!" Allen yelled, Timcanpy flew in front of Ayume nodding his body.
"I know, but I'm fine, really. You're the one who had a taste of Hayate's death tree though your stomach." Ayume said as they looked for a place to sit.
"yeah, but it's nearly gone now. You and your innocence are a real team. Are you sure you not a doctor?"
"No, a magician or a freak would suit me better." Ayume said as she sat down. Defiantly a freak. She thought.
"You're not a freak. More of a doctor." Allen said as he down across from her.
"Sure, but a doctor doesn't use energy to heal wounds. Pretty sure a freak can."
"No." Allen said he stopped and thought for a while. "If anything a magician." Ayume kindly at him and Allen smiled back.
"Thank you, Allen."
The train had been moving for a while, Ayume was lost in deep thought. She kept biting on her finger nail, like L from death note, a thousand questions ran though her head, and she didn't have the answer to any of them. Was I really that obvious? How long will it take for another to find out? Or the Black Order or the Noah Clan? How much longer can i keep this up, or will I die before anything is figured out? She thought as her eyes were glued to the scenery passing by.
"Ayume?" Allen said, getting her out of her daze. She quickly turned to him, and tried not to look worried, even though she was freaking out on the inside.
"Yes Allen-kun?" Ayume answered putting on her fake smile, a smile so fake it seemed real.
"Are you okay? You're being awfully quiet." Allen said, worryness in his voice and face. "Is it your arm again?" Ayume didn't really notice the pain emitting from her arm, but it really wasn't that noticeable.
"Yeah, I fine. I'm just thinking really hard." Ayume answered. Allen looked at her confusingly. He looks extremely cute. Ayume thought as she started to blush.
"Are you sure? You look red." Allen stated as he put his hand on her forehead, making her blush even more.
"Y-y-yeah. I'm fine." She said trying her best not to stutter, it wasn't working.
"Do you have a fever?" He said moving his hand down to her cheek. Please stop before I faint. Ayume thought, her face got even redder.
"No, no, no I don't think so."
"Well your face is really red."
"Can we please change the subject?"
"So are you thinking about that Noah?" Allen asked, after Ayume somehow manage to take his hand off her face before she fainted.
"A little, but I don't think we have to worry about him anymore." Ayume stated as she looked back out the window.
"Why not?" Allen asked. Ayume didn't answer at first, she just looked lost in her eyes.
"i think he's dead." Ayume finally answered.
"DEAD?! How?" Allen asked. Ayume put her head in her hand.
"I don't know, i think he just is." Her eyes looked lost and confused, More confused than Allen was.
"What happen?"
"Allen, I think you know what happened."
"No, I meant what happen after I passed out." Ayume stop, looking down to the floor and closing her eyes for only a second.
"Well, there was a bright light that came from inside of him. And that was it." Ayume lied.
"So the white light happened again?"
"Again? What does that mean?"
"Last mission we went on, there was this strange white light that destroyed that level two."
"Really? never heard of that before." Ayume said as she started to think about it. A lot of weird stuff has happened before, but she never heard of that one.
XOXOXOXOXOXOXOXO
"THERE YOU ARE!! HOW DARE YOU MAKE ME TAKE CARE OF...OF...OF THAT THING!!" Lavi yelled at Ayume when Allen and herself returned to the order. Lavi's hair was shorter than it used to be and burned, very, very burned.
"Lavi! What happened?" Allen asked. Ayume could feel the hatred at her.
"What happened?! WHAT HAPPENED?! I TELL YOU WHAT HAPPENED, THAT FLYING RODENT NEARLY BURNED MY HAIR OFF!! AGAIN!! AYUME, NEXT TIME, I DON'T CARE WHAT BOOKMAN HAS TO SAY ABOUT IT, I'M NOT LOOKING AFTER THAT THING!!" Lavi screamed.
"AYUME!!" The small creature yelled as he raced toward her, than hugged her cheek and rubbed his head against it.
"You won't believe the torture I went though! I mean, It's hard watching someone that stupid." Natsu said as Ayume had the most annoyed look on her face.
