Party Poison POV
"Where am I?" Crowned Clown (Allen) asked while starting to get up from the table he had been laying on.
"You're in our hideout, and you probably shouldn't get up yet. You've been wounded." I said.
"Oh, this? I'll be fine, don't worry! I've had wounds that were much worse than this." he said, looking indifferent.
Just then Jet Star and Dr. Death Defying walked into the room.
"I see that Crowned Clown's awake now." Dr. Death said, turning to the boy. "Now, exactly what were those monsters you were fighting? You don't have to answer now if you don't want to, I'm just curious. We've never seen anything like that out in the Zones before."
Crowned Clown sighed before answering. "I might as well tell you now to get it over with. Those monsters you saw were akuma, and I'm an Exorcist. I'm here on a mission to aid you because the enemies of the organization I work for, The Black Order, have recently allied themselves with Better Living Industries." he said, looking ready to answer the flood of questions sure to come as if he's done this a million times.
"What the hell are akuma, and aren't you a little young to be a preist, kid?" Dr. Death Defying asked, looking shocked.
"Akuma are living weapons created by my enemy, The Millennium Earl, to destroy all humans. They are created from tragedy. When a person loses someone they love, the Earl goes to them and tells them that he can bring the souls of their loved ones back. That turns them into akuma, who have to follow the Earl's every order. He then orders the new akuma to kill its creator, and wear their creator's skin to blend in with humans. Also, I'm not the kind of Exorcist you're thinking of. I have a substance called "Innocence" within my left arm, which causes it to be black. This Innocence turns into a weapon used to destroy the akuma, my Anti-akuma weapon." He said, keeping his face straight.
"I only have one more question for you." Dr. Defying said "How did you get white hair and that scar?"
Crowned Clown steeled himself, and look towards us.
"I got both in the same incident 4 years ago. I had been abandoned by my birth parents as a baby because of my left arm. When I was 6 I was adopted by a man named Mana." I looked into his eyes, remembering him having that nightmare. "We traveled together, and not long after we formed a father-son bond. One day, Mana died. I felt helpless, I felt like I had lost everything. Of course, the Earl took his chance. I turned my father into an akuma. He scratched my left eye, cursing me and giving me this scar which gives me the ability to detect the akuma. Before he was about to kill me under the Earl's orders, my left arm activated on its own, attacking Mana. The Earl ran off, and my arm dragged me over to Mana. Mana turned to me and told me that he loved me, and begged me to destroy him. It was then my left eye detected Mana's soul in the akuma, and my left arm destroyed him. I was so shocked that my hair turned white. That was when I met the man who trained me to become an Exorcist, and here I am now." He said, looking into his lap after he was done. Dr. Death Defying and Jet Star left the room, stunned. I got up and left too, decided to give him some privacy. I glanced at him one last time before I walked out the door. I saw him still staring at his lap, and I saw a tear fall there. Poor kid.
