Me~ Sorry for the weird chapter title but I couldn't resist. I mean, come on, they're in France! Anyway, this is the 3rd chapter and thank you for reading. Remember, this is 2 years ago, so Kanda is 16 and Hana is 14. Remember, Allen did not come yet!

I do not own D. Gray man.

Chapter: 3~ London Bridge is Falling Down

KANDA POV

This was warm. I sighed and snuggled in a bit more. I'm glad I wore a shirt underneath that disgusting uniform. I blinked. Where was I.....?

"Kanda...."

I looked down. She stared back up at me, gold meeting blue. I realized my arms were around her. I flew back, jumping off the bed like a bullet. "!!"

"That was a slight exaggeration on your part there Kanda. I'm not contagious or anything," she said, peeking from the side of the bed.

"$%&*$" I muttered under my breath, my face burning up. I looked away from her. What was I doing earlier? Ugh, how would I know?

"What colorful language," she observed, "Now I hope we didn't wake anyone up from your sarcastic arousing."

"Che." What a hell of an awakening that was. I got up slowly from the floor. My finger pulled through my hair, freeing the knots that had developed overnight.

I knew this mission wasn't gonna be good. From the minute the bastard had an idea of me as a girl. He better have his coffin ready when I get back there.

"Ow." I turned my head to her faint cry. She was digging into her pocket, pulling out a thin silver wire that was now covered with fresh blood. She began mumbling to herself about 'hurt', 'curses', 'that akuma'.

"What the hell's that?" I asked, moving over to her, who was still sitting on the bed. She lifted the cord so I could see.

"I found it on the body."

"And you didn't say anything?" I asked, annoyed.

"I forgot." I really wanted to punch her now, but held back. She ignored my violent aura and continued to stare at the string. "It's sharp." No, duh, if it cut you that badly.

"Dump it."

"Huh?" she looked up, slight surprise emitting from her stony face.

"We just have to find that akuma and Innocence. We may have confirmed that this is the weapon but that's about all the use of it. Trash it."

She gloomed out, but willingly got up and dropped in the trash can near the door. "By the way, Kanda, your curls came out. And the mascara is running," she pointed at me.

"I'm washing them off. I don't need it."

"Eh, is that so? Let us confirm that when we walk out of this room."

I twitched. The urge to whip out Mugen and dice her became very hard to resist. I glared at her, threatening her death in with my eyes. She was the only one alive that was stupid enough to be unable to perceive that.

"Are you going to risk it?" she inquired, obviously trying to torment me, yet again. I growled slightly. She ignored my façade altogether.

"I take that as a no. So, let's get to work," she said to me her sweet acting voice, a devious smile of a future victory spreading on her face.

"Damn you," was the last words before I was dragged to the bathroom.

SELE POV

"Don't be loud," I warned, covering his mouth. "That would lead to much suspicious, no?" I received another infamous glare.

I moved closer to put on the black ink on the brush, which Lenalee almost threatened me, to make sure to bring. As I moved closer he moved back, almost falling over. I stared at him.

"What?"

"Don't go so close." I gave him an expression of question.

"How am I supposed to put it on then?" I said, tipping my head slightly to one side, emphasizing my point. He 'Che'd under his breath. Kanda is weird like that sometimes.

"Alas, I guess we might go out and have everyone admit we are in some af-"a hand slapped over my mouth before I finished. I heard a snarl behind me.

"Just shut up and get done."

Funny, Kanda, funny. I sighed and begun where I left off.

"It's getting in my eye," he complained harshly.

"No, it's not."

"You suck at this."

"I know. Please save your complaints for the court." He glared into my eyes. I stared back. We were locked into that eyeing fight for three minutes until there was a loud bang at the door. Both of us nearly tripped in surprise.

"Stay here," I commanded seriously. He waited on the stool he was sitting on in the bathroom while I closed the door behind me. I answered the knock (bang).

"Hello?" I said groggily, feigning a just awoken girl. It was the mistress from the yesterday.

"Oh, good morning, dear, did I wake you? Sorry. I brought your breakfast," she beamed. She peeked around inside. "Where's your sister?"

"She's in the bathroom. Nee-san is more of a morning person than I am," I said, putting on a small sheepish smile. She nodded.

"Here is your breakfast. Enjoy," she smiled. I took the two trays from her cart. She must be delivering breakfast to all the roomers. "Good day," said quietly. I turned, leaving the door open for now, since my hands were full.

