My 'Innocent' Life
Story 2: The 'Lying' Game
AN: Yep, as you can see, I am going to do more of these since my sister NekoAllenLover loved the first one-shot of it. Well, here it is, a bit longer this time, hope you fans don't get too offended by this. Like I said before, I haven't seen much of D. Gray Man (just a few/couple of episodes) and don't know much about it in general so I may be off on some detail. But I wanted to make my sis happy and make another one of these (it was her idea for me to make some after all, since she loved what I had done to them in the past, which I may get into later). Anyways, hope you enjoy and please don't flame me or this, I'm innocent I tell you, INNOCENT! D:
"Allen-chan, where are you?" Lavi called out loudly while searching for his favorite white-haired friend down the halls. Actually he was the only white-haired friend he had.
"Man, where could he be? Hmm, I never knew he would be so good at hiding, if we were to play hide and seek..." He said to himself.
Not watching where he was going, he accidentally bumps into his fighting comrade, Yuu Kanda, who was already in a pissed-off state from 'before' and did not take lightly to Lavi's presence. "Hey, watch where your walking baka!" He barked at the guy.
"Sorry about that Yuu, as you can see, I'm looking for Allen-chan. Have you seen him anywhere?"
'No, I didn't SEE that, baka.' "Now how the hell would I know where that brat goes to after missions?"
"Because... because you—"
"If you mention me in that topic, I won't help you." Lavi cracks a smile at the response, to which Kanda walks away annoyed.
The red-head gets in front of him and waves his hands rapidly, apparently meaning to tell him not to worry. "Ok, I won't talk about it then." 'Sheesh, can't he take a joke?'
"...You aren't going to leave me alone unless I tell you, right?"
"Pretty much."
"Ugh, I guess he was somewhere in the lounge over there, but I don't know for sure though."
"Alright, then I'll check it out, haven't gotten there yet. Thanks Yuu, I owe ya one!" Lavi exclaims as he passes Kanda and makes it to the lounge on the bottom floor.
"Hey, don't call me that!" Kanda called out to him, but it was too late, Lavi had already ran ahead to the bottom floor in hopes of finding Allen. "Ugh, that guy sometimes..." He sighed and face palmed. He, nevertheless, ignored it and decided to go back to his room to train a little bit more.
.-.-.-.
Meanwhile, Allen Walker was reading a book on a couch with his small companion-friend, Timcampy, who was floating around trying to get a closer look at the book he was reading.
"Hey, Allen-chan, are you here?" Lavi called out to Allen from afar.
"Hai..." Allen replied, while his eyes were still fixated in the book.
"Allen-chan, I've been looking everywhere for ya buddy! Well, almost everywhere that is..."
"Mmm hmm."
"Anyways, I actually made up this really fun game that I thought you would enjoy, and I was wondering if you'd like hear it..."
"Ok, lay it on me."
Lavi starts snickering at the response.
This made Allen look up from his book, a little confused at why he's doing that. "Is there something that you found funny or amusing Lavi?" He asked in a polite tone.
"Well..." Lavi starts giggling again, "ya see... I actually fibbed when I said that I made up the game. I believe someone else made it up before I did."
"Um, ok?" Allen sounded disappointed and went back to reading.
"No wait just hear me out on this! I lied when I said that too." Lavi tried to protest.
"Now I'm confused. Why are you lying to me about this?"
"No no no, that's actually part of the game that I made up." He explained, "Ya see, all you gotta do is think up a creative lie and fool someone with it. Sounds simple, right? Wrong. As you lie more and more to someone they'll stop believing you and it gets harder to fool them and you have to think more about what you say next."
"That sounds kind of lame..." Allen concluded after turning a page on the book.
"B-but Allen-kun, you need to experience it in order to understand that—"
"I'm lying of course, that sounds very interesting Lavi." He said, looking up at Lavi with a warm smile.
'Oh wow, he's already playing it and surpassing me! We'll see how this lasts...'
"Alright, you seem to know what you're doing... why don't we test this out on some of the members here." Lavi said while looking for some fish to fry. He catches a glimpse of Lenalee Lee walking by. 'Stri-ku.' He turns back to Allen and whispers to him. "Now you just sit here and watch the master at work."
As he walks on over to where Lenalee was and started to strike up a conversation with her. "Can I help you?" Lenalee asked politely.
"Yes, I was wondering if you would do me a favor and get something for me. You see, I accidently left this book at the library called... called... 'Sūpāsutoraikāzu'."
"Really?"
"Yes, and I would really appreciate it if you would go and get it for me."
"Well, I'm not really busy with anything, so I guess I'll go and check it out then." Lenalee shrugged it off and went to go retrieve the book.
"Thanks Lenalee, you're a life saver!" Lavi comes back to the couch with a satisfying grin on his face. "Did you see that? She totally bought it!" He asked Allen.
"Yes, I saw it."
"Wasn't that hilarious?"
"I lied, I wasn't paying any attention."
"Well, then let's see if YOU can top me and my lying skills! Pick an opponent, but pick wisely."
