Chapter Four
Two eyelids slowly opened, staring at the unfamiliar ceiling. After a few slow blinks, a head popped into view.
“You’re up!” The young boy piped happily.
“Where…” The body sat up, rubbing its forehead. “Where am I?”
The young boy frowned slightly before his mother hurried into the room. “Oh dear! Are you alright?” At the question she smiled a small smile. “My husband found you in the woods. He brought you back, you’ve been out for two days.” She frowned a little then hurried out of the room, talking about food and water. She pulled her son along telling him that their guest needed some rest.
It took a few moments for everything to process, then a few more for the exorcist to remember important things. As the patient suddenly realized something they stumbled out of bed and rushed through the door. The woman and her husband turned around surprised by the commotion.
“The girl!” They both looked at Allen like he was insane. “There was a girl with me. With red and white hair, she had an injury on her leg.” Allen looked back and forth from the husband to wife. They both looked back at him with sad eyes.
“I only found you out there son.” The older man said gently as he stood and placed a hand on his shoulder. “She might have been caught in the explosion, there have been some odd things happening around this town.”
Allen shook his head in disbelief. “No way…”
:
Lavi panted heavily as he used his hammer as a make shift cane to keep him upright. “Where…were…they…coming from?” He asked as Lenalee collapsed next to him.
Kanda sheathed his sword and leaned up against a tree, seemingly unaffected by the battle they just endured. “We have to look for any clues to where the midget and the rookie are.”
The two exhausted exorcist looked up at their companion in shock, was Kanda actually showing his worry for their comrades? The ponytail wearer fought down a blush at their shocked expressions. “Only I can kill the moyashi, and that stupid rookie needs to learn better stances!” He growled out, causing Lenalee to look at him knowingly.
Lavi only pushed back the slight nagging feeling of the possibility that Kanda liked Aya. As he was silently brooding his eyes caught something. “No…” He muttered, causing his two friends to turn to him, causing them to see what he saw. He took a few heavy steps before looking down at a bloody torn exorcist jacket. He only stared as the other two came to a halt beside him.
Lenalee shifted nervously before stating something none of them really knew how to take. “It’s Allen's…”
:
Allen was held back from running out of the front door by a tiny hand. He looked back at the little boy who pouted up at him. “Where are you going, Allen-kun? You’re hurt! You shouldn’t go out there, the town people say bad things are in the forest.”
“Sorry, I have to go…” Allen knelt in front of the tiny boy and tried to smile. “You see, one of my friends was with me when I got hurt, and she was even more hurt than I was.” The little boys eyes widened. “I have to go and find her, I have to make sure she’s alright. We have a few friends from where we come from, and if I don’t find her, they are all going to be very sad.” The little boy sniffled, nodded and looked down. Smiling softly at the boy Allen stood again, ruffed the boys hair and took off into the dense forest.
He ran as fast as he could, as far as he could, until it was difficult for him to breathe. It was only then that he stopped to take a short break, leaning back against a tall tree he sighed. “Aya-chan, where are you?” As he pushed himself off of the tree he turned to start his search again when his eyes caught something in a bush not far from him. Jumping over a fallen tree he stopped right before said bush. “Shit…” He mumbled as he reached down and plucked the shinny red pole from its hold. “Aya-chan…” He frowned further when he saw that the pole was a shade darker in some areas, ‘blood’.
:
Lavi, Lenalee, and Kanda had decided that it would be best to split up and meet back at the clearing every 30 minutes. None of them liked the idea of leaving the area, without one or both of their comrades. Even if it was just their lifeless bodies.
Lenalee, used her boots to run quickly through the never ending green. She came to an almost screeching halt when she saw something white flash to the left of her. Turning she made her way towards the retreating figure.
Lavi sighed as he stood on the end of his hammer and made it grow. Looking over the forest trying to catch anything in the wide, thick green. He lowered himself and felt the need to bang his head against something hard. ‘It was too soon!’ He growled in his own mind, too soon for her to be out on a mission. He knew he was being unreasonable, yet he couldn’t find himself trying to correct it. Allen was out here bleeding somewhere and there were no traces of Aya anywhere. He felt his heart give a painful clench as he realized that he actually wished she had just ran away. Because the alternative was something he didn’t even want to imagine.
