Drabble #9 The white-haired ghost

Lavi groaned, Kanda was too strict on missions. He had thought he had been bad during their dessert but in reality it was much, much worse. How had Allen survived his first mission with this demon?

"Quit complaining. Even that beansprout was better than you." Kanda said causing Lavi to gasp.

"How you wound me~ Kanda." Lavi shouted dramatically, hand on his heart. "Betraying me for Allen. How could you?"

"Shut it." Kanda snapped, irritated.

"Fine," Lavi huffed in disappointment.

If only Lenalee was here, she would've stopped Kanda from being so harsh. It would've been entertaining too, and for that matter, Allen might as well have come too. Allen and Kanda feuding was just the best. Especially because it was always so surprising to see the polite ghost to… well, not be polite. If only they were here… if only.

Lavi pictured Lenalee and Allen on their mission. His mind gave him a picture of Allen and Lenalee laughing and joking around. The air besides them was sparkling and the sun was looking down upon them. Lavi suddenly felt depressed. Why was his mind so treacherous?

"Hey." Kanda muttered to Lavi. "Was beansprout's mission here too?"

Lavi glanced at him confused, "no." He found Kanda looking at someone in the street. He followed where his eyes pointed to and his eyes widened in surprise.

"Yo! Allen!" He yelled loudly. Several villagers looked at him with disgust before continuing to walk but the person he had shouted out to ignored him. "All-"

"Quiet down, rabbit." His partner hissed. "If he didn't hear you the first time, then he won't hear you the second time."

Lavi frowned, you never knew until you tried. Even so he followed Kanda who was pushing his way through the crowd of people to get to the white haired ghost they knew. Lavi's frowned deepened when he thought about how impossible it was for Allen to be here when he was supposed to be with Lenalee somewhere far away from where they were. So how come there was a ghost that had white hair as well? And if Lavi thought about it, the chances of even finding a ghost was unlikely.

It was even more unlikely for there to be a ghost that looked like Allen and not be Allen. But then again fate was a funny thing.

"Oi. Beansprout. What in the fucking hell are you-" Kanda paused midsentence when the ghost turned around. "You're not fucking beansprout."

Lavi tried to contain a laugh, but in the end, failed. It wasn't his fault that the ghost's reaction to being called beansprout was hilarious. Even after his Bookman training, a part of him, the real him, not his persona 'Lavi', felt the urge to smile. At that Lavi frowned, he was just an observer, there to write, nothing more nothing less, he didn't have any right to smile. Regardless of this thought, the smile on his face widened to the point where his skin hurt but he didn't stop. He had to keep up with his persona of 'Lavi'.

"Listen, you obviously have the wrong person, so get the hell out of my way. I gotta meet with someone." The ghost stated, not wanting to waste it's time on a couple of people. "In plus, who the hell do you know is a ghost?"

"A friend of ours. He also has white hair like you." Lavi replied. "I'm Lavi, that's Yuu."

"Call me Kanda." Kanda commanded with a scowl in Lavi's direction.

The ghost nodded before turning around. "Well, can't say it's a pleasure 'cause it's not, but I'm Brekkar."

That being said Brekkar started walking in the other direction with a lazy wave. Lavi's eyes narrowed as they took in his appearance.

His shoes seemed to be falling apart with the sole becoming a separate being and his pants were dirty to the point where Lavi couldn't tell what color his pants, though that might have been because he was translucent. There were several holes in the jeans and the bottom was ripped causing the string to start to unravel. His shirt was just like everything else, dirty and worn. It seemed to be the dull color gray. It might have been light blue once upon a time but for right now, it was gray.

"Well, let's keep going Yu… Yuu?"

Kanda had already left him. Lavi thought back to the imaginary mission of Allen and Lenalee and wailed, "They don't love me anymore!"

The duo completed their mission the next day and went off without a second thought. Had they stayed a day longer they would've heard the town gossip; the ghost who had lived there for several centuries had disappeared and no one knew where.

They might had seen the Lord of Time float down with a sinister snicker that sealed the fate of a poor, unfortunately soul that had not yet passed on. They might had seen the soul transform into some otherworldly creature with a sharp scream that pierced the silence.

They might had even heard the plead for help that had echoed against the old town's streets and alleyways that were covered in the fog that had been slowly been creeping its way further and further into the village each dark, gloomy night with the moon hiding beneath a stray cloud.

But the duo did not.