"Alright." 'Now, who should I do it on?' Just then, while Allen was looking around for someone to fool, he notices Kanda walking down the aisle/corridors with his Mugen in tact. Allen made a mischievous smile. 'Perfect.' "Hey Lavi, I think I know who'd I like to try the game on!" He whisper-yelled at Lavi.
"Ohhh, do tell." Allen gets up and starts to go to where Kanda was, with Lavi watching from afar. "That's my boy, choosing the tougher opponents first! We'll just see how this unfolds..." He snickers while rubbing his hands together.
"Hey Kanda, how's it going?" Allen makes it to where he was supposed to be and greets him with a pleasant smile.
"Humph, it has nothing to do with you Moyashi, so go away." Kanda said in disgust, turning his head away from him for a brief moment.
"Aw, but I just wanted to know how you were feeling today..." He said, sounding disappointed with his response.
"But why the fuck do you have to know?" Ponytail guy asked while turning his head back at Allen.
"I was just curious, that's all."
"...Well, I was just going to get something to eat and then go back into my room. That's it."
"Do you at least want to know what Lavi and I were talking about?"
"What?" Kanda was a little shocked by the response, but shrugs it off anyway. "I would like to eat and train, and do it in peace. Now if you'll excuse me..." Kanda was just about to walk off, when suddenly, Allen grabs his arm and mutters something in a low voice. "Hey Moyashi, what the hell are you—"
"My left eye... it senses... an Akuma."
"What? Where?"
"Sh, it's somewhere in this room. We don't want to disturb it or else it'll give out a surprise attack. We should do the same thing if we want to defeat it."
"Right."
Allen's left eye starts glowing. "Crap, it moved in the dining hall!" He exclaimed while pointing at the room.
"I'm on it." Kanda takes out his Mugen and dashes off.
'Hmm, I wonder if he fell for it or not...' Allen thought, to which Lavi walks in with a great big smile on his face and pats him on the shoulder.
"Nice-a job Allen-chan, you totally fooled him! I didn't think you could pull it off but you did, wait until he sees the look on his face, he's gonna get piiiiiissed."
"Huh? What are you talking about?"
"Huh? I'm talking about what you said to Yuu..."
"Oh that. It actually wasn't a lie; I really did sense an Akuma in the kitchen."
"Eh? But I thought—"
"Ya see, I actually lied when I said that I was going to lie to someone today. You should really see the look on your face right now, it's pretty hysterical."
'Oh damn, he's better at it than I thought! He even fooled the master at lying: me!'
"Hey guys, I'm back." Kanda walks out of the room with a piece of rolled bread on one hand and his sword on another. "The Akuma wasn't really all that powerful, just a level one, so I didn't get any training from that at all." He sighed and took another bite at the bread. "Anyways, what's this about 'lying' that I heard you guys talk about?"
'Oh shit!'
"Well, Lavi was showing me this game where you have to lie and fool other people, and he was expecting me to do it on you, so to speak." Allen replied, which in turn, freaked Lavi out.
"Oh, so THAT was why you were searching for Moyashi, huh?"
"N-No that wasn't... the entire reason... please don't hurt me!" Lavi squealed as he covered his face in worry.
"Don't worry, I'm not in that bad of a mood today, so I won't hurt you." He replied as he put his Mugen away.
"R-really? You're not lying to me are you?" He moved his arms from his face. "I see how it is, you're going to try and harm me, but you'll just end up saying that you lied just for revenge. Nice try there Yuu, but you'll have to do better than that."
Kanda just walked off to one of the rooms.
"Where do you think he's going Allen?" Lavi whispered.
"Beats me." Allen shrugged.
At the room, Kanda knocked on the door and open it. "Hey, is Komui in there? Can you tell him for me that I saw Lavi trying to hit on Lenalee when she wasn't looking?" Kanda yelled out from the other side of the door. Lavi and Allen turned white when he heard it. "Nothing bad happened to her but it almost did. I tried preventing him from doing that but she already knocked some sense into him. Didn't stop him from trying again though..." He walked off and started muttering a countdown of some sorts. "3...2...1..."
"Oh Lavi, WHERE THE HELL ARE YOU!?"
"I think you better start running." Allen stated.
"YA THINK?" Lavi panicked and tried to get a head start, but it was too late.
Komui bursts out through the doors and starts running after Lavi, who screams and runs off somewhere to hide, where Komui wasn't too far behind from him.
"Wow Kanda, I never knew you would actually keep your word, especially to Lavi." Allen turned to Kanda and said.
"Ah shut up Moyashi, you should know that a true swordsman never lies."
"Oh really?"
"Yes. Really."
"Heh heh, of course I know that. Why would I lie?"
"Yeah, why would you...?"
Just then, while all of this was going on, Lenalee came back from the library with a book in her hands. "Hey guys, have you seen Lavi anywhere? I have this weird book that I was suppose to give to him."
"Oh, he's just getting chased by Komui for the moment..." Allen replied.
"Really now? What's it for this time?" She asked, starting to get annoyed.
"I don't think you'll want to know Lenalee." Allen sheepishly giggled.
AN: And in the end, Lavi stopped lying to people. Karma's a bitch sometimes...
