AN:It was suppose to be done one day earlier but couldn't upload so oh well ^^'''. A short chapter for you all.

Chapter 3: A page into Kanda's File

".........and then the little girl hugged her mother happily before they walked home, happily hand in hand. The end." Allen ended the story off, closing his book softly with a gentle smile of his face as he gazed upon his daughter's face, forcing her already droopy eyes to stay open but failing nonetheless.

"Ally, it's time to close your eyes now. It's bedtime." Allen chuckled in amusement as his daughter's eyes widened a little at his words and started to put in more effort to stay awake.

"But I don't want to sleep. I want daddy still." the child mumbled, miserable due to her failed efforts and weak as the sleep monster has claimed her again for another night. Allen stroked her hair as if his daughter's hair was one of precious silk. He hummed a tune of a lullaby quietly by her ears. Upon hearing that, the child's face, from being miserably tired changed slowly to one who was enjoying a peaceful dream.

With a gentle kiss on the crown of her head, Allen slowly got off the bed and tiptoed to the door. He cracked opened the door, allowing minimal light to make its way into the room so as not to awaken the sleeping treasure. With one last look at his child, he closed the door as quietly as he could before making his way to the living room.

The beautiful strict looking woman with her multiple facial scars turned from the television towards the sound of footsteps nearing her from behind. One look at the newcomer and she smirked.

"Having a child really makes you such a gentle person." Klaud teased as Allen shrugged with the same expression he had when he entered the room, one of a proud father that had everything he could had asked for. He sat down and played with his fingers. Klaud continued to stare at the younger male, knowing what he was about to say but wishing he wouldn't as it was so sad to hear.

"I just wish that Lou Fa was able to see her grow up as well." Allen's smile didn't change, but his eyes reflected ones of a lost soul. Klaud couldn't help but pursed her lips before slowly looking back at the television.

"I'm sure she is extremely proud of what you've accomplished then until now." Klaud whispered before Allen raised his head, as if ignoring her and had started watching the news. Allen's eyes widened a bit at a familiar face on the screen before his smile changed immediately to a scowl.

"Oh great." Allen growled the words out from his clenched teeth as he watched the news. Klaud's curiosity perked at this.

"What's wrong?" Klaud asked, before turning to the screen and blinked blankly.

"Isn't that Sokaro's kid?"

"After I'm done with him, Sokaro will need a new one." Allen hissed as he stood up and switched off the television.

The people involved in his job seriously killed his good mood every SINGLE time.

................................................................................................................................................

"Congratulations, you will soon be here full time with the rate you're going." Allen mocked as he flipped through more paperwork that was sent in due to a certain youngster called Kanda Yuu.

"What on earth were you doing, being involved in a gang fight?" Allen asked, coughing to throw away any negative feelings as he eyed on the Japanese. Kanda didn't look at him at all. All he did was sitting on the couch opposite from Allen, glaring down heatedly as the floor. Allen stared at him for a while before closing his eyes slowly.

"Marie," Allen called out suddenly, causing Kanda to twitch in surprise, expecting the white haired male to call him instead. Marie's head popped out from the stack of papers. Judging from his expression, Marie too looked equally or even more surprised.

"Look after the mute. I got stuff to do now." Allen instructed as he got off the couch, placing the paperwork gently down onto the coffee table. Marie blinked. After a moment of silence while Allen was putting on his coat, Marie's eyes, though supposedly dead, sparkled a little before walking towards the couch Allen had just got off from, sitting down slowly as if a wrong move might destroy the entire couch.

Kanda didn't look very pleased at this at all. The fact that his face burnt an angry red due to Allen's mocking and then being treated like a child was the most humiliating thing he had ever had to bear with. He turned around so fast that if it weren't for his excellent sense of balance, he would have crashed into the table.

"How dare you treat me like this?! You are even younger than me for crying out loud!!!" Kanda charged at the seemingly calm boy. Just as his outstretched hand was a feet away from grabbing Allen's neck he was with strained by Marie's huge and muscular arms, holding him still from his underarms.

