Aya first felt devastation sink in. “No…not Ryo…” She mumbled feeling her face fall in despair. Soon her sorrow was replaced with rage and pure hatred. “I’ll fucking kill you.” Burning red eyes glared up at the Noah.
Tyki chuckled and threw his head back in amusement. “Oh, I do hope you keep your word.” Kanda was too busy keeping the normal akuma at bay to stop Aya as she charged forwards at the mystery man.
Chapter Thirteen
Holding the long pole towards the blunt end she crouched down. The fingers on her free hand just barely touching the ground. Her weapon was held close to the back of her arm and the pole almost rested on her back. The sharp curved edge pointing out behind her shined in the moonlight. Aya’s hair fell in front of her eyes but if you looked closely you could see that they were almost glowing red.
Tyki watched in amusement as the girl practically disappeared from his sight. If he were any less than what he was he would never have seen her coming. Yet, as a Noah he had powers way beyond the young exorcist. Jumping out of the way as her scythe slashed the air he once stood. Her body twirled, her weapon following after, before it was tucked against her back again.
The handsome Noah’s feet just barely touched the ground again as she sent another round of swift attacks on his person. He dodged each of them. Slowly learning the girls fighting style. In one quick movement he came behind her and held the pole firmly at her back. “Fighting with such fury will get you no where.”
He was behind her so he didn’t see the smirk that grew on her face. “Neither is fighting with such cockiness.” She spat back as she tightened her grip and pulled downward. Tyki’s eyes widened as the pole he had a firm grip on seemed to slide between his clenched fist. Sending the blade coming down swiftly onto his fist. Flashing away he reappeared a few feet in front of her. He frowned down at his once pure white glove, now soaking up the blood from his sliced hand.
A sick grin appeared on his face as he all but licked the blood away. “Now, that wasn’t very nice.” He cast a sadistic glance up at the girl. Suddenly thousands of black butterflies appeared around them. “Pretty, no?” The flying bugs shot towards her, finally she gave her full attention to the charging insects. Taking a few clean swipes she managed to knock the first few away.
‘There are hundreds of them!’ She yelled in her mind, she had no idea what they did. But she knew that these were no normal butterflies. One landed on her and she screamed in both pain and fright. ‘It….it bit me!’ Shaking it off she turned heel and ran away from the swarm that followed her.
Kanda was slicing through another Akuma when he heard Aya scream. He glanced up to see her jumping from roof top to roof top. The huge black blob flying after her. Taking a minute to kill off another attacking enemy he then turned and sped off after his partner. ‘Fuck!’ He cursed in his mind.
Tyki watched in amusement as the girl hit off layer upon layer of his Tease. Only to be attacked by another layer, as the battered ones regained control. His eyes caught her companion coming to her ‘rescue’. Suddenly he appeared in front of the running samurai and smiled. “Tsk, tsk.”
Kanda could only spare a glance at the retreating girl before his eyes glared holes into the man before him. Holding his sword he quickly activated it and prepared to fight. Tyki smirked as he felt his body tremble in excitement. ‘The girl might not have been much of a challenge but this boy…’ He licked his lips and side stepped the first series of attacks. ‘This boy will make it worth the time.’
‘Fuck…fuck…fuck…’ Aya’s mind went over possibilities of escape. All ending in her untimely demise. Suddenly Lavi’s cheery smile popped into her mind. Her feet skidded across the roof top as she stopped. “I want to go home.” She said with a small smile on her face. Within seconds her entire body was covered in the flesh eating bugs. “Zetsumei…split…”
Within the black flutter blob a red light glowed. The black blob dispersed as Aya’s hands flipped and twirled the smaller poles. One in each hand and connected by a long white linked chain. At the far end of each miniature pole was that same curved blade protruding from it. Her breath was labored and all one could see of her moving weapons was the blur of the red flying through the air. The Tease dropped to the ground split in half, not even sensing the weapon slicing them.
Lavi’s head was pounding. He could have sworn there was someone using a jackhammer on his brain. He had been trying to sleep all night. Every time he closed his eyes he had the most horrible dreams. “Ayaka…” He mumbled in annoyance. Normally when he couldn’t sleep he’d sneak into Aya’s room and curled around her. She always seemed to bring peace to his hectic mind. He tried thinking about her but that failed horribly. He had only managed to suck her into his nightmares, and he’d prefer her stay out side of the terrible dreams.
