Becoming Insane Part 2
Here's the next part =3
I hope you all like it (whoever reads it XD)

Tyki lay under a tree, staring at the branches stirring softly above him. Allen is alive…Allen is alive…How could Allen be alive? Tyki had had his tease bite into his heart, which was an internal wound that could kill any human. Was Allen Walker just some super being? Did he possess powers greater than the Noah, or even the Millennium Earl? He grit his teeth and covered his eyes with his arm. “No, that can’t be. What kind of an exorcist could be stronger than we Noah, or the Earl?”
“Yo, Tyki.” Road called as she came up to him, Lero floating alongside her. He sat up and greeted her similarly. She had an impish smile on her face. “The Earl wants us to go to London.”
Tyki gave her a questioning look and propped himself up on his knees and looked out over the hills of the Japanese countryside they were staying in for the time being. “Why? Isn’t Cross supposed to be here? And what about the Ark?”
Road smiled. “He thinks he has an idea of where the Heart is…”
“In London?”
She nodded and turned, grabbing Lero. He let out a little squeal as she gruffly opened him and used him to shade herself from the sun. “I suppose he thinks that getting to the heart will help speed things along…”
Tyki looked over at her and sighed, getting up to follow her. He asked, “What about Jasdero and David? Are they staying to take care of the exorcists?”
“Yup…” Road replied and smiled at him. “He’s sending us to London.”
Tyki thought it was strange. With the Ark being in such unstable condition, wouldn’t the Earl want them both here? Or at least Road or Tyki alongside Jasdero and David? He shook his head. “I don’t see why he wants us both to go. I mean, most of those damned exorcists will be flocking around Asia trying to find Cross.”
Lero piped up then with, “He doesn’t think so, Lero. The Earl feels that the exorcists will have this news as well, and wants you to be prepared, Lero.”
Tyki huffed slightly. “Well, how nice of him. When do we leave, Road?”
“He wanted us in London yesterday when we talked.” Road giggled and continued walking.
There wasn’t anything Tyki could do but go with Road to London. Though his head was clambering still for some reason as to how Allen could have lived through the extremities he had put his body under. Tyki hated this feeling. It was like someone had taken that relief he had had when he knew Allen was dead, and yanked it away suddenly like taking a gift from a child. Somehow, he had had a feeling that it was only temporary anyways. Tyki had an unfamiliar pull that replaced the force that wanted Allen dead. When he “died” so to speak, the pull grew stronger until he wasn’t sure he could hardly bear it anymore. What made it worse, was knowing that Allen may be there in London, waiting for them so to speak.
“Tyki…you’re quiet.” Road noted as they stepped out onto the cobblestone road.
“Just thinking.” He replied and pulled off his top hat and then pulled out his hair, letting his curls fall around his face. “I’ll head North and you’ll head South then, Road?” When she nodded he replied with one nod of his own then let himself turn ‘white’, where he pulled on his glasses and lit a cigarette. “Then we’ll meet back in a few hours and go East and West unless we find anything before then.”
As Road turned South, Tyki looked around at the people. There were Akuma everywhere, mostly level ones. Their blind devotion border lined stupidity at times, though they were useful. Some of them were smart enough to not really bring attention to Tyki himself, which was a good thing for the moment, even though the Exorcists would recognize him right away. All they did to acknowledge him was to turn their eyes in his direction for a brief moment, then look away again. I guess for now…we’ll search for the innocence…and maybe those Exorcists… Tyki thought, and a feral grin came across his face, his features stretching. He smiled through his fingers as he covered his face to hide this strange look from any humans wandering amongst the Akumas. If I see you, Allen Walker, I am going to kill you.
~~~
There wasn’t much to London but the people, who were everywhere. There had been a strange phenomenon where suddenly, a boom in population occurred, and people began appearing who had the same form and look as those who had died. Many children, mothers, fathers, grandparents, and even newborns were with their families, going out for walks and shopping together. Tyki didn’t know all the details himself, but he had been to London once before, and he never remembered it being this crowded. The busy streets didn’t strike him as odd, so much as the people he saw. The people seemed to have a twin. Each person had a mirrored image of himself or herself that went about their own business, alongside the original. The only people that didn’t seem to have twins, were the Akuma themselves, who continued to almost ignore Tyki as he walked the streets.
No matter how queer this city had become, Tyki continued his search, but wielded no results. After hours of searching, he returned to find Road at their meeting point. “Have you seen anything Road?”
She shook her head and smiled. “But I think the Exorcists are here…”
Tyki glanced around, half expecting to see them walking nearby. “Already? What makes you say that?”
“Some of the Akuma told me they thought they saw some people dressed in dark jackets. They didn’t see the emblems well, but they’re positive they’re here.” She turned toward the East, smiling at him. Tyki wondered why the Akuma hadn’t notified him as well, but what she said next caught his attention. “Also, they thought they saw a white haired boy with them…”
From Road’s sinister look, Tyki could see that she was as anxious to get at Allen as he was. He grinned, and it almost turned into a sneer. “If you see him Road, don’t kill him. That is my job…”
~~~
“It was your job…” She reminded him then began walking along. “It’s fine. If you don’t kill him first, then I guess I’ll get to see his sad face when he sees all his friends are dead…”
He turned and headed West. The sun was beginning to set, and he didn’t know how much longer they were going to search, but hopefully, they’d find the Heart. Or at least the Exorcists. He lit a cigarette and he looked about him at the humans. Such small, insignificant creatures compared to the Noah. They possessed nothing, no powers, no abilities of their own really. All they had was their love, and their lives. The Noah’s eyes softened a little. He wished everything was that simple. The power he had was amazing, but this feeling he felt when around an Exorcist, when hew as around the innocence, it all made him sick. Tyki was controlled by his instinct to kill these pathetic beings to the point that he almost no longer had the power to control himself anymore. He hated it.
Tyki gasped when a surge of power surfaced in him, and every fiber of his being become alive with the power he possessed. The Tease, which were contained in his own body through the Earl’s power and his own, squirmed excitedly in his hands, making them twitch and tingle. Using his willpower, Tyki had the feelings sink down into him and diminish slowly until it was only a buzz in the back of his mind. He frowned as he looked around, realizing that Exorcists were very close now. Tyki ducked back into the awning of the shop and waited a minute, wondering if they were so close he’d see them walk by. Time went by, and nothing happened. Wondering if it was just a jumpy feeling he had from being on edge and thinking about the Exorcists a little more than needed.
He gasped again and this time, it was harder keeping that feeling down. Tyki dropped his cigarette and glared at the crowd again, searching for some sign of what was the cause of his discomfort. The urge to kill buzzed through him and his eyes slanted again. What is causing me to burn so much inside? It was as if some angry monster inside of him was clawing to get out. There was a moment of silent suffering as Tyki watched the crowd more closely now and waited out the raging feelings. Tyki saw something out of the corner of his eye and looked towards his right, across the cobblestone street. At first, it seemed lost in the crowd, but then he saw it. A head of white hair, shorter than most of the adults walking by. He was standing there, and whenever the crowd thinned out, he saw a group in black coats, all staring at what the young boy with white hair was staring at. Tyki Mikk frowned a moment then gave a smirk, an almost inviting one, to the boy. It seems I will get to kill you after all, Allen Walker, he thought and took a few steps out into the sunlight and turned for an alleyway.
There was shouting behind him, and Allen’s name rang out amongst the commotion. Tyki decided if he didn’t get running soon, he would be hit from behind, so he began to run along the ground before climbing the air. He used it as a staircase and ran up to the wall of a building, disappearing through it to take shelter inside. Allen would have been close enough to see him just as he was vanishing through the wall, so he expected him to appear in a moment. Taking a little bit of time, he looked around the room he was in. It looked like it hadn’t been used in a long time. An abandoned dresser lay on its side with a few books and garments scattered around it on the floor. Off to the corner was a bed with old and slightly tattered sheets. He walked over towards it, and then went to a window on the other side of the room, one that was facing the street. He could see the Akuma crowding around the Exorcists in the street, and so began a lot of banging and crashing. Tyki couldn’t see Allen among them.
“Tyki Mikk…” The Noah turned and saw Allen standing by the other window. Tyki took a moment to take in how different Allen was, including his Innocence. He hadn’t noticed before how much Allen’s innocence had changed because it hadn’t been invocated. His left hand was more elegantly elongated, with long and slender fingers. The other had a more clownish appearance, like a cartoon-like glove had been placed on it. Around his shoulders, he had a cape that met at a mask that he had pulled over his face. He looked just like the name the Earl had said it possessed. ‘The Crowned Clown’. The mask concealed most of his face, but the way he was frowning showed he was in a very grim mood.
“Exorcist Allen Walker.” Tyki greeted him back and smiled. “It seems like destiny, don’t you think? First you strip a Noah to his underwear playing cards, then we meet again. Twice.”
Allen pulled his hood off to reveal his scar along his left eye had grown longer and seemed to drip down his chin. “It’s not really destiny. I’ve stripped many men to their underwear when playing cards.”
Tyki chuckled and walked over to the bed, hearing Allen shift as he watched him. “But did you ever meet them again? Oh my, what a mean thing to say…and your innocence,” He paused and at the bed, he glanced towards the Exorcists’ left arm. He gave an evil grin as he murmured, “I’m was surprised when the Earl told me it, and you, survived. I’m pretty sure I destroyed that arm.”
