Emotionless Red

Chapter 17

Kanda's POV:

'Hmm...this boy doesn't seem right. There is something off about him but I can't seem to figure it out. Just what are you hiding boy?' I narrowed my eyes at him as Noise stood next to me. Tiedol may be annoying general and all but he should have notice there was something off about him.

We arrived on the shore of Japan, Edo. We had gotten information that Cross's group was on their way here. So, maybe that means we- The ground began to shake and loud groaning noises could be heard from a far.

Red's POV:

We looked in the direction of the fighting, my eyes widened slightly at the giant akuma but I could quietly hear Road giggling. She had told me late last night that she had to start the download of the White Ark to the Black Ark. She returned before the Exorcists awoke, now in Edo, our home we can finally see our family and after all I have been away for a week roughly.

"Sir?" I said facing the fight, ready to run to it. He nodded and we, Kanda, Nosie and I ran to the fight. Kanda leaving to go save Lavi from a giant akuma, I activated Crown Clown and head for another giant akuma, killing it as I look at the middle building to see the Earl, Twins, Tyki and Skin standing on the roof. I felt my chest warm up at the thought of being with my family. 'What is this feeling?'

I wasn't paying attention to the battle, so I was then hit in to a building; the other exorcists were standing on. One of them ran over to me, a red head, Lavi? "Hey....are yo-Wait, who are you?"

"I'm fine and Red" With that I leaped off the roof to destroy more akuma, I felt a shift in the air as the Earl gathered dark matter into his gloved hand. My eyes widen slightly as I wrapped Crown Clown around my form hoping to lessen the attack on me.

I felt the dark matter on my cloak, weakening it as well as me. After the blast I got up from the ground, Road in my arms, sheltered from the blast. My legs felt a little shaky when standing on them, I looked around the now flattened town to see a green crystal near Lavi. 'The Earl would be intrigued by this; I have to know if she is the heart and if she is ...kill her.'

My mind started to act on its own, I ran towards the crystalized Lenalee. Not noticing the other Noah going for it, hoping to please the Earl. I reached it, I ran my hand on the crystal as Lenalee shouted to be let out, which she was when the crystal disappeared and she fell to the ground. I shook my head snapping out of my dazed state. 'No, I have to pretend to be an exorcist...'

I felt like someone was lurking over me, a shiver going down my spine as I slowly turned around only to come face to stomach to the Earl. I stumbled backwards nearly falling over Lenalee's limp passed out body; I bowed the slightest to the Earl out of instinct. "Good evening Earl."

"Ah, haven't seen you in a while, Red..." He chuckled but I could tell he was looking at the passed out girl, I stood in front of her distracting him. "I know you want her Earl but you can't have her. She maybe the heart but I doubt it...'

I pulled my sword of exorcism from my left arm, pointing at the Earl. I had a fake smile on my face that the Earl could see through. "Let's put on a show, Earl."

The Earl's grin widen as he pulled out his own broad sword, I swung my sword at the Earl, who easily dodged it and attacked me. I jumped out of the way, it cutting a couple strings of my red hair. I grabbed Road from under my cloak and put here on my shoulder, making sure she does see what's going on. I heard her giggle as I was thrown back a couple of steps. I growled as I swung at the Earl knocking his sword out of his hand from a strong blow.

I pointed my sword at the Earl, a sinister smile on my face. "Earl, have good think about what you should be doing..." With that I put down my sword and walked over to Lenalee, The Earl ran over to Tyki and Skin who were fighting some exorcist and left through one of Road's doors. I chuckled as I picked up Lenalee's limp body and carried her over to Lavi, who almost hit me with his hammer.

"Is she alright?" I asked Lavi, who looked at me rubbing his chin. He nodded his head narrowing his eyes at me. "Umm....Who are you....your voice sound familiar..."

My eyes widen the slightest as I looked at him. 'Crap, does he know I'm the enemy? No, he couldn't just stay calm...' I smiled as I raised my right arm for a hand shake, I'll have to have to speak with a higher voice. "Hello, Mr eye-patch, I'm Red."

"Wait are you tha-" Lavi was cut off by Kanda yelling and flying towards me with his sword. "DIE YOU MON-MOYASHI!" He said as he came into contacted with my left arm. I growled as I pushed Kanda's sword away from my arm.

"Stupid Kanda!" My voice cracked the slightest when I shouted at him.

After yelling, trying to kill each other we relocated under a bridge, my eye twitching as I tried to calm down by stroking Road's head as gentle as I could at the moment, which wasn't much. She whined as she looked up at me with her black button eyes, wondering what would make me angry but realized it was Lenalee and Kanda. They were the ones to almost kill him, bustards.

"Child are you going to deactivated your innocence?" I looked at Tiedol and nodded. I deactivated it and what greeted my ears were many shouts. "IT'S THE RED HEAD KID FROM THE TRAIN!"

I narrowed my eyes and looked Lavi and Kory, a crocked smile spreading across my face. "If you value your lives, you WILL not call me that..." A dark aura surrounded me as I smiled at them, Lavi and Kory paling and thinking the same thing. 'Just like Kanda'

"Red be nice to the poor people. You don't want me to be mad do you?" Road's voice echoed around the small area alerting the others, I looked down at Road a small smile spread across my face. "No, I do not want you mad, Sis."

Everyone looked at me except Tiedol, who already knew about Road. "Umm...Can everyone hear the little girl's voice?"

They all nodded their heads and I chuckled, drawing their eyes over to me. "Everyone this is my little sister, Road." They all looked at like I was insane, Road decide to talk and then their faces took one of shock. "Hello~"

Road laughed at the faces but stopped when a star open beneath Lenalee. "Found you, Lero." She fell through it Kanda, Kory, Lavi, Chaoji, Road and I all tried to grabbed Lenalee, all falling through the Ark gate.
