Shiki: Here it is, the real chapter Seven….sorry about the authors note. Oh and Rima is still sick….she's been having on/off fevers….enjoy!!
"Then what the hell are we waiting for!? Let's go rescue her NOW!!" Kanda yelled impatiently.
"Yu….Calm down now alright….We'll rescue her don't worry! You're hurt!" Lavi said.
"I'M FINE BAKA USAGI!!!!" Kanda screamed. Lisa walked over to Kanda and slapped him hard.
"Stupid!! Anna LOVES you!! How do you think she would feel if you just sacrificed your life for her!!?" Lisa yelled at the stunned samurai.
"Master how long do we have until the ceremony?!" Allen asked.
"Umm….maybe a day or so….maybe less…." Cross stated lazily.
"WHAT!!" Lavi, Kanda, Allen and Lisa yelled.
"Then we NEED TO GO NOW!!" Allen said.
"Fine fine stupid apprentice, but only if you all think you're ready for the Noah's Headquarters, it might be difficult…." Cross said uncaring.
"Where is the Headquarters!!!!?" Lisa asked.
"Up in the Ark…." Cross said.
"The Ark….Allen get us there now!" Kanda demanded. Allen nodded and started humming, an entrance to the Ark appeared and they all walked in it. Once inside the ark, the door shut behind them and vanished.
"Hey Allen….is that supposed to happen!?" Lavi said looking doomed.
"No it's not…." Allen stated.
"Well, let's keep looking…." Lisa said while starting ahead with Lavi. Everyone else followed along slowly, their eyes scanning for any sign of a Noah.
"Oi shounen….why did you come her?" A voice said from above. Allen looked up and saw Tyki on top of a roof. "It couldn't be to rescue Anna could it??" Tyki asked sarcastically.
"Tyki Mikk!" Allen hissed angrily. "Give Anna back!"
"Sorry, can't do that shounen, Road is about to start the ceremony!" Tyki smirked. "You can try and stop Road, if you get there soon enough anyway….all the way at the top again shounen!!" Tyki said before vanishing. The group of Exorcist's looked at each other before racing towards the center.
"Okay Road I told them…." Tyki said while appearing behind Road. The room was the same as last time, except Anna and Kali were lying on top of two different tables fast asleep.
"Good job Tyki…. Now let's start the ceremony, we don't have much longer until they get here!" Road said. Tyki nodded and suddenly all the Noah's but the Fourteenth appeared in the room, even the Earl was there.
"Let's get on with this…." The Earl said impatiently. "We need to awaken her before the Exorcist's get here!" Everyone nodded as Tyki and Road moved towards the girls.
"Ready Tyki?" Road asked.
"Whenever you are Road!" Tyki replied. Road nodded and started to concentrate. Tyki walked over to Kali and placed his hand in her chest, he also concentrated before pulling out the girls' soul, and it was white and pure silver. He walked over to Anna and placed the soul inside the bigger girls' chest, and a silver light shone brightly but softly.
"Oi something's going on up there!!!!" Kanda said while gesturing to the silver light shining out from the center building.
"Let's hurry!!" Lisa said before bursting out into a sprint.
"Road is it done?" David asked.
"Yeah it is, we just have to wait for Anna to wake up now….Kali wont, Tyki go put her in her room….Earl can we change our headquarters to Italy?" Road asked.
"Yes Road, I already have a castle picked out, Tyki-Pon has been there before!" The earl said.
"Oh you mean that place Earl….yeah I'll take Kali there now!" Tyki said while picking up Kali, he vanished after that.
"Road how does this work again?" Jasdero asked.
"Well, Kali's soul I guess was taken out of her and put into Anna, so Kali for some reason stays the same, but gets Anna's powers and takes over Anna's consciousness I guess….But Kali's body remains alive, but in a coma like state I guess." Road explained. "And the exorcist will be happily surprised!!" Road grinned sadistically. There was a bang suddenly, a bullet went through Road quickly, she fell to the ground. Anna sat up, her eyes turned gold as the seven stigmas appeared in her head and her skin darkened. She stood up and laughed crazily before jumping up into the rafters where she waited patiently for the rest of the Exorcist to arrive.
