Chapter 3: Painful Findings
It was as if he were viewing a movie in which it was moving forward very slowly. Kanda was rooted to the spot on the curb where he was standing, unable to do a thing as he watched the scene before him unfold. He could hear a loud noise as the driver of the car hit their brakes hard, trying to stop their car, but it was too late. How had this happened? How was this happening? This wasn't possible. Kanda's mind was blank, and he was angry with himself because of it. He couldn't react at all to what he was seeing.
The sickening sound of metal hitting flesh was heard as Allen was hit. He was thrown up, rolling over the hood of the car and slammed hard into the windshield. The impact of his body hitting it made a dent in the glass and an intricate web of deep cracks, but it did not shatter. And then as the car came to a shuddering halt, Allen's limp body rolled once more off the hood and hit the asphalt with a sickening crunch. Then he lay still.
It was several seconds before Kanda could force his numb body to move. He didn't even know why he was in such shock. Allen would heal. But would he be able to heal completely? Even a vampire couldn't recover completely from everything. The sort of damage that Allen had seemed to have gotten would take months to heal. He would have to go through a lot of pain. Kanda didn't want him to have to go through that. He moved over to Allen slowly, eyes on the body.
The driver staggered out of the car and stared, then ran unevenly away from them. Kanda didn't even notice. He could smell the strong scent of Allen's blood. He knelt, rolling him over. One side of Allen's face was red from his blood. It stained his hair, matting it together. His right shoulder was at an odd angle, and his hand was twisted.
"Allen?" He was shocked at the weakness of his voice. He cleared his throat and swallowed, able to regain some of himself. "Oi, Allen, can you hear me?" He brushed some hair from Allen's face. The boy shifted in his arms, a grimace appearing on his pale lips. He let out a low noise, one that was thick with pain. Kanda focused on his face. Allen's eyes opened slowly and they were glazed.
Kanda didn't know what to say. He tightened his arms around the slender body as he felt a weak hand grip his arm. The grip strengthened a little, Allen holding on more tightly. "Don't move..." he said roughly. "You shouldn't move."
"Gh..." Allen closed his eyes again, grip on Kanda's arm now a bit painful. And then he jerked forward violently, angling his shoulder towards Kanda. A loud crack echoed through the empty street. Kanda blinked, again very shocked as the boy relaxed, letting out a small sigh. He watched, bemused, as Allen lifted his left arm a little. His wrist was at the wrong angle, and so were some of his fingers. He started to flex his hand. A series of pops and cracks could be heard and then Allen's hand was aligned once again.
He relaxed completely. All scratches on his arms or hands had healed. Kanda wouldn't be surprised if the head wound that Allen had suffered was healed as well. "...I feel better now," Allen said, sitting up. He shook his head a bit, looking at the car for a moment. There was a dent in the front, and the windshield was almost to breaking point.
"...What the hell'd you do?" Kanda asked.
Allen looked at him swiftly, startled by his tone. Why did he sound angry? That's what he sounded like. He didn't understand why Kanda was looking at him in that way either. "W-what?" he asked, staring. "I didn't do anything. Why're you angry with me?"
Kanda stood up slowly, eyes never leaving the boy. Allen looked very confused. He stood as well, staring at Kanda. He wiped blood away from his eyes. "Kanda?" he asked softly.
"...I've never seen a vampire, or anyone else, heal that swiftly," he said in a low voice. "Never."
"Isn't it good that I healed?" he asked. His voice was still soft. "I don't want to be in pain more. I had enough of that before I was a vampire." He had started to walk away from the street, down the sidewalk. The streetlight made his paleness look yellow.
Kanda was silent for a moment, scowling. "Yes, of course it is," he said. He didn't like it when he didn't understand. And right now, he really didn't understand. "I don't want you to be in pain." He wanted to know why he had healed so quickly. Why he had been able to fix his hand, even though it was evidently broken? He followed his partner down the street. Allen was still bloody. "Let's go somewhere else, not back to your place?"
Allen turned to look at him, head going to the side. "Why?" he asked.
"People saw you today, Lenalee did as well...They'll call the cops, they'll try and talk to you," he said flatly. "It'd be safer to be somewhere else." Allen looked uncertain. "We can come back and get things later. We're not leaving it completely."
The boy nodded. It made sense, he guessed. They would want to contact him, and he would have a hard time avoiding people at his own place. But he needed to clean up. He still looked like he was hit by a car, with blood matting his red hair, drying on his arms. "Where would we go though? I need to take a shower or something. I would scare someone if they saw me like this or they'd call an ambulance or something."
