Disclaimer: I do not own D Gray-Man

AN: Hello! Yes, I have begun a new fic...because I was inspired, I just had to write something! I don't know if I should keep writing the story, but if it gets positive feedback, I will. It's ridiculously fun to write anyway :D Like I said in the summary, there won't be any pairings, though I'm not one hundred percent set on that yet. I hope you enjoy.


"Ah, Kanda! Welcome back!"Komui greeted the agitated looking swordsman heartily. He nodded and immediately turned around after handing in the mission report. He had been gone for months, tracking a dead end and he was annoyed as hell.

"Oh, by the way Kanda, there's probably something you should know before you leave." Komui called out cheerfully. Kanda stopped, angling his body slightly to indicate he was listening.

"You and Allen are parents." Komui gave a wide grin. Kanda blinked and slowly absorbed what was just said.

No, I must have heard wrong.

I must have.

"What did you just say?" Kanda forced through gritted teeth, swivelling around to face him fully.

"Parents. You and Allen are parents, to a healthy girl!" Komui leaned back on his chair comfortably.

"No."

"Yes."

"No."

"Yes. In fact, they should be arriving….now!"

The door opened with a creak and Allen peeked around the corner.

"Hey Komui! Kanda." Allen greeted cheerfully, walking into the room. Kanda's eyes widened as a young girl followed him, no more than six years old, trotted in after him with a tight grip on his shirt.

She had long black hair that trailed down to her thighs but she had unmistakeable silver grey eyes, the same ones as Allen's. She wore black tights and a blue dress, small flats on her feet. She had a happy smile on her face and an adoring expression as she looked at Allen.

"Come on, Ayu, say hello to your other father!" Komui said brightly, gesturing to Kanda. Kanda strode over and immediately pointed his katana at Komui.

"You have ten seconds to explain." He glared, hand almost shaking with fury.

"N-now, just calm down-"

"Daddy!"A gleeful squeal came from behind him and a shiver ran up his spine as tiny arms wrapped around his leg. He looked down slowly and froze as he met eyes with the bright silver ones. She had an adoring expression almost identical to the one she had regarded Allen with.

"It's touching me." He stared at her.

"She's not an 'it', stupid Kanda." Allen glared at him.

"I don't care, just get it off me."

"Now, now, let's just all sit down and we can explain, Kanda." Komui squeezed between them cheerfully and gestured to the couch.

"Ayu-chan, let go of Kanda for now." Komui coaxed.

"Dadda, does other daddy hate me?" The girl tugged on Allen's vest.

"It's okay, daddy doesn't hate you, daddy hates everyone." Allen said with a beaming face, patting her on the head. She pouted and crawled onto the couch beside Allen. Kanda grudgingly sat down away from the two, crossing his arms tersely.

"So, this started a couple months ago-"Komui began.

Fidget.

"-When you came back with the innocence-"

Fidget. The girl wiggled slowly over to Allen, sneaking glances at him needily.

"-That you retrieved from-"

Fidget.

"Ayu-chan…" Allen sighed, holding out his arms. Her face lit up and she jumped onto his lap, snuggling into his chest and playing with the ribbon around his neck.

"As I was saying, you came back with the innocence…."

Six months before:

"I have it." Kanda strode into Komui's office and placed an orb like luminescent egg on his desk.

"Welcome back, Kanda! Well done on retrieving the innocence!" Komui stood up, looking closely at it. Kanda's face had a small cut along it, and a single drop blood dripped down and landed on the egg. The cut had already been healing, and only that drop escaped.

"Hm? What happened?" Komui grabbed a tissue to wipe it away, but was surprised to see it was not there anymore.

Oh, I guess it didn't land on the innocence….

"Che. That troublesome woman tripped while holding a tray of plates. I couldn't be bothered dodging it."

"You shouldn't be so flippant just because you heal faster. You should still take care of your body." Komui scolded.

"Whatever."Kanda strode out of the room.

"Thanks for your hard work."

A month after that:

"Hello! Is something the matter?" Allen walked into Komui's messy office, glancing around.

"Ah, Allen! No, I was just wondering if you could deliver this to Hevlaska for me." Komui waved from behind a tower of paper work on his desk. Allen carefully inched his way through the precarious stacks and piles of mess, knowing just brushing one could end in a potential paper avalanche.

Komui handed him a round, glowing ball and he held it carefully.

"The innocence Kanda bought back is quite curious, I've been studying it for a while, but it's time to ask Hevlaska."

Allen stared at it curiously, too engrossed in the innocence to notice what he was stepping back onto. He knocked a stack of papers and a flurry of paper came collapsing down.

"Ah!" He fell under the stack, knowing it was better to wait until it was finished before trying to get out. A sharp pain sliced through his finger as he held a hand up to stop the paper from piling around his head.

He burst through the paper and looked at his finger, which was bleeding from a paper cut. Before he could stop it, a drop of blood welled up and dripped onto the ball. It soaked into it like a sponge, and instantly the ball began to glow even more furiously, the colours swirling around inside.

"Uh, Komui! You should probably…" He started to panic as wind began to pick up around the ball.

"Allen? What's going on?" He could hear Komui's voice in the distance.

"I have no idea!"

The ball started to change shape and texture and in a blinding flash of light, turned into a…..a….

Baby?

Paper fluttered around him as the wind died down and Komui came into view again.