"Anna….or Kali which one?" The Earl asked.
"Kali please!!" Anna answered.
"Alright then, Kali take care of them and then come and join us later in Italy for tea!" The Earl said. Road stood up casually and smiled at Anna.
"Have fun Kali! I'll be back shortly" Road said as her and the rest of the Noah's vanished.
"We're almost there!!" Lisa said happily, no one noticed that General Cross had once again vanished. Allen and Kanda started running faster, they came up to the building and threw the door open. They saw General Cross standing there in the middle of the room smoking, completely oblivious.
"Cross….how?" Lisa asked. "Never mind I don't want to know….where are the Noah's?"
"They all left…." Cross said.
"Even Anna?" Kanda asked. There was a crazy sounding laugh from above them, they all looked up but couldn't see anything.
"It's Kali young Exorcist!!" Anna said while jumping down from the rafters, her head bowed as she landed easily on her feet without a sound.
"Anna!" Lisa started.
"I SAID IT WAS KALI YOU IDIOT!!" Anna screamed while her head lifted, they all saw the signs of a Noah and stepped back.
"Oi, why are you in my girlfriends body you fucked up Noah?!" Kanda demanded. They all looked at him in shock.
"Heheh…." Anna said. "You're girlfriend? Oh yeah y'all kissed!!" She said.
"Shut the fuck up!" Kanda said while drawing Mugen.
"DON'T TELL ME TO SHUT UP!!" Anna screamed. "Sorry….Anna here is filled with rage….which only makes this easier!! ROAD!!" Kali called out. Road Camelot appeared above Lisa and smirked.
"Kali-Chan, I came as I said I would, now let's have some fun!" Road said as several of her candles appeared, their ends already sharpened to a deadly point.
"Oi ponytail Exorcist, I'll fight you!" Kali said as pieces of the stone floor below her shattered and turned into a katana, it went to Kali's hands.
"Fine….but you'll just end up losing!" Kanda hissed. Lisa went to go and help Kanda but, Road stopped her.
"Hey little Exorcist, let me play with you!" Road smirked, the candles aimed towards Lisa but didn't move. No one noticed Allen sneak out of the room, nor Cross. Kali ran at Kanda with her katana aimed for his waist, he easily evaded her attack and the two got into a bloodthirsty battle.
"Lisa don't worry, Yu can take care of himself." Lavi said calmly, although he was worrying about his comrade. There was a clash and Kanda went flying backwards until he hit a wall.
"KANDA!!" Two voices screamed. Lisa started to run towards Kanda, but a candle pierced her right hand and embedded into the ground, Lisa screamed in agony.
"LISA!!" Two voices once again screamed. Lavi raced to Lisa and kneeled down next to her and looked worriedly at her. Kanda was standing up; he looked for Kali but didn't see her where he had left her.
"ROAD I'LL KILL YOU!!" A voice screamed in anguish. Everyone twisted around and saw Kali running at Road with her katana aimed for the Noah's head, but Kali's eyes weren't gold, they were their normal color and there was only one stigma on her pale head.
"KALI STOP IT!!" Road screamed in surprise as Anna jumped up and started to swing her katana down onto Road, her eyes filled with hatred towards the Noah. The katana was a centimeter from the Noah's flesh, when she vanished suddenly. There was the soft sound of something shattering and Anna collapsed to the ground clutching her wrist to herself and screaming in agony. Kanda raced over to Anna and pulled her into his arms and tried to alleviate the girls suffering.
"Anna what's wrong!?" Kanda asked.
"Heheh….Kali shattered her wrist from within her!!" Road said sadistically. "Now let's watch Kali gain control again!" Anna opened her eyes and they changed to gold, six stigmas appeared on her head to accompany the lone one, and her skin darkened.
"Oi Ponytail get away from me!" Kali said. Kanda stood up and walked towards Lavi and Lisa. Lavi had gotten the candle out of Lisa's hand and was trying to stop the bleeding by using strips of his shirt as bandages.