Kanda stopped when he saw movement out of the corner of his eye. He slowly turned and readied himself for whatever was to come. Soon he was plowed into by a white blob. He growled before pushing the offender off of him. He was about to flip out when he recognized Lenalee running towards them.
“Kanda?” He looked down to see Allen looking at him in shock. “Is that really you?” When the boy reached out to touch the samurai Kanda smacked his hand away. Allen smiled and sighed in relief, he wasn’t going crazy.
Lenalee stopped and looked down at the two boys. “Allen?” She asked in a shaky voice. He looked up at her and smiled softly, the girl fell to her knees and hugged him tightly. Crying her eyes out he gently rubbed her back. “I’m so glad you’re okay.”
“I’m glad you all got here…” Allen nodded and looked back at Kanda, a look of complete and utter relief on the white haired boys face. “So, where’s Aya-chan? Is she with Lavi? I found her Innocence.” He held up the red pole, not noticing the stunned silence of his two companions. “I was worried about her…” Finally he looked up at Lenalee, who finally released the boy and sat back on her heels. “What?” Allen asked then dreaded the answer, when neither would look him in the eye.
“Allen-kun,” Lenalee whispered. “We were out searching for you and Aya-chan.” Allen stiffened as his hand tightened on the others Innocence.
The half an hour had passed, the group making their way back to the meeting area to regroup. Lavi noticed the extra person right away and ran over to Allen. Smiling happily he smacked the other on the back. “Good to see you! Don’t worry us like that.” He said with a grin, thought the underlining seriousness was still there. He took a quick look around before he looked back at the three. “Where’s Aya?”
Allen looked away from his red haired friend. Lavi suddenly felt a rush of fury. He grabbed Allen by the collar and heaved him against a tree. Allen gasped as he struggled, his toes barely touching the ground. He looked down into his friends eyes and honestly felt like he deserved such treatment.
Lavi’s normally fully of life eyes were filled with anguish and pain. He was furious and probably lost in the state of anger. Allen gulped and tried to speak the best he could, with Lavi at his throat (literally).
“I don’t know. I woke up in a family’s house not far from here.” He spared a glance at his other friends who were on edge ready to pull Lavi away if he got too out of hand. “The husband said he found me in the forest, he said there was no girl with me.” He looked down ashamed that he couldn’t protect Aya. “I came out looking for her the moment I found out.”
Lavi looked around bewildered for a moment, letting Allen's feet touch the ground. “Two days…it’s been two days…” He muttered and then froze when he saw the object in Allen's hand. With shaky fingers he reached for it and Allen let the pole go when his friends hand held onto it. Lavi looked back up at Allen, his features showing complete distress. “Why couldn’t she have just ran away…” He stated before turning and walking into the dense forest.
After another day of desperate search for the missing girl the small group reluctantly went back to Head Quarters. Lenalee having to convince Lavi and Allen that Aya would head there if she could. Lavi knew it was probably a lie but went anyway. As weeks passed and Aya still had not shown up, Lavi buried himself in Bookman duties. He tried to act his normal cheery, fun loving self, but those who knew him well knew it was all a ruse. Even Kanda would frown (deeper than normal) when Lavi started calling him Kanda and not his normal Yuu-chan.
:
Around the same time - Far away from Head Quarters
Dull red eyes fluttered open and glanced around the room. Within seconds of them opening the girl sat up, groaning in pain. She fell back onto the bed, before grunting and trying to sit up again. This time the door of the room flew open and a man came rushing in.
“Wait, wait…” He put down the book he’d been carrying and went to help the girl up. “You should be more careful.” He muttered as he sat on the edge of the bed once he had her settled. “I’m surprised to see you awake. I should call the doctor.”
The girl looked at him oddly, tilting her head, her long dark red hair falling over her shoulder. The male looked back smiling at her and holding his hand out. “I’m Itou Ryo.” The girl looked at his hand oddly before putting her smaller hand into it. He shook it smiling brighter.