Kanda paused for a moment due to the abrupt stop at his goal from struggling the brat's neck till it snapped. When realization hit him that he was being held still by the brat's colleague, Kanda howled out in frustration and started to kick and trash out at Marie, who acted as if the attacks were ticklish, as he could be seen with a tiny smile and a soft chuckle escaping his lips.

"Really, Kanda. Is this how a senpai is supposed to act?" Allen walked over to the struggling teenager with his coat and scarf on and a briefcase in his hand. Kanda growled again at him and cursed him a few more times without a breath of air at all. He finally stopped, red now due to lack of air and exhaustion, but eyes shone with blue flames aiming at the younger.

Allen stared at Kanda for a moment. Now, the Japanese teenager was wondering will the counselor kept staring at him like that. It was beginning to get on his nerve very badly. Kanda twitched in anticipation when Allen narrowed his eyes like an eagle eying its prey as he took a step forward.

"You're injured." One of Kanda's eyebrows lifted up at Allen's comment. Well, OBVIOUSLY, that's what happen you get into a fight, isn't it? Kanda couldn't help but question the younger's profession. His mouth opened, about to mock Allen again when Allen's mouth beat him to it.

"A bit too injured for a guy with your reputation." Allen murmured under is breath, catching Kanda's attention. His eyes widen a bit at the elder's reaction before it went back to normal with a hum from his throat.

"You will be doing the work Marie is assigning to you till I get back. Till then, behave." Allen said to the still teen before nodding a goodbye at Marie before exiting out of the office.

"Please Kanda-kun, have a seat. You need a lot of rest before you start doing the jobs I am about to pass you." The blind man said gently to Kanda, setting him down like he was breakable doll and leading him to the couch. Kanda still in a stunned state snapped out of his trance state when he felt the couch softness on his bottom. He jumped like a cat which was trying to escape water. Marie remained calm as Kanda turned his head left to right frantically, as if he wasn't aware that Allen had already left the room.

"Where did that…that…that BEANSPROUT went to?!" Kanda snapped at Marie when he had finally acknowledged his presence. Marie shrugged and pushed Kanda back onto the couch. Kanda was about to get up again when Marie glared at him.

"SIT." Marie boomed at Kanda, who quickly went back down with a scowl. Satisfied with the result, Marie smiled at Kanda one last time before heading back to his seat. But who said everyone in the room was satisfied?

"Why do you listen to him?" Marie stopped and turned to the still scowling teen, now has crossed his arms and was glaring heatedly at an imaginary spot on the floor. His glare reflected his anger that was growing continuously by the second as he thought of the white haired counselor.

"That brat is younger than you. He is working UNDER you. Yet here he is, like a boss, ordering and disrespecting people older. Who made him boss? Who said he had the right?" Kanda growled and clenched his jeans. Marie could almost imagine a teenager producing fire on the ground from his anger.

"Allen is my boss because he just is." Kanda blinked in confusion from Marie's answer. Marie nodded, as if confirming what Kanda had heard was true. "If you are under him, you have nothing to worry about."

Kanda snorted.

"What can he do?" Marie's seemingly dead looking eyes twinkled. Kanda's eyes twitched at that.

"He just can."

………………………………………………………………………………………………

Lavi twitched. Then he twitched again. A smiling counselor with white hair was standing at his doorstep, with a bunch of half beaten security guards behind him, making a trail from the gate of the mansion to the steps of the mansion, a full five kilometers long.

"I thought my counseling was tomorrow." Lavi said in a accusing tone as Allen took his hand and pulled him along with him.

"Well, I did say it would be tomorrow is anything were to come up. But guess what?"

"Something did……"

"Bingo!" Allen winked at the rich teen, who groaned miserably as they walked over the bodyguards and out of the gate. For once, Lavi couldn't help but feel pitiful to them, who he had made fun of and bullied and caused panic onto since the day he was born.

Maybe he should start treating them nicer?

Nah, nice is overrated.

"So what was this something that has suddenly come up?" Lavi asked as he sidestepped the final guard and walked casually out of his gate, listening to the metal clinked shut behind him as he as still led by the younger.

Lavi was ok with the hand holding, mostly because he wasn't really paying attention to it. However, when they reached the main road, he started to be more self aware, with people whispering and girls whispering as they pass by them.

"You mind if I can have my hand back?" Lavi asked as he attempted to pull his hand out of Allen's grip but failed. Really, he has control over Lavi's freedom wasn't enough, he owned him in strength too. What's next? His life?

And now Lavi wished he could have taken that thought back very badly.

"I hate you. I hate you very, VERY, much." Lavi hissed at the smirking brat as he was made to hand out some of his pocket money to a bunch of gangsters.

"I own you till your counseling is still over so too bad." Allen whispered with a smile still plastered on his face. He then turn back to the gangsters, who were looking really please with the free money they have just earned, or so they thought.

Lavi was confused. He was in shock. No, he was officially freaked. Did he blacked out or something? Because he remembered he had all his pocket money given away to a bunch of gangsters and the next thing he knew, his pocket money was handed back to him and Allen had the head in a arm lock against the wall while the others led cowardly.

"What the hell~" The head was about to cursed but was cut off when Allen slammed him harder against the wall.

"Tell me what you know about yesterday's gang fight." Allen growled as he pulled his head back to look at him eye to eye.

Lavi stared at the scene before him. He knew Allen was scary but not to this extend. Who was Allen anyway?

The gangster blinked out of his daze of being slammed by the head against the wall several times. He was about to roar in outrage at the younger when he paused, his face reflecting something that could be descirbed as realization.

Lavi watched, curious as the gangster's face changed from uncontrollable anger and pure bleach white fear. Lavi looked at Allen's face. Nope, no change in any way of the younger's face being what it was when he slammed him against the wall. So why was he being so afraid of?

"I'm glad you realized who you are dealing with," Allen whispered cheerfully into the gangster's ears. As if his words were dripping with poisonous venom, the gangster whimpered and struggled like a crazy man. Lavi swore he saw Allen's eyes twinkled as he gently tilted the man's head up by his chin, the man let out a small terrified scream of surprise when his eyes met Allen's greyish blue eyes. "Now," Allen whispered even more gently but the shadows casting on his face made the gangster fear him more, a living image of the devil tempting his victims into their arms.

"Sokaro's gang got ambushed by Cross's gang!!! Some kind of territorial fight!!! Both group had to retreat because they were too equally matched and there were too many casualities!!! That's all I know!!! I swear!!!" The man blabbed out like he was vomitting out after a massve roller coaster ride. "Let me go!!! Please!!!"

"Ok then."Allen said with a nod but he tilted the man's face closer to his. "However, remember this talk of ours is a secret ok? So sssssssshhhhhhhhh......." Allen sheeshed and that finally made the gangster snapped in fear as he pushed Allen aside and ran, crying and screaming like a coward.

Lavi continued to stare at Allen who dusted himself before he walked past Lavi.

"Thanks Lavi, you may go now." Lavi's eyes shut and snapped open quickly as if he was in a trance that had just been broken. He spun around to se Allen turning a corner. Lavi's heartbeats quickened when he saw that look on Allen's face before he disappeared from his sight.

It reflected determination, strength, authority and was it a bit of anger? Lavi leaned against the wall and breathed in deeply. What is this overwhelming feeling he was feeling now? His heart was beating so hard he was afraid that it will pound itself out of its ribcage.

Was it fear?

No, he was not afraid, there was no cold sweat. He brought his hands up to check. His knees were threatening a little to buckle but he didn't feel like wetting his pants.

Lavi's eyes snapped open, wider then before. He remembered now. This feeling. The feeling he had when he was around his grandfather and , there was no mistake about it.

It was awe.

Lavi turned to where Allen had disappeared to. He pushed himself off the wall. He started to laugh, it was funny. He thought coming to this dot of a country was going to be boring, it was going to be the black mark of his life. But it seemed that this country has given him an unexpected surprise.

And Lavi happily welcomes the unexpected with open arms.
