Baka-sama: WHY YOU LITTLE...! -attempts to strangle hanekaruchan-
hanekaruchan: -dodges-
Baka-sama: -plants face on a very conveniently set up grill-
ITAIIIIIII!
hanekaruchan: Right, now that Baka-sama is out of the picture, I will say, in answer to the A/N Baka-sama posted without telling me, that yes, I am the partner that did not let her post the next chapter. She wasn't done with it anyway.
Baka-sama: LIES!
hanekaruchan: NO YOU! GO AWAY! I SHALL SUMMON SOME AWESOME BOUNCY JELLY TO DESTROY YOU!
Baka-sama: … what the fuck, man?
hanekaruchan: SEE? SEE! YOU DISRUPT MY BRAIN WAVES! SHOO!
Baka-sama: Aren't you already an idiot? You HAVE NO BRAIN WAVES.
hanekaruchan: OH SHUT UP! So its my fault, eh, that a person like you just happens to be friends as well as in the same school with a person like me, and I know that you know you SO did not finish this story and you still wanted to post it anyway, person with incomplete brain waves, or none at all, and I know that this is a run on sentence, but WHO THE FUCK CARES?
Baka-sama: … … I'M GOING TO BURN YOUR CRANES!
hanekaruchan: WHAT! NO, STAY AWAY! GO, AWESOME BOUNCY JELLY! I WILL DESTROY YOU!
Another day of chaos ensues in the A/N.
All that aside, I, hanekaruchan, just wanted to know that people wanted to read this story, but with the lack of reviews, I couldn't determine so. I'm sorry for taking so long.
Right, me, Baka-sama, say that we do not own D. Gray Man (yes, this is a disclaimer), otherwise Lavi and Allen would SO be together. (hanekaruchan: OR KANDA AND ALLEN!)
Yes, that too.
Please enjoy!
Memory
Chapter 2 - Awakening
By Waya-Sama; co writer hanekaruchan
The 3 of them stood, stunned into silence by their new discovery.
"Uso…" Lavi gasped in horror, taking a step back.
Kanda's eyes twitched.
"Moyashi…"
"What are we going to do…?" Tears welled up in Lenalee's eyes.
Lavi was getting just as teary as Lenalee was. "We must…" He was interrupted by the door creaking open.
"Allen?" Krory peeked inside the room, the door opening a crack. To his surprise, Lavi was holding onto Allen's head as tightly as he could, desperately trying to hide the stigma freshly engraved in Allen's forehead.
"Oh… it's you…" Everyone sighed in relief, while Krory looked confused.
"Um… am I disturbing…. something...?" Krory blushed at the sight of Lavi hugging Allen.
"Iie, n-nandemonai-"
Allen's eyes shot open, as he woke up screaming. Startled by Allen's sudden movement, everyone flinched, Kanda included.
"Oi, Allen, daijoubu?" Lavi asked carefully.
Allen's silver eyes panned the room. Noticing the bloodstain on Lavi's shirt, he blinked.
"Lavi, your shirt...?" Allen asked worriedly.
"Eh?"
"There." Allen pointed at the patch.
"Lavi-kun, are you injured?" Krory fidgeted, intervening immediately, his eyes baring into Lavi's shirt.
Lavi and Lenalee exchanged nervous looks. Kanda was looking in another direction.
"Uh, I spilled grape juice on myself earlier."
Lenalee slapped her forehead.
"Um... Lenalee-san?" Krory glanced worriedly around, before his eyes landed on Kanda, expecting him to do something drastic.
"Che." Kanda smoothly strode towards the door and left.
Silence.
"Kuro-chan, can you go get Allen some water?" Lavi asked abruptly.
"Huh? Sure, but-"
"But I'm not- MMMPFH!" Lavi's hand swifly covered Allen's mouth.
"If you please, Kuro-chan?"
With a puzzled look on his face, Krory excused himself before backing out of the room.
Krory safely out of the way, Lavi flung his arms around Allen's neck.
"Moyashiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii!" He sobbed, trying to act normally.
"..." Lenalee looked away, waves of jealously seeping from her pores.
"HAA?..." Allen blinked owlishly. "Uh, Lavi, could you GET OFF ME?"
"Come on, Lavi-kun, get off him." Lenalee agreed firmly, pulling the red head off her Allen.
Lavi struggled briefly before pouting and letting himself get pulled off.
"So, why are you guys in my room?" Allen pushed the covers back and stretched. Walking over to his drawers, he rummaged through them to find a shirt.
Lenalee and Lavi gaped at his back.
"W-wait, so you don't remember?" Lavi asked hesistantly.
"Remember what- aha!" Allen pulled out the shirt he was looking for. He discarded his shirt, revealing his toned figure and pale, translucent skin.
Lavi and Lenalee's jaws dropped. Lavi attempted to pinch his nose to keep it from bleeding all over the floor, while Lenalee slapped her face repeatedly, reminding herself to snap out of it.
Allen pulled his other shirt on, and combed his fingers through his white hair.
"Oh, sorry, what were you going to say earlier?"
"N-nothing."
"Okay..." His blackened innocence hand grasped the door handle and turned it. "I'm going to go train... see you later."
They said nothing as the Destroyer of Time left his room and headed towards the training rooms.
"Stalk him?"
"Stalk him." They reached a silent agreement before following.
Allen, fortunately, in his state of unawareness of anything, did not run into any Black Order personnel on his way towards the training rooms. He whistled lightly as he entered the training room, shutting the door behind him.