Groaning he threw his feet of the bed and stood. If he couldn’t sleep he mind as well get something done with his time. He quickly dressed and set out to his second home, the library.
Lenalee stared at her bother in shock. “What…what do you mean the Finder with Kanda and Aya-chan is dead?” Komui could only look away and think on the matter at hand. The girl walked closer to her brother and grabbed his shoulders. “Where are Kanda and Aya-chan?” She nearly yelled in her panic.
Komui just sighed and shook his head. “They haven’t contacted us since the Finders death.” Lenalee took a deep breath and stepped away from her brother. She couldn’t believe this, why was this happened.
“Oh, morning Lenalee-chan!” The girl whipped around surprised eyes landing on Lavi who yawned and waved at her. She couldn’t help the pitiful look that took over her face. Lavi noticed the look and saw the serious Komui behind her. “What’s going on?” He asked dread working its way into his system.
Lenalee seemed to panic and Komui was debating what to tell the boy. “Oh, nothing…” Lenalee said with a fake smile and a wave of her hand. “Brother is just being brother…”
Lavi looked at the both skeptically. “Why are you lying?” He asked in a quiet voice. “Did something happen to…” His throat nearly closed, cutting off his words. The siblings glanced from each other back to the troubled young male before them. Laughing bitterly he ran his hand through his hair. He hated this. Hated this feeling of even the possibility of Aya not coming home. “I’ll be in the library.” He muttered when his eyes felt wet and his throat tightened.
Lenalee just watched as her friend walked away. “Are you sending reinforcements?”
Komui sighed and scratched his cheek. “Sending another Finder, but other than that we can’t do much until he reports his findings.” The both felt useless, but they had to do things in favor of the Order.
Tyki melded with the wall right as Kanda struck. It seemed the dark Noah was having fun evading the young samurai’s sword. Kanda only growled in frustration as he swung down again and again with his double blades.
“Now, you are suppose to show me a good time, little exorcist.” Tyki taunted from atop the rooftop. Suddenly Kanda attacked and Tyki again dodged, getting bored the Noah decided to up the game. He smirked as he went on the offense and dashed off to attack Kanda. Then he felt something, and with little time to spare he dodged the before the thing slammed down into him. The attacker pounded into the rooftop instead of the enemy. A cloud of dust took over the area and a low disappointed sound was heard within it.
Kanda’s eyes widened as the cloud began to clear. Aya stood in the center of it. Her arms dangling down by her sides. The twin scythes held in either hand. Her clothes were littered with rips and gashes. Blood dripped from her numerous wounds, her body was loose and swaying slightly.
Tyki was pleasantly surprised when he noticed the girl before him. ‘I should have been paying more attention to her, I suppose.’ The male rushed in to attack but Aya merely disappeared from the spot. Only to reappear behind him, swinging her arms down on him, hoping to land a hit. Tyki only jumped back away from the swings, and when he encountered a barrier he easily shifted through it.
Aya took a different approach and mindlessly tore down the obstacles in her way. Kanda watched in slight amazement as Aya chased after the offender. He was trying to read her for any signs of distress but only found a quite capable fighter before his eyes. He’d never known her Innocence had another stage, and he didn’t know she knew how to use it. Quickly he realized something horrible. His eyes landed on Aya’s face. Her normally dull red eyes, which brightened when her Innocence activated, were a deep crimson red. The almost black eyes were lifeless and she wasn’t even looking at her combatant. ‘Is she conscious?’ Kanda thought as his mind ran into a slight panic. ‘If her body ias moving on it’s own, then her mind isn’t registering the danger she is in. She could be seriously injured, or worse, she could be killed.’
A random Finder ran to the town he had been instructed to go to. Apparently there were two exorcist there and they were in need of one of his kind. He, being the closest assistance, was told to go. Thankfully he was only a town over checking on a lead that had been sent to the Order.
It took the Finder about an hour to reach the next town. He slowed as he surveyed the area. It was a wreck, buildings were crumbled and there was debris everywhere. ‘What the hell happened here?’ The nameless Finder though as he snuck through the broken down town. He had to find the exorcist and inform Head Quarters of their current situation. Suddenly he came upon two people, one he recognized as Kanda, and the other was a top hat wearing male. His eyes widened as he took in the scene before him. The dark male, that he didn’t know, was being attacked by Kanda and didn’t seem to be phased by it.
