Chapter 3
~Mozota, Spain~
"Che. Get over it, brat." Yuki growled as she once again tried to stand but, again, was only meant with failure and pain. "Ugggghhh! Fuck!"
"Will you at least stay still!" Luna cried. "I-I'll go get my grandpa." Luna stood to go run back to her house.
A hand gently placed on how shoulder stopped her. "That won't be necessary." Lin stated with a smile.
"W-Who are you?" Luna asked stumbling away in case they were monsters just like from a few minutes ago.
"We're friends." Ryuu stated with a huge smile.
Lin moved down and removed Yuki's shirt. Had Yuki not been at a loss of energy she would have jumped away from the unknown pair of hands.
"Speak for yourself." Felix added after Ryuu's statement.
Yuki felt herself blush, if it was possible, at the thought of the two males in her presence as the women tore away the bandages. Two perverted guys and her half naked from the waist up was not a good mix in her mind. "N-No." She panted out trying to stop the hands before too much was revealed.
Lin gave a questioning look until she realized just what she was going to be doing. "Felix, Ryuu, would you mind taking her," Lin pointed at Luna. "back to the house."
"Sure." Ryuu replied with a smile. "Come on, uhh?"
"Luna."
"Why do both of us have to take her back?" Felix asked annoyed. Like hell he wanted to be left with a brat and Ryuu.
"That's an order." Lin snapped a dark aura flowing around her.
The three standing paled and ran for the house.
"They're gone now." Lin informed Yuki in case she couldn't quite grasp the conversation. She finished unwrapping the wound to find a gash, bigger than it was before, on the left shoulder. She used her innocence to collect the blood on the bandages and sending it to the wound.
Yuki felt the strange warmth on the wounded shoulder. It felt as if the wound itself was closing up! It was strange but she was too weak to do much of anything. Hell she couldn't even think all that much thanks to the fading in and out of consciousness.
After healing Yuki's wound Lin stood. "Ryuu, come here for a sec." She called loud enough to be heard inside the house.
Immediately Ryuu came out and ran up to Lin. "What's up?" He asked as he skidded to a stop taking a quick glance at Yuki then blushing like crazy.
Lin realizing she'd forgotten to cover Yuki back up again bent down and quickly buttoned up the shirt. "Take her into the house, healing her took quite a bit out of me." Lin said as she stood up again.
"Uh. Yeah sure." Ryuu bent down carefully picking up Yuki and walked back with Lin to the house.
When they got inside Luna, her grandfather, and Felix were sitting around a table in the middle of the living room. When Luna's grandfather saw Yuki, whom was unconscious, he got up and got a futon to put her on. After the futon was set up and Yuki in place the group sat around the table.
"So… what were those things?" Luna asked breaking the silence.
"The things that attacked you are called Akuma." Lin answered.
"Demons?" Luna's grandfather asked in disbelief.
"Yes. But not the type you're thinking of. Those are the weapons created by the Noahs and the Millennium Earl, whom we believe is hiding. They're created from the sadness of someone who lost a loved one and wished for them back. They will continue to kill until they've leveled up." Lin continued.
"Then what was that sword that came out of now where?" Luna asked doing her best to grasp everything that had been said.
"That is what we call innocence." Lin answered with a smile. "It the power of god that is given to a very few selected people in the world and that can defeat the akuma, Noahs, and Earl. Me, Ryuu, and Felix all have this power."Lin informed.
"So… that power I have is… innocence?" Luna asked still a bit confused.
"What will happen to my granddaughter now?" Luna's grandfather asked, worry covered his face.
"She'll need to come with us so we can teach her how to use her innocence and help us fight the Earl." Lin said her face completely serious.
"You can't expect me to just let my granddaughter go with you!" Luna's grandfather screamed back. "She only 15!" He cried.
"Well would you rather her stay here and get kill by the akuma or a Noah that comes after her cuz of her innocence?" Felix asked coldly.
Silence fell over the group.
Luna turned to her grandfather and gave him a smile. "It's ok grandpa. Its better I go with them anyway. If those monsters keep coming back they could kill you too."
Her grandfather said nothing; a look of sadness covered his face.
"I'm glad you're going to be joining us Luna." Lin said with a polite smile. Suddenly her face light up. "Oh my, we never properly introduced ourselves! How rude! I'm Fon Han Lin. I'm a general in the Black Order, the church dedicated to stopping and destroying the Earl and his minions." Lin gave a small bow from her sitting position.
"I'm Ryuu Takashita" Ryuu said with a small giving a small bow as well.
Felix let out an annoyed huff. "I'm Felix Gomen." Felix said giving a quick small bow himself.