This time, Allen smiled right back, a cheeky but angry sort of grin that made Tyki shiver with revulsion, and also with anticipation. He was ready to wipe that smirk off of his lips and destroy him completely this time, and make sure nothing was left of him or that innocence of his. The Exorcist lifted his left hand and said, “Well it seems you didn’t. It’s right here, after all…”
It was a long pause before Tyki let his ‘white’ side disappear and pulled his dark hair back. “I see. Well then, it looks like you and I are going to fight again. The look in your eyes doesn’t tell me much, but I know you’re not happy…”
Allen opened his mouth to say something, but didn’t. He swallowed his words and ran for Tyki, his voice ringing and crying out, “Clown Belt!”
Dozens of straps flew out and grabbed Tyki to hold him as Allen came barreling towards him, but as Allen hit and they collided into the wall, he sent them right through it into the next room. Tyki wasn’t injured yet; he had his shield up and was holding against Allen’s arm with all he had. Growling, he pushed Allen and sent him back far enough to give him time to bring out his Tease. He called them out, and felt them slither out of his body, from his arms up to his shoulders, and when they were out, he sent them after Allen. They went for the Exorcist, letting out a chattering scream as they all swarmed to him. As they hit, they were immediately shredded to nothing. The cloak around Allen’s shoulders had grown in size and completely enveloped him in order to ward off the danger to him. Tyki took his chance and ran for him, taking a few steps on the air to build a bit of height and maybe catch him from up above, but Allen was quick and had him blocked. “I don’t hate you boy. I have no reason to hate you... What are you thinking?”
Allen gritted his teeth and using his clown belt, he whirled Tyki around and let him go, sending him into another wall, which he passed through. He ended up in the hallway of the upper floor of the building. It was hardly a blow that could have kept Tyki off of his feet and since he had kept himself from being knocked into a wall, he had only a few bumps. Allen soon appeared in the hallway after him and watched him steadily. “That’s right, you can pass through objects at will…”
“Had you almost forgotten, boy?” Tyki asked and sent another flurry of Tease at him. A resounding scream echoed as they were slashed like the previous cluster. “I have the privilege to touch anything in this world that I choose…but your innocence is different. It doesn’t apply to ‘this world’ so I can’t choose to avoid it. It’s annoying.” Tyki charged at him and watched as he leapt up and swirled in the air, his Innocence shining as he prepared to use it. Tyki’s Tease came out again and charged for Allen, becoming destroyed for a third time by Allen’s Innocence. My Tease won’t work on him. Not unless they get a chance like before, He thought as he stood opposite of Allen, and I have a feeling that won’t happen a second time. Tyki passed into another room that was much larger than the others, and with a lounging sofa and a few overturned chairs it could have been a family room at one time. He stood to one side of the place in the wall he had come through and waited. In a moment, Allen came charging through, his Crowned Clown using force to break down the wall.
Tyki took the chance and in one swift motion, reached up and took Allen’s arms both into a hold with his star shaped shields, holding them in place tightly by connecting the two crooks on each together. They made a makeshift set of handcuffs and Tyki grinned as the Exorcist struggled. His Innocence was on the side of the shield where it wouldn’t harm Tyki, and it seemed that for now, Allen Walker was in no position to really use much strength, yet it seemed odd to Tyki. He should have gotten stronger with his upgrade of his innocence, so why wasn’t he working harder to get away?
A pulse ran through him and he felt pressured again, pressured and pushed to kill the boy he had a hold of. It should have been easy enough to release and quickly kill this boy, but something pulled him to a different place, and made him think a moment. Allen continued to struggle and push against Tyki’s hold on him, but he could only move so much. His strength was great, but in this uncomfortable position that didn’t allow much movement, he only jerked Tyki back and forth a little. The Noah pressed the niches of the shields together and a small sound emitted from Allen. “Come on Exorcist, tell me what you’re thinking…” Tyki said in his ear. Allen jerked away and unable to help but smile, Tyki charged forward with Allen, planning to smash him into a wall, but Allen did some quick thinking. He lifted his feet just beforehand and as his feet hit, he kicked off and they both rebounded back, knocking over a chair and almost hitting the sofa. After they both stumbled a moment, Tyki landed on top of Allen, his taller and slightly heavier body pressing him into the floor.
On top of Allen, Tyki held him tightly and leaned over, chuckling into his ear. “It feels like you’re not really trying, Walker…”
Again, he jerked away and Tyki leaned in further, licking his ear. The smaller body shuddered and it wasn’t one of revulsion or fear, for Allen’s legs squirmed ever so slightly when he did that. Tyki’s eyes glinted as he had an idea. He pulled Allen up and brought him over to the sofa, laying him gruffly on his stomach. Using skillful hands, he separated the two shields and pressed Allen’s hands into the small of his back using the flat side of one. The Exorcist let out a discomforted sound and squirmed again. At the moment, he wasn’t sure what to think of Tyki’s actions. The Noah made the shield disappear and using his power, he sunk his hand into Allen’s body slowly, relishing the noises Allen made in his uneasiness of being touched on the inside. He took the time to explore the inside of Allen’s body, feeling along his lower half. From the bottom of his ribcage, he felt along down to his intestines and through his reproductive organs, back up to his ribcage and then his lungs, which made Allen cough slightly as Tyki passed through one of them. Allen began panting as he lingered there in his chest. “W-What are you doing? Aren’t you going to kill me?”
Tyki’s heart pounded at the mention of killing Allen, and his eyes slanted as he resisted the urge to crush the lung his hand was inside. “Sure enough, but I’d thought I would play with you a little. It’s so sad though, that you couldn’t fight me…”
Allen stopped panting and his breath calmed a little. Tyki pulled his hand out and thought a moment of what he could do next with the young boy in front of him. Sure enough, a courageous person deserved the death that he had tried to give Allen before, but he didn’t feel like he could give him that kind of a death again. A strange tightness in his chest at the thought made him wonder if he could do it at all. Such nonsense! I should be able to kill this insignificant worm, Tyki thought, plunging his hand into his chest one more time and feeling for the pumping organ that was his heart. He wrapped his hand around it, but immediately pulled back again, as if burned.
“Your…Innocence repaired your heart?” Tyki muttered in disgust. “The Earl was right, your innocence isn’t normal…”
Allen took advantage of Tyki’s surprise and shoved himself back and because Tyki had stopped using the shields as cuffs on Allen’s wrists, he was flown back in his surprise. Allen rounded on him with his innocence and would have struck, had Tyki not had one shield ready to block him. The force that Allen struck with made the floorboards crack and break a little. “I won’t ever let you touch my heart again, Tyki Mikk.”
The look of surprise was gone from Tyki’s face and it was replaced with a leering look as he steadied himself with the hand that had no shield up and pushed up, barely forcing Allen back. “You make such intimate words Allen.” He said with a smile and relaxed back a little, then shot his hand up and attacked Allen with a flurry of Tease. He didn’t have time to fight them off and was hit with a few. They sunk into his skin as he stumbled back in surprise. Before they could begin eating at Allen’s insides, Tyki stepped up and watched as the Tease slithered out of him in shreds. “Your Innocence really protects you.”
Allen nodded. “I am connected to it body and soul. It won’t let you or your Tease hurt me.”
Nodding, Tyki stepped forward, walking to him in long and timed strides. Allen tensed slightly, but realized that he was in no danger, for the moment. He knew that if Tyki got any closer, he could attempt something that wouldn’t be blocked well, but he took the chance. Tyki stepped up close to him and grinned down at him. “I suppose you’re lucky then, boy.”
Allen didn’t flinch, answer, or move. He continued to stare up at Tyki and watch his every move out of the corners of his eyes while he stared into Tyki’s. Allen’s eyes twitched towards one of Tyki’s hands that moved up and reached for his face, letting it caress him. The soft feel of the glove made Allen shiver and before he could relax any, he backed up a bit. “Don’t touch me.”
“Oh ho!” Tyki chuckled and moved closer, bringing up his left hand as the shield materialized and he had the point against Allen’s belly, digging in a little. “Sensitive are we? Well let me indulge myself, boy. I want to look at you a minute.”
With a wolfish grin on his face, Tyki reached up with his right hand, pausing when Allen’s Innocence pointed against his own stomach. He looked down and his grin turned to an amused smile. Allen was still glaring as he muttered, “Just so we’re even…”
“Yes. Best make it fair…” Tyki agreed then continued moving his hand up to the cheek of the Exorcist he had before him. There was a light sound in the back of Tyki’s throat as he made that feeling submit inside of him again. Couldn’t it just leave him alone for more than a minute? All he wanted to do, was play with him a little before he really tried to kill him, was that so hard? Tyki traced the scar from Allen’s forehead down to his cheek. “A cursed life, huh? I feel a little sorry for you, Exorcist.”
The boy jerked his head away and looked towards the wall. “It’s nothing. I’ve become accustomed to it.”
While Allen’s face didn’t change, his tone sounded sad. Tyki shook his head and put a heavy hand on his shoulder, forcing him to sit down on the couch as he leaned over him. Instantly on guard again, Allen pressed his Innocence further into his stomach as a warning, but Tyki paid it no mind. He used both hands, letting the shields fall away as he did, and pulled Allen’s up above his head, forcing him to lay back on the small couch. Realizing that he had let Tyki get the upper hand, he started to struggle, but Tyki just made his hands tighter. Bringing his legs up to maybe kick him away, he was surprised when they passed right through him. Since his legs had no Innocence attached to them, they could go right through him and they did. Tyki rested one knee on the sofa and looked down at the boy. He was under the control of the power bestowed by Noah again. That same power that urged him to kill the Exorcist, and his phony ideas, so his phony God could rot away and the stories that came with him could die forever. He scrutinized the boy underneath him and grabbed his chin gruffly, turning his face from one side to another. Allen huffed and tried jerking his chin away. “W-What are you doing?”
