Tragedy And Nightmares

When Kira woke up,she found herself in her own room.Her sight was still fuzzy,but she could hear the raindrops beating softly against the windows.Kira's brother was the first to go in,as expected by Kira.

"KIRAAAA!!!I'M SO GLAD YOU'RE FINE!!!"

"Nii-san!"Kira ran up to her brother and hugged him tightly."I'm sorry.I wasn't able to protect everyone.I didn't live up to my promise."

"It's all right now.You're back safely,that's all that matters now."

Outside,A Finder was waiting.

"Where's the new Excorcist?"

Allen shook his head sadly.Lenalee buried her face in her hands,blaming herself for leaving Kira behind.When Allen sat down beside her and put a hand on her shoulder,she cried even harder.

On a ship the Finder came in Allen was frustrated.He stood outside the door of Lenalee's room.He thought for a long time before deciding to knock.

"Come in."

Allen entered and found Lenalee sitting on her bed,still mulling over what had happened.She definitely wasn't her cheerful self.Allen tried to cheer her up,but she always forced a smile and said she was all right.Allen knew she wasn't,so he told her it wasn't her fault that it all happened.

"I feel I'm responsible for all this.I was the one who left her behind."

"But you didn't know what was going to happen.It's not your fault."

"I feel that it is."Lenalee turned away.

"If...you need me,I'll always be here for you."Allen said with emotions swirling in his eyes.

"Thanks,Allen-kun."Lenalee smiled faintly.

Allen walked out of her room,yet he still wasn't so sure if Lenalee's all right.He went back to his own room,but stayed awake just in case Lenalee needed him for something.He suddenly felt hungry,so he walked towards the kitchen to grab a snack.Suddenly,he felt his eye sting.Covering in eye with his left hand,he walked quickly into the kitchen in case anyone had seen him.All the Finders were asleep in their rooms.Yet he still felt that he should cover it.He looked out of the window,watching the waves lap over one another peacefully.He was not aware that Lenalee was tossing around in her bed,sweating furiously,calling out the name she loved.
