It didn't take long for the tea soaked males to calm down. Well Kanda took a little longer, but he did calm himself. Daisya thanked Allen for saving his life, although it was a bit exaggerated. "It's almost time for class." She muttered aloud. Turning to give her thanks to Tyki and say goodbye to him and his cousins, she turned and walked with Daisya to their first class.
"Allen whether or not you realize it, you just saved my life." Daisya said happily. Allen looked confused so he explained "If you hadn't been there they, mostly Kanda, would have strangled me for spilling that tea on them." "Well it was an accident, so they shouldn't be that angry with you. It's not fair to you." She said. Daisya nodded happy that she sided with him.
Once again the class passed by quickly and Allen was sitting out in gym again. It was a stretching day for the class and everyone broke up in groups. Allen was by herself, changed in shorts and long sleeves, and watched the rest of the class until the form of Socalo came into her vision. "Don't tell me that you're not allowed to stretch either?" he asked in a demanding voice.
Allen shrugged "I think I should be able to." She said getting up to walk towards the other students. Instead of asking to join a group she stretched by herself. Using what she could remember from her gymnastic days to show off her flexibility.
Breathing deeply a few times to clear her mind, she took an even deeper breath and slowly bent backwards into a back bend. Not realizing that the students and the teacher were watching her as she flipped over back into a standing position. Eyes closed she slowly slid into a straddle, her hips flat on the ground. Then pushing her body forward, she bent her legs and curved her back to get her head and toes to touch.
While she was still in her zone, she stood up and showed off even more flexibility. She picked up her right leg from behind herself and managed to do a scorpion into a back arrow. Then repeated the same on the left leg. When she was done she went back to sit on the bleachers. Not caring that she was being watched the entire time she sighed.
Slowly the students went back to doing their own stretches. Many were amazed by her abilities and some were slightly jealous. Those who were amazed was her friend Lou Fa, Link, Lavi and even Kanda slightly. Those who were jealous were Lenalee and her friends. Lenalee glared at Allen from across the gym, but Allen never looked her way.
Lou Fa went to sit down next to Allen and compliment her on her flexibility when Lou Fa was hit in the face by an exercise ball thrown by the twins Jasdero and Devitt. With them and the more immature students laughing, Allen checked to make sure her glasses weren't broken and if she was okay.
"Are you okay Lou Fa?" she asked softly as Socalo came to check on her. "Rubbing her bruised and red nose she nodded saying that she would be okay. Allen went to grab the ball that had smashed into her friend's face, spotting the snickering twins a few feet away, threw the ball up and preceded to kick it, which smacked them both in the face.
Watching them fall to floor made everyone in the class start laughing, even Kanda was smirking in amusement from the scene. "Thank you Allen." Lou Fa said gratefully, Allen nodding to show she acknowledged it.
"I'd write you up if they didn't deserve it." Socalo said chuckling himself. The students that were closer nodded in agreement. The twins were also causing problems and picking on other people. It didn't matter to Allen at the time. However it may soon in the future.
As Allen exited the locker room with the other girls she saw Lavi and Kanda standing against the wall. "Allen!" Lavi waved her over as she said goodbye to Lou Fa. "That was hilarious how you managed to hit the twins like that." Lavi praised. Kanda only grunted in approval as they walked. Allen shrugged in an attempt to seem embarrassed, "I didn't expect it to hit both of them." Of course to the trained eye, that was a lie.
Lavi seemed to believe but Kanda was a little more skeptic but managed not to show it on his face. "So Allen, is your aunt bringing your lunch again?" Lavi asked excitedly. Allen shrugged "I think her restaurant was busy today so she's going to send someone to bring it." She said thoughtfully.
Allen and Kanda froze for a second and she moved to side just in time to dodge a paint ball aimed at her back. Looking behind her she saw Jasdero and Devitt with toy guns in hand. "I thought weapons weren't allowed in school." Allen said to Lavi and Kanda as the hall made room for the fight that was about to take place.
"They aren't except for a few exceptions, like my Mugen, and those clowns." Kanda answered with a hard look towards the twins. They only had wide grins to return as they fired more rounds in Allen's direction. She dodged all of them without fail. Impressing those in the hallway, including Kanda slightly, and angering the twins.
"Why won't you stay still and let us shoot you!" Devitt shouted. "Why would I let you?" Allen countered in a bored tone. She was bored but she didn't feel like explain the paint and bruises to her uncle or Anita later on. That made the twins even angrier and they reloaded and began firing again in rapid succession once more.
Allen sighed as she released her backpack from her possession and dodged the bullets once more but was formulating an attack as well. Realizing that the bell would ring soon she quickly made her way towards the twins. Using her knowledge of disarming an opponent (courtesy of Cross) she managed to make them release the guns.
"You're both so annoying" she whispered in a dark voice. She twisted their arms and flipped them away from her. Knowing they weren't going to get back up she walked away, grabbed her belongings and continued through the hallway to retrieve her lunch.
In the main office Mahoja was waiting for her with a bag of dango for Allen along with a rather large bag of food that Anita had made for her lunch. "Hey Allen, it's been a while hasn't it?" Mahoja said with a smile as she handed Allen her lunch. Allen stared at her in wonder as she took her lunch in hand. "Mahoja I didn't know you were back from China so early." Mahoja laughed sheepishly "I got a break and decided to visit Anita, you and Cross. I figured since I haven't seen you in so long I would help out Anita by bringing your lunch and saying hi."
She swept Allen into a strong hug that Allen slowly returned. Mahoja was a longtime friend of Anita's and she had been deployed to China five years ago. (A/N: Yes I'm making Mahoja a military woman. Let's admit she could pull it off.) They walked outside the office towards the front doors and Allen asked "How long are you staying?" Mahoja thought for a moment "I'm not sure but the minimum I get for now is a week, I was really hoping for longer so I could spend time with the three of you."
Allen nodded in understanding; she had missed Mahoja dearly as she had taught her self-defense and offense while she was training for the military. 'Maybe we can spar before she has to leave again.' Allen thought to herself as they walked down the steps so Mahoja could leave. "Allen there you are!" Lavi called from the bottom of the steps. He and Kanda were both there waiting for her it seems.
"Allen who are they?" Mahoja asked in a protective tone. Allen sighed "Mahoja this is Lavi and Kanda, I have classes with them. Guys this is Mahoja she's a friend of the family, and is on temporary leave at this current time." Allen said introducing both parties.
"Hey we just wanted to see if Allen wanted to eat with us on the roof." Lavi said trying to be polite. He became slightly worried when he heard that the woman standing, no towering over Allen with large muscles was in the military. "I don't see why not, will I see you at the house later?" Allen asked Mahoja who was inspecting the two males.
"Yes, I'll see you after school Allen." Mahoja replied with a smile and ruffled her hair slightly. She continued down the steps towards the car that was waiting for her. "Good bye Mahoja." Allen waved as she got into the car and it drove away.
Lavi let go of a breath he didn't know he was holding. And excited turned his attention to Allen. "So Allen, how did you do that earlier?" he asked as they made their way to the cafeteria. Kanda ignored their conversation or at least. He was curious about how someone as small as the Moyashi could pull off a move like that.
A/N: Yeah this was kind of late but I still did it. Unfortunately I have to put this story on hiatus cause my schoolwork is killing me however I should be back by Christmas or New Years with more chapters. However it would be greatly appreciated if all of you who so kindly followed and favored my story would give ideas. I'm always happy to receive ideas from readers I know there are good ones out there. So please review.