Tyki was quiet a minute, then he took hold of Allen’s knee and pushed it away from him, making himself solid against Allen’s body again in between his legs. He pressed close, his and Allen’s noses almost touching. “I’m going to kill you, Exorcist. First, though, I’m going to really disgrace you. I’ll make you so unrecognizable, your dear friends won’t be able to tell who you are.”
While he kept a hand on Allen’s, he used his free one to run it up his leg. The young man jumped and tried jerking his leg away, but Tyki gripped it hard to force him to stop. When it stopped for a moment, he slid it up the rest of the way to his hip and squeezed gently. Instantly, Allen’s body shuddered and he dipped his head back. His cheeks blushed a little in embarrassment, or maybe shame. Tyki grinned as he saw how this humiliated him and he moved his hand up further, moving up to his chest, where he stroked him through the fabric. Another tremor ran through the body underneath him and he smiled even more. “Do you like that, boy?”
“N-No!” Allen clamped his legs together hard to hopefully pin Tyki in his sides with his knees, but he missed again as Tyki let them pass through his body. When they collided together, Allen cringed from the pain that shot through them both and they were useless to him at the moment. Not wanting to give up, he pulled and jerked on his hands, but Tyki had thought ahead and for double measure, he brought up one of his shields from his wrist and used the niche of the star shape to bind him there. Tyki’s fingers worked fast at unbuttoning the coat that bore the mark of the Exorcist and opened it up so his shirt underneath was exposed. It was tucked into the heavy and bulky belt that Allen wore, so he undid the buckle and pulled the shirt up, running his hand along the hot body he had in his hands. Another shiver welcomed his hands.
“You are far too sensitive, boy,” Tyki noted and stroked a nipple with his gloved hand. Allen’s lower half squirmed on the couch and the sight made Tyki growl under his breath. Under his weight and his hand, Allen looked helpless. He looked so fragile and almost breakable; it was a sad sight for such a great Exorcist as Allen to be in a position like this one. Tyki leaned in, pressing his hips into Allen’s and he was surprised that he moaned under his breath from the pleasure he received from such a small movement. He experimentally pressed more and he shivered this time. Tyki sighed and whispered, “Just…how far do I have to go until you’re broken?”
Allen stopped and looked up at the Noah above him. “W-What?”
Tyki leaned in even further and pressed his lips experimentally to Allen’s. There was an immediate struggle from Allen, but Tyki gripped his chin and held him in place. The taste of Allen’s lips was sweet, and they felt soft against his own. Does the rest of him feel this soft? He pulled back and used his teeth to pull the glove off of his free hand before tossing it aside and pressing his hand to Allen’s chest. His skin was hot, and he shivered when their skin made contact. It was softer than he expected. His hand traveled around, down to his stomach and along his side until it came to the waistband of his pants. He slid his fingertips down a little, along his hips until he felt Allen buck his hips at the touch. Tyki gripped hard as Allen struggled more and he looked up to his face to find pure hatred in his eyes. The stare made him shiver and he gave a grin, but it was halfhearted. “Do you hate me boy?”
Placing one knee on Allen’s stomach to keep him from moving his hips, he slid his fingers down into his pants, sliding his hand along to his front, where he began touching and fondling him in ways that he didn’t think the Exorcist would have ever thought someone else would do. Allen struggled more, but Tyki just held him down more. As Tyki began to gently rub him more and let his fingers glide along the sensitive areas of the young teen’s groin, the body relaxed under him and more labored breaths left Allen’s lungs. Watching him grow in his excitement made Tyki feel the same and instead of putting the intent of lustful torture into it, he was beginning to want him. He wanted this Exorcist now as he had never wanted another. This small and strong, but seemingly frail boy was exciting him without even trying to. Tyki closed in again for a kiss and he pulled Allen’s pants down to his thighs, exposing his penis that was slowly growing erect. While taking him into his hand again and stroking, Tyki took his hand back and quickly undid his own, failing to notice that Allen’s innocence had deactivated and his legs were now limp above his head. Even if Allen had quit struggling for the moment, Tyki took his hands again and held them tightly while he made a trail of kisses and licks down his chest, pulling the shirt up high to have more access to the pale skin he saw before him.
A moan from Allen surprised them both and Tyki’s head lifted up a minute, eyes wide as he stared through strands of black hair at the blue eyes that looked back at him through strands of white. Both of them were breathing heavily as they stared, unsure of what to think about that small sound that had escaped. It gave them both a moment to reassess what they were doing, and how they were beginning to feel about the whole thing. Tyki had imagined it, as a bit of fun before he killed Allen, and he didn’t think that any of this would affect him in any way but pleasing that side of him where Noah’s pleasure rang out in triumph in his head over the death of an Exorcist. There was too much enjoyment for the human side of him. It felt too good. Tyki took away one of his hands and shoved Allen’s pants down gruffly now and he earned a confused look from Allen Walker as he pulled his own down soon after. Immediately, he was on Allen, kissing him and fondling him more gruffly. This earned renewed struggles from the teen, but Tyki ignored them as he gripped hard. He bit Allen’s neck, then went to his ear and hissed, “I…will make you beg for mercy, boy…I will make you pay for thinking you could destroy me!”
Instantly, he flipped him over and held him down, rubbing his hips into his bottom while growling under his breath. Nothing but hate and rage coursed through him as he pressed him into the couch; his grip was probably leaving bruises at this point. Allen was trying to hide the sounds he was making, and his half-moans and half-cries of pain hung in the air as Tyki continued to molest him. Tyki thought Allen was done fighting since he wasn’t really struggling a lot. Either he had given up, or he was beginning to enjoy himself. A brief thought crossed his mind and he pulled back, wetting a finger with his saliva before running it down to Allen’s puckered entrance. He swirled around it a moment to let Allen get the idea, and was greeted with a gasp and a sharp and hoarse cry of, “N-No!”
Tyki covered his mouth with the gloved hand and he slid the finger of the other inside him, coaxing out a small shriek from Allen. He grimaced at the strange sensation of this new action. In his ‘white’ form, Tyki had heard of men doing this together behind closed doors from the various people he was around every day and he had also heard of the whores in the brothels letting men do it to them as well. Personally, the idea hadn’t been too appealing to him so he had never tried it. Now, though, the action seemed perfect to humiliate the Exorcist he had in his hands. After sliding one finger in and out of him, Tyki added another and there was a shiver throughout Allen’s body. He whimpered against Tyki’s fingers and almost rocked his hips, but stopped and Tyki felt his jaw tighten as if to grit his teeth. “If you like it just say so…” He whispered to him with a chuckle as he reached deep inside and prodded him in a place that made his hips jump and his whole body jolt. Tyki himself moaned at the sight and kept pressing Allen there, listening to the muffled moans crescendo and watching as the little body jerked and shake at the mercy of his fingers.
The Noah stopped pressing into him and he watched a minute, panting as he waited to see what Allen would do. More muffled whimpers made their way to his ears and Allen shook with what might have been the effort to not rock his hips and ask for more. Tyki had a feeling that this was what it was and he grinned. He positioned himself on the couch behind him and after adding a little saliva to his cock so it would go in easier and more comfortably for him, he lined up and let Allen know his intention by rubbing himself around the puckered skin again. The Exorcist jerked his head in an attempt to turn, but Tyki grasped his neck and forced it ahead. There was a moment of silence while they both readied themselves for what was to come and then Tyki slid inside.
Allen screamed and his legs thrashed, but Tyki cut him off by squeezing his throat and cutting away most of the air to his vocal cords. Light and airy sounds replaced the screaming as Tyki kept his grip, and let his body soak in the explosive pleasure that had shot through his groin and sent pulses to his brain, making his head spin. Immediately, he rocked his hips and moaned softly as the hand that wasn’t around Allen’s neck steadied his hips and kept him in place while he explored this new feeling.
Experimentally, he slid himself back and then pushed back in again. Allen twitched and choked out a little yelp before a small groan escaped him. How humiliating it must be, to feel the pain but enjoy it all the same… Tyki thought before he pulled out even further than before and pressed on again, pushing deep into him until that same jolting movement came from Allen. He rotated his hips and let his hand relax on Allen’s throat a minute, listening to him as he moaned and whimpered. Very subtly, Tyki could feel the others muscular buttocks rubbing him back, urging for more of that rotation. He gripped Allen’s neck again and pulled his head up, biting into his shoulder as he pressed into him firmly. As Allen bit back a pleasurable cry, Tyki chuckled into his ear. “Do you really enjoy this Allen Walker? Who knew there were any queers in the Black Order…”
Allen tried turning his head away, but Tyki made him keep it up and he continued digging his teeth into his shoulder, one hand reaching forward to play with his cock a little. Allen’s taut body was stretched out in this position, so that his muscles were outlined well and as he gently pulled away from Allen’s cock, he traced his fingers along he planes of the Exorcist’s skin, feeling the way his muscles rolled as his chest heaved, how they twitched as his delicate touch passed over them. The muscles in his jaw were tight and Tyki chuckled as he moved to his ear to whisper something to him, when he felt something wet on his hand. The smile disappeared from his face and a curious one took hold. He looked at Allen and saw that his eyes were closed and tears were falling, sliding down the scar on his cheek to his hand. He was whimpering and whispering something against Tyki’s hand that was on his throat and with a shred of mercy, he loosened it to hear him. “P-Please…just stop…end it…”
Tyki stopped holding him so tightly and let him rest gently in his arms. That pleading tone hit him and he felt a tugging feeling at his heart. A painful and sympathetic feeling that the Noah in him immediately tried to quell, but in order to figure out what it was, he forced himself to keep a hold of it. Was it sympathy, or maybe just his human side trying to tell him that this was wrong? He didn’t know. Softly, he lowered Allen to the couch and let him weep there on the moth-eaten cushions. Tyki didn’t hold onto Allen anymore, but he kept his hand on his back lightly for his own safety; in case Allen decided to fight back once more. Very gently, he began rocking his hips again, moving slowly instead of pounding into him as he had planned before. He sighed as he began moving, watching as Allen wept on the cushions, a moan making it’s way past his lips every now and again. Still moving his hips, he leaned forward and pressed his face into the small of Allen’s back, cradling him almost as his hands slid along the lean arms and then along his pecks, his fingers thumbing the small nipples as he went. He remembered that he still had one glove on and he pulled it off quickly before tossing it aside.