The Finder quickly took out his equipment and phoned the Order.
Reever ran into Komui’s office. “The Finder has found Kanda!” He said through labored breaths, holding up the Golem that the man was on the other line of.
Komui’s eye shot up. “What have you to report?” He asked in his business tone.
The Finder peeked out from behind the building in which he took shelter. “Exorcist Kanda is fighting an odd, dark skinned opponent.” Komui’s eyes widened at the information, who was this other fighter, was it a Noah?
“And the female exorcist that was with Kanda?” He asked in a hushed tone, fearing what he’d hear. The Finder stepped out quietly and glanced around the area, he saw a huge black blob not far from where the two men fought but had no clue what it was.
“I don’t see any sign of her, sir.” He said regretfully.
Komui lowered his head and rubbed his forehead. What did he do? Did he order Kanda to retreat? Would Kanda leave without Aya? Komui doubted it. He was brought out of his thoughts when the Finder spoke again, slightly panicked.
“Wait!” The Finder watched in amazement as a the blob disappeared and a person flashed out of sight. “I can’t believe it.” He said as he watched the girl began to attack, seemingly fearless.
Komui jumped to his feet and slammed his hands on the desk. “What is going on!” The Finder shook his head and apologized for his brief negligence.
“The female you spoke of! I think I’ve found her!”
Komui let out a breath, it felt like he’d just started breathing again. “Is she dead?” He asked in a sober tone, he needed to figure out how to break it to his sister and Lavi.
“No sir! She’s now fighting the enemy! She appeared out of no where!” The Finder watched as the woman began busting walls down like they were made of paper. “She’s bleeding and injured but it’s doesn’t seem to be effecting her battling performance. I can’t tell how badly her wounds are.”
Komui nodded and his face took on a serious look. “I want you to find a way to inform them to retreat and return here as soon as possible. We don’t know much of the Noah clan and we don’t want them to be hurt or killed because they weren’t informed of the basic facts!” The Finder confirmed the order and began to think of ways to inform the exorcist. Komui sat at his desk and held his hands in front of his face. Reever looked at his superior waiting for intrusions. The hat bearing man sighed, “I should have informed her of the Noah.” He mumbled with a shake of his head. “I didn’t believe they’d run into one so soon.” The higher up looked over at Reever and nodded. “Bring me Bookman.” The science department head took off to find the panda look alike.
Kanda was readying himself to chase after the Noah and Aya when something on the ground caught his eye. Spinning, preparing for another attack by the enemy, he found himself surprised. Looking down at the Finder who waved his arms in the air trying to bring attention to himself. Glancing at Aya, Kanda sighed and jumped down to the Finders level. He nodded in agreement when the other man told him of the retreat. Normally, being the stubborn bastard that he was, Kanda would refuse to back down. But he had a partner to think about, and he could tell Aya’s body wasn’t going to be able to keep up with her for much longer. “This is why I like to work alone!” He grumbled but the normally nasty spark behind it was long gone. He glanced up at Aya and took off to her side. He’d get her out of here even if it meant turning tail and running.
Aya knew her body was moving, but she only saw darkness and she felt only pain. It was excruciating pain that seared her skin, making her want to scream out to try to relieve some of the ache. Yet she couldn’t, was she dead? Did those things eat her? She felt the darkness start to fade, into nothingness. The nothingness seemed so forbidding, so…scary. Then she remembered, “Lavi”. She wanted him, she wanted to see him, to be with him. She didn’t want to be in this dark place, he would make the pain go away. Closing her eyes and taking a deep calming breath she sighed contently. “I want to go home.”
Kanda glanced towards the girl as her eyes seemed to focus, her body had stopped it‘s relentless attack. Her voice was coarse and far away. He was still a little bit away and the Noah had noticed her sudden state of immobilization. The sick grin grew on Tyki’s face, he brought his hand back and propelled it forward. It heading directly for Aya’s heart. “It’s been fun.” He chuckled, as Aya’s now clear eyes widened. The scream from her mouth seemed to echo and bounce of the ruined buildings all around the broken town.
