Chapter 5: All in Blue
"Wha-" Suddenly shadows came out of nowhere, engulfing the room whole in complete darkness. My surroundings got silent and there was nothing but darkness around me.
"Lavi?" I called, but he was nowhere in sight
"Che- she's not here," a voice spatted
I looked up to a tall dark hair male with purple eyes. His eyes were stern and blood stained his shirt.
"Wha-" he turned to me and leaned over me,
"Who the hell are you, Bean-sprout?"
I felt the corner of my mouth twitch,
"B-bean-sprout?" he stared at me,
"Oi, bean-sprout... Have you seen the necromancer?" he hissed,
"Eh?"
He grabbed me by the collar of the shirt and lifted me from the ground to his height,
"I'm talking about the brat with long black hair and strange armor!" He yelled. My eyes widen.
"You know Sharon?" his eyes began to glow.
"How do you know that name?" Before I could reply, I was thrown to the side and an Akuma bullet shot through his chest. My eyes widen as he dropped to his knees coughing blood.
"Damn," I got up activating my innocence.
"Stay down, bean-sprout." The man slowly got back on his feet wiping his mouth. His body glowed and his wounds healed quickly, "Immortals can't die," he looked back at the Akuma and his eyes glowed red. "Let's make a deal, I'll save her just this once, if you keep her safe and out of these pain in the ass nuisances,"
"Eh?"
He looked back at me with a glare,
"Ah- yes." He smirked and looked forward,
"Good," then he headed straight towards the Akuma,
The halls stood silent, my eyes focused on the wooden floor.
"What was he?" I questioned, "Was he a necromancer like Sharon?"
Memories of last night flashed through my mind,
"Don't get a head of yourself,""I still hate you and I won't ever forgive for what you've done."
"Don't ever forget that."
Letting out a deep sigh, I looked up at the ceiling,
"Why were you sad, Sharon?"
Suddenly, Lavi rushed down the stairs.
"Allen! She's gone!" he yelled. My eyes widen,
"Eh?"
"She's not in her room!"
Without a waste, I turned and ran out the room.
Sharon's POV
It was peaceful… unusually peaceful… the sky was cloudless and life around me stood lively and well. Staring at the ground, my eyes wondered endlessly confused and lost. Why did He save me? He could have killed me back there, but why? I grabbed my head and looked down.
"Sharon S. Schatten?" A voice called,
I looked up at a man in a long blue coat with gold lining and a matching hat that usually covered his sapphire eyes. But, he removed his hat and brushed his dark brown bangs to the side,
[Hal B. Diederich, it's been a while]
"This is where you have been? I was worried you have lost-" I got up and embraced him. He looked at me with surprise, "You've met him?" I looked away and nodded. He let out a sigh and sat down on to the bench, "Did he say something to you?" I sat back down next to him,
[The same words as before,]
He sighed again and dropped his head. "I see," he looked up at my arm, "You've been caught in quite a lot of trouble again, haven't you?" I didn't reply. "Please don't pull anything rash, Camilla will be enraged again." I pulled my legs to my chest and rested my chin on my knees.
"Sharon!" I heard.
I looked back and saw Allen running around in the crowd of people. He looked around and turned to me. Quickly turning away, I pulled my hood up.
"A friend?" I got up and pulled his arm, "Sharon?" I tugged on his arm and pulled him up on to his feet. "Hey-" Without a waste, I started running, "H-hey! What's wrong? Sharon?"
I rushed to a quieter and abandoned place of the town. Taking a look around the place once more, I let out a small sigh. But suddenly, a firm grasp took my wrist. I looked back at Allen, who was gasping for breath.
"I… f-finally… f-found you…" he dropped his head and took a deep breath, "You can't run out like that, Sharon." He looked up at me with a smile, "You're still injured, you need to rest," my eyes widen. '
Why is he standing in front of me again?
Why is he smiling at me?
I tried to pull away but was suddenly pulled me over Hal's shoulders. Looking over my shoulder, I looked up at Allen and Hal,
"Which way to the hospital?"
"Eh- this way…" Allen pointed. I grabbed Hal's back and pinched him, He looked back at me with a stern look.
"Just shut up and stay still," he muttered, "He's already involved," my eyes widen and my grip weakened. Dropping my head downwards, I didn't fight back anymore.