The young boy in his arms gripped the cushions and let Tyki finish up inside of him. He rocked his hips back and moaned in turn to the teasing way Tyki traced his fingers over him and slid in and out of him. Allen had thrown away his shame at this point, seeing as it did no good in this position where he didn’t know whether to fight back, or to hold onto something for dear life in preparation of his climax. They both became locked in the embrace of each other so subtly, they didn’t notice. Pushing and thrusting against each other more and more, Allen’s soft cries for more depth, and Tyki’s strong and easy comply each time seemed to make them meld together and form together a being made up of weaknesses, lust, passion, and a hint of hatred that they felt for one another.
It intensified until Tyki didn’t know if he could handle it anymore. His inner demons, human and Noah, were both fighting in his head like split personalities and they confused him to where he didn’t know what to do anymore. More on instinct than anything, Tyki continued moving in Allen, leaving soft kisses and taking small bites of his skin along his back to bring out more sounds from him. When suddenly, Allen’s hips bucked and he suddenly came without warning. As the teens lower half tightened, Tyki jumped as a wave flooded through him and he was thrusting more and more, working towards his own climax, which came soon after. It was a more alleviating and weightless experience than any time he had been with a woman, and he leaned forward, catching himself with the back of the couch before he could fall on top of Allen. He panted, staring down at the body underneath him, which wasn’t moving. Tyki reached out and brushed a strand of hair away, finding that Allen had passed out upon climaxing.
His cold fingertips brushed the flushed cheek and felt it’s warmth. He marveled at how the scar on his face didn’t hinder his looks, or the expressions he wore. Tyki sighed and pulled back, running his fingers through his hair to pull it back from his sweating face. Gently, he pulled out of Allen and laid him on his side, wincing when he saw the blood from when he first forced himself inside of him. He was still wearing his suit jacket, so he reached into the pocket of it and pulled out one of his handkerchiefs, using it to mop up Allen first and then himself. Since he would have no use for the small cloth anymore, he tossed it into a corner and pulled on his pants, throwing the Black Order jacket over Allen so he wouldn’t be cold after all that. Lighting a cigarette, he took one long drag and let the smoke drift from his mouth as he whispered, “The Earl’s gonna kill me.”
There was no real noise anywhere in that room. Allen’s breathing, the light hissing sound Tyki’s cigarette made ever drag he took on it, and the sounds from the street outside of people talking curiously were the only things that could be heard in that time that Tyki sat there, waiting. Idly, he wondered where the fight had traveled to and thought maybe it had made its way down the road to where they couldn’t hear it anymore. He got up and went to the window to find the street in ruins, but no Exorcists, akuma, or Road in sight. They had all gone somewhere else to fight their battle. Tyki felt relieved, knowing he wouldn’t live this down if an akuma or another Exorcist had come crashing through the wall by mistake. The Earl would know though. He would know just by looking at Tyki and he would surely punish him for such a thing. To torture the poor boy before death in the way he did was disgusting in itself to the Earl, but to show mercy and even feel the way he did made it even worse.
He turned around and looked at the sleeping form under the cloak and sighed with a whisper, “I must be insane…”
Glancing to the side, he threw his cigarette and stepped on it to put it out. He heard Allen stir on the couch and he looked up with only his eyes and saw him wincing as he sat up, then watched as he looked around and spotted Tyki. Even at the distance he was at, Tyki could still see the shame and then the rage build up in his face. It was only a moment before Tyki had to avert his eyes. He looked at the floor, trying to keep a smug look about him, but he knew his face would give it away; at least, until he could compose himself enough to look at him with confidence and not regret. There was another moment of silence between them, and then Allen began gathering his clothes to put them on and cover his naked body. Tyki lifted his head and looked out the window, over the street where people were picking through the rubble and the police were trying to pull them all back to clear the street. “I wonder if your friends have found the Innocence yet, boy. Their fight with Rhode and the akuma has moved elsewhere. I wonder if they’re alright…and if they think you’re…”
Tyki paused. He turned and smiled at Allen’s anti-akuma weapon that was inches from his head. Allen had gotten up and ran over, activating it in the process. He had heard Allen’s footsteps and known what was coming, but what he didn’t expect was that he was hesitating killing him. The Exorcist was breathing heavily, out of anger, and his legs were shaking. It didn’t surprise Tyki, since he had handled him pretty roughly before. Allen glared out at him as he pushed the Innocence forward a little, whispering, “You bastard…”
Tyki smiled more. “Are you hesitating, boy? Why?”
Allen’s eyes filled quickly with tears and he dropped his head, but his arm was still raised, and the Innocence shook with the energy it was building up, getting ready for the slightest hint from it’s master that it wanted to kill this Noah. “Y-You’re human…”
“I’m also your enemy…”
“I know that!” Allen yelled and glared up at him.
“I raped you…”
Allen moved his arm forward, the fingers splaying out on either side of Tyki’s head in a way that caged him in. “I know that too! Just…shut up…”
Tyki didn’t say another word. He watched the young boy he had violated so horribly and his heart hurt. That’s what that was. That strange tugging feeling he felt that fought against his inner Noah so strongly was something in his human side. It wasn’t pity. It wasn’t sympathy. It was some other feeling that Tyki still had yet to figure out and even now, it was fighting the Noah inside him for control. Whatever it was, it hurt his heart and he knew that torturing this boy caused it. Tyki’s fingers itched with that feeling of wanting to kill and to destroy the innocence he faced now but he made himself have control. He didn’t want to kill this boy. Allen looked back up at him, tears still streaming down his face as he stared at Tyki, as if to make some sense of this as well. Pulling his innocence back just enough to see his face better, he asked, “Why didn’t you kill me?”
Tyki sighed. “I don’t know.”
Allen paused a moment and then asked, “Why don’t you kill me now?”
“I don’t know.” That seemed to be the only answer he could give to Allen’s questions. Tyki didn’t know, and he wasn’t sure if he would in time. All he knew was he had to rid himself of this feeling before it altered him so much that he wouldn’t know himself anymore. “You’re friends are probably looking for you, boy. Why don’t you go find them?”
Allen lowered his innocence a little and looked towards the window at the destroyed street that Tyki had been looking at a moment ago. Taking this chance, Tyki grabbed the innocence and his other arm and bound them behind his back, looking into the frightened face of the Exorcist he had in his arms who had begun to struggle immediately. Tyki stopped his protests with a rough kiss that would be his last indulgence with this Exorcist before he had to let it all fade away. “That was a suggestion that you leave, boy. I’m letting you go now, but next time it won’t be so easy for me to just let you go…remember that…”
The smaller body was still and Tyki held him a bit more loosely, finding with a bit of relief that he wasn’t going to struggle anymore. Tyki took one hand and wiped one of Allen’s wet cheeks and sighed as he asked, “You’re…letting me…?”
“Yes. I am.” He shoved Allen away and he stumbled before falling, his legs and lower half still not yet recovered from Tyki’s attentions to it before. It was a moment before Allen got up and slowly went to his clothes. He redressed in silence and after one last look, he went down the hallway, limping a little as he tried to hurry to go find his friends. Tyki listened until the footsteps faded away and he leaned against the wall. He slid down until he was sitting against it and he dipped his head, thinking. Heavier, but still lighter footsteps came into the room a moment later. The Earl stood in front of Tyki with an unusually quiet Lero in his hands. Without looking up, Tyki knew it was him just by the footsteps. The Earl was always around and always watching them. He laughed out, “I guess I’m in trouble.”
The Earl was quiet for a little while and the silence was agony to Tyki. If he didn’t forgive Tyki, then he would no longer be allowed to be under his protection and would no longer be a part of the family that was the Noah. That hurt more than anything. “Tyki. Love isn’t as strong as family ties…Do you understand this?”
Tyki was quiet, wondering what he meant by love, but he nodded. He had heard something along those lines, like maybe blood is thicker than water. “I don’t love that Exorcist. You have it wrong, Earl. I don’t know what I was doing with him.”
“Ah. I suppose.” His tone was pleasant, but he was calculating. “Come Tyki. Rhode failed to get the Innocence by herself. We’ll have to recalculate what we’re going to do…”
Tyki stood and looked around the room again before looking to the Earl. “What is my punishment?”
The Earl only turned and began walking down the hall, making Tyki follow him to hear his soft voice. “You will live with the knowledge that you have failed this family as a Noah. We are against the Exorcists. If you fail to forget that Tyki…”
“Kill me if I do.” Tyki interrupted him. It wasn’t what the Earl had in mind, but it was what Tyki wanted. The pain of going against his family was nothing compared to what he felt with hurting and letting the Exorcist Allen Walker leave like that.
The Earl sighed. “I think tonight, we’ll have jasmine tea before dinner. How does that sound Tyki?”
The Noah knew that he had listened, but just chose not to answer. It was fine with Tyki, and since his favorite had always been Rhode, it made no difference to Tyki how the Earl felt about him. In the time that it would be until he next saw Allen Walker, though, he would prepare himself to face him again. This time, there would be no slip-ups and he would kill him. Without hesitation, and without looking back on the path he chose. There was one question he wanted to ask though; would he have the strength to do it?