"Natsu, he was suppose to look after you, not the other way around." Ayume said in a voice that promises death.
"I know, but the next time, choose someone a bit smarter, maybe then i won't have to breath fire." Natsu stated his voice all happy like.
"WHO ARE YOU CALLING STUPID, SCALES BALL!!" Lavi yelled pointing to Natsu. Natsu stopped rubbing his head against Ayume's cheek and looked at Lavi.
"Did you hear that scales ball comment. That is only something a stupid person would say. I mean, how on Earth did Bookman choose you to be his apprentice?" Natsu said.
"Natsu." Ayume said as she scooped up the dragon. She walked up a few steps till she was right next to Lavi, who desperately wanted to kill Natsu. She turned and looked at the wall that was on the other side.
"Ayume?" Natsu said as he confusingly looked at her.
"How much pain would you get if I threw you against that brick wall?"
"W-w-w-w-why do you ask?" Natsu asked in fear. Ayume didn't answer, she threw Natsu's body in the air a few times before throwing it as hard as she could against the wall, leaving a perfect little circle where Natsu went though. Ayume wiped the dirt off her hands still looking at the hole.
"Remind me not to get on your bad side." Allen said a bit in fear looking at the hole.
"Hehe. Revenge is sweet." Lavi said, arms crossed and smiling evilly at the hole.
XOXOXOXOXOX
"Just so we're clear, there was nothing that called for that." Natsu said to Ayume. They were back in Ayume's room and she was getting ready for a nice bath. Her hair was down as she brushed it slowly looking at Natsu.
"You say nothing called for that, but the fact that you spit fire on Lavi's hair again isn't nothing." Ayume said.
"Yes it is, you're just being difficult."
"Sure." Ayume looked down, she took a deep sigh as she continued to brush her hair.
"Ayume?" Natsu said as he laid down on her head.
"Hm?" Ayume responded.
"Is something wrong?" He asked. Ayume sighed again, as she put her brush down.
"Do you think I'm...obvious?"
"Sometimes, like just know it was clearly obvious that you were angry at me."
"No, I mean." She said as she looked out the window. "Am I obvious?"
"Oh, about what?"
"NATSU!" Ayume yelled scaring Natsu off her head.
"No seriously, which one?" Natsu asked having his hands up in front of him.
"Which one do you think?"
"Well, there's your arm, your past, the fact that you were a Noah and the fact that you're half Noah." Natsu said having one par under his head as it looked off in the distance. Ayume sighed in frustration.
"The last two Natsu."
"Oh, then no. Why do you ask?"
"Because I ran into Hayate in my last mission."
"WHAT?! What happened?"
"Well, I was being held captive, Allen came to rescue me, then he got really hurt, and I got scared. Then..." Ayume trailed off as she looked back down.
"Then..." She repeated.
"Then you used your Noah powers to save Allen, he found out your secret so you killed him." Ayume bit down on her lip.
"Yes." She said lowly as she removed the bandage on her cheek.
"Poor Hayate, it was just cruel to have him fight in a war, but then he became a weapon, right? And when that happens, it's hard to turn back."
"Yeah."
"Uh, Ayume?"
"Yes Natsu."
"Where'd you get that scratch on your cheek from?"
"Where do you think, Natsu."
"I don't know. You can't really get hurt from Akuma because your wounds heal so fast, and Innocence past right though you so...?"
"Allen."
"WHAT?! WHAT DID HE DO TO YOU?! DID HE HIT YOU OR, OR, OR...!!"
"Not on purpose, Natsu." Ayume said, face and voiced annoyed.
"Oh. The how?"
"I don't think he realized it but, some of his bullets went past the Akuma he was aiming for and scratched me."
"HOLY SHIT!! HIS INNOCENCE ACUTALLY TOUCHED YOU?! THAT'S UNHEARD OF!!"
"I guess that means he's special."
"Heart special?"
"No." Ayume said as she shook her head. "Just special."
That might have been a little obivous, but if you didn't guess it, oh well.
