Chapter Three: The Real Allen

"Dammit, kid. Your gonna die now! No one dares even lays a finger on me!" The gangster yelled at Red and threw a kick at him, but Red dodged. "Pretty fast, but your outnumbered." He snapped his fingers and his other members came. They each held a gun and pointed it at Red. Everyone screamed and started to run.

"Die, you Moyashi."The gangster shot at Red in the left arm, causing him to fall over to the ground. But to everyone's surprise, he was still able to move. He got up and glared. "No one insults me, you dumbass." Red snapped as he punched the gangster in the head, knocking him out.

The gang members gasped. "He took out the boss with only one hit?!" Red snickered. "You weaklings don't know who your messing with. You picked the wrong clown." He said as he quickly kicked all their guns out of their hands and knocked all of them out.

The brown-haired boy sighed as he looked around. Suprise had struck him when saw these strangely brave people who stayed at the fight. 'People are still here? I thought they would run away...Dammit. If the cops arrest me again, then Cosmo'll kill me.' Red thought as he glared at the group.

Lenalee and the others stared at Allen in shock. Did he seriously just do all that? Say all that? This was Allen before he'd met Mana? They called themselves his friend?! They saw that he was glaring at each of them. "You people better not say a word of this to the cops." Red threatened. Lenalee was flabbergasted. Red went back inside the circus.

"Wow..." Lavi said in shock. Kanda looked a bit surprised as well. Lavi then put on a smile. "He'a amazing! I mean, who knew the Moyashi can beat up guys like that?" Lenalee sighed. "Allen..." Lenalee mumbled. 'All this time he had to suffer this pain? He never even once spoke of this!' She thought in sadness.

'Did he really think of us...as friends? Wouldn't he have told us about this?' She wondered.

Miranda started to walk inside the Circus. "What're you doing, Miranda?" Lenalee asked the woman. "We need to find Allen and tell him about what's going on so he can activate his innocence and we can change him back to normal." Miranda said thoughtfully. They nodded as they snuck in the back of the Circus to find the employees room. They saw a muscular man, and Allen standing in front of him, crossed arms. "Who is he?" Krory wondered out loud.

"Dammit, Red! How many freakin' times have I told you to NOT FIGHT IN PUBLIC? Do you want our circus to shut down because of your violent acts?!" He basically screamed at Red as he hit him for like the hundredth time. Lenalee and the others figured that Allen's real name was Red, due to his arm. Red made a "Tch" sound and looked to the ground.

"It's not my fault. That bastard threatened me for bumping into him." He snarled. Cosmo sighed.

"Allen's younger self is just the exact opposite of the other him." Lenalee mumbled.

"Yeah, and who knew the Moyashi had an abusive boss. Why is he even still working at the circus if he gets abused?!" Lavi muttered in frustration as they continued to watch.

Cosmo left after saying, "Be ready for your next act, Red."

Red stood there, just staring at the wall. He punched the wall In rage and marched outside, where Lenalee and the others were. "Quickly! Hide behind the dumpster!" Lavi shouted as he threw himself at the dumpster. "Eww no!" Lenalee whispered. "He's COMING!"

"Ughh...FINE." Red put on a black sweater and put his hands on his pockets, walking with his body bent down. He walked down the streets and just kept walking as the others followed. Red wasn't stupid.

"Why're you guys following me?" He asked, turning around to find the nervously laughing teens. "U-Umm...we just wanted to say...that your an awesome clown!" Lavi said as an excuse. Red intensified his glare. "I have worked here all my life and never have I seen you idiots." They all sobbed for a second (besides Kanda) at his mention of them being idiots.

"Well, I'm Lenalee. This here's Lavi. There's Miranda and Krory. And Kanda's right here." She explained to Red. Red looked at them suspiciously. "And why do I care who you are?" Lenalee looked kind of ticked off. "W-Well...we just wanted to meet you!"

Red sighed and introduced himself. "The name's Red."

"Well that's an odd name." Lenalee said, causing Red to shiver in anger. "They call me Red 'cause my arm is red." They didn't looked surprised. They continued to walk.

"R-Red?" Lenalee asked slowly as they kept walking. He stopped and turned. "What?" He growled. "Why...Why're you so...well...grumpy all the time?" She asked, wanting to know the truth about Allen, or Red. He looked as though she'd asked him about something annoying. He sighed.

"I was abandoned by my parents...they thought I was a demon, due to my arm..." He began. Everyone already started to feel bad for him. Only now did they realize that his smiles and laughs were all fake. In reality, he was suffering from trauma. "So I had to grow up on the streets. I searched for a job, and the people at the Circus took me in. That bastard Cosmo may be annoying, but the others are pretty damn cool." He explained to them, causing a smile to appear across their faces.

"So a street rat like me liked by no one would obviously act this way. I'm sick of it." He concluded as he continued to walk. "Why're you even here anyway? And why am I telling you all of this?"

"Allen...I never knew. I'm so sorry. We all are." Lenalee mumbled to herself. "Yeah, sorry! We'll see each other later during you performance! We can't wait!" Lavi cheered. Red looked surprisingly a little happy, but still held a straight face.

"Never really had fans...thanks...I guess." Lavi instantly jumped up. "The Moyashi said thank you! Ya-"

"What the hell did you just call me?" He shot a threatening glare at Lavi causing him to gulp. "Sorry! Sorry..."

'He's just like Kanda with me calling him, Yuu...' Lavi thought.

Red looked at Kanda. "Who's the girly samurai?" Red asked, causing everyone to gulp because he just insulted Kanda. To everyone's surprise, Kanda didn't snap. "I'm a male, for your information. Let's go." Kanda gave everyone a look that they should not cause him any further trouble for now. "Alright! See you at the Circus tomorrow night, All- I mean, Red!" Lavi waved goodbye as the others ran away.

"We need to get All- Or Red to trust us. Then we can explain to him about the Noah so everything can change back to normal." Lenalee whispered to them. "I agree. It's painful to watch him so unhappy and scary all the time!" Krory shivered in fear.

Red looked at them disappearing in the distance, and he cracked up a smile.

"Strange people...They didn't care about my arm." He whispered through the night as he headed home.