"Don't worry, I have that covered," Kanda said and took the lead, heading towards the place that he and Lavi had found before he had even seen Allen. The boy followed him slowly. Kanda could sense his eyes on him but he didn't look around. He was still getting over the fact that Allen had been able to heal. He knew Allen wasn't happy with how he reacted.
Allen sighed silently, looking down. Was Kanda mad at him? It seemed like he was, but he didn't want him to be angry. The silver eyed vampire didn't want to go through more pain then was necessary, and being able to heal like that was like a gift. He didn't know why he was able to do it, but he was glad. He hadn't thought that he would be able to heal from something as serious as a dislocated shoulder or a broken hand. He looked at his hand. It looked normal, or as normal as it could look when it was black.
He glanced up. He remembered this place. He had first met Tyki and Road here, although he didn't remember it clearly because Kanda had been feeding off of him right before that. He hurried his pace, catching up to Kanda. The other vampire walked up the steps and went into the house. Lavi was still out, so they could have some privacy for a little bit at least.
Allen looked around and found the bathroom. He went to it, starting to peel his clothing off. It seemed like he had bled a lot more than he had been aware. His arms had dried blood on them and the one side of his face was bloody. He looked at his shoulder, and noticed a faint bruising. He glanced at the mirror. He still wasn't used to not seeing anything there. He could pick something up and it looked like it was floating.
A shiver going down his spine momentarily, he shook his head. Allen started the shower, getting into the water. Kanda had followed him through to the bathroom, watching him silently as he leaned against the door frame, arms crossed over his chest. He couldn't help but admire the boys body when he got undressed. Deciding that he should apologize for how he had acted after the accident, he undressed as well and got into the shower behind Allen. He slid his arms around the boys waist. He let out a soft, startled noise.
"Did I scare you?" Kanda asked in his ear.
"No," Allen said. "Startled me is all. Are you...mad at me?" He was worried that he was. He brushed several strands of hair from his face, leaning back against Kanda's body.
"Did you think I was?" he replied, kissing his neck to his shoulder.
Allen gave a small nod, chewing at his lip nervously. "Yes," he said. "I thought that you were mad. Just how you sounded...especially when you asked me what I had done..." Kanda didn't look at him, continuing to kiss the pale skin on the boy's shoulder. He was pleased when he felt a shudder run through the smaller.
"No, I'm not mad," Kanda said, speaking into Allen's ear closely and let his lips brush it. Allen's eyes closed a little, lips parting. The elder vampires slid across his partners slick body. He was rewarded with a small breathy moan when he brushed Allen's nipple and took to rubbing it. The boy closed his eyes.
"A-ah...Yu," Allen breathed.
His hands moved down slowly. "Yes?" Kanda was taking his time, enjoying ever small curve of Allen's body. The boy pressed against his hands subtly, just enough that he could tell he liked it. He didn't answer his question, but Kanda figured it was more of a moan than anything else. One of Kanda's hands slid across his thigh and drifted across his ass.
Allen had braced himself against the shower wall, hands holding him steady. He was panting softly as Kanda continued to feel him slowly. It seemed to make him very sensitive and he was turned on. He didn't know if Kanda was teasing him or if he just liked to feel him. It felt more like a bit of both.
His hands tensed against the tile wall as Kanda's finger circled his entrance slowly before he pressed it into him a little. Allen let out a whine, head to the side. His feet slipped a bit, legs spreading wider. "Y-Yu," he said in a breathy voice. "Why're you t-teasing me?"
"Teasing you? I'm apologizing," he said. "Don't say you don't like it, because I know you would be lying. You like it when I tease you...It gets you more into it." Allen didn't look over his shoulder at him, a bright blush flushing across his cheeks. It was true, but he wasn't about to admit it.
Kanda forced his finger deeper before adding a second, making the silver haired vampire arch his back, moaning more loudly than before. He bowed his head, arms trembling as small waves of pleasure washed through him. He couldn't help but jerk a little.
By now, Kanda was hard. All of Allen's moans and pleas were always enough to turn him on, as well as the way he pressed back into his hand, wanting more. "What do you want, Allen?" he asked in his ear.
"You!" he gasped out, head still bowed, water dripping from his hair. Kanda smirked slightly, but only added another finger into the boy. Allen gasped, hands clenching against the tile. He was wanting it badly now and didn't want to wait any longer. "Stop making me wait!"
Kanda was startled by his tone of voice. It was sharper than before, but filled with a lust caused desperation that caused him to smirk. Allen let out a small hiss of impatience. Why was he taking so long?
"You're impatient," Kanda stated, pulling his hand away from the boy. Allen panted softly, braced still against the wall. He moved closer to the pale body, gripping his hip with one hand as he spread the boy's legs more widely. Then he thrust in.
