Of Weakness and Strengths
O.o.o.O
AN: Sorry about this...
O.o.o.O
After a few hours, the group of Exorcists and teachers found the girl. Teresa apparently stopped the large dragon, turning it into a teenaged girl.
The girl had dark turquoise hair, causing Dai and Yuu to think of that idiotic kid that their 'father' brought in. The girl looked as if she had been underfed for quite some time, as she seemed a bit wild. Daylon cautiously walked up to her, and nudged her. She looked at him, and the man looked surprised. The girl's milky white eyes saw nothing, yet she could tell where he was.
"Ehm?" Allen begun. "Are you...human? Or an Akuma?" He kept his Innocence hand in the open, in case the girl was an Akuma.
"I have no idea what an 'Akuma' is," she replied, raising her eyebrow. "Several years ago, I found out that I could turn into this creature, after gealing someone."
"Tch, why'd you try kidnapping Mother?" Kanda asked.
"I felt that there was something...off about you four..." the girl replied, her head cocking a bit to the side.
"Well, Kanda is obviously crazy. Terry-berry has...that problem...I don't know about Al...Daisya is normal..." Daylon said, scratching his chin.
"Now that you know most of our names, my name is Ranae Smith, math and geography teacher, with oceanography as a fascination. The idiot ("Hey! Its the other one who's the idiot!") is Daylon Long. Your name?"
"Chance Haleer, high school student. I was living with my parents, when they passed away. I have been living with a friend when he suddenly had to move to naother town. The shock left me turning into this...beast," Chance said, as she tripped over a rock, right into the arms of Daylon and Ranae.
"Also, my name is Dylon. My idiot brother is busy teaching."
"Aw, sorry about. You teo are too similar sometimes," Ranae said, holding onto the blind girl's left side.
Terry held Allen's hand, as this went on. He was the closest to the girl, and this caused both to blush. All eyes were on the blind girl, for non eof them noticed how close they were to a river. Kanda, being the easily angered man that he will always be, jumped at the two bickering teachers, intending on...murder? As hedid this, he knocked Terry and Allen towards said river, as Daisya jumped behind them.
Splash!
Terry landed on Allen, who. in turn, landed on Daisya. Chance perked her head up, as the sickly sweet smell of blooded came to her sensitive nose. Blood slowly flowed down the river, as the soccer man growned in pain. Ranae led the blind girl to the three, who safely (mostly) got out of the river. Daisya's head was all bloody, seemingly from hitting the side of the water. Chance touched his hand as she neared him, and blue...stuff?...came toward his wound. As this happened, Chance's head seemed to have the same wound as the boy, as his head slowly fixed up. Chance fell unconscious, causing Terry to catch her.
O.o.o.O
"So, both sides gave us three hotel rooms..." Ranae said, anger ticks creeping up her face.
"Five beds in all...And seven of us..." Terry replied.
"So, some of us will have to double up?" Dylon said, for his brother got him to put on the wrong clothing, thus causing the mess they were in.
"Chance is still sleeping, so the other bed will have to be occupied by one of the boys. Uncle Sheryl and Tyki want me in my own room..."
"What about Allen? He's attempted to room with Kanda, and he was kicked out. Daisya is staying with Kanda instead..." Dylon said.
"Dylly and I will stay with dragon girl. Since you and Allen seemed to be able to get along for several days, according to the city of Mater report..."
"He's asexual, so he won't try anything," Dylon said, rubbing his head from where Ranae hit him. "Do you have a couch in your room?"
"I think there's a couch in my room..."
Knock...
Knock...
Knock...
"Who can that be at this hour?" Ranae asked, as she went to open the door.
Kanda and Allen glared at each other, as Daisya gave a sheepish grin. In from of the door stood a bottle with a note. Ranae walked over and read the note.
Congrats on finding out that there is more than Akuma and Dolls in this world! I wish for you to believe, always, in the hidden factions of this war, and help those who need it the most. For a present, I give you sparkling cider!
Enjoy it with pizza, from down the street!
"Allen, since you're a nice boy, can you go to this pizza place?" Ranae asked, sweetly raising her annoyed attitude.
"Sure!" the boy yelped, as he ran off.
O.o.o.O
When Allen came back with the pizzas, he was shocked to see the whole group completely drunk. Carefully walking over Daisya, Ranae, and Dylon, he made it to the bed. He looked around the room, for what, he doesn't know. Kanda seemed to not be there, as he got mad and went to bed already, and he didn't see Teresa anywhere. Just as he began eating one of the twenty boxes of pizza, he felt a hand on his chest. Smelling alcohol, he turned toward the white haired girl.
'Awe, crap...'
"Slr..sleppy...wann...warm...beddy?"
"Ehm, here. Follow me..." he replied, as he did the only thing he could think...taking the girl to her hotel room.
O.o.o.O
Terry woke up, her head pounding, as her hand lay on a strange red arm. Looking up the bed from where she layed, she saw Allen's peacefully sleeping face. She gently squeezed his hand, as she felt the headache from the not sparkling cider.
Allen woke up, his eyes meeting the lighter grey eyes of Teresa Shade, who seemed to look as if she liked being on top of something warm. Sudden knocking caused both to quickly get up. Terry rubbed her eyes, as Allen and her walk toward the door. Terry opened it, and saw that it was only Daisya, Ranae, and Chance, all three seemed to have splitting headaches.
"I think...we were..." Ranae begun.
"Drugged? This never happened before..." Terry replied, as silently as she could.
"Well, this girly said she could only heal a certain amount of time before she faints, so she can't cure us," Daisya said.
"Well, lets not tell anyone about this. Any of it. The idiot's other half will destroy us all," Ranae replied.
"Aussie won't do anything wrong...And Daylon seems like a nice guy..." Teresa said.
"Eh, I might not be talking about them..."
O.o.o.O
Several hours of Allen bickering with Kanda, the group finally made it to the plane. Ranae and the others decided to let the strange dragon girl stay with Teresa. The only reason is that Terry wanted to talk to the girl.
"So, can—"
"Do you know someone named Jake Vaughn?" Chance suddenly asks.
"Yeah, he was a child of a finder who died a while ago..." Terry says, hoping to finish her question.
"Well, he and I are together. We've been together for several years now. He told me that he lost his guardians in an attack, and that he had to switch schools. How is he doing?"
"Well, Al seems to find him nice..."
"Ah...he knows how to make friends..."
"Anyways, can your powers cure curses?"
"Depends on the curse?"
"Cursed eyes. Five eyes in all. Al, my brother Aus, and myself..."
"I cannot do that..."
"Why not?"
"My eyes...I used to be able to see...I promised someone I would keep their blind eyes for a while..." Chance said, 'staring' into space, remembering that time...
