Chapter 6
Back in the office.
Kanda gently laid Allen on the couch. His eyes twitched, and eyes flatter opened. Allen stared at Kanda who flinched at his sudden awakening. Though soon immediately, fear was implanted in his eyes. "NO!" Allen pushed Kanda away, and his eyes desperately searched round the room full of books and papers. His head stopped its search when he landed his eyes on a flattering long red locks, and a unique mask. "D-don't lea...ve" With his sobbing words, he fell off the couch and straddled towards the man.
"Allen!" Worried Krory closed his distance to the boy on the floor, but he was immediately rejected
"I'M SORRY!" Allen screamed, as he held his head defensively. Krory stepped back, and watched Allen repeatedly apologized. "i'm sorry im sorry im sorry im sorry im sorry..." His movement, his way of speaking was so different from the exorcist Allen Walker they know. Lavi, Lenalee, Krory, Chaozii, Kanda, Marie, Miranda, and Komui stood watched was literally no conversation exchanged, it was a psychological warfare of getting the trust. No matter who came a step near him, he curls up on the floor, chanting like a maniac.
Cross caressed the boy. "Allen, its okay." His unlike soft deep voice, caught Allen's attention. Everyone watched the two
"B-but...I hurt people, even my parents gave me up. I killed Mana, I killed everyone. It was my fault Allen died too...If...If I didn't exist...B-because I exist..." The words that everyone in the room had to question. His words held so much weight, too much for 15 year old to say. They couldn't understand what is making him suffer. Why he act like that.
Chaozii stared at the broken boy.
"Allen come here." Allen immediately grabbed the reaching hands. "I'm here so sleep" With few words, like magic, Allen drifted away once again.
Cross leaned having Allen on his lap. He was locked by the young one's hand grabbing tightly on his clothes.
"Why is Allen-kun like this? Why is he suffering so much? What is happening to him?" Lenalee's eyes teared up. Komui pulled her shoulders for comfort. Miranda and Krory also had a pained look on his face. They never seen Allen so broken and weak. Allen always gave strength. Strength to overcome the pain and thorny path they had to walk. He was always there when they needed him. Cross lit a smoke. Wafting throughout the room.
"Cross, you shouldn't be smoking in front of a kid." Sokaro said as he shrugged indifferently.
"You should try parenting a kid, you can't live without a puff or two." Cross sighed looking at the sleeping boy.
"Allen killed Mana, his father on the day he made him into an akuma." Cross begin. The eyes of everyone in the room tensed up.
"Mana is his father?" Chaozii mumbled.
"Technically, they were working at the same circus. Allen was mentally abused in the circus, but he tried to survive."
"Thats terrible!" Miranda cried.
"Obviously, what could he have done in this day and age? He was born with innocence, he was treated like a monster the moment he was born. Thrown away by parents you don't know who, and being treated like a monster where ever you set the foot in."
"Is that why Allen craves love and validation?" Kanda who stood the closest asked. No one missed the moment 'Allen' was left from Kanda's lips. Without any further pursuit, Marie continued.
"Kanda, what does that mean?"
"Hmph, no one noticed?"
"Notice what Yuu?"
"That guy makes a wall when he talks to us. When he's far, he comes slightly closer but when he'a close, he steps back. When he talk, he wears a mask to hide his expression."
"Why did it happen? Allen-kun isn't the type to give in to Road's power. He was so strong even when we were in the rewinding town." Lenalee questioned.
"These kinds of regression won't happen unless he was emotionally broken down by a third party. It wouldn't usually regress in a weird manner. There must be a trigger that was pulled to make him in that state." Everyone's expression showed confusion.
"Trigger?" Komui asked.
"Probably his mind and heart gave up on what he had pent up. Maybe SOMEONE said some stuff that was nonsense." Cross's voice was cold as ice. His eyes watched Chaozii's presence in particular.
"But Allen-kun never gives up, many people here was saved by Allen-kun's kindness and know that Allen-kun is-" Lenalee's sentence was interrupted by the sitting general, he laughed off sarcastically. "Is strong? That's funny."
"Funny? Why are you- You don't care about Allen Walker!?" Chaozii's head became red as tomato and irritably yelled back at the man.
"Care about Allen? Who is talking now? Then I ask what do you know about Allen?" Cross stared at the people in the room. He felt a dark disgusting feeling coming up from his guts. The exorcist shut down with a realization that they didn't know anything about their fellow comrades.
What did they know about the boy name Allen Walker?

Allen's PoV
I felt a touch, a soft touch. My eyes were blinded by the light as I opened my eyes. The nostalgic figure stood in front of me. The clown outfit sparkled in my eyes, and the smile never faltered. Behind the clown, a slender tail wailed in the corner of my eyes. It was an existence that I never thought I would see again. I couldn't help but to cry out for the two presence I longed for.
"MANA! ALLEN!" There was no response, but i couldn't be any more than happy to see the two again. "I wanted to see you, I...I wanted to say i'm s-"
REMEMBER ALLEN, THAT YOU DESTROYED ME. DON'T FORGET YOUR SIN. ITS BECAUSE YOU ARE DEMON WHO BRINGS DEATH.
The breaking, shattering sound stopped 10 seconds of my heartbeat. "W..hy..." Once again the two existence disappeared fron my sight. Crumbling down deeper into the depth of hell.
"Because you keep stepping past the line" Brunette boy pointed forward the ground with a red line. He traced the line as he looked at me annoyingly. "Yall all go to hell. Nobody wants you...us alive. Nobody WANTED us in the first place." Young and nostalgic way of talking brought my original character out.
"SHUT UP! You little shit, I didn't ask for it! I didn't ask to be born. I...I stayed in the line. I kept myself outta that line!" I felt a hint of blood in my mouth, clenching my jaw was a slight pain but I didn't want to cry. I didn't want to shed a single tear.
"Look at yourself. How ugly." Leaving painful words, he disappeared into the mist without my response.
Although an eerie voice echoed in my head.
"He probably doesn't care if any of us dies. He even killed his own father!"
Crack
"Is he safe to be here? I don't want this place to be ruined like the last one."
Crack
"Everywhere he goes, death and chaos appears...like a death reaper."
Crack
"Why is he even alive?"
Crack
Bit by bit, I can hear something crumbling under my breath. Like its slowly taking away part of me one by one. Maybe it is better to disappear like that. Maybe my master will be relieved that he doesn't have to take care of someone like me...even Kanda...Kanda will be less grumpy that I won't annoy him anymore.
XxxxxX
"Any other questions?...because i want to get this brat back to his bed." Cross grumbled while trying to repositioning himself without waking the boy.
"Even though you know things more than we do, you know something right? Something that you haven't told us. More important, the reason, the trigger that made moyashi like that." Kanda snared at the man.
"...Why do you think so?" The air tensed with the two relentless personality crashing in silence.
"Its obvious...TIM!" many in the room flinched at the sudden tone of Kanda's voice.
The yellow golem flattered in front of Kanda. Tim slowly decended on top of the couch still staring at the samurai. "Tim, show me whatever you saw with moyashi!"
"Wait was Timcampy with Allen the whole time?" Lavi exclaimed and felt stupid at the fact that they can know what happened to Allen this whole time.
The object opened its mouth, showing the same imagery that Cross saw in Allen's room. Before Tim pixelized its imagery, the master carried his pupil out the room. "Just so you know apology and regret isn't a solution. He doesn't need that."
The the scene brought back to the moment Allen was called by the higher ups of central, to input a microchip in his body. Where the scene unravelled Allen Walker's behind scenes.