"I'm Eliseo Lambardi." Luna's grandfather said bowing to his guests.
"I'm Luna Lambardi" Luna said giving a bow.
"Do either one of you know who our friend here is?" Lin asked motioning toward Yuki.
Luna looked at her grandfather, who looked right back at her. Neither said a thing.
"I think that's a no." Ryuu laughed a bit as a sweat drop fell down the side of his face.
"Great. Now we have to wait for her to wake up to now. What a fucking pain." Felix growled. Of course they couldn't speed things up so they could get back on track. It was just his luck.
"You knew we were going to have to wait for her to wake before we could leave anyway, Felix. So stop complaining." Lin said looking at the annoyed Columbian man.
"I'm not complaining!" He yelled back.
"Sure sounded like complaining to me." Ryuu laughed. "But don't you think it's weird that she can use her innocence so well and isn't part of the order yet, Lin-sama?" Ryuu added on before Felix could snap back.
Lin nodded. "Obviously she the one all the finders keep reporting that destroys all the Akuma then disappears before they can approach her." Lin stated.
A huge smile graced Ryuu's features. "Haha! So we caught the ghost exorcist!" He laughed. "We're amazing!"
Felix smacked Ryuu the back of the head. "Idiot! We didn't catch her we just happened to catch up to her after she'd been injured."
"Owwww!" Ryuu cried holding the back of his head where he'd been hit. "That was mean Felix."
"And no less, you still haven't really caught me." A voice added from behind three.
All the faces turned and looked back at Yuki, who was now sitting up.
"Oh you woke up." Lin smiled at Yuki. "I'm-"
"Sorry but I don't care to know your name, though I do thank you for healing me." Yuki cut off Lin. She was looking at the crosses that marked workers of the black order with a small amount of discuss and annoyance. "Oh and thanks for saving me the trip of finding a finder or another exorcist so the brat could get to you." Yuki stated.
"You stupid bitch! Stop calling me a brat!" Luna screamed anger veins popping up on her forehead.
"I'll stop call you a brat when you stop being one." Yuki replied coldly as she stood. "Now, if you don't mind I'll be taking my leave." She began to head to the door only to have Felix stand in her way.
"Like hell you're going anywhere but with us." He growled giving Yuki a glare that would have scared most people.
Yuki laughed. "You think you can stop me?" She asked giving a glare just as scary back.
"Bitch! You're not leaving without me!" Luna yelled from her spot as she stood up and stomped over to Yuki.
"… What makes you think I'd want a brat like you following my around?" Yuki almost hissed out at the younger girl that was now standing in front of her.
"It's your fault those things attacked and I found out about my innocence." Luna snapped back.
"You would have found out anyway, baka moyashi!" Yuki yelled back. Too bad she was to focus on the argument to notice Felix and Ryuu tying her up until they'd finish. "W-What the hell? You bastards! Let me go now!" She screamed at the two.
"God, you're loud." Felix huffed before looking back at Lin. "She awake can we go now?" He asked annoyed with wasting time.
Lin smiled a bit and stood. "We'll take care of Luna-chan. I promise." Lin stated as she gave a bow to Luna's grandfather.
"Please do…" He answered without even looking up at Lin. He just stared at his lap.
Luna was smirking triumphantly at Yuki until she noticed her grandfather and walked over and hugged him. "I'll come back grandpa. I promise." She said with a smile.
Felix 'tch'ed a bit and looked away. Lin and Ryuu both smiles softly at the loving scene. Yuki looked away; a small amount of pain could be seen in her eyes.
Luna after a few minutes pulled away from her grandfather and gave him a smile. "I have to go now grandpa."
He nodded in response. She gave him a kiss on the cheek before heading to her room and getting some cloths and other things and going back to the group who were outside near the entrance waiting.
~Monopoli, Italy~
All that was left to light up the street was a couple of flickering lights. It made it hard to see the women walking down the street humming a soft tune that some would guess death himself composed. The women herself seemed to be just as terrifying. Thought she had a body most men would drool over and most women would envy the way the shadows fell over it was completely dark and evil looking.
The women's gold eyes seemed to pop out of the darkness like a cat following its prey and for all anyone knew those eyes very well could be. But for now they seemed to be scanning the street looking for somewhere or maybe someone.
It wasn't long until the women's eyes narrowed in on a small late night café. She walked over to it and walked in.
The jingle of the bell as it open caught the notice of the few people in the café, most of which were something most people would call gothic clothes. All of the men took in the sight of the women. Her blue and black corset showed off her upper body and her double D breast. The skinny jeans, that were black in color, hugged the curves of her hips. The studs on her belt made it seem forbidden to touch anywhere on her. The chains attached to the belt seemed to make a small jingling sound that harmonized with the clopping on her boots.