“I’m…” She thought her eyebrows frowning and lip worrying between her teeth. She took a few more moments before her hand tightened around his and looked up at him in complete confusion. “Who am I?”
Ryo’s eyes widened as he looked back at the girl in the bed before him. ‘She doesn’t remember who she is?’ After explaining to her that he needed to call the doctor and make her something to eat Ryo left the room, not giving the girl any answers. He didn’t know what to tell her, it wasn’t like he ever met her before.
It took three days for Ryo to finally think of what to tell the poor girl who had repeatedly asked him who she was. She looked so desperate, like she would give anything just to know something. After he had taken the tray from her dinner back to the kitchen he took a seat on a chair by her bed.
Sighing he looked back at the girl. “I don’t know who you are.” The girl looked panicked but Ryo continued any way. “I found you on a dirt road in the forest by town. You were covered in wounds and bleeding pretty badly. I brought you back here and had the doctor fix you up.” The girl seemed to calm down, slowing digesting all the new information.
She gripped her hands together so tightly her knuckles were an inhumanly white. “How long?” She whispered and Ryo looked out the window by her bed.
“A little over a month and a half.” The girl made a chocking sound as her hands flew to her mouth. “It’s okay. You…you’re going to be fine. You can stay here.” He got up from the chair and took a seat by her in the bed. Ryo gently took her hand and held the trembling appendage in his firm grip. She let her head fall to the mans shoulder as her body shook in fear.
“I don’t know my name…” She said after a few moments of silence. “I don’t…”
Ryo gently ran his free hand down her soft hair, leaving it to rest on her back. “How about Miyu?” He asked as he leaned back and smiled down at her.
Miyu tiled her head and bit her inner cheek. “Miyu…” She whispered, seeing if she liked the sound of it. “Okay…” She smiled a soft smiled and held onto his one hand with her two. “Nice to meet you. I’m…” She frowned. “You have two names.”
Ryo laughed joyfully before nodding and thinking something over. “Okay, then you can be an Itou as well. Itou Miyu will be your name.”
Miyu nodded happy to have a name. “I’m Itou Miyu…”
:
She knew this house. The darkness that surrounded it was familiar in an eerie sort of way. She knew this horrible atmosphere and that fact was probably what frightened her the most. The house looked as if it should have been owned by a happy family. There were toys in the front yard, but they were old and broken. The door looked as if it was at one time painted a dark brown, now it hung off one of its hinges gray and rotted. She gulped as she took a few steps onto the tiny porch and reached for the handle.
“Don’t…” came a voice she wasn’t familiar with. She pulled her hand back but reached for it again. “Don’t…” Growling at the voice she yanked the door open, nearly pulling it from its remaining hinge.
She took a cautious step into the house and wondered briefly why she wasn’t really that scared. It felt odd to her-like she was coming back to a place where she had once felt secure. ’Maybe…’ she bit her lip as she walked further into the dusty hallway. ‘Maybe, this was my home at one point.’ She reasoned as she felt her feet carrying her to another room.
When she arrived at the door she felt a little excited. Behind this door, she felt like something was waiting for her. A reminder of her past, she wanted to throw the door open but something held her back. Something told her to be wary, like her mind didn’t want her to remember this particular thing. She took a step towards the door but stopped when she felt her bare foot step into something wet. Looking down she saw the red puddle the flowed from beneath the door.
She covered her mouth to hold in the scream, but when she looked up her eyes landed on the grinning face of a monster.
Miyu screamed as her eyes shot open. Ryo came running into the room and pulled her into his arms, knocking her out of the nightmarish state. Miyu clung to him, panting, and shaking from the memory of that face.
Ryo gently pet her head shushing soothingly in her ear. “It’s okay, it was just a dream.” A flash of white and a blurry face appeared in her mind before it was pushed aside due to her eyes closing again. Ryo noticed the tension leave her body and carefully laid her back into the bed. He tenderly brushed the hair from her face before tucking her back in and leaving the room. “The nightmares are coming more often…” He said to nobody as he climbed back into bed.
