Chapter 1: Akuma.
(Y/N) POV:
I ran as fast as I could, my lungs burning from the strain. Laughter echoed around me and I wished I could run faster, my underused muscles aching and about to quit. I felt a tear slip down my check and I screamed in frustration, I was going to die here, and no one would ever know how it happened, not like anyone would f*cking care anyway. My legs gave out from under me and I slammed into the hard stone, I tried to push myself up as fast as I could but the thing had already caught up. The creatures scaly grey skin loomed into my vision and I felt my whole body shake, I didn't know what it was but it looked like something straight from my nightmares. It's enlarged head had three bulging eyes with slits for pupils, It's body was somewhat human but it's limbs to thin and long and it's stomach protruding from it's bony torso . It raised one of it's arms towards me and I could see the long claws at the end of each of it's fingers. I instantly tried to back away but my body screamed at me to stop. My voice was a shaking mess, "S-somebody.... SOMEBODY PLEASE HELP ME!" The monster grinned at my words, "Silly child" It's voice was a shrill hiss, " You will give me your innocence and DIE!" It lunged at me but stopped mere inches from me, it's expression one of shock. "E-exorcist..." It glared at something behind me but I was to scared to take my eyes off the monster. I heard footsteps start to get closer and the creature instinctively backed away. The footsteps stopped right beside me and I slowly looked over to see who it was. The strangers features were shrouded in shadows but I could tell It was a man, he wore a strange coat and had white hair, an old man? He slightly glanced over at me before closing in on the monster, "Innocence activate" His entire outfit changed instantly, his dark coat turning into a long white cloak. He lunged at the creature before I could tell if anything else had changed, with one swift movement the monster was gone and his outfit had changed back. I stared at him with a look of shock and amazement. "H-how did you do that?" He walked over to me and helped me up, "I'm an exorcist for the black order, That monster was an akuma, it is the duty of exorcists to rid this world of akuma." His voice was surprisingly, Young? He raised his head slightly, illuminating his features. He looked my age with silver hair and grey/blue eyes. I noticed we were around the same hight, with him maybe an inch taller. "The akuma mentioned innocence, did it say you had it?" I slowly nodded and he sighed, "Then I am very sorry for you. I will have to take you back to the black order with me." "W-what?! Why do I have to go to a creepy sounding place like that with you?" He grumbled, "Look, unless you want hundreds more akuma coming after you then you have to come with me, the black order is safe and they will teach you how to defend yourself against akuma." He grabbed my wrist and started pulling me with him, "Now no complaining, where do you live? you'll need to pack your things." "... I don't have a home..." He stopped and looked at me, his expression blank before turning into one of sympathy. "I'm sorry... I guess we can just leave then." He started pulling me again and I tried pulling back, "I can walk on my own, let go." He gripped my wrist tighter before letting go, "Look, i'm not trying to insult you or anything but I don't even know your name, why would I want you touching me?" He scratched his head and slightly chuckled, "Sorry, with everything that happened I forgot to introduce myself. My names Allen walker." He reached his gloved hand out to me and I reluctantly shook it, "I'm (Y/N) (L/N)..." "Nice to meet you (Y/N), I hope we can be friends from here on out."
