TWP: Alright, eight chapter here we go!"

Disclaimer: I don't own the -Man characters. My only possession is Ava Krory.

Three days had passed and Ava had moved back to her own room ready to take up her duties as an Exorcist again. She inspected the wound on her back from that time her wing got ripped off in her body-sized mirror and saw that it had almost finally healed. She smiled to herself.

'Seems like it won't become a scar.' That was a very good thing. She was also lucky that her tattoo hadn't been deformed, though she didn't know how it got away unscathed.

"Heeeey, Ava what's -!" Lavi didn't manage to finish his sentence. Ava screamed and threw her mirror at him. It was a clean hit and he flew out. She slammed the door and hurriedly clothed her upper body.

"T-totally worth it…" Lavi grinned from outside, although the mirror had shattered the moment he and it had landed on the floor and showered him in sharp pieces. It stung a lot but he decided that the view he had had was worth the pain.

'No pain, no gain.' The door slammed open and Ava stormed out, grabbed his collar and hoisted him up.

"What the fuck do you think you're doing, storming into a lady's room without knocking?" She shouted while she shook him back and forth.

"I-It would h-have been a lot e-easier to answer i-if you could stop s-shaking me!" He grabbed her arms and she stopped. He shook his head to clear it before he grinned at her. "Well, I was only wondering what you were doing-"

"And so you had to go into my room without knocking?" He laughed.

"Sorry, I forgot." She shook her head with a sigh. Lavi had a photographic memory. He didn't forget, ever, she knew that.

"Why am I surrounded by idiots?" She said dramatically and he scowled. "Hey! I'm not an idiot." He muttered and she stared at the remains of her mirror.

"You owe me a mirror." She stated simply staring at him and he gaped at her in disbelief. "You've gotta be kidding me! You were the one who threw it at me!" He pointed at his face and clothes, his face had a few cuts and so did his hands while his clothes were a bit torn up here and there.

"If you had knocked I wouldn't have fucking thrown it!" She argued back and the two were locked in a glaring contest. Neither of them backed down until Johnny came around the corner.

"Ava, the Chief wants to inspect your wound and-"The two turned their eyes on him and he froze before he backtracked. "Yeah I'll just tell him I told you to meet up with him." And he was gone again. Ava sighed and grabbed Lavis arm before she dragged him in and made him sit on her bed. She inspected the cuts on his face closely making him a bit uncomfortable before she inspected his hands. She opened her closest and took out bandages, cotton balls, rubbing alcohol, the essentials needed to disinfect and protect injuries before she began to fix him up.

"T-thanks." He stammered and she nodded, concentrated on finishing as soon as possible so she could report in to Komui. Once she had patched him up she stood up and dusted off her pants before walking to the door, holding it open for him. Once out she locked it and began walking to Komui's office.

"Didn't know you were so eager to get your Innocence checked by Komui." Lavi smirked and she froze as dread washed over her. The horrors of having ones Innocence being repaired or healed by Komui was traumatizing, especially if one was a Parasite type. She turned to glare at him but he was already running down the corridor, laughing like there was no tomorrow.

"Sorry, can't let ya beat me up! I've got a mission, you see!" And then he was gone. Ava twitched angrily before her golem suddenly gave her a message.

"Ava Krory, we need you now!" Komui's voice yelled through it and she furrowed her brows in worry. This couldn't simply be because of her wound. She hurried up the stairs and into his office where a lot of the Science Dept. where residing with phones.

"What's going on, Komui?" She asked as she navigated through the mass. He looked up from his papers and the look he gave her told her that this was, indeed, a serious matter.

"Are you able to activate your Innocence without problems?" He asked. Her Innocence activated and her wings sprouted out from her back.

"Affirmative, sir." She said with a nod before deactivating it. "Then you are to leave for Barcelona immediately. General Tiedoll and his unit are close by and a horde of Akuma is on its way there now. The information given to us tells us that we've got four days before they arrive, maybe less. You think you can get there by then?" She nodded immediately, feeling worried for Daisya's safety.

"Yes sir. That should be no problem."

"Good." He nodded satisfied. "If the situation gets worse, we'll send every Exorcist in the vicinity there. If Allen and Lenalee are forced to help out, you'll leave with them after you've eradicated the Akuma. You will then join the mission in guarding General Cross. Have I made myself clear?"

"Crystal sir." She was a bit disappointed that she couldn't stay with General Tiedolls unit though.

"Dismissed." He said and began yelling orders. She ran out of the office, back to her room and grabbed her luggage, ran up the entire staircase before she reached the roof. There she ran out and at the edge and jumped, gathering speed as she fell before activating her Innocence again and taking off into sunset.

