Here's the second chapter.

Very rushed, since I had to live up to the deadline I myself put down in my other fanfiction 'Run, Rabbit, Run'. DX That was stupid.

But I did half before; I just got a temporary writer's block. So Chapter 2 won't be as good as Chapter 1. D: Noo.

And it's not as funny, but I tried to fit in some funny parts. I tried, that counts, right? :3 And the next chapter will probably be done..in maybe a week. Or two, since I'm so busy with school.

Disclaimer: I don't own D.Gray-man.

Kari of Shadow: Thank you. :D I feel so happy now. And I'm glad you like my writing style.

Yugi Kitten: Thank you too. Although I think that this chapter isn't very well-done..

SilentKiller1: Yes, poor, poor Kanda. :P

AyaKuro: Thank you. :D

Kaichou-Chan: Thank you. :D

AiraMiru: You can call me Chrono, that's fine. And I liked that line too. XD And your English isn't that bad; it's pretty good.

Kini-Ainotsuki: Thank you. :D

Lala-tan: Thank you. But I'm kind of scared that my story won't live up to your expectations..I hope it does.

Devils Melody: Thank you. XD This chapter probably won't make you smile all the time, but I think the next chapter will.

Chapter 2

Kanda carried his violin case and his score, walking along the sidewalk. Lavi followed him at every twist and turn.

'Just like a stalker,' Kanda thought absentmindedly.

The red-haired teen grinned cheekily, imaginary flowers flying about him as he tailed the bitter black-haired one. "Hey Yuu, you think we'll get in?"

"I'll get in; not so sure about you," snorted Kanda.

"Yuu, you're so mean!" cried Lavi.

"Shut up," replied Kanda curtly.

After walking for who knows how long, they stopped at one looming building, ominous in all of its creepy old-fashioned glory.

Lavi 'wow'ed.

They both entered the large building after getting past the gates with their paper confirming that they were both entrants for the musical test to get them into Black Order Academy.

A man waved his hand and gestured to the left. "This way to the musical test," he said, a stern look adorning his rugged features.

Lavi happily obliged, excluding Kanda, and they headed to the musical test area.

Three judges sat at a table. A man with frazzled gray hair, a beard, a moustache, and glasses sat on the right. In the middle, a woman with blonde hair covering one side of her face and a nasty scar was seated in the chair. A man with flaming red hair and a mask covering one side of his face was seated in the left one.

Komui flashed a sparkly smile. "Welcome to the Black Order Academy Musical Test! We will get started right away. This here is Froi Tiedoll, Klaud Nine, and Cross Marian, our judges. Now, for Entrant #1, Miranda Lotto!"

A terrified woman stumbled onto the stage with her clarinet. "My piece is T-time Record," she stammered, and she almost dropped her clarinet.

Cross raised his eyebrow, and he scribbled something down.

At once, she began to play. The first part seemed to be riddled with squeaks, but she eventually calmed her nerves and got into the flow of the piece.

A smooth wavy tune sung through the air.

A teen with white hair and a red scar accidentally bumped into Kanda. "Ah, I'm sorry!" he whispered softly.

The black-haired one glared and hissed just as quietly, "Watch it, moyashi."

Allen glared back. "I'm not a moyashi; my name is Allen Walker!" he protested, making sure to keep his voice down.

Kanda kept his eyes ahead. "Che." He tightened his grip on his violin slightly.

Lavi waved at Allen. "I'm Lavi, Yuu-chan's best friend! This here is Yuu-chan!" he said enthusiastically, yet keeping his volume low so not to disturb the performer.

"Yuu?" Allen replied innocently. "His name is Yuu?"

"Moyashi, call me that again and I swear I will kill you, when the clock strikes 12. And I'll throw your dead body away in a river and watch the water turn red with blood," Kanda growled menacingly. He whipped his head around to watch Miranda make a tiny mistake in her piece.

"I think he's a serial killer," said Allen bluntly. "Who was a writer," he added as an afterthought.

The long-haired one glared, clearly offended. "I am not a serial killer or a writer. Shut up."

Allen's eyes spoke of triumph in the dim light of the wing. He smiled wryly and turned away to watch Miranda bow uncertainly and scamper off. He whispered a compliment as she walked past, her worried expression dissolving into a relieved one.

"Now for Entrant #2, Arystar Krory!"

And so it went, more entrants, and more entrants, meaning more performances. Kanda wasn't impressed with any of them at all, while Allen listened to each one with shining eyes, but you know, that's just Kanda and Allen's his opposite.

"Now for Entrant #14, Allen Walker!"

Allen stepped onto the stage, walking to the grand piano. He bowed carefully. "My piece is The 14th's Lullaby."

After a deep breath, he began to play.

His fingers danced over the keys slowly, almost like a waltz. Gloved fingers manipulated the keys on the left side of the piano, and pale ones controlled the right. An indescribable sound rose from the piano.

It made everything seem different; no, it was everything.

Lavi choked on his spit, hacking violently. And silently. He had forgotten about what he was doing.

He looked at Kanda, who had crossed his arms and focused his entire attention on Allen.

"Yuu-chan-" He was interrupted by his own quiet cough. "Yuu, do you like it?"

Kanda didn't reply for a second.

Then he whipped his head around, frowning.

Whap!

Lavi fell back, struck by a whip.

Unfortunately, that whip was Kanda's ponytail. "Auugh, Yuu-chan, my eyes-!"

"Usagi, you have only one eye," Kanda deadpanned.

Allen stood up and bowed.

'Damn, I didn't get to hear the last couple of measures thanks to the idiot who choked on his own spit.' Kanda thought.

Allen grinned at them both when he walked offstage.


I think it was okay.

And I know, it's kind of short. Sowwy.

I hope you liked it!

And I'm very happy with this fanfiction; it has more reviews than I thought. And more reviews means more inspiration to write!

Speaking of inspiration, I was just struck by an idea for Yullen one-shot with a lot of angst. And another Yullen one-shot about a peach tree. : But I'm kind of out of ideas..Help me in the reviews?

Review! :3
