Hey hey!! I have the day off, and listening to a lot of Nana Kitade, which for some reason puts me in a writing mood. So here we go! I've realized that without meaning to, I've made this story AU in only the fact that it's in a school setting. I'll try to incorporate some of the AU components in. And might just write another pure OURU story when I'm done with this one. Either way, please bear with me.

I still own nothing, but the Timcamapi plush my best friend made me.

"What are those things?" I'd meant to yell, but it came out more of a strangled whisper.

"Akuma." Lenalee answered. "Essentially a living weapon with a soul embedded in it. That's all the explanation I have time for. First lesson begins now!"

Wait! Lessons? With these crazy things? Could they kill me?

She called then weapons, so they could defiantly hurt us. Possibly maim.

"Where are you going?" I yelled after Lenalee as she jumped, way higher then any normal person could, and leapt at the grey monsters. Ya, she went right at them.

I found myself thinking, 'Is it too late to run away?' again.

My legs turned to jelly and I hit the ground with a thump. Somewhere far away, Kanda 'che'd. Probably at me, then he was in the battle to. His sword, now silver, instead of the black it had been, slashing away at the monsters. They all exploded, the ones Lenalee kicked, and the ones Kanda slashed, all exploded like an obscure mine field. I don't know how I was able to remember all this, logic says I would be receding inside my mind, where things made sense, but I watched it all with a clear mind.

The ghost's disappeared when the monsters exploded. So they must be the souls Lenalee mentioned.

They were real.

They were in pain.

I could feel their pain. When the monsters, Akuma, that's what they were called, when the Akuma were destroyed, the chains binding the souls vanished. They were free. I wanted to help. I wanted to free the souls.

Those poor unfortunate souls. My body wouldn't listen though. I urged it on, to fight, to move, but it didn't work. My body didn't work. And what was worse, my arm was itchy. I have a horrible body. My eye, which turns out is cursed, and my arm. A deformity I was born with, the reason I was living with Cross was because of my arm. My parents were afraid of it, and Mana, my first foster father, had died.

Though I can't remember how. But the most annoying thing about all of it is that when ever my eyes starts to react, my arm gets itchy. Really, really itchy. Well, my eye turns out to have some method to it's insanity, maybe my itchy arm does too. I remember thinking that was a stupid thought.

Just as I thought it was stupid, my body leapt into action on it's own accord. Well, not my whole body, just my arm. It turned into this, this scary giant claw like arm.

It flamed green at the shoulder, and was a almost metallic grey everywhere else. It dragged the rest of my useless body along the ground, until an Akuma was in reach, then it slashed out and destroyed the monster. Through the panic over my even more deformed arm, and that it seemed to have a mind of it's own, happiness swelled.

I could help! I could help Lenalee, my friend, I could help the poor souls, I could protect the school, and all the crazy people inside. I struggled as my arm continued to destroy, and soon, I was able to stand and make it look like I was in control. I could protect. I might be destroying, but I would destroy to protect.

I learned really quickly to take hints from my arm, and went where it tugged me, before it out right pulled me along. Gradually, it became easier, almost like neither was in control, but working as one. That sounds silly, working as one with my own arm. Logic says I'd be in charge, but I wasn't, it was really a equal effort.

"There's no end!" Lenalee yelled.

"Just keep fighting! They've got to end sometime." I answered, running past to attack the akuma coming at her.

"Allen-kun!" She yelled, so surprised. "Don't!"

SLASH!

"Don't what?" I asked turning back to her.

"Your arm..." She muttered. I looked at the frightening arm again.

"I don't get it either, but I want to help." She smiled and nodded.

"Just be careful okay? I'd never forgive myself if something happened to you." I nodded.

"Of course." That short exchange was all we needed, we knew, 'Watch my back'. I would watch hers and she would watch mine. We were comrades after all.

"Ozuchi Kozuchi!" A familiar crazy person voice yelled. "Man, man, man!"