"A-ah!" Allen's cry-like moan echoed through the bathroom and off the tile sharply, making it louder. Kanda couldn't suppress the low groan as he went into Allen again, deeper this time. Damn he was so good. He was the best, that was for sure. The silver haired vampire's back arched in pleasure as Kanda started a rhythm with his thrusts, gripping the pale hips tightly.
He loved how Allen pressed back for more. It turned him on even more, getting him more into it. Allen rocked against him, trying to get him to go faster. Kanda obliged, speeding up the pace.
"Oh...nnh! Oh god...ahhh..." The younger vampire's moans grew louder, over the rush of the shower. Pleasure went through him in waves. It felt so damn good, he could barely stand it. Kanda panted against his neck, gripping more tightly at Allen's slick hips. The water was making a steady footing hard to come by. Allen's feet were slowly slipping farther away from the wall.
"Damn Moyashi..." Kanda grunted through a groan and bit at Allen's neck, breaking the skin. Blood spilled over, into his mouth and down the pale shoulder, running down his back. He let out a small startled gasp as his partner did this, not expecting the teeth but relishing in the pleasure. He still tasted so good. Kanda ran his tongue along his own lips, catching the last traces of the sweet crimson liquid before it was washed away by the shower.
Allen jerked scrabbling at the tile. He was overwhelmed with the pleasure, and it was wonderful. He let out moans, shudders going through his entire being. Then he stiffened, a loud choking cry escaping his lips. Kanda had found the perfect spot.
"Oh oh...Ng! Oh god...Yuu!" he let out as the other went in faster, hitting that perfect spot with increasing force. "I c-can't...I'm going to...I'm gunna..." Allen's sentence ended in a scream as he climaxed, pleasure washing over him. Cum joined the water circling down the drain.
Kanda was caught by surprise. Allen's scream of uncontrolled pleasure and the powerful tighting of his muscles set the other off and he released deep into the boy. The other vampire let out a groan as he did so, sagging against the wall.
After several moments of nothing but panting and the constant sound of water, Kanda pulled himself from Allen, who staggered a bit to stay on his feet. He rolled so his back was against the wall and panted hard. He felt really drained, and wasn't sure why. One time hadn't drained him in this way before. His lover leaned close, kissing him. Allen kissed back, a bit weak.
"What's wrong?" Kanda asked slowly, pulling back a little to look at him.
"Dunno," Allen said, shaking his head a little. "I feel really tired..." He closed his eyes for a moment, limbs feeling very heavy. He straightened. "I don't know why..." He tried pushing it away, cleaning himself from the actions that had just taken place.
Kanda watched him, navy eyes never leaving Allen's face. He wondered if something was wrong or if he was just tired. His thoughts drifted back to the accident that had occurred. Maybe that was the reason why Allen suddenly looked so tired. He had healed so quickly.
Allen was uneven on his feet. He braced himself against the wall with a hand, eyes half closed already.
"Come on," Kanda said gruffly and turned the water off, propelling Allen out of the shower. He stepped out, getting a towel to dry himself. He watched the slender figure, making sure he wouldn't fall asleep right here and now and break something. He got a towel himself, drying off before pulling his clothes back on. Allen did the same. He looked exhausted.
Together they left the bathroom, Allen's steps a bit uneven. He flopped down on the couch and yawned widely, fangs flashing momentarily. Kanda went over to him, nudging him. "Move," he said. Allen made a face and a small groan but pulled himself up a bit so that his partner could sit down as well. Then he stretched out, laying across Kanda's legs.
He was asleep in a matter of seconds. Kanda looked down at him, amusement in his dark gaze. He intertwined his fingers in the silver locks, watching the pale face for a minute or two. He was so glad that Allen was alright, although the shock of how fast he healed still hadn't completely sunken in yet. He looked up, across the living room. The sound of the door opening drew his attention away from his thoughts and he looked around. After a moment, Lavi appeared from the foyer. Kanda didn't say anything, but watched the redhead for several moments.
"Why're you here?" Lavi asked, looking shocked. "Why not at Allen's place?" he came over to them, spotting Allen. His green gaze lingered on the boy for a moment before choosing to sit down across from the ebony haired vampire and the sleeping one.
"If you don't remember, we kind of ran into some people...Who will probably call the cops," Kanda stated. "He's probably still mad at you, by the way. Although I don't know."
Lavi gave a small shrug. "I'll apologize when he wakes, whenever that is. He looks really out of it...what'd you do to him?" he looked at Kanda, wondering if the vampire would get angry for him asking that. And so he was shocked when Kanda said nothing at all, just gazed down at the boy laying across his legs.