As expected, Kanda was meditating quietly in the middle of room, looking as serene as always, if not for the everlasting frown on his face. His golem flittered quietly around his head, trying to maintain its silence.
"Morning, Kanda." He yawned.
Kanda twitched noticeably as he cracked open an eye before closing it, pretending not to notice Allen.
"Oi, BaKanda. I'm talking to you."
Kanda's eyes opened as he gave him a full force glare, filled with killer intent.
Allen raised his hands in surrender. "Okay, okay." He seemed to say.
Kanda sighed deeply before going back into silence. Outside, Lenalee and Lavi both shoved each other trying to get a better look of Allen from the small keyhole.
"Innocence, hatsudou." Allen mumbled, the fingers on his left hand transforming into elongated claws, complete with crown rings wound around them. He raised his right hand, hovering it above his left. The activated arm began to glow as it slowly morphed into the familiar sword. He started to slash through the air which made him look like he was mentally ill, but Lelalee and Lavi just stared at Allen in awe.
He stopped suddenly before turning around.
"Kanda."
The samurai remained silent.
"Oi, BaKanda!"
Kanda, irritated by this disturbance opened his eyes.
"What?" He snapped.
"Can you spar with me? It feels strange just swinging this around..." He trailed off.
"Che." Was all he provided.
"Fine then." Allen muttered quietly, followed by a sigh. He started swinging again.
Gradually, the normally silent 'whoosh' that Kanda heard increased in volume as Allen began slashing with much more power and aggression.
Kanda shook his head in disgust. Swordsmen were supposed to move with grace. Power was not everything – though it is a good thing to have, he supposed.
Wait.
He opened one eye, studying Allen's form. His eyes narrowed. They had been together on a lot of missions, so Kanda was familiar with Allen's fighting style. The way Allen was fighting now seemed different.
Allen's expression was uninterpretable as he simulated and aimed for only the vital spots of a human being. Slashing uncontrollably, Allen slowly inched towards Kanda.
"Oi! Baka-Moyashi!" Kanda yelled after Allen. "What the hell are you doing?"
"Die! Exorcist!" Allen growled. His now harsh golden eyes stared him down as he raised his sword, intending on bringing it down upon Kanda's head.
"Kusou! Moyashi!" He dodged, barely, and saw the floor he was sitting on a moment ago split. "Mugen, hatsudou!" He growled, quickly running his fingers over his trusted blade, which began to glow with green. He lunged for Allen, hoping to knock the sword from his grip.
Lavi and Lenalee, no longer bothering for secrecy, kicked the door open in time to see Kanda stumble and drop to the floor, the blood piling underneath him.
"Kanda-kun!" "Yuu!" They yelled simultaneously, terrified.
Allen – or was he no longer Allen? - raised his boot, wanting to stomp on and crush Kanda's skull. However, he winced and recoiled away before he had the chance to. His sword clattered to the ground.
"Stay back, Noah." He growled, his hands massaging his temples. His hair had taken on a light brown color, no longer the white that they had gotten so used to.
A moment of silence ensued as the Allen look-a-like continued his mental battle.
"Now, now." He returned the sword to his arm and casually slipped a glove on it. "Sorry, little exorcist. If you HAD been faster, this would've never happened, you know?"
Kanda, who to their relief, was still very much alive, bit out a sarcastic response. "You are still a thousand years away from beating me in speed, Moyashi." He flinched as he sat up. Noticing the golden eyes, he continued. "But you aren't the Moyashi, are you?"
A grin. Stigmata suddenly lined his forehead as he pushed back his hair to thoroughly reveal the marks.
"Very well done, Yuu-chan."
Kanda looked like he was going to run his blade through the newly awakened Noah. But his slashed arm prevented him from doing so.
"Don't call me that." He seethed.
"Well, Yuu-chan," the Noah grinned ferally. "It doesn't seem like you are in the position for making threats, are you?"
"Shut up. Who are you and what have you done with the Moyashi?"
"Why, Yuu-chan, I never knew you cared." He dramatically placed a hand over his heart. "I'm touched."
"Che. I would let Mugen drink all your blood if you weren't residing the troublesome Moyashi with a hero complex's body."
The room suddenly filled with a 'dot dot dot' atmosphere before the Noah burst out in laughter.
"Ah, you humans are so amusing." He said in between laughs, wiping his eyes when he was finally reduced to a low chuckle.
"Who are you?" Lenalee whispered.
"Oh, I'm sorry, how rude." He bowed low before the three Exorcists. "Nice to meet you, little Exorcists. I am the Fourteenth of the Noah Clan, and I am on your side." He smiled almost maniacally. "Looking forward to working with you."
Baka-sama: There we go. Another chapter done. It is a little short for a long absence, but sorry!
hanekaruchan: Yeah, I had to write most of the ending myself because the lazy main author couldn't be effing bothered.
Baka-sama: … … GO AWESOME BOUNCY JELLY!
hanekaruchan: WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING, JELLY? YOU ARE UNDER MY COMMAND! D8
Baka-sama: They hate you.
hanekaruchan: LIES. YOU LIE.
Baka-sama: NO YOU.
Another war ensues on the A/N.
Readers, please continue to review! hanekaruchan won't be as strict on reviews as she was last time, but she will be mad if no one bothers to review at all! At least 20, she says.
If you are going to flame, kindly burn up the AWESOME BOUNCY JELLY because we aren't using them anymore for A/Ns. Except for eating.
Thank you for reading!
