Chapter 11, Knives

Kit awoke with a start. There was a pain in her left arm and right leg. "That was a really bad dream! My arm and leg still hurt!" She tried to move her left arm. "Aah! I hurts to move!" Kit looked at her arm. "And why's it in a sling?"

"You broke your arm while fighting the akuma," said a strange blonde woman.

"Who are you?" Kit asked after being startled by the woman.

"My name is Gracia Heidrich. But my friends call me 'Knives.' I would prefer it if you called me Knives," the woman answered. "What is your name?"

"I'm Kit Elizabeth Stanton. You can call me Kit." She looked at her lap for a moment, then looked back at Knives. "Where's Allen?" she asked, worry etched in her voice.

"Who?"

"The boy who was with me. Silver hair, blue eyes, red left hand, curse above his left eye," Kit described Allen for Knives.

"Oh. Him.He's over there, being treated by Ryumaru." Knives pointed to a tent not far from where them. "You're an exorcist, right?"

"Yes. How could you tell?"

"Your uniform has the 'Rose Cross' of the Black Order on it. And seeing as you're here ant not at the H.Q. you must be on a mission." Kit looked at Knives like 'how the hell did you know that?' Knives chuckled. "You don't need to worry. Your mission was a success."

"How? We didn't even reach our destination!"

Knives chuckled again. "You simple, simple girl. Ryumaru and I are the exorcists you were sent to retrieve."

Kit looked at her lap. "I want to see Allen." Kit tried to stand up, but she fell back doun. A sharp pain shot through her injured leg. "AAAH!"

"Your leg is also broken. I'll take you to see Allen. But first you should eat something." Knives reached into a bag and pulled out a slice of bread. "You can munch on this while I finish cooking the stew." She pointed to a pot over a fire.

"Thank you." Kit took a bite of the bread.

"Your welcome."

So the two chatted for a while. Kit asked Knives if she had a deck of playing cards.

"Why do you want a deck of playing cards?" Knives asked. "You gonna play solitaire or somthing?"

"Not quite. I just want to see something. That's all."

"Okay." Knives handed Kit a deck of playing cards.

Kit took them from their box and seperated the jokers from the deck. she then layed three of them in a row, then five in a row below that, and five more below that. These, if spelled out, would be 'Kit Loves Allen.' she then placed every card on top of each card, until all of the cards were layed down, then she picked up the stack that the last card had hit. She repeated this until there were only two stacks left, at which time, she placed one on top of the other. She layed them all out face up in two rows. The first row was: 8, Q, Q, 9, K, 3, 10, 5, 9, 8, 3, 8, 2, A, J, 7, 5, 7, 4, 4, Q, 7, 8, 7, 6, 9, 7, 10. The second row was: A, 2, 2, 4, 3, 6, 5, 2, 10, J, 6, J, 6, J, K, Q, A, A, K, 4, 3, K, 9. Kit just stared at the cards for a moment, a blank, yet happy, look was apperant on her face.

"What's up?" Knives asked, waving her hand infront of Kit's eyes.

"It's the result of the love fortune. In order of apearence, two queens: I'm the queen of his heart. Two fours: forever. Two twos: together. Jack, king, queen: A sexual attraction. Two aces: always." Kit looked at Knives, happiness writen all over her face. Tears of happiness were running down her face. "That means he loves me and not Komui! That's a good thing, Knives!"

Knives had a look of total confusion. "Uuuhmmm...who's this Komui girl? Did Allen cheet on you with her?"

"What are you talking about? Komui's not a girl! Komui's a man! And yes, Allen did cheet on me with him," Kit pouted. "As pay back, I put pink hair dye in his shampoo when he was on a mission somewhere, I washed all of his white clothes with my reds using normal bleach so they'd turn pink, I put ipikak in his drink, melted a chocolate laxetive into hot fudge and poured it over a bowl of icecream, put plastic wrap over the toilet seats the same day, and greeted him from a mission by snogging with a GIRL!"

By the time Kit was finished listing everything she had done to Allen, Knives was sweatdroping.

"You must have been really mad at him for that."

Kit looked at Knives with a 'naw duh' look. There was an aquard silence after that. Then Knives broke the silence by asking Kit why Allen was so special to her. The red head was silent for a moment, her face turning red.

"Well? Why is he so special to you?" Knives repeated when Kit didn't answer.

"Well, it's kinda hard to explain, but it's almost like we're conected by something..." Kit fell silent once more.

"Something...magical?" Knives asked, raising an eyebrow.

Kit giggled. "You could say that. It's like things just clicked between us when we met for the first time." She looked up at the sky. It was a dark, inky black. "Then...when we were on the ship heading to the H.Q..." Kit stopped here, remembering that blissful day.

"Well, what happened?"

Kit giggled to herself. "Something wonderful! And now...well..." She giggled once more.

"You're pregnant, and Allen is the father?"

The red head gasped. how could she know? she thought.

Knives tasted the stew. "Ah," She poured some in a bowl and handed it to Kit. "Soup's on." She then proceeded to pour her own bowl. The two sat in silence for a while, eating their dinner. Then after a while, Kit broke the silence.

"So, how long have you known Ryumaru?" she asked.

"For about...five years. I met him in Japan. I was born here, in Germany. How about you and Allen?"

Kit thought for a while, counting on her fingers. "About...four months."

"FOUR MONTHS? How many months pregnant are you?"

Again Kit counted on her fingers. "About...four months." Knives smacked her forhead.

"Barely into a relationship and already pregnant...Kids these days."

"Who are you calling a kid? I'm sixteen, thank you!" Kit put her hands on her hips.

"That's still a kid in comparison to me. I'm twenty-two."

Kit pouted for a moment, eating her stew. Enter long aquward silence. There was much eating in the process and with it, the finishing of eating stew. The red head looked at Knives after a while. Then, "Well, we're done with our stew, so, can we go see Allen?"

Knives chuckled. "Yes, we can go." So Knives picked up Kit bridal-style to not irritate her broken arm. Kit still hissed at the pain in her right leg. "Sorry."

"It's okay, I'll be fine."

And so, Knives took Kit to see Allen.
