Lizzie's POV~
Tyki and I walked around town for a while; I really wanted to just tell him that I knew his secret. It was pretty obvious, I feel so stupid for not realising at first.
"Something on your mind, baby?" He questioned as he nuzzled his face into my cheek. "Just thinking about stuff." I answered nonchantly.
"What are you thinking about?"
"That man that attacked me in Barcelona…or should I say, Noah." I began to hope he'd get the hint but he just looked clueless. "A Noah?"
"Nevermind…shall we get some food?"
"Of course." He kissed my cheek and took my hand and led me off to a restaurant.
~Eliza's POV~
"Eliza, let me take you out to dinner." Cross said and flashed his famous smirk. "I don't know, not after everything…"
"Oh come on, we need to catch up on Lizzie."
"Alright fine, where do you want to go?"
"Follow me." So I did. We arrived at a fancy restaurant, I couldn't even pronounce the name of because, and well it is French. Cross took me inside and spoke to a waitress in French, most likely flirting for a table. I sighed and waited, moments later the waitress escorted us to a table and took our order. I noticed Cross was checking out her ass as she walked away, scowling I grabbed his cheek and forced him to look at me. "Now tell me about Lizzie's strengths."
"oh, well Lizzie is a little slow with combat. She trusts strangers easily, hence her relationship with the Noah of Pleasure."
I nodded, "anything else?"
"No that's pretty much it, anything else, babe?"
"Please go and die." I muttered and looked away.
~Lizzie's POV~
Tyki and I sat in Mcdonalds, I spent ten minutes trying to understand the menu. Then Tyki had to try and order it in French, he ended up speaking in his native tongue; Portuguese. It was hilarious.
Tyki sat there sipping him his go-cup, acting casual. I just had to say something. "Tyki, are you hiding something from me?" Tyki froze for a moment and chuckled. "What makes you think that, baby?"
"You're just acting a little weird today that's all." I responded.
"I reassure you, I'm fine, Lizzie. Now eat up."
"Excuse me, Elizabeth…" Tyki stood up. "I'll be back in a moment, I just need some fresh air." Once Tyki left, I had this feeling that he wouldn't be returning. How typical of that 'hobo' to leave me with the bill. So I quickly snuck out of there with ease. Once I headed outside I bumped into a little girl around thirteen years old The streets were pretty empty this late at night. "I'm so sorry…"
"Wow! You look so much like your daddy, can we play? Please! I want to play with your pretty hair while I destroy your mind."
"What?"
Her skin then darkened, Noah…perfect timing to disappear, Tyki!
The little girl then raised a hand and as dark matter formed in the palm of her hand, I rolled away dodging her attack and I got my beloved Bloody Rose out and fired at her. The girl deflected my attacks. "Who are you? WHAT are you?!" I demanded.
"My name is Road Kamelot and I am a proud member of the human race."
"But, Akuma…"
"Nope. I'm nothing like those useless things. I am the Noah of Dreams." She winked and pointed a screeching umbrella at me. Yes, the umbrella screeched!
Road laughed, "You see Elizabeth, if my uncle Tyki and I apprehend you, we get the General. We really want to speed things along and destroy the heart already."
"There's no way I'm going to let you kill my father. Besides he's not as stupid as you make him out to be. My father is a great general. Well was… he's not quite general anymore…"
"But still he is quite powerful, once we're done with him; we'll go after mommy dearest."
~Road's POV~
This girl was so boring and stupid. I wanted to get home to daddy so we could go to lego land already. But no, Millenie had to send us after this brat; she was just as stubborn as General Cross. "Uncle Tyki, please help me."
Tyki stepped out of the shadows and the girls eyes widened in recognition. I guess she just realised that Tyki was toying with her like he did with all the ladies.
"Tyki, I figured that you were one of them too."
Tyki tssked and rolled his eyes. "Now Elizabeth, this is no time to point fingers at me accusingly, you gave yourself to me. You opened up to me a strange miner. Didn't your parents ever teach you not to talk to strangers?"
While she was busy having an argument with Tyki, I decided to speed things along and fire a lit candle...right through her left eye and another few in the chest.
~Tyki's POV~
I never meant the things I said to her… Elizabeth please forgive me.
Before I could step in to just grab her and take her home my idiot of a 'niece' just HAD to stab her with some candles, I gasped and grabbed Road's arm. "That's ENOUGH! You are not to lay another finger on her!"
"Fine, Tyki." Road approached her and grabbed the gun and destroyed it with her touch, the green fragment of innocent hit the bloody concrete in front of the screaming red head.
In the corner of my eye I saw another familiar red head with a blonde and a screeching monkey. "It's time to retreat, Road…"
I'm sorry, my dearest Elizabeth.
~Eliza's POV~
"Eliza, how have things been at the order?" Cross asked as he cut up his food. "Fine, I guess." I responded, Cross nodded but as he was about to say something else someone ran in yelling at their friend about a couple of young dark skinned individuals. The Noah were in town. I ran outside and the echoed screams of my beloved daughter could be heard in the distance. Cross and I ran together to her aid and there she laid in a pool of her own blood with a green fragment of innocence.
"Dear god.."
A/N: Hey there! Okay sorry for the long wait, I've honestly been struggling with severe writers block and I stayed up most of the night writing this, it's pretty short I think and I'm honestly not proud of this chapter as I feel like I've rushed it. I am hoping to come up with new ideas and be able to push the next chapter up to 2,000 words. Of course the beginning of the next chapter is going to be about Lizzie's little hospital drama. I'll also be writing more about Cross and Eliza's Past and I'll have a chapter just in Tyki's POV. Those are the only ideas I have so far and of course Cross and Eliza will be working out their relationship to get back together at some point. :3. Please leave me some feedback guys! Also I'm thinking of scrapping the other DGM story I have up as it's just…idk. Anyway. I hope you're all enjoying the sudden weather change (: Peace out – Kezzie. (:
