Against All Odds

Chapter 1

The Dreamer


Rhode Kamelot. Her dreams were much deeper than her childish exterior portrayed. Even her own family, which consisted of an odd assortment of brothers, sisters, and cousins, couldn't really tell what emotions truly brewed in her heart. She gained pleasure from hurting and killing humans, she treated them as if they were her toys, inferior beings who were foolish and corrupt, so why shouldn't they be? Yet she was still bored and constantly complained of having no one to play with, but that was only partly true. Rhode for all her whimsical and carefree attitude deeply longed for someone to be with her and not just anyone.

As she walked through the long empty halls of what she called home, the artificial sunlight lit the gray passages in a soft light that reminded her of twilight, her favorite time of day. After a few minutes walking she went to her room and collapsed on her bed and stared at the ceiling and thought about the boy she had come to care about.

She had her eyes on one boy who really had managed to catch her interest. The snowy white haired boy with eyes like polished platinum. He had the smile of saint and the scream of an angel. She had met him a few time in the past, the first time she treated him as just another of her toys, a rather cute toy but that made little difference at the time as she bolted his anti-akuma arm to the wall. Yet he got free and fought with a bright spirit which caused her to begin see him as more than a toy. He was so pure and innocent. Humans were supposed to be corrupt inferior beings and yet he seemed different to her.

She thought back to another of her fond memories and smiled, her first kissed with him. How cute the look of shock on his face was and how he didn't try to escape. She still loved teased him but it was out of affection now instead of malice. He smelled like a gentle breeze at sunrise, a soft lavender smell was the best she could do to describe it. However her favorite thing was the warmth of embracing him, it made her feel safe but at the same time defenseless, it gave her a nervous excitement that swelled up in her chest.

Her thoughts turned again, she thought of what he was, an exorcist. He killed the akuma to free their captive souls and recovered innocence to prevent the millennium earl from destroying the world. In short he considered the Earl and the akuma enemies. However she had to convince him she wasn't his enemy. Sure she could control the akuma but that didn't mean she had to.

Finally her eyes got heavy and closed as she thought of ways to make the boy she had grown to love, return her feelings. Allen Walker.
