Sorry! Sorry! Sorry! Sorry! Sorry! Sorry! I am sooooooo sorry! I haven't updated in a while... You probably might have thought that i died... Well i am alive and truly sorry for being late! I have been writing in my notebook during class but either A) the teacher catches me and scolds me for not paying attention B)an annoying person comes up to me and ask about what I'm writing and when i ignore them they just irritate me further that i finally close my notebook or C) i forgot my notebook at home. Well enough excuses, its time for disclaimers.

Hopefully it is good... :D
Chapter 9
The three exorcist had stood up from their places on the ground and were scanning their surroundings for any threats. An emerald green eye wandered off to look at the evening sky which had the sun high in the blue sky which had little bits of clouds in scattered here and there. By the looks of it, only a few hours had passed since they met Wisely. Gray eyes were looking around but barely taking in the surroundings as thought and emotions raced through his mind and heart. Cobalt eyes were taking in as much detail as possible. The surrounding trees had healthy green leaves which was the same green as the patches of grass on the ground.
They were all in the same place that they have been in since they have met Wisely on the dirt path on the outskirts of the little town that they have finished a mission in to retrieve a piece of innocence. The surrounding trees were at the sides of the path and green leaves were swaying in the wind while some dances in the wind as they gracefully floated down. The sunlight was filtering through some of the gaps in the leaves and create spots on the ground in the shadows under the trees.
As the three teens were scanning the area, they had found a tiny spot of red that stuck out from behind a tree. Kanda narrowed his eyes and clicked his tongue in annoyance of the possibility of the person that showed up at his moment. Kanda swiftly walked towards the tree while taking Mugen out of the sheath that hung from his waist. Allen and Lavi stayed at the same spot as if waiting for the samurai to bring back the troublesome person to start asking some questions.
Kanda gripped his gripped his trust-worthy sword and quickly swung it towards the general and halted his sword only when the metal was touching the skin of the victim's neck. The sword had been sharp enough to draw some blood even when the metal had only touched the skin like a simple feather. The usually lazy and drunk general now had a serious look in his eyes that to scream that he meant business.
Kanda gave one more infamous "Che" in annoyance as he lowered his sword and barked out "What the hell do you want?". Cross had ignored the pissed off samurai and walked out to where Allen and Lavi was. The short albino was glaring at the man who surprisingly wasn't smoking at the moment. Finally, Cross heaved out a sigh as he spoke "You remember everything now, don't you?"
Allen had only widened his eyes while he nodded. He was actually surprised that Cross remembered Tsuki. He had thought that he might have also been erased of the memories. Suddenly, Allen started to glare once again at his master. "You knew all along and you didn't tell me?" Allen questioned, furious that Cross didn't tell him that he remembered about Tsuki or even try to stop her.
Cross didn't flinch t Allen's deadly aura or the question that seemed to drip with a deadly poison. However Lavi and even Kanda did. Lavi was nervous on what events would happen next and had jumped an inch when Allen's aura appeared. Kanda had only flinched a centimeter and quickly regained his composure before anyone could notice.
In Allen's eyes was a fire of anger which was quickly put out when Cross explained "Cause she told me to keep quiet. Besides, you were the the one who promised to remember. I don't remember you saying someone else was going to solve it for you".
Allen's eyes widened when he recalled whet he had promised. He quickly asked in a worried tone "Where is she?"
Cross replied "" Don't worry, she's safe. She left to..." Cross trailed of but quickly covered up his mistake "She said she would wait for you to remember and find her." Allen hesitated but nodded slowly.
"Well she gave me a clue to where she is to give to you " Cross dug his hands into his exorcist coat pocket and placed a musical bass sign connected to a sliver chain and a small sealed letter into Allen's hands. "And don't worry, I didn't open the letter"
Allen stared at the bass clef and was marveled at how beautiful it looked despite how old it was. The bass clef had looked as clean and glossy black like the day he first received it from Tsuki. He smiled as he slowly opened the letter. Inside it read:
Allen,
Hey, do you want to play a game? I know! Let's play Treasure. If you want, you can invite some friends to play.