I hope you all like it (whoever reads it XD)
~~~
Tyki lay under a tree, staring at the branches stirring softly above him. Allen is alive…Allen is alive…How could Allen be alive? Tyki had had his tease bite into his heart, which was an internal wound that could kill any human. Was Allen Walker just some super being? Did he possess powers greater than the Noah, or even the Millennium Earl? He grit his teeth and covered his eyes with his arm. “No, that can’t be. What kind of an exorcist could be stronger than we Noah, or the Earl?”
“Yo, Tyki.” Road called as she came up to him, Lero floating alongside her. He sat up and greeted her similarly. She had an impish smile on her face. “The Earl wants us to go to London.”
Tyki gave her a questioning look and propped himself up on his knees and looked out over the hills of the Japanese countryside they were staying in for the time being. “Why? Isn’t Cross supposed to be here? And what about the Ark?”
Road smiled. “He thinks he has an idea of where the Heart is…”
“In London?”
She nodded and turned, grabbing Lero. He let out a little squeal as she gruffly opened him and used him to shade herself from the sun. “I suppose he thinks that getting to the heart will help speed things along…”
Tyki looked over at her and sighed, getting up to follow her. He asked, “What about Jasdero and David? Are they staying to take care of the exorcists?”
“Yup…” Road replied and smiled at him. “He’s sending us to London.”
Tyki thought it was strange. With the Ark being in such unstable condition, wouldn’t the Earl want them both here? Or at least Road or Tyki alongside Jasdero and David? He shook his head. “I don’t see why he wants us both to go. I mean, most of those damned exorcists will be flocking around Asia trying to find Cross.”
Lero piped up then with, “He doesn’t think so, Lero. The Earl feels that the exorcists will have this news as well, and wants you to be prepared, Lero.”
Tyki huffed slightly. “Well, how nice of him. When do we leave, Road?”
“He wanted us in London yesterday when we talked.” Road giggled and continued walking.
There wasn’t anything Tyki could do but go with Road to London. Though his head was clambering still for some reason as to how Allen could have lived through the extremities he had put his body under. Tyki hated this feeling. It was like someone had taken that relief he had had when he knew Allen was dead, and yanked it away suddenly like taking a gift from a child. Somehow, he had had a feeling that it was only temporary anyways. Tyki had an unfamiliar pull that replaced the force that wanted Allen dead. When he “died” so to speak, the pull grew stronger until he wasn’t sure he could hardly bear it anymore. What made it worse, was knowing that Allen may be there in London, waiting for them so to speak.
“Tyki…you’re quiet.” Road noted as they stepped out onto the cobblestone road.
“Just thinking.” He replied and pulled off his top hat and then pulled out his hair, letting his curls fall around his face. “I’ll head North and you’ll head South then, Road?” When she nodded he replied with one nod of his own then let himself turn ‘white’, where he pulled on his glasses and lit a cigarette. “Then we’ll meet back in a few hours and go East and West unless we find anything before then.”
As Road turned South, Tyki looked around at the people. There were Akuma everywhere, mostly level ones. Their blind devotion border lined stupidity at times, though they were useful. Some of them were smart enough to not really bring attention to Tyki himself, which was a good thing for the moment, even though the Exorcists would recognize him right away. All they did to acknowledge him was to turn their eyes in his direction for a brief moment, then look away again. I guess for now…we’ll search for the innocence…and maybe those Exorcists… Tyki thought, and a feral grin came across his face, his features stretching. He smiled through his fingers as he covered his face to hide this strange look from any humans wandering amongst the Akumas. If I see you, Allen Walker, I am going to kill you.
~~~
There wasn’t much to London but the people, who were everywhere. There had been a strange phenomenon where suddenly, a boom in population occurred, and people began appearing who had the same form and look as those who had died. Many children, mothers, fathers, grandparents, and even newborns were with their families, going out for walks and shopping together. Tyki didn’t know all the details himself, but he had been to London once before, and he never remembered it being this crowded. The busy streets didn’t strike him as odd, so much as the people he saw. The people seemed to have a twin. Each person had a mirrored image of himself or herself that went about their own business, alongside the original. The only people that didn’t seem to have twins, were the Akuma themselves, who continued to almost ignore Tyki as he walked the streets.
No matter how queer this city had become, Tyki continued his search, but wielded no results. After hours of searching, he returned to find Road at their meeting point. “Have you seen anything Road?”
She shook her head and smiled. “But I think the Exorcists are here…”
Tyki glanced around, half expecting to see them walking nearby. “Already? What makes you say that?”
“Some of the Akuma told me they thought they saw some people dressed in dark jackets. They didn’t see the emblems well, but they’re positive they’re here.” She turned toward the East, smiling at him. Tyki wondered why the Akuma hadn’t notified him as well, but what she said next caught his attention. “Also, they thought they saw a white haired boy with them…”
From Road’s sinister look, Tyki could see that she was as anxious to get at Allen as he was. He grinned, and it almost turned into a sneer. “If you see him Road, don’t kill him. That is my job…”
~~~
“It was your job…” She reminded him then began walking along. “It’s fine. If you don’t kill him first, then I guess I’ll get to see his sad face when he sees all his friends are dead…”
He turned and headed West. The sun was beginning to set, and he didn’t know how much longer they were going to search, but hopefully, they’d find the Heart. Or at least the Exorcists. He lit a cigarette and he looked about him at the humans. Such small, insignificant creatures compared to the Noah. They possessed nothing, no powers, no abilities of their own really. All they had was their love, and their lives. The Noah’s eyes softened a little. He wished everything was that simple. The power he had was amazing, but this feeling he felt when around an Exorcist, when hew as around the innocence, it all made him sick. Tyki was controlled by his instinct to kill these pathetic beings to the point that he almost no longer had the power to control himself anymore. He hated it.
Tyki gasped when a surge of power surfaced in him, and every fiber of his being become alive with the power he possessed. The Tease, which were contained in his own body through the Earl’s power and his own, squirmed excitedly in his hands, making them twitch and tingle. Using his willpower, Tyki had the feelings sink down into him and diminish slowly until it was only a buzz in the back of his mind. He frowned as he looked around, realizing that Exorcists were very close now. Tyki ducked back into the awning of the shop and waited a minute, wondering if they were so close he’d see them walk by. Time went by, and nothing happened. Wondering if it was just a jumpy feeling he had from being on edge and thinking about the Exorcists a little more than needed.
He gasped again and this time, it was harder keeping that feeling down. Tyki dropped his cigarette and glared at the crowd again, searching for some sign of what was the cause of his discomfort. The urge to kill buzzed through him and his eyes slanted again. What is causing me to burn so much inside? It was as if some angry monster inside of him was clawing to get out. There was a moment of silent suffering as Tyki watched the crowd more closely now and waited out the raging feelings. Tyki saw something out of the corner of his eye and looked towards his right, across the cobblestone street. At first, it seemed lost in the crowd, but then he saw it. A head of white hair, shorter than most of the adults walking by. He was standing there, and whenever the crowd thinned out, he saw a group in black coats, all staring at what the young boy with white hair was staring at. Tyki Mikk frowned a moment then gave a smirk, an almost inviting one, to the boy. It seems I will get to kill you after all, Allen Walker, he thought and took a few steps out into the sunlight and turned for an alleyway.
There was shouting behind him, and Allen’s name rang out amongst the commotion. Tyki decided if he didn’t get running soon, he would be hit from behind, so he began to run along the ground before climbing the air. He used it as a staircase and ran up to the wall of a building, disappearing through it to take shelter inside. Allen would have been close enough to see him just as he was vanishing through the wall, so he expected him to appear in a moment. Taking a little bit of time, he looked around the room he was in. It looked like it hadn’t been used in a long time. An abandoned dresser lay on its side with a few books and garments scattered around it on the floor. Off to the corner was a bed with old and slightly tattered sheets. He walked over towards it, and then went to a window on the other side of the room, one that was facing the street. He could see the Akuma crowding around the Exorcists in the street, and so began a lot of banging and crashing. Tyki couldn’t see Allen among them.
“Tyki Mikk…” The Noah turned and saw Allen standing by the other window. Tyki took a moment to take in how different Allen was, including his Innocence. He hadn’t noticed before how much Allen’s innocence had changed because it hadn’t been invocated. His left hand was more elegantly elongated, with long and slender fingers. The other had a more clownish appearance, like a cartoon-like glove had been placed on it. Around his shoulders, he had a cape that met at a mask that he had pulled over his face. He looked just like the name the Earl had said it possessed. ‘The Crowned Clown’. The mask concealed most of his face, but the way he was frowning showed he was in a very grim mood.
“Exorcist Allen Walker.” Tyki greeted him back and smiled. “It seems like destiny, don’t you think? First you strip a Noah to his underwear playing cards, then we meet again. Twice.”
Allen pulled his hood off to reveal his scar along his left eye had grown longer and seemed to drip down his chin. “It’s not really destiny. I’ve stripped many men to their underwear when playing cards.”
Tyki chuckled and walked over to the bed, hearing Allen shift as he watched him. “But did you ever meet them again? Oh my, what a mean thing to say…and your innocence,” He paused and at the bed, he glanced towards the Exorcists’ left arm. He gave an evil grin as he murmured, “I’m was surprised when the Earl told me it, and you, survived. I’m pretty sure I destroyed that arm.”
