I had to correct some facts in this story, so if you wonder why I updated this chapter again.
~ O ~
In the morning, everyone in the village were in the cemetery, burying 30 bodies of mothers, fathers, children, husbands and wives.
Everyone crying after their loved ones. Cursing how cruel god could be to them.
Something, dark… had fallen upon the village.
Like a black sheet, covering the whole village. Everyone was heartbroken.
Even if the villagers wasn't related to each other, they knew, and loved each other, they were a big warm family. There were no children's laughter laughed in town, there were no market standing in town square.
Only silence, danced through the village.
"People say they saw a white haired man dancing through the night" a man said.
"People say they heard footsteps in front of their doors, hearing that someone pressed their hands on the doors" another one said.
A woman cried out "My children were half eaten when I woke up".
"The cursed one prays his love to the witch"
Kanda and Komui just stood in silence, looking at the street where people had died. Walking through the street, seeing bloody handprints on the doors.
Komui just looked sad. How cruel can someone be, killing 31 people. (They only buried 30 tho')
The people were all half eaten, it seemed to be leftovers from the monsters.
But why would monsters be here, this village was protected from the monsters.
Well nobody had ever tested it if it was true that the village was protected. But they had never attacked this village. While the villagers often heard how monsters had eaten people in the neighbor cities.
Komui narrowed his eyes turning to Kanda "Do you think Allen was eaten?"
Kandas eyes widened.
"They won't kill him because he has the seal on his face"
That's what Neah said. Wait, people said they had seen a white haired man dance through the village last night. "Was this Allens doing?" Kanda thought making a shocked face.
"Kanda, can you please answer?" Komui said, he seemed worried.
"I don't think he's eaten, well, I don't know, but I have the feeling he isn't" Kanda answered.
"Hmm… ok?" Komui said narrowing his eyes, it seemed like Kanda put a mask on, hiding something.
Komui and Kanda walked in to a house, and when they stepped in, they could smell a disgusting odor.
Komui hid his nose with his hands, trying not to think about the smell.
Kanda again walked like he always had, not being bothered by the smell.
They went upstairs and opened a door. The door cracked when it was pushed to the side.
They stepped in to a child's room. The room was painted light yellow, it had a bed and toys all over the floor. On the bed there was lying a dead child. She couldn't have been more than five years old.
Her legs were gone, and the intestines hung out, covering half of the bed. Blood ran down from the girls eyes , her nose and mouth. Her black hair was messy. She just lied there, looking like a broken doll. Smashed down on her bed, making her blood fly around the room, covering the rooms walls.
Komui covered his mouth, trying to hold back. He wanted to throw up.
Kanda was shocked, was it really Allen who had done this?
(So yea there were 31 people killed, they had to leave one body so they could investigate what had happened. Because the other 30 bodies were mostly gone, and this little girl had some 'meat' left. They decided to leave her there to look closer)
Komui and Kanda rushed out from the house, Komui threw up on the street.
They were definitely not only the Akumas doing, someone helped the Akumas.
A girl skipped to them, her eyes were wide open, but dark circles surrounded them.
She gave them a smile. "How's my sister?" she said.
Komui flinched. The girl looked like she was 12.
Had she seen something?
"Girl, have you seen something, you shouldn't have?" Komui said and kneeled down in front of the girl.
The girl nodded and put her finger against her lips "Shh…your lips are sealed" she said, giving them a smile.
Kanda flinched, 'your'? and kneeled down too and asked "Who said that"
The girls eyes widened "A man with gray skin said so" she said.
Komui looked confused "Gray skin?" he said to himself.
Komui took the girls hand and stood up, she really wasn't sane, watching her sister die.
But she had given them some information.
A 12 year olds word wouldn't be trusted easily, and she wasn't sane, after watching her sister die.
But they had no other clue right now, so they gladly accepted it. A man with gray skin, huh.
Later they found the child's mother and told her that she had seen the murderer, telling her that she should lock all windows at night and make sure the girl got some rest.
Kanda didn't say anything. He was wondering if it really was Allen. Allen had white hair, but his skin wasn't gray. He stopped, gray? Neahs skin was gray.
"We are one and same"
"Only in this room though, otherwise you won't hear him"
Kandas eyes widened "Was it Neah?"
Kanda decided that he should search for Allen. He would probably get more answers from him than any other villager in this village. But, how will he find him?
When they had gotten the villagers to relax, telling them to lock the door at night, and keeping the windows closed.
The villagers nodded and telling themselves that they couldn't leave the market closed forever, otherwise they wouldn't get any money and probably would all starve to death. But today the market would be close, and tomorrow would be greeted with warm arms.
The villagers were too busy that they didn't notice a man standing in front of the forest. His pure white hair was moving with the wind. Closing his eyes, and turning his back against the village, walking slowly in to the dark forest.
"Was this your doing?"he said and looked on his right hand that had a large wound created by a knife.
"Hmph."
The boy sighed "Just don't do it again"
Neah was surprised that Allen wasn't angry at him.
But as the sun went down, the villagers ran in to their homes hiding. The patrol was awake, hiding with guns in their hands, greeting the night as it came upon the village.
A boy skipping on the rooftops, and sat down on the roof to think.
Opening his mouth to sing the song.
All you could hear, was.
"There he is, on the roof" and a large bang, that echoed through the village.
Yes they left one body there so they could investigate better. But they moved her to another place. It wouldn't be nice to have your childs body in your house rotting away, now would it?
Muhaha… but we'll see what happens next.
To be continued.