Cross has given this letter to you right? Good, Cause i thought he would disregard my request.
Anyways, the clue has been given to you along with this letter.
This game is really easy since the answer is so obvious.
Hey, when we meet, let's go get some candy! Let's also do other things like play cards.
Who knows, maybe i might beat you! Won't that be great!
Well you probably won't be happy since i might steal you title and break you undefeated record.
I know. you might be thinking that i am really silly to be so carefree in this letter.
But, i really am sad. I don't want to leave but i have to.
I have some unfinished business to do. Anyways, i hope that you will find me. I will wait as long as i have to.
But please, don't make me wait too long or I'll cry.
You know i hate crying! Remember that time when that dog barked so loudly that it scared me that i cried!
That was super scary! But...
The fear that you probably won't remember or even care to find me is so terrifying...
Ah, I'm crying! The teardrops are getting the pages wet but it will probably disappear by the time you read this.
Oh, i wonder if you made any new friends. If so, are they nice? Are they weird?
Are your friends fun to be around? I wonder how they look like.
Ah, i might also meet Grandma's house! Maybe Ba-Ba might be there too!
it's always fun to be there! Though, Grandma always scolds us for not doing the chores and messing things up...
i still have the habit of calling her Grandma even though she really isn't...
I actually think of all of us like a small family... You, me, Cross, Ba-Ba, and Grandma...
It's great isn't it? I finally have people to think of as family and i just feel like i should be grateful.
Yes... I am grateful. truly grateful... So, i will try to finish some unwanted business so that i won't make anything troublesome to the people that i love...
I wonder about so many things. But the answers will be in the future.
I hope that we will meet again soon.
-Tsuki
By the end of the letter, Allen was overcome with different emotions. He was confused by the fake happiness at the beginning then the truth of her sadness that she had revealed in a few sentences. However, he was... happy. Happy that she didn't leave him without much thought. It appeared that she had thought about how to leave but not make others worry or hurt anyone.
But, he was still worried. This letter was given to Cross before she left and its been a few years since then... Who knows how she is? She has innocence and she may be fighting Akuma. It also doesn't help that the Noahs are still looking for other acommedators and innocence to destroy. It also doesn't help that the Earl had already seen her on the day that he turned Mana into an Akuma. He already looked like he has taken an interest on her that very night.
But, what was really irritating him was that he was never told exactly why Tsuki had left. And by the way that Cross trailed off earlier before changing the topic, showed that he wasn't going to say anything anytime soon.
He looked up from the letter and saw the worried look from Lavi, the slightly concerned glare from Kanda, and an annoyed yet soft look from Cross. All that Allen could do was smile as some tears were welling up in his eyes, almost overflowing. Cross and Kanda softened their gazes only slightly as Lavi walked over to give Allen an assuring hand on his shoulder.
Allen looked at everyone and smiled again as he told them what he had planned to do ever since ha was done reading the letter.
"... Do any of you want to play some game? I want to play Treasure first..."
A/N: Okay so i have been thinking, would you guys like a side story? I'm planning to write one about Tsuki, Allen, and chocolate milk but i don't know if you guys want one. I'm also planning a profile chapter. You know, when the main character's profile are shown... I could post that after i bring out the other characters and probably upload the short side story maybe after i post the next chapter... So... Review? Please tell me how I'm doing cause right now, I've been having some plot bunnies in my head and makes me almost forget about this story... I mean, i have been starting some projects but i only have three that seem good enough but i know that i have to focus on this story first before doing some other story... I need to add a lot more chapters if i can even consider posting another story... Anyways, i will try to work more on this story! I've only remembered that i needed to upload a new chapter when someone favorited this story... So thanks! XD See you soon! (hopefully)
