The streets were difficult for Allen to find decent hiding spots in. Most buildings were lit up from neon signs and there weren't very many alleyways for Allen to make use of.
"I didn't think this would be this bad." Allen grumbled to himself and he made a pit stop atop a roof. As he took a look around Allen noticed that their was a theater right next to the building he was currently on. Glancing at the sign at the front of the building Allen noticed that it was the theater that he'd be doing his gig at. Curious about the building's layout, in case he needed some kind of escape route, Allen decided to go check things out. He roof jumped and found a skylight on the theater. Shrugging his shoulders at the unusual feature Allen easily opened it and hopped down into the building. He ended up landing on the stage.
"Why would there be a skylight over the stage? You'd think they wouldn't let natural lighting bother the shows…" Allen muttered as he surveyed his new surroundings. What he saw were the many rows of seating, the stage lights, and what looked like a contraption that covered the skylight from below. Allen made note of the contraption before checking out things backstage. Just as he was weaving through props he picked up on a conversation. It was hard to make out since the speakers were talking in Japanese, so Allen just went to a place to hide. He made note to get a gadget so he could translate what he heard since all he mask could do was translate written things. Just as Allen was thinking about his small bump in the road, someone started speaking English.
"Why is the Earl waiting to kill this boy? Waiting is so boring!" It sounded like the voice belonged to a young girl. A reply was given back in Japanese.
"You don't tell me what to do!" Suddenly there was a loud smack and a body made its way over to Allen's hiding place. The man now in front of Allen had his neck broken and blood was spilling onto the floor.
"Oh great, now we'll have to clean this up. The Earl wouldn't want blood to freak out the boy or tip off the investigator." The girl finally walked into Allen's line of sight. She was frowning and swinging her arms back and forth. She sent a glare over to the man beside her and he ran off. Allen couldn't believe what he was seeing. What was this girl doing? Just as Allen was going to move, his radio went off, the vibrations being easily heard in the quiet theater.
"What?" The girl looked right over to Allen's hiding place.
"Shit!" Allen quickly looked around for a place to run; there was no way he could make it back to the skylight.
"Oh lookie, the Crowned Clown has come for a visit!" The girl started to giggle. Allen went to dash by her, but the girl's lackey came back and stopped him.
"What's a little girl like you doing working for the Noah?" Allen hissed as he tried to wiggle free from the grip the man had on his left arm; the way he was being held kept him from being able to use his claws.
"I don't work for the Noah, I am one of the Noah." The girl stuck out her tongue, "My name is Road."
"What?" Allen gasped.
"That's right. Now you tell me, what are you doing trying to stop us?" Road hummed and from her pocket pulled out what looked like a candle with one end sharpened.
"You kill people!" Allen shouted back at her.
"Only people that are weak-links to the world. We are trying to make things better." Road replied and brought up her candle to Allen's chest.
"No you're not!" Allen finally found the strength to break free and attempted a swipe at Road, but she jumped out of the way in time. Taking a chance Allen made a run for it.
"Let him go. He'll be back." Was all Allen could hear Road say to her lackey before he was gone and out a back entrance. He made a mad dash back to his hotel, praying that Kanda hadn't noticed his disappearance. Once by the window, Allen carefully crawled into the bathroom with as little noise as possible.
"What the hell are you doing in there Moyashi?" Kanda smacked the bathroom door.
"It's Allen! And I-I just had to use the bathroom okay? Jeez! I'll be out in a minute." Allen huffed back. How long had Kanda been waiting outside the bathroom? Allen did his best to be quick when getting out of his Crowned Clown gear and slipping on his pajamas. Everything was shoved in the space under the sink and Allen pulled out his wig. He quickly put his wig in place, using some of it to hide his left eye, seeing as makeup would take too long, and flushed the toilet to trick Kanda and he washed his hands. As soon as Allen opened the bathroom door he was met with a scowling Kanda.
"I got up for some water and your bird starts going nuts. Seeing you weren't in bed and it didn't look like you even slept in it, I thought something happened." Kanda crossed his arms over his chest.
"Well I was just in the bathroom. And I don't tend to sleep well, so I haven't made it to bed yet." Allen muttered and added a yawn for effect. He then walked over to the bed and pulled up the covers. Unknowing to Allen, Kanda walked over to his left side.
"Why do you have your hair in your face?" Caught off guard thanks to Kanda being in his blind spot, Allen jumped and squealed. Kanda gave Allen a curious stare.
"Y-You don't just walk up to people like that! G-Good night Bakanda!" Allen pushed Kanda away and crawled into bed, pulling the covers up over his head.
"Tsk, weirdo." Kanda huffed and went back to his bed. He figured he'd just ask the stupid rabbit about Allen's lack of attention on his left in the morning.
