Ello! Chapter two is up and ready! Enjoy.
Chapter two
There was no blood, no bodies and no one else around. The school hallways seemed deserted, other than the some piles of what seemed to be harmless dust. Things aren't what they seem to be. The large metal monster silently roamed though the hallways, searching to see if anyone got away. Not knowing that two people where pressed against the other side of the corner. Yurino was pressing Shiroi against the wall with her hand covering her mouth. Shiori didn't say anything in response, just stared at Yurino, as Yurino did her best to see around the corner without getting caught. Shiroi was barely breathing, doing her best not to make any noise, while it seem like Yurino was dead, her chest didn't move and she seem to take in any breath.
Yurino looked over the corner and watched as the creature went around the other corner, away from view or sound. Finally, in what seemed like the longest time to Shiori, Yurino finally let out all of her breath at once then did her best to pant as quietly as possible, dropping her hands to her knees, leaning over.
"Yurino…" Shiori said in a low scared voice. Yurino looked at her from the corner of her eye, but other than that, not moving at all.
"What was that thing?" Shiori said, keeping her hand close to her chest. Yurino looked at her, turning her head completely. There was only one other time she saw monsters like this, and something worse, much, much worse. Yurino didn't answer, she just bit down on her bottom lip
"What happened to everyone? All of our friends, our teachers?" Shiori asked as her eyes started to swell up with tears. Again, Yurino didn't answer, she didn't need to. Shiori saw what happened to everyone as Yurino was forced to drag her away. Yurino couldn't blame her from crying. How could she? She hasn't faced death like this before, she only saw the end results of one. Shiori started crying silently, her tears falling as if they were in slow motion.
"Hey Shiori?" Yurino finally said kneeling down to her eye level. Shiori looked up, questioning what she was doing.
"You need to listen very carefully, and do exactly what I say, okay?" Yurino said. Shiori, unable to answer just nodded her head.
"You know that escape route I use when I had too much of school?" Yurino asked, Shiori just nodded her head again.
"You get out of here though that, get out of the school yard, run all the way to the orphanage and warn everyone. You have to get everyone out of here no matter what okay?" Yurino explained. Shiori looked at her, and just nodded her head again.
"Okay, get going." Yurino said as she stand up and face the direction where she last saw the Akuma. Shiori gave a small gasp, she got why Yurino want her to do all of that instead of her.
"What about you? What are you going to do?" Shiori asked loudly. Yurino looked down at her and smiled.
"Don't worry, I'll be fine." Yurino said.
"But….!" Shiori said before she was cut off by a giant bullet passing by right in front of her head. The two of them direct their attention to the Akuma that was in front of them.
"Go now!" Yurino yelled, making Shiori jump a bit before she got up and started running. Shiori just looked at the Akuma for a while, arms down but face determine.
"Just when I thought this place was safe." Yurino muttered to herself.

Allen, Lavi and Kanda just made there way finally to the front of the school building, all of them were breathing hard.
"Is this the place where we heard the scream from?" Allen said taking deep breaths in between.
"Not sure." Kanda said.
"It has to be, this place is completely dissertated." Lavi said.
"What does that have to do with anything?" Kanda asked.
"Well I know for a fact that this place was always super crowded, even at night." Lavi stated.
"You haven't been here for ten years! How are you sure things don't change like that!?" Kanda yelled.
"Kanda does have a point Lavi." Allen stated. Lavi groaned out loud as he pulled down on his on his bandana.
"WILL YOU JUST LOOK IN THE WINDOWS AND TELL ME IF YOU SEE SOMEONE!!" Lavi yelled. Allen and Kanda listened to him and check the windows, and Lavi was right. There was nobody inside, not even in the classrooms.
"Lavi's right." Allen said as he scanned the windows again.
"Thank you!" Lavi yelled nearly busting Allen's ear.
"Kanda, stay here why Lavi and I go check if there's anyone in there." Allen said. Kanda "che" in annoyance but listened.
It must have been just five minutes after Allen and Lavi went inside when Kanda noticed something. He saw someone climb out one of the windows on the second floor as and begin to climb down. She must have been about five feet above the ground when she lost her footing and grip and fell to the ground. Kanda, figuring that there was no way that an Akuma could be so clumsy. Kanda walked over to her, but she didn't notice because she was still suffering soars from the fall.
"Hey!" Kanda said in a fierce loud voice, making her jump a little. She looked up making her deep blue eyes meeting his. "What happened?" Kanda asked her. Her face was full of fear so it was obvious, but he asked anyway. She shook her head.
"I don't really know myself. All I know was that this- this – this thing appeared from Yuki and killed everyone." She answered in a shaky voice. Her whole body was shaking and she held herself together to try and stop the shaking but tears were starting to fall. Akuma. Kanda thought, wondering how she got out. He was going to ask her but she screamed pointing at several more behind him. He drew out Mugen and got ready.
"Hide." Kanda said to her, she nodded her head before she got up and look for somewhere. Looks like Komui wasn't far off. Kanda thought.
