Beauty and the Samurai.

Allen was all set to go by the late afternoon; he climbed up onto Timcampy's back and into the saddle and looked down at Lenalee, who was standing next to Allen's horse.

"Be careful Allen, I don't want to lose you too," Lenalee whispered as she stared at the ground sadly.

Allen smiled softly, he knew how much she has been though, and does not want to put her though anymore; they only have each other after all.

"I promise Lenalee, I'll be back before you know it, and all in one piece," Allen whispered back to her as he reached down to rub her back to try to give her comfort. "You take care of yourself, promise me that?" He asked her gently.

"I will Allen, see you soon. Good luck" Lenalee said softly and she finally looked up at Allen and smiled slightly.

"Thanks" he said as he turned back to the road ahead of him. "Let's go Tim" He commanded, and snapped the reigns and Tim started to slowly move forward, he looked back and waved at Lenalee, and she waved back.

Lenalee stood there until she couldn't see Allen anymore.


A few hours later and Allen's horrible sense of direction got him and Timcampy lost, he had map, but he still got lost, it was getting dark, so Allen got his lantern out to give himself something to light his way.

"We should be there by now" Allen muttered to himself and then came to a V in the road," two paths, which one to take?" Allen thought.

Timcampy wanted to go left, but Allen's stupidity and lack of sense of direction got in the way.

"No Tim, let's take this one" Allen said as he pointed to the right path. Tim didn't like the look of that one, it was dark, creepy and just seemed plain dead, while the one Tim wanted to take was bight and full of life.

So Tim though for a moment, looking between the two paths, and decided, he still wanted to go left, so he tried to go left, but Allen pulled at the reigns to force Tim around.

"Now Tim, it's a short-cut, we'll get there quicker this way" Allen said as he forced Tim to go down the path that the horse didn't want to go down.

"Tim was being very cautious of his surroundings, while he master, didn't give a flying fish at what was going on around him.

A few minutes later Timcampy heard something in the bushes, it sounded like something running, it spooked Tim, and he started to slowly back up, and then a wolfs howl sounded though the night, that's when Allen looked up.

"T-Tim...I-I th-think, w-we should...turn around" Allen muttered, more to himself than his horse, a look of fear all over his face.

Tim started to get more frantic as he moved back faster and faster each time as the wolfs howls increased, the trailer hit a large tree and woke a load of bats that were sleeping in the tree; they flew around Allen and Tim. That was the last straw for Tim.

Tim reared up in fright and ran blindly though the forest, Allen had to duck many times, so the tree branches did not hit him, they came to a clearing and Tim skidded to a halt as they came to a steep cliff edge that seemed bottomless.

Tim back up so him and Allen were out of danger, Tim was still frightened and reared up again, and Allen wasn't so lucky this time.

It started to rain at this point, it was only a light drizzle though.

Allen couldn't hold on had taken him by surprise, he feel off and landed on the hard ground with a thump, Timcampy ran off though the woods with some wolfs chasing him.

Allen groaned as he slowly go up onto his feet and brushed himself off, he then stopped and his head snapped up and stared wide eyes at a couple of very hungry and very aggressive looking wolfs.

"Shit" He muttered and the high tailed it to anywhere, the wolfs gave chase. Luck was not on Allen's side, yet again, as he tripped and fell down a few feet, he looked up and his silver eyes widened at the sight of a castle.

Allen got up and ran towards the black Iron Gate and shook the bars as hard as he could, the wolfs were approaching, fast. He needed to get away before he became dog meat.

"OPEN UP! COME ON! OPEN DAMNIT!" Allen screamed at the Heavens as he shook the gate harder, this time luck was on Allen's side for once as the gate swung open, creaking as if they haven't been used in ages.

Allen then slammed them shut and walked slowly up to the castle, staring in awe at it. The castle looked creepy.

The rain then turned into a down pour, Allen got socked, so he ran toward to the main, massive door. When Allen reached the doors he slowly pushed them open and pocked his head in.