"Allen! Are you alright-"He ran over and immediately froze as he saw the baby that was beginning to cry in Allen's hands. "Did you just…give birth?"

"OF COURSE NOT! YOU KNOW I DIDN'T!" Allen yelled.


"It appears…this child is…in a sense…an exorcist." Hevlaska cradled the crying baby with her silver tendrils.

"What…how…what do you mean, Hevlaska?" Komui adjusted his glasses in a flustered manner.

"This…baby…was…constructed…by innocence….using the information…from two separate sources. DNA, like…normal babies. She is…made to fight. Furthermore, the DNA was from…two exorcists…her body…is ideal. She is not…merely an accommodator for innocence. She is a being…made from innocence. She is growing…as we speak…her growth will be rapid…until she reaches the age…for maximum fighting…potential…" Hevlaska slowly lowered her, placing her back in Allen's arms.

"Hm…oh, the blood! Of course! Thank you, Hevlaska." The elevator slowly ascended the levels and there was a stony silence.

"So…congratulations, Allen. It's a healthy baby girl." Komui smiled brightly as he stuck his hand out to shake Allen's hand and immediately used his clip board to block a furious punch. It crippled the clip board, and Allen glowered as he held the baby with one hand.

"Why did you keep something like that on your desk?"

"Well, I didn't know at the time, did I?" Komui shrugged.

"I'm too young to be a parent…" Allen moaned, slumping over.

"So that's what you're really angry about…"

Current:

"And that's how little Ayu came to be. You happened to be on another mission, Kanda, and seeing as you just came back now, and she ages so quickly, she's already about five. Your DNA and Allen's were combined by the innocence to form this child. It's a miracle!" Komui said happily. Kanda had been frozen the entire time and now he slowly turned to look at Komui.

"You're saying…because I just happened to bleed on the innocence…and bean sprout did too…this..."He glanced at the girl who had fallen asleep, and was now nestled in Allen's lap.

"Thing was created by it?"

"Ayu, her name is Ayu, stupid Kanda!" Allen said in annoyance.

They named her 'beautiful'…..?

"We took a long time to decide her name…especially since it took Allen so long to come around…I suggested Lenalee!"

"Johnny said Tup, Lenalee said Hua, but in the end it was Lavi who came up with Ayu," Allen said.

"We thought it was good, seeing as it was a Japanese name…"

"But apparently Lavi was just mixing your two first names together." Komui laughed. But Kanda was in no laughing mood. The door slammed open excitedly and Lavi bounced in. It didn't help at all.

"Yo! I heard Yu-chan came back! I wanted to see his face when you told him-oh, hey Yu!" Lavi waved cheerfully. Ayu woke up and blinked sleepily, but when she caught sight of Lavi, her face lit up.

"Wavi-nii!" She scrambled up over Allen's head and leaped off it into Lavi's arms.

"A-chan! How's meeting your daddy?" Lavi grinned.

"I am not that midget's parent. Especially not her-"Kanda growled, not even wanting to say it.

"Iss not going well. Maybe if I talked to him more?" Ayu looked at him hopefully. Kanda just looked away promptly, gritting his teeth.

"Stupid Kanda, stop being so mean! Accept your responsibilities as a parent, she is half you! When I'm not here, you have to take care of her!" Allen got up, standing in front of him steadfastly.

"I don't have to have anything to do with her. There are other people in this place, they can take care of her." Kanda tried to push Allen out of the way, but he wouldn't budge.

"She is your responsibility as well. Accept it." Allen glared back at him, and his very thin patience snapped.

"Get out of the way. Now." Kanda glowered at him.

"A-chan, wanna go play outside?" Lavi quickly said.

"But…"

"We can go eat first!" Lavi smiled and Ayu instantly perked up.

"Yay! Go! Go!" She bounced off him, running out the door with Lavi following close behind.

"I'm not moving until you say you'll look after her as well. As a parent."

Kanda suddenly grabbed Allen's collar and hurled him into the wall opposite, needing a place to let out his anger. Allen hit the wall hard and bits of the wall came crumbling down.

"Kanda! Allen's just trying-"

"No, it's alright, Komui."Allen coughed and stumbled up and waved his hand to clear the rubble, rubbing his back with the other. "That's just his way of saying yes. Right, stupid Kanda?"

Kanda clenched his fists and looked away angrily.

"Che. I'm not going to be that kid's good parent."He slammed the door open and angrily walked out.

"That didn't sound like a yes…" Komui sighed.

"He just said he's not going to be her good parent. He never said he wasn't going to be one." Allen shrugged, dusting himself off.

"Higher!" A gleeful cry came from outside and Allen turned to see Ayu and Lavi fly past the window on his hammer.

"Damn that Lavi! How many times do I have to tell them not to be so reckless?" Allen ran out the room. Komui was left alone to survey the damage of the wall. He sighed and sat back down in his chair.

"It certainly has been very lively lately."

Komui had been wondering for a long time how Kanda would react to this situation. So far, his predictions had been quite accurate. Kanda had a rough childhood, growing up with virtually no parents and only one friend. The scientists had been kind to him, but Kanda…well, with that personality…and what they did to him…Kanda didn't exactly have pleasant memories, how would he treat his own 'child'?

Does Kanda even know how children are made?


AN: Um, right! Well, Ayu calls Lavi 'Wavi', it's just because of her child talk, same with 'iss' and so on. Well, I hope you enjoyed, thanks for reading.