Out of nowhere a giant hammer slammed down next to me, effectively destroying the akuma and giving me a heart attack. "Lavi! You made it!" Lenalee cried, continuing her onslaught.

"Wouldn't miss it!" Lavi replied slamming the hammer down one again. I gathered there, I still can't pin point what took me so long, but it wasn't till then that I realized the E programme trained people like them, us really, to fight these monsters.

"Oh hey Allen." Lavi grinned, because only Lavi could find time to grin in a battle.

"Hey Rabbit, we could use a fire seal!" Kanda yelled.

"Rabbit?" I pondered out loud.

"Move!" Lenalee came running back to me and grabbed my sleeve pulling me back.

"Hi Ban!" Several circles with either Asian characters of question marks appeared around Lavi's raised hammer. He slammed it down, through the red seal and flames erupted from the hammer, destroying multiple akuma.

"Why doesn't he just do that a bunch of times and get it over with?" I asked Lenalee.

"It drains the stupid Rabbit's energy." Kanda answered. "Every attack is draining, higher level drains more, if you over use, you sign your own death sentence."

That made sense, the rabbit part didn't.

"Why does he call Lavi 'Rabbit'?"

Kanda growled, "Don't talk about me, like I'm not here."

We were surrounded again and went back to the battle.

"He has nick names for everyone. I think he only remembers the names of the people he deems important. It's like how he calls you 'Moyashi'." I attacked to avoid responding, I didn't like being called Moyashi at all.

"Haha! Moyashi?" Lavi laughed as he ran past me. I felt the anger vein in my forehead. But I ignored it for the sake of the battle.

"Is there no end to them?" I yelled.

"Heaven Compass. North Crime." Needles flying everywhere, I seen the familiar old man silhouette of Bookman. Apparently there was no end to the E people either.

A sea of explosions, yells of various things like 'Watch out!' or 'Thank you!' or 'Idiot!' from Kanda of course. He wasn't and still isn't a very nice person. Eventually, all the Akuma were gone.

"I don't know much, or anything really, but that seemed kind of pointless." I panted, my arm returned to it's normal deformed appearance. Red and vieny, with a cross shape on the back of my hand. My red hand is actually larger then my other hand. Miraculously, my grey sweater returned to how it was before, un ripped, long sleeves hiding my hands.

"Are you alright Allen-kun?" Lenalee asked, at my side.

I nodded, "Tired, very tired, and confused."

She smiled, "I understand. Rest first, I'll help you, I planned to show you the dorm wing anyway. We'll explain things tomorrow." I nodded weakly and felt her under my arm. "C'mon now. Right foot, left foot."

I tried my hardest to walk along, and hold most of my own weight, but it was almost impossible.

"There you are!" Lenalee cried, relived to... well someone. I don't know who, I was so tired. "Toma! Help me get him to the dorm. The rest of you please clean up."

"Yes Lenalee-dono." Then, my weight was taken away from me as someone else supported it. "So this is Walker-dono? Everyone's been talking about him."

The words were garbling. It remained of the time I'd had my wisdom teeth pulled and the drugs gave me a really sick disoriented feeling.

"Yes, I think they'll have more to talk about now. Given his performance today. I'm sure now, he's-" And at that crucial moment, I blacked out.

W00t! That was a pretty easy chapter. I wrote it in one day. A few hours really. It was just pouring out. Most of it was a battle, but the action was lacking, in my mind. I'm sure most if not all of you agree. Three chapters and we still don't have any solid answers. Not as bad as Katsura thought, took her time she did. Answers in like the seventh chapter, and continuing little bits of important info through out. Any way, I won't compare myself to someone like Katsura, as she is far more amazing then I will ever be. I am wondering how I'm doing as Allen though, even if I suck I can handle it. I'm into this writing style, so I won't be changing it, but I can practice and improve as needed. Review plz.