The way Allen was lying made his chin rest against his chest, one hand hanging over the couch. Silver hair played across his pale face as he slept. He wasn't even breathing, which new vampires did on reflex, even during sleep. Kanda watched his still form for several more moments before looking up at Lavi. He was silent for another few moments. This was when Lavi thought something was wrong. Why was Kanda acting like this? It was a bit strange.
"...Kanda, you alright?" he asked uneasily.
As if he hadn't heard him, he asked instead, "What do you think would happen if someone was hit by a car?"
Lavi stared at him, green eye filled with confusion. "What? Are you planning to hit someone with a car anytime soon, is that why?" he asked, blinking slowly.
"Just answer the damn question," he growled. Now that sounded more like the Kanda he knew. He relaxed a little, a thoughtful look coming across his face. He imaged a scene in his mind. He had seen people get hit by cars, but the outcome depended on so many different variables.
"...How fast is the car moving, in this situation?" Lavi asked Kanda after a moments thought.
"Moderately fast."
"How bigs the car then?" he asked.
"...Moderate size."
"So a moderately sized car going moderately fast?" Lavi asked, eyebrow rising. "Any other way of fitting anymore moderately's in there?" Kanda's gaze sharpened a little, glaring at the redhead. "Okay, I kid. Let me think then...This is very random, Yu-chan."
"Just shut up and think," Kanda snapped, annoyed with the redhead already. Couldn't he do one thing without being annoying? Then again, that's how Lavi was, so he doubted that it would be possible. He sat quietly, watching Lavi think.
"...I guess several things to happen. The car could stop right as they hit the person, and they just fall forward, legs broken or something...Then they could also roll under the car, getting driven over, if the person's driving fast enough, I guess," Lavi said. "And then they could roll up, over the hood..."
"What do you see happening with that situation?" His voice was even, almost completely flat and devoid of emotion.
"Uhh..Well, they roll up onto the hood of the car, maybe hit the windshield. If the driver stops then they'd probably fall back to the ground. I don't see very many people surviving that, or at least not without injury," Lavi stated. "It would hurt to do that. Especially the impact with the ground."
"What if it were a vampire?"
"It would still hurt like hell, Yu-chan! We get hurt too! Even if we would heal, it would hurt...Why are you asking me these things? Did you see someone get hit by a car? Was that what happened?" he asked.
Kanda said nothing. His gaze went down to the boy on lying across his lap slowly. Lavi would get it. He wasn't that much of an idiot. He wanted to know why Allen had healed so fast. Maybe Lavi had some ideas, but he hadn't wanted to just outright ask it.
"...No..." Lavi said, shock in his voice. "...Did that happen to...Allen?"
He gave a slow nod, eyes not leaving that pale, perfect face.
"...But he's fine. He looks fine. How does he look fine? Is he fine?" Lavi asked, staring across the room at Kanda. The dark haired vampire glanced up meeting his gaze momentarily and gave a nod.
"He's perfectly fine," he stated. "But I want to know why."
Lavi fell silent, eye flicking back and forth as he though. He had never heard of anything like this, and he had heard of a lot of things. Even if Kanda was older than he was, he probably heard about more things since he actually liked to listen. He thought back to when Allen had bit himself...It had healed quickly then.
"Have any ideas as to why he heals so quickly?" Kanda asked, fingers tangled in Allen's hair once more. The boy hadn't moved at all since he had fallen asleep. It would've been eerily to anyone who didn't know he was a vampire. Even though Kanda himself was one, he still thought it was a little unusual.
"...I have one idea," Lavi said carefully.
"And that idea would be?"
"Is it because he was a blood child before he was turned into a vampire?" Lavi asked. "I mean...usually blood children don't...survive...do they? So would that...could that change him? I mean, there was that ritual and shit that Tyki and Road did...Was it that?"
Kanda stared at him. He hadn't even thought of that. He really hadn't. He relaxed a little, but he still wanted to be able ask someone who knew more about Blood Children. He wanted to know if there had been other Blood Children turned vampire, and survived. Others that had gone through that ritual and still turned.
"...Nh..."
Both vampires looked down at Allen. He shifted a little and his head lolled to the side. Then he fell still again. Kanda brushed hair from his face, thinking. He just needed more time to think, to let the information sink in more. It would take a bit more time.
And as he shifted, moving Allen just a little on his lap, the wind blew teasingly through the window. Kanda's head turned slightly at a scent that came with the breeze. Lavi blinked, looking over at the window. "What is it...what is that smell?" he asked, wrinkling his nose.
Kanda's eyes narrowed. The scent disappeared as soon as it came. "...Don't know," he said, but he remembered it all too well.