Allen's POV
Sharon just became silent. Well, she normally is silent, but- well- she just became still and distant even more than usual. She was carried back to the hospital by the man and was put in her bed. The man turned to me and took his hat off,
"I apologize about her behavior," he turned to me, "I'm Hal B. Diederich." He introduced himself,
"I'm Allen Walker," I told him, "Um… how do you know Sharon?" I asked a bit uneasily.
"We traveled together for a short time," He sat down on the chair and sighed, "Putting that aside, what about you?" he asked,
"Eh?"
"Why do you get yourself involved with Sharon?"
"What do you mean? I'm just helping-"
He sighed and put down his staff next to him,
"I'm going to say this because Sharon is thinking the same thing," he began, "Don't get too involved with her. Or it's just best to stay away from her," Our surroundings got silent as my eyes widen at his words. Why would he say that? Is Sharon that dangerous?
"Oi, Oi, Hal. Isn't that a bit harsh?" a voice asked.
We looked to the side and a girl in a red. Head to toe she wore a bright red. Except for her hair, it was white like snow. Looking up under her red hood revealing her silver blue eyes, and gave Hal a grin.
"Cami, what are you doing here?"
"If you noticed earlier, he's already involved." She informed ignoring his question,
"I know, Cami." Hal leaned against the wall, "That's why I'm preventing anymore damage."
Damage? What is he talking about?
The girl let a laugh and sat next to him,
"You're so hard headed," She laughed at Hal and walked close to him. She turned towards me, "Hey, Midget,"
"Midget?" why was she calling me midget? She's shorter than me… "Ah-yes?"
"You came in contact with him, didn't you?"
"Camilla," Hal got up,
"Him?" my eyes widen, "That man?"
Finally, maybe I can get some answers about him.
"Yup, The Shadow Knight." She sighed, "What did he say?" I looked down remembering his words,
"He asked me to protect Sharon,"
Camilla's eyes widen and she looked over to Hal. Hal gave her a strong nod and she turned to him with a gasp,
"Why would he protect her? And, leave her to this midget?"
"I'm not a midget!" I yelled, she turned to me and sighed,
"You, what do you know about Shi- Sharon?" She asked. She was serious, "So?"
"She's a necromancer, she can't talk and…" I tired thinking back, but I barely knew her.
"Did she tell you that?" Camilla asked,
"No, but it seemed like it." She looked to the side,
"Anything else?"
"No… not really,"
"Really, then Sharon will tell you everything soon-" Camilla froze in the middle of her sentence and looked out the window,
"What's wrong?" she didn't reply, "Cami-"
She walked to the window and stayed silent,
"Hey," Hal walked over to her and shook her shoulder, "What's wrong-"
"Hal, we should stay here for a while," she finally said, "We'll take turns watching over Sharon and him," Hal looked out the window and nodded with agreement,
"I understand," Camilla turned and walked down the hall to Sharon's room,
"You stay here with him," she ordered, then walked in to the room closing the door behind her. Hal let out an exasperated sigh,
"What was that about?" I asked. He sat down and put his hat beside him,
"The chessboard was turned," he muttered,
"Eh?"
~*~ Change of POV
The sun quickly subsided as the shroud of night crawled upon the world. The halls of the hospital stood silent as a sly shadow crept through the darkness. As each second past, the shadow got closer and closer to the fifth door on the left. Four doors, three doors, two doors… standing behind the last door, the knob was turned creaking the door open. Inside the room, there was no one but a single bed with soul sleeping there. Brushing a lock of golden yellow behind the ear, a pitchfork was lifted. A piercing sound shot through the bed but not a satisfying result.
"What about the order, Eliza Z. Erna?"
The girl turned back to the figure dressed in red. Dropping her hood to reveal her silver locks of hair. Lightning clashed and the thunder echoed through the halls,
"It's unlike you to break rules of our elders,"
The girl gave Camilla a dark grin and pulled out her pitchfork from the bed. Throwing back another lock of her hair back she turned facing Camilla.
"I see you changed your looks again, Camilla C. Frauke." Camilla gave a smirk.
"Yeah, but red isn't my thing," Camilla snapped her fingers and her red dress and cloak turned to a dark blue dress with dark brown boots, her hair pulled up into a high ponytail by a blue ribbon. "I still prefer the Countess in Blue," A magic circle appeared by her side and the room glowed with a bright blue lights, "Engel Narben," She whispered.
The bright light engulfed the halls and bright blue flames broke out of every window.