This time, Allen smiled right back, a cheeky but angry sort of grin that made Tyki shiver with revulsion, and also with anticipation. He was ready to wipe that smirk off of his lips and destroy him completely this time, and make sure nothing was left of him or that innocence of his. The Exorcist lifted his left hand and said, “Well it seems you didn’t. It’s right here, after all…”
It was a long pause before Tyki let his ‘white’ side disappear and pulled his dark hair back. “I see. Well then, it looks like you and I are going to fight again. The look in your eyes doesn’t tell me much, but I know you’re not happy…”
Allen opened his mouth to say something, but didn’t. He swallowed his words and ran for Tyki, his voice ringing and crying out, “Clown Belt!”
Dozens of straps flew out and grabbed Tyki to hold him as Allen came barreling towards him, but as Allen hit and they collided into the wall, he sent them right through it into the next room. Tyki wasn’t injured yet; he had his shield up and was holding against Allen’s arm with all he had. Growling, he pushed Allen and sent him back far enough to give him time to bring out his Tease. He called them out, and felt them slither out of his body, from his arms up to his shoulders, and when they were out, he sent them after Allen. They went for the Exorcist, letting out a chattering scream as they all swarmed to him. As they hit, they were immediately shredded to nothing. The cloak around Allen’s shoulders had grown in size and completely enveloped him in order to ward off the danger to him. Tyki took his chance and ran for him, taking a few steps on the air to build a bit of height and maybe catch him from up above, but Allen was quick and had him blocked. “I don’t hate you boy. I have no reason to hate you... What are you thinking?”
Allen gritted his teeth and using his clown belt, he whirled Tyki around and let him go, sending him into another wall, which he passed through. He ended up in the hallway of the upper floor of the building. It was hardly a blow that could have kept Tyki off of his feet and since he had kept himself from being knocked into a wall, he had only a few bumps. Allen soon appeared in the hallway after him and watched him steadily. “That’s right, you can pass through objects at will…”
“Had you almost forgotten, boy?” Tyki asked and sent another flurry of Tease at him. A resounding scream echoed as they were slashed like the previous cluster. “I have the privilege to touch anything in this world that I choose…but your innocence is different. It doesn’t apply to ‘this world’ so I can’t choose to avoid it. It’s annoying.” Tyki charged at him and watched as he leapt up and swirled in the air, his Innocence shining as he prepared to use it. Tyki’s Tease came out again and charged for Allen, becoming destroyed for a third time by Allen’s Innocence. My Tease won’t work on him. Not unless they get a chance like before, He thought as he stood opposite of Allen, and I have a feeling that won’t happen a second time. Tyki passed into another room that was much larger than the others, and with a lounging sofa and a few overturned chairs it could have been a family room at one time. He stood to one side of the place in the wall he had come through and waited. In a moment, Allen came charging through, his Crowned Clown using force to break down the wall.
Tyki took the chance and in one swift motion, reached up and took Allen’s arms both into a hold with his star shaped shields, holding them in place tightly by connecting the two crooks on each together. They made a makeshift set of handcuffs and Tyki grinned as the Exorcist struggled. His Innocence was on the side of the shield where it wouldn’t harm Tyki, and it seemed that for now, Allen Walker was in no position to really use much strength, yet it seemed odd to Tyki. He should have gotten stronger with his upgrade of his innocence, so why wasn’t he working harder to get away?
A pulse ran through him and he felt pressured again, pressured and pushed to kill the boy he had a hold of. It should have been easy enough to release and quickly kill this boy, but something pulled him to a different place, and made him think a moment. Allen continued to struggle and push against Tyki’s hold on him, but he could only move so much. His strength was great, but in this uncomfortable position that didn’t allow much movement, he only jerked Tyki back and forth a little. The Noah pressed the niches of the shields together and a small sound emitted from Allen. “Come on Exorcist, tell me what you’re thinking…” Tyki said in his ear. Allen jerked away and unable to help but smile, Tyki charged forward with Allen, planning to smash him into a wall, but Allen did some quick thinking. He lifted his feet just beforehand and as his feet hit, he kicked off and they both rebounded back, knocking over a chair and almost hitting the sofa. After they both stumbled a moment, Tyki landed on top of Allen, his taller and slightly heavier body pressing him into the floor.
On top of Allen, Tyki held him tightly and leaned over, chuckling into his ear. “It feels like you’re not really trying, Walker…”
Again, he jerked away and Tyki leaned in further, licking his ear. The smaller body shuddered and it wasn’t one of revulsion or fear, for Allen’s legs squirmed ever so slightly when he did that. Tyki’s eyes glinted as he had an idea. He pulled Allen up and brought him over to the sofa, laying him gruffly on his stomach. Using skillful hands, he separated the two shields and pressed Allen’s hands into the small of his back using the flat side of one. The Exorcist let out a discomforted sound and squirmed again. At the moment, he wasn’t sure what to think of Tyki’s actions. The Noah made the shield disappear and using his power, he sunk his hand into Allen’s body slowly, relishing the noises Allen made in his uneasiness of being touched on the inside. He took the time to explore the inside of Allen’s body, feeling along his lower half. From the bottom of his ribcage, he felt along down to his intestines and through his reproductive organs, back up to his ribcage and then his lungs, which made Allen cough slightly as Tyki passed through one of them. Allen began panting as he lingered there in his chest. “W-What are you doing? Aren’t you going to kill me?”
Tyki’s heart pounded at the mention of killing Allen, and his eyes slanted as he resisted the urge to crush the lung his hand was inside. “Sure enough, but I’d thought I would play with you a little. It’s so sad though, that you couldn’t fight me…”
Allen stopped panting and his breath calmed a little. Tyki pulled his hand out and thought a moment of what he could do next with the young boy in front of him. Sure enough, a courageous person deserved the death that he had tried to give Allen before, but he didn’t feel like he could give him that kind of a death again. A strange tightness in his chest at the thought made him wonder if he could do it at all. Such nonsense! I should be able to kill this insignificant worm, Tyki thought, plunging his hand into his chest one more time and feeling for the pumping organ that was his heart. He wrapped his hand around it, but immediately pulled back again, as if burned.
“Your…Innocence repaired your heart?” Tyki muttered in disgust. “The Earl was right, your innocence isn’t normal…”
Allen took advantage of Tyki’s surprise and shoved himself back and because Tyki had stopped using the shields as cuffs on Allen’s wrists, he was flown back in his surprise. Allen rounded on him with his innocence and would have struck, had Tyki not had one shield ready to block him. The force that Allen struck with made the floorboards crack and break a little. “I won’t ever let you touch my heart again, Tyki Mikk.”
The look of surprise was gone from Tyki’s face and it was replaced with a leering look as he steadied himself with the hand that had no shield up and pushed up, barely forcing Allen back. “You make such intimate words Allen.” He said with a smile and relaxed back a little, then shot his hand up and attacked Allen with a flurry of Tease. He didn’t have time to fight them off and was hit with a few. They sunk into his skin as he stumbled back in surprise. Before they could begin eating at Allen’s insides, Tyki stepped up and watched as the Tease slithered out of him in shreds. “Your Innocence really protects you.”
Allen nodded. “I am connected to it body and soul. It won’t let you or your Tease hurt me.”
Nodding, Tyki stepped forward, walking to him in long and timed strides. Allen tensed slightly, but realized that he was in no danger, for the moment. He knew that if Tyki got any closer, he could attempt something that wouldn’t be blocked well, but he took the chance. Tyki stepped up close to him and grinned down at him. “I suppose you’re lucky then, boy.”
Allen didn’t flinch, answer, or move. He continued to stare up at Tyki and watch his every move out of the corners of his eyes while he stared into Tyki’s. Allen’s eyes twitched towards one of Tyki’s hands that moved up and reached for his face, letting it caress him. The soft feel of the glove made Allen shiver and before he could relax any, he backed up a bit. “Don’t touch me.”
“Oh ho!” Tyki chuckled and moved closer, bringing up his left hand as the shield materialized and he had the point against Allen’s belly, digging in a little. “Sensitive are we? Well let me indulge myself, boy. I want to look at you a minute.”
With a wolfish grin on his face, Tyki reached up with his right hand, pausing when Allen’s Innocence pointed against his own stomach. He looked down and his grin turned to an amused smile. Allen was still glaring as he muttered, “Just so we’re even…”
“Yes. Best make it fair…” Tyki agreed then continued moving his hand up to the cheek of the Exorcist he had before him. There was a light sound in the back of Tyki’s throat as he made that feeling submit inside of him again. Couldn’t it just leave him alone for more than a minute? All he wanted to do, was play with him a little before he really tried to kill him, was that so hard? Tyki traced the scar from Allen’s forehead down to his cheek. “A cursed life, huh? I feel a little sorry for you, Exorcist.”
The boy jerked his head away and looked towards the wall. “It’s nothing. I’ve become accustomed to it.”
While Allen’s face didn’t change, his tone sounded sad. Tyki shook his head and put a heavy hand on his shoulder, forcing him to sit down on the couch as he leaned over him. Instantly on guard again, Allen pressed his Innocence further into his stomach as a warning, but Tyki paid it no mind. He used both hands, letting the shields fall away as he did, and pulled Allen’s up above his head, forcing him to lay back on the small couch. Realizing that he had let Tyki get the upper hand, he started to struggle, but Tyki just made his hands tighter. Bringing his legs up to maybe kick him away, he was surprised when they passed right through him. Since his legs had no Innocence attached to them, they could go right through him and they did. Tyki rested one knee on the sofa and looked down at the boy. He was under the control of the power bestowed by Noah again. That same power that urged him to kill the Exorcist, and his phony ideas, so his phony God could rot away and the stories that came with him could die forever. He scrutinized the boy underneath him and grabbed his chin gruffly, turning his face from one side to another. Allen huffed and tried jerking his chin away. “W-What are you doing?”
