The Train ride to the small town of Caronia was silent. Both Exorcists read over the mission details. They had many stops to make for the next couple months. In the details of the Mission was that a large amount random Akuma attacks have been happening to also random villages. There seems to be no point to the attacks other than to cause havoc, and destruction. Many people were moving to the southern parts of Europe because of the fear of the next Akuma attack. Lavi instantly knew that Kanda was not happy about this mission. Either for the fact that he and Lavi would be spending a great amount of time together or that this was just a pain in the ass. The train suddenly stopped and announcing that they had reached their destination. Kanda silently got up while carrying Mugen, and followed the redhead exorcist out to the train station. There sitting on a bench in front of the train was their finder, he was supposed to lead us through the first town and explain what had been going on so we would have a general idea for the other towns. As the Finder whose name was Kane lead us through the town it was obvious that there had been an Akuma attack. Buildings were destroyed and scattered in every direction, scorch marks on the ground, crying women and children surrounded the area.
"Witnesses say there was about 6-10 Akuma that attacked." The finder told the two exorcists.
Lavi just looked around and tried to push down the feeling of sadness in his "non existing" heart, and tried to remember everything that was later to be put in records. Kanda just looked around but unnoticed by anybody he was holding on to Mugen very tightly to try and calm himself down and face the fact that this had already happened and that there was nothing he could do about it.
"Was anybody killed" Lavi asked though he already knew the answer.
"Yes, 16 people were killed" Kane answered. "It was a massacre they had no chance" Kane added.
"But the question is why did they attack the town and just leave, they are usually attracted to innocence, but this seems to have no reason at all."Kane asked his question directed at the exorcists behind him.
"Che, who knows" Kanda answered.
"Well here we are this in the inn that has been offered for you two to stay in, though I do have some bad news as you can see this inn was not damaged and so the people who lost their homes are staying here for the time being, they are completely overbooked but I asked them to save a room for the Black Order."
"Wait did you say a room, as in one room?" Lavi asked.
"That's the bad news since they are so overbooked they could only save one room, so sorry to say but you will have to share a room."
A sigh could be heard coming from Kanda who just glared at the inn.
"If there is not anything else you need help with I need to be on my way"
"No that's fine thanks for all the help" Lavi said to Kane. With that Kane headed toward the end of town and Lavi and Kanda were left standing in front of the Inn.
"Let's get this over with" Kanda said in a gruff voice, full of aggravation.
They went into the inn and got the key for their room and headed up to the third floor. Their faces fell when they saw that there was only one bed. It had been a long day and the two were very tired.
"Yu I'll take the floor" but before he could say anything else Kanda interrupted him" Baka usagi take the bed, I'm sure it's a piece of crap anyways."
Kanda settled down on the floor against the wall and laid Mugen on his shoulder with him holding on to it. Lavi plopped down on the bed not even bothering to take his boots off and fell into a deep sleep. Kanda could hear the rabbits breathing begin to slow down signaling that he was falling asleep. When the breath all together evened out showing that Lavi was asleep he let himself also fall into a not so deep sleep.
