Road's POV:

The red head, Bookman was looking at Red and was trying to figure out why I was acting so normal around us, the Noah. I had the urge just to say that he was family but I knew that would ruin Red's mission and the Earl wouldn't be happy about that.

The ground shook as the remaining of the ark crumbled; only leaving this tower. I giggled as I let go of Red and skipped over to the bookman, whispering in his ear. "What have you figured out Bookman?" The Bookman's eye widen as I skipped over to Tyki, who was having a chat with the exorcists.

I glared at Lenalee as she looked like she was about to cry, I wanted to stabbed her with one of my candles and give her something to cry about. After all she kept trying to get closer to Red, which was tempting me to kill her. I narrowed my eyes as she moved closer to Red; she touched his hand which sent me over the edge. I sent my candles flying at her but Lavi pulled her out of the road of the candles.

I smiled at her as she stared wide eyed at the chair, which was now punctured with candles. Tyki and Red sweat dropped at my jealous behaviour. "Don't touch Red, Lenalee...He is Mine." I glared at Lenalee as I skipped over to Red, wrapping my arms around his neck and sitting on his lap, a faint pink tint could be seen on his cheeks.

Red's POV:

I avoid Road's eyes as she sat on my lap, wrapping her arms around my neck as she glared at Lenalee. I looked back at Tyki and watched him eat, my mouth watering slightly as I stared at his food. I was tempted to eat the food but I couldn't because the exorcists would most likely find it strange. I looked at Road with pleading eyes because I hadn't eaten in a couple days and I need food. She placed an un-wrapped candy in my hand as I quickly placed it in my mouth before any one saw.

Road giggled as she looked at the bookman, Lavi. She then decided she wanted to fight him, pulling him into the dream world where she is trying to break him or better yet his mind. Road jumped onto Lero as she trapped Lenalee, Chaoji and Lavi in a cage, Lavi was in a different cage but Lenalee and Chaoji were trapped in a dice looking cage. Kanda walked forward with me as we were ready to fight Tyki.

I smiled at Tyki as he smirked in returned as Kanda lunged at him. Tyki blocking it with his tease sword thing, I activated Crown Clown and lunge at Tyki but not going full out. Tyki knocked me out of the road, Kanda trying to slice Tyki but missing and hitting me in the chest, I hissed out in pain as I bull the blade that has gone into my chest only about an inch.

I growled at Kanda as I nearly change into my Noah form, which would have ended badly. So I fell to my knees as blood dripped onto the ground, also small amounts of blood dripped off Kanda's sword. "Ch, Baka Moyashi..."

I growled my eye twitching as Kanda went back to fighting Tyki, my vision darkened a little but when I felt something sharp touch my back, I knew it was Road with a candle behind me. I heard her whisper out as she pressed the candle onto my back a little harder. "Are you alright Red?"

I nodded my head slightly as a crimson pool started to surround my feet, making me grow weaker by the minute. I then heard a scream which shocked me because my head shot up to see Tyki screaming in pain as he clutched his chest. Worry filled me as I wanted to move closer to Tyki but didn't, instead Road did after shooting a candle at Kanda's leg. I heard another scream but this one came from Kory and he was squished into an Iron Maiden. 'What a lovely way to die. Well done, Jasdevi.'

I looked back at Tyki, who was unconscious and had his head on Road's lap. 'God if Sheryl was here...' I shivered as a small trail of blood left my lips. Shit he cut deeper than I thought; I placed a hand on the ground as I heard Lenalee scream our names. I ignored her as Lavi was released from his cage a purple mark making its way onto his face, Road had broken him...

I stared at Lavi as he moved towards me, I struggled to get onto my feet but as soon as I stood I was knocked away with Lavi's hammer, I was slammed into a pillar. I groaned as I know had a headache start to form, I narrowed my eyes at Lavi as he activated his innocence and a giant fire serpent travelled around the room destroying everything in its path. My eyes widened as I just didn't wrap Crown Clown fast enough around me causing the fire serpent to burn my shoulder and a small bit of my chest. I bit my tongue so I wouldn't scream out in pain; I then made my way over to Lavi, wrapping Crown Clown around both of us.

After the fire died, I broke out of the shell me and Lavi were trapped in but while I was saving Lavi I had gotten blood on him. I coughed up a little blood as I walked away from Lavi and to a crisped Road, my eyes widen as tears burned at my eyes. She looked at me and muttered out. "....Re....Red.....Red..." Then she turned to ash and blew away. I looked around the area for Tyki and didn't see him. 'Road must have taken him back to the new Ark.'

My thoughts were broken when the ground shock and everything started to crumble away. Cross appeared from a hole in the ground, his eye narrowed as he pointed his gun, Judgement at me, my eyes widening a fraction. "Hmm...I thought you were dead, brat."

"Well, I'm not asshole..." I bit my tongue as I glared at him back, trying not to say anything to him. I fell to my knees as I felt light head from blood loss. I swear I'll get Kanda back for this....I growled as I looked up at Cross once more. "You guys need to get out of here....I can get you out but you can't question how..." My breathing became heavier as I pushed myself off my knees.

They nodded and I hummed the fourteenth song, a white Ark gate appearing as they looked at it. "Quick go.....I'll be right behind you..." I looked at Cross as he yelled at them to get there asses moving, he nodded as I stared at the gate but Lenalee stopped just before hand and turned around. Lenalee had tears in her eyes as she help Lavi carry Kory into the gate, blood pooling around me. "Quick hurry...I'll be right behind you..." They just stared at me as I placed a hand on the ground keeping me up right.

A chuckle escaped my lips as the Ark crumbled around me faster; I looked at the exorcists in front of me with a smile twitching at my lips. They looked at me with worry and sadness in their eyes, the Ark gate I had opened began to crumble as the room was downloaded.

"Red please...come with us...there is still time." Lenalee said with tearful eyes, a smile twitched at my paling face, I had a wound on my chest that Kanda caused when fighting Tyki and Lavi had caused burns on me when he broke free from Road. I know she didn't mean to hurt me but when Lavi awoke from her dream; he let his fire snake out of control which I didn't react quick enough causing him to burn my chest and shoulder.

I activated Crown Clown to protected Lavi from his demise but I only did all this because the Earl said I was to act like the hero and befriend them all. I did befriend them all but all I really wanted to do was get back on the Ark and be with my family, with Road. I had come to love Road and yes, I had discovered the emotion or feeling love when Road layed a kiss upon my lips, sparking the emotion. Too bad it may be the last kiss we share, we did kiss on the Ark when I walked through the door but I might not make it with my wound becoming worse as I keep the Ark gate open.

"Thank you...guys..." A smile graced my lips, this smile being real and not fake. "Thank you for giving me some of my emotions back...Goodbye."