Tyki was quiet a minute, then he took hold of Allen’s knee and pushed it away from him, making himself solid against Allen’s body again in between his legs. He pressed close, his and Allen’s noses almost touching. “I’m going to kill you, Exorcist. First, though, I’m going to really disgrace you. I’ll make you so unrecognizable, your dear friends won’t be able to tell who you are.”
While he kept a hand on Allen’s, he used his free one to run it up his leg. The young man jumped and tried jerking his leg away, but Tyki gripped it hard to force him to stop. When it stopped for a moment, he slid it up the rest of the way to his hip and squeezed gently. Instantly, Allen’s body shuddered and he dipped his head back. His cheeks blushed a little in embarrassment, or maybe shame. Tyki grinned as he saw how this humiliated him and he moved his hand up further, moving up to his chest, where he stroked him through the fabric. Another tremor ran through the body underneath him and he smiled even more. “Do you like that, boy?”
“N-No!” Allen clamped his legs together hard to hopefully pin Tyki in his sides with his knees, but he missed again as Tyki let them pass through his body. When they collided together, Allen cringed from the pain that shot through them both and they were useless to him at the moment. Not wanting to give up, he pulled and jerked on his hands, but Tyki had thought ahead and for double measure, he brought up one of his shields from his wrist and used the niche of the star shape to bind him there. Tyki’s fingers worked fast at unbuttoning the coat that bore the mark of the Exorcist and opened it up so his shirt underneath was exposed. It was tucked into the heavy and bulky belt that Allen wore, so he undid the buckle and pulled the shirt up, running his hand along the hot body he had in his hands. Another shiver welcomed his hands.
“You are far too sensitive, boy,” Tyki noted and stroked a nipple with his gloved hand. Allen’s lower half squirmed on the couch and the sight made Tyki growl under his breath. Under his weight and his hand, Allen looked helpless. He looked so fragile and almost breakable; it was a sad sight for such a great Exorcist as Allen to be in a position like this one. Tyki leaned in, pressing his hips into Allen’s and he was surprised that he moaned under his breath from the pleasure he received from such a small movement. He experimentally pressed more and he shivered this time. Tyki sighed and whispered, “Just…how far do I have to go until you’re broken?”
Allen stopped and looked up at the Noah above him. “W-What?”
Tyki leaned in even further and pressed his lips experimentally to Allen’s. There was an immediate struggle from Allen, but Tyki gripped his chin and held him in place. The taste of Allen’s lips was sweet, and they felt soft against his own. Does the rest of him feel this soft? He pulled back and used his teeth to pull the glove off of his free hand before tossing it aside and pressing his hand to Allen’s chest. His skin was hot, and he shivered when their skin made contact. It was softer than he expected. His hand traveled around, down to his stomach and along his side until it came to the waistband of his pants. He slid his fingertips down a little, along his hips until he felt Allen buck his hips at the touch. Tyki gripped hard as Allen struggled more and he looked up to his face to find pure hatred in his eyes. The stare made him shiver and he gave a grin, but it was halfhearted. “Do you hate me boy?”
Placing one knee on Allen’s stomach to keep him from moving his hips, he slid his fingers down into his pants, sliding his hand along to his front, where he began touching and fondling him in ways that he didn’t think the Exorcist would have ever thought someone else would do. Allen struggled more, but Tyki just held him down more. As Tyki began to gently rub him more and let his fingers glide along the sensitive areas of the young teen’s groin, the body relaxed under him and more labored breaths left Allen’s lungs. Watching him grow in his excitement made Tyki feel the same and instead of putting the intent of lustful torture into it, he was beginning to want him. He wanted this Exorcist now as he had never wanted another. This small and strong, but seemingly frail boy was exciting him without even trying to. Tyki closed in again for a kiss and he pulled Allen’s pants down to his thighs, exposing his penis that was slowly growing erect. While taking him into his hand again and stroking, Tyki took his hand back and quickly undid his own, failing to notice that Allen’s innocence had deactivated and his legs were now limp above his head. Even if Allen had quit struggling for the moment, Tyki took his hands again and held them tightly while he made a trail of kisses and licks down his chest, pulling the shirt up high to have more access to the pale skin he saw before him.
A moan from Allen surprised them both and Tyki’s head lifted up a minute, eyes wide as he stared through strands of black hair at the blue eyes that looked back at him through strands of white. Both of them were breathing heavily as they stared, unsure of what to think about that small sound that had escaped. It gave them both a moment to reassess what they were doing, and how they were beginning to feel about the whole thing. Tyki had imagined it, as a bit of fun before he killed Allen, and he didn’t think that any of this would affect him in any way but pleasing that side of him where Noah’s pleasure rang out in triumph in his head over the death of an Exorcist. There was too much enjoyment for the human side of him. It felt too good. Tyki took away one of his hands and shoved Allen’s pants down gruffly now and he earned a confused look from Allen Walker as he pulled his own down soon after. Immediately, he was on Allen, kissing him and fondling him more gruffly. This earned renewed struggles from the teen, but Tyki ignored them as he gripped hard. He bit Allen’s neck, then went to his ear and hissed, “I…will make you beg for mercy, boy…I will make you pay for thinking you could destroy me!”
Instantly, he flipped him over and held him down, rubbing his hips into his bottom while growling under his breath. Nothing but hate and rage coursed through him as he pressed him into the couch; his grip was probably leaving bruises at this point. Allen was trying to hide the sounds he was making, and his half-moans and half-cries of pain hung in the air as Tyki continued to molest him. Tyki thought Allen was done fighting since he wasn’t really struggling a lot. Either he had given up, or he was beginning to enjoy himself. A brief thought crossed his mind and he pulled back, wetting a finger with his saliva before running it down to Allen’s puckered entrance. He swirled around it a moment to let Allen get the idea, and was greeted with a gasp and a sharp and hoarse cry of, “N-No!”
Tyki covered his mouth with the gloved hand and he slid the finger of the other inside him, coaxing out a small shriek from Allen. He grimaced at the strange sensation of this new action. In his ‘white’ form, Tyki had heard of men doing this together behind closed doors from the various people he was around every day and he had also heard of the whores in the brothels letting men do it to them as well. Personally, the idea hadn’t been too appealing to him so he had never tried it. Now, though, the action seemed perfect to humiliate the Exorcist he had in his hands. After sliding one finger in and out of him, Tyki added another and there was a shiver throughout Allen’s body. He whimpered against Tyki’s fingers and almost rocked his hips, but stopped and Tyki felt his jaw tighten as if to grit his teeth. “If you like it just say so…” He whispered to him with a chuckle as he reached deep inside and prodded him in a place that made his hips jump and his whole body jolt. Tyki himself moaned at the sight and kept pressing Allen there, listening to the muffled moans crescendo and watching as the little body jerked and shake at the mercy of his fingers.
The Noah stopped pressing into him and he watched a minute, panting as he waited to see what Allen would do. More muffled whimpers made their way to his ears and Allen shook with what might have been the effort to not rock his hips and ask for more. Tyki had a feeling that this was what it was and he grinned. He positioned himself on the couch behind him and after adding a little saliva to his cock so it would go in easier and more comfortably for him, he lined up and let Allen know his intention by rubbing himself around the puckered skin again. The Exorcist jerked his head in an attempt to turn, but Tyki grasped his neck and forced it ahead. There was a moment of silence while they both readied themselves for what was to come and then Tyki slid inside.
Allen screamed and his legs thrashed, but Tyki cut him off by squeezing his throat and cutting away most of the air to his vocal cords. Light and airy sounds replaced the screaming as Tyki kept his grip, and let his body soak in the explosive pleasure that had shot through his groin and sent pulses to his brain, making his head spin. Immediately, he rocked his hips and moaned softly as the hand that wasn’t around Allen’s neck steadied his hips and kept him in place while he explored this new feeling.
Experimentally, he slid himself back and then pushed back in again. Allen twitched and choked out a little yelp before a small groan escaped him. How humiliating it must be, to feel the pain but enjoy it all the same… Tyki thought before he pulled out even further than before and pressed on again, pushing deep into him until that same jolting movement came from Allen. He rotated his hips and let his hand relax on Allen’s throat a minute, listening to him as he moaned and whimpered. Very subtly, Tyki could feel the others muscular buttocks rubbing him back, urging for more of that rotation. He gripped Allen’s neck again and pulled his head up, biting into his shoulder as he pressed into him firmly. As Allen bit back a pleasurable cry, Tyki chuckled into his ear. “Do you really enjoy this Allen Walker? Who knew there were any queers in the Black Order…”
Allen tried turning his head away, but Tyki made him keep it up and he continued digging his teeth into his shoulder, one hand reaching forward to play with his cock a little. Allen’s taut body was stretched out in this position, so that his muscles were outlined well and as he gently pulled away from Allen’s cock, he traced his fingers along he planes of the Exorcist’s skin, feeling the way his muscles rolled as his chest heaved, how they twitched as his delicate touch passed over them. The muscles in his jaw were tight and Tyki chuckled as he moved to his ear to whisper something to him, when he felt something wet on his hand. The smile disappeared from his face and a curious one took hold. He looked at Allen and saw that his eyes were closed and tears were falling, sliding down the scar on his cheek to his hand. He was whimpering and whispering something against Tyki’s hand that was on his throat and with a shred of mercy, he loosened it to hear him. “P-Please…just stop…end it…”
Tyki stopped holding him so tightly and let him rest gently in his arms. That pleading tone hit him and he felt a tugging feeling at his heart. A painful and sympathetic feeling that the Noah in him immediately tried to quell, but in order to figure out what it was, he forced himself to keep a hold of it. Was it sympathy, or maybe just his human side trying to tell him that this was wrong? He didn’t know. Softly, he lowered Allen to the couch and let him weep there on the moth-eaten cushions. Tyki didn’t hold onto Allen anymore, but he kept his hand on his back lightly for his own safety; in case Allen decided to fight back once more. Very gently, he began rocking his hips again, moving slowly instead of pounding into him as he had planned before. He sighed as he began moving, watching as Allen wept on the cushions, a moan making it’s way past his lips every now and again. Still moving his hips, he leaned forward and pressed his face into the small of Allen’s back, cradling him almost as his hands slid along the lean arms and then along his pecks, his fingers thumbing the small nipples as he went. He remembered that he still had one glove on and he pulled it off quickly before tossing it aside.