The entrance hall was large, but too dark Allen could barely see what was right in front of his face.

Against his better judgement, Allen stepped into the castle, it was better than being out in the freezing cold rain with hungry wolfs wanting to rip you limb from limb, Allen silently closed the door, and rubbed his arms to try to get warmth into his arms.

"Oh look at the poor boy Two Spots, he's cold, wet and obviously got lost in the woods, he needs help," a hushed voice said.

"Shut up idiot, maybe he'll go away if we keep it down" another voice snapped.

Allen turned around and tried to find the source of the voices, but found nothing.

"Hello?" Allen called out "Is anyone there? I-I'm afraid i lost my horse in the woods and need a place to stay the night" Allen said to the darkness.

"Ahh, Two spots, don't be so cruel," One of the voices said. "Of course good sir, you're welcome here," the voice continued.

"Who's there?" Allen asked the darkness, a little fearful, couldn't blame him for everything he's been though one night.

Something tapped his hand lightly, it felt like metal.

Allen's head whipped around and his eyes darted down to find a rose gold candlestick...grinning at him?

"WHAT THE HELL!" Allen shouted as he stumbled away and landed on his arse, he looked up wide surprise silver eyes stared at the objects.

"Oh now you done it Lavi, you idiot" scolded the oak wood clock, "Couldn't keep your mouth shut" the clock continued.

"Oh hush Two spots" the candle named Lavi waved the clock off "as long as Yu doesn't know we're fine" Lave whispered to the clock.

The clock was about to snap back at the candlestick, when Allen picked him up and started to fiddle with the gears, trying to figure out how it talked.

"Where's the damn switch to turn it off?" Allen muttered to himself, as he tried to find the so-called 'switch'.

"Do you mind?" The clock snapped and smacked Allen's hands until he let go. "I am Howard Link and this idiot candle is Lavi" Link said.

"I-I'm A-Allen Wa-Walker" Allen stuttered, still surprised that the supposed inanimate objects were talking and moving.

"Ah, right this way Allen, come on let's get you warmed by the fire" Lavi said as he hopped his way into a den, he led Allen to a big dark chair that sat in front of a huge fire place. "Come on, sit down".

Allen got comfortable in the chair, as soon as he was comfortable a blanket was thrown over his small frame.

"Thank you" Allen said.

"Lavi! What do you think you're doing? Not the masters chair!" Link exclaimed as he hobbled over.

"Calm down, Yu's upstairs being pissed off as usual, he doesn't come down this time of night," Lavi whispered.

"Would you like some tea?" A timid voice asked, almost scared came from beside Allen.

"Miranda, it's ok, Allen don't bite" Lavi said jokingly.

Allen turned to see a dark, plain teapot with a lighter brown cup.

"Yes please" Allen answered, but before Miranda could move the doors slammed open, the force sent a huge gust of wind into the room and blew out any fire light in the room.

"Why is a stranger in my castle?" A low voice growled; whoever it was didn't sound too happy.

"Now Yu, calm down there's a perfectly reasonable explain-"Lavi was cut off by a roar.

"I'm going to die, I know I'm going to die, this is the end of my life" Allen's mind panicked. He was suddenly ripped off the chair and thrown across the room, he crashed into a small table. He looked up to find a black furry creature.

The creature was big and very tall, it towered over Allen's tiny frame, it also had sharp claws and fangs.

"What the hell you staring at?" The creature shouted, storming his way over to Allen.

"Nothing!" Allen squeaked out, jumped to his feet, and made a mad dash towards the door, but the beast was faster and was in seconds in front of Allen yet again.

"So you've come to stare at the beast have you!" he thing demanded, it was downright pissed off.

"N-No, pl-please...I-I ju-just ne-need a pl-place t-to st-stay" Allen stuttered.

"Oh I'll give you a place to stay" the beast growled and then picked Allen up by his collar and dragged him away.