:
Miyu walked through the small town in which she now lived. Ryo had asked her to pick some things up for dinner and she had no problems in doing so. A boy with choppy red hair ran passed her and she quickly did a double take feeling her heart thump loudly in her chest. She stopped herself from running after him and sighed. She had scared a traveler before by grabbing him and demanding to know if he knew her. She didn’t know why, ‘it must be the red hair.’ She thought as she carried the rather heavy basket back towards her home.
It was happening a lot recently, she would see faces, hear voices, feel things but she couldn’t fully remember anything. Yet, there was something that really scared her - her dreams. They weren’t filled with the happy smiling faces and feelings the brief flashes were. Her dreams, they were sinister and she was actually rather terrified to fall asleep every night. There was something there, behind it all and she wasn’t really sure if she wanted to remember.
If her past was full of those scary things maybe she was better off not knowing who she was. But there was a nagging feeling in the back of her mind telling her she was forgetting something. Something important, something that she wanted to remember and return to.
:
She ran into the house this time, up the stairs and towards the door. ‘I have to open it.’ She yelled into her mind. It was odd to her that she could think in her dream, that she seemed to be herself. It only made everything seem more real and scared her even more. Yet she knew she had to open this door. There was something… she wanted something…she missed something so much it made her want to cry. Something told her it was worth dealing with this terrifying experience.
Her hand trembled and gripped the door knob. “Please…” She whimpered. “Give it back.” She flung the door open…
“Miyu…”
She looked around in the darkness, her eyes landing on the back of a woman.
“Miyu!”
She took a few shaky steps towards the figure, “Who…who are you?” The woman turned to answer.
“MIYU!!” Ryo shook the girl lightly, her eyes finally opening. “Oh, thank god. You scared the hell out of me!” He scolded but sighed in relief.
Miyu looked around the room before focusing back on the man beside her. “Sorry…” She said meekly.
:
Allen sat on a train with Lenalee. The two heading off to their assigned mission. The boy stared emotionless out the window. He remembered his encounter with Lavi right before he left. The look of hopelessness in the others eyes covered with that fake happiness made him want to cringe.
Lenalee gently placed her hand on his arm. “It’s not your fault Allen-kun.”
“Yeah, everyone keeps telling me that.” The boy looked to her and smiled. “Yet, I can still feel her blood on my hands.” He looked down at his clothed covered hands. Lenalee placed her hand into his and gently squeezed it. He smiled at her thankfully before staring back out the window.
:
Miyu sat on the wooden log on the edge of the forest. ‘Ryo said he found me in there.’ She thought as she placed her elbow on her knee and her chin fell into her opened hand. She found herself staring into the deep green, her vision fading in and out. Groaning she held her head in her hands.
Ryo came up beside her and gently rubbed her back. “Remembering something?” He had finally got her to talk to him a few days ago. She had told him about the flashes and the dreams. Well the nightmares, and he had decided that he would be there to lend an ear when she needed it. She only groaned and laid her head in her arms that sat on her knees. “Don’t push yourself, Miyu…”
She sniffled as the pain subsided. “I keep seeing a library and some sort of training area.” She turned her head sideways and glanced at Ryo. “I hear someone laughing and another grumbling. I see a young man with pure white hair and a red head who smiles a lot.” She smiled and wanted so badly to remember. “Ryo…”
He looked down at her, letting his hand fall from her back. She looked him in the eye and resisted the urge to cry. “Do you think someone is missing me?”
At first Ryo was shocked and unsure of what to say. Then he ran his hand through his hair and sighed. “Everyone had someone that’s misses them. At least that’s what I believe. Even if that person doesn’t know they‘re being missed.”
She smiled her thanks to him and buried her head back into her arms. “I miss someone…” She mumbled offhandedly. A red headed boy half hidden behind a tower of books peeked out and smiled at her. His face was mostly blurry but she still saw that dazzling smile. “At least I think I do.”

Comment - Okay, okay! I know the whole 'forgetfulness' is totally cliché but but I have a reason! I couldn't really think of any other way to bring up Aya's past! She isn't really the break down and cry/spill her guts type.
:coughLENALEEcough:
So I hope no one hates me for the use of the total cliché moment.
Well, that's it for now...
Hope someone enjoyed that...