"About time Kali, what happened?" Road asked.
"She reacted to seeing her comrades being hurt, and used her anger to overcome me…. I won't let it happen again!" Kali said.
"Let's just leave, your exhausted….and I think the Earl has something for you…." Road said as one of her doors appeared. Kali nodded and followed Road into the door before vanishing.
"SHIT!! WHY DID YOU LET THEM GET AWAY?!" Kanda screamed in anguish. The door reappeared suddenly, and the sound of a piano started as the door spit out Kali and Road.
"What the hell Road?!" Kali demanded.
"That bastard…. Allen why are you playing the piano!!?" Road screamed.
Allen heard Road's scream, and smirked as he continued to play the piano, he had decided to not let anyone leave or enter the Ark as long as he played.
"That Moyashi actually did something good for once!!" Kanda said shocked. Kali looked up and started spacing out.
"Pretty….such pretty music…." Kali whispered.
"Kali are you insane?! That piano is keeping us from leaving!!" Road said.
"Not the piano….the voice….cant you hear it?!" Kali said calmly.
"Oi Allen get rid of Road!!" Lavi ordered.
Allen grimaced, he knew no one could see him, but he still glared. "Fine Lavi…." He muttered.
Road suddenly vanished with a scream as the song continued on. The Exorcist were all smirking in victory, with Kali in a daze and no other Noah's to bother them, it would be easy to take her down and force her to give back Anna. Kanda walked calmly and silently over to Kali, Mugen was drawn and ready to be used if necessary. Kali heard him somehow and looked at him calmly.
"Oi Ponytail….why do you want this girl so much anyway? She's vicious, deadly, too selfless for her own health, and has the most shattered heart and mind I have ever seen!" Kali asked calmly while sitting down on the ground and listening to the piano and vocals.
"Because I love her filthy Noah!" Kanda said.
"Oh….well you can't get rid of me…. I'm stuck in her head like the Fourteenth is with Allen!!" Kali smirked. The piano stopped suddenly and abruptly, and Allen appeared through a door. His left arm had turned into the sword and his eyes filled with hatred.
"I'll make you give her back!!!!" Allen said pissed off. Kali jumped up to her feet and pushed Kanda back towards Lavi and Lisa before the discarded katana flew back to her hands. Allen and Kali started a heated battle, the watching Exorcist not knowing who would win at this point.
"Hey Lis are you okay?" Lavi asked calmly.
"Yeah I'm fine…. Is it true? Will Kali be in Anna's head from now on?!" Lisa asked.
"I'm sure Allen is thinking of some way to fix this…." Lavi said calmly even though he was in doubt whether Allen could. There was a crash and when the dust cleared, everyone saw Kali against a wall with no weapon and Allen running at her with his word aimed at her.
"BAKA MOYASHI STOP THAT'LL KILL HER!!" Kanda screamed not knowing that the weapon didn't cause external injuries on humans. Kanda started racing to Allen to try and make it in time to stop, but was to far away. Allen's sword embedded itself into Kali's stomach and went completely through her body and a few inches into the wall.
"Heheh! That didn't work silly Exorc-" Kali started, her pupils narrowed and she started clutching at the swords hilt, she screamed a bloodcurdling scream, Anna's scream soon joined as Kali was trying to give the pain to Anna to lessen her pain.
"I'm sorry Anna…." Allen whispered. Kanda grabbed Allen by the front of his shirt and lifted him up.
"WHAT THE HELL BAKA MOYASHI!!!! TAKE IT OUT NOW!! IT'LL KILL HER!! DO IT NOW!!" Kanda screamed desperately. Kali spat out blood and started gripping the hilt tight enough to cause her hands to bleed as he nails went into her palms, her and Anna's scream continuing on. Allen looked at Kanda sadly before grabbing his sword and taking it out of Kali before turning it back into his arm, Kali fell to her knees exhausted.
"Allen Walker….the legendary host of the Fourteenth…."Kali said as the stigmas vanished and her skin paled, and only a small ring of gold was left in her eyes.
