Akuma Bait

The headquarters of the Black Order were uncharacteristically abandoned. All of the Exorcists were away on various missions and most of the Finders were out searching for signs of Innocence.

This only left the members of the Science Department.

And Inspector Malcolm C. Leverrier.

The Inspector had been keeping himself busy with paperwork but now he was all caught up with that. This left him with a lot of time on his hands and not a lot of things to occupy that time with.

So, after succumbing to the boredom, Leverrier decided to go for a walk. This wasn't something that he would due under normal circumstances. But the boredom was just too much at this point.

He had to find something to occupy his mind or else he was going to go insane.

With this thought in mind Leverrier left the office that he had claimed and made his way to the front entrance. No one was in sight which meant that no one would know that he was going for a walk.

Which suited the Inspector just fine.

After all he didn't want any of those imbeciles from the Science Division interfering with his walk. He still hadn't recovered from that incident with that huge robot built by Chief Komui.

That man was a menace to society and Leverrier fully intended to inform the Vatican that there were two threats to the Black Order. Allen Walker and the so called Chief of the Science Division.

Something needed to be done about both of them.

As Leverrier thought about the letter that he was going to write to the Vatican he wandered further and further from HQ. He wasn't really paying any attention to where he was going. He was just following a path.

With not even the vaguest of ideas as to where it led.

A sudden scream pierced the air and served to bring Leverrier's thoughts back to the here and now. Glancing toward the sound he felt his heart skip a beat.

There, standing in the path mere feet from him, was an Akuma.

And it was obvious that this wasn't just any Akuma. This was a Level Three Akuma. Leverrier took a step back, preparing to run for his life.

But he never got the chance.

The Akuma, which had an appearance similar to a large cat, leapt forward. Seizing the man by the leg the Akuma gave a mighty pull, which brought Leverrier to his knees.

"Help!" Leverrier cried out at the top of his voice. But, in the back of his mind, he knew. He knew that there wasn't anyone around who could help him.

Even if, by some miracle, someone from the Order heard his cries there wouldn't be anything that they could do. All of the Exorcists were away on assignment. There was no one at the Order who could combat the Akuma.

"Not an Exorcist," the Akuma growled, glaring down at Leverrier. "But you must die none the less, member of the Black Order."

Rolling onto his back Leverrier attempted to kick the Akuma.

A sadistic gleam appeared in the Akuma's eyes as the creature seized Leverrier by the leg. Clamping down the Akuma pierced the man's leg with his fangs. Blood spurted from the wound and Leverrier screamed out in agony.

Black pentacles began to spread out from the wound, causing Leverrier's panic to grow. He was infected with the virus. There wasn't even a shred of hope for him now.

"Don't worry," the Akuma snarled, delighting in the fear that he saw in the man's eyes. "You won't die by the virus."

And, without so much as another word, the Akuma sprang forward. It's fangs clamped around Leverrier's throat. A gurgling noise was all that issued from Leverrier in the seconds before the light fled from his eyes.

"Scum," the Akuma spat, turning to leave. "He was barely even worth the time it took to kill him."

A/N - death by Akuma! MWAHAHA!
