AN: Another chapter. 'Nuff said. (O^_^)O

DISCLAIMER: I DO NOT OWN -MAN


"Kanda... I need you to do something for me, can you it?" Daisya whispered to me.

"What?" I replied, not taking my eyes off the people in front of me. As I took a closer look at them. The smaller one had a scar with in the shape go a pentagram above his left eye and flicks of what seemed silver hair in the dark light. The neck of his shirt seemed to be covering his mouth so only his eyes were revealed. Looked about 10 though.

My eyes then flicked over to the taller one. By appearance, he seemed about 13 or 14. Dressed in the same attire but his face had no scars or flaws and the flicks of hair that had escaped his hat were brown, not silver.

I was brought back by the sound of Daisya's voice.

"On the count of three, I want you to run as fast as you can to Tiedolls room and tell him what's going on. Got that?" I nodded.

"Ok, three... Two... One, Go!" With that I picked myself up and sprinted to the fifth door on the corridor and ran in.

Noticing Tiedoll wasn't up yet, I jumped on his bed and shook him.

"Tiedoll! We've got trouble! Wake up!" Noticing my shaking and shouting had no effect in waking him up. I got up and opened the curtains only to see smashed broken glass. I look down towards the floor. Shards of glass where scattered at my feet. In a rush of adrenaline, I hadn't noticed the cuts the shards had made on the soles of my feet.

Looking back over at Tiedoll, I noticed something was different about him... Something dead wrong. Cautiously walking over I pulled back the thick sheet that covered him.

My eyes widened as I felt the urge to vomit. There lay Tiedoll with a gaping hole through his chest right above his heart. No longer resisting the urge, the soba I had eaten earlier had made its way onto the floor beside me.

Hearing the sounds of muffled fighting, I said my goodbyes to Tiedoll, covered him back up and headed to Marie's room.

Just when I was about to reach Marie's room, the door swung open.

Marie stood there in his pyjamas and gun in hand.

"Kanda, what are you doing here? Get back into your room. This is a dangerous situation..." I looked up at him, my eyes brimming with tears. I tried to muffle my sobs but nothing could beat Marie's hearing. "What's wrong? You're crying Kanda, I can hear you... Where's Tiedoll, Kanda..?"

Bursting out into tears I said "He's dead Marie! They killed him! But why? Why us? What did we do?-"

"Shhh Kanda, don't worry. I need you to call the police for me, here take my phone." Marie passed his phone to me as he undid the safety trigger on the gun.

"O-ok, just make sure they don't get away with what they done!" I shouted as my sadness was replaced with burning anger.

"Shit! N-no" A familiar voice was heard along with coughing from down the hall.

'THUMP'

"Daisya!" Marie yelled as he ran off towards the sound.

Daisya... No, you can't be. Quickly I dialled the police and told them all our details. I put the phone down and headed to my room.

'BANG BANG BANG... BANG'

Gun shots?! Marie must of got them! Sensing the silence, I made my way out of my room towards the area of the crime. Turning the corner, I see the smaller of the two taking a katana out of Marie's chest.

Marie... Is dead? W-where is Daisya? What am I going to do? Am I going to die as well?

The taller of the two stepped out from behind me with Daisya's battered and bruised body.

"Well... What do we have here? An extra target? Al, was he on our list?" The taller spoke.

"N-no, he's not." The smaller now known as Al.

I held Mugen tighter and I spun around to face the taller one.

The taller one then gasped as his eyes widened only for a second. They suddenly narrowed making me back away.

"Yuu..." He said.

"Don't call me by that!... How do-" I was cut off

"- don't suppose we kill him, Al?" So it wasn't my name. "Well I don't care, I'm killing him!" He shouted as he drew a blade from his jacket.

My reactions kicked in as I drew Mugen to block his attack.

"Stop it! He's not on the list! We'll be in trouble if we do!" The smaller shouted.

"No, he's going to die! Like the rest of them!-"

The sound of sirens flooded my ears.

"Look now the police are here, it's your fault. Come on, lets go!" The smaller shouted at the other.

"Fine" he hissed as he put away his blade and made a jump out the window followed by the smaller.

I sheathed Mugen. Not long after the police came barging in and brought me back to the station.'


I remember everything now. The scar, on the smaller one, Al. And the other taller one, the one that tried to kill me. I remember the promise I made to Tiedoll to someday repay him for Mugen.

Not long after the murder of my family, did I decide how to repay Tiedoll.

The promise was: Get revenge on the ones who murdered you!

"Kanda... I know that a 'sorry' isn't nearly enough. But, it wasn't me that murdered them, it was Alma." Alma?! He... Murdered my family.

The Moyashi snapped me out of my daze.

"I saw you take that katana out of Marie's chest! Don't lie to me! I'm not stupid you know! Al!" I bellowed as I punched him square in the jaw.

With his hand on his cheek, he looked at me with narrowed eyes.

"Don't you dare call me that! That name makes me sick, that's all he used to call me. Every time someone says that it makes me feel disgusting and dirty!" He hissed, looking me in the eyes. "As I said before, it wasn't me who killed your family. Alma did it all, I was in training to become an assassin then. Alma was one of the best so I was assigned to go on a hit with him and learn from him..." He looked away as he continued. "Alma got too carried away, 36 stab wounds to the chest on Marie. Completely destroyed every bone in Daisya's body. I had to take the multiple amount of blades out of Marie's body, he even used his katana. You should know, he attacked you with a small blade hidden in his jacket. Not a katana." So... It was Alma after all, why would Alma do that?

"But, why would Alma do such a thing? I knew Alma. It all started when I was abandoned on the streets. We were like family, we only relied on each other. But one day, it was on my 6th birthday. He suddenly disappeared, I tried searching for him. I gave up 3 hours later, I was starving and lying on the floor in the middle of a busy street. That's when Tiedoll saw me and took me in." I looked at the Moyashi when he hissed as he massaged his already bruising cheek.

"Look Kanda, I tried my best to stop him. No one deserves to die like that... Or even die at all. It just wasn't within my power. He was 4 years older than me. A lot stronger too. Trust me, I want him dead just as much as you." The Moyashi reached out to me with his free hand and stroked my own cheek. "You see this scar" he pointed to the pentagram above his left eye.

I nodded

"Alma did this to me. The Earl told him to put me under strict discipline, so every time I did something wrong, he would carve a point of the pentagram into my face. I only made a few mistakes but he decided to finish it off anyway." My chest tightened at the thought. "But that's not the worst. The main reason I want him dead is that when I had finished my training, he killed my master. Mana.

He said it was to test his strength, but I know there was something more behind that story, I believe that Nea, Mana's brother wanted him dead so he could become the next Millennium Earl. Unfortunately Nea died of an unknown illness and the past Earl still stands as the current." You could see the anger in the Moyashi's eyes. He turned back to me and the look softened. "So what do you say Kanda, wanna join up and beat the living shit out of Alma?" The Moyashi inquired.

"Fuck yeah." Was my immediate response.


AN: In the words of Yuu Kanda 'Fuck yeah.'