Below on the ground, Lavi and Bookman had noticed her departure and watched as she disappeared into the horizon.

"Hey gramps?" Lavi called as his master grunted. "Don't you think she sometimes look like what humans describes as an angel?" The old man looked at him with one raised eyebrow before he thought about the question.

"That may be. I've heard from the Supervisor that General Yeegar named her Innocence for Angel when he found her. I believe she's tried hard to live up to that name as an Exorcist, but keep in mind Lavi, that her Innocence may not be important for our mission. Keep your mind on the right track." Lavi rolled his eyes but nodded.

"Yeah, yeah, old panda."

Whack

"OW!"

Two days had passed and Ava was now resting at an inn, completely exhausted. Not having deactivated her Innocence for almost two whole days had been straining on her body and mind.

'Too tired. But I gotta get to Barcelona fast. I'm almost there; I don't have time to rest.' She thought to herself but it was the cruel truth that a human body had its limits and she had reached hers. She would be useless in both battle and trying to reach Barcelona if she didn't rest. She would just have to relax and then give it her all when she woke up.

'Daisya… I hope you're alright.' She thought. She had tried to see if she could contact him and his squad through the golems but she had no such luck, which made her think that they were either close to Barcelona or in Barcelona and hopefully, they were alive.

'He is alive! He's alive and well. He can take care of himself and he's also got Kanda and Marie with him. Surely they have caught up to General Tiedoll now too!' And with that last thought she fell asleep and dreamt only of the good times in the Order and of the good times with Daisya.

She sped through the sky, leaving a trail of white feathers after her that immediately turned to green particles that were absorbed by her body again. She paid it no heed though. It had been like this since the battle with the Noah that she didn't remember anything off. But right now that was the last thing on her mind. She could see Barcelona and in the dark night she could see the purple lights created by the bullets the Akuma shot. Suddenly she could see a large amount of them explode in a half circle and she smiled in relief. Daisya as alive! It was his trademark attack pattern.

"Well, can't let them have all the fun!" She grinned to herself and kicked her speed up a notch. She closed in on a group of Akuma that were aiming for a group of wounded Finders. Her arms glowed green as she flew straight through them, leaving them with a few seconds to realize that they were destroyed before they exploded.

"Look! It's an angel!"

"Angel, angel!" The Finders chanted and she waved at them before her golem suddenly transmitted a voice.

"Did I just see the shadow of an angel pass by the moon?" She laughed happily and replied coyly. It felt good hearing his voice again, to know he was safe.

"Maybe you did."

"Would you please keep your lovey-dovey stuff until after we've finished dealing with these Akuma?" Kanda's annoyed voice could be heard and she laughed again as Daisya told him to keep his jealous mouth shut.

"I'm not jealous!" The swordsman retorted stubbornly and Daisya laughed out loud.

"Just focus on destroying the Akuma." Maries voice echoed and there was several large explosions down the streets.

"Yeah, yeah. Whatever." Daisya replied and the link was cut. The battle raged on for several hours and Ava felt herself tire. Her back hurt and was stiff from overuse of her wings. She had never been fighting for so long before and felt the need to land. But where was it safe to land? Just then an Akuma tried to shoot her from behind but she dodged it easily and cut it down.

"That was a bit too close, Ava." She heard Daisya's voice through Cam.

"You're watchin' me?" She replied incredulously. Surely he had enough trouble by himself since the three on the ground had been scattered some time ago.

"Hard not to, you're a giant black spot in the air." Kanda butt into their conversation.

"A beautiful giant black spot." Daisya corrected him and she giggled with a blush.

"To think you two can still joke around in the situation we're in." She shook her head as Daisya laughed and Kanda snorted. "Any safe place to land?" She asked as she scanned the streets but it was hard to be sure what was safe.

"My place!" Daisya immediately replied. "Without any perverts?" She clarified her question and she could swear she heard him pout.

"Hey!"

"Marie's location. 5 kilometers west of the tower. We'll meet up there." Kanda told her.

"Roger that."

"See you la… ba…"

"Daisya?" She frowned in worry but he reassured her that it was only his golem that was acting up. He would meet up with them at Marie's location. She descended down to the streets and landed, retracting her wings as she kept an eye out for Marie. But still, she felt that something was wrong. She had a really bad feeling about this place. She just hoped that it was only her imagination and that when morning came; they would all be safe and sound.

TWP: There ya go. Eight chapters are over and done with. God, my neck hurts… Oh well, totally worth it! Sorry for the short chapter though. Once I get a few reviews I'll update again, thank you in advance.