The young boy in his arms gripped the cushions and let Tyki finish up inside of him. He rocked his hips back and moaned in turn to the teasing way Tyki traced his fingers over him and slid in and out of him. Allen had thrown away his shame at this point, seeing as it did no good in this position where he didn’t know whether to fight back, or to hold onto something for dear life in preparation of his climax. They both became locked in the embrace of each other so subtly, they didn’t notice. Pushing and thrusting against each other more and more, Allen’s soft cries for more depth, and Tyki’s strong and easy comply each time seemed to make them meld together and form together a being made up of weaknesses, lust, passion, and a hint of hatred that they felt for one another.
It intensified until Tyki didn’t know if he could handle it anymore. His inner demons, human and Noah, were both fighting in his head like split personalities and they confused him to where he didn’t know what to do anymore. More on instinct than anything, Tyki continued moving in Allen, leaving soft kisses and taking small bites of his skin along his back to bring out more sounds from him. When suddenly, Allen’s hips bucked and he suddenly came without warning. As the teens lower half tightened, Tyki jumped as a wave flooded through him and he was thrusting more and more, working towards his own climax, which came soon after. It was a more alleviating and weightless experience than any time he had been with a woman, and he leaned forward, catching himself with the back of the couch before he could fall on top of Allen. He panted, staring down at the body underneath him, which wasn’t moving. Tyki reached out and brushed a strand of hair away, finding that Allen had passed out upon climaxing.
His cold fingertips brushed the flushed cheek and felt it’s warmth. He marveled at how the scar on his face didn’t hinder his looks, or the expressions he wore. Tyki sighed and pulled back, running his fingers through his hair to pull it back from his sweating face. Gently, he pulled out of Allen and laid him on his side, wincing when he saw the blood from when he first forced himself inside of him. He was still wearing his suit jacket, so he reached into the pocket of it and pulled out one of his handkerchiefs, using it to mop up Allen first and then himself. Since he would have no use for the small cloth anymore, he tossed it into a corner and pulled on his pants, throwing the Black Order jacket over Allen so he wouldn’t be cold after all that. Lighting a cigarette, he took one long drag and let the smoke drift from his mouth as he whispered, “The Earl’s gonna kill me.”
There was no real noise anywhere in that room. Allen’s breathing, the light hissing sound Tyki’s cigarette made ever drag he took on it, and the sounds from the street outside of people talking curiously were the only things that could be heard in that time that Tyki sat there, waiting. Idly, he wondered where the fight had traveled to and thought maybe it had made its way down the road to where they couldn’t hear it anymore. He got up and went to the window to find the street in ruins, but no Exorcists, akuma, or Road in sight. They had all gone somewhere else to fight their battle. Tyki felt relieved, knowing he wouldn’t live this down if an akuma or another Exorcist had come crashing through the wall by mistake. The Earl would know though. He would know just by looking at Tyki and he would surely punish him for such a thing. To torture the poor boy before death in the way he did was disgusting in itself to the Earl, but to show mercy and even feel the way he did made it even worse.
He turned around and looked at the sleeping form under the cloak and sighed with a whisper, “I must be insane…”
Glancing to the side, he threw his cigarette and stepped on it to put it out. He heard Allen stir on the couch and he looked up with only his eyes and saw him wincing as he sat up, then watched as he looked around and spotted Tyki. Even at the distance he was at, Tyki could still see the shame and then the rage build up in his face. It was only a moment before Tyki had to avert his eyes. He looked at the floor, trying to keep a smug look about him, but he knew his face would give it away; at least, until he could compose himself enough to look at him with confidence and not regret. There was another moment of silence between them, and then Allen began gathering his clothes to put them on and cover his naked body. Tyki lifted his head and looked out the window, over the street where people were picking through the rubble and the police were trying to pull them all back to clear the street. “I wonder if your friends have found the Innocence yet, boy. Their fight with Rhode and the akuma has moved elsewhere. I wonder if they’re alright…and if they think you’re…”
Tyki paused. He turned and smiled at Allen’s anti-akuma weapon that was inches from his head. Allen had gotten up and ran over, activating it in the process. He had heard Allen’s footsteps and known what was coming, but what he didn’t expect was that he was hesitating killing him. The Exorcist was breathing heavily, out of anger, and his legs were shaking. It didn’t surprise Tyki, since he had handled him pretty roughly before. Allen glared out at him as he pushed the Innocence forward a little, whispering, “You bastard…”
Tyki smiled more. “Are you hesitating, boy? Why?”
Allen’s eyes filled quickly with tears and he dropped his head, but his arm was still raised, and the Innocence shook with the energy it was building up, getting ready for the slightest hint from it’s master that it wanted to kill this Noah. “Y-You’re human…”
“I’m also your enemy…”
“I know that!” Allen yelled and glared up at him.
“I raped you…”
Allen moved his arm forward, the fingers splaying out on either side of Tyki’s head in a way that caged him in. “I know that too! Just…shut up…”
Tyki didn’t say another word. He watched the young boy he had violated so horribly and his heart hurt. That’s what that was. That strange tugging feeling he felt that fought against his inner Noah so strongly was something in his human side. It wasn’t pity. It wasn’t sympathy. It was some other feeling that Tyki still had yet to figure out and even now, it was fighting the Noah inside him for control. Whatever it was, it hurt his heart and he knew that torturing this boy caused it. Tyki’s fingers itched with that feeling of wanting to kill and to destroy the innocence he faced now but he made himself have control. He didn’t want to kill this boy. Allen looked back up at him, tears still streaming down his face as he stared at Tyki, as if to make some sense of this as well. Pulling his innocence back just enough to see his face better, he asked, “Why didn’t you kill me?”
Tyki sighed. “I don’t know.”
Allen paused a moment and then asked, “Why don’t you kill me now?”
“I don’t know.” That seemed to be the only answer he could give to Allen’s questions. Tyki didn’t know, and he wasn’t sure if he would in time. All he knew was he had to rid himself of this feeling before it altered him so much that he wouldn’t know himself anymore. “You’re friends are probably looking for you, boy. Why don’t you go find them?”
Allen lowered his innocence a little and looked towards the window at the destroyed street that Tyki had been looking at a moment ago. Taking this chance, Tyki grabbed the innocence and his other arm and bound them behind his back, looking into the frightened face of the Exorcist he had in his arms who had begun to struggle immediately. Tyki stopped his protests with a rough kiss that would be his last indulgence with this Exorcist before he had to let it all fade away. “That was a suggestion that you leave, boy. I’m letting you go now, but next time it won’t be so easy for me to just let you go…remember that…”
The smaller body was still and Tyki held him a bit more loosely, finding with a bit of relief that he wasn’t going to struggle anymore. Tyki took one hand and wiped one of Allen’s wet cheeks and sighed as he asked, “You’re…letting me…?”
“Yes. I am.” He shoved Allen away and he stumbled before falling, his legs and lower half still not yet recovered from Tyki’s attentions to it before. It was a moment before Allen got up and slowly went to his clothes. He redressed in silence and after one last look, he went down the hallway, limping a little as he tried to hurry to go find his friends. Tyki listened until the footsteps faded away and he leaned against the wall. He slid down until he was sitting against it and he dipped his head, thinking. Heavier, but still lighter footsteps came into the room a moment later. The Earl stood in front of Tyki with an unusually quiet Lero in his hands. Without looking up, Tyki knew it was him just by the footsteps. The Earl was always around and always watching them. He laughed out, “I guess I’m in trouble.”
The Earl was quiet for a little while and the silence was agony to Tyki. If he didn’t forgive Tyki, then he would no longer be allowed to be under his protection and would no longer be a part of the family that was the Noah. That hurt more than anything. “Tyki. Love isn’t as strong as family ties…Do you understand this?”
Tyki was quiet, wondering what he meant by love, but he nodded. He had heard something along those lines, like maybe blood is thicker than water. “I don’t love that Exorcist. You have it wrong, Earl. I don’t know what I was doing with him.”
“Ah. I suppose.” His tone was pleasant, but he was calculating. “Come Tyki. Rhode failed to get the Innocence by herself. We’ll have to recalculate what we’re going to do…”
Tyki stood and looked around the room again before looking to the Earl. “What is my punishment?”
The Earl only turned and began walking down the hall, making Tyki follow him to hear his soft voice. “You will live with the knowledge that you have failed this family as a Noah. We are against the Exorcists. If you fail to forget that Tyki…”
“Kill me if I do.” Tyki interrupted him. It wasn’t what the Earl had in mind, but it was what Tyki wanted. The pain of going against his family was nothing compared to what he felt with hurting and letting the Exorcist Allen Walker leave like that.
The Earl sighed. “I think tonight, we’ll have jasmine tea before dinner. How does that sound Tyki?”
The Noah knew that he had listened, but just chose not to answer. It was fine with Tyki, and since his favorite had always been Rhode, it made no difference to Tyki how the Earl felt about him. In the time that it would be until he next saw Allen Walker, though, he would prepare himself to face him again. This time, there would be no slip-ups and he would kill him. Without hesitation, and without looking back on the path he chose. There was one question he wanted to ask though; would he have the strength to do it?