I felt it; the distortion of wind force behind me. I moved to side, a black sharp arm cut my side. I had just barely missed a fatal blow. I dropped to my knees, putting the food down. I was careless. A Level 2 replaced the woman at the door, its big mouth laughing hysterically.

"I didn't think exorcists were so dumb. This won't be fun!" he laughed, his extendable arms stretching over, trying to end my life again. I jumped around, missing the dangerous spears.

Kanda must have heard the commotion since he came out. Right when a spear was aimed fairly close to him. I pushed him away, my arm receiving a deep cut in return.

"Akuma!" The window smashed, shards of glass flying in.

KANDA POV

That idiot! Moron! Retard! "I heal faster than you, you idiot!"

"Reflex!" she shouted over the fight. The fact, she decided she was some hero. Wow. And look at her. Drips of blood splashed on the tiles as we ran from roof to roof.

I rolled my eyes. I wouldn't be surprised if she was suffering from some Martyr complex.

One good thing about this is I can fight without that ugly uniform because I took advantage of the confusion and sliced it. One down. And I washed the make up off in the bathroom while she was out. Two down.

Next, the akuma.

"Kanda, you didn't wash off the stuff did you?" she asked bluntly, as if reading thoughts. I turned away. She turned at me. "Lenalee's gonna kill me. Then you."

"In your dreams." I could hear its stupid laughter in the back, gaining on us. We separated our route as one of its black spear arms shot down between us.

We came to a slight dead end. Both of us turned around to face the akuma.

"Die exorcist!" it screamed, launching its long extendable arms at us. We moved away, dodging them, but out of the dust, they reverted direction, coming at us once again.

"Shit!" I blocked it with Mugen. Between the akuma and the dust, it's hard to make out what happened to that idiot. Oh well, she'll live.

Its arm attacked again. I dodged and jumped into the dust to find its origin. The small flicker of flame sent me backwards. I landed on a rooftop and watch the dust explode into flames.

"What were you trying to do, kill me?" I turned around to face blond hair and hazel eyes.

"Oh, you found me." I found you a while ago, stupid.

"If you're gonna make an explosion, make it when I'm away."

"But the Kanda I know is best at running away." I swipe at her. She moved back. "Kyuu~, you don't have to take the offense so quickly."

"Shut up," I glared coldly. She nodded off, looking back at the charred battle scene. There was a giant hole in one of the walls and everything within 6ft was blackened.

"Komui will pay for that," she said, full of carefree to her latest success in bombing an akuma. The last time she tried that, it demolished more than just a wall (a collision of 3 buildings). Using large dust particles as ignition was stupid since dust can spread to god knows how far.

In a snap of instinct both of them backed up together, back to back. Two akuma flew down I front of each of us. Both were Level 2.

"Hah, exorcists! This will be a good pass time!" The akuma flew at us. Both of us jumped into the air, avoiding them.

"Winners can control the other for one day," she shouted over the clashing. That's a stupidest prize I've ever heard but I wasn't gonna loose to that idiot.

"Like hell you can be as fast as me." And the battle begins. Each one of us taking on one akuma.

"I can."

"Can't."

"Can, too." One vein bursted on my head at her annoying phrases. I directed my anger at the akuma so I wouldn't loose concentration. Probably what she wants.

"Shut up, you damn idiot!!"

An explosion blew up behind me. Here we go again. I guess this can be revenge on Komui too, having her discharge blasts one after another. Half this city would be in ruins within an hour. Hah, beat that Komui.

Within 5 minutes, both akuma were dead. That's probably because Sele kept irritating Kanda and he slashed at the thing like someone out of an asylum but that's beside the point.

"I win," Kanda boasted proudly.

"By 7 seconds," Sele pouts silently.

"Win is still a win." Sele sighed, hoping she may have been able to use Kanda as her slave for a day. Oh shoot. And she thought of the idea too. Double shoot.

On contrary, Kanda was totally thinking what use someone like her would make of. She was unbelievably impossible, and wild, and stupid, and clueless. So what to do with her....

And Kanda's brain thinks of a brilliant idea. Indeed, but disaster is about to follow.

End Note~ Ok, so what is the idea our genius (not) 16 yr old Kanda thought up? Heaven know, I don't even know yet. That doesn't sound good and I'm the authoress. Ok, enough of me-bashing, see you next chap.