"Anna….?" Kanda said kneeling down next to the girl. The girl blinked before she passed out exhausted. "WE'RE GOING BACK HOME NOW!!!!" Kanda ordered. Allen nodded and looked at Lavi.
"Lavi can you carry Lisa, and I'll find the door to Headquarters!" Allen said. Lavi nodded and picked up Lisa bridal style before following the boy and Kanda who had also picked up Anna. Allen soon stopped at a door and opened it, him and the rest of the Exorcist followed him, and they appeared in the science department.
"Allen, Kanda, Lavi?!" Reever asked shocked.
"Reever where's Komui?!" Allen asked. Kanda and Lavi were already racing to the infirmary to get their 'girls' (Heheh!!!!) taken care of.
"In his office asleep as usual, why?" Reever asked, he didn't get an answer as Allen went to go tell Komui about what had happened. "No one tells me anything…."
"Kanda-San please relax!! Anna will be fine; she is only suffering from exhaustion!! Lavi-San, Lisa will be fine! Her wound has been stitched up and bandaged, so both of you relax!!" The Head Nurse ordered the two pacing Exorcists. Kanda gave her his trademark glare and continued to pace as Lavi sat down on the floor against the wall exhausted, a sigh escaping his lips.
"I'm worried about both of them, Anna now as a new Noah in her, and we don't know anything about this Noah…. Lisa lost a lot of blood and will have a scar….both were mentally scarred and traumatized." Lavi muttered.
"Shut up baka Usagi…. They'll be fine…." Kanda said trying to convince himself more than anyone else. A Nurse walked out of the room and into the hallway that occupied the two Exorcist.
"The girls are awake now, we placed them in separate rooms when they started fighting though." She said timidly before walking back into the infirmary. Kanda and Lavi exchanged looks before going to find their girls.
Kanda walked into Anna's room silently and saw the girl sitting up looking bored out of her mind, her eyes brightened when Kanda walked in.
"Kanda!!!!" She leapt out of the bed and wrapped her arms around Kanda's waist, hugging him tightly.
"Anna be careful…." Kanda said with a small smile, he hugged her back and kissed the top of her head. Anna blushed deeply as Kanda picked her up and sat her back on the bed, he sat down next to her.
"Kanda I'm fine, I'm sick of this place!!" Anna whined.
"Well…. You aren't allowed to leave the infirmary until you are better…." Kanda said calmly as Anna grimaced. "Now what did you and Lisa fight about?" Kanda watched as Anna's eyes went from happy to guarded, her face showed an emotion Kanda couldn't place, but that emotion was quickly covered by one of complete emotionless.
"We didn't fight about anything, where did you hear that bull shit from…." Anna said blankly.
"Anna don't lie, not to me anyway….a nurse came out and told us that they had to separate you two because you were fighting…." Kanda tried to get the girl to fess up.
"WE DIDN'T FIGHT OKAY!!? GEEZ JUST LEAVE ME ALONE!!" Anna screamed at Kanda before running out of the room and to god knows where.
"Tch…." Kanda left the room and went and found Lavi in Lisa's. "Oi Baka Usagi….why did they fight?" Kanda asked.
"Lisa why did you and Anna fight?" Lavi asked softly and with a smile.
"Anna didn't tell you?" Lisa asked Kanda.
"Hell no, she yelled at me and then ran off." Kanda said pissed off.
"I thought she would tell you….oh well…." Lisa started. "We fought because she was being all guilty, saying it was her fault I got hurt, so I yelled at her and told her to stop blaming herself and a Nurse came in and automatically thought we were fighting and separated us….Anna feels extremely guilty for what happened in the Ark….she blames herself for fighting you, letting me get hurt….and everything else"
"So that's why…." Lavi stated. Kanda left the room then to go look for Anna.
"Will Anna be okay? I think she's trying to carry everyone's pain and sufferings, along with her own….she could go insane with all that guilt and suffering!!" Lisa said panicking slightly.
"Don't worry Lisa, Kanda will find her and make everything all right!" Lavi said before hugging the girl.
