Family

Chapter 1: Tears Shed

Sitting on the cold grounds of the graveyard was a little boy not older than ten years old. Besides the boy was a cross made out of stone and a name 'Mana Walker' engraved on it. The little boy's bangs were covering his face hiding his stormy grey eyes that was dull as if his life was slowly draining from him. If you look closely to the boy, he looked like a broken lifeless puppet whose strings were cut.

"Mana…" he whispered.

Tears begun to flow from the lil boy's eyes, he wanted the tears to stop but he can't control himself from crying. He cried and cried. On this very ground where the stone cross stood; lies a man, a very special person of the little boy. You could say that the man was his real father to him even if they were not related by blood. He was the boy's only family. The boy's biological family, he believed, that they abandoned him because of his left deformed arm, the town's people see him as a spawn from hell, a demon and people treated him like he was an abomination and a monster. . .

Except for Mana Walker, yes, he was different from those evil people, he was nice and kind. The boy met him in a circus and gave him a chance to travel with him. Mana treated him as a human being, he ignored his deformity; he treated him as a normal boy; he gave him a name, he gave him the love of a parent that every child deserved, he thought him how to make a living by circus performances, magic tricks and clown antics. They traveled everywhere and saw the world's beautiful wonders. Even if they don't have a home because of the lack of money, the boy didn't mind at all. Mana was his home. He doesn't care if they were sleeping on the streets. As long as he was with Mana… he doesn't care… For once of his entire life, he was glad he was born.

Before Mana passed away, leaving him alone in the cruel dark world. It was a snowy evening that day, he and Mana were walking down the street and they didn't notice an out of control carriage on their way. When someone shouted to their direction, Mana immediately carried him and threw him out of the way, leaving him, be the one who suffered the cruel fate.

"No matter what happens, keep moving forward"

The boy continued crying…

"Good Evening, Little Boy~"

The boy looked up on the side and saw a blurry man with a wide grin on his face. "What seems to be the matter boy, why are you crying?" the man asked with curiosity on his tone.

He wiped the tears on his eyes and looked at the man again. "W-w-who are you mister?" the little boy asked. The man with the wide grin looked at the boy in the eyes.

"Oh, how rude of me" the man put his right hand on his chest and bowed a little in front of the boy. "I'm the Millennium Earl, child" he answered. The boy stared and stayed quiet. For some reason, he felt that he knew this man from somewhere.

"Now tell me, why are you sad and all alone from this cold place?" The Earl said with concern for the little boy. The boy looked away and said, "M-my father… he's g-gone, Mr. Earl…. M-Mana…" the boy begun to cry once again.

The Earl patted the boy's shoulder. "Don't cry little one, don't cry" The boy still continued to cry.

"Say child, would you like me to revive Mana for you?" Those words made the boy surprised. He wiped his tears and looked at the Earl "Revive Mana?" he said with a dark of sparkle of hope on his eyes. The man nodded.

"I can revive him for you, but I need your cooperation~" he said to him.

The Earl looked at the empty spot on the graveyard then snapped his fingers. From the ground, a black skeleton like form with sharp blades on its arms appeared. The boy looked at it and looked at the Earl. "That my boy is a vessel that will help hold your father's soul and all you have to do is to call out his name with all of your heart and I will do the rest~"

The boy stood and slowly walked closer to the skeleton like figure. This was his chance to be with his foster father again. He breathed in and shouted with all of his might and heart

"MANA!"

As he called out, a purple lightning struck the black skeleton and a purple string write on its forehead "Mana". The Earl watched at the side lines, waiting for what will happen next. As the black skeleton like figure twitched, the boy slowly approached it with a smile on his face. "Mana!" he was about to hug it when suddenly it screamed "WHY DID YOU TURN ME INTO AN AKUMA, ALLEN?!"

The boy backed away and looked at Mana with confusion with a hint of fear on his eyes. "M-Mana?" the boy said shakily. In the blink of an eye, He went after him and sliced the half of his face. "I curse you, Allen!" it shouted. The boy, Allen, didn't move at all. In his mind, maybe Mana was mad at him because maybe he disturbed Mana's peace?

He doesn't have the will to defend himself. It was his entire fault. Mana was mad at him…

"I'm sorry Mana… I'm sorry…"

As if time slowed down, the boy heard a gunshot and when he looked at the skeleton or Mana, he disintegrated into purple dust in front of his eyes. This made the boy in the state of shock, he saw Mana again die in front of his very eyes.

"MANA!" he screamed in agony. It was his entire fault, all his fault. He slowly reached for the purple dust trying to hold on it, thinking that maybe he could at least save Mana. The purple dust disappeared and when little Allen looked at his hand. All he could see was nothing. Tears rolled on his face. He clutched the ground and screamed again. "MANA!" he shouted.

The Earl looked at to where the gunshot originated from and saw a man dressed in a black jacket with golden trimmings on the side; reloaded his gun.

"It's been a while, General Cross~ what brings you here?" The Earl asked.

The man, known as General Cross, pulled out a cigarette and lit it. "To save that kid and kill you, fatso, what else am I here for?" Cross readied his gun and pointed it at the Earl. "Judgement" the gun begun to light dim green and the man pulled the trigger.

"BANG"

Little Allen stood up, he could only hear his heartbeat alone, the world around him became mute. He couldn't hear the rustle of the wind, he couldn't even hear the gunshot. All he could hear was his inner thoughts of fury. His silver eyes were full of rage. "HOW DARE YOU!" Allen shouted. Deep inside as if it was like instinct, he wanted to kill the one who shot Mana.

Then, there was a huge explosion of light.

The man, General Cross covered his eyes and when the flash of light died down; he opened them and saw no other than the boy, standing in front of the Earl. The bullet he just used was flying in midair, as if something like a barrier stopped the bullet.

The Earl on the other hand was shocked at the boy's action. Then he noticed something familiar, he had the feeling like the boy was family. He then witnessed a transformation on the boy. The boy's cream skin was slowly turned into ashen grey.

General Cross cursed. Then the boy, Allen, dashed and attacked him. He blocked every kicks and punches from the boy and he could clearly see so much rage from his eyes.

"HOW DARE YOU KILL MANA!" The boy repeated those exact words over and over again. Cross needed to control the situation; he jumped at the punch and pointed the gun on the boy's head. "Rest for a bit" then bang. The boy then fell unconscious and hit the ground with a thud.

When Cross pointed the gun to where the Earl was. The Earl disappeared and when he looked at his back, there was the Earl, holding the unconscious boy on his arms.

"I would like to stay and play with you Cross but I don't have time~" A heart shape like door appeared behind the Earl and it slowly opened. "Till we meet again~"

Cross fired shots as many gunshots as possible but it was already too late, the door closed and disappeared out of sight.

"Shit" Cross muttered under his breath.