She took a seat at the back corner of the café and waited. Her short black hair with blue high lights brought out her tan-ish gray skin and her perfect unblemished face.
The waiter stumbled up to her. "W-What can I-I get you miss?" He asked in a shaky voice.
"Coffee." She said plainly, hardly even giving him a second glance.
He gave a nod before running back to get her coffee. The women continued to scan around the room; a smirk graced her features.
When the waiter came back and set the coffee down she looked up at him. Her gold eyes began to glow just a small bit.
"Anything e-" He suddenly cut off. He face twisted into a look of horror. He then fell to the ground and started screaming bloody murder. He was screaming so loud and fast that no one in the room could understand him. Some of the people just stared at him while others began to panic, unsure of what to do to help the waiter. The whole time the woman was there; drinking her coffee and watching the man in front of her whither in pain and terror.
Within a few minutes the man was dead on the floor. Most of the people were yelling about calling the police and running around. None of them seemed to notice when the women left the café; the smirk and look of pure enjoyment was plastered on her face.
Once she reached the end of the street a door opened.
"Playing with humans again I see, Nerezza-chan." Nebit's voice came out a seductive hum. She was there leaning on the frame of the Noah door that had appeared.
Nerezza looked over at Nebit, her smirk falling immediately. "What do you want Nebit?" She asked in an annoyed voice.
"The Earl's calling us. You included, sister dear." Nebit said with a fake smile.
Nerezza rolled her eyes before walking to the Nebit and entering into the arc. "Then let's go find out what Earl-sama has planned for us."
Nebit followed her, the door closing behind her before completely disappearing into thin air.
~A dessert in southwest Libya~
"This is all your fucking fault!" A teen age girl wearing a white collared shirt with a metallic tie that was now loosened up yelled. Her black pleated skirt that reached to her mid-tight swayed a bit as she glared up at the taller older boy in front of her. She nearly tripped when her combat boots sank into the yellow gold sand.
"All my fucking fault?" The older boy screamed back giving a glare just as intense as the girls. His black pants were rolled up to his knees while his loose white t-shirt was drenched in sweat much like the girl's in front of him. "How is it my fucking fault we ended up lost in a fucking dessert in the middle of a hot summer day, Friday?" The boy added.
"Fucking exorcist. You're all so fucking useless." An older man grumbled. His white coat's sleeves were rolled up as far as possible and it was open revealing the faded jeans and yellow shirt under. His brown hair, which was going gray, was drenched in sweat from the intense heat of the dessert.
"What the hell did you just say finder?" The two angry exorcist screamed as their heads snapped to the side so their glares were now directed to the finder. The girls elbow length hair flew up at the quickness of this motion sending a small breeze to her neck. The boy's black collar length hair sent a few small droplets of sweet fling at the motion.
"Come on Friday, Fell. This isn't the time to fight." A fourth member of the group said with a smile. His tall body moved a bit back, nearly falling as the sand slid from under his shoes. "Jack, please don't throw fuel on the fire." The wavy brown haired guy asked. Then all three glares were turned on him. Jack's cold blue eyes that seemed to see right into the guy's soul; Fell's yellow gold and silver green eyes seemed to will the guy to burst into flames just like Friday's red eyes did. To say the least, it was terrifying. The greenish brown eyed guy did his best not to run from the three.
"Stay out of this Seth." They all said in unison before glares were turned back on one another and the argument continued.
Seth continued to try to stop the fight to no avail. If they'd stopped for about thirty seconds they all would have noticed how the sand under them seemed to be sinking into the earth. But by the time they heard a cracking sound it was too late. They all screamed as they fell into the darkness of whatever was below them.
There were grunts and whimpers heard next from the group after the plopping sounds of them hitting the floor of where ever they were. The sound of their clothes ruffling as they stood was heard next.
"Where the hell are we?" Friday asked as her eyes scanned around the small amount of area that was light up.
"How the hell should I know?" Fell said back in a deeply annoyed voice.
"Why don't you useless exorcist get us fucking out of here?" Jack practically ordered while he pulled out and light his cigarette. They could all tell he was nervous.
"We all just need to calm down, guys. Flipping out isn't going to help." Seth pointed out in his normal calm voice.
The whole time they argued the hole above them seemed to close up. The sand just seemed to cover some kind of unseen dome. It was pitch black within a minute and a half.
"Fuck! I can't see anything!" Friday screamed as she tried to find her way around which end with her falling.
There was the sound of someone falling and letting out their breath just as they fell.
"Don't you have something we can use as a torch, Jack?" Seth asked trying to get his eyes to adjust to the pitch blackness with no success.
