I do not own D. Gray- Man

Chapter 48:

I jumped off the bed and dried my hands on the towel hanging over the back of my chair. What kind of urgent mission needed all of the exorcists? Oh, well, at least I explained myself to Kanda. Things could go back to the way they used to be now.

I turned and opened the door for a storming Kanda- best thing to do when Kanda's mad- I turned and opened the door for a storming Kanda- best thing to do when Kanda's mad- Stay out of his way.

That is if you wanted to keep your head.

I liked my head, I liked my life. Most people do. Amazing, isn't it?

I kept in pace beside Kanda as he stormed down the halls muttering something in Japanese. Yeah, I knew some words, but I'd never learned the language. I doubt Kanda would teach anyone. I heard him mutter baka and kso a few times, and by the tone of his voice you could tell that he was cursing, or ranting at someone. Well, Komui, obviously, who else would he be mad at? Luckily for Komui, there's be enough other exorcists around him who were crazy enough to try and stop Kanda from killing him. Allen and Lavi, for example, and if Lenalee wanted to, she'd step in and Kanda would stop. I was glad there were Allen and Lavi, it used to be only me who would have to stop Kanda from killing people, and he wouldn't stop his attack when I stepped forward. That's the difference between Lenalee and me. He'd stop if Lenalee stepped forward.

To be honest, I never knew Kanda liked relaxing this much. I mean, he only reacted like this when you took away something he really liked or wanted.

Like soba, for example.

Never (And I mean never) take Kanda's soba.

That is one thing you do not do.

That is if you want to live. If you feel like dying- be my guest.

So, we got to Komui's office along with Marie and Miranda.

"Why's Kanda mad?" Marie asked me, letting Kanda storm past him into the room. It was amazing how everyone got out of his way when he was mad.

"He was relaxing." Komui had better wipe that smile off his face if he wanted to keep his face. "Did you know he liked relaxing this much?"

"Well, he likes meditating."

"Is meditating relaxing?"

"I don't know, maybe, I've never done it. It's one of those oriental things." Marie shrugged and we joined the line of exorcists. Allen and Lavi were holding Kanda back from jumping and beating Komui to death with his bare hands. I walked over and stood next to Link, Allen's 'watch dog'.

"All right!" Komui spoke way too cheerfully for his own good. "Now that you are all here, I have news! We are moving headquarters! And since the rest of the divisions are fine, you will all be helping the science division pack all of their things! I'll be splitting you off into teams." Komui was zipping through the details, probably because he didn't want to answer all the questions that were flying through everyone's heads. "The Generals do what the Generals do, I have no superiority over them. But the rest of you will divide like this: Hannah, you're with Marie. I'll need you two to pick up the really heavy stuff and load them into the carriages when they come. Kanda and Lavi, you're together doing the same thing only with less heavy stuff. Allen, you and Link will do the same as Lavi and Kanda. Miranda, you are with my precious Lenalee! And bookman you're with them too, you'll be getting the odd jobs done and the light loads. That's all! You can get to work now!"

"Why are we moving headquarters?!"

"Are you crazy to put me with the baka usagi?!"

"Why do I have to have the heavy lifting job?!"

"I'm going to kill you Komui!"

"What about me?! You forgot me! What do I do? Also heavy lifting?!"

The room exploded into questions, but as Chaoji yelled his questions Komui turned around with a very serious look on his face making everyone shut up.

"We are moving headquarters, Allen, for security measures. Yes Kanda, you have to work with Lavi. Yes Lavi, you have to dot he heavy lifting job, you're a big, strong man." He looked a little scared as he said "Kanda, please don't kill me!" He ducked as Kanda threw a glare in his direction. I guess he really thought looks could kill you if they hit you. Lenalee would need to explain to him that it's just and idiom. "And Chaoji, I forgot about you. You do heavy lifting too, but you put it all on the carriages okay? You were a sailor so you can make the boxes fit right?" Chaoji nodded. "Good! That's all then!"

I sighed, time to pack my room and the rest of the headquarters.

I knew Komui was nothing but trouble…
