AN: I do NOT own Kuroshitsuji (Black Butler) or D. Gray-Man!
I don't have anything important to do and even though I should be doing homework, writing more was all I could think about at school! I wanna thank those who reviewed and followed it! This is my first Fan fic too so...THANK YOU! Now, onto the next chapter!
The room stopped shaking and Sebastian was standing behind Ciel who lost his footing. Everyone was quiet and not even Lavi who always felt the need to say what was on his mind was quiet.
"Do you know him Allen-kun?" asked Lenalee.
The young white-haired boy painfully sat up and looked at Ciel. Ciel's eyes widened as realization dawned on him. He felt he met this person before. But that was just nothing but a feeling. He didn't really know if it was the truth or not.
"Ciel Phantomhive...what are you doing here?" asked Allen.
Lenalee could hear the panic rise in Allen's voice. But before anybody could answer, the butler gave a slight chuckle.
"Well, I had a feeling I've seen that face before. You've certainly changed your appearance though. The last time the young master and I saw you, your scar wasn't as big and you were but a little boy."
Allen grit his teeth. It took all of him to stop himself from activating his innocence and destroying the smile that Sebastian was wearing.
"Kanda, you can feel it right? The aura that he emits is different than any human," said Allen, who looked down and didn't lift up his head.
"His aura is dark and muddy. I can feel the evilness coming off from his body like he is a demon himself," said Kanda, who slowly began to take off his wet black coat. It revealed his exorcist uniform, still red because he refused to take any of the gold color as the other generals have.
Ciel looked at the young asian male that was able to guess out Sebastian's true nature. He wanted to know who these people were and what they wanted.
"I'm so sorry but as much as I want to stay here, I need to get back to my beans. I worry terribly that dinner will end up late too," said Sebastian checking his pocket watch again.
He left the room quickly and before anybody got the chance to say anything, Tim flew in with the speed of a monster. He hovered in front of Allen's face and both their tears ran out the corner of their eyes.
"T-Timcanpy! You are all right! Ahh how I missed you! I haven't seen you in forever!" said Allen through sobs.
"So Tim was yours huh?" said Ciel.
"Yes. Were you taking care of him here?" asked Allen.
"More like he barged in here. Besides I owe half my life to that thing for getting help when I was having an-"
He stopped mid-sentence because he thought they didn't feel the need to tell them about him. Ciel sat down in a nearby chair and relaxed himself. Tanaka followed suite and inflated, turning back into his recharging form.
"Um...Mister Lavi...I couldn't help but notice the book you're carrying. What is it about?" asked Finny.
"Oh this, well it's a book about birds. There is even drawings! Did you wanna see?! Did you wanna see?!" asked Lavi getting excited that someone was interested in his book.
As those two indulged themselves in conversations about birds, Ciel was observing the people. They most likely worked in an organization judging by the fact that they wore matching black uniforms with red piping. He noticed that the girl had cross shaped scars close to her ankles and a red bangle hung limply on them. The other asian man had the same crossed shaped scar that was revealed when the sleeves of his shirt opened up a bit and rolled down. He had the same red bangles.
"Young master is there something wrong?" asked Mey-Rin.
Ciel blushed for no reason and said, "Go and help Sebastian set up for dinner. We have guests meaning more plates and chairs to set out. Quit loitering here. You too Finny!"
The maid and gardener left to help the butler and chef with preparations. The storm outside didn't seem to die down at all but seemed to be getting worse.
"So what do you guys do and where are you people from?" asked Ciel.
"We're exorcists and we work for the Black Order. Getting rid of Akumas is our job," said Lavi.
"The Black Order? I've never heard about it before. If you are exorcists, what were you doing that made you some here for shelter?"
Allen looked at his innocence hand and heeved a heavy sigh.
"We were sent on a mission to find a certain akuma that has been causing trouble around the area. Our superior told us that the akuma was killing off citizens," said Allen.
He held Tim and Tim seemed to smile. Suddenly, his spherical body bagan to jerk like he was about to throw up. But out of nowhere, the blue bird that he had swallowed that morning came out of his mouth along with the other object.
"Tim, nice job! You saved the innocence and you still have the birds body!" said Lavi, reaching for the bird.
Kanda took the innocence and put it in his bag that hung off his belt around is waist. Ciel watched closely as the Lavi untied a piece of paper from the birds leg that Ciel had failed to see before. He straightened his back and unfolded the tiny piece of paper. He took sometime to read it before giving it to Kanda.
"Damn...everybody we were lied to. That akuma can duplicate itself. We only killed a clone of it. We aren't done with our mission yet. There is still the incident with the little girl. She is still missing," said Kanda.
They heard footsteps coming from the hallway and Ciel thought it was Sebastian until the childlike laughing separated itself from the sounds of the storm outside. Kanda held his hands out in front of Ciel and so did Lenalee and Lavi. Allen sat up and prepared himself for whoever was laughing.
"Let...me...in...friends..."
The person knocked twice and repeated the same sentence twice more.
"Let...me...in...friends.."
AN: I hope it made some sense. I am also planning to write longer chapters later.