"Allen! How many are there?" Lavi yelled as he and Allen did their best to dodge of the bullets.
"Ten, maybe more!" Allen yelled as he destroyed another one with his clown belt.
"What do you mean maybe more!" Lavi yelled as he was being pushed back by the attacks.
"Let's see if we can get them to spilt up!" Allen yelled.
"How do we do that?" Lavi asked.
"Choose a direction!" Allen yelled as they came into a spilt in the path.
"What?! Uh…right!" Lavi yelled as he suddenly turned right as Allen quickly turned left. About half followed Lavi while the other half followed Allen. Allen's plan seemed to work at first, until Allen saw about another five in front of him. Where did those come from?! He thought, slightly panicked. Then, just as the Akuma fired, the floor beneath him suddenly seemed to disappear beneath his feet. As soon as he completely fell though, the floor returned, making it impossible for the Akuma to follow. However, the bullets they fired hit each other and destroyed each other. He landed hard on a stone floor about ten feet below the surface. He groaned as the pain seemed to come all at once, and yes it hurt like hell.
"Uh, apparently I stepped on something I shouldn't have." A voice said. Allen slowly opened one eye while the other was shut tight. He saw Yurino, she was holding an old candle-lit lamp, being the only light in the dark.
"Need a hand?" Yurino offered, Allen grabbed it as she quickly helped him up. Yurino looked at the roof of the cavern, well more like an underground passage.
"Talk about a fall. That's, what? A ten foot drop?" Yurino said as she looked up, Allen joined her, rubbing the parts where it ache.
"Where am I?" Allen asked her.
"A secret passage built around a few hundred years ago I think. Not… Sure… why." Yurino said.
"Why are you here?" Allen asked as he turned to look at her.
"Huh? Oh, I found this place when I was trying to find a good way out of school. Apparently, this passage way goes all the way under the town. I know all of it." Yurino said.
"No, I mean, why are you still here?" Allen asked.
"Huh?" Yurino said turning to look at him.
"If you know the passages, why didn't you leave?" Allen asked her.
"What makes you think I wasn't on my way out?" Yurino said.
"The dead end tells me otherwise." Allen said pointing to the dead end she was walking to. Crap, caught. Yurino thought.
"Does it really matter what I was doing?" Yurino asked all sweet and innocent like.
"You were going to fight the Akuma, weren't you? Are you even an exorcist?" Allen asked her.
"You lost me when she mentioned Akuma." Yurino admitted, looking lost and confused.
"You don't even know what's going on, do you?" Allen asked.
"For the most part, no." Yurino answered.
"Why don't you just get out of here while you can. You won't get hurt that way." Allen said. Oh look! That sentence is back. She thought with high sarcasm.
"Listen, just because I'm not a…not a… uh… whatever you call it! That doesn't mean I can't fight!" Yurino yelled with a serious look on her face.
"You can fight, but you'll probably died before you can get even one of them down!"
"So what should I do? Just let the Earl get away with everything!? Why should he be allow to win?!" Yurino yelled.
"It's not that! It's….! You know the Earl?" Allen asked in a curious tone. Shit, said to much. Yurino thought.
"Does that even matter?" Yurino asked in a sweet innocent tone.
"Yes." Allen answered is a serious tone.
"Uh.. Oh look." Yurino said as she slowly raised her hand pointing to the Akuma coming at them from behind. "Looks like they found the entrance." Allen raised his left hand as Yurino took a small step back.
"Stay back." Allen said. Yurino gave a small smile.
"Sure." She answered.
Shiori was still behind the tree, watching Kanda slice though each Akuma as they came by, level one or two, watching him made Shiori feel weird, but very relax. The feeling was a strange one that Shiori hadn't felt before, but she like it. It wasn't long until he finished though all of the Akuma that seem to be there. Kanda gave a his usual smirk once he was confident that all of the Akuma were gone. Shiori feeling sure that everything was safe, Shiori came out slowly behind the tree. She stopped suddenly as she got a strange deep bad sensation in her stomach, as her eyes seem to gain a deep blue green. She quickly looked up without thinking as she let out a deep gasp.
"LOOK OUT!!" Shiori yelled as she pointed at something that quickly was coming down from the sky. Kanda blocked it as it pushed him down into the earth.
"Tyki." Kanda said in the deepest kind of hate.
"Good to see you, looks like you are having fun." Tyki said as he push Teeze down harder on him.
"Why are you here?" Kanda said spitting venom with every word.
"The Earl was interested why some many of his Akuma never returned or gave any contact to him when he sent them here, even level threes." Tyki said, then he looked up as he saw Shiori next to the tree, sensing something Kanda couldn't.
"But it looks like I found the reason." Tyki continued with a sinister look on his face. Kanda looked back at Shiori from the corner of his eye. The girl? He thought.
So the story's getting a bit intresting now. Your two lovely girls have been spilten up with Kanda and Allen. And why is Tyki intrested in Shiori, and what could have gotten ridden of all of those Akuma from before.
