This chapter is kinda sad.
I do not own DGM n_n
The Millennium Earl sighed, looked at Allen, small, fragile, and taking uneven breaths. The boy was lying in bed, a wet rag on his forehead, cheeks flushed and covered in sweat. He had been living with the Noah's for about a year now and had just started a new untested cure for his disease. The boy had to undergo a series of shots, the medicine inside weakening his immune system for a few days. With Allen's luck, he had picked up a horrible cold with a very high fever.
"We need more ice!" Tyki yelled to David who was sitting by Allen's bed. The boy nodded and quickly dragged his brother with him to get ice. Road ran in as soon as the door was open, her father chasing after her. She was crying, worried for the small boy.
"Allen, please wake up! You'll be okay soon I promise!" the small girl said, Sheryl picking her up before she could reach the boys bedside. He quickly carried her out.
"It's never been this bad. He shouldn't have gotten those injections." Tyki said, whipping sweat form his forehead.
"Well, what if he is cured after this?" Lulu Bell asked.
"What if he dies from this?" Tyki shot back.
"Shut up!" Cross yelled, just as panicked as the both of them but keeping his composure. Tyki took the rag off of Allen's head and set in a bucket of warm water that had been cold only a while ago. David and Jasdero burst into the room then, each holding a bucket of ice. Allen coughed hard, sending him into gasp for air. "This isn't going to work, get him in the bath tub." Cross commanded. "You two," he said, pointing to Jasdevi. Go fill the bath with cold water and add the ice to it, then go get more." Cross threw the blankets off of Allen as the twins rushed into the bathroom. The man picked Allen up, the boys body limp and carried him into the bathroom. That bath was a fourth of the way full but Cross slid Allen in, clothes and all.
Tyki caught on to Cross' idea. "Put the ice in, hurry up!" Tyki yelled as Cross rolled up his sleeves. The two did as they were told and dumped the ice into the tub. Allen cringed on contact, gasping form the sudden coldness and opening his eyes. "Go get more!" Tyki commanded. Cross kneeled by Allen side, grabbing handfuls of Ice and moving them along Allen's hot body. The boy seemed to drift in and out of consciousness, opening his eyes every know-and-then and sliding them shut after a few seconds. About an hour and four buckets of ice later, Allen finally shot up, grabbing at the side of the tub and shivering from the cold.
"M- Ma- Ma- Massssstttt-" The boy couldn't even form a sentence. Cross lifted Allen out of the ice water and grabbed his jacket, draping it around Allen's shoulders and using it as a towel, rubbing Allen's body with it. Allen's lips were blue, his body paler than usual and trembling.
"He might get hypothermia, get Road in here. He needs to be gradually warmed up so we need someone with a lower temperature. Road should be just fine." Cross said drying Allen's hair. Lulu Bell went and got Road, coming back in less than three minutes with the sleepy girl. She had just woken up.
"Road, we need you to hug Allen." Tyki said, guiding the girl over to the frozen boy. Road looked panicky. Normally she would be happy to hug him but now Allen looked sick and frail. She was afraid.
"Hurry up girl!" Cross yelled, making Road jump. She hustled over to Allen and hugged him, jumping again when her warm skin came in contact with Allen cold skin. Cross wrapped his jacket around the two, making sure no heat would be lost. Allen seemed to be in the pain, the slight warmth from Road's skin burning him to the core. He suddenly felt really tired, wishing he could sit or lay down.
"Allen, are you okay?" the girl asked, tears forming in her eyes. Allen didn't answer. "Allen…" Tears rolled down Road's cheeks and fell onto Allen's bare skin, causing the boy to cringe. "Please be okay." She said.
"R- Road. Pl- Pleassssstop crying. I- I'm okay." Allen stuttered.
"Know what?" Road asked, trying not to sob. "Were all going to protect you, no matter what. All of us, Me, daddy, Tyki, even meany old Cross. Were all gonna help ya' get better. No matter what! Your gonna get better!" Road declared. She almost screamed when she felt Allen's body go limp, having to kneel on the floor because of the extra weight.
"It's ok Road. Tyki said, picking the girl up as Cross grabbed Allen. "He is just tired. You can talk to him once he gets a good night sleep." Road wiped her tears away but let Tyki take her back to her room. She didn't sleep at all that night.
A week later Allen was back up like nothing had ever happened. He played with Road in the courtyard awhile before going in to find Tyki. The boy got the library when he heard a carriage pull into the court yard. The boy ran to the window and looked out to see a man with Dark, unruly hair walk out.
"Tyki!" Allen yelled, heading back toward the front door. As soon as Tyki's body was in view, Allen threw himself into the mans arms. "Tyki, where did you go? I couldn't find you any-"
"Allen!" Tyki yelled from behind the boy. Allen stopped, confused and looked over his shoulder to see Tyki's panicked expression. "Tyki, if your over there then who is-" Allen looked up to meet cruel golden eyes. The man had Tyki's hair, height and body build but he resembled Allen, or, Allen resembled him.
"So your Allen." The man said with a creepy smile. "The kid my brother looked for and tried so very hard to keep away from me." Allen backed up. He didn't like this man. Something about him screamed danger. Allen ran to hug the real Tyki, hiding his face in Tyki's pant leg. "How rude, running away from your own Father." The other man sneered. Allen clenched his fist and froze, eyes wide.
"Neah, what are you doing at the main house?" Tyki asked, biting back the poison in his wards.
"Is there any harm in a father wanting to see his son after so many years?" Neah asked, smiling. Allen couldn't control his body as it began shacking. The boy felt sick to his stomach and before he realized it, he was crying.
"Yes. There is." Cross said, making his way down the stairs.
Dramatic!
Okay so how many of you think Neah is gonna to something horrible?