"Oh!" The sound of ruffling came and in the next seconds the sound of the lighter being flicked on. Then a same amount of area was light up as Jack light the torch he had in his bag. It was one of many things had found came in handy over his years of being a finder.
When the light illuminated the area they were greeted by the sight of Friday on top of Fell in a very compromising position. I light blush covered their faces.
Silence fell over all of them. No one moved on inch.
"What are the two of you useless idiots doing?" Jack yelled as he glares down at the two teens.
Seth let out a chuckle. "I was wondering what made you two go so quiet."
"I just fell, you dumbasses! We weren't doing!" Friday screeched as she jumped up and tried to hide the blush on her face.
"Y-Yeah. So let's just say that you didn't see that and we continue on our mission." Fell said in a shaky voice as he stood up. "Where are we any way?"
Jack turned to let the light from the torch fall so anything else around them was shown. They were greeted by the sight of what looked like a small clay town. A town that would have been seen hundreds of years ago.
"I think we might have found where the innocence is." Seth said as he scanned the town for any sight of life with his eyes.
"Well then let's get searching." Fell said with a smile as he walked forward.
"You won't be able to see you idiot." Friday stated coldly as she grabbed Fell's arm to keep him from leaving and disappearing into the darkness alone.
"Here" Jack said handing the torch to Seth who took it without question. Jack than pulled out another torch and used the first to light the second one. "We'll split up into two groups. The two useless love birds can go one way and we'll go the other." Jack said to Seth as he held out the other torch for one of the two other exorcists to take.
"Shut up you stupid cranky old man!" The two yelled in unison as Fell snatched the torch from Jack. The two stomped off going west.
Seth let out a little chuckle as he and Jake turned and began to walk toward the east area of the town.
The two groups had been searching for all of ten minutes when the akuma showed up. Jack quickly went and hid as the 3 exorcist activated.
Seth's eyes turned into an amber color as he focused on the akuma. Within seconds they all exploded. "It's all good, Jack. You can come out."Seth stated; his eyes back to their normal greenish brown color.
Over with Fell and Friday, more akuma attacked. Fell grabbed his watch forgetting about the torch and letting it fall. The second it hit the ground and stopped moving the flames went out.
Friday had already started her attack and killed a few akuma when the flames dead. "Damn it! I can't see shit!" She screamed as her fingers came back covered in blood.
"I can't see either!" Fell yelled as he jumped just barely dodging an akuma's bullets. He closed his eyes and used the sounds of the akumas movements to aim and click the button. There was a sudden explosion that light the area up for a few seconds. The two exorcist use those few second to pinpoint the akumas and attack. There were move explosions before there seemed to be no more akuma.
"How the hell are we suppose to see now?" Friday screamed at the top of her lungs.
"Calm down!" Fell yelled back. "We'll just have to try to find Seth and the idiotic finder." He said grabbing Friday's hand.
Friday went quick but held Fell's hand. "Hey. Is that them over there to the left?" She asked pointing with their hands.
"Yeah I see a light but it's not moving. Maybe they're waiting for us." Fell said as he began to lead the way toward the light. Friday stumbled behind him.
Over with Seth and Jack, they too had noticed a light.
"Must be Friday and Fell." Seth said as they continued walking forward easily navigating their way through the crumbling buildings.
In the next minutes the two groups bumped into each other.
"Hey wait! If you're here then what's that light?" Fell asked as he looked over at the light.
They all were quiet for a moment before they all knew what it was.
"Innocence." They'd all said before running to get the innocence in case there were move akuma nearby.
When they got close enough to see clearly, they noticed the innocence was set in an ancient shield that was hung on the wall of the biggest building in the town.
"Once we take it down the sand will probably come crashing down on us." Fell said as he followed the light that came from the innocence up to the roof of the invisible doom.
"I'll cover us." Friday said as she began to stretch her body around them and the innocence. Once she made her body as hard as steel she gave them a nod.
Seth stepped forward and grabbed the shield, taking it down. Just like Fell had said the doom disappeared and the sand came crashing down. Once all the sand was done falling Friday shock it off and went back to normal.
"Okay, we have the innocence now we just have to get back home!" Fell said with a smile reminding the whole group about where they were.
The whole group groaned as they began to trudge back to the nearest town which was miles away.
Taiko: okay feel free t flame away.
Felix: or kill her. that's an option too.
Taiko: ... *looks a Felix* you're an ass you know that?
Lin: ^-^" he's been like that since he joined the order.
Ryuu: which isn't much of a surprise.
Yuki: eh. if you guys have some kind of suggestion or something drop it on Taiko. she's more than likely to use it.
Taiko: hope i could make you laugh a bit :D
